Authors: Sukhija Sanchi , Singh Surjit , Saxena Suvinay , Ambwani Sneha , Khera Pushpinder S.
Published: January 2023

ABSTRACT

The case report evaluates shoulder injury related to COVID-19 vaccine administration. A 26-year-old female patient presented with shoulder pain, which increased on extension and overhead abduction in routine work. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was done based on which, a diagnosis of shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) was reported. Significant improvement was seen after Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), topical diclofenac ointment, and serratiopeptidase tablets. Physical muscle strengthening exercises were advised. Based on Naranjo and World Health Organization (WHO) casualty assessments, the adverse drug reaction (ADR) was categorized under probable. Preventability, Hartwig’s scales for severity was assessed, which showed preventability and moderate grade in severity. The total cost (direct and indirect) for management was found to be rupees 7021 and 41,781 in government and private hospital respectively. Thus ADRs not only add to patient suffering but also increase the economic burden. Health care professionals (HCPs) need to be made aware of potentially fatal ADRs associated with the administration of vaccines and should be keen to report such ADRs to drug safety authorities.

Authors: Wanjari Mayur , Patil Manoj , Late Sampada , Umate Roshan
Published: January 2023

ABSTRACT

Background and Aim:

Recently, it has been revealed that most thyroid disorders occur among females and that the factors contributing to this are infertility and sex hormone imbalance. Other research studies showed both genders are equally affected. Therefore, this study aims to estimate the prevalence rate of thyroid disorder among young adults in the rural areas of Wardha district and correlate the results with demographic variables.

Materials and Methods:

A cross-sectional research design was used in this study. One thousand males and females were involved in the study. The Calbiotech Thyroxine Elisa kit was used to check the prevalence rate of thyroid disorder. Data were analysed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) and released in 2016.

Results:

Among the rural villages of Wardha district, Seloo, Salod (Hirapur) and Kelzar were included in the study. It was found that in Seloo, 154 (49.04%) young adults had normal thyroid function, 105 (33.44%) had hyperthyroidism and 55 (17.52%) participants had hypothyroidism. Salod (Hirapur) showed 210 (47.95%) with normal thyroid function, 149 (34.02%) with hyperthyroidism and 79 (18.04%) with hypothyroidism. In Kelzar, there were 121 (48.79%) with normal thyroid function, 80 (32.26%) with hyperthyroidism and 47 (18.95%) with hypothyroidism.

Conclusion:

Prevalence of thyroid disorder revealed that majority of the thyroid problems were found among females in the rural areas of Wardha district. There are various problems in rural areas, such as lack of medical facilities and laboratory facilities to diagnose thyroid dysfunction early. It is recommended that health check-up camps be conducted in rural areas and health education be given to young adults about thyroid disorders and their prevention measures for promotion of health free from a thyroid disorder.

Solitary cerebellar tumefactive demyelination in a child: A radiological and histological conundrum
Authors: Mohan Akhil , Gopalakrishnan Chittur V , Menon Supriya , Panikar Dilip
Published: January 2023

Abstract

Pediatric tumefactive demyelination (TD) is a very rare pathology. There are no previous case reports of histopathologically proven solitary cerebellar TD in children. We report the case of a 7-year-old girl who presented with headache, vomiting, and imbalance. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain showed an irregular enhancing lesion in the left cerebellar paravermian region with perilesional edema. On a preoperative diagnosis of high-grade tumor, she underwent complete excision with an intraoperative frozen section suggestive of a glial neoplasm. Histopathology revealed a diagnosis of TD. Solitary TDs of the cerebellum in children are extremely rare. This is the first report of a histologically proven isolated cerebellar TD in a child. We discuss the diagnostic difficulty and surgical dilemma in the management of this case.

Published: January 2023

Abstract

An 11-year-old boy presented with pseudoaneurysm of the common carotid artery, which posed an anaesthetic and surgical challenge. Just prior to the incision, the pseudoaneurysm ruptured necessitating manual compression and emergent endovascular coiling to arrest the bleeding. Appropriate resuscitative steps were undertaken simultaneously, and the coiling was successful thereby saving the patient. Definitive flap reconstruction was later performed. The case report highlights vulnerability of pseudoaneurysms to rupture without warning and causing torrential and life-threatening hemorrhage. The necessity of prior planning and preparation to manage such an emergency should it arise cannot be overemphasized.

Authors: Narayan Vinitha , Jaswal Sanjay , Narayanan Vidhya , Sethuraman Raghuraman M , Mahajan Shalvi
Published: January 2023

Abstract

Dextro transposition of great arteries (dTGA) and tricuspid atresia (TA) are rare causes of cyanotic congenital heart disease (cCHD). Brain abscess is a dreaded complication in these patients due to high rates of morbidity and mortality. We present the anesthetic management of two pediatric patients with dTGA and TA, who developed brain abscess, for which burr-hole and drainage were done under general anesthesia. Anesthetic management included a thorough preoperative assessment and optimization, careful selection of anesthetic agents, and close intraoperative and postoperative monitoring. Both of our patients recovered and were discharged from the hospital. Although several cases of brain abscess in cCHD have been reported, both dTGA and TA are rare conditions and this is the first case report of brain abscess in untreated TA, to the best of our knowledge.

Published: January 2023

Abstract

Recurrent stroke, though relatively rare, is a significant cause of neurological morbidity and mortality in childhood. Arteriopathy is the commonest cause of recurrent stroke in children. We report a case of a 4-year-old child, who presented with three events of stroke and hypertension with elevated inflammatory markers. Neuroimaging studies showed lacunar infarcts in the deep grey matter and brainstem. A systemic vasculitis syndrome such as polyarteritis nodosa was considered when the child developed painful skin nodules and joint symptoms later in the course of disease. Parental consanguinity and PAN like features in a young child with predominant neurological involvement in the form of recurrent lacunar stroke led us to the possibility of DADA2. Subsequent investigations revealed deficiency of ADA2 enzyme and a homozygous mutation at p.Gly47Arg of ADA2 gene. Anti TNF agents like etanarcept is the mainstay of treatment of DADA2 associated vasculitis and prevention of cerebrovascular events.

Published: January 2023

Background: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been accepted as the best non-invasive imaging modality for the evaluation of knee joint pathology but the advantages of ultrasound (US) over magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are that the ultrasound is readily available, cheap and offers real-time imaging. Aim: To assess the accuracy of ultrasound in diagnosing knee joint pathologies using MRI as a reference. Materials And Methods: 50 patients were evaluated prospectively over a period of 1.5 years by USG followed by MRI of the affected knee. Accuracy of USG was calculated with MRI as reference. Results: In our study, the majority of patients were in age group 21-30 years. Perfect agreement was noted between ultrasound and MRI for detecting Baker’s cyst. Near perfect agreement was noted between ultrasound and MRI for detecting joint effusion, soft tissue edema and osteophytes. Substantial agreement was noted between ultrasound and MRI for Collateral ligaments tear and Meniscal injuries. Moderate agreement was noted between ultrasound and MRI for PCL tear. Fair agreement was noted between ultrasound and MRI for ACL tear. Conclusion: Knee USG has high accuracy in diagnosing pathologies like knee joint effusion, synovitis, popliteal/baker’s cysts, soft tissue edema/cellulitis, arthritic changes, collateral ligament and meniscal tears.

Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is a genetic disease that commonly presents with migraine with aura, ischemic episodes, cognitive decline, and psychiatric manifestations. It is caused by mutations in the NOTCH3 gene with autosomal dominant inheritance. We report a 45-year-old male who presented with recurrent episodes of migraine over the last fifteen years and a history of migraine in his family members. A review of his imaging suggested CADASIL as a possible diagnosis. He underwent genetic testing which showed a positive NOTCH3 mutation. This report aims to highlight the importance of considering CADASIL as a cause of familial migraine. Keywords: CADASIL, Migraine, Stroke

Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD), one of the non-communicable diseases, has become a major public health problem and it is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in both developing and developed countries. The important CVD risk factors are obesity, hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidaemia, unhealthy diet, physical inactivity and tobacco use. Cardiovascular risk approach is feasible and cost-effective tool, which helps to identify those at high risk for developing CVDs, so that immediate preventive measures or action can be taken to reduce the risk. Objectives: estimate the ten-year risk of developing cardiovascular disease using Framingham heart risk assessment score. Materials and Methods: A community-based, cross-sectional study was conducted among adults residing in a rural area of Dakshina Kannada District for a period of 6 months from July 2013 to December 2013. The data was collected using pretested semi structured questionnaire through interview methods. Anthropometric measurement and blood investigation (fasting blood sugar and lipid profile) was done. The Framingham Risk Score is a gender-specific algorithm used to estimate the 10-year cardiovascular risk of an individual Results: Among 712 study participants, 95 (13.3%) and 20 (2.8%) participants had intermediate and high risk of developing cardiovascular disease in 10 years respectively. The proportion of intermediate CVD risk prediction and high-risk predication was more in males as compared to females. Conclusion: The cardiovascular risk factors like obesity, physical inactivity, diabetes and hypertension are widely prevalent among adults in rural areas. The high-risk prediction for developing CVD among study participants in next 10 years was 2.8%. Keywords: Cardiovascular risk factors, Framingham risk score, 10 years CVD risk prediction, Prevalence

Published: January 2023

Background and aims: Epidural analgesia has been considerably used for postoperative analgesia in Orthopaedic surgeries, however, combination of opioid and non-opioid medications in the perioperative period seems to provide an effective alternative. Objectives: To compare the efficacy of pre-emptive multimodal analgesia with combined spinal epidural for postoperative analgesia in lower limb arthroplasties. Materials and methods: 50 patients scheduled for elective lower limb Arthroplasties were randomly divided into two groups. Spinal anaesthesia with 2.5ml of 0.5% Bupivacaine (heavy) plus 0.5ml (25µg) Fentanyl was given in both the groups for procedure. Group I received Cap. Pregabalin 150mg and Inj Paracetamol 1000mg IV 1 hour before surgery and 75mg 12 hourly and 1000mg IV 8 hourly respectively, while Group II received epidural top up with 10 ml of 0.125% bupivacaine 8 hourly, both for 3 days postoperatively. Perioperative haemodynamics, postoperative VAS, rescue analgesics requirement, and Patient satisfaction level were monitored for 72 hours. Results: Postoperative VAS score was significantly higher in Group II from 4th hour postoperatively, and, accordingly, more patients in this group required rescue analgesia (21 and 20 in Group II vs 10 and 1 in group I in 12-24 hrs and 24-36 hrs respectively with p value <0.001). Modified Bromage score, haemodynamics and side effect profiles were comparable in the groups, however, patient satisfaction level was more in Group I (p value <0.001) after 72 hours. Conclusion: Pre-emptive multimodal analgesia can be used as an effective alternative to epidural for postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing lower limb joint replacement surgeries. Keywords: Pre-emptive multimodal analgesia, Combined spinal epidural analgesia, Lower limb arthroplasties, Postoperative analgesia

Published: January 2023

Colorectal cancers (CRC) are on the rise globally with increased incidence rate 5.7/100000 cases in developing countries like India. 1 Majority (90%) of CRC are adenocarcinoma. The primary adenosquamous carcinoma (ASC) of the colon is exceedingly rare variant of adenocarcinoma with incidence of 0.025% and accounts for 0.1% of colonic epithelial malignancies. 2 The squamous differentiation accounts for its aggressiveness and poor prognosis. Here we report a rare case of primary ASC in 80year old male who presented with large bowel obstruction and peritonitis. A 80-year-old male brought to causality with history of fever, vomiting, pain in abdomen, altered sensorium since three days. The clinical examination revealed intestinal obstruction and peritonitis. Patient was immediately subjected for radiological and hematology investigations which showed signs of bowel obstruction and perforation. On emergency exploratory laparotomy, colonic perforation was identified along with an ulcer proliferative mass in ascending colon. Gross examination of right hemicolectomy revealed 9x6x3cm ulcero proliferative mass in ascending colon. The microscopic examination showed an infiltrating tumor composed of adenocarcinoma component and areas of squamous differentiation (60%) noted. Tumor was invading through muscularis propria and serosa. Final diagnosis of primary ASC was made. Colonic ASC is rare and associated with poorer prognosis. The squamous cell differentiation has greater metastatic potential than adenocarcinoma. Compared to adenocarcinoma, ASC is more likely to manifest with advanced disease and complications.

Published: January 2023

Synovial sarcoma is a malignant soft tissue neoplasm which amounts to 7-10% of all sarcomas. Clinicopathological heterogeneity within this tumour creates a diagnostic challenge in sorting it out from its differential diagnoses. Here we report a 42-year-old female patient presenting with a mass in the right nasal cavity for two months. With an imaging impression of a right ethmoidal polyp with a remote possibility of malignant etiology, a final diagnosis of sinonasal synovial sarcoma was made with the help of a panel of IHC antibodies. A high degree of suspicion along with a detailed work up is required to accurately diagnose synovial sarcoma in unlikely locations such as nasal cavity.

Published: January 2023

Background & Aims: The diagnosis of abdominal tuberculosis has always been a challenge to the physician. The clinical presentation is subtle with many vague symptoms and nonspecific signs. We did this study to find the various diagnostic findings in a case of chronic abdominal pain and find out the efficacy of laparoscopy in diagnosing Koch’s abdomen. Materials and Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted on patients attending surgery department from Nov-2020 to Nov-2021 having clinical and radiological diagnosis of abdominal tuberculosis. Total 59 patients of suspected abdominal tuberculosis underwent diagnostic laparoscopy and started on anti-tuberculosis treatment. Result: The most common presenting symptom was abdominal pain present in 35 patients (59.32%). In CT scan, 31 of them were suggestive of abdominal tuberculosis and seven were inconclusive. Only 37 of them had positive (62.71%) histology for tuberculosis and 22 were negative (37.28%). The PPV and NPV of CT scan was 77.42% (95% CI=60.19-88.61%) and 85.71%% respectively. Out of 27, 20 mesenteric lymph nodes had positive histology for tuberculosis. 29 patients had caseating granuloma and 12 had non-caseating granuloma. All 18 histology negative patients had nonspecific chronic inflammation with reactive lymph nodes. Peritoneal fluid was aspirated and sent for CBNAAT from 30 patients (50.84%). 10 were positive (33.33%) for tuberculosis gene and 20 (66.33%) were negative. Conclusions: Performing laparoscopy in the majority of patients with suspected abdominal tuberculosis is a clinically rewarding idea. It has a high yield to establish the diagnosis of abdominal tuberculosis (65.78%) by sampling macroscopically pathological tissues. Keywords: Koch’s abdomen, Diagnostic laparoscopy, Koch’s abdomen
Populäre Physikotheologie: Wissensgeschichtliche Quellen der Volksaufklärung im theologischen Breitenschrifttum ‚vor‘ 1750
Authors: Lindel Korbinian
Published: January 2023

Many research on popular enlightenment has described the process of popularisation as a hierarchical transfer of knowledge: Knowledge emerges here in close exchange between a few scholars before it is passed on in simplified form to a wider audience. Against this view of a ›top-down‹ popularisation, inter­actionist models have prevailed in more recent studies. These models describe a production of knowledge in which scholars and common people are equally involved. This article tests the applicability of this model in an historical perspective and shows, on the basis of physico-theological texts from the early German Enlightenment, how an interactionist conception of knowledge popularisation could take concrete shape in the 18th century.
Entkollektivierung: Zur Spannung von Individualität und Kollektivität in der Publikationsgeschichte der ‚Xenien‘
Authors: Ehrmann Daniel
Published: January 2023

In recent years collaborations have increasingly gained attention amongst scholars in literary studies. Since they are a common, but often neglected phenomenon, the specific practices of writing together were the dominant focus of these studies. This paper outlines some of these practices that shaped the collaboration between Goethe and Schiller. It emphasizes at first the indirect character of the collaboration that led to the ‘Xenien’, published in Schiller’s ‘Musen-Almanach für das Jahr 1797’. Despite this remarkable cooperation that was mediated through letters and clean copies, the main interest of this paper is the afterlife of this collective that consisted at least of two authors and one work. While the practices of writing together end with the publication of the work, it is uncertain at which point the collective ceases to exist. The way Goethe and Schiller handled the intricate problem of integrating the collective work of the ‘Xenien’ in the individual editions of their complete works makes de-collectivating observable as a practice that is complementary to cooperative writing.
Autographen und ihre Faszinationsgeschichte: Von Goethe bis Stefan Zweig

In the 19th century, collecting autographs represents a widespread fashion, but also a philologically motivated activity. The essay analyzes the literarization and popularization of autograph collecting on the basis of contemporary guidebooks and handbooks as well as on the basis of prose and poems by Goethe, Droste-Hülshoff, Lenau, James, and others. Stefan Zweig’s important autograph collection, which he commented on in several essays, is considered a highlight of this history of fascination.

Published: January 2023

The aim of this paper is to present the role of onomatopoeia in comics and to emphasize the importance of its translation there. Firstly, we pay attention to the issue of the status of comics. The brief presentation of their evolution allows us to show their legitimacy as the ninth art and the importance of being treated as a full-fledged genre possessing its own language which must be decoded. Secondly, we highlight the peculiarity of the language of comics and analyze one of its essential traits - onomatopoeia. Finally, we focus on the question of the translation of onomatopoeias from our corpus in French and Serbian. The corpus is based on the twelve volumes of the comic book Gaston Lagaffe by author André Franquin, and their version in Serbian, translated by Đorđe Dimitri- jević. This approach allows us to determine the importance of translating onomatopoeia from the source language into the target language and to reveal the processes of their translation through our corpus.

This paper analyzes the realization of the accent norm in terms of pronunciation of pre- fixed and complex words with domestic (bez-, među-, nad-, pod-, protiv- više-, visoko-, vodo-, dugo-, novo-), or foreign (anti-, infra-, kontra-, multi-, elektro-, kardio-, makro-, hidro-) prep- ositive components in a speech on television. The material was collected according to the pro- nunciation of professional speakers of the news program on the public television broadcast in the Republic of Srpska, which was monitored daily for a year, and shows a distinct tendency of pronouncing these words with two accents, regardless of the number of syllables, origin or formation model, which violates one of the principles of standard prosody of the Serbian lan- guage. Serbian language norm accept two-accent pronunciation of individual words with for- eign prepositive components, but two-accent pronunciation of prefixed and complex domestic words, which is already widespread on television, should be eliminated through the adequate preparation of professional speakers.
CHALLENGING NEOLIBERALISM: THE STATUS OF ENGLISH AS A GLOBAL LANGUAGE AS SEEN BY STUDENTS IN SERBIA
Authors:   Singidunum University Department of Foreign Languages, Gajic Tijana D.
Published: January 2023

While there is a growing body of research on neoliberal trends in education as well as efforts to raise students’ critical awareness on the issue, few studies on the topic have been conducted in the Western Bal- kans. Drawing on a critical account of students majoring in IT, this paper examines their ability to critically analyze the status of English as a global language, especially in relation to social, cultural, and eco- nomic factors. The focus group methodology was used in this research because it challenges study subjects to explore and even defend their opinions. Content analysis was conducted on the students’ statements in order to identify trends and patterns that appeared within the focus group’s discussion. The results suggest that views about the English language were shaped by the broader socioeconomic context of neolib- eralism. Furthermore, it motivates students to learn English in order to improve their employability in the global labor market. This paper hopes to open avenues for new critical perspectives and even challenge dominant neoliberal notions of the English language today.

Published: January 2023

The paper focuses on the framing types in the novel Zona Zamfirova by Stevan Sremac. We aim to determine a postclassical approach to narrative and the term narrative itself by establishing its relation to methodological guidelines of postclassical and cognitive narratol- ogy. Analyzing frames inevitably opens the question of narrative boundaries, which is why our research is based on the conclusions made by Werner Wolf and Gerard Genette. Through analytical reading of the aforementioned authors, we endeavored to interpret Sremac’s novel by dealing with paratextual frames, subtitles as (con)textual frames, initial and final frames and framing. The dynamics of the process of framing requires the application of the theory of immersion and virtual narratives thanks to whose mental simulation the recipient forms his own coherent world through the narrative.

The paper discusses the motifs of spiritual and physical life and disappearance in the fiction by Borisav Stanković, the distinguished Serbian writer. His major prose works deal with the themes of history, development, and devastation of human relations and identities of various social layers at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century in the city of Vranje area. Stanković’s main literary preoccupations are the major political, demographic, and cultural changes that happened in Vranje region in this period, which reflected on the life of wide cultural communities and individual personal histories. This paper particularly inves- tigates the questions of the material and spiritual existence of Stanković’s literary heroes, and his representations of the questions of survival, disappearance, life, and death of characters, both in materialist and spiritual, i.e. symbolic respect. On that account, the paper explores the novels titled Nečista krv and Gazda Mladen as the most representative examples of Stanković’s work, relevant for the understanding of these themes. In conclusion, the paper suggests that the author’s point of view in Stanković’s fiction, predominantly, holds the individual lives, existence, and well-being of characters as more deeply dependent on their symbolic and inti- mate authenticity, than on their material, physical presence, and affluence in this world.
„DOK VAS DAN NE RASTAVI“ ILI HANDKEOV HIPERTEKSTUALNI ODJEK BEKETOVE „POSLEDNjE TRAKE“

Peter Handke is one of the most widely read and interpreted German-language authors in the world, and his literary influence, alongside that of Thomas Bernhard, has spread to Quebec, leaving its mark on an entire generation of writers. The writer’s debut novel The Goalkeeper’s Fear of the Penalty Kick and the play The Beautiful Days of Aranjuez inspired the works of Wim Wenders, an important representative of the New German Cinema movement – with whom he cosigned the scenarios of The Goalkeeper’s Fear of the Penalty Kick and Wings of Desire. This is not a surprise given the influence that the (French) New Novel, to which the New Wave of French cinema also owes a lot, had on Handke. This article contains a comparative study of the play Till Day You Do Part, or A Question of Light, considered as a “sequel” that Handke gives to Beckett’s play Krapp’s Last Tape; these two plays were performed together, under the direction of Christophe Perton at the Théâtre de la Ville de Valence in 2008, and by Jossi Wieler at the Salzburg Festival in 2009. Forming a “diptych” of monologues with its hypotext, Handke’s hypertext gives the voice to one of his female characters, a love of youth that Krapp abandoned in the name of a work to come, while his opus magnum turned into a failure. The play Till Day You Do Part is also permeated with intertextual echoes, in which a deep knowledge of Beck- ett’s work can be discerned, as well as the finesse of mind necessary to perceive his most subtle qualities. By focusing on examining the meaning of the Handkean literary experience, our comparative analysis will take into account the French and English versions of the two plays.
The Relation between the Monuments of WuWuzhuanggong shrine and the Overseas Chinese Community: Focusing on the Monuments of Modern Period

Published: January 2023

This paper aims to clarify the historical significance of each relic and its relationship with the Overseas Chinese Community through a survey of relics produced during the modern period preserved by the Wu Wuzhuanggong shrine. The WuWuzhuanggong shrine enshrines Admiral Wu Changqing, who was dispatched from the Qing dynasty to Choseon to suppress the Im-O Military Revolt. King Gojong established it in 1885 in the name of Jeongmu shrine to commemorate Wu Changqing after his death, and hold national memorial service every year. Japan's colonization of Choseon-Korea was actively promoted, and in 1909, the memorial service and management was transferred to the Qing Consulate General in Choseon-Korea, and the ceremony was held jontly with the Kyeongseong Chinese Chamber of Commerce. In this paper, we first surveyed all the relics in the collection of WuWuzhuanggong shrine and deciphered all the characters on each relic of the monument stone, plaque, couplet, and mortuary tablet. After deciphering, through the work of translating all relics, we fully grasped the content of each relic, and examined the historical meaning of each relic, focusing on its relationship with overseas Chinese community. Each relic not only contains the history of the WuWuzhuanggong shrine as it is, but also clearly shows the actual situation of its transformation. The overseas Chinese community in Gyeongseong is directly involved in the management, repair and maintenance of the WuWuzhuanggong shrine, as well as the rituals, and has served as a historical space that unites the overseas Chinese community

Published: January 2023

. Рассматриваются некоторые аспекты обучения профильной лексики студентов неязыко-вых вузов. Для этого необходимо обеспечить такой интегративный подход, при котором будет непрерывно осуществляться повторение профильной лексики в фонетических, грамматических, проектных, кейсовых упражнениях. Традиционный подход предполагает список лексических единиц для запоминания, но более эффективно обучать лексике – вы-полняя упражнения системно. Анализируются различные методики обучения лексики по направлению подготовки и выявляются наиболее результативные модели. В заключении выявлено, что обучение профильнонаправленной лексики становится важным составляю-щим всего процесса изучения иностранному языку как совокупности знаний, умений и навыков, а также инструментария их использования в различных профессиональных ситу-ациях.

Esta pesquisa tem por objetivo investigar as dificuldades enfrentadas pelo professor da Educação de Jovens e Adultos – EJA - no processo de ensino e aprendizagem, no contexto presencial e online, durante a pandemia da COVID 19. Para isso, trabalhamos com a pesquisa do tipo qualitativa de cunho exploratório e como método para a coleta de dados, utilizamos uma entrevista semiestruturada, através de um roteiro baseado em perguntas que forma elaboradas previamente. Por meio dos dados coletados, foi possível analisar os desafios que cada professor entrevistado enfrentou em seu processo de ensino e aprendizagem, seja no ensino remoto ou presencial. Percebemos a desigualdade presente no sistema de ensino EJA, essa problemática refere-se às lutas que os sujeitos ali inseridos enfrentam em sua realidade sejam eles alunos ou professores, na comunidade em que estão inseridos. Com esse estudo, ressaltamos que, mesmo depois de tantos anos, a modalidade de Ensino de Jovens e Adultos ainda precisa de atenção por partes dos governantes deste país. Concluímos que a educação de jovens e adultos, em meio a pandemia, teve um declínio na participação de alunos nas aulas remotas, levando os professores a buscarem ferramentas que incluem e motivam os alunos na participação das atividades propostas pela escola.

This study mainly focused on understanding the importance of psychological assessment as well to analyse and point out the moral decay to the students. Currently, in our country we hear from the radio, televisions, newspaper and media concerning the morals issues regarding students, such as bad behaviour, improper use of technology, family issues, and quarrelling. Few months ago, our president of the united republic of Tanzania Dr. Samia Suluhu Hassan made remarks to the religious leaders to speak out the issue of morality in their teaching. The president said that the country is undergoing a massive moral decay and parents, leaders and guardians should join together in order to identify the root causes and where the society went wrong. She insisted that the society can be successful only if that they instruct, teach and direct children to understand the moral value. In order to make that happen, that the government should provide all necessary support needed for the change to take place. Therefore, we need a psychological assessment to help our students, teachers, school administrators as well as parents identify their moral positions.
