Muslimske kvinder og skilsmisse i en dansk kontekst
Authors: Liversage Anika
Published: December 2022

I Danmark kan nogle muslimske kvinder have svært ved at komme helt ud af deres ægteskaber. Det hænger sammen med forskellige opfattelser af, hvad der skal til for at opløse en nikah – et “muslimsk ægteskab”. Denne artikel bygger på interviews med fire muslimske kvinder – to indvandrere og to efterkommere – der er udvalgt fra et større interviewmateriale. Artiklen viser, at forskelle i kvindernes muligheder for at forlade deres ægtemænd blandt andet kan knyttes til følgende tre forhold: 1) Hvor og hvordan kvinderne indgik nikah, 2) kvindernes egne ressourcer, og 3) den grad af støtte, kvinderne kan mobilisere fra andre. Migrationens adskillelse af kvinderne fra deres oprindelseslandes religiøse domstole kan gøre nogle kvinder stort set magtesløse i forhold til at komme fuldt ud af deres ægteskaber. Andre kvinder står i stærkere positioner, fordi skilsmisse efter dansk ret i deres miljø anses for også at opløse deres nikah, eller fordi de står stærkt nok til selv at kunne afslutte deres nikah-forhold uanset mandlig modstand
Could Exist a Causality Between the Most Traded Commodities and Futures Commodity Prices in the Agricultural Market?
Authors: Čermák Michal , Ligocká Marie
Published: December 2022

Nowadays, many financial and academic practitioners explore the area of high-frequency forecasting in new dimensions. Research on agricultural commodities is an important issue for food policy and security. This paper is focused on the causality between the spot prices and futures prices of the main traded agricultural commodities. Thus, the Granger causality was used to identify the relationship between spot and futures prices of commodities. Our results show the Granger causality between cash prices and futures prices of wheat and cocoa. However, there is also causality in the opposite direction in the case of wheat. Causality could be related, among other things, to a specific market position of the commodity, food policy, historical aspects, the sensitivity of the market, speculation activity, tax policy, and particular interconnection of the market with the energy commodities market. In the price process of cash and futures wheat prices, inventories and storage play an important role.
Possibilia, Qualia, and Sensibilia
Authors: Voltolini Alberto
Published: December 2022

In this article I shall first and foremost attempt to show that the semantic requirements of Wittgenstein’s Tractatus logico-philosophicus intend the objects of the Tractatus to be conceived of as possibilia in the Russellian sense of 1903, i.e., as objects that may exist or may not exist; secondly, that the general ontology of the Tractatus suggests integrating this onto-semantic conception with a conception of these objects not properly as qualia but as sensibilia in the Russellian sense of 1914, i.e., as sense-data that may exist or may not exist.
Memórias de leitura literária
Authors: Veloso Geisa Magela
Published: December 2022

A pesquisa situa-se no campo da formação docente e tem por objetivo mapear práticas de leitura de professoras, retomando experiências e vivências que as constituíram leitoras de literatura. O estudo foi realizado por uma abordagem qualitativa e contou com a participação de 94 professoras dos anos iniciais do Ensino Fundamental atuantes em escolas públicas de Montes Claros – Minas Gerais. O problema de pesquisa foi formatado pela seguinte questão norteadora: As experiências vividas pelas professoras possibilitaram condições para a sua constituição leitora, como sujeitos que compreendem a linguagem literária em sua dimensão expressiva e humanizadora? Para o processo de coleta de dados foi aplicado questionário composto por questões abertas, privilegiando os processos mediados pela linguagem. Constatamos que o acesso aos textos e à leitura se processou, sobretudo, pela mediação da escola, em que as professoras vivenciaram experiências de leitura de histórias em livros didáticos e outros cânones escolares, sendo que as dificuldades de alfabetização constituíram fator limitador do prazer de ler. Com Batista (1998), concluímos que as professoras participantes do estudo são leitoras escolares e, com Britto (1998), que elas são leitoras interditadas – o que implica dizer que, como produto de uma sociedade letrada, acessam diferentes tipos de textos, mas não apresentam as características comuns aos leitores plenos.
Estágios Curriculares Supervisionados das Dupla Licenciaturas em Letras IFSP
Authors: Izumida Andrade Flavia Hatsumi , Yokota Rosa
Published: December 2022

Os estágios curriculares supervisionados (ECS) das Duplas Licenciaturas em Letras dos Institutos Federais de São Paulo (IFSP) apresentam algumas peculiaridades comparadas a outras Instituições de Ensino Superior, por isso, é importante realizar estudos que visem compreender como e sob quais perspectivas esse componente curricular vem sendo desenvolvido nessas instituições. Deste modo, objetivou-se analisar como se configuram os ECS e sob quais concepções de estágio. Para isso, foi realizada uma pesquisa qualitativa com foco na análise documental (Projetos Pedagógicos de Curso – PPCs e os seus Manuais de Estágio). A análise desses documentos foi realizada a partir dos pressupostos da Análise de Conteúdo. Constatou-se que não há vinculação com uma disciplina curricular para sua execução e existe a possibilidade de haver diferentes orientadores. No que tange às concepções de estágio, percebem-se indícios de que os ECS são concebidos como práxis e/ou pesquisa por algumas explicitações nos documentos, mas ao se analisarem as atribuições de orientadores e definição de estágio, fica evidente que o ECS é visto como o momento de prática, tanto como reprodutora de modelos e como instrumentação técnica. Desse modo, apontamos alguns desafios a serem superados, tais como a falta de autonomia dos discentes em organizar sua documentação de estágio e o fato de haver poucos momentos que abordem a reflexão e a teorização da prática dentro dos documentos.
desigualdades brasileiras começam na escola:
Authors: Ferreira Floriano Erika , Gisi Maria Lourdes , Do Prado Leandro Aparecido
Published: December 2022

O presente artigo trata da escolarização voltada para a inserção do jovem no mercado de trabalho e dos documentos e acordos, em nível nacional e internacional, que baseiam as decisões relacionadas à formação para o alcance do trabalho decente da juventude. A análise documental se dá com a avaliação do Programa Nacional de Acesso ao Ensino Técnico (Pronatec) enquanto política de Educação Profissional e Tecnológica criada no primeiro Governo de Dilma Rousseff no ano de 2011. Fica estabelecido como problema de pesquisa a relação do Pronatec com os compromissos assumidos pelo governo no período de 2011 a 2014, no que se refere à qualificação visando a inserção no mercado de trabalho e a futura emancipação social do jovem. Para tanto, contextualizam-se as políticas do período nacional internacionalmente e são apresentados índices que antecedem e sucedem o período de 2011 a 2014 a partir de Sínteses dos Indicadores Sociais do IBGE (2012, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 e 2021) e dos Cadernos de Estudos Desenvolvimento Social em Debate de número 19, 24 e 27 desenvolvidos pelo Ministério do Desenvolvimento Social e Combate à Fome. Ao longo dos anos, o Brasil é marcado por avanços e retrocessos nas garantias de direitos trabalhistas e pela disparidade na oferta da escolarização, em especial, a Educação Profissional e Tecnológica oferecida aos jovens de famílias de classes de baixa renda e que essa dinâmica tem influência direta nas colocações no mercado de trabalho formal.
experiências nas práticas curriculares de professoras:
Authors: De Lima Araújo Azevedo Ana Priscila , Andrade Ataíde de Almeida Lucinalva
Published: December 2022

O artigo intitulado “As experiências nas práticas curriculares de professoras: águas carregadas em peneiras do tempo” se insere no campo de discussões sobre currículo e práticas curriculares, em que, partimos da indagação: como as vivências de professoras egressas de uma universidade pública no agreste pernambucano se configuram como memórias e são trazidas à tona por meio da construção de documentos pessoais e (auto)narrativos. Assim, tivemos como objetivo compreender como as práticas curriculares de docentes se constituem enquanto experiências que podem representar uma desestabilização às prescrições curriculares hegemonizadas. Tivemos o auxílio de estudos sobre memórias de professores (Moraes, 2015) bem como traçamos essa discussão em movimento com a noção de experiência, a partir dos estudos de Derrida, como uma travessia e não como algo que se possa portar. Desta forma no percurso teórico-metodológico fizemos uso da escrita (auto)biográfica usando como fontes de construção de dados, uma escrita (auto)referencial, a partir da construção de documentos pessoais. Assim, tivemos como resultado a possibilidade de apreender as experiências enquanto um movimento não estático e apenas ligado ao acúmulo temporal, mas que se constituem como traços do vivido, estes traços perpassam as práticas curriculares docentes e estão presentes não só nos modos de desenvolvimento da aula como também perpassam de maneira privilegiada os processos formativos das colaboradoras da pesquisa.
Reflexões sobre o Perfil dos Discentes Cotistas da UESB
Authors: Oliveira Melo Ferraz Maisa , Passos Braga Pires Ennia Débora , Santos Silva Soane
Published: December 2022

Resultante de uma pesquisa realizada na Universidade Estadual do Sudoeste da Bahia (UESB) que teve como objeto de investigação o Programa de Ações Afirmativas, o artigo tem o propósito de apresentar e discutir o perfil dos discentes cotistas atendidos pelo programa. A pesquisa teve como orientação teórico-metodológica o materialismo histórico dialético. Estudos sobre a política pública educacional e ações afirmativas, dentre os quais,  Hofling (2001), Gomes (2001), Fonseca (2009) e outros, ofereceram os subsídos teóricos para o estudo que envolveu discentes de quatro cursos da instituição. Os dados foram levantados por meio de questionários e entrevistas. A análise do perfil dos discentes cotistas participantes da pesquisa revelou, dentre os principais aspectos pesquisados, que a maioria foi constituída de jovens (79,8%), oriundos do próprio estado da Bahia (98,2%), cuja a representatividade feminina foi maior (55,4%). No quesito cor/raça, os declarados pardos representaram um percentual de 43,4%, seguidos de negros com 31,8%. Neste ponto, 2,3% dos discentes preferiram não se declarar, o que sugeriu a existência de um racismo velado. A maioria dos pesquisados possuiam, em seu grupo familiar, baixa escolaridade quanto à formação do ensino superior, revelando o aspecto “afirmativo” do Programa de Ações Afirmativas. Quanto à renda bruta familiar, mais de 83% possuiam renda de até meio salário mínimo a 2 (dois) salários mínimos, demonstrando que não possuem renda suficiente para se manter na Universidade e necessitam, assim, do apoio institucional. Se alterações estruturantes não ocorrerem, o acesso continuará sendo viabilizado, porém os segmentos historicamente excluídos permanecerão à margem.

Histórias Vitalinas de uma Tropeira da Instrução (1937-2007)
Authors: Dias da Rocha Bezerra Amália Cristina
Published: December 2022

A pesquisa sobre a trajetória de escolarização e de atuação profissional de Severina Félix de Araújo foi realizada a partir do acervo privado, onde consta documentos escolares, fotografias e registros autobiográficos. A legatária do acervo produziu uma arvore genealógica e dos níveis de instrução de sua família, na qual ela foi a primeira de uma geração a ingressar na escola pública na infância. Antes de si e depois de si, Severina procurou saber datas de nascimento, casamento, níveis de instrução dos filhos, netos e bisnetos de sua mãe, Vitalina Pereira de Araújo. Assim, a investigação pretende situar porque Severina foi a primeira a ter uma trajetória escolar e se tornar docente. A professora ainda produziu um caderno com dados sobre as matrículas que exerceu no magistério, com datas de ingresso, escolas e séries lecionadas. A documentação, cotejada com a historiografia, permite conhecer a trajetória de escolarização vivenciada da década de 1930 a 1970 e o exercício do magistério até a aposentadoria nos anos 2000. A necessidade de migrações, mudanças de bairros, cidades e estados deu contornos às oportunidades educativas e profissionais. A partir da trajetória de Severina emergem aspectos da história da oferta da escola pública e da profissão docente no Brasil no século XX. Nessa perspectiva, para além de apresentar uma trajetória escolar e profissional a partir do acervo privado, a documentação foi cotejada com a historiografia da educação para analisar como sujeito, estrutura e contexto se espreitam no processo histórico e as intenções de memória inscritas na constituição deste acervo biográfico.
Uma história das leishmanioses no novo mundo: anos 1960 ao século XXI – Amazônia
Authors: Benchimol Jaime Larry , Peixoto Cláudio de Oliveira
Published: December 2022

Do ponto de vista historiográfico e metodológico, a maior contribuição do livro é a capacidade dos autores de concatenar diferentes sujeitos e territórios na longa duração, estabelecendo fluxos geracionais, identificando influências intelectuais, mapeando genealogias e trajetórias, conectando diferentes tempos e espaços em torno de uma doença – a leishmaniose –, fazendo confluir múltiplos e independentes canais de energia criativa, digamos assim, para uma espécie de ponto de fuga. Ao mesmo tempo em que caracterizam uma comunidade epistêmica, tecem narrativas paralelas, tal como um argumento que se desenvolve em camadas. Por exemplo, esmiuçam as controvérsias científicas inerentes à parasitologia, como a da relação parasita hospedeiro, enquanto exploram as agruras políticas e ambientais decorrentes da descoberta de Carajás ou da construção da Transamazônica. O que une ou costura a narrativa de Benchimol e Peixoto é a leishmaniose, presente no horizonte de interesses de pesquisadores de diversas nacionalidades, nas agendas de instituições de pesquisa e de agências governamentais, no dia a dia de serviços médicos e de saúde e na vida das populações afetadas por desastres perpetrados pelo Estado brasileiro.

Authors: Prakash Shikha , Singh Prashant , Nagayach Pooja , Singh Kalpana , Bharti Rajni , Prakash Gunjan
Published: December 2022

Introduction: Microvessel density, as a measure of angiogenesis, predicts prognosis in prostate cancer. Angiogenic Index (AI, numerical value of angiogenesis) minimises the possible variation concerning the width of the microscopic field, stromal epithelial relations and cellular tumour size. Aim: To study AI in prostate cancer and its correlation with Gleason Grade (GG) and Gleason Score (GS). Materials and Methods: The present cross-sectional, study was done at Postgraduate Department of Pathology, Sarojini Naidu Medical College, Agra, India, from September 2019 to December 2020. Twenty five histopathologically confirmed prostate adenocarcinoma specimens from radical prostatectomy, Transurethral Resection of Prostate (TURP), and needle biopsy were included in the study. These cases were categorised according to Gleason Grade (GG); Gleason Score (GS) was assigned to each case. The GSs were simplified into three groups: low (GS 2-6), intermediate (GS 7) and high-grade (GS 8-10). Immunohistochemical {Cluster Differentiation (CD) 31} blood vessel staining was done to calculate AI. Statistical significance was determined by Unpaired t-test. Results: All the cases were males with age range from 55 to 76 years (mean age was 65.48±5.62 years). Mean AI was 13.74, 83.76, 163.27, 299.12 for the GG1, GG3, GG4, GG5 respectively. Mean AI was 29.72, 82.67, 129.15, 186.65, 191.93, 307.34 for GS 2, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 respectively. Comparing GG among themselves, statistically significant difference in AI was found between GG3 vs GG4 (p-value=0.0056, r-value=0.5269). Difference was also statistically significant between GG3 vs GG5 (p-value=0.000011, r-value=0.8030) and GG4 vs GG5 (p-value=0.0036, r-value=0.5806). In all scores combined, the mean AI was 56.20 for low-grade (GS 2-6), 129.15 for intermediate-grade (GS 7), 247.35 for high-grade (GS 8-10). Statistically significant difference was found in between AI (p-value<0.05) in all Gleason scores. Conclusion: Positive correlation was observed between AI, GG and GS in prostatic adenocarcinoma. AI may be of immense value to predict prognosis of prostatic adenocarcinoma.
Intermittent Fasting Modulates the Glycogen Level in Zebrafish (Danio rerio) and their Next Generation

Published: December 2022

Introduction: Zebrafish (Danio rerio) has become the best model organism to study the evolutionary biological process and human developmental studies. The liver glycogen plays a vital role in maintaining cellular metabolism, accumulation of glycogen in liver affects the enzymes related to glycogen metabolism. Aim: Impact of intermittent fasting, refeed and overfeeding in glycogen homeostasis on Zebrafish (Danio rerio) and their F1 generation. Materials and Methods: The present in-vivo study demonstrates the effect of intermittent fasting on glycogen storage in zebrafish and their F1 generation. The study was conducted at Department of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Annamalai University, Chidambaram, Tamil Nadu, India. The duration of study was carried out for one month (December, 2021) for both parental and their F1 generation (April, 2022) groups. The F1 generation fishes involved after its matured (three months). The zebrafish (AB strain) were randomised and split into five experimental groups such as control, overfed, 12 hours, 24 hours, and 48 hours intermittent fasting. The F1 generation from each group was treated as same as parenting groups. The physiological and histological changes were observed in the study group. Significant results were evaluated as p<0.05 values turkey’s method was used. Results: The fasting and overfeeding significantly affects the physiological condition like body weight, length and Body Mass Index (BMI). The parental control and their F1 have a BMI of 0.042±0.04 g/ cm² and 0.041±0.04 g/cm². The maximum fasting treated groups (48 hours) of both parent and their F1 generation shows reduced BMI such as 0.032±0.03 g/cm² and 0.030±0.04 g/cm². The over feed group shows a BMI of 0.053±0.05 g/cm² and 0.052±0.05 g/ cm². The result demonstrates that the food-deprived groups and their F1 generation showed less glycogen storage in histological observation. The reefed and overfed groups and their F1 generation exhibit more glycogen accumulation in the liver. The result confers normal regulation of glycogen synthase and glycogen synthase kinase 3 in normally in control and fasting groups as well as in their F1 generation. Conversely, the overfeeding and refeed groups show modulated glycogen activity in both parent and their F1 generation. Conclusion: Glycogen accumulation leads too many diseases and it also affects the generations. The frequent fasting may help to minimise glycogen accumulation and BMI level reduces the complications of disorders related to glycogen homeostasis.
Genetic Variability Studies for Yield and Its Attributing Traits in Niger (Guizotia abyssinica (L.f.) Cass)
Authors: Saraswat Swati , Bisen Rajani , Kumar Vinod
Published: December 2022

The experiment was conducted during Kharif 2020 and 2021 at Jawaharlal Nehru Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, India. A total of 103 accessions including 03 checks  were assessed and observations were recorded for ten traits viz., days to flower initiation, days to 50 % flowering, days to maturity, plant height (cm), number of primary branches per plant, number of secondary branches per plant, number of capitula per plant, number of seeds per capitula, 1000 seed weight (g) and seed yield per plant (g). REML analysis discovered significant differences among the 103 accessions for all the traits. It indicates a satisfactory amount of genetic variability among the accessions for yield and yield-attributing traits. Values of phenotypic coefficients of variation were higher than the value of genotypic coefficients of variation in this study. High heritability was noted for all the traits under the experiment. Genetic advance as a percentage of mean recorded high for seed yield per plant followed by number of capitula per plant, number of seeds per capitula, number of primary branches per plant, number of secondary branches per plant, 1000-seed weight whereas, trait days to 50% flowering, days to flower initiation and days to maturity exhibited low magnitude. These results indicate the dominance of the additive gene effect, which will aid in selection in an early segregating generation.

Published: December 2022

The primary goal of this study is to investigate the influence of performance evaluation on employee turnover intention in the public sector, with the case being a government agency established by an Act of National Assembly in Nigeria. The study design is descriptive, with primary data collected via questionnaire and secondary data collected via articles, conference proceedings, the internet, and a textbook. The quantitative method used total enumeration technique, with the population equaling the sample size (275). To analyze the gathered data, one hypothesis was developed and an inferential statistical tool, Structural Equation Modelling (SmartPLS-SEM) version, was used. The results revealed that performance evaluation significantly influences employee turnover intention in the federal government agency used as a study (Adj R2=0.406; p=0.000, Q2 =0.253). The study concluded that performance evaluation has a significant impact on employee turnover intention; thus, the researcher recommended that the agency's leadership implement a system that combines satisfaction with financial incentives, material rewards, and psychological rewards to reduce employee turnover.
Associação entre nascidos por cesárea e desenvolvimento de doenças alérgicas em crianças e adolescentes
Authors: Barcelos Gabriela Borgmann , Gomes Daiene Rosa , Oliveira Danila Soares de , Mattos Mússio Pirajá
Published: December 2022

Introdução: a via de nascimento tem sido considerada como um possível fator de risco para a ocorrência de doenças alérgicas em crianças e adolescentes, sendo este um dado preocupante, tendo em vista o aumento da prevalência dessas afecções no mundo.Objetivo: Analisar a associação entre o nascimento por cesárea e o desenvolvimento de doenças alérgicas em crianças e adolescentes. Metodologia: revisão sistemática com metanálise de estudos indexados nas bases de dados PubMed, Science Direct e BibliotecaVirtual em Saúde, com uso dos descritores em saúde: “cesarean section”, “hypersensitivity”, “allergic rhinitis”, “asthma”, “atopic dermatitis”, “food allergy”, “child”, “adolescent”. A qualidade dos estudos foi avaliada através da ferramenta Quality Assessment Toolfor Quantitative Studies – (QATQS). Resultados: foram incluídos 23 trabalhos na revisão e 21 foram selecionados para metanálise. A prevalência de cesárea variou de 7,8% a 50,8% e a prevalência de doenças alérgicas esteve entre 0,77% e 42,5% na população nascida por essa via. Observou-se uma associação positiva entre parto por cesárea e presença de rinite alérgica (OR=1,30; IC95%: 1,18-1,43) e asma (OR=1,44; IC95%: 1,38-1,49), não sendo encontrada associação significante entre a cesariana e o desenvolvimento de dermatite atópica (OR=1,02; IC95%: 0,96-1,09) ou alergia alimentar (OR=0,99; IC95%: 0,82-1,19). Conclusão: o nascimento pela via de parto cirúrgico pode estar contribuindo com o aumento do número de casos de alergias na população pediátrica e, ainda que haja heterogeneidades entre os estudos analisados, existem riscos que devem ser levados em conta na análise dessa relação em futuros trabalhos que investiguem essa problemática.

Published: December 2022

Introdução: A dentina e o osso alveolar apresentam muita semelhança em sua composição. Sendo assim, podemos considerar sua utilização como recurso alternativo nas intervenções que buscam a regeneração tecidual. Objetivo: o presente estudo realizou uma revisão integrativa da literatura sobre o uso da dentina como biomaterial para regeneração óssea. Materiais e Métodos: foi realizada uma busca por artigos, nas bases de dados Medline, via PubMed; Scielo, LILACS, BASE, Scopus e Science Direct, que avaliassem ou descrevessem o uso da dentina como biomaterial para regeneração óssea. Foram utilizados os seguintes descritores: “Dentin” AND “Bone Regeneration”, sem delimitação de tempo. Os critérios de inclusão foram: estudos clínicos publicados em periódicos, oriundos de dados primários, sobre o uso de dentina como biomaterial. Os critérios de exclusão foram: revisões de literatura, estudos in vitro e em animais, estudos que não fosse possível o acesso na íntegra e estudos que associassem o uso da dentina com outros biomateriais sem que fosse possível relacionar os resultados apenas pelo uso da dentina. Resultados: vinte e três estudos foram selecionados para a presente revisão. As pesquisas demonstraram que há uma heterogenicidade relacionada ao tamanho da partícula de dentina obtida, que pode ser decorrente de diferentes métodos de processamento. Conclusão: a reutilização da dentina como biomaterial pode ser uma alternativa promissora ao enxerto autógeno. Sugere-se, então, que protocolos de processamento da partícula de dentina sejam melhor estabelecidos e estudos longitudinais precisam ser realizados para a garantia de procedimentos seguros, eficazes e práticos.

A normalidade dos dados foi verificada pelo teste de Shapiro-Wilk, comparação de cor pelo teste t dependente, comparação dos microrganismos pelos testes ANOVA de medidas repetida e Tukey. Resultados: as análises de cor dos dentes não evidenciaram nenhuma alteração significativa em nenhum dos tempos investigados. No fluxo salivar, pH e Lactobacillus não houveram alterações significativas. Na quantidade de Streptococcus mutans notou-se um aumento significativo quando comparado os valores após o primeiro uso e com 30 dias. Conclusão: a soluçãode enxague bucal contendo peróxido de hidrogênio a 1,5% não apresentou alteração significativa na coloração dos dentes e nenhum efeito colateral significativo na atividade cariogênica de acordo com os testes e períodos avaliados
The inner journey in dreams
Authors: Bowater Margaret
Published: December 2022

Research confirms that we dream every night about matters of current emotional significance. This means that a client's dreams will provide a continuing commentary on matters touched in therapy, potentially a rich resource to both client and therapist, yet far too often undervalued in practice. What happens to the dream ego is a metaphor about what happens in reality. This paper outlines the 'inside story' of a client's journey through the first year of therapy, as seen through a summary of her dreams.

This essay is a study of the work I am doing with a client who weighs 148kg. The initial phase of therapy and aspects of our work to date are described, with emphasis on the model and techniques of The Healing Dance Therapy that are employed, and on the relationship that has developed between this client and myself the therapist, as a result. The paper is also a story about dance.
Admission and exclusion
Authors: Farrell Mary
Published: December 2022

The rules of belonging to a group can be clear and transparent or hidden and opaque. This paper examines some of the problems that can be experienced by members and provisional members of NZAP and draws analogies with Shakespeare's Hamlet. Of particular interest are the play's themes of protocol, power, betrayal and hypocrisy and how they can affect large group interaction. The pain and shame of self-consciousness and of feeling excluded can result in continuing difficulties when we meet together in large groups.
Harmony of illusions: Inventing Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
Authors: Coates Tony
Published: December 2022

If you look up Post Traumatic Stress Disorder on the internet you will find that PTSD is a real disorder, a real illness (like a physical illness) that needs real treatment.
This book runs counter to the tendency to construe mental disorders as real physical illnesses. The author does this by revealing the historical context in which the notion of posttraumatic stress first arose. He claims that PTSD is a "condition" whose popularity has grown out of proportion to the limited evidence for its validity as a clinical entity. Furthermore, he also claims that PTSD fits a profession's need for a "serious" mental disorder that requires psychotherapy as its primary mode of treatment, at a time when medications have come to be seen as the primary treatment from most Axis I psychiatric disorders.

Soft Pneumatic Actuators with Controllable Stiffness by Bio‐Inspired Lattice Chambers and Fused Deposition Modeling 3D Printing
Authors: Lalegani Dezaki Mohammadreza , Bodaghi Mahdi , Serjouei Ahmad , Afazov Shukri , Zolfagharian Ali
Published: December 2022

This article shows how changing 3D printing parameters and using bio‐inspired lattice chambers can engineer soft pneumatic actuators (SPAs) with different behaviors in terms of controlling tip deflection and tip force using the same input air pressure. Fused deposition modeling (FDM) is employed to 3D print soft pneumatic actuators using varioShore thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) materials with a foaming agent. The effects of material flow and nozzle temperature parameters on the material properties and stiffness are investigated. Auxetic, columns, face‐centered cubic, honeycomb, isotruss, oct vertex centroid, and square honeycomb lattices are designed to study actuators’ behaviors under the same input pressure. Finite‐element simulations based on the nonlinear hyper‐elastic constitutive model are carried out to precisely predict the behavior, deformation, and tip force of the actuators. A closed‐loop pneumatic system and sensors are developed to control the actuators. Results show that lattice designs can control the bending angle and generated force of actuators. Also, the lattices increase the ultimate strength by controlling the contact area inside the chambers. They demonstrate variable stiffness behaviors and deflections under the same pressure between 100 and 500 kPa. The proposed actuators could be instrumental in designing wearable hand rehabilitative devices that assist customized finger and wrist flexion‐extension.

Published: December 2022

Filter‐free narrowband photomultiplication‐type planar heterojunction (PHJ) organic photodetectors (PM‐PHOPDs) are first realized by employing a thick front donor layer and an ultrathin PC71BM layer. The thick front donor layer is employed as an optical field adjusting (OFA) layer. The sequentially coated PC71BM will diffuse slightly into OFA layer, which works as interfacial electron traps to capture photogenerated electrons for assisting hole tunneling injection. The P3HT/PC71BM‐based PM‐PHOPDs exhibit narrowband response with full‐width of half‐maximum of 32 nm and external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 1700% at 650 nm under −20 V bias. Due to the enhanced hole transport and reduced charge recombination in PHJ compared to those in bulk heterojunction (BHJ), the EQE of P3HT/PC71BM‐based narrowband PM‐PHOPDs is twice as P3HT:PC71BM BHJ‐based narrowband PM‐OPDs under the same bias. The response peak of PM‐PHOPDs is adjusted from 650 to 695 or 745 nm by incorporating SMPV1 or DRCN5T in OFA layers due to the red‐shifted absorption edge. The EQEs of 3600% at 695 nm and 870% at 745 nm are obtained for P3HT:SMPV1 and P3HT:DRCN5T‐based PM‐PHOPDs under −20 V bias, respectively. This work provides a smart strategy to achieve narrowband PM‐OPDs by designing different OFA layers.
Giant Polarization in Quasi‐Adiabatic Ferroelectric Na+ Electrolyte for Solid‐State Energy Harvesting and Storage

Published: December 2022

The advent of new solid‐state energy storage devices to tackle the electrical revolution requires the usage of nonlinear behavior leading to emergent phenomena. The ferroelectric analyzed herein belongs to a family of electrolytes that allow energy harvesting and storage as part of its self‐charging features when thermally activated. The Na2.99Ba0.005ClO electrolyte shows quasi‐adiabatic behavior with a continuous increase in polarization upon cycling, displaying almost no hysteresis. The maximum polarization obtained at a weak electric field is giant and similar to the remanent polarization. It depends on the temperature with a pyroelectric coefficient of 5.37 C m−2 °C−1 from −5 to 46 °C. The emergence occurs via negative resistance and capacitance. The glass transition is found to have its origins in the sharp depolarization at 46 – 48 °C. Above –10 °C, at ≈ –5 °C, another thermal anomaly may rely on the topologic characteristics of the A3–2xBaxClO (A = Li, Na, K) glass electrolytes enabling positive feedback of the current of electrons throughout the surface of the inner cell. The phenomena may pave the way toward a better understanding of dipolar nanodomain fragile glasses with exceptional ferroelectric characteristics to architect energy harvesting and storage devices based on multivalent thermally activated Na+‐ion‐ion electrolytes.
Artificial Synapse Based on Oxygen Vacancy Migration in Ferroelectric‐Like C‐Axis‐Aligned Crystalline InGaSnO Semiconductor Thin‐Film Transistors for Highly Integrated Neuromorphic Electronics

Published: December 2022

Artificial synapses are a key component of neuromorphic computing systems. To achieve high‐performance neuromorphic computing ability, a huge number of artificial synapses should be integrated because the human brain has a huge number of synapses (≈1015). In this study, a coplanar synaptic, thin‐film transistor (TFT) made of c‐axis‐aligned crystalline indium gallium tin oxide (CAAC–IGTO) is developed. The electrical characteristics of the biological synapses such as inhibitory postsynaptic current (IPSC), paired‐pulse depression (PPD), short‐term plasticity (STP), and long‐term plasticity at VDS = 0.1 V, are demonstrated. The measured synaptic behavior can be explained by the migration of positively charged oxygen vacancies (Vo+/Vo++) in the CAAC–IGTO layer. The mechanism of implementing synaptic behavior is completely new, compared to previous reports using electrolytes or ferroelectric gate insulators. The advantage of this device is to use conventional gate insulators such as SiO2 for synaptic behavior. Previous studies use chitosan, Ta2O3, SiO2 nanoparticles , Gd2O3, and HfZrOx for gate insulators, which cannot be used for high integration of synaptic devices. The metal–oxide TFTs, widely used in the display industry, can be applied to the synaptic transistors. Therefore, CAAC–IGTO synaptic TFT can be a good candidate for application as an artificial synapse for highly integrated neuromorphic chips.

Promoting light absorption range of photocatalysts is of great significance to improve solar light‐driven photocatalytic CO2 reduction efficiency. Herein, a new viologen‐based multicomponent heterotrimetallic metal–organic framework (MOF) [Cu3Th6(µ3‐O)4(µ3‐OH)4(cpb)12][FeIII(CN)6]6 (IHEP‐14) with an unprecedented (6, 18)‐connected she‐d topology is presented. Upon UV irradiation, this MOF undergoes ligand and iron photoreduction, and a single‐crystal‐to‐single‐crystal transformation to generate persistent radical‐containing MOF [Cu3Th6(µ3‐O)4(µ3‐OH)4(cpb•)12][FeII(CN)6]6 (IHEP‐15). This radical‐containing MOF shows excellent stability without fading after at least 2 months in air. Besides extending the photoabsorption to a wider wavelength range covering from 200 to 2,500 nm, the generation of persistent radical in IHEP‐15 also largely enhances its CO2 adsorption capacity by a factor of three due to the strong affinity between π orbital of the radical and the π system of CO2. These attributes endow IHEP‐15 with excellent visible/NIR light‐driven CO2 photoreduction activity, with CO production rates under visible and NIR irradiation of 570.3 and 209.3 µmol h−1 g−1, respectively. Notably, the latter is a record high for NIR‐induced CO production among all MOFs reported so far.
Submicron‐Sized In Situ Osmotic Pressure Sensors for In Vitro Applications in Biology

Published: December 2022

Physical forces are important cues in determining the development and the normal function of biological tissues. While forces generated by molecular motors have been widely studied, forces resulting from osmotic gradients have been less considered in this context. A possible reason is the lack of direct in situ measurement methods that can be applied to cell and organ culture systems. Herein, novel kinds of resonance energy transfer (FRET)‐based liposomal sensors are developed, so that their sensing range and sensitivity can be adjusted to satisfy physiological osmotic conditions. Several types of sensors are prepared, either based on polyethylene glycol‐ (PEG)ylated liposomes with steric stabilization and stealth property or on crosslinked liposomes capable of enduring relatively harsh environments for liposomes (e.g., in the presence of biosurfactants). The sensors are demonstrated to be effective in the measurement of osmotic pressures in pre‐osteoblastic in vitro cell culture systems by means of FRET microscopy. This development paves the way toward the in situ sensing of osmotic pressures in biological culture systems.

Published: December 2022

ZnSe/ZnS core/shell quantum dots (QDs) are environmental‐friendly blue light‐emitting material, which can easily achieve deep blue emission upon external excitation. However, its deep valence band (VB) and numerous defect states remain handicap to realize sufficient performance of quantum dot light‐emitting diodes (QLEDs). In this work, high‐performance cadmium‐free ZnSe/ZnS QLEDs by constructing a double organic hole‐transport layer (HTL) to obtain carrier balance are presented. The double HTLs, which consist of poly(9,9‐dioctylfluorene‐co‐N‐(4‐butylphenyl)diphenylamine) (TFB) and 2,7‐dioctyl[1]benzothieno[3,2‐b][1]benzothiophene (C8‐BTBT), can suppress the accumulation of electrons between the HTL and the emissive layer (EML), leading to more hole and electron recombination luminescence in QD layer. In addition, the C8‐BTBT layer is conducive to improve the uniformity of QDs film. Thus, the resulting device achieves an external quantum efficiency of 7.23% with TFB/C8‐BTBT double HTLs, which is almost 150% higher than that of traditional devices based on a single hole‐transport layer (4.84%). The authors anticipate that these results can provide a guidance for the optimization of cadmium‐free blue QLEDs.
