Published: June 2022

Background and Aims

Screen media activity (SMA) may impact neurodevelopment in youth. Cross-sectionally, SMA has been linked to brain structural patterns including cortical thinning in children. However, it remains unclear whether specific brain structural co-variation patterns are related to SMA and other clinically relevant measures such as psychopathology, cognition and sleep in children.

Methods

Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) participants with useable baseline structural imaging (N = 10,691; 5,107 girls) were analyzed. We first used the Joint and Individual Variation Explained (JIVE) approach to identify cortical and subcortical covariation pattern(s) among a set of 221 brain features (i.e., surface area, thickness, or cortical and subcortical gray matter (GM) volumes). Then, the identified structural covariation pattern was used as a predictor in linear mixed-effect models to investigate its associations with SMA, psychopathology, and cognitive and sleep measures.

Results

A thalamus-prefrontal cortex (PFC)-brainstem structural co-variation pattern (circuit) was identified. The pattern suggests brainstem and bilateral thalamus proper GM volumes covary more strongly with GM volume and/or surface area in bilateral superior frontal gyral, rostral middle frontal, inferior parietal, and inferior temporal regions. This covariation pattern highly resembled one previously linked to alcohol use initiation prior to adulthood and was consistent in girls and boys. Subsequent regression analyses showed that this co-variation pattern associated with SMA (β = 0.107, P = 0.002) and externalizing psychopathology (β = 0.117, P = 0.002), respectively.

Discussion and Conclusions

Findings linking SMA-related structural covariation to externalizing psychopathology in youth resonate with prior studies of alcohol-use initiation and suggest a potential neurodevelopmental mechanism underlying addiction vulnerability.

Published: June 2022

Stripe (yellow) rust disease caused by Puccinia striifarmis f. sp. tritici, is a catastrophic wheat disease in wheat-growing regions around the world. The objective of this study was to investigate potential sources of stripe rust resistance and the yield loss of forty local wheat varieties at four locations in Egypt (Sakha, Mutubas, Qillin and Biyala), under yellow rust disease pressure compared to ‘Morroco’ variety, as control. To determine slow rusting in the field, the following parameters were recorded: final rust severity (FRS%), average coefficient of infection (ACI), relative resistance index (RRI) and reduction % in the 1000 kernel weight. The severity was higher in the second season than in the first. Seven wheat genotypes (‘Shaka 62’, ‘Shaka 9, ‘Shaka 95’, ‘Gemmiza 7’, ‘Sids 14’ and ‘Misr 3’) showed the high level of resistance, and FRS% values ranged from 0 to 20 moderately resistant (MR) during first season and achieved the least value of loss in TKW (1.28%) with ‘Misr 3’. Meanwhile, four genotypes (‘Sakha 93’, ‘Sakha 95’, ‘Sids 14’ and ‘Gim. 7’) remained highly resistant during the second season and identified to have good level of slow rusting resistance, which these genotypes showed FRS% values ranged from 5R to 30 moderately resistant-moderately susceptible (MRMS), ACI values ≤12, RRI values ≥6 and the loss % in TKW not exceed 12.54%.  On the other hand, the lines; ‘Shaka 69’, ‘Shaka 88’, ‘Shaka 92’, ‘Giza 160’, ‘Giza 163’, ‘Gem 11’, ‘Sids 2’ and ‘Sids 6’ exhibited complete susceptibility at the four tested sites, recorded FRS% values >50. Meanwhile, cv. ‘Gem 11’ in 2018/2019 recorded the highest level of ACI ≥55, the lowest level of RRI≤4.05 and the highest loss% in TKW reached 40.69%. These findings could be used in the national wheat breeding program for stripe rust resistance in Egypt.

Dendrochronological potential of conifers from Ayubia National Park, Pakistan was determined. A total of four conifer species (Abies pindrow (Royle ex D. Don), Cedrus deodara (Roxb. ex D. Don), Pinus wallichiana A.B. Jacks. and Taxus baccata L.) were studied from different elevations. Comparative analysis of DBH-growth rate and DBH-age were performed among the species with maximum age showed by A. pindrow of 456 years with 0.01 cm/year growth rate. P. wallichiana was found to be fast growing with 0.05 cm/year growth among other species while C. deodara trees were having the strongest correlation between their age and DBH values (R2= 0.9225). Quality of cross dating and accuracy of tree ring measurements was checked by COFECHA. Mean sensitivity of all species ranges from 0.265 to 0.328 with auto-correlations range from 0.562 to 0.712 which specified the dendrochronological significance of these conifers. ARSTAN program was used for autoregressive modeling to remove any possible variance other than climatic disturbance and to standardize the tree ring chronologies. Tree-ring variations were evident among all the cores possessing distinct wide and narrow fluctuations of ring growth with A. pindrow (Avg. mean ring width = 1.46 mm) and T. baccata (Avg. mean ring width = 1.80 mm). All the conifer species showed good climatic signals in their tree ring measurements and are valuable for the dendroclimatic growth response investigations.

Published: June 2022

The TIFY family, a plant-specific gene family with the conserved motif of TIF[F/Y]XG, plays important roles in plant growth, development and abiotic stress response. This family encodes four subfamilies of proteins, including ZIM-like (ZML), TIFY, PPD and JASMONATE ZIM-domain (JAZ). In this study, 17 TIFY family genes were identified in cucumber through genome-wide analysis, including one PPD, two TIFYs, four ZMLs, and 10 JAZs. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that TIFY proteins from cucumber and other plant species can be divided into seven groups, which were designated as TIFY, JAZ I–IV, ZML and PPD. An analysis of conserved domain distribution demonstrated that there are four other domains (Jas, CCT, PPD and GATA domains) in CsTIFY proteins. Tissue expression profiling of the CsTIFY genes revealed that some of them displayed development- and tissue-specific expression patterns. Expression analysis based on transcriptome data and qRT-PCR revealed that the expression levels of some cucumber TIFY genes were altered under multiple abiotic stresses. In addition, several CsJAZ genes were downregulated in cucumber plants under root-knot nematode (RKN) infection, suggesting that they negatively affect the resistance response of cucumber to RKN. Our findings lay a foundation for further functional studies of the TIFY family genes in cucumber.

Published: June 2022

Dittany of Crete (Origanum dictamnus L.) is a threatened medicinal-aromatic plant of Lamiaceae family which is a local endemic to the Island of Crete, Greece. Its high culinary use and increasing demand in the pharma, perfumery, cosmetic and food industry along with its overexploitation from its natural habitat has threatened this species and has necessitated its large-scale production for industrial exploitations using advanced technologies. Micropropagation is considered a good tool for ex situ conservation of endangered species with reduced populations in the wild, low germination rates and low seed production. In this study, moderate germination percentages (40-41.38%) were exhibited for seeds after 40 days of culture at 21-23 oC in MS medium regardless of photoperiod regime (16h light/ 8h dark, 24h darkness), without significance difference. In the proliferation and rooting stage, three basal culture media (MS, WPM, Gamborg B5) were tested in combination with two concentrations of 6-benzyladenine (BA) (1.1, 2.2 μM) and indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) (0.125, 0.25 μM), all supplemented with 0.3 μM gibberellic acid (GA3), 20 g L-1 sucrose and 6 g L-1 Plant Agar (pH: 5.8). The results showed that the MS medium + 2.2 μM BA + 0.25 μM IBA was the most effective treatment for micropropagation of shoot nodal explants in a single stage within a 30-day culture period, exhibiting 85% shoot formation, 1.8 new shoots/ explant 2.8 cm long with a 3.2 proliferation rate, 100% rooting, 16.5 roots/ rooted explant 2.1 cm long. Rooted plants obtained in vitro from MS medium enriched with 2.2 μM BA + 0.25 μM IBA gave 100% ex vitro survival rate on a peat: perlite (1:1 v/v) substrate mixture after 2 months in the greenhouse mist. In this study, an efficient in vitro propagation system of O. dictamnus is described for the first time through optimization of direct organogenesis stages (seed germination, proliferation, rooting, ex vitro acclimatization), as a means to facilitate domestication procedure, ex-situ conservation and future sustainable exploitation strategies, thus promoting wider usability of this local endemic with significant commercial potential.
Prevalence, molecular characterization, and variety reactions of Neoscytalidium novaehollandiae on mulberries in Turkey
Authors: OKSAL Erçin
Published: June 2022

Turkey is one of noteworthy countries for both fruit genetic resources and amount of fruit production in the world. Mulberry is cultivated throughout Turkey, most commonly in Central, Northeast and Southeast Anatolia. Mulberry has a great market potential thanks to its fresh consumption and usage of processed food products. In June 2019, a disease was observed causing deaths in shoots and branches on mulberry trees in Malatya province of Turkey. The causative agent of the disease was identified as Neoscytalidium novaehollandiae according to morphological characteristics and sequencing of TEF 1-α gene (Accession no. MT362602 and MT362603), ITS (Accession no. MT195554 and MT195555) and LSU (Accession no. MT195552 and MT195553). Based on the concatenated sequences of the ITS, TEF 1-α, and LSU, a phylogenetic tree was built using Bayesian analysis. Reactions of nine mulberry cultivars against the disease (‘Ulukale’, ‘Ayaş’, ‘Ichinose’, ‘Poser’, ‘Kenmochi’, ‘Arapgir’, ‘Sarı aşı’, ‘Horum’ and ‘Istanbul’) inoculated with Malatya isolate of N. novaehollandiae were evaluated under growth chamber conditions. All-mulberry cultivars artificially inoculated with N. novaehollandiae isolate exhibited severe necrosis symptoms on woody tissues of tested plants. It was confirmed that N. novaehollandiae is a fungal pathogen associated with dieback and canker on mulberry trees in Turkey for the first time. New mulberry plantations could be endangered by this emerging new disease.

Fertilization with nanoparticles offers alternatives to improve the efficiency of nutrient absorption in a sustainable way in crops. The objective of this work was to study the influence of foliar application of zinc-molybdenum nanofertilizer (Nano ZnMo) on nitrogen (N) use efficiency (NUE), as well as on yield parameters and N assimilation in green bean plants cv. “Strike”. Three doses of Nano ZnMo (0, 4 and 8 ppm) were applied foliar in combination with four doses of N in the form of NH4NO3 in nutrient solution (0, 3, 6 and 12 mM). The treatment that obtained the greatest increase in total biomass was the combination of 6 mM N + 4 ppm Nano ZnMo, with an increase of 11.6% compared to the treatment without application of Nano ZnMo. The treatment that registered the highest yield was the combination of 3 mM of N + 4 ppm of Nano ZnMo with an increase of 39.3% compared to the treatment without foliar application of Nano ZnMo (3 mM of N). The utilization coefficients (NUtE) and NUE were favored with the foliar application of Nano ZnMo at 4 ppm in combination with 3 and 6 mM of N in nutrient solution. These treatments made it possible to reduce the dose of N fertilization without compromising production. Therefore, the foliar adhesion of Nano ZnMo makes it possible to improve the efficiency of nutrient absorption and sustainably increase crop productivity.

Published: June 2022

Aloe vera (Aloe barbadensis Miller) is widely spread around the world and it is used in the food and cosmetic industry and traditional medicine due to its high content in bioactive compounds. Thus, this article investigated the phenolic compounds of Romanian Aloe vera gel and its antioxidant capacity.  The gel was extracted using 4 different solvents: methanol, ethanol, water, and acetone. Total phenolics were measured by the Folin-Ciocalteu method, total flavonoids by aluminium chloride reaction, and the antioxidant capacity by DPPH radical-scavenging activity. The profile of the phenolic compound was determined using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and Liquid Chromatography-Diode Array Detection–Electro-Spray Ionization Mass Spectrometry. The methanolic extract had a significantly higher antioxidant activity, followed by ethanolic, water, and acetone extracts. The methanolic extract had also the highest total polyphenol content, while ethanolic extract had the highest total flavonoid content. The extracts contained 14 compounds identified as 7 chromones (Aloesin, Neoaloesin, Aloinoside A, Aloinoside E, Aloe-emodin-glucoside, Isoaloeresin D, Methoxycoumaroyl-aloresin) 2 flavones (Luteolin-glucoside, Apigenin-glucoside), one hydroxycinnamic acid (Caffeic acid) and 4 to anthrones (Aloin A, Aloin B, Emodin, Aloe-emodin). The LC-MS results showed important quantities of Aloesin, Neoaloesin, Aloeresin E, and Aloe-emodin-glucoside while FTIR analysis showed the presence of polysaccharides, pectins, anthraquinones, and saponins.

The objective of this study was to determine the antioxidant activity and bio compounds induced by salicylic acid (AS) and potassium (K) in ‘Flame’ grape peel and pulp. The applications were made in table grape of the ‘Flame’ variety, with 9 treatments and 3 repetitions, T1 control 0.0 (T2 AS 0.0, K 5 mM) (T3 AS 2.0, K 5.0 mM) (T4 AS 2.0, K 0 mM) (T5 AS 0.100, K 0.250 mM) (T6 AS 0.100, K 2. 50 mM) (T7 AS 1, K 2. 50 mM) (T8 AS 1, K .250 mM) (T9 AS 0. 25, K .625 mM) with 6 applications in the veraison stage throughout the cycle. The parameters of antioxidant capacity were determined by the DPPH and FRAP method, phenols, anthocyanins, flavonoids, pH, oBrix, titratable acidity and physical parameters in grape peel and pulp. Doses of AS 2.0, K 0 mM; AS 1, K 2.50 mM; and AS 0.25, K .625 mM influenced the increase in quality, as well as the bioactive and antioxidant activity. Anthocyanins were the main phenols in peel with 406.08 mg (C3G)/g-1. ‘Flame’ table grape peels have a high content of compounds, favouring the antioxidant activity. A serving of unpeeled table grapes could provide up to 110 mg of phenols. The use of salicylic acid and potassium can be an alternative to enrich the nutritional quality of the grape and benefit the health of the population.

Published: June 2022

The impact of hearing and speech can cause people to become friends or feel lonely, adversely affecting their social and professional lives. Figuring out the meaning of a sign is not an easy task. Sign language is a well-structured gesture code where each gesture has a meaning assigned
to it. Sign language is the only means of communication for the deaf. With the advancement of science and technology, many kinds of research and techniques have been born that not only reduce difficulties for deaf and dumb people but also can be deployed in different fields of work. Sign language
is a language that instead of voice or sound patterns uses human communication and body language to convey the meaning. This involves mostly the mixing of shapes, orientation, and movement of the hands. Sign language is not only used by the deaf but also by those who can hear but cannot physically
speak to any other people. Sign language is the language used by deaf and mute people that uses gestures instead of sound to convey or to express fluidly a speaker's thoughts. A gesture in sign language is a particular movement of the hands with a specific symbol made out of them. The main
objective of this paper is to present a system capable of converting sign language gestures to auditory speech efficiently. A glove can help people who cannot speak. In glove sign language, we'll convert the sign into sentences so that we can easily communicate with this person. Several languages
are spoken around the world. So this system aims to provide voice output in different regional languages
Impact of EBG on Microstrip Patch Antenna
Authors: Mukhopadhyay Arunava , Choudhuri Sayantani
Published: June 2022

The correct use of electromagnetic band structures (EBG) becomes very interesting in the field of electromagnetic theory and antenna design. The use of electromagnetic band- gap (EBG) structures constructed with microstrip technology is one of the efficient techniques to reduce interconnection
problems. This article proposes a three-layer dielectric substrate with four holes or air cylinders forming an EBG structure with an insert feed technique. Here the idea is to use the specified structure in the mid layer of dielectrics. In order to improve over surface wave losses, the necessity
of introducing EBG structures is appeared. The achievement of higher efficiency and enhanced bandwidth is feasible by proper impedance matching during the feeding mechanism. The structure is designed for the resonant frequency of 2.4 GHz and the entire simulation is performed with Ansoft High
Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS) version 11.
ITPA‐associated developmental and epileptic encephalopathy: characteristic neuroradiological features with novel clinical and biochemical findings
Authors: Garg Meenal , Goraya Jatinder , Kochar Gurpreet , Jain Vivek
Published: June 2022

Developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEE) in children have an everexpanding range of rare causes. Mutations in ITPA have been recently described as causative of DEE, but only a small number of patients have been reported so far. We describe two Indian children with novel variants in the ITPA gene. Both patients had characteristic, previously described, neuroradiological findings that helped us suspect this condition even before genetic evaluation. In addition, we present new and rarely reported clinical findings associated with this condition: migrating partial epilepsy, fever‐triggered seizures, movement disorder including oculogyria and dystonic tremor. One of the patients also had high cerebrospinal fluid glycine levels. Both patients had drug‐responsive epilepsy, in contrast to drug‐resistant seizures in previously reported patients. These patients reiterate the utility of awareness of specific neuroradiological findings and subsequent genetic evaluation to help make a precise diagnosis. Our report also extends the clinical spectrum and provides insight into possible biochemical causes for the neuroimaging findings seen in this condition.

Published: June 2022

Objective. Déjà‐vu is a mental phenomenon commonly experienced during temporal lobe seizures and can be evoked by electrical stimulation of the temporal lobe. We analyzed reproducible déjà‐vu experiences evoked by stimulating the insula in two patients with pharmacoresistant temporal lobe epilepsy.

Methods. We reviewed video‐electroencephalography (EEG) recordings from extraoperative electrical cortical stimulation sessions. In addition, we performed the directed transfer function (DTF) effective connectivity measure of monopolar signals in Patient 1. To highlight elective changes due to each stimulation, we subtracted pre‐stimulation DTF matrices from early poststimulation matrices. This analysis was performed for both non‐inducing‐déjàvu stimulation (control matrix) and déjà‐vu‐inducing stimulation (active matrix). Finally, the control matrix was subtracted from the active matrix.

Results. Comparison of effective connectivity during control stimulation versus déjà‐vu‐inducing stimulation revealed a reversal of connectivity levels in three main regions: the contralateral inferior insula (the ipsilateral insula could not be analyzed), bilateral mesiotemporal regions and the ipsilateral superior frontal gyrus. The drivers of evoked déjà‐vu were the mesiotemporal regions (mainly ipsilateral) and the ipsilateral superior frontal gyrus.

Significance. Although our findings are possibly anecdotal, the insula may (in rare instances) remotely generate unexpected déjà‐vu. If confirmed by further studies, this might change the assessment strategy for possible causes of anterior temporal lobectomy failure.

I'm not going to reveal a number of not so everyday things with reference to this action. I'm going to throw the spotlight on that way for a while. They run one of the most considerate MetaboFix businesses around. It's a dog-eat-dog world. I wonder though about the stability of interlopers using this. I feel that you are anticipating what I must say here. They need to do that MetaboFixto solve that. For most of us it amounts to a large-scale makeover of the way we gather as it concerns the viewpoint. It is a worry free solution. The end justifies the means in this case. You know, I'm in the house. This installment will take a look at why MetaboFix shopping is so hard and will try to give a few awareness into how to buyMetaboFix Weight Loss Supplement. That's not over till it's over. That isn't much to my bewilderment. There is so much to understand here. MetaboFixI come from a multi-faceted background and it's uncertain, even if it was so. They have made a couple of significant claims in regard to it recently. A major competitor produced a stink bomb of a MetaboFix. Try typing 'MetaboFix' into Facebook. Indubitably, they might want to look closer at it. My jocks currently know that. This is like what my sponsor relates, "You win many of you lose some." There are a multitude different thing that you can do with this yet some big wigs just refuse to do that. We're highlighting some things right here. Permit me tell you this, nobody ever accomplished it by playing it safe. Do something with my avocation if you can. This was rather humorous. Can you tell if my materialization is paid for? What I need is a new market for this. Do you feel as if you're being led down the primrose path?

The other week, I just saw one of the most incredible examples of MetaboFix that I had ever seen in my life. Tell me, "For want of the nail, the shoe was lost."

I might need to concentrate on the present state of that shift. As a matter of fact, that's applicable to all a point.

Relationship between Maternal Touch, Maternal Self-Confidence, Infant Length, and Feeding Volume in High-Risk Infants: Touch on the Mind
Authors: Jang Youn Jung , Han Kuem Sun
Published: June 2022

Background: Childbirth is a physical and emotional experience. In particular, mothers of high-risk infants often exhibit low maternal self-confidence. Through interactions in the form of touch, maternal sensory stimulation provides comfort for both mother and baby. This study aims to investigate the association between maternal touch in the early postpartum period and the growth of infants as well as maternal self-confidence.Methods: Thirty-six mother-infant dyads in a level III-IV Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) were analyzed. Maternal touch on various body parts (extremities, face/head, and trunk) was observed, and infant length and feeding volume were assessed by direct measurement of the medical records. Maternal self-confidence was assessed using a questionnaire. Along with descriptive statistics, we conducted correlation and Mann-Whitney U tests.Results: Although maternal self-confidence decreased over time, that of mothers with a high level of contact with the infant’s face/head or extremities decreased significantly less than that of mothers in the low-contact group. For the baby, the feeding volume of infants with a high degree of maternal contact on their extremities or trunk increased significantly compared with that of the low-contact group.Conclusions: Mothers’ self-confidence may not improve as the infant grows, but can be strengthened by enhanced touch on the infant’s face/head. Touching the infant’s trunk is related to infant feeding. The research findings emphasize the importance of early maternal touch in the NICU environment and recommend the provision of maternal touch to appropriate body parts to achieve the desired objectives.
Development and Validation of a Brief Measure of Hardiness for the Korean Population
Authors: Suh Kyung Hyun
Published: June 2022

Background: This study developed and validated a brief tool to efficiently measure hardiness in the Korean population, considering that no such valid tool is available in Korean.Methods: Data for item analysis and exploratory factor analysis were obtained from 343 college students and data for internal consistency and confirmatory factor analyses were obtained from 570 college students. Test-retest reliability, convergent validity, and criterion-related validity were determined.Results: Excellent model fits were shown for the 12-item brief measure of hardiness (BMH) with the following three factors: commitment (e.g., “When I open my eyes in the morning, I look forward to the day.”), self-directedness (e.g., “My decisions shape my life.”), tenacity (e.g., “I believe that failure is the mother of success.”). Each subscale consists of four items, using a six-point Likert scale. Cronbach’s α for commitment, self-directedness, tenacity, and the total BMH were .91, .85, .89, and .88, respectively. The BMH test−retest coefficient was .77, suggesting reliabilty of this tool. Analyses of the criterion− related validity revealed that the the BMH score was reasonably correlated with the scores on some sub-scales of the Personality Assessment Inventory.Conclusions: Although other standardized scales may be required for diagnostic purposes, this study highlights the utility of the BMH as a brief and useful tool with relatively simple items to measure hardiness as a personality trait in the Korean population for research purposes.
The Influence of Mothers’ Acculturative Stress on Adolescents' Depression in Multicultural Families: The Moderating Effect of Sex
Authors: Lee RaeHyuck
Published: June 2022

Background: With the increasing number of multicultural adolescents, concerns about their healthy development are also on the rise. This study aimed to examine the influence of mothers’ acculturative stress on adolescents’ depression in multicultural families with respect to the moderating effect of sex.Methods: A series of regression analyses were conducted using a sample of 1,052 adolescents from multicultural families composed of a foreign-born mother and a Korean father based on the 9th wave of the Multicultural Adolescents Panel Study (MAPS).Results: First, foreign-born mothers’ acculturative stress positively and significantly influenced adolescents’ depression. When the level of acculturative stress increased, so did the level of depression. Second, the influence of mothers’ acculturative stress on adolescents’ depression was moderated by sex. The influence was larger for female than for male adolescents.Conclusions: Based on its findings, this study discussed intervention strategies to address depression among multicultural adolescents.

Authors: Xavier Gisele Martins , Gallo Ana Raquel da Silva , Chagas Claudia Lopes Rodrigues , Oliveira Fabiana Gusmão Gonçalves , Lescura Letícia Maciel , Castro-Nunes Paula de , Silva Júnior Aluísio Gomes da
Published: June 2022

Objective: to discuss the implications of autonomy in the mandatory vaccine against COVID-19 from a decision of the Federal Supreme Court correlated with ethics based on principles. Methods: this is a document analysis research, guided by recent decisions of the Supreme Court (STF) and bibliographic, using scientific databases. Results: compulsory vaccination in Brazil has been applied in various periods of history and configures a measure that ensures fundamental rights, such as the right to health. Even because, in a pandemic scenario, the autonomy of the individual loses its protagonism in the face of collective needs, since the right to health is individual and collective. Concomitantly, the alleged restriction of individual freedom is supported by the foundation of the collective interest in health and human dignity. Conclusion: the immunization of the Brazilian population must be approached in a safe and effective way to control this health crisis.
Sem heróis, sem heroínas: reflexões sobre o discurso heroico utilizado pela mídia sobre os profissionais de enfermagem na pandemia de COVID-19
Authors: Miasato Felipe Akira
Published: June 2022

Objective: this article aims to discuss the use of heroic discourse, widely disseminated by the media during the COVID-19 pandemic, as a reference for nursing professionals working in the health crisis. Methods: we started with the qualitative thematic analysis of journalistic articles published in an online news portal with national coverage, between March and July 2020, and the use of the concept of intersectionality as an analytical category, with a decolonial perspective. Results: it appears that, articulated to the military language and the death policy of the current Brazilian government, these constructions collaborate for the weakening and invisibility of the professional category. Conclusion: there are serious problems associated with this narrative construction, since in addition to contributing to the devaluation and silencing of the profession and its professionals, it distorts critical discussions on structural issues faced by the latter. It is also argued the importance of politicization of nursing professionals, given their fragile political training, to build other narratives that consolidate nursing care as a political, democratic care that is aware of its insertion in the current context of increasing precariousness of work in the country.
Visibilizar indivíduos, ocultar instituições: uma análise documental de categorias governamentais para abordar o fenômeno do confinamento no Brasil
Authors: Silva Martinho Braga Batista e , Salgueiro Lermen Helena , Santos Adriana Kelly
Published: June 2022

Objective: to describe and analyze categories to refer to people and establishments adopted in the health and justice sectors of the Federal Executive Branch thus accentuating the political dimension of the phenomenon of confinement in Brazil. Methods: we developed an overview of the results, highlighting the number and frequency of these categories. Our document analysis focused on primers and other educational materials identified and characterized after consulting four websites. Results: we gathered 147 documents, most of them with the purpose of raising social engagement, and a few defining norms. In the justice sector we found 412 records of expressions to refer to populations, and 274 to refer to establishments, as well as 619 and 390 in the health sector so that the policy target audience is presented almost twice as often as the service offered in these educational materials. Conclusion: there are more categories to refer to the target populations of health and penitentiary policies than to the spaces in which it is recommended that they be allocated. In some technical areas, almost five times more, as if the process of formulating these forms of state action collaborated to make individuals visible while hiding institutions.
Framing Migration During the Covid-19 Pandemic in South Africa: A 12-Month Media Monitoring Project
Authors: De Gruchy Thea , Zikhali Thulisile , Vearey Jo , Hanefeld Johanna
Published: June 2022

Assumptions surrounding the origins of Covid-19, the relationship between human mobility and the spread of the virus, and the pressure that the pandemic has placed on communities, have exacerbated xenophobic tensions globally, including in South Africa, a country long-associated with xenophobia. Previous research exploring how the South African media frames migration, and research investigating the framing of migration during Covid-19 in other contexts, has found that the media tends to frame migrants in terms of (un)deservingness and blame them for the spread of disease. Our findings, however, identify different concerns. This article discusses findings from a 12-month study exploring how migrant and mobile populations in South Africa were framed in the media as the pandemic developed during 2020. A news aggregator—Meltwater—was used to scrape the internet for English language text-based media published globally in 2020 that met a search with key terms Migration, Covid-19, and South Africa. A total of 12,068 articles were identified and descriptively analysed. Informed by previous approaches, a framing analysis was then undertaken of a sample of 561 articles. Findings illustrate how articles published by outlets based in the US and UK have a far greater reach than locally or regionally produced articles, despite local and regional outlets publishing far more consistently on the topic. Consistent and sympathetic engagement with issues of migration by South African publications was seen across 2020 and suggests that those writing from the region are aware of the realities of migration and mobility. Findings show that rather than centring migrants as the locus of blame for failures of the South African state—as has been done in the past—the state and its failure to adequately respond to both Covid-19 and migration are now being clearly articulated by media.
