Authors: Cai Xiaoqing
Published: February 2025

The traditional mentoring system has lasted for thousands of years in China’s fine arts education, which has trained a large number of artists and enabled China’s excellent traditional fine arts skills to be inherited and developed. However, with the development of modern education, the traditional mentoring system has been gradually replaced by other educational models due to its low efficiency. Today, when the inheritance of Chinese painting was re-examined, we can find the outstanding contribution of this traditional mentoring mode. It can be said that it is an indispensable talent training mode for the inheritance of Chinese painting. In this regard, this paper analyzes the traditional “mentoring system” in the inheritance of Chinese painting, discusses the teaching law of this mode, and hopes to find a complementary path with the modern education mode, to lay a solid foundation for promoting the inheritance of Chinese painting.

Published: February 2025

O artigo objetiva refletir sobre os desafios da gestão escolar democrática e participativa na educação pública brasileira para melhorar a qualidade educacional no país. Trata-se de um estudo fundamentado nos estudos de Libâneo (2028), Silva (2015), Luck (2017), Paro (2016), Saviani (2021), dentre outros; bem como alguns documentos legais: Constituição da República Federativa do Brasil de 1988, a Lei de Diretrizes e Bases da Educação Nacional de 1996. A análise empreendida revela que a gestão escolar democrática e participativa é um fator essencial para a qualidade social da educação pública no contexto educacional brasileiro, embora a gestão da qualidade total de caráter neoliberal também dispute a escola e seu projeto educativo. O estudo permitiu identificar desafios internos e externos à escola que implicam na materialização da gestão democrática e participativa. E evidenciou que superar esses desafios exige estratégias que envolvam os diversos seguimentos escolares no processo de gestão.

Published: February 2025

Este artigo apresenta um estudo que teve por objetivo verificar, por meio das narrativas de professores, se a organização dos espaços e dos tempos oportuniza ou não aos bebês e crianças pequenas experiências para o desenvolvimento do protagonismo infantil. De natureza qualitativa, este estudo empregou como instrumento de pesquisa um questionário aberto, respondido por 32 professores de Educação Infantil da rede municipal de uma cidade de XXX. Os dados foram analisados numa aproximação com a Análise Textual Discursiva (ATD), da qual emergiram quatro categorias de análise. Uma delas, A (trans)formação dos espaços e tempos em ambientes de aprendizagem, é apresentada neste estudo. As análises evidenciaram que há ainda uma percepção adultocêntrica do processo de organização dos espaços e dos tempos, demonstrando que esta organização não vem favorecendo o protagonismo infantil. Conclui-se que é necessário superar espaços, rotinas e práticas adultocêntricas, que não convidem a criança a ser autora de suas experiências e aprendizagem, sendo o olhar sensível do professor um aspecto fundamental nesse processo.

Authors: Arruda Dias Kátia , Corrêa Lacerda Thiago , Correia Vanessa do Carmo
Published: February 2025

Este estudo consiste em conhecer as Representações Sociais que os professores do primeiro segmento do Ensino Fundamental de escolas particulares no interior do Estado do Rio de Janeiro atribuem ao insucesso escolar. Tal problematização dialoga e fundamenta-se na perspectiva de estudos da teoria das Representações Sociais. No caso do estudo aqui realizado, abordamos que as representações sociais ou os sentidos atribuídos a um dado objeto por determinado grupo de sujeitos expressam tanto as informações circulantes acerca desse objeto, as condições de filtragem dessas informações, às experiências relativas ao grupo, as condições sociais e culturais desse grupo e suas relações com os que lhes são próximos ou distantes. Assim, eles retratam fidedignamente as realidades de acordo com valores e normas de determinados grupos, expressam as contradições e as compressões de seus pares. Para isso, adotou-se uma abordagem pluri-metodológica, associando observação, entrevista, teste de evocação livre de palavras e teste do núcleo central. Como resultado, os professores reconhecem o insucesso escolar de seus alunos e projetam a responsabilidade na família. Na análise das evocações  livre,  destacou-se dois termos que compõem, possivelmente, o núcleo central da Representação Social de Insucesso Escolar, família e despreparo do professor. Os resultados encontrados permitiram captar as diferentes formas de circulação de informações, as rotinas de trabalho, os sentidos circulantes, enfim, o cotidiano que vêm marcando os professores pesquisados.
FORMAÇÃO CULTURAL E EDUCAÇÃO NO CONTEXTO DAS RELAÇÕES SOCIAIS CAPITALISTAS: EDUCAÇÃO PARA QUÊ?
Authors: Da Silva Cleonice Aparecida Raphael , Galuch Maria Terezinha Bellanda
Published: February 2025

Este artigo, de natureza teórica, apresenta uma reflexão acerca do esvaziamento dos processos formativos e educacionais no contexto das relações sociais, fundamentando-se na Teoria Crítica da Sociedade. Analisam-se as implicações das novas relações de trabalho impostas pelo emprego da ciência e da tecnologia como forças produtivas e mecanismos de controle da experiência humana, da mercantilização da cultura e da conversão da informação em conhecimento. Tomando-se como parâmetro que a crise da formação é expressão da crise da sociedade capitalista, conceitos como cultura, indústria cultural, trabalho e indivíduo são utilizados para elucidar os fatores que tendem a promover a padronização da subjetividade, o empobrecimento da experiência do pensamento e a degradação dos sujeitos. Compreende-se que, à medida que a racionalização e a instrumentalização, importantes do ponto de vista da produção, adentram as esferas que são, ou deveriam ser, o espaço da transmissão da cultura como expressão de tudo aquilo que foi produzido pela humanidade e, portanto, da individuação, tal como é o caso da educação, enfraquece o processo de reflexão crítica, fortalecendo a pseudoformação.

FAST FASHION: ECONOMICALLY SOUND BUT A DISASTER FOR ENVIRONMENT.
Authors: Kaur Navjot , Singh Varinnder
Published: February 2025

Fashion trends come and go; meanwhile, a society’s values are established and evolving according to its beliefs and culture. Fashion is not an ambitious projected image interpreted as good old value to fulfil some function or agenda but rather an evocative and refreshing concept worthy enough to be portrayed for society’s appreciation which makes us even more instinctive. Fashion, in and of itself, is a reflection of social, economic, political, and cultural developments. It represents modernism and the spirit of the times. The product is no longer the centre of attention: it is the brand that does. Fast fashion is a word used to characterise today's instantly available, low-cost fashion. The term "fast" refers to how quickly merchants can transport designs from the runway to stores to keep up with the ongoing desire for more and new styles. While fair trade companies can attempt to compete with fast fashion retailers, markets for fair trade and eco-friendly textile manufacturing remain small and ethically and environmentally sound supply chains are difficult and expensive to audit. High-income countries can promote occupational safety and environmental health through trade policies and regulations. But in reality, there are no legally binding environmental standards enacted through government regulation. Left unregulated, the industry will be responsible for more than 25% of the world’s global carbon budget by 2050. Reducing emissions, water and energy use, increasing collection and reuse: MEPs want ambitious science-based targets to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the entire lifecycle of the textiles sector. Fast fashion is big business, and while the environmental costs are rising, experts say there is another way: a circular economy for textiles. Environmental justice is defined by the United States Environmental Protection Agency, as the “fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all people regardless of race, colour national origin, or income, concerning the development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations and policies. The term ‘fast fashion’ has become more prominent in conversations surrounding fashion, sustainability, and environmental consciousness. In this article, the researcher wishes to discuss the impact that expanding fashion has on the environment and offer some clever solutions to assist it decline.

Results. Key genetic targets for genome editing in Alzheimer’s disease (APP, PSEN1/2, APOE), Parkinson’s disease (LRRK2, PARK7, SNCA), and Huntington’s disease (HTT) are examined. Results of key preclinical studies demonstrating the effectiveness of various genome editing approaches are analyzed. The success of initial clinical trials of genome editing technologies in related fields and their significance for developing neurodegenerative disease therapies are discussed. Ethical aspects of genome editing application in the nervous system are considered. Conclusion. Despite significant progress in preclinical studies, the transition to clinical application of genome editing technologies in neurodegenerative diseases requires addressing multiple technical, biological, and ethical challenges. Success in clinical trials in related fields provides a foundation for developing effective therapeutic strategies.

Introduction. The interest in neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) in various conditions, including pregnancy complications was increased over the last decade. Accompanied by gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) hyperglycemia contributes to neutrophil’s activation and the formation of NETs.
The aim of study. In this study, we assess NETosis and placental function parameters of women who received diet only or insulin for treatment of gestational diabetes (GDMD/GDMI).
Methods. PR3 circulating levels, associated with NETs formation and placental expression were analyzed by ELISA and immunohistochemistry respectively in GDMD (n=35), GDMI (n=30) and healthy pregnant women (n=30). Clinical data, placental alpha microglobulin-1 (PAMG), placental lactogen and trophoblast glycoprotein (TGB) immunohistochemistry expression were characterized in 30 placentas of GDMD, 20 – GDMI and 25 uncomplicated pregnancies.
Results. PR3 placental expression was increased in complicated pregnancies (GDMD – 60,94 vs 31,88, p < 0,001, GDMI – 64,42 vs 31,88, р = 0,009) with no statistical differences between GDMD and GDMI. Though placental protein expression indicated potential ischemia among GDMI patients, newborn’s condition was the same like healthy mother’s group. Placental protein expression and clinical data between GDMD and uncomplicated pregnancy women were similar.
Conclusion. The study proposes that NETosis in GDM patients in adequate therapy condition, perhaps don’t stimulate pregnancy complications, in contrast – presents consequences of preexisting placental damage.

Flacoside substance with the active ingredient "fellamurin" is an individual natural flavonoid glycoside isolated from the leaves of Amur cork tree, possessing antiviral, hepatoprotective, antioxidant, immunostimulating activity, from which in the 1980s VILAR employees developed the composition and technology of tablets, launched industrial production, which made it possible to use them in the treatment of chronic liver and biliary tract diseases of various origins. However, in the 1990s, the production of the drug was suspended, but the COVID-19 pandemic contributed to the ac-tualization of this development. The aim of the work is to determine the pharmaceutical and technological parameters of the substance and tablet mass of flacoside, to establish their compliance with the requirements of the State Pharmacopoeia of Russia, XV edition, and to identify ways to improve the technology for obtaining tablets to resume production of the drug. The technological parameters of the flacoside substance and the tablet mass obtained by wet granulation (in accordance with the previously developed Technological Regulations) were compared. The results of laser diffractometry, sieve analysis and optical microscopy showed that as a result of granu-lation, the particle size of the tablet mass increases significantly (from 0.02 mm to 1.3-1.5 mm). The bulk density before and after compaction, as well as the angle of natural repose, corresponded to those obtained in the 1980s, which confirms the pharmaceutical and technological identity of the flacoside substance obtained in 2022. A comprehensive pharmaceutical and technological assessment of powders based on 12 parameters, processed using the SeDeM expert system method, showed that the good compression index (GCI) of the flacoside substance, which is not suitable for direct pressing, increases by 1.30 (4.43 → 5.73) as a result of granulation, and the resulting tablet mass can be used for industrial pressing.

Rabies remains one of the most important problems in the world, especially in Asia and Africa, where up to 60,000 people die annually. The situation of rabies morbidity in Russian Federation for the period 2012-2022 is characterised by downward trend due to preventive measures carried out among an-imals and timely post-exposure immunisation of people. The issues of rabies control, caused by the virus of the genus Lyssavirus of the family Rhabdoviridae, infection with which leads to 100% mortality in the absence of post-exposure immunoprophylaxis, are considered. Post-exposure measures, including the use of anti-rabies immunoglobulin and vac-cination, are of particular importance. Administration of antirabic immunoglobulin provides the creation of passive immunity, preventing the spread of the virus before the beginning of antibody production in response to the introduction of an antirabic vaccine. The search for promising directions in the creation of new-generation drugs for passive immunoprophylaxis of rabies is topical. As an alternative to tra-ditional immunoglobulin, the use of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) with high affinity to the rabies virus glycoprotein is proposed. WHO recommends the use of ‘cocktails’ of two or more mAbs, which is due to the diversity of target epitopes in rabies virus strains and the possibility of uncontrolled point/local mutations in the antigenic sites of the virus. The need to optimise the production and quality control of heterologous anti-rabies immunoglobulin by expanding the list of controlled indicators and methods of their determination, including for the purpose of harmonisation with the requirements of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) decisions for the formation of a common market of medicines has been shown. Thus, research into the development of new anti-rabies drugs should be continued in order to improve the effectiveness of rabies control measures and reduce lethality. At the same time, it remains important to optimise the production and quality control of existing drugs that have proven their ef-fectiveness.
