A DESCRIPTIVE STUDY ON CLINICOHISTOPATHOLOGICAL SPECTRUM OF CUTANEOUS MELANOCYTIC LESIONS AT SMS HOSPITAL, JAIPUR DURING 2022
Authors: Gupta Sweta , Gupta Karuna , Kumar Gupta Vipin , Bhansaly Prabhav
Published: July 2023

Background and Objectives- Melanocytes are derived from stem cell in the neural crest that normally migrate to the epidermis, where they are
scattered along the basal layer. Proliferation of melanocytes may result in melanocytic lesions ranging from benign freckles and nevi (mole) to
malignant melanoma. The diagnosis of melanocytic tumor is one of the most problematic areas in dermatology and diagnostic pathology. Early
recognition and correct diagnosis of melanoma is however, challenging due to the wide morphological spectrum. The purpose of this study is to
evaluate the clinicopathological spectrum of cutaneous melanocytic lesions. Methods- 63 biopsy specimens of clinically diagnosed cutaneous
melanocytic lesios were reviewed histologically in the Department of Pathology at SMS Medical College, Jaipur (Rajasthan) . In this Resultsstudy benign lesions 42( 66.3 %) were more than malignant lesions 21 (33.7%). Among benign lesions most common was intradermal nevus 26
(41.3%) with female preponderance. In malignant lesions most common was conventional melanoma 13 cases with male preponderance .Most
common site for benign were forearm ,trunk , face and for malignant was foot. In wide local excised specimens most common Clark's level of
invasion was III. In this study 85.7 % clinically diagnosed cases well correlat Conclusion and Interpretation- ed with histopathological diagnosis
while 14.3% histopathological diagnosis had varied clinical presentation. The spectrum of various cutaneous melanocytic lesions in relation with
different parameters is well documented. This study will facilitate pathological reporting and aid clinicians to make focused investigation and plan
appropriate treatment.

Simulation of high-temperature zirconium alloy oxidation in a nitrogen, oxygen and steam mixture
Authors: Dolgodvorov Aleksey P.
Published: July 2023

The paper presents a correlation model of high-temperature zirconium alloy oxidation in a mixture of gases (steam, nitrogen and oxygen) for the weight gain calculation of the oxidized sample. The essence of the model consists in using the linear interpolation between the kinetic constants of oxidation in pure gases to describe the oxidation kinetics in gas mixtures. The approach allows one to describe the oxygen weight gain with different contents of gases in steam, nitrogen and oxygen mixtures. The model was validated against experimental data on oxidation in an air-steam mixture in a proportion of 50% to 50% of the volume. For temperatures of 1200 °C and 1400 °C, prior to the 625th second, the deviation between the experimental data and the simulation results is not more than 18%; for 800 °C, prior to the 14th hour, the deviation between the experimental data and the simulation results is not more than 40%. Besides the air-steam mixture, the paper presents the results of the weight gain calculation using the proposed model for oxidation in an oxygen-nitrogen mixture and in a steam-oxygen mixture at 800 °C and 1400 °C.
Fetishism and Objectification
Authors: Hoskin Maia Niguel
Published: July 2023

There has been extensive discussion about the lived experiences of Black men; however, there has not been as much discussion about the lived experiences of Black American women. Because Black women and girls live at the intersection of two marginalized groups, they are more likely to go unseen than any other racial or gender group. This has made them more venerable to racist stereotypes perpetuated in film, television, and popular culture since the 1800s. The pervasive nature of social media and mediated stereotyped images of Black women only add to the continued dehumanization and invisibility of Black women and the disparities they face. This chapter will examine how mediated images and tropes of Black women on social media perpetuate the dehumanization of Black women and re-enforce the disparities that they experience through the lens of critical race theory.

Skin disorders are one of the most common types of disorders that are primarily diagnosed visually with scientific screening observed through dermoscopic evaluation, histopathological evaluation, and a biopsy. Diagnostic accuracy has a strong relevance to physician skill. Painful effects of skin disease hamper the mental condition of a patient. The authors propose an approach to detect the skin diseases based upon image processing as well as machine learning techniques i.e., convolutional neural networks (CNN). CNN is a specific type of neural network model that allows us to extract higher depictions for the image content. It is a deep learning algorithm to perform generative and descriptive tasks. Machine learning generates two types of prediction-batches and real time.

Authors: ADEWUMI Ademola Adeniran , ADEDOKUN Rotimi Adetayo
Published: July 2023

This study empirically examined the nexus between intellectual capital and the share price volatility of quoted financial companies in Nigeria from year 2011 to 2021. The sample comprised of thirteen money deposit banks that are listed on the Nigeria stock exchange market over the period between 2011 and 2021. Data from 13 listed banks from 2011-2021 were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. The results showed that advertisement cost had a significant positive effect on share price volatility as a result of p-value of the t-statistics calculated for AD is less than the critical value of 5% (p-values < 0.05), while research and development expenditure did not as a result of p-value of the t-statistics calculated for RD is greater than the critical value of 5% (p-values > 0.05). The p-value of the t-statistics calculated for STVA is greater than the critical value of 5% (p-values > 0.05), Structural Capital Value Added was not significant, while Value Added Capital Employed and Value Added Human Capital positively influenced share price volatility as a result p-value of their t-statistics calculated being less than the critical value of 5% (p-values < 0.05). Control variables of Leverage, Liquidity, and Net Assets were also significant volatility as a result p-value of their t-statistics calculated being less than the critical value of 5% (p-values < 0.05). The P-value of the F-statistics computed for the variables for testing the overall fixed effect of the regression model of 0.000000 was less than the critical value of 5% (p-values < 0.05). The overall result of the finding had revealed that there was a significant relationship between intellectual capital and the share price volatility of quoted financial companies in Nigeria. Therefore, the study recommended that the Nigerian listed deposit money banks should invest more in research and development to improve their competitiveness and increase their share price. Also, human capital and capital employed should be effectively utilized.

Published: July 2023

O envelhecimento populacional, realidade no Brasil, é um processo fisiológico acompanhado por diversos fatores que podem aumentar a vulnerabilidade dessa população. O objetivo do presente estudo foi caracterizar uma amostra de idosos usuários da Atenção Primária à Saúde quanto aos fatores sociodemográficos, aspectos de saúde e hábitos de vida, associados à prevalência de vulnerabilidade social, de acordo com variáveis preditoras. Os dados foram coletados por meio de aplicação de questionário e posteriormente digitados, validados e analisados por meio de estatística descritiva. Foram entrevistados 403 idosos, com maioria composta pelo sexo feminino, idade entre 60-69 anos, da cor branca, que possuem companheiro, cursaram o ensino fundamental, que praticam atividade física, não fumam ou bebem, não exercem atividade remunerada, com renda per capita mensal menor ou igual a 1 salário mínimo, que residem com 2 pessoas e que possuem 3 ou mais doenças crônicas não transmissíveis. A prevalência de vulnerabilidade social, dada pela ausência de cônjuge, baixa escolaridade e baixa renda, foi de 51% e variou em função do sexo (56,7% em mulheres; p=0,01), mas não variou em função da idade (p=0,30) e da cor da pele (p=0,07). A maior vulnerabilidade social em idosas é decorrente da maior longevidade, associada muitas vezes à ausência de companheiro, bem como pelas históricas desvantagens educacionais, que culminam em baixa escolaridade, e dificuldades financeiras, como menor renda, em comparação aos homens.
Machine Learning to improve and understand sub-seasonal forecasts of European temperature
Authors:   , van Straaten Joachim Wilhelmus
Published: July 2023

Europe faces droughts, heatwaves, and other extreme weather events every year. To prevent the worst of the impacts good probabilistic forecasts are needed, ideally issued several weeks in advance. This thesis explores whether physics-based, statistical and hybrid models can be used. Generally, sub-seasonal forecasts are difficult to make due to the chaotic evolution of the atmosphere. This thesis however shows that the division of warm and cold air over Europe can be predictable, as long as predictions are made for extended periods of time and large areas. The sources responsible for such predictability often lie in complex interactions between ocean, land and atmosphere. When disentangling these interactions with explainable Machine Learning, we learn that processes in the Pacific can be important for European summer weather. Subsequently, we evaluate ECMWF ensemble forecasts and show that large correctable errors relate to an erroneous simulation of this Pacific-to-Europe teleconnection. A correction of the physics-based forecasts with statistical post-processing increases sub-seasonal forecast skill for Europe in summer.
Traces of Violent Video Gameplay in Adolescent Development
Authors:   , Międzobrodzka Ewa Joanna
Published: July 2023

The possible effects of violent video gameplay on adolescents are intensely debated, highlighting the difficulties in the violent media research. The current dissertation posits that media may sort effects in more subtle and less direct ways than thus far studied. It employed a novel perspective to investigate the possible effects of violent video games on adolescents’ social outcomes, by looking beyond aggression and by focusing on four social-cognitive skills: emotion recognition, inhibitory control, perspective-taking, and empathy for pain. The development of these skills is particularly salient during early adolescence. If such development would be disturbed by exposure to violent video games, it may underlie antisocial behavior.

Integration of insights from media psychology, developmental psychology, and neuroscience led to an expectation that exposure to violent video games would be negatively related to and would have a negative impact on the four social-cognitive skills. To investigate how exposure to violent video games may influence these social-cognitive skills, we took a multi-level approach, by investigating possible effects on a self-report level (questionnaires), a behavioral level (reaction times), and a brain level (ERP responses). To test our hypotheses, we performed four studies employing various study designs: correlational, experimental, and quasi-experimental in different adolescent samples and in one young adult sample.

The outcomes of this project indicated that the possible impact of violent video game exposure on adolescents’ social-cognitive skills is limited and may be observed only in terms of short-term effects: less accurate perspective-taking and lower empathy for pain reactions measured immediately after the game. Further, habitual exposure to violent video games was related to lower empathy for pain reactions, but only in young adults, not in adolescents. Contrary to our expectations, more frequent habitual exposure to violent video games was related to better inhibitory control over emotional expressions in adolescents. Moreover, we also tested the possible effects of exposure to antisocial content in other media, beyond video games, and found that it was related to less accurate emotion recognition and lower empathy for pain reactions in adolescents.

While this project brings new insights which could enrich scientific and public debates on violent media effects on youth, future longitudinal studies are needed to better understand possible ‘traces’ of violent video games in adolescent development, considering individual developmental trajectories and differences between young people.

Karneval und Identität in der deutschsprachigen Literatur
Authors: Junglas Nicolas
Published: July 2023

The question of the role of carnival in German-language literature has not been discussed in detail until now. Against the background that carnival customs are a cultural phenomenon of a universal nature, however, an investigation of this subject was long overdue. The work spans a time span of 500 years and takes a close look at the - largely - canonised literature. The role of the jester and the function of masquerading are given special consideration, as both reflect the identity-forming quality inherent in carnival. In the medium of carnival - according to a core thesis of the work - the ego crises of literary characters are negotiated, including potential solutions.

Thoracic aortic atherosclerosis in patients with a bicuspid aortic valve; a case–control study
Authors: Dolmaci Onur B. , Klautz Robert J. M. , Poelmann Robert E. , Lindeman Jan H. N. , Sprengers Ralf , Kroft Lucia , Grewal Nimrat
Published: July 2023

Introduction

Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) patients have an increased risk to develop thoracic aortic complications. Little is known about the prevalence and severity of atherosclerosis in the BAV ascending aortic wall. This study evaluates and compares the prevalence of thoracic aortic atherosclerosis in BAV and tricuspid aortic valve (TAV) patients.

Methods

Atherosclerosis was objectified using three diagnostic modalities in two separate BAV patient cohorts (with and without an aortic dilatation). Within the first group, atherosclerosis was graded histopathologically according to the modified AHA classification scheme proposed by Virmani et al. In the second group, the calcific load of the ascending aorta and coronary arteries, coronary angiographies and cardiovascular risk factors were studied. Patients were selected from a surgical database (treated between 2006–2020), resulting in a total of 128 inclusions.

Results

Histopathology showed atherosclerotic lesions to be more prevalent and severe in all TAV as compared to all BAV patients (OR 1.49 (95%CI 1.14 – 1.94); p = 0.003). Computed tomography showed no significant differences in ascending aortic wall calcification between all BAV and all TAV patients, although a tendency of lower calcific load in favor of BAV was seen. Coronary calcification was higher in all TAV as compared to all BAV (OR 1.30 (95%CI 1.06 – 1.61); p = 0.014).

Conclusion

Ascending aortic atherosclerotic plaques were histologically more pronounced in TAV as compared to the BAV patients, while CT scans revealed equal amounts of calcific depositions within the ascending aortic wall. This study confirms less atherosclerosis in the ascending aortic wall and coronary arteries of BAV patients as compared to TAV patients. These results were not affected by the presence of a thoracic aortic aneurysm.

La convergencia entre regiones es importante, para que, con el tiempo, lasregiones más ricas y las más pobres logren un nivel de desarrollo similar. Eneste sentido, la siguiente investigación, por un lado, determina la existenciade convergencia global o clubes de convergencia entre las regiones en Perú y,por otro, explica los factores que inciden en dicha convergencia. Para determinar los clubes de convergencia, se siguió la metodología de factor de cargade Phillips y Sul (2007) y datos de panel en los periodos 2004-2008. Los resultados revelan la existencia de tres clubes de convergencia según el productointerno bruto (PIB) per cápita y la productividad laboral. Se concluye que laconformación de los clubes según el PIB per cápita y la productividad laboral dependen directamente del capital humano, la transferencia de canon y laubicación geográfica. Estos hallazgos, sugieren que el Estado debe priorizar alas regiones de clubes más pobres.
What is an “ArchintorTM?” A paradigm shift in teaching, facilitation, and learning: The impact of different types of coursework expectations on classroom network structures
Authors: Love Hannah B. , Dickmann Ellyn M. , Fisher Ellen R.
Published: July 2023

Hypothetically, a student could attend a class, listen to lectures, and pass the class without knowing or interacting with other students. What happens to the network when the classroom expectations change? For example, there is a coursework expectation that students exchange contact information, or the instructor uses collaborative learning practices. Or what if the principal investigator (PI) of a scientific team goes on a sabbatical? This study uses the framework of classrooms because of their relatability across science. We asked how do different instructor coursework expectations change network structures within a classroom or other learning environments? A social network survey was administered at the start and end of the semester (pre- and post-test) in six university sociology classrooms to explore how expectations impacted the communication and learning networks. We found practical changes in course expectations impact the communication and learning networks, suggesting that instructors, facilitators, and others could be the archintorTM (architect+instructor+facilitator) of the network. Understanding that expectations can impact a network’s structure marks a paradigm shift in educational assessment approaches. If the archintorTM has identified the “optimal” network structure, then their task is to design expectations that result in specific interactions that ultimately improve student achievement and success. This work provides recommendations for classroom archintorsTM to create the most impactful classroom networks. Future research should extend beyond education and classroom networks and identify the best or desired networks in other areas like public policy, urban planning, and more. If these “optimal” networks were identified, an archintorTM could design a social network to solve wicked problems, manage a crisis, and create social change.

Peculiarities of numerical simulation of air/heat curtain operation in OpenFOAM
Authors: Grigorev Sergey , Koroleva Maria Ravilevna , Mishchenkova Olga Vladimirovna
Published: July 2023

The issues of mathematical modeling of turbulent heat-conductive flow of compressible viscous medium in the internal volume of the body of an air-thermal curtain equipped with a tangential fan are considered. The solution of the problem is constructed on the basis of averaged Reynolds (Favre) Navier-Stokes equations. The solution of the problem is obtained using the MRF (Multiple Reference Frame) approach, which uses a rotating reference frame, and using a transformation of the basic Navier-Stokes equations in the rotation zone. In order to correctly describe the working processes occurring in the internal volume of the air-thermal curtain and in the environment, modular multiblock meshes are applied in the work, including those allowing to separate rotating and stationary areas. The solution of the set tasks is constructed using the tools of the OpenFOAM package. As a result of the work, the peculiarities of the flow structure in the flowing part of the air-heat curtain are described in detail, and the gas velocities achieved at different fan speeds are estimated. The self-similarity of velocity profiles at the air curtain nozzle outlet is shown.

Discorre-se como foi naturalizada e hibridizada a manifestação carnavalesca em nosso país e como se processou a adequação dessa festa, verificando-se que “em 1890, a república estava recém-proclamada, o que acabou possibilitando a formação das oligarquias regionais que dominavam o poder político por longo tempo”, fato que também foi assimilado pela cultura carnavalesca.

Natural products account for 60% of the total market, making them a major
source of drug discovery. Some of these are sourced from the cultivation of
microorganisms. Microbial transformation is an example of the application of the
cultivation of microorganisms. It is a method of modifying the chemical structure of
compounds such as steroids by microorganisms. The diversity of the possible reaction
types in microbial transformation includes the process of oxidation, hydroxylation,
esterification, isomerization, reduction, acetylation, hydrogenation and glycosylation.
Therefore, screening of new microbial strains for specific bioconversions is essential
for bioprospecting. This chapter reviews a range of previous studies that have used
fungi for biotransformation.

A significant research effort has been pushed to develop
semi-transparent solar cells in last one decade. Organic solar cells
(OSCs)’s band gap tunability in near-infrared, and thin film depositions
characteristic appeal them attractive as a semi-transparent solar cell.
It’s application in wearable energy generation, building-integrated
solar cells, agrivoltaics, and the automotive industries, etc. become
focus of interest. In OSCs device structure, apart from photoactive
layer the top electrode materials play an essential role to maintain the
device transparency and the performance. Thus, the choice of the top
electrode material is crucial. A few materials such as thin metal film
and nanowires, Metal/dielectric/Metal structures, PEDOT: PSS, graphene,
and CNT have been reported so far. To date, the highest power conversion
efficiency (PCE) reported for OSCs up to 16% with 25.2 % average
visible transmittance (AVT %) by using a metal: polymer film as the
transparent top electrode (TTE). However, there is an enhancement needed
to maintain high transparency with improved device performance. In this
review, we discussed atop electrode properties required for transparent
or semi-transparent organic solar cells (ST-OSCs). We have also
discussed the materials stability, scalability, current challenges, and
future perspectives of top electrode materials for ST-OSCs. Also,
summarized the top electrode materials reported so far.
Próba ukazania wpływu integracji europejskiej na restrukturyzację polskiej floty rybackiej
Authors: Nowaczyk Piotr
Published: July 2023

Integracja z Unią Europejską, umożliwiła restrukturyzację polskiego sektora rybackiego na niespotykaną do tej pory skalę. Dzięki środkom unijnym przeprowadzono redukcję floty rybackiej oraz dokonano jej częściowej modernizacji. Natomiast nie wprowadzono do eksploatacji żadnego nowego statku rybackiego, a restrukturyzacja floty rybackiej dokonała się prawie wyłącznie dzięki środkom unijnym. Zmiany w polskiej flocie rybackiej zwiększyły rentowność połowów oraz poprawiły konkurencyjność sektora. Nastąpiło to w wyniku zwiększenia indywidualnych kwot połowowych oraz unowocześnienia jednostek rybackich. Proces restrukturyzacji polskiej floty rybackiej nie został zakończony. Konieczne jest jej unowocześnienie. Przyszły Fundusz Morsko-Rybacki na lata 2014-2020, stwarza warunki do kontynuowania rozpoczętych zmian. Ma to nastąpić w wyniku ograniczenia hojnego subsydiowania rybołówstwa na rzecz większego wpływu rynku.

Much research has been carried out on local wisdom at the junior high school level nationally, but research that has been published internationally and is Scopus indexed specifically discusses local wisdom at the junior high school level is still very minimal. The purpose of writing this research is as material to find out trends in local wisdom research in junior high school science learning. This study uses a bibliometric analysis method that uses sources from Scopus with publication limits from 2019 to 2023 on the Scopus database, and utilizes the VOSviewer application as a visualization tool. Data analysis through the Scopus database in this research was based on search results with local wisdom keywords written in the title words column and science learning as keywords. Found 45 publications in Scopus during 2019-2023 that discuss local wisdom in junior high schools. Published articles about local wisdom in junior high school science learning during 2019-2023 will be more researched in 2020 based on the results of data analysis through the Scopus database. The results of the bibliometric analysis research show that the trend of research on local wisdom at the junior high school level in the five year period (2019-2023) has focused more on the position of students as learning subjects and the development of research on local wisdom in junior high schools that specifically discusses the implications for strengthening the attitude of love for local culture for students have not been studied much
АNALYSIS OF THE ECONOMIC SECURITY OF CENTRAL FEDERAL DISTRICT
Authors: Urazova Ekaterina
Published: July 2023

Introduction. The increased interest of the modern scientifi c world in the issues of ensuring national and economic se-curity is associated with the aspect that the successful development and the very existence of a sovereign state is impossible without their provision. Currently, there is a lack in a unifi ed methodology for determining the level of economic security due to the fragmentation of the system of indicators. Moreover, such uncertainty is present at the regional level, therefore, it isimpossible to accurately determine it on a national scale, because the economic security of the state is based on the economic security of its regions. Methodology. The Central Federal District (CFD) of Russia was chosen as the object of the study. Materials for the study were taken from offi cial sources of the territorial body of the Federal State Statistics Service for the Moscow Region, the territorial body of the Federal State Statistics Service for the Vladimir Region, and the static collection of Kostromastat. Results. The results present an assessment of regions from different groups according to the development level of the district. It is based on groups of indicators from the fi nancial, socio-economic and manufacturing sectors. An analysis of the state of ecology in CFD regions was carried out in the context of individual indices and their ranking accord-ing to the achieved values was presented. The rating and the environmental-economic index showed leaders and outsiders among regions. Conclusions. On the basis of the conducted studies, the development level of individual regions was re-vealed, which differs signifi cantly. The lagging regions are Tver, Smolensk, Ivanovo and Kostroma regions. In ecological terms, the most deplorable situation is observed in the Moscow and Tula regions, and the best situation is in the Belgorod and Kursk regions. The main problems of the regions are demography and a high degree of depreciation of fi xed assets. In Moscow, the unemployment rate exceeds the national average by 3 times. The research can provide an objective assessment of the current state of economic security of CFD regions according to different areas of development of the district, and can serve as the basis for further practical research – the construction of predictive values of the studied indicators.
Location of Emergency Treatment Sites after Earthquake using Hybrid Simulation

Published: July 2023

A mass-casualty natural disaster such as an earthquake is a rare, surprising event that is usually characterized by chaos and a lack of information, resulting in an overload of casualties in hospitals. Thus, it is very important to refer minor and moderately-injured casualties, that are the majority of casualties and whose injuries are usually not life threatening, to ad hoc care facilities such as Emergency Treatment Sites (ETSs). These facilities support the efficient use of health resources and reduce the burden on permanent healthcare facilities. In our study, a hybrid simulation model, based on a combination of discrete events and an agent-based simulation, provides a solution to the uncertainty of positioning temporary treatment sites. The simulation methodology used compares between "rigid" and "flexible" operating concepts of ETSs (main vs. main+minor ETSs) and found the "flexible" concept to be more efficient in terms of the average walking distance and number of casualties treated in the disaster area.
Populações tradicionais: uma análise dos aspectos socioculturais da comunidade ribeirinha Nova Teotônio
Authors: Andrade Adnéia Miranda Gomes
Published: July 2023

O presente artigo traz algumas reflexões sobre os aspectos socioculturais da Nova Vila de Teotônio, localizada a 40 km de distância da cidade de Porto Velho-RO. Os moradores dessa comunidade ribeirinha passaram por um intenso processo de mudança, isso porque a antiga Vila em que viviam foi inundada pelos reservatórios de água da Usina hidrelétrica de Santo Antônio, de modo que os habitantes que ali residiam a décadas, foram forçados a saírem de suas terras, a deixarem suas casas e a abandonarem ali os elementos culturais, sociais e individuais que constituem suas identidades, havendo o apagamento parcial da história desse local e de seus moradores. Para conhecer melhor as interferências dessa mudança de localidade nessa comunidade ribeirinha, formulou-se os seguintes questionamentos: Quais foram os impactos socioculturais provocados pelo deslocamento espacial da Vila de Teotônio; E como esse deslocamento prejudica a manutenção da identidade cultural dos moradores dessa comunidade. Partindo desses questionamentos, essa pesquisa tem o objetivo de analisar os aspectos socioculturais da Nova Vila de Teotônio, e as possíveis modificações sociais e culturais ocorridas no reassentamento. Para atingir esse objetivo e responder os problemas de pesquisa, foram adotados diferentes procedimentos de caráter descritivo e analítico, que permitiram tratar os dados necessários à investigação. Serviram como instrumento na coleta de dados, um questionário com perguntas abertas e fechadas e a observação in loco. Deste modo este trabalho é uma pesquisa de campo, pautada em estudos bibliográficos de autores como: Loureiro (2001); Medeiros (2004); Fraxe (2004) e Chinoy (2008). Os resultados da pesquisa apontaram que houve mudanças significativas na vida dos habitantes da nova Vila de Teotônio, principalmente em sua cultura. Observou-se que no reassentamento eles sobrevivem com dificuldades, sem trabalho, pois com a construção da Usina hidrelétrica de Santo Antônio, o peixe, seu meio de subsistência, ficou escasso, dificultando assim a sobrevivência e a preservação das raízes culturais e sociais dessa comunidade ribeirinha.
