Real-Time Disease Prediction Using Big Data and Human-Computer Interaction
Authors: Anita
Published: December 2024

Big data streaming involves managing the vast volumes of data generated continuously by wearable medical devices with sensors, healthcare cloud platforms, and mobile applications. Traditional methods for processing this data are often time- and resource-intensive. To address this challenge, there is a need for efficient and scalable real-time big data stream processing. This study introduces a novel architecture for a big data-driven real-time health status prediction and analytics system. In this architecture, we replace Hadoop MapReduce with Spark to enable a parallel, distributed, and scalable decision tree algorithm capable of handling real-time computations. This model is then applied to streaming data from various sources, supporting the prediction of health statuses across multiple diseases. Using distributed streaming data, the system predicts health conditions associated with different disorders. To evaluate the performance, we compare Spark's decision tree (Spark DT) with traditional machine learning tools such as Weka. Key performance metrics, including execution time and throughput, are analyzed to assess the effectiveness of the proposed architecture. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed system can effectively manage and predict vast amounts of real-time IoT-enabled medical data related to various disorders, showcasing its potential for real-time healthcare applications.
Examining the Intersectionality of Gender and Caste in Dalit Women’s Narratives
Authors: Singh Ravindra Kumar
Published: December 2024

This review paper explores the intersectionality of gender and caste within Dalit women’s narratives, focusing on how these dual axes of oppression shape their lived experiences and representation in literature and oral histories. Drawing from seminal works by Dalit women writers such as Bama Faustina Soosairaj, Urmila Pawar, and Sivakami, the paper examines themes of systemic marginalization, resistance, and resilience. It critically analyzes how these narratives uniquely address patriarchy within caste systems and caste-based hierarchies within patriarchal structures, presenting a nuanced portrayal of Dalit women’s struggles and agency.
By contextualizing these narratives within broader sociopolitical and historical frameworks, the paper highlights the contributions of Dalit women’s voices to feminist and anti-caste discourses in India. The review also identifies gaps in existing literature, such as the underrepresentation of intersectional perspectives in mainstream feminist and Dalit studies, advocating for a more inclusive approach to understanding the complexities of Dalit women’s identities. Ultimately, the paper underscores the transformative power of Dalit women’s narratives in challenging oppressive systems and reshaping academic and activist dialogues on caste and gender.

Authors: Ambarwati Sarah Mei , Jupri Al
Published: December 2024

Numeracy skills in the 21st century are a foundation that elementary school students must have. This ability is, of course, related to the ability to be able to find and process information in various forms of symbols and numbers, as well as the ability to analyse the forms of information contained in tables, graphs, infographics, and charts. The use of open-ended questions is given to students to train their thinking to be more rational, systematic, and critical in solving various mathematical problems in everyday life. This research aims to describe the effect of implementing open-ended questions on improving elementary school students' numeracy skills. This ability will be measured by giving open-ended questions to 28 fifth grade students as research subjects. The research method was carried out using a mixed method. Data collection was obtained through testing and observation techniques. Student numeracy ability data was analysed using the interactive model from Miles Huberman. Based on research results, students' numeracy abilities can be improved by providing open-ended questions, as evidenced by the percentage of test results, which increased by 32% in the proficient and proficient categories. Apart from that, the increase in numeracy skills can be seen in significant changes in student behaviour to become more critical and provide solutions to problems found in the context of everyday life. Thus, it can be concluded that giving open-ended questions can improve elementary school students' numeracy skills.

Authors: Annisa Fitri
Published: December 2024

Integers are often considered complex material that students struggle to grasp. Operations involving the addition and subtraction of whole numbers pose significant challenges for elementary students, who may encounter difficulties such as understanding the concept of negative numbers, subtracting larger numbers from smaller ones, and performing addition involving both negative and positive numbers. These challenges highlight the need for teachers to devise effective strategies and models that support students in learning integers. Providing engaging and interactive learning experiences could be an optimal approach to help students reason about integers. Consequently, the use of media or tools may be necessary to make the concept of integers more concrete and less abstract. This research aims to develop a valid, practical, and effective manipulative using the Thiagarajan 4D model, which consists of defining, designing, developing, and disseminating phases. The study involved eleven sixth-grade elementary school students as participants. A pretest and posttest on integer addition and subtraction were administered to evaluate the differences in students' abilities before and after using the product. The results suggest that students found it easier to conceptualize integers as assets and debts with the aid of the manipulatives. The final product, a manipulative tool, is named the 'Integer Operations Board.

Authors:   Phd Student Of Department Of World History In National University Of Uzbekistan, O‘G‘Li Tilavoldiyev Asrorjon Ulug‘Bek
Published: December 2024

The Koryo-Saram, or ethnic Koreans of Central Asia, represent a unique and historically significant diaspora. Their migration began in the late 19th century as Koreans left the Korean Peninsula due to political unrest, poverty, and Japanese colonial rule. Over time, they settled in regions that are now Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and other parts of the former Soviet Union. Their story reflects the broader dynamics of migration, cultural adaptation, and identity preservation.

Throughout their history, the Koryo-Saram have faced significant challenges, including forced deportations under Stalin’s regime in 1937. Despite linguistic erosion and pressures to assimilate into local cultures, they have managed to preserve elements of their Korean heritage, such as language, cuisine, and traditional festivals. At the same time, they have made substantial contributions to Central Asian societies, enriching these regions with their diverse cultural practices and expertise across various fields.

The Koryo-Saram diaspora exemplifies resilience and adaptation, highlighting the complexities of maintaining cultural identity in the face of adversity. Their experience offers valuable insights into migration, identity negotiation, and the dynamics of integration under authoritarian regimes. As both preservers of Korean traditions and contributors to Central Asian cultures, the Koryo-Saram demonstrate the intricate balance between cultural preservation and assimilation, making their story an important subject within the broader study of diasporic communities. ‎

Authors: Altıntaş Yusuf Ziya
Published: December 2024

Çanakkale Savaşı, Birinci Dünya Savaşı’nın ilk aylarında Osmanlı Devleti’nin fiilen bu savaşa dâhil olmasından kısa süre sonra başlayan ve esas merkezi Avrupa olan büyük savaşın kaderini etkileyen cephelerinden birisidir. Savaşa katılan pek çok devletin bu cephede doğrudan veya dolaylı biçimde yer alması yerli kaynakların yanı sıra yabancı dillerde de Çanakkale Savaşı’na dair büyük bir literatür birikiminin oluşmasını beraberinde getirmiştir. Pek az istisnası olmakla birlikte Osmanlı/Türkiye tarih yazımında Çanakkale Cephesi, “yedi düvele karşı kazanılan” ve “Millî Mücadelenin ruhunu oluşturan” büyük bir zafer olarak öne çıkmaktadır. Çanakkale Zaferi bu yüzden Türk tarihçilerinin en fazla ilgi gösterdikleri konulardan biridir. Bu yoğun ilgiye rağmen Birinci Dünya Savaşında müttefiklik ilişkisi içerisinde bulunulan Almanya’nın Çanakkale’deki yerini ve katkısını, bu alana dair kaynak zenginliğini de içeren çalışmaların azlığı dikkati çekmektedir. Bu makalede Çanakkale Savaşı’ndaki Alman varlığı ve etkinliğine dair kaynaklar müttefiklik ilişkisi ve tarih yazımı çerçevesinde ele alınacaktır.

A infecção por COVID-19 em gestantes tornou-se um problema de saúde pública, uma vez que contribuiu ao aumento da mortalidade materna no mundo e em áreas da Amazônia. Através da geotecnologia foi analisada a distribuição dos óbitos maternos por COVID-19 no Estado do Pará, através de um estudo descritivo do tipo ecológico, retrospectivo com uso de dados secundários oficiais dos óbitos maternos por COVID-19 notificados entre 2020 e 2021 obtidos do banco de dados da Secretaria de Saúde do Estado. Ocorreram óbitos maternos na maioria dos 144 municípios que compõem a área sob estudo. Em cinco destes (Jacareacanga, Vitória do Xingu, Santa Maria das Barreiras, São Sebastião da Boa Vista e Oriximiná) estavam as maiores taxas médias anuais de óbitos maternos. Em outros das mesorregiões Nordeste, Sudeste, Sudoeste do Pará e Baixo Amazonas houve indicação da autocorrelação espacial entre as taxas de óbitos maternos, bem como identificou-se altas taxas de mortalidade auto correlacionadas espacialmente com baixas coberturas de atenção básica. Verificou-se que a maioria dos municípios analisados que apresentaram taxas elevadas de óbitos maternos por COVID-19 possuem características socioeconômicas semelhantes como baixo Índice de Desenvolvimento Humano e dificuldades no acesso à serviços de saúde o que pode contribuir para desfechos desfavoráveis quanto a saúde materna, como o incremento das taxas de óbitos maternos na região. Desse modo, é necessário maior investimento em políticas públicas que atendam as necessidades das gestantes/puérperas, especialmente em períodos de pandemia no Estado do Pará.

Published: December 2024

This review addresses the application of silicon-germanium (SiGe) semiconductors as electronic components, highlighting their enhanced electronic and physical properties compared to pure silicon semiconductors. SiGe Semiconductors are widely used in high-performance devices, such as heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs) and radio-frequency integrated circuits (RFICs), due to their ability to improve speed, efficiency, and overall device performance. Incoporating Ge into Si increases electron mobility, enabling devices to operate at higher speeds and with lower power consumption, which is crucial for portable and low-power applications. Additionally, SiGe semiconductors are compatible with existing Si semiconductor manufacturing processes, facilitating their integration into complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technologies. Another significant benefit is their improved high-frequency performance, making them suitable for applications such as wireless communications and radar technologies. By varying the Ge composition in SiGe, it is possible to adjust the bandgap and lattice strain, providing flexibility in the design of electronic and optoelectronic devices. These attributes make SiGe semiconductors an ideal choice for a wide range of advanced applications where performance and energy efficiency are essential.

Published: December 2024

Many studies in the literature suggest that earthworms play an important role in the use and management of soils and are considered good bioindicators of environmental contamination by presenting changes in their behavior and even death when inserted in contaminated environments. In the current study we investigated the in vitro behavior of Amynthas gracilis hemoglobin (HbAg) against copper (Cu) and cadmium (Cd) in concentrations ranging from 0 to 100 µmol L-1, at pH values 5.0 and 7.0 by optical absorption, fluorescence emission, light scattering and circular dichroism techniques. Our results sugest that the HbAg undergoes oxidation in its heme group at both pH values. As from 30 µmol L-1 of copper in pH 7.0 HbAg is oxidized, dissociates and loses part of its secondary structure. In pH 5.0, it undergoes greater oxidation, also near 30 µmol L-1 but without secondary structures loss or dissociation. Regarding the metal cadmium, no significant changes were observed. The results indicate that HbAg has a potential for studies on copper biosensing.

Authors: Silva Neuder Wesley França da , Gutjahr Ana Lúcia Nunes , Braga Carlos Elias de Souza
Published: December 2024

A raiva é uma zoonose que causa encefalite aguda, transmitida ao humano pela saliva infectada de animais. Historicamente os cães foram os principais transmissores nas Américas, contudo o morcego Desmodus rotundus (Geoffroy, 1810) passou a ser uma preocupação, especialmente no Brasil. Assim, realizou-se um estudo das agressões/acidentes por morcegos na população da Área de Proteção Ambiental da Ilha do Combu, Belém, Pará. O objetivo foi identificar o perfil de atendimentos antirrábicos humanos – AAH de agressões/acidentes por morcegos entre 2007 e 2022. Trata-se de estudo descritivo quantitativo e retrospectivo do banco de dados notificados no Sistema Nacional de Agravo de Notificação (SINAN), analisando variáveis sociodemográficas e clínico-epidemiológicas. Observou-se 82 AAH, dos quais os morcegos foram responsáveis por 39 (47,56%) notificações, superadas apenas por cães 40 (48,78%). Identificou-se ausência de notificações em vários anos, indicando subnotificação. As agressões prevaleceram no primeiro semestre (61,54%), principalmente em fevereiro (20,51%). Ambos os sexos foram igualmente expostos e as crianças de 1 a 11 anos (46,15%) sendo as mais afetadas, todas por mordeduras e, houve alta taxa de abandono do esquema profilático antirrábico (74,36%), agravada pela falta de busca ativa pelos serviços de saúde (69,23%). A conclusão destaca a necessidade crítica de políticas públicas voltadas para prevenção e controle de agressões por morcegos em comunidades ribeirinhas, propondo-se um plano de ação que inclua educação comunitária sobre os riscos e a importância do atendimento médico imediato. Este estudo oferece uma análise inovadora e detalhada, indicando dados valiosos para a saúde pública e servindo como modelo para outras regiões amazônicas.

Published: December 2024

Este relato descreve o caso de um homem de 28 anos, HIV positivo desde 2022, em terapia antirretroviral com Tenofovir, Lamivudina e Dolutegravir. O paciente apresentava febre persistente, anorexia, icterícia progressiva, fadiga acentuada e lesões ulceradas perianais. Ao exame físico, constatou-se hepatoesplenomegalia, linfonodomegalias cervicais, axilares e inguinais, além de ascite leve e edema periférico. Os exames de imagem revelaram linfonodomegalias retroperitoneais e inguinais, hepatoesplenomegalia e líquido livre na pelve. A biópsia linfonodal confirmou hiperplasia linfóide com padrão hialino-vascular, característico de DCM. O PCR para EBV foi positivo, reforçando o papel do vírus na patogênese da condição. O manejo incluiu rituximabe, um anticorpo monoclonal anti-CD20, administrado semanalmente por quatro semanas, visando controlar a proliferação linfocitária mediada por células B. A prednisona, em dose de 1 mg/kg/dia, foi adicionada para reduzir a inflamação sistêmica. O paciente também recebeu transfusões de hemácias e plaquetas devido à pancitopenia severa. A TARV foi suspensa temporariamente devido à toxicidade hepática, com planejamento de reintrodução após estabilização clínica. A resposta ao tratamento foi satisfatória, com melhora dos sintomas sistêmicos e controle da linfoproliferação. O caso ilustra a complexidade do diagnóstico e manejo da DCM em pacientes imunossuprimidos. A combinação de hepatoesplenomegalia, linfonodomegalias e ascite leve, associada à hiperplasia linfóide típica, foi essencial para o diagnóstico. Coinfecções virais, como o EBV, são frequentes em pacientes com DCM associada ao HIV, agravando o quadro clínico e complicando o manejo.

A escassez de profissionais qualificados é um dos principais desafios no campo do desenvolvimento de software, um setor em constante evolução que demanda atualização contínua de habilidades. Diante desse cenário, o presente estudo teve como objetivo desenvolver uma aplicação web que utiliza algoritmos de aprendizado de máquina para identificar a correlação entre os estilos de aprendizagem do modelo teórico CHAEA e algumas das principais competências necessárias no desenvolvimento de software. Compreender os estilos de aprendizagem dos alunos é essencial, pois pode impactar positivamente o processo de ensino-aprendizagem e a futura trajetória profissional desses indivíduos. Para investigar a relação entre os estilos de aprendizagem segundo o modelo CHAEA e as habilidades requeridas no mercado de desenvolvimento de software, foi utilizado o algoritmo de aprendizado de máquina Naive Bayes. A aplicação web foi treinada com dados de respostas de profissionais da área, a fim de identificar seus estilos de aprendizagem. Os resultados demonstraram que os estilos identificados pelo questionário  CHAEA, bem como as escolhas de papéis em desenvolvimento de software, feitas pelos participantes, estavam alinhados com os dados obtidos durante o treinamento da aplicação. Concluímos que a aplicação web desenvolvida apresenta-se como uma ferramenta promissora para auxiliar tanto estudantes quanto educadores. Pode ser utilizada no planejamento de atividades voltadas para o treinamento em desenvolvimento de software, promovendo o aprimoramento de competências técnicas com base no estilo de cada profissional, além de contribuir para uma formação mais alinhada às exigências do mercado.

A globalização mundial e as transformações ocorridas dentro das organizações em geral, principalmente as públicas, têm refletido nas relações interpessoais existentes nos locais de trabalho. Assim, diante deste quadro marcado, muitas vezes, por disputas, individualismo e busca excessiva por resultados, a ocorrência de práticas de assédio moral, podem tornarem-se corriqueiras, com consequências na saúde psicofísica do servidor público. Nesse sentido, o objetivo desta pesquisa foi discutir sobre o assédio moral laboral no âmbito da administração pública, com foco principalmente nas universidades federais brasileiras. Trata-se de uma pesquisa de abordagem exploratória e revisão bibliográfica. Foram consultados artigos científicos publicados entre o período de 2013 a 2023, coletados nas bases de dados Scielo, Scopus, Spell, e Web Of Science. A pesquisa dividiu-se em três fases: identificação, triagem e inclusão. Foram analisados 9 artigos que foram incluídos nesta pesquisa. Como resultados constatou-se que a maioria dos artigos científicos incluídos nesta revisão são de abordagem qualitativa/mista e têm como principais alvos pesquisados, tanto os docentes como os técnicos-administrativos, além disso, foram encontrados poucos estudos nas bases de dados pesquisadas, uma vez que não foram identificados estudos publicados nos anos de 2017, 2018, 2022 e 2023.

A Organização Mundial da Saúde recomenda que o aleitamento materno se inicie na primeira hora de vida e permaneça como aleitamento materno exclusivo até os seis meses de vida e continuando a amamentação por dois anos ou mais. A amamentação representa uma ferramenta importante e eficaz para promover a saúde infantil e materna. O objetivo deste estudo foi identificar o conhecimento científico produzido acerca da amamentação prolongada. Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa de literatura realizada em julho de 2022 na base de dados MEDLINE via PubMed. Para a estratégia de busca foram utilizadas as combinações dos descritores “Breast Feeding”, “Child-mother relations” e “complementary feeding”. Foram incluídos no estudo sete artigos que indicaram a amamentação prolongada como uma intervenção direta para o apego seguro, melhoria na qualidade do relacionamento, saúde mental materna, além de promover um padrão saudável ao bebê. O estudo demonstrou que os benefícios do aleitamento materno prolongado foram abordados em sua maioria sob a ótica da saúde infantil e e há poucos estudos direcionados à perspectiva feminina.

As plantações de eucalipto possuem relevância mundial devido às suas características morfofisiológicas e versatilidade de uso. Essa importância desperta o interesse de produtores, pesquisadores e grandes empresas na qualidade das plantações. Dentre os fatores que podem afetar essa qualidade estão as características das mudas. Com o objetivo de entender como os critérios utilizados na escolha das mudas se relacionam com sua qualidade, foram avaliadas mudas clonais de eucalipto em ponto de expedição durante dois anos, nas seguintes estações: primavera (dezembro de 2015 e 2016), verão (março de 2016 e 2017), outono (junho de 2016) e inverno (setembro de 2016), com 200 mudas em cada estação de cada ano. O genótipo analisado foi o ‘GG100’ de Eucalyptus urograndis. Os critérios de avaliação selecionados foram altura da planta (AP), diâmetro do coleto (DC), número de folhas por muda (NF), área foliar (AF), massa seca da parte aérea (MSPA), massa seca da raiz (MSR) e índice de qualidade de Dickson (IQD). AP, DC, NF e AF foram correlacionados individualmente com as demais características por meio da correlação linear de Pearson, enquanto o grupo de características destrutivas (IQD, MSPA, MSR) foi correlacionado ao grupo de características não destrutivas (AP, DC, NF, AF) por correlação canônica. O diâmetro do coleto foi identificado como a característica de fácil mensuração mais indicada para predizer a qualidade de mudas clonais de Eucalyptus urograndis do genótipo ‘GG100’.

Registros fotográficos de situações-problema, como encontro de potenciais criadouros de larvas de insetos, podem auxiliar na conexão teoria e prática, não se limitando a um mero suporte visual, podendo desempenhar um papel relevante na educação ambiental/educação em saúde. Este trabalho apresenta o encontro dos possíveis criadouros de larvas do Aedes aegypti em um centro de ensino superior, identificando, por meio de imagens, as áreas mais afetadas e propondo medidas para o controle e combate dos focos. Foi realizado o registro fotográfico dos potenciais criadouros deste vetor, com a área do Centro dividida em: Pavilhão de Aulas, Pavilhão de Laboratórios, Prédio de Pesquisa, Prédio Administrativo em construção, Biblioteca, Pavilhão Antigo de Aulas, Prédio de Aulas desativado e Residência Universitária. Observou-se potenciais criadouros nas proximidades do laboratório, pavilhão de aulas, na construção do novo pavilhão administrativo e atrás do pavilhão do laboratório. Ao analisar as imagens, verificou-se que a Instituição proporciona ambientes propícios para a disseminação de arboviroses, uma vez que possui possíveis criadouros do mosquito Aedes aegypti. É relevante considerar diversas ações e estratégias para mitigar a proliferação do mosquito e, consequentemente, reduzir os casos de dengue e/ou outras arboviroses na área. Assim, promoveu-se práticas reflexivas de participação discente com corresponsabilidade social nas ações, a partir da apresentação dos achados em forma de banner, relatório técnico e participação em eventos locais. As atividades proporcionaram à equipe executora uma ferramenta eficaz para uma melhor compreensão do problema envolvido, servindo também como um poderoso veículo de comunicação e reflexão.

Este artigo tem como objetivo discutir o atual cenário das Comunidades Terapêuticas (CTs) no Brasil e suas consequências subjetivas a partir da análise iconográfica de imagens produzidas pelo chargista Carlos Latuff. Trata-se de um estudo qualitativo que permite descrever e interpretar elementos da realidade de cuidados em saúde mental, articulando o debate sobre os desafios da Reforma Psiquiátrica, as disputas políticas por financiamento público em saúde e a produção de sentido político no cenário artístico e o uso da religiosidade como principal recurso de tratamento. Os resultados apresentados apontam para uma escalada da lógica manicomial na atualidade, manifesta em um conjunto de práticas iatrogênicas que desconsideram evidências científicas, marcadas pela disciplinarrização religiosa e financiadas com dinheiro público. Apontam também a necessidade de construção de uma agenda política orientada para a consolidação dos princípios da reforma psiquiátrica, assim como as conquistas da Luta Antimanicomial, afastando os retrocessos viabilizados até mesmo por forças políticas progressistas no país.
