Malaria is a vector-borne protozoal disease, caused by genus Plasmodium, where female anopheles’ mosquito works as a vector to transfer malarial parasite. The disease has been reported to be endemic in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Since drug resistance of the Plasmodium species and economic burden of the disease are the major concerns associated with malaria. Thus, most of the world’s population is focusing on the utilization of medicinal plants as the natural treatment for several diseases including malaria. There is limited published data available regarding anti-malarial activity of Allium sativum against Plasmodium vivax. Therefore, this study was aimed to assess the in-vitro anti-malarial activity of Allium sativum methanolic extract. The methanolic extract of Allium sativum showed significant anti-plasmodial activity (80.57%) at 0.2 mg/ml highest tested dose after 24h. The phytochemical analysis showed the presence of Flavonoids, Vinyldithiins, Ajoenes, Alliin and Allicin in the Allium sativum methanolic extract. Among the phytochemicals, only Allicin at the highest tested dose (0.2mg/ml) showed the inhibition (59.75%) of P. vivax inhibition. Allium sativum methanolic extract exhibits anti-plasmodial activities in-vitro. However, further studies are required to assess the in-vivo anti-plasmodial activity of Allium sativum methanolic extract against plasmodium vivax in future.

Published: October 2023

Acute Respiratory Failure (ARF) requiring Intensive Care Unit (ICU) admission is a common complication following renal transplant and is a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. This study aimed to evaluate etiological factors and clinical outcomes of ARF following a renal transplant. This was a retrospective observational study. Data was recruited from last five –years’ records of Renal Transplant Unit of Dow University of Health Sciences, Karachi, Pakistan. Patients who developed ARF after renal transplantation whether requiring hospitalization (both in ICU or in ward) were included and their severity, etiologic diagnosis, and clinical outcomes were evaluated. During past five years (June 2017 till June 2023) a total of 450 kidney allografts were done and 35 patients (7.8%) developed ARF. Out of which 15 patients were shifted to the ICU. Mortality of female patients was higher as compared to males (26.1% versus 20.4%). Hypertension was found to be the most common comorbidity whereas glomerulonephritis was the most common cause of End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD).
Acute rejection was observed in 20.89% (n = 94) of recipients. Bacterial pneumonia was the most common cause of ARF, one patient needed on mechanical ventilation whereas two patients were dialysis dependent survivors. ARF following renal transplant is associated with higher mortality and loss of graft function because of compromised immunity. Anti-bacterial prophylaxis and early intensive management appears to help in improving the outcome while integrating the graft function.

Utilizing Dimensions of Critical Literacy to Improve Active Learning in Teaching English Novels in Lesotho
Authors: Masunhloane Mabohlokoa , Kgothule Rantsie
Published: October 2023

English is the language of learning and teaching in many countries, as in Lesotho. This language has a curriculum, and one of its components includes reading English novels. Although English is accorded this prestigious status in Lesotho secondary schools, minimal effort has been made to address the improvement of learners’ reading skills of English novels. With this in mind, this theoretical paper focused on teachers’ use of Critical Literacy (CL) by highlighting some literature perspectives on traditional banking education and CL, the emerging relationship between CL and Active Learning (AL), and the dimensions of CL as enhancers. The methodology used in this article is derived from the experiences of the authors and three English teachers in Lesotho schools related to the dimensions of CL in the teaching of English novels (EN). The study concluded that CL should be re-visited and recognized to enable teachers to act as the driving force in teaching EN.

Emotional Integrity: Implications for the Ghanaian Youth from a Pastoral Perspective
Authors: Opata Jacob Kwame
Published: October 2023

This research, conducted from a pastoral perspective, explored the concept of emotional integrity and its implications for the Ghanaian youth. While the study of emotions has been extensively examined from psychological, philosophical, and biological perspectives, there is a need to explore the subject from a pastoral standpoint. Given the increasing prevalence of emotional challenges among young people in Ghana, and the religious nature of the country, it is essential to examine this topic within an African context. This study employed qualitative research methods within a theological framework and utilized both primary and secondary data sources to illustrate various aspects of emotional development within Ghanaian society. Primary data principally comprised “media materials data,” also referred to as “qualitative audio and visual materials.” Secondary data was obtained from published academic materials. The research emphasized the heightened emotional instabilities within the country. It also emphasized the significant role of the Church in providing guidance, support, and healing to address these challenges. The study highlighted the importance of examining emotional integrity within the Church’s preaching and service, emphasizing the need to prioritize love over fear-based manipulation. By adopting a holistic approach that combines religious and relevant non-religious approaches, the Church can effectively address emotional issues, facilitate healing, and promote the overall well-being of the Ghanaian youth. This research sets the stage for a deeper exploration of emotional integrity and its implications for the Ghanaian youth within a pastoral view. It contributes to the understanding of emotional integrity from a pastoral perspective and provides insights into how the Church can play a vital role in empowering young individuals to navigate emotional challenges and foster their personal and spiritual growth.

Over the years, I have given a great number of talks about the First Nations community in the academic, political, and public-service realm. On numerous occasions I have been quizzed by audience members about the incompetent and corrupt chiefs. I am also asked to defend their ‘exorbitant salaries’. To counter these misinformed and inaccurate notions, in this article I will give a more accurate depiction of the First Nations chiefs and their work life. I also explore the complex and restrictive world in which they must govern their heavily regulated and closely knit communities.
Planning insect surveys in alpine ecosystems
Authors: Pellet Jérôme
Published: October 2023

Most biological survey programs rely on multi-species inventories (e.g. birds, amphibians, butterflies, dragonflies). These programs usually rely on multiple visits during pre-defined time windows. The implicit goal of this popular approach is to maximize the observed species richness. Here, we present a novel method to optimize the timing of survey windows using a framework maximizing the detectable species pool. We present a proof of concept using 20 years of entomological records in Switzerland using butterflies, dragonflies, and grasshoppers. The general framework presented can potentially be applied to a wide range of biological survey schemes. It offers a new practical tool for adaptive entomological monitoring under climate change.
How FDO attributes can support machine- and human-readability? - a description along three examples
Authors: Schwardmann Ulrich , Kálmán Tibor
Published: October 2023

Based on the notion of a FAIR Digital Object (FDO) record, which consists of key-value pairs as attributes that are precisely defined in a Data Type Registry and selected in a profile, we show three examples of FDOs from different viewpoints how FDO records can be implemented as Handle PID records. As references to the attribute definitions, the keys determine the value space of the attribute. In the first two examples, the profiles enable human-readable keys and legacy digital objects to be integrated into FDO records. How legacy metadata from IANA media types that can be transformed into structured metadata of appropriate attribute definitions that then can be applied in profiles and FDO records, is described in the third example.

Let $ \mathcal{D} $ be a strongly double triangle subspace lattice on a nonzero complex reflexive Banach space. In this paper, we characterize the linear maps $ \delta, \tau $: $ {\rm{Alg}}\mathcal{D}\to {\rm{Alg}}\mathcal{D} $ satisfying $ \delta(A)B+A\tau(B) = 0 $ for any $ A, B\in {\rm{Alg}}\mathcal{D} $ with $ AB = 0 $. This result can be used to characterize linear maps derivable (centralized) at zero point and local centralizers on $ {\rm{Alg}}\mathcal{D} $, respectively.

The example of the rowing machine is considered to introduce the crank-slider mechanism and the kinematic analysis using complex numbers. The mechanism is associated with a spring to ensure the device simulating the resistance in the rowing bench simulator. The optimal synthesis problem is formulated for the desired effort to perform and solved using the Sequential Quadratic Programming method. All developments are implemented under Matlab.
Defending Democracy: What We Can Learn About Civic Identity from Peer Educators Involved in Nonpartisan Political Engagement
Authors: Kappus Alexander Stephen
Published: October 2023

Research on college student political engagement remains limited, often focused on classroom interventions, studied quantitatively (Bardwell, 2011; Beaumont et al., 2006; Mann et al., 2018). Students’ lived experience of their political engagement, however, is “situational, emergent, and co-creative” (Hildreth, 2003, p. 8). During the 2020 election season, 15 students participated in a qualitative study, sharing their lived experiences of nonpartisan political engagement through their work as peer educators with the Campus Vote Project (Kappus, 2021). The students educated their peers about voting, provided access to nonpartisan educational materials, and encouraged political discourse through programs such as debate watch parties, discussion groups, and more. The study employed semi-structured interviews, focus groups, and on-going communication to co-construct findings with participants. This article examined the study’s key findings to offer a rich illustration for corresponding components of a healthy civic identity (Schnaubelt et al., 2022). By embracing nonpartisanship, students demonstrated unwavering commitment to integrity as a civic duty. In countering misinformation, confronting voter suppression, and enduring hostility, students exemplified resilient minds, bodies, and spirits. The article centers a promising practice, peer-to-peer political engagement and makes a case for institutionalized support for student-led nonpartisan education, and outreach.

Published: October 2023

Si on veut faire la corrélation entre action politique et activisme numérique, les deux dernières décennies ont constitué un tournant en la matière. En effet, il a été démontré comment pourrait être l’effet des outils de communication en ligne pour mobiliser et influencer la population, surtout en compagne électorale.Plusieurs termes ont été utilisés à ce propos : e-mobilisations, e-tactiques et e-mouvements. Ces outils dérivés d’internet ont rapidement permis aux partis politiques d’améliorer la portée et l’étendue de leur action. Ainsi, l’action des partis s’est tellement amplifiée qu’on est arrivée à l’idée que les médias sociaux peuvent favoriser la participation et l'activisme politique.

Published: October 2023

The authors define and set in context the digital transformation process and how it affects the development of companies, the appearance of digital leadership and the characteristics predominantly recognized in this new type of leadership. A qualitative methodology was employed to understand the triangular alignment and involvement, composed of organization, digital transformation, and leadership. The authors verify there are different top leaders in the most diverse areas of activity and that there are indeed substantial changes in the leadership process. It allowed the identification of a set of characteristics, mainly from the communicational point of view, which is essential for the effective pursuit of the objectives of both the different work teams and the organizations themselves. The authors fill a gap in the extant literature because they present the decisive leadership characteristics in the context of an increasingly digitalized work environment, and have verified they are not yet strongly anchored in the extant literature.

Published: October 2023

Working from home was seen as one of the most convenient options to respond to productivity needs during the COVID-19 pandemic, but this type of work caused significant social and organizational changes, which demanded the employees' adaptation to new working conditions. The present study aims to describe the health habits developed during quarantine periods under the work-from-home modality. It also seeks to establish the relationships between these habits and perceived productivity, and to identify preferences for returning to the workplace based on productivity in a sample of 588 workers from Colombia. The results indicated that approximately half of the participants reported a perception of lower productivity, and the most prominent habit associated with perceived productivity was exercising. The relationship between productivity and the preference for returning to the workplace showed those who reported higher productivity preferences favored a hybrid work model, while those perceiving lower productivity preferred a return to in-person work.
REVOLUÇÃO TECNOLÓGICA E SMARTPHONE: CONSIDERAÇÕES SOBRE A CONSTITUIÇÃO DO SUJEITO CONTEMPORÂNEO
Authors: Ferreira de Oliveira Flávio Augusto , Shima Barroco Sonia Mari
Published: October 2023

O texto, resultante de estudos teóricos empreendidos à luz da Psicologia Histórico-Cultural entre 2016 e 2020, tem como objetivo recuperar a revolução tecnológica como um recurso para a compreensão da constituição dos sujeitos contemporâneos, partindo da máquina a vapor da Primeira Revolução Industrial, empregada nos meios de produção, até o smartphone, empregado na cotidianidade. O smartphone possui níveis tão altos de compactação, portabilidade e operacionalidade que o tornaram uma das mais avançadas tecnologias da história, revelando o elevado grau de desenvolvimento do psiquismo alcançado pelo gênero humano. Ele, mais do que outras tecnologias digitais de informação e comunicação (TDICs), tem impactado notadamente a constituição dos sujeitos contemporâneos, especialmente suas funções psicológicas cognitivas. Os resultados demonstram que recuperar dialeticamente o percurso histórico das criações tecnológicas é essencial à psicologia, permitindo ampliar o espectro de análise de como os sujeitos se constituem na atualidade. Conclui-se que a revolução microtecnológica deve ser tomada sob um viés crítico e ético, por tudo o que pode impactar nas relações entre os sujeitos e no desenvolvimento dos seus processos psíquicos.

Published: October 2023

Os estudos existentes acerca da revelação da violência sexual são, em sua maioria, baseados em casos de meninas. À vista disso, objetivou-se conhecer as reações protetivas e não protetivas de mães e pais diante da revelação de meninos vítimas de violência sexual. Para tanto, foi realizado um estudo qualitativo, por meio de entrevistas, com nove mães. Em seguida, efetuou-se a análise temática dos dados, que resultou em seis temas: momento da revelação; confiança e desconfiança; acolhimento; busca de ajuda; emoções; e proteção. Tomados em conjunto, os resultados indicam que as mães apresentaram, no geral, reações protetivas diante da revelação, evidentes em todos os temas identificados. A partir do momento da revelação, as mães confiaram nos seus filhos e buscaram acolhê-los por meio de uma escuta atenta, também, cabe dizer, algumas entraram em estado de paralisia e entristecimento. Esse acolhimento foi seguido de busca de informações e de atendimento especializado. A proteção ocorreu, ainda, por meio do afastamento dos agressores e monitoramento da rotina dos filhos. Nesse sentido, é fundamental que haja investimento em ações de conscientização sobre os serviços disponíveis para que cuidadores possam proteger crianças e adolescentes em risco. Além disso, são necessárias intervenções que visem auxiliá-los no manejo de seus sentimentos diante da revelação, bem como em relação às consequências da violência para crianças e adolescentes.

Published: October 2023

O objetivo deste estudo foi compreender as concepções de qualidade de vida de idosos portadores de hipertensão arterial sistêmica e diabetes mellitus tipo II. Trata-se de um estudo exploratório-descritivo de abordagem qualitativa, e a estratégia de coleta de dados foi a técnica de Grupo Focal. Os dados foram analisados usando o programa de análise qualitativa – QDA miner e interpretados através da análise de conteúdo, proposta por Bardin. Os dados revelaram duas categorias: ‘Concepções de Qualidade de Vida’, que aponta para os elementos que atravessam a compreensão que os idosos têm da qualidade de vida e ‘Relação entre Qualidade de vida e doença crônica’, como a vivência da doença crônica está associada à qualidade de vida. Os dados indicam que as concepções de qualidade de vida de idosos com hipertensão arterial e diabetes mellitus passam pelo processo de convivência com a doença crônica, enfatizando a importância de fatores subjetivos, especialmente os recursos psicológicos e sociais dos idosos, que auxiliam no enfrentamento dos efeitos negativos das condições crônicas que interferem na qualidade de vida.

Authors: Martins Silva Gabriela , Guanaes Lorenzi Carla
Published: October 2023

Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar um processo de Educação Permanente em Saúde (EPS) desenvolvido com profissionais de Centros de Atenção Psicossocial. O estudo foi orientado pela perspectiva construcionista social, que considera a linguagem como forma de ação social e se interessa pelos processos interacionais e dialógicos na produção do conhecimento. Foram realizados sete encontros com um grupo de dez profissionais. As conversas foram gravadas, transcritas e analisadas qualitativamente, a partir da delimitação de momentos críticos. Exploramos a análise de dois momentos críticos, que indicam a ocorrência de transformação de sentidos relacionados à importância do trabalho desenvolvido pelas profissionais e à possibilidade de participação das famílias no cuidado. Foram nomeados como: “‘O afeto é transformador”: ’: construindo a importância do trabalho e dos encontros de EPS, e “‘Estamos prescrevendo corresponsabilização”: ’: transformando o sentido de participação das famílias. Por meio da análise deles, discutimos a centralidade do processo conversacional na configuração das possibilidades dialógicas, com destaque à responsividade como recurso básico de facilitação para promoção da dialogia.
