Published: February 2024

Esta pesquisa está sendo elaborada e estruturada para atender escolas públicas municipais de Linhares-ES e demais instituições que tenham interesse em inserir a Robótica Educacional como recurso para o desenvolvimento do pensamento geométrico. Ainda em fase inicial, as investigações partem do seguinte questionamento: Como o pensamento geométrico é revelado por meio de movimentos do corpo em práticas investigativas com uso da robótica? O tema será abordado no contexto da Teoria da Cognição Corporificada, cujos pressupostos teóricos são baseados no fato de que o cérebro e o restante do corpo são conjuntamente responsáveis pelas operações fisiológicas denominadas como mente. Serão realizadas atividades de cunho investigativo, tendo a robótica como recurso pedagógico. Nosso objetivo geral é: analisar o desenvolvimento do pensamento geométrico por meio de movimentos do corpo durante a realização de atividades investigativas com uso da robótica. A pesquisa é qualitativa de abordagem interpretativa e exploratória, e sua construção visa à elaboração, análise e reestruturação de um produto educacional, parte integrante do processo, que será materializado em formato de um livro para que professores possam desenvolver as atividades de robótica com os estudantes dos anos finais do ensino fundamental. Assim, a partir desse recorte esperamos contribuir para reflexões surgidas e voltadas à aprendizagem de matemática e o desenvolvimento do Pensamento Geométrico dentro da Educação Matemática.

Lieber Pat ...
Authors: Groddeck Georg
Published: February 2024

Die Familie Groddeck verstand sich als verschworene Gemeinschaft: Man unterstützte einander, intrigierte und stritt sich; wenn es jedoch darauf ankam, hielt man zusammen, war man eine Familie. Das funktionierte alles nur, weil es klare familiäre Hierarchien gab. Die vier Söhne Carl, Hans, Wolfram und Georg, in der Familie »Pat« genannt, kamen – das war ein Privileg – ins Internat Schulpforta. Die Tochter Caroline erfuhr dagegen wenig Unterstützung, sie musste sich alles selbst aneignen. Nach dem Tod des Vaters und Patriarchen Carl Theodor Groddeck stand der erstgeborene Sohn Carl eine Weile an der Spitze der Familie. Als Chefredakteur der freikonservativen Zeitung Die Post verdiente er das Geld, von dem er einen Teil an die Geschwister weitergab. Die Briefe zwischen ihm und seinem Bruder Georg bilden den Mittelpunkt des Bandes. Am Ende des Briefwechsels steht Georg Groddeck allein auf der Bühne: Die Eltern sind gestorben, ebenso seine Geschwister. Er hatte sich als Sanatoriumsarzt etabliert, was ihm aber wirklich am Herzen lag, war die Schriftstellerei. Sechs Jahre später, im Mai 1917, wird er sich bei Sigmund Freud melden.

Published: February 2024

The main sense of the preventive physical and rehabilitation medicine (PRM) strategy is the development and implementation of medical and social projects, which are based on certain backgrounds, principles, tasks and strategies.
The purpose of a quality life formation is to promote the achievement of well-being and health at all levels and for all persons and the main mechanisms of its formation are the creation of conditions for individuals, groups of people, communities and a positive impact on health problems.
The disease and its consequences, which disturb the necessary balance of medical, psychological and social components, lead to a change in the quality of a person’s life, to his partial or complete isolation from social life, which causes social disintegration.
This necessitates the development and implementation in the health care system of Ukraine of promising preventive rehabilitation/habilitation technologies to improve the quality of life, which includes a person’s assessment of his physical, mental and social well-being.
The article deals with modern views on preventive PRM as a disease prevention strategy, which includes the technology and organization of diagnostic and health-improving methods. The modern PRM strategy is determined by the priority of the systemic approach, the use of biopsychosocial models, the focus on the personalization of the individual, and provides for changes in the basic paradigm of the implementation and assessment of rehabilitation measures. Modern technologies in education and training have a positive impact on health promotion, rehabilitation and prevention, medical diagnosis, functional assessment, treatment and rehabilitation management for persons of any age who have experienced limitations in daily functioning due to health conditions.
Preventive PRM is person- and functioning-oriented (as opposed to organ- and disease-oriented specialties or specialties that focus on specific age groups) and aims to improve activity, quality of life, improve healthy behaviors, and promote the positive influence of personal and environmental factors on functioning.
Preventive PRM allows to manage person’s health. A person does not passively learn about the state of his health, but with the help of modern rehabilitation diagnostic technologies, a multidisciplinary approach, information support, specialists capable of implementing a complex of rehabilitation technologies, gets to know his body, understands what negatively affects his health, and which improves him, and most importantly, learns to manage these processes by himself.

Authors: Marushko Yurii , Halushko Bogdan
Published: February 2024

The objective: to study the effectiveness of allergen-specific immunotherapy (ASIT) in children with persistent allergic rhinitis (AR) and sensitization to house dust mite (HDM) allergens using allergens administered subcutaneously.
Materials and methods. The study involved 149 children aged 5 to 17 years with AR and combined AR with bronchial asthma (BA), who were sensitized to HDM allergens, and who underwent clinical anamnestic and laboratory examination. All examined patients (89 (59.7%) boys and 60 (40.3%) girls) were divided into two groups. The first group included children who received basic therapy in combination with ASIT. The second group includes patients who received only basic AR therapy.
Molecular component immunoenzymatic analysis of venous blood with the ALEX2 test system (Macro Array Diagnostics GmbH, Austria) was used to determine the profile of sensitization to HDM allergens. Sensitization to HDM allergens is established in case of detection of specific IgE levels above 0.3 kUA/L to HDM allergen molecules. Basic AR therapy included three treatment steps.
Results. In children with persistent AR and sensitization to HDM allergens, during ACIT and basic therapy, positive dynamics of the severity of the main complaints according to the VAS scale were determined, starting from the 6th month of treatment. After 24 months of treatment a statistically significant (p<0.05) decrease in the severity of the main complaints was found in patients who received ASIT compared to the group with patients were prescribed only basic therapy.
Conclusions. The results of the conducted research indicate the high efficiency of the use of highly polymerized extracts of allergens adsorbed on aluminum hydroxide gel for ASIT, in combination with basic therapy and measures to eradicate allergens of HDM.
A Clinical Case of Atrial Fibrillation on Background of Coronary Heart Disease and Comorbid Pathology. Justification of the Diagnosis and Treatment in Accordance with Modern Recommendations (Materials for informal learning)
Authors: Tkachenko Viktoriia
Published: February 2024

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common heart rhythm disorder encountered in clinical practice, but its diagnosis, prevention and treatment, especially on the background of comorbid conditions, cause difficulties.
The objective – to present a clinical case of atrial fibrillation on the background of coronary heart disease and comorbid pathology, to substantiate the diagnosis and treatment scheme in accordance with modern recommendations.
Materials and methods. Analysis of the patient’s medical history, anamnesis data, clinical and laboratory-instrumental examination, analysis of modern international and national guidelines, structural and logical analysis and the bibliosemantic research method were used.
Results. A clinical case of a patient with newly diagnosed permanent AF is described. AF is caused by coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, post-infarction cardiosclerosis, complicated by heart failure with a preserved ejection fraction on the background of dyslipidemia, arterial hypertension, chronic kidney disease.
Establishing a diagnosis according to modern recommendations and developing a treatment regimen in accordance with ESC, international and national guidelines is substantiated. AF treatment tactics are based on the ABC Pathway (Atrial fibrillation Better Care) approach: anticoagulant therapy / stroke prevention, better symptom control, control of comorbidities and risk factors.
Conclusions. The right diagnosis and systematic screening of atrial fibrillation, stroke risk assessment and control are especially important for patients aged ≥65 years for better patient prognosis. The ABC approach should be followed in the treatment of AF.

Published: February 2024

Spinal dural arteriovenous fistulas (SDAVFs) are the most common vascular malformation of the spinal cord. However, they remain an undiagnosed pathology and, in case of untimely treatment cause significant disability. SDAVFs can debut with urination disorders, erectile dysfunction, and mimic different pathologies. At the same time, the vast majority of cases are difficult to diagnose. The urological aspects of SDAVFs are important for proper evaluation and management of patients with urological disorders.
The objective: to analyze the urological disorders in patients with spinal dural arteriovenous fistulas and their course after surgical treatment.
Materials and methods. From June 2009 to January 2023, 67 patients with arteriovenous malformations of the spinal cord were surgically treated at the SI «Research and Practical Center for Endovascular Neuroradiology of the National Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine». 44 (65.7%) patients were diagnosed with SDAVFs (arteriovenous malformations of the spinal cord type I according to Anson–Spetzler). Among the studied group were 30 (68.2%) men and 14 (31.8%) women aged 32–67 years (average age – 59.6 years).
Treatment options for SDAVFs included endovascular embolization, microsurgical debridement, or their combination. A modified Aminoff–Logue scale was used to compare clinical results before and after treatment.
After treatment, patients were divided into three categories: patient’s condition was improved, patient’s condition remained unchanged, or worsened.
Results. As a result of the study, it was established that SDAVFs of the cervical spine was diagnosed in 6 (13.6%) patients, thoracic one – in 20 (61.9%), lumbar – 15 (21.1%), and sacrum – 3 (6.8%).
The main initial symptoms of SDAVFs were gait disturbances, sensory disturbances, and paresthesias. The most common symptoms at the time of the final diagnosis were urination disorders in 36 (81.8%) patients, paraparesis – in 37 (84.1%), sensitivity disorders – in 30 (68.1%), defecation problems – in 17 (38.6%), pain in the back and legs – in 21 (47.8%) patients, erectile dysfunction – in 11 (25.0%) patients.
After the total separation of the fistula, a favorable clinical result was observed in 31 (93.9%) of 33 patients. Improvement of urinary problems and erectile dysfunction was determined in 19 (52.7%) patients. Residual symptoms were found in 17 (47.3%) patients.
Conclusions. Early intervention and elimination of pathologic arteriovenous shunting is necessary for neurological improvement in patients with SDAVFs, but urination disorders persist in half of patients even after successful treatment.

Published: February 2024

As the demand for acquiring Information communication and technology has increased rapidly due to the exponential growth of technological advancement in all human endeavor, researchers are also developing theories and/or models that could be used to describe and prognosticate humans’ espousal and use of these technologies as they are being released in the markets. The present study adapted one of the powerful models for information and communication technology (ICT) integration (thus, unified theory of acceptance and technology use) to assess pre-tertiary mathematics facilitators’ intentions and actual use of ICT for mathematics instructions in Ghana. This study adopts a quantitative research approach with a questionnaire as a survey instrument for collecting 185 valid data from both junior and senior high schools’ mathematics facilitators. Descriptive statistics and an enter multiple regression were deployed to validate the proposed research questions. Using SPPS v.23 as a statistical software for analyzing the data, the result reveals that, performance expectancy, and effort expectancy had a positive and significant effect on mathematics facilitators’ intentions toward ICT adoption. Moreover, social influence was significant but had a negative impact on facilitators intentions. The impact of mathematics facilitators’ intention to use ICT and the facilitating conditions (FCs) within the school environment was also a positive and significant predictor of facilitators’ ICT use behavior. It was concluded from the findings that FCs were the better predictor for mathematics teachers’ ICT use behavior than intention. Hence, the researchers recommended that more government expenditure must be allocated to infrastructures that would improve the use of ICT as well as frequent ICT training must be undertaken to enrich teachers’ knowledge in the affordance of using ICT in mathematics classrooms.

Invisible Policy Brokers: The Political Roles of Interpreters in Educational Policy Negotiations With Language Minoritized Mothers
Authors: Stephens Crissa
Published: February 2024

Educational interpreters are not neutral mediators of messages. In education, they are policy brokers whose translations can reflect their own social identities and often align with larger social power dynamics, including deficit perspectives of racialized multilingual people. In U.S. schools, language minoritized parents have the right to make decisions about their children’s education; yet current theory does not account for their power to shape educational policies—or the political roles of interpreters who represent their negotiations. I propose a theory of interpreters as invisible policy brokers and identity mediators. I employ an approach that centers the questions and agency of newly arrived, predominantly Spanish-speaking mothers in a Midwest school district with growing demographics of language minoritized students.
The Mismatch Between World Bank Actions and the Decentralization of Educational Systems in LMICs
Authors: Hossain Mobarak
Published: February 2024

The World Bank’s (WB) growing emphasis on decentralizing educational systems has sparked widespread discussion in the literature. This study examines whether WB reforms are indeed associated with decentralizing educational systems in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), as commonly assumed. Using unique, untapped country-level panel data on 30 LMICs from 1990 to 2019, I do not find a significant association between the WB’s actions and changes observed in educational systems. Employing the institutional logics perspective, I argue that the WB’s diffusion of “homogeneous” educational reforms may clash with “heterogeneous” socioeconomic, political, and cultural contexts, thus hindering the direct translation of reforms into tangible outcomes on the ground.

Published: February 2024

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the distribution and frequency of skin diseases in geriatric age group, as well as the variation of this frequency according to age, sex, and season.

Methods: Data from 1039 geriatric patients admitted to dermatology clinic between January 1, 2022 and January 1,2023 were retrospectively analysed according to sex, age and seasons.

Results: The five most frequently observed disease groups in elderly patients were eczematous dermatitis (22.4%), fungal infections (14.4%), infestations (10.1%), pruritus (6.9%), and premalignant skin lesions (6.4%). The most common five dermatologic diseases in all patients were contact dermatitis (11.16%), scabies (8%), tinea ungium (6.8%), actinic keratosis (6.1%), and generalized pruritus (6.1%), respectively. Generalized pruritus was significantly less frequent in the 65-74 age group compared with the other two groups (p
Exploring the effects of age and sex on sensory sensitivities in middle and older aged autistic adults
Authors: Charlton Rebecca Ann , McQuaid Goldie , Wallace Gregory
Published: February 2024

Purpose: Although sensory sensitivities are common among autistic people, few studies have explored how they may be impacted by ageing. Little is known about the experiences of autistic people across adulthood or about the experiences of people assigned female-at-birth. Some results suggest that people assigned female-at-birth report more sensory sensitivities, but little is known about experiences in middle-aged and older people assigned female-at-birth.Methods: This study explored self-reported sensory sensitivities and sensory acuity in 210 autistic people aged 42-80 years old. Associations between age and sensory sensitivities were examined using correlational and regression analyses, and t-tests explored differences in sex-assigned -at-birth. Results: No significant correlation was observed between age and sensory sensitivities, although older age was associated with poorer sensory acuity. Poorer acuity in vision and hearing was associated with more sensory sensitivities. People assigned female-at-birth reported higher scores for overall sensory sensitivities and low temperature pain tolerance. Sex-assigned-at-birth and sensory acuity contributed significantly to a regression model explaining overall sensory sensitivity, but age did not contribute significantly. Conclusion: This cross-sectional study suggests that sensory sensitivities are stable across middle-age and older adulthood. Results contrast with previous studies in young adults which have suggested reduction in sensory sensitivities with age. In keeping with studies of younger people, people assigned-female-at-birth report higher rates of sensory sensitivities than people assigned-male-at-birth. If further studies examining individual change in sensory sensitives replicate these results, then they may contribute to understanding care needs of autistic older people.
Statistical learning and reading: Visual regularities support affix detection in children aged 6 to 11
Authors: Ktori Maria , Lelonkiewicz Jaroslaw Roman , Crepaldi Davide
Published: February 2024

We examined the role of visual statistical learning in the way developing readers learn to identify morphemes and code for their typical position within words. A large group of children (N =129; aged 6 to 11 years) were familiarized with a lexicon of pseudo-letter strings, each composed of a random character sequence and an affix-like chunk. Devoid of any linguistic information, chunks could be defined only by their statistical properties – similarly to affixes in the real language, they occurred frequently in a specific position within strings. We found that children were subsequently more likely to attribute a previously unseen string to the novel lexicon if it contained an affix. However, they showed no sensitivity to the within-string affix position. These results demonstrate that developing readers can acquire aspects of morpho-orthographic knowledge via the extraction of visual regularities from the linguistic input. Interestingly, this ability was not reliably modulated by children’s age, reading fluency or morphological awareness, reflecting an early-maturing cognitive capacity. We discuss the importance of incorporating such a fundamental language-agnostic learning mechanism into theories of reading acquisition.

Hintergrund: Die Sekundärnutzung pseudonymisierter, aber nicht anonymisierter Patientendaten ist ein vielversprechender Ansatz, um Präzisionsmedizin und lernende Gesundheitssysteme zu ermöglichen. In den meisten nationalen Rechtsordnungen (z. B. in Europa), erfordert diese Art der Sekundärnutzung die Zustimmung der PatientInnen. Während verschiedene ethische, rechtliche und technische Analysen der letzten zehn Jahre die Chancen und Herausforderungen verschiedener Arten von Einwilligungen hervorgehoben haben, hatte bis vor kurzem noch kein Land einen nationalen, von den zuständigen Behörden und Ethikkommissionen akzeptierten Einwilligungsstandard festgelegt. Methoden: Eine Arbeitsgruppe der deutschen Medizininformatik-Initiative (MII) führte eine Anforderungs- und Bedarfsanalyse durch und entwickelte einen Datenschutz-konformen Standard für eine breite Einwilligung (Broad Consent). Die Entwicklung umfasste Konsensverfahren innerhalb der MII, einen dokumentierten Konsultationsprozess mit allen relevanten Stakeholder-Gruppen und Behörden sowie die abschließende Einreichung zur Genehmigung durch die nationale Datenschutzkonferenz.Ergebnisse: In diesem Beitrag wird der Broad Consent zusammen mit einer Handreichung für die Umsetzung und für verbindliche Schutz-/Transparenzmaßnahmen vorgestellt. Die verbindlichen Schutz-/Transparenzmaßnahmen umfassen i) eine unabhängige Begutachtung einzelner Sekundärnutzungen, ii) Maßnahmen zum Schutz der PatientInnen vor Offenlegung geschützter Informationen und iii) umfassende Information der PatientInnen und Transparenz für die Öffentlichkeit. Dieser Beitrag beschreibt außerdem die mit den zuständigen Behörden erörterten Schlüsselfragen, insbesondere die Position zu zusätzlichen oder alternativen wie dem Dynamic Consent.Diskussion: Sowohl der Broad Consent Text als auch der nationale Konsensprozess sind für ähnliche Aktivitäten auf internationaler Ebene von Bedeutung. Eine zentrale Herausforderung bei der Abstimmung der Broad Consent Dokumente mit den verschiedenen Interessengruppen bestand darin, die Entscheidung für einen Broad Consent und gegen alternative Modelle wie den Dynamic Consent zu erklären und zu begründen und die vermeintlich reduzierte Kontrolle der Einwilligenden über die Datennutzung zu rechtfertigen. Öffentliche Transparenz für alle Sekundärnutzungsprojekte und ihre Ergebnisse erwies sich als ein Kernelement dieser Rechtfertigung. Während der Broad Consent Ansatz derzeit weitgehend auf Universitätskliniken in Deutschland beschränkt ist, wird derzeit in ersten Schritte die Ausdehnung auf weitere Anwendungsbereiche, einschließlich kleinerer Einrichtungen und Praxen, geprüft.
Effect of Liquidity Management on Profitability: A Comparative Analysis between Public Sector and DSE Listed Private Sector Banks in Bangladesh

This study is all about the effect of liquidity management on profitability of public and DSE listed private sector banks and compares the outcomes regarding liquidity management. In this study, is taken 18 banks of Bangladesh in total as sample (9 banks from public sector where 6 banks are state owned and 3 banks are specialized and 9 banks from private sector which are listed in DSE) and also taken five years data from 2013 to 2017 for assessing the impact of liquidity management on profitability. As there is always a trade-off between liquidity and profitability, in this study find out either this trade-off is exiting in the each of banking sector or not and also assess the efficiency of liquidity management of the banks. The liquidity condition of the banking industry of Bangladesh is also highlighted in this study where it is seen that banking industry is facing some problem regarding liquidity from the 2018. The analysis part of the study is assessed the condition of the liquidity management before 2018 and found out the relationship between liquidity and profitability of public sector and private sector banks. To assess the relationship is used some financial ratios like: liquidity management is measured by current ratio, cash-deposit ratio, credit-deposit ratio and investment-deposit ratio and profitability is measured by return on assets and return on equity. By using the descriptive statistics, find out the average, standard deviation, maximum and minimum value of each ratios. The Pearson Correlation is been used to assessed the correlation between each variable with others. The relationship between liquidity and profitability is evaluated through regression model where first consider the return on assets as dependent variable and all liquidity ratios as independent variables. Again here is assessed the relationship by taking return on equity as dependent variable. After developing the model based on regression for public sector and the DSE listed private sector banks individually, the outcomes are compared to find out the effect of liquidity management on profitability and find out the efficiency in liquidity management. It is found that the DSE listed private sector banks are more efficient in liquidity management than public sector banks in Bangladesh. Because the DSE listed private sector banks are managed their liquidity function so well that it is not affecting the profitability of DSE listed private sector banks. On the other hand, the public sector banks need to improve their performance regarding liquidity management so that they can manage liquidity and profitability at the same time and remain competitive with DSE listed private sector banks in Bangladesh.
It’s not a bug, it’s a feature: A novel paradigm for studying executive functions

In everyday life, we handle a multitude of different stimuli and tasks. Mastering this challenge is based on the use of executive functions, for example, to prioritize, select and shield task processing against distractions. However, the situations that require the use of executive functions vary. There are externally structured situations and situations that can be self-structured by the people involved themselves. The latter hence vary in requiring sub-capabilities of executive functions. In the scientific study of executive functions, these different situations hence exhibit different empirical phenomena and pose different challenges to experimental control. Here, we aim to examine effects that are typical for external and self-structured situations. To address the challenges of these type of situations, we developed a paradigm which makes demands on highly self-structure for successful task processing but still provides sufficient experimental control. The paradigm was used in two experiments in which participants inspected images of spring meadows with a variety of leaves, flowers and bugs. Participants had to mark all bugs based on three different characteristics but were free to choose their processing order and strategy. The exploratory Experiment 1 was used to derive hypotheses from the behaviour of the participants; these hypotheses were tested in the preregistered Experiment 2. Our results confirm typical effects from task switching research which usually focus on externally structured situations. Furthermore, we have identified various stable processing strategies and influences of processing sequences which can only be found in self-structured situations. Therefore, our results combine established findings from paradigms with externally structured situations and hence strong experimental control with new findings from self-structured situations and thus open a window into yet experimentally largely untapped aspects of executive functions.
Errand Runners of Digital Platform Capitalism: The Errand Economy as a Contribution to the Discussion on the Gig Economy
Authors: Demir İsa
Published: February 2024

This article describes a new concept called the errand economy. It examines the dark side of the platform economy and the gig economy and makes a valuable contribution to the field. The concepts, especially for liberal scholars, hide the negative impact of platform capitalism on production relationships and the working class by emphasising digital technologies and piecework. The errand economy, however, especially highlights the degradation of labour, regardless of its qualifications, alongside processes such as flexibilisation, precarisation, and informalisation. That is because, under the conditions of the errand economy, platforms treat all types of work as cheap, worthless and degraded errands. The main mission of the platform economy is to end employment by using the discourse of flexibility and entrepreneurship and to transform all employees into errand workers by classifying them as self-employed. For this reason, the article proposes to use the concept of the errand economy together with the platform economy, which refers to digital infrastructures, and the gig economy, which emphasises the piecework.
