Authors: Soledade Ana Filipa , Maurício Cezarina Santinho
Published: July 2024

O presente trabalho pretende apresentar uma prática de voluntariado com crianças e jovens ucranianos, desenvolvida por estudantes do curso técnico superior profissional de intervenção social comunitária, da Escola Superior de Educação e Ciências Sociais, no decurso do 2º semestre, do ano letivo 2021/2022.  Enquanto país integrante da União Europeia, Portugal ativou, pela primeira vez, a diretiva europeia de proteção temporária, para garantir o asilo a todos os cidadãos em fuga da guerra da Ucrânia. O governo e as autarquias locais tomaram medidas no sentido de operacionalizarem esse acolhimento. A Câmara Municipal de Leiria respondeu, afirmativamente, a esta chamada. Os objetivos centrais deste projeto consistiram em prestar apoio a uma população em situação de grande vulnerabilidade social em virtude da guerra e contribuir para a integração das crianças e jovens. Os estudantes realizaram trabalho no centro de recolha de bens e concretizaram atividades direcionadas às crianças ucranianas, instaladas na estrutura de acolhimento coletivo, a funcionar no Estádio Municipal de Leiria e que aguardam a sua integração nas diferentes escolas ou o acesso a outras opções. A promoção de atividades lúdicas e recreativas é considerada relevante, desempenhando um papel a varios níveis: proporcionar momentos de socialização e de ligação com a comunidade, estabelecer pontes entre aspectos culturais de Portugal e do país de origem, contribuir para ambientes seguros e acolhedores que facilitem a inclusão. Os cuidados no acolhimento fomentam o bem-estar destas crianças e jovens.

Authors: Chompoo Jamnian , Chusuwan Oranee , Abdullakasim Supatida
Published: July 2024

Background: Four Aranda hybrids, including Aranda Bangkhuntian Gold, A. Calypso, A. Royal Sapphire and A. Sayan Duangporn were analyzed for their bioactive substances and antioxidative activities as commercial cut flowers with suggested medicinal properties. Methods: A completely randomized design was conducted for this study. Total flavonoids, total phenolics and 2,2¢-azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS), 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and ferrous ion (Fe (II)) radical scavenging activities were analyzed from the ethanoic extracts of four parts, including flower bud, blooming flowers, leaves and roots of the four Aranda cultivars. Furthermore, the dried powder samples were kept at room temperature (25-28°C) or cool (5-7°C) for six months to compare the bioactive substances and antioxidative activities after storage. Result: In most Aranda hybrids, the leaf ethanolic extracts had the highest total flavonoids and total phenolic contents range from 26.63-40.05 mg rutin equivalent (RUE)/g extract and 152.00-254.13 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/g extract, respectively, which is remarkably different from the floral parts (bud or blooming flowers) that had only 8.00-20.80 mg RUE/g extract and 97.44-143.44 mg GAE/g extract, respectively. The highest ABTS and Fe (II) antioxidant activities were detected in the leaf part with 53.13-78.85% and 11.19-15.07%, respectively, while the inhibitory effect on DPPH of most Aranda hybrids was the highest in the root part (67.37-80.90%), which 1.13-2.78 folds higher than the floral parts. Compared among the four Aranda hybrids, the A. Bangkhuntian Gold had the highest leaf total phenolic content (291.67 mg GAE/g extract) and inhibitory activities on ABTS and DPPH in the root part, about 80.90-82.23%. At six months of dried sample storage at room temperature or in a refrigerator, the total phenolic contents, ABTS, DPPH and Fe (II) activities in all organs of most Aranda hybrids could maintain similar levels in both storage temperatures. In contrast, the total flavonoid contents of leaves and roots were more sensitive to room temperature since the level was markedly reduced.
Paragneisses of the Nyartinskiy metamorphic complex and the Mankhobeinskaya suite (Subpolar Urals): metamorphism, mineral and structural properties
Authors: Popvasev K. , Potapov I.
Published: July 2024

The paper discusses mineral and structural properties of paragneisses of the Nyartinskiy complex and the Mankhobeyskaya suite. The PT-parameters of mineral equilibria of the second and third metamorphism stages have been estimated using the computer programs by the classical and multi-equilibrium mineral thermobarometry methods. By the microstructural parameters, the study rocks undergo three independent tectonic-metamorphic stages. The first stage is acknowledged by the presence of strongly compact and isoclinal folds in the paragenesis with first-generation foliation and by relict minerals that are absent in the overlying (Upper Riphaean) sediments. The second stage corresponds to the progressive metamorphism with principles of the epidote-amphibolite facies (metamorphism peak T=606-527 °C, P=8.8-7.9 kbar) and is accompanied by the development of asymmetric similar folds in the paragenesis with cleavage foliation. The third metamorphism stage (diaphthoresis) in paragneisses means the development of secondary changes. The calculated crystallization temperatures of chlorites correspond to the facies of green shales (T=285-232°C).
Extra moenia: Does inquietudine Offer Solidarity or frantumaglia?
Authors: Park Moonjung ,   The Criticism and Theory Society of Korea
Published: July 2024

Tabucchi defines inquietudine (disquiet) in terms of ontological nostalgia. His novels illustrate how marginalized groups escape “the boundaries.” Similarly, Ferrante shows how a subject experiencing frantumaglia (fragmentation) forms a new subjectivity through La smarginatura. There is sympathy between Tabucchi’s inquietudineand Ferrante’s La smarginatura. Both authors show the process of deconstruction and reconstruction of the subject through literature, suggesting the possibility of forming a new subject. These literary discussions are congruent with Italian philosophers’ discussions of resistant subject formation and social transformation through the concept of sinisteritas—those excluded from the existing order—similar to the marginalized groups in Tabucchi and Ferrante’s works. Through the subjectification of sinisteritas, Italian philosophers resist the existing order and seek new political subjectivities. This corresponds to the possibility of La smarginaturaand new subject formation in literary works.

Aim: To compare performance differences among dental surgeons in the public sector of the state of Minas Gerais regarding prenatal dental care before and after the establishment of Previne Brasil. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted, gathering data through a structured questionnaire. The sample consisted of dental surgeons working in the public sector of municipalities in MG and utilizing the snowball effect. Data analysis was performed using the IBM-SPSS® version 29.0, employing Pearson’s Chi-square statistical test (P<0.05). Results: Out of the 28 State Health System (SRS) present in MG. A total of 1696 responses were collected, but after applying the exclusion criteria, 1001 responses remained, specifically related to dental surgeons working in MG public sector. 78.6% comprised professionals who graduated before 2019, while 20.1% graduated after that year. The morning and the second or other gestational trimesters were the most common periods considered optimal for caring for pregnant women. A significant portion of the professionals had not undergone any specific courses or training on this topic, reporting an average satisfaction level of 5.52 regarding the accessibility of information during their education aimed at this audience. Conclusion: Variances were observed in the care provided to pregnant women by dental surgeons working in the public sector of Minas Gerais, distinguishing those trained before and after the implementation of Previne Brasil. The debunking of myths and taboos stands as crucial for enhancing the acceptance of prenatal dentistry.
Determinação cinética de Mo(VI)
Authors: Andrade João Carlos de
Published: July 2024

Uma reação catalítica ocorre quando uma determinada espécie presente no meio reacional (o catalizador) provoca uma diminuição da  energia de ativação do sistema, sem ser consumida no processo. Essas reações são particularmente úteis quando se deseja detectar e/ou  determinar a presença de quantidades muito pequenas (traços) de substâncias contidas em uma amostra. Algumas reações ocorrem (ou são aceleradas) apenas na presença de catalisadores e o estudo cinético dessas reações fornecem informações valiosas sobre a sua presença ou ausência no meio reacional. Os primeiros exemplos de métodos analíticos baseados na cinética química datam do final do século XIX e estão relacionados com a atividade catalítica das enzimas. Apesar da variedade de métodos desenvolvidos na primeira metade do século XX, os métodos cinéticos deixaram de ser de uso comum, pois eram susceptíveis a erros causados por variáveis mal controladas, como a temperatura, pH e a presença de interferentes, que podiam ativar ou inibir as reações. Somente após os anos 80 é que essa técnica voltou a ser mais estudada com mais afinco. Nesse artigo, de caráter didático, pretende-se demonstrar o uso do método cinético-catalítico na determinação de traços de íons Mo(VI) em solução, com base na reação indicadora de água oxigenada com íons iodeto em meio ácido. A produção de iodo pode ser acompanhada espectrofotometricamente, monito-rando-se a  formação do complexo [I2 – amido], de cor azul intensa, que apresenta seu máximo de absorbância em l=590 nm. A reação também pode ser acompanhada monitorando-se a formação do I2 em solução no seu máximo de absorção em l=390 nm, mas a sensibilidade desse procedimento é bem menor. O desenvolvimento da reação indicadora foi observado em intervalos de tempo regulares na presença de diferentes concentrações de Mo(VI), permitindo a construção das curvas cinéticas que relacionam a velocidade da reação com a concentração do catalisador. O objetivo principal desse artigo é o de demostrar o emprego da técnica cinético-catalítica de análise, usando a espectrofotometria molecular como método de detecção, aplicando o procedimento para a determinação da concentração de íons Mo(VI) em uma amostra contendo (apenas) íons molibdato. Esse método é atrativo como um experimento didático pois, além de relativamente preciso, emprega  um instrumental simples e de uso corriqueiro em laboratórios de ensino.
Counterfactual conditional strategies in some Amazonian languages
Authors: Olguín Martínez Jesús , Vásquez Aguilar Alonso
Published: July 2024

Studies on individual Amazonian languages have shown that these languages can contribute to informing and refining our theories of counterfactual conditional constructions. Still missing, however, is an attempt at exploring this complex sentence construction across different genetic units of the Amazonia in a single study. The paper explores counterfactual conditionals in a sample of 24 Amazonian languages. Special attention is paid to the range of TAM markers and clause-linking devices used in counterfactual conditionals in the Amazonian languages in the sample. As for TAM markers, it is shown that protases tend to be unmarked (they do not occur with any TAM values), and apodoses tend to occur with irrealis or frustrative marking. As for clause-linking devices, it is shown that most Amazonian languages in the sample contain counterfactual conditionals occurring with non-specialized clause-linking devices. This means that the distinction between counterfactual conditionals and other types of conditionals (e.g., real/generic) is not grammaticalized in clause-linking devices. Instead, the counterfactual conditional meaning resides in the combination of specific TAM markers. The paper also pays close attention to the distribution of TAM markers and clause-linking devices in counterfactual conditional constructions in the Vaupés. In particular, special attention is paid to how Tariana counterfactual conditional construction have been shaped by Tucanoan languages through language contact.

Published: July 2024

Este artigo analisa, por meio de canções sobre as chuvas em Fortaleza e entrevistas com artistas, os diferentes significados atribuídos a esse fenômeno climático. Experiências com a cidade, mudanças socioeconômicas e imagéticas acarretaram distintos sentimentos dos compositores pela chuva. Percebeu-se nos artistas mais velhos uma associação da chuva com a seca, remetendo às migrações de sertanejos cearenses para o Sul e o Sudeste do Brasil. Para os jovens artistas ela acentua e visibiliza as discrepâncias estruturais históricas na distribuição dos serviços públicos entre os bairros da cidade. Conclui-se que a música pode ser uma via importante para compreender as transformações sociais e culturais na cidade, como também, as mudanças recentes da imagem e do imaginário do Nordeste brasileiro.

Published: July 2024

La estimulación luminosa intermitente (ELI) es una de las maniobras más comunes y conocidas utilizadas durante los registros de electroencefalograma (EEG). A pesar de ser la de más fácil estandarización, presenta una gran variabilidad metodológica y la interpretación y clasificación de la respuesta fotoparoxística (RFP) sigue siendo, en gran medida, subjetiva. Objetivo: La presente revisión intenta ofrecer un marco de referencia actualizado acerca de la metodología estandarizada para la ejecución de la ELI y para interpretar/clasificar la RFP. Se formula un análisis crítico de los retos prácticos actuales en el ámbito clínico y se proponen algunos criterios operativos que pueden contribuir a mejorar el acuerdo entre evaluadores. Conclusiones: Los criterios operativos propuestos abarcan —pero no se limitan— a la morfología, la amplitud, la duración, el desfase y la redundancia. La generalización del uso de una metodología estandarizada de ELI, aunada a criterios operativos para confirmar la presencia de RFP, puede ayudar a mejorar el diagnóstico de epilepsia y de fotosensibilidad. De esta forma, la práctica clínica del EEG no solo mantendría su vigencia, sino que incluso mejoraría la atención a pacientes con epilepsia. La presente revisión en idioma español puede contribuir a homogeneizar esta práctica clínica en países hispanohablantes.

Published: July 2024

In this research, we focus on a critical web security topic, namely the security of session cookies, which play a key role in the functioning of modern web applications. As a standard mechanism for storing data on the client side, cookies are crucial for authentication, authorization and maintaining the state of a user's session. However, despite their necessity and convenience, cookies can also pose serious security risks. Our research focuses on the analysis and automation of cookie attribute verification, which is critical to ensuring protection against various web attacks. Identifying and eliminating weaknesses in cookie attributes can significantly reduce the risk of malicious attacks such as session hijacking, cross-site scripting (XSS) and cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks. We take an in-depth look at modern methods and tools for securing cookies, including implementing strict policies on cookie attributes such as Secure, HttpOnly, and SameSite. These attributes help to restrict access to cookies from unauthorized use via client-side scripts and provide additional protection against cross-site attacks. In addition, we consider the importance of updating the cookie standard, RFC6265bis, which offers improved security mechanisms, including the SameSite attribute, which allows controlling the sending of cookies during cross-requests, thereby reducing the risk of CSRF attacks. Our research also includes an analysis of potential threats and vulnerabilities associated with the misuse or misconfiguration of cookies, as well as a discussion of strategies to minimize these risks. We demonstrate how detailed automated verification of cookie attributes can significantly improve the security of web applications. The results of the study point to the need to constantly monitor and evaluate the protection of session cookies, as well as the importance of implementing security best practices and standards to ensure the reliability and security of web applications.
Investigation of associative rule search method for detection of cyber incidents in information management systems and security events using CICIDS2018 test data set
Authors: Onishchenko Volodymyr , Puchkov Oleksandr , Subach Ihor
Published: July 2024

Automated rule generation for cyber incident identification in information management and security event systems (SIEM, SYSTEM, etc.) plays a crucial role in modern cyberspace defense, where data volumes are exponentially increasing, and the complexity and speed of cyber-attacks are constantly rising. This article explores approaches and methods for automating the process of cyber incident identification rule generation to reduce the need for manual work and ensure flexibility in adapting to changes in threat models. The research highlights the need for utilizing modern techniques of Intelligent Data Analysis (IDA) to process large volumes of data and formulate behavior rules for systems and activities in information systems. The conclusion emphasizes the necessity of integrating multiple research directions, including analyzing existing methods and applying IDA algorithms to search for associative rules from large datasets. Key challenges addressed include the complexity of data modeling, the need to adapt to changes in data from dynamic cyber attack landscapes, and the speed of rule generation algorithms for their identification. The issue of the "dimensionality curse" and the identification of cybersecurity event sequences over time, particularly relevant to SIEM, are discussed. The research objective is defined as the analysis and evaluation of various mathematical methods for automated associative rule generation to identify cyber incidents in SIEM. The most effective strategies for enhancing the efficiency of associative rule generation and their adaptation to the dynamic change of the cybersecurity system state are identified to strengthen the protection of information infrastructure.
Development of parabolic antenna irradiator for tropospheric communication station
Authors: Hichko Yurii , Golovin Yuriy , Mazor Serhii , Khranovska Tetyana
Published: July 2024

The currently existing tropospheric stations, due to high energy consumption and limited signal formation capabilities, and radio relay stations, also due to limited communication range, require new technological solutions. One such solution proposed is the creation of a tropospheric-radio relay station with completely redesigned radio equipment. The Institute of Special Communications and Information Protection, in collaboration with a research institute, developed a scheme for such a station, which was tested in field trials on a real tropospheric radio line with a length of 155 km. Our specialists were involved in the development of two antenna devices. A detailed analysis of the current state of tropospheric communication station development in the world was conducted, and the possibilities of modernizing existing stations, such as the R-423-M, were considered. Based on the results of the analysis, it was proposed not to conduct modernization, but rather to develop a new generation of tropospheric communication stations. According to the accepted station construction concept, its transmitting and receiving parts were developed as two separate units (external and internal). The external unit for conducting field trials was located on the antenna, allowing for the maximum reduction of signal losses in the antenna-feeder paths. The components of the internal units were housed in the closed body of a vehicle. This provided additional convenience for the operator and reduced the requirements for climatic conditions. The antenna block of the transmitter includes a power divider, a power amplifier block (eight power amplifiers of 10 W each), a two-mirror parabolic antenna with a hyperboloid small mirror, and an eight-element horn feed that can be powered in such a way that the output wave will be either linear or circular polarization.

Authors: Andrievskaya I. A. , Lyazgiyan K. S. , Zhukovets I. V. , Ustinov E. M.
Published: July 2024

Aim. To analyze and compare parameters of innate immunity with obstetric and perinatal outcomes in patients with COVID-19 in the third trimester of pregnancy. Materials and methods. The study included 2 groups: the main group encompassed patients with mild (subgroup 1, n = 31) and moderate (subgroup 2, n = 40) COVID-19 during the third trimester of pregnancy; the control group included women who did not have COVID-19 during pregnancy (n = 22). By the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), we determined the level of anti-SARS-CoV-2 immunoglobulin (Ig)M and IgG, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα), interleukin 6 (IL-6), and interferon gamma (IFNγ) in the blood plasma. Complete blood count was performed on the automated hematology analyzer. Expression of CD-14 and HLA-DR antigens in monocytes was analyzed on the flow cytometer. SARS-CoV-2 RNA in placenta samples was detected by the reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results. A moderate course of COVID-19 in the third trimester of pregnancy was associated with lower levels of anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG and IFNγ in the maternal blood and umbilical cord blood, as well as by lower expression of CD-14 and HLA-DR by monocytes compared to mild COVID-19. A mild course of the disease was characterized by an increase in the number of monocytes in the maternal blood. No differences in leukocyte and lymphocyte counts were noted. There were also no differences in birth weight and one-minute Apgar score. At 5 minutes, the Apgar scores for moderate COVID-19 were lower than those for mild infection. The moderate course of COVID-19 increased the risk of preterm birth, neonatal cerebral ischemia, intraventricular hemorrhage, and respiratory distress syndrome. No risk of intrauterine SARS-CoV-2 infection was detected. Conclusion. The severity of COVID-19 in the third trimester of pregnancy is associated with dysregulation of the innate immunity, which determines the nature of obstetric and perinatal complications.
The pandemic from a non-medical perspective
Authors: Konstańczak Stefan
Published: July 2024

W swoim artykule autor podjął próbę analizy obecnej pandemii COVID-19 przez pryzmat nauk humanistycznych i społecznych. W interpretacji autora pandemia jest naturalnym zjawiskiem, którego negatywnych skutków ludzkość doświadcza cyklicznie, choć nieregularnie, już od wielu stuleci. Problemem zasadniczym jest zatem organizacja walki z czynnikiem chorobotwórczym, w którą zaangażowane są nieomal wszystkie instytucje społeczne. Przedmiotem krytyki autora stała się przede wszystkim polityka informacyjna decydentów w tej walce oraz niewykorzystanie w niej potencjału instytucji naukowych. Powoduje to że walka z pandemią jest mało efektywna, gdyż jest prowadzona przy użyciu metod tradycyjnych, które zawodzą w przypadku pojawienia się nowego zagrożenia. W podsumowaniu swego artykułu autor podkreśla ludzką umiejętność do mobilizacji w sytuacjach zagrożenia oraz traktuje obecną pandemię jako okazję do nowego urządzenia świata według proekologicznego modelu.

Disinfection by-products to obtain drinking water, such as CH2Cl2, CHCl3, and BrCHCl2, elicit cytotoxicity and hyperproliferation in human lung fibroblasts (MRC-5). Enzymes of their biotransformation modulate these damages and can generate toxic metabolites. However, it is unknown that the response to oxidative stress is involved in cellular hyperproliferation modulated by nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB). Hence, MRC-5 cells were treated with these compounds to evaluate ROS, lipid peroxidation, phospho-NF-κB/p65 (Ser536) levels, CAT, SOD, and GPx activities. Further, the interactions of halomethanes and ROS with IκBα/NF-κB/p65 complex were analyzed by molecular docking. The correlation among biomarkers showed positive relationships between the prooxidant damage with the antioxidant response, particularly in cells treated with CH2Cl2, and BrCHCl2. Furthermore, negative relationships among ROS with levels of NF-κB/p65 in cells treated with CH2Cl2, and CHCl3 were detected. The estimated relative free energy of binding using thermodynamic integration with the p65 subunit of NF-κB was -3.3 kcal/mol for BrCHCl2; -3.5 kcal/mol for both CHCl3 and O2•, and -3.6 kcal/mol for H2O2. The chloride and bromide are in close contact with the IPT domain residues, particularly in the RHD region involved in DNA binding. Ser281 is located in the same domain, allowing this protein's phosphorylation. Similarly, both ROS are in contact with IPT domain into region RHD and H2O2 as side-chain oxygen with Leu280, adjacent to the phosphorylation site of p65. However, a negative correlation among ROS with phospho- NF-κB/p65 suggests ROS's steric hindrance on the C-terminal domain of NF-κB/p65 is involved in antioxidant response.
