PRECEDENTES JUDICIAIS, INTELIGÊNCIA ARTIFICIAL E A (IN)DISPENSÁVEL ATIVIDADE INTERPRETATIVA DO JUIZ
Authors: Büttner Paula
Published: December 2024

O presente artigo discorre sobre a atividade interpretativa do juiz relacionada com os precedentes judiciais e a inteligência artificial no Poder Judiciário. O assunto abordado tem ligação com a teoria geral do direito e das decisões judiciais, abarcando noções gerais de interpretação e de aplicação das normas jurídicas, bem como faz um paralelo com a implementação da inteligência artificial na atividade decisória. O tema é de notável relevância teórica e prática, pois busca compreender de que forma o sistema jurídico será reestruturado a partir desses novos paradigmas e se a atividade do juiz será (in)dispensável diante do efeito vinculante dos precedentes e da utilização de modelos de inteligência artificial na produção de decisões. Objetivando-se aprofundar o tema, empregou-se, no presente trabalho, um estudo bibliográfico e utilizou-se do método de abordagem dedutivo de análise. A partir da análise do presente embate, verificou-se que a interpretação consiste em uma atividade complexa e deve ser externada através da fundamentação nas decisões judiciais no nosso país, estruturado em um Estado Democrático de Direito, proporcionando a unidade do ordenamento jurídico. Nessa linha, demonstrou-se a necessidade de ressignificação de conceitos até então empregados, considerando a instituição dos precedentes judiciais como nova fonte normativa. Por fim, percebeu-se que a inteligência artificial pode contribuir para o aprimoramento da prestação jurisdicional, conferindo maior celeridade e racionalidade nas deliberações, bem como deve ser utilizada como um instrumento de integração, pois a atividade interpretativa do juiz continuará sendo indispensável no processo de construção da decisão judicial, visto a natureza humana do Direito.
MEDIAÇÃO RESOLUTIVA E TRANSFORMATIVA: UMA ANÁLISE DO PRECEITO DA OBRA “LA PROMESSA DE MEDIACIÓN”
Authors: Jacinto Farias Pacheco da Silva Karine
Published: December 2024

Os conflitos são inegáveis, fazem parte do cotidiano das sociedades e das relações e precisam ser resolvidos de modo socialmente aceitável, não raramente por meio da interferência do Estado a partir da prestação jurisdicional de seus tribunais. Há, ainda, uma busca constante pela resolução alternativa de conflitos. Encontrar formas de resolver os conflitos sem exigir o envolvimento dos tribunais é um esforço que vem se tornando recorrente em muitos países, em função da percepção que formas alternativas podem ser mais rápidas, efetivas e evitar que o conflito se torne uma barreira para que as partes possam voltar a conviver no futuro, caso queiram. Diante do exposto, este estudo foi desenvolvido a partir de uma revisão da literatura do período de 2018 a 2024, visando encontrar estudos sobre a mediação transformativa e sua aplicação nos mais variados modelos de conflitos. Além disso, o livro “La promessa de mediacíon” foi usado como base de consultas para o desenvolvimento deste estudo. O objetivo do estudo é demonstrar de que forma a mediação transformativa de conflitos pode gerar mudanças que ultrapassam apenas o esforço de chegar a uma decisão legal. Nas últimas décadas, a mediação de conflitos vem sendo definida como uma alternativa de gerenciamento de conflitos por meio da qual um terceiro intervém em um conflito, de forma voluntária e não coercitiva, a fim de evitar possíveis tendências destrutivas entre as partes. Cada vez mais as nações e ordenamentos jurídicos têm se interessado em Sistemas de Resolução de Conflitos, com diferentes modelos sendo desenvolvidos. A mediação transformativa é uma alternativa por meio da qual os esforços dos envolvidos convergem para a definição de uma solução efetiva para o conflito existente, porém, traz consigo a busca pela pacificação e possibilidade de construção e cenários nos quais as relações não sejam destruídas ao fim dos conflitos.

Authors: Cabral de Souza Costa Inayara
Published: December 2024

Este artigo visa explorar os conceitos e as práticas de planejamento tributário e transação fiscal, destacando suas implicações jurídicas e fiscais, especialmente os impactos à Fazenda Pública. O planejamento tributário é uma ferramenta legítima de gestão que visa a redução da carga tributária de forma lícita. Por outro lado, a transação fiscal é um mecanismo previsto em lei que permite a regularização de débitos tributários mediante concessões mútuas entre o Fisco e o contribuinte. Juntos, o planejamento tributário e a transação fiscal, são instrumentos cruciais na gestão dos tributos por parte de empresas e do fisco. Este estudo analisa a maneira como os mecanismos de planejamento tributário e transação tributária podem impactar juridicamente a Fazenda Pública, considerando os limites legais impostos e os potenciais efeitos fiscais sobre a arrecadação tributária nos entes federativos. Aborda-se o conceito, os tipos e as implicações legais do planejamento tributário, além da transação fiscal como ferramenta de resolução de conflitos tributários, sob a análise da legislação e jurisprudência brasileira vigente.
SUSPENSÃO DA PRESCRIÇÃO DURANTE O PROCEDIMENTO DE MEDIAÇÃO:
Authors: Jacinto Farias Pacheco da Silva Karine
Published: December 2024

A resolução de conflitos refere-se às diferentes maneiras pelas quais as pessoas podem resolver disputas sem julgamento. Os processos comuns de resolução de conflitos incluem mediação, arbitragem, conciliação e negociação. Estes processos são confidenciais, menos formais e menos estressantes do que os processos judiciais tradicionais. Este estudo foi desenvolvido com o objetivo de ressaltar a suspensão do prazo prescricional durante o procedimento da mediação de acordo com o art. 17, parágrafo único, da Lei n. 13.140 de 2015. Procedeu-se de uma revisão da literatura. A mediação é um elemento fundamental na busca pela Resolução de Litígios, por se tratar de uma técnica efetiva na busca pela colaboração entre os mediados e para a comunicação eficaz. Atuando como técnica neutra, o processo de mediação permite que os mediados em conflito se envolvam em um diálogo aberto, facilitado por um mediador que incentiva o debate sem impor decisões. Os dados coletados para o desenvolvimento deste estudo evidenciaram que a interrupção do prazo prescricional é uma medida essencial para incentivar indivíduos ou empresas em conflito a buscarem uma alternativa não judicial para a resolução de seus conflitos. A mediação coloca os mediados em um mesmo espaço e ambos têm o direito de expressar seus sentimentos e percepções sobre o conflito, com isso, há maiores chances de superarem os conflitos e chegarem a uma resolução com o mínimo de intervenção judicial.

Authors: Schmitz Aline Motter , Santos Roselí Alves dos
Published: December 2024

Os conhecimentos tradicionais fazem parte de culturas locais e encontram-se em domínio de diversas populações. As mulheres são detentoras dos conhecimentos sobre a prevenção e cura de enfermidades através da utilização das plantas medicinais, práticas que resistem ao tempo e à modernização produtiva ocasionada pela consolidação do sistema capitalista de produção. O objetivo deste texto é analisar o vínculo entre os conhecimentos tradicionais e as mulheres e verificar as mudanças e permanências neste vínculo na modernidade. A metodologia é de pesquisa qualitativa, pautado em revisão teórica e coleta de dados e informações. A coleta de informações primárias foi realizada através de entrevistas semiestruturadas, com 16 agricultoras que integravam o Coletivo de Mulheres Agricultoras do Sintraf-FB, no município de Francisco Beltrão, Paraná. Na constituição da modernidade e da ciência enquanto conhecimento universal, os conhecimentos tradicionais relacionados às plantas medicinais passam a ser invisibilizados, mas, assim como as espécies de plantas, permanecem salvaguardados pelos povos e principalmente pelas mulheres agricultoras.
Influence of the degree of lignification and use of indole-acetic acid on the development and rooting of Libidibia ferrea cuttings
Authors: Macia Ruiz Gloria Cecilia , Da Silva Daniel , Barbosa Sampaio Paulo de Tarso Barbosa Sampaio
Published: December 2024

Libidibia ferrea (Mart. ex Tulle.) L.P. Queiroz, commonly known as pau-ferro and belonging to the Fabaceae family, is a species valued in traditional Brazilian medicine, promoting research in pharmacological and biotechnological products. However, seed propagation faces obstacles due to seed coat dormancy, which reduces germination rates, and genetic variability, which can lead to biochemical differences in compounds of interest, complicating standardization for the pharmaceutical industry. Thus, vegetative propagation emerges as a promising alternative to overcome these challenges. In this context, this study evaluated the effect of juvenility and indole acetic acid (IAA) on the rooting of L. ferrea cuttings, in addition to anatomical characterization of the cuttings to identify potential barriers to rooting. The experiment was conducted at INPA, Manaus – AM, using regrowth and juvenile cuttings prepared with one or two leaves cut in half and treated with IAA at concentrations of 0, 500, 1000, and 2000 mg L-1. After 60 days in a rooting greenhouse, the results show that regrowth cuttings had higher leaf retention (78.8%), callus formation (84.6%), rooting (65.4%), and average root number (3.0), underscoring the influence of tissue rejuvenation on rooting success. Juvenile cuttings exhibited greater bud formation (59.6%) and survival rate (86.5%), indicating that juvenility favors budding and survival. Therefore, the propagation of L. ferrea by cutting is viable and is enhanced when combined with rejuvenation techniques and the application of IAA, especially at a dose of 1000 mg L⁻¹.
Memory Reconsolidation for Unwanted Sexually Arousing Memories: A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Study
Authors: Nicolosi J. J. , Szanduła Jacek
Published: December 2024

Background: Unwanted sexually arousing memories may diminish in arousal as a by-product of memory reconsolidation processes, but the effectiveness and durability of these processes have not been well studied. Objectives: To investigate the effects of memory reconsolidation on unwanted sexually arousing memories, we evaluated three different 8-minute-long interventions in a randomized trial and compared them with the placebo. A total of 144 participants were randomly assigned to one of four conditions (three experimental and one placebo). They were asked to recall two unwanted sexually arousing memories that they rated a 7 or higher on a 0-10 subjective arousal scale. The participants rated arousability, vividness, and emotionality of memories both before and after the experiment and at 1- and 4-week follow-ups. Methods: A 2-way analysis of variance (three interventions × time) was conducted to examine the effects of time, intervention type, and their interaction on the participants’ subjective experience scores (arousal, vividness, and emotionality). Results: All three experimental interventions significantly reduced arousal, vividness, and emotionality compared to placebo. The effects were maintained at both 1-week and 4-week followup assessments. Conclusion: All three experimental interventions appear to be effective in decreasing arousability, vividness, and emotionality of two unwanted sexually arousing memories simultaneously. These interventions may benefit therapeutic contexts involving sexual abuse, paraphilic disorders, or other sexually compulsive behaviors.

Published: December 2024

The psychological evaluation of discerners of religious and priestly vocations is an important component of the admissions process to determine suitability and risk, and to ensure that representatives of religious organizations are capable of the demands of priestly ministry or religious life. It is the authors’ opinion that these assessments should be conducted by competent psychologists or counselors with expertise in both psychology and theology. As members of the Catholic Psychotherapy Association (CPA) Seminary Psychology and Assessment Special Interest Group (SIG), we have collaborated to outline baseline and aspirational guidelines for clinicians who wish to provide psychological evaluations for discerners of religious and priestly vocations. These guidelines are meant to provide an overview of best practices. They outline important aspects of confidentiality, referral-specific considerations, selecting appropriate test measures and procedures, writing comprehensive reports, and providing meaningful recommendations and feedback.
Toward a More Human Seminary Family and Community: Ways Psychology Can Better Support Seminarians and Formators Through Attachment Theory
Authors: McShane Christina
Published: December 2024

Recent updates in the Roman Catholic Church's program of seminary formation strive to respond to the current needs of the Church and seminarians in today's culture. A focus is emerging on how the Church can make use of the expertise of psychology to assist in forming men to become priests. The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops’ sixth edition of the Program for Priestly Formation establishes an initial Propaedeutic stage of seminary specifically geared toward helping men grow in greater self-awareness and a solid sense of the spiritual life. More emphasis is being placed on creating smaller communities that are a “home and school of communion,” with attention to the bonds of fraternity and fatherhood: The seminary is intended to be a family and not simply an institution. This article proposes how attachment theory provides a useful framework for understanding psychological and relational development in seminarians and offers some principles for formators to be aware of as they embrace their roles in accompaniment and community building. It draws from personal experience and provides current examples of ways psychologists may contribute to the formation of formators, promote an environment of openness and trust in the seminary, and encourage a culture that is more human and fraternal.
Hubristic pride exacerbates but authentic pride buffers a fall: Relations between pride, self-forgiveness, and clinical symptoms
Authors: Lontos Eleanor , Strelan Peter
Published: December 2024

Introduction: Self-forgiveness has been shown to be an efficacious way for transgressors to deal with their actions. This study makes two new contributions. First, it tests, for the first time, the extent to which individual differences in authentic pride and hubristic pride are differentially related to different components of selfforgiveness. Second, it tests the extent to which relations between the different components of self-forgiveness and clinical outcomes are moderated by authentic pride and hubristic pride. Method: We employed a cross-sectional design in which a sample of N = 206 recalled a negative action they had enacted. Results: We found that authentic pride is positively associated with genuine self-forgiveness and negatively with self-punitiveness and pseudo self-forgiveness, whereas relations occur in the opposite direction for hubristic pride. Further, authentic pride enhances the buffering effect of lower self-punitiveness on clinical symptoms, whereas hubristic pride magnifies the negative effect of self-punitiveness. Discussion: We discuss implications for the role of different facets of pride in the self-forgiveness process, and the clinical outcomes associated with being able to forgive oneself.
Using Biological Explanations for the Orgasm Gap to Investigate the Disproportionate Essentialization of Gender Disparities in the Sexuality Domain
Authors: Wetzel Grace M. , Sanchez Diana T.
Published: December 2024

Humans have a tendency toward essentialization or tend to believe that group differences are biological and immutable (i.e., unchangeable). In the current study, we assessed biological explanations for a well-established gender disparity in the sexuality domain: the orgasm gap. Across three studies, we found that laypeople commonly endorsed biological explanations for the orgasm gap. Furthermore, biological beliefs about the orgasm gap were correlated with greater immutability beliefs about the orgasm gap (Studies 1–2) and greater gender essentialism (Study 2). In Study 3, we found that gender disparities in the sexuality domain were viewed as more biological and immutable than gender disparities in another domain. Thus, we conclude that some gender disparities are conceptualized differently than others. We identify a need to further investigate biological beliefs for gender disparities across domains and identify the sexuality domain as a potentially useful target for interventions to reduce essentialism.
Costliness and Social Context Shape Punishment and Partner Rejection Decisions
Authors: Szanton Elizabeth C. , Martin Justin W. , McAuliffe Katherine , Young Liane
Published: December 2024

Punishment and partner rejection are two ways an actor can respond to a target's uncooperative behavior. We examine how the normativity of the transgression in its social context and the costliness of the response to the target differentially impact these two responses. When considering underperformance, an ambiguous transgression, we anticipated that (a) actors would be more likely to respond when the transgression is counternormative, (b) partner rejection would be more sensitive than punishment to normativity, (c) actors would be more likely to respond when the cost to the target is low, and (d) punishment would be more sensitive than partner rejection to costliness. Across three studies (N = 543), we found support for all hypotheses except the fourth. Our findings suggest that normativity has a unique, dissociable impact on partner rejection, while the aversion to enacting a high-cost response does not depend upon having future interactions with the target.

Jovens e adultos da EJA/EPT e o mundo do trabalho: em busca de um lugar ao sol
Authors: Ramos Lutz Mauricio , Cláudia de Oliveira da Silva Ana , Primon Soares Arioane
Published: December 2024

O artigo discute a relação entre juventude, qualificação profissional e inserção no trabalho, com foco nos desafios enfrentados por jovens e adultos da Educação de Jovens e Adultos integrada à Educação Profissional e Tecnológica (EJA/EPT). Esses sujeitos, de diferentes gerações e trajetórias, buscam superar etapas inconclusas, como a conclusão do Ensino Médio e a independência financeira, motivados por mobilidade social e melhoria de vida. A análise baseia-se no conceito plural de "juventudes", que reconhece vivências culturais, sociais e econômicas diversas, destacando interrupções nas trajetórias educacionais e profissionais. Dados do IBGE mostram altas taxas de desemprego, especialmente entre jovens e grupos étnico-raciais vulneráveis, reforçando exclusão estrutural. Embora a qualificação amplie possibilidades, não garante ocupação, devido à desvalorização de diplomas e estruturas discriminatórias. Contradições do trabalho contemporâneo, como desemprego estrutural e demandas de competências, frequentemente recaem sobre a escola. Nesse cenário, a EJA/EPT representa oportunidade, mas pode gerar frustração ao não atender expectativas dos estudantes. Assim, são necessárias políticas educacionais e econômicas integradas que transcendam a lógica mercadológica, promovendo educação crítica e cidadã, fortalecendo a luta por equidade e inclusão.

Symbolic Boundaries Among Dominican Immigrants in Europe
Authors: Liberato Ana SQ , Dinmohamed Sabrina
Published: December 2024

This paper is based on qualitative interviews with sixty-two first-generation Dominican immigrants in Switzerland and forty-five in the Netherlands. The paper aims to analyze symbolic boundaries within the Dominican community, examine the factors influencing these boundaries, and compare the Netherlands and Switzerland to identify similarities in this process. In both contexts, respondents employed constructs related to socioeconomic status, gender, migration trajectories, the perceived level of integration of coethnics, and coethnics’ income generating activities to create internal distinctions. Sex work and time of arrival constructs emerged as specific constructs of the Swiss context. As argued, we found that socioeconomic status, gender, immigration regimes and labor market opportunities, and racist integration discourses contribute to internal categorization. Pre-migration experiences play a role in perpetuating divisions.
“A Sensual People, and Doomed”
Authors: Dinniene Kendall
Published: December 2024

Fat studies scholar E. Cassandra Dame-Griff have carefully revealed that Latina/o/x bodies are routinely framed as excessive in their numbers, their assumed reproductive capacities, their overuse of supposedly “American” resources, and in the size of their physical bodies. This paper excavates a longer history of this framing, contending that the stereotype of the fat Mexican emerges in newspapers during the Mexican-American War, reflecting other efforts to naturalize the dispossession and oppression of Mexicans by associating them with Black Americans. As Sabrina Strings has shown, contemporary anti-fatness develops in service of anti-Black racism, used to shape an understanding of Black people as uncivilized, indolent, and greedy. During the middle of the nineteenth century, authors and journalists used fatness to associate these traits with Mexicans and to tacitly condone American expansion. This paper shows that, over the following one and a half centuries, the meanings invested in the figure of the fat Mexican would shift and expand, responding to changes in American politics and culture, and laying the groundwork for the twenty-first century’s anti-fat and anti-Mexican responses to immigration amid the so-called “obesity epidemic.”
The Battle That Never Happened
Authors: McEnroe Sean F.
Published: December 2024

Traditional narratives of the Mexican-American War emphasize national politics over local politics and ground-level diplomacy. This study of Saltillo argues that its leaders and inhabitants privileged their identities as local vecinos, regional citizens, and soldier-settlers over their identities as national citizens. Documentation from censuses, military recruitment, draft exemptions, and municipal councils suggests that Saltillo operated more as an autonomous city-state than as a jurisdiction subordinate to the national government. In 1847, it made a series of decisions to protect its own population, resources, and institutions by surrendering to US forces at the expense of the larger Mexican war effort.

Through conventional solid-state sintering process, PbNb2O6:Yb3+, Ln3+ (Ln3+=Er3+/Ho3+)
ceramics have been fabricated. The structural information of synthesized ceramics was
obtained via X-ray diffraction. Scanning electron microscopy was utilized to investigate
their morphological properties. The investigation of upconversion photoluminescence
properties of the synthesized ceramics was conducted by analyzing upconversion emission
spectra upon excitation with 980 nm light. Power dependence studies confirmed the
presence of two-photon absorption processes in both PbNb2O6:Yb3+, Er3+ and
PbNb2O6:Yb3+, Ho3+ ceramics. Temperature-dependent experiments from 303 K to 513 K
demonstrated significant variations in emission intensities and fluorescence intensity ratios
(FIR), enabling the assessment of temperature changes. The absolute sensitivity of
PbNb2O6 ceramic co-doped with Yb3+, Er3+ ions reached its maximum value of 0.0056 K-1
at 513 K, while the maximum relative sensitivity of 0.697% K-1 was recorded at 339 K.
For PbNb2O6 ceramic co-doped with Yb3+, Ho3+ ions, the maximum values of absolute and
relative sensitivities were 0.048 K-1 and 0.8% K-1 at 513 K and 473 K, respectively. These
results highlight the potential applications of PbNb2O6:Yb3+, Ln3+ (Ln3+=Er3+/Ho3+)
ceramics in advanced temperature sensing based on photoluminescence.
X-Ray Diffraction Analysis of Sigma-Phase Evolution in Equimolar AlCoCrFeNi High Entropy Alloy
Authors: Hussain Mudassar , Mohd Najib Abdillah Sani , Fadil Nor Akmal , Abu Bakar Tuty Asma
Published: December 2024

Novel equimolar AlCoCrFeNi high entropy alloy (HEA), as a promising candidate for demanding engineering applications has recently received considerable attention due to its random solid solution structure. It confers its synergy of high strength, ductility, high-temperature structure stability and corrosion resistance. Thermally assisted spinodal dissolution from BCC random solid solution (B1) to ordered BCC (B2) and precipitation of brittle σ-phase renders its ability to undergo as an alloy for thermomechanical processing. Therefore, it was necessary to manifest σ-phase nucleation and growth from homogenization temperature (1250oC) at different cooling rates, i.e., furnace cooled and water quenched along with variation in σ-phase crystallite size at transformation temperature (800oC) in Fibonacci time frame (1h, 2h, 4h, 8h, and 16h) to know hot working temperature range and post treatment. An equimolar AlCoCrFeNi high-entropy alloy fabricated via vacuum induction melting was subjected to ICP-MS and XRD analysis to confirm its chemical composition and crystal structure distribution. The XRD results were further analyzed by using Scherrer’s equation and Williamsons-Hall plot to calculate the crystallite size of σ-phase and its associated microstrain. The work aimed to determine the σ-phase reversibility from homogenization temperature 1250oC and crystallite size growth at transformation temperature (800oC) to reveal the importance of thermomechanical processing parameters of equimolar AlCoCrFeNi HEA. In the present study, remarkable retention of the FCC phase was witnessed during furnace cooling and its traces appeared during rapid cooling. The vital phenomenon of FCC-phase nucleation signifies the key importance of the transformation zone, revealing its effect on the post-treatment cooling rate. However, its coupled phenomenon of the tetragonal σ-phase formation remained suppressed during cooling from homogenization temperature (1250οC). It determined the wide hot workability range of equimolar AlCoCrFeNi HEA to make it a suitable candidate for bulk engineering applications.
Optical methods of Earth remote sensing and prospects for their use in commercial spacecraf

Commercial remote sensing spacecraft currently use optical multispectral and hyperspectral, thermal infrared and radar imaging methods. At the same time, the capabilities of existing and promising remote sensing methods are not fully utilized in commercial satellites. Trends in the development of optical remote sensing methods are analyzed with the aim to determine prospects for the application of these methods in commercial remote sensing satellites. Optical multispectral, hyperspectral, and lidar imaging and methods based on chlorophyll fluorescence measurement are considered. It is shown that multispectral optical imaging is developing by way of increasing the number of spectral channels, using narrower channels, and increasing the spatial resolution in tasks of detailed and survey imaging and by way of increasing the repeatability of imaging without reducing the spatial resolution due to the use of constellations of inexpensive small satellites. Hyperspectral and lidar imaging face the problems of processing and transmission of a large amount of data. A promising way to solve these problems is to process data immediately onboard the spacecraft. In lidar imaging, there are prerequisites for the formation of a constellation of satellites to provide a regular annual global coverage of the Earth's dry land. Remote sensing methods based on chlorophyll fluorescence are at the stage of accumulation and generalization of experimental data. At the same time, these methods open new opportunities in solving many ecological and agricultural problems. The integration of spectral and structural information provided by optical imaging methods and lidars may be used in the future to solve a wide range of problems. It is possible to form orbital constellations in which individual satellites will use different remote sensing methods and constellations of universal satellites equipped with several types of imaging devices.
Mathematical modeling of determining the kinetic parameters of charged plasma particles using an insulated probe system in the ionospheric conditions
Authors:   Institute of Technical Mechanics of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine and the State Space Agency of Ukraine, Lazuchenkov D.N.
Published: December 2024

The goal of this article is to theoretically substantiate the possibility of determining the kinetic parameters of charged particles of the ionospheric plasma by measuring the currents of an insulated probe system in the electron saturation region.
Methods of physical modeling, numerical integration of nonlinear differential equations, measurement uncertainty analysis, and computer modeling were used.
The probe system consists of cylindrical electrodes: a probe and a reference electrode. The ratio of the reference electrode and the probe areas can be significantly smaller than required by the single cylindrical probe theory. The electrodes are placed transversely in a supersonic free-molecular plasma flow.
The charged particle composition of the ionospheric plasma is modeled by positive ions of atomic oxygen and atomic hydrogen and by electrons, which ensure plasma quasi-neutrality. Along with a mathematical model of plasma with two ion species, a model of a one-component plasma is considered with the ion mass selected so that the ion saturation current to the cylinder may be the same for both models. Based on an earlier asymptotic solution for the electron saturation current in a one-component plasma, the kinetic parameters of charged particles (the ion temperature and directed velocity and the electron temperature) were related to the measured probe currents. A numerical and an analytical study of this relationship within the framework of the mathematical model of a plasma with two ion species resulted in analytical expressions for determining the kinetic parameters of charged particles from the measured currents of the insulated probe system in the electron saturation region.
The errors of the analytical expressions in determining the kinetic parameters of a plasma with two ion species were estimated numerically and analytically as a function of the probe system’s electrode area ratio and the probe current measurement accuracy.
The ranges of the probe system parameters that maximize the measurement reliability in the ionospheric conditions were determined

Published: December 2024

Nas últimas décadas, houve uma grande evolução da medicina referente ao diagnóstico e ao tratamento de doenças infecciosas, melhorando a sobrevida dos pacientes. Mesmo que esse fato também seja verdade para os pacientes transplantados renais, a infecção ainda é uma causa importante de mortalidade nessa população. O estudo de Ying et al. (2020), que avaliou 23.210 pacientes transplantados renais de 1980 a 2018, identificou que infecção foi a terceira principal causa de morte entre os pacientes que faleceram, representando 16,9% das mortes. Além disso, o estudo também observou que, em pacientes que tiveram rejeição de enxerto, infecção também foi a terceira principal causa de morte, representando 19% do total (Ying et al., 2020). Dessa forma, um processo infeccioso pode estar relacionado com a perda do enxerto e a uma maior taxa de mortalidade de pacientes transplantados.

A ideia da realização de transplantes de órgãos não é atual; desde a Antiguidade o ser humano tem demonstrado interesse nesse tipo de atividade. Evidências de autotransplante e aloenxerto de tecidos não viscerais estão presentes em textos da Antiguidade. Contudo, o transplante de órgãos teve uma grande evolução a partir do século 20. O que antes era uma prática experimental e com muitos riscos atualmente é uma grande estratégia usual de tratamento para diversas doenças (Linden, 2009).

Here, we report new localities in Chile for Eristalinus (Eristalodes) taeniops (Wiedeman, 1818), Toxomerus politus (Say, 1823), and Pseudoscaeva meridionalis (Fluke, 1951) and provide updated distributions and new records of these species in other New World countries. We discuss the potential negative impacts of these exotic syrphids on native species in Chile and highlight the power of opportunistic recording in detecting exotic species.

The influence of different strawberry varieties on the microbiological, antioxidant and sensory properties of probiotic yoghurt, containing Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis Bb12, were monitored for 21 days. For this purpose, strawberry pulp (15 %) containing strawberry and sugar in a 1:1 ratio was used in the yoghurt formulation. Higher total phenolic content and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) were detected in Albion and Camarosa varieties than Rubygem whereas Albion variety had the highest total anthocyanin content (p<0.05). Colour parameters (L*, a*, b*) of probiotic yoghurts differed significantly with the incorporation of strawberry pulp. The viable counts of yoghurt starter bacteria in the experimental yoghurts remained above 7.64 log cfu/g throughout the storage period. Addition of probiotic yoghurt with strawberry pulp enhanced the viability of S. thermophilus and L. bulgaricus depending on the variety of strawberry. A similar effect on B. lactis viability was observed in fruit probiotic yoghurt samples except the 1st day of storage. The counts of B. lactis were above 8.5 log cfu/g throughout the storage period. The highest total phenolic content, antioxidant activity (FRAP) and total anthocyanin content were found in Albion variety added probiotic yoghurt during the storage period. Sensory characteristics of probiotic yoghurt were not generally influenced by the addition of strawberry while sample enriched with Camarosa variety showed the lowest overall acceptability scores on 14th day.

Objetive: The objective is to analyze the levels of oxygen using pulse oximetry (SatO2) reached and maintained by critical patients during the Rapid Sequence Intubation (RSI) for airway maintenance.
Methods: Cross-sectional descriptive study developed in every patient that has required of airway maintenance in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of the Universitary Poniente Hospital. We collected and analyzed the data of all the patients subjected to airway maintenance through orotracheal intubation or any other alternative technique during 2019 in this ICU.
Results: We have registered the data of nineteen patients (fourteen men, five women) aged between 18 and 80 years old who were admitted into the ICU due to different pathologies and required airway maintenance: Acute Respiratory Failure (ARF)(6), Community Acquired Pneumonia (3), Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding (UGB) associated with hemorrhagic shock (2), and diverse pathologies (8). They have been subjected to the use of different patterns of RSI alongside apneic oxygenation previous to airway maintenance and their levels of oxygen using SatO2 have been recorded both at the beginning and the end of the technique. Focusing on that parameter after the end of the airway maintenance, out of those nineteen patients, twelve (63,15%) have maintained SatO2 levels above the security limit established to be 92%, with seven of them (42,11%) consistently keeping a SatO2 of 100%. There have been records of seven patients (36,85%) suffering from a significant oxygen desaturation, with four of them (21,05%) being below the 80% range.
Conclusions: The monitoring of the SatO2 is an essential monitoring mechanism for airway maintenance techniques in the critical patient, with said levels being affected by numerous variables, with the most important one in our study being the pathology that made it necessary to give the patient an artificial airway passage.

Introduction. A thorough evaluation of the calculations used to determine the boundaries of urban planning projects enables a comprehensive understanding of the socio-economic, cultural, and labor connections between cities and settlements. The significance of developing agglomerations in resource-limited environments lies in their potential to achieve a synergistic effect, where the whole exceeds the sum of its parts.  Objectives. The research aims to identify the functional boundaries of the Shymkent agglomeration. Materials and Methods. The boundaries of the Shymkent agglomeration were determined using a methodological approach that integrates the agglomeration development coefficient, Reilly's gravitational theory, and GIS technologies. Results and Discussion. Potential countermagnet cities were identified by employing GIS technologies to calculate the force of demographic gravity from proximate settlements to the city of Shymkent. These cities serve as centers of attraction that intercept migration flows towards Shymkent, thus assisting in mitigating excess population growth in the city. Conclusions. The strategic development of suburban settlements and key nodes within the Shymkent agglomeration can effectively manage urban growth challenges, promoting a balanced and sustainable development pattern. it is necessary to prevent the spontaneous growth of settlements caused by population growth, which leads to the formation of imbalances in comprehensive service systems and provides workplaces that can provoke social tensions.

A equidade de gênero ainda precisa ser fomentada na sociedade e a educação pode contribuir para mudar este cenário. Nesta pesquisa, objetivamos investigar o impacto de uma sequência didática envolvendo o Ensino de Ciências por Investigação e ações voltadas para equidade de gênero e desconstrução de estereotipias na promoção de uma participação mais equitativa entre meninas e meninos adolescentes. Trata-se de uma pesquisa-ação em uma atividade extensionista, que analisou dados avaliativos proveninentes de videogravações e questionários. A análise envolveu a imersão nos dados, sua categorização e codificação e a determinação de regras de contagem. Os resultados apontam que o Ensino de Ciências por Investigação e as ações conjuntamente planejadas podem ajudar a evitar exemplos sexistas, fomentar exemplos da participação das mulheres nas Ciências e possibilitar a equidade de participação entre meninas e meninos possibilitando-lhes interação e engajamentos equitativos. Entre os desafios identificados temos: a maior dificuldade de estimular a argumentação e a explicação tanto de meninas como de meninos, e estimular a participação verbal dos alunas/os pouco participativas/os.
Eleven Theses on Literature and Emotion
Authors: Sandberg Eric
Published: December 2024

Eric Sandberg’ article “Eleven Theses on Literature and Emotion” takes its form—and its inspiration—from Karl Marx’s Theses on Feuerbach, “two of the most concise and stimulating pages within [his] entire corpus” (Loftus 158). This means that rather than presenting a singular primary claim at the outset, and demonstrating its validity through evidence and argumentation, it offers eleven separate theses centring on and around the intersection of literature, teaching, and emotion. Taken as a whole, these claims both gradually develop a claim about the primacy of emotion in literary education, and explore a broader set of interrelated ideas about what we teach in the university literature classroom, why and how we teach it, and the role that emotion plays in those processes.
Vrede. Om att fångas av en stämning
Authors: Asklund Jonas
Published: December 2024

Jonas Asklunds artikel ”Vrede. Om att fångas av en stämning” handlar om de möjligheter som erbjuds när litteratursamtalen i klassrummet tar fasta på läsarens inledande känslomässiga reaktioner under läsningen. Syftet med studien är att visa hur sådana svåra känslor som upplevd irritation, beklämdhet och utmattning kan göras didaktiskt relevanta om litteratursamtalets deltagare får sätta dem i relation till de gestaltade människornas livsöden, berättelsens bärande tema och sättet att framställa den på. Det teoretiska ramverk som används i studien är responsteoretiskt med särskilt fokus på litterära texters förmåga att styra läsarens emotionella och kognitiva upplevelser (Felski, 2020). En diskussion förs även om läsarens förhållande till texten, författaren och den egna livsvärlden med hjälp av begreppet läsart (Tengberg, 2011). Materialet i studien utgörs av von Mickwitz kortprosaskiss ”Mässling” (1886). Med närläsningen som metod görs gällande att författarens val av berättarperspektiv, typ av fokalisering och form av genre kan sättas i samband med den starkt samhällskritiska tendensen i skönlitteraturen under 1880-talet. Den litteraturdidaktiska slutsats som dras är att läsarnas känslor av obehag bör bejakas när läraren söker en ingång in i litteratursamtalet.
Onkel Toms stuga på litteraturlistan? Engagerade studenter och bruket av litteraturhistorien
Authors: Arping Åsa
Published: December 2024

Åsa Arpings artikel ”Onkel Toms stuga på litteraturlistan? Engagerade studenters bruk av litteraturhistorien” kretsar kring föränderliga praktiker inom litteraturhistorieundervisningen, med utgångspunkt i den affektiva vändningen och författarens egna erfarenheter av att diskutera Harriet Beecher Stowes storsäljare i en studentgrupp utifrån en rak fråga: bör ett verk som detta ingå i undervisningen om 1800-talsromanen – varför, eller varför inte? Författaren beskriver att oavsett vilken inställning studenterna hade till frågan utmynnade diskussionen i en provkarta på olika sätt att använda litteraturhistorien: för att komma närmare historiska skeenden, förstå litteraturens och läsningens betydelse i olika tider och sammanhang, eller synliggöra aktuella frågor om etik och medansvar, rasism och triggervarningar. Genom att placera dessa argument i dialog med Rita Felskis begreppsapparat kring engagerad läsning, särskilt i Uses of Literature (2008) och Hooked: Art and Attachment (2020), argumenterar författaren för att universitetslärare bör ta fasta på de ofta starka känslor som litteratur i bästa fall väcker bland studenter; ett engagemang som i sin tur kan ge nya insikter i skönlitteraturens föränderliga funktion – såväl i utbildningssammanhang och samhällsdebatt som i människors vardag. Frågan är hur vi kan ge plats åt studenternas olikartade, och ofta kolliderande åsikter, utan att fastna i polarisering, och hur kan en omstridd klassiker som Onkel Toms stuga få ny relevans i ett föränderligt utbildningslandskap?
