Published: August 2024

In development and migration studies, understanding the impact of policies and development interventions is one of the major research priorities. However, when carrying out research with beneficiaries of development projects in Africa, there are numerous challenges that - if not carefully considered - will jeopardize data quality. Even though there are some methodological articles and reflections on monitoring & evaluation and on quantitative research with beneficiaries of development projects, not much has been written on the specific challenges that qualitative data collection faces in these situations. Drawing on 28 FGDs and 144 IDIs conducted in the timespan of 18 months of qualitative fieldwork research with project beneficiaries in Southern Ethiopia, we give fieldwork advice, and provide actionable recommendations for future research, revolving around 1) the importance of pre-testing, 2) verifying age and other personal characteristics of informants, 3) the outsider-insider debate, 4) sampling and communication with NGO staff, 5) expectations, vulnerabilities and behavior of individuals.

Keeping guinea pigs in a vivarium differs from keeping them at home, while zootechnical conditions must meet all the needs of animals. To do this, it is necessary to comply with the optimal size of the cells of the content, as well as the recommended parameters of the microclimate, including temperature and humidity. It is also important to properly prepare diets that take into account the requirements of the nutritional needs of guinea pigs. To reduce stress and anxiety levels in guinea pigs, a suitable enrichment environment is provided for them, the choice of which depends, among other things, on their behavioral characteristics. To maintain the number of livestock at the required level, animal reproduction is being introduced. At the same time, it is necessary to create parental pairs correctly, and also take into account the time of the first mating, since guinea pigs have calcification of the fibrous-cartilaginous pubic symphysis, which negatively affects reproductive ability in the future. The search for publications was performed in the PubMed and Google Scholar databases. The review inclu­ded searchable publications as of April 10, 2023. This review contains data on the basics of keeping guinea pigs in a laboratory, including optimal options for group keeping of guinea pigs and parameters of their maintenance cells, optimal microclimate parameters and types of environment enrichment, feeding and watering of animals, as well as features of their reproduction, based on from the reproductive indicators of males and females.

Authors: Berlian Dana , Andri Andri , Apriana Agung
Published: August 2024

Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh Bank konvensional dan Bank syariah yang memiliki aturan yang sangat berbeda dalam pemberian kredit dan pembiayaan maupun jasa perbankan lainnya yang dilakukan oleh bank tersebut. Akan tetapi peraturan yang telah ditetapkan harus mengikuti pada peraturan perbankan yang berlaku secara umum. Aturan pemberian kredit pada bank konvensional bisa menerapkan denda atau bunga pada nasabah. Penelitian yang dilakukan adalah penelitian kualitatif yang bersifat deskriptif. Hasil dari penelitian yang diperoleh menunjukkan bahwa pembiayaan bank syariah mempunyai beberapa perbedaan dengan sistem pemberian kredit yang ditetapkan pada bank konvensional. Jika ada nasabah yang meminjam dana kepada bank syariah, maka pihak bank maupun nasabah akan melakukan perjanjian di awal pembiayaan untuk nanti nya di anggap sebagai pengikat kontrak anatara pihak bank dan nasabah. Perjanjian yang telah disepakati oleh kedua pihak akan menjelaskan tentang kerugian jika terjadi akan hal seperti itu maka akan ditanggung oleh kedua belah pihak bersama. Dalam perjanjian bagi hasilnya pun tidak ada unsur pemaksaan. Jika dengan perhitungan bagi hasil bank mendapatkan keuntungan lebih, maka laba akan dibagi bersama dengan nasabah. Dan jika pihak bank mengalami kerugian maka pihak nasabah pun turut menanggung resiko.

Ectopia cordis is a congenital heart malformation of the sternal wall, with a prevalence of 0.1% among heart conditions and an incidence of 5.5 to 7.9 per million births. It is characterized by the heart being located outside the thoracic cavity, and it may be accompanied by other congenital anomalies such as omphalocele, Cantrell´s pentalogy, or Fallot´s tetralogy. We present a case of thoracic ectopia cordis in a male neonate. After birth, we also observed a midline thoracic malformation and respiratory difficulties with clinical and paraclinical features consistent with tetralogy of Fallot. It was decided to provide skin flap coverage, and due to the poor prognosis of the heart condition, palliative care was chosen. Unfortunately, the neonate passed away after seven days. This clinical case study contributes to understanding this rare condition and may help improve diagnosis and treatment of affected patients.

Kadınların siyasette yetersiz temsili veya siyasetten dışlanmaları dünyada ve Türkiye’de önemli tartışma konularından birini oluşturmaktadır. Bu konu ise ulusal ve yerel olmak üzere iki temel düzeyde ele alınmaktadır. Birçok ülkede yerel düzey kadın temsilinin artması ve kadınların ulusal siyasette de etkili olabilmeleri için öne çıkan bir araç olarak görülürken, Türkiye’de tarihsel süreçte ortaya konan veriler Türk paradoksu olarak adlandırılan farklı bir resim ortaya koymaktadır. Dolayısıyla yerel düzeydeki bu temsil yetersizliği üzerinde düşünülmesi gereken bir konudur. Literatürde bu sorun üzerine gerçekleştirilen tartışmalar nedenleri ve farklı birim ve görev türlerinde kadın temsili oranlarını tartışmaya açmaktadır. Nitekim bu çalışmalar anlamlı veriler ortaya koymaktadır. Ancak bu birimler ve görevler arasında gözden kaçırılan alanlar da olabilmektedir. Belediye birlikleri bu alanlardan birini oluşturmaktadır. Bu birliklerin meclisleri kentlerde oluşan yerel birimlerin başkanları ve meclisleri içerisinden seçilen üyelerden oluşmaktadır. Kadınların bu birimlerde temsil durumları da temsil tartışmaları açısından dikkate alınmalıdır. Çalışmada amaç bu birliklerde kadınların temsilini tartışmaya açmaktadır. Bu doğrultuda ulusal/bölgesel farklılıkları ve üye belediyelerin meclisleri ile birlik meclislerinde kadın temsili arasındaki ilişkiyi ortaya koymak üzere Doğu Karadeniz Belediyeler Birliği çalışmanın sahası olarak seçilmiştir. Bu doğrultuda Doğu Karadeniz Belediyeler Birliği Meclisinde görülen kadın temsil oranı üye belediyelerin meclislerindeki kadın oranıyla kıyaslanmakta, böylelikle farklı birimler temelinde bölgesel bir analiz yapılmaktadır. Çalışma neticesinde üye belediyelerde kadın temsilinin Türkiye verilerine kıyasla düşük olduğu, belediye birliği meclis üyeliğinde bu oranın daha da azaldığı anlaşılmaktadır.

AbstractBackground: Diet and yoga both contribute significantly to overall health,particularly respiratory function. However, the impact of vegetarian and nonvegetarian diets on lung function among yoga practitioners remains unclear. Thisstudy aimed to evaluate the effect of vegetarian versus non-vegetarian diets onspirometry-measured lung function in yoga practitioners.Methods: A cross-sectional study design was employed, involving 100 yogapractitioners (50 vegetarians and 50 non-vegetarians). Participants were matchedfor age, gender, and duration of yoga practice. Spirometry tests measured ForcedVital Capacity (FVC), Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1), and theFEV1/FVC ratio. Data were analyzed using independent samples t-tests, paired ttests, repeated measures ANOVA, and Pearson correlation coefficients. Ethicalapproval was obtained, and written informed consent was provided by allparticipants.Results: There were no significant differences in FVC, FEV1, or FEV1/FVC ratiobetween vegetarians and non-vegetarians. Both groups showed significantimprovements in FVC and FEV1 post-yoga (p < 0.01). Repeated measures ANOVAindicated a significant main effect of time (p < 0.01) but no significant interactioneffect between diet type and time (p = 0.34). Weak, non-significant positivecorrelations were found between vegetarian diet adherence and lung functionparameters.Conclusions: Yoga practice significantly improves lung function, regardless ofdietary pattern. Both vegetarian and non-vegetarian diets are compatible with therespiratory benefits of yoga. This suggests flexibility in dietary recommendationsfor yoga practitioners aiming to enhance respiratory health.Keywords: Yoga, Vegetarian Diet, Non-Vegetarian D

Carrying out domestic tasks and leisure activities in populations with atypical development has been associated with several benefits, including improvement in indicators of adaptive functioning, however, the practice of these activities by people with some disability presents low adherence. The aim of the study was to identify predictors of participation in leisure activities and household chores in children and adolescents with intellectual disability (ID) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) (clinical group, n=62) compared to a control group of children and adolescents with typical neurodevelopment (n=62) according to parents. Parents/caregivers responded to the leisure questionnaire, Children Helping Out – Responsibilities, Expectations and Supports, Adult Self Report for Ages 18-59, Brief Problem Monitor - Parent Form for Ages 6-18, WHOQOL brief and family socioeconomic classification form. The frequency of participation (p=0.001) and leisure hours (p=0.001) were statistically lower in the clinical group compared to the control group. Children and adolescents in the clinical group had significantly more emotional and behavioral problems than the control group (attention: p=0.001; internalization: p=0.025; externalization: p=0.025), just as their parents had lower quality of life indicators (physical: p=0.003; psychological: p=0.001; social: p=0.008). The quality of personal relationships, social support and parents' sexuality were associated with the number of domestic tasks performed by their children (p=0.054). These results highlight the need for parents and caregivers of children and adolescents with ID and ASD to be involved in interventions that promote their mental health and social support, as these are fundamental to promoting the autonomy and adaptive functioning of their children.

A investigação analisou o contexto da escolarização de alunos com deficiência na região ribeirinha amazônica, na etapa do ensino fundamental, buscando identificar os alunos público-alvo da educação especial no ensino municipal público, os apoios oferecidos e os desafios relativos à observância da política nacional de inclusão. O método é quanti/qualitativo, descritivo, configurando-se como pesquisa documental, adotando a hermenêutica como perspectiva analítica. A coleta de dados, através de informações oriundas da Secretaria de Educação e do Sistema Integrado de Gestão Educacional do Amazonas, contemplou, documentos referentes às matrículas discentes e docentes, projeto político pedagógico, planejamentos e relatórios das atividades educacionais. Os resultados indicam que os alunos com deficiência são atendidos em escolas regulares e na APAE, evidenciando desigualdade de recursos e apoios recebidos. O número restrito de profissionais que atuam no Atendimento Educacional Especializado e na equipe pedagógica sinaliza dificuldades no acompanhamento de professores e repercute nas possibilidades de aprendizagem dos alunos. Assinala-se que as dimensões culturais e territoriais presentes na região ribeirinha amazônica precisam ser consideradas pela política educacional da rede de ensino, na direção da garantia de uma escola para todos.
O jornalismo como uma estratégia comunicacional para os museus públicos
Authors: Silva Nathalia Lopes da
Published: August 2024

O presente artigo apresenta os resultados de pesquisa exploratória sobre as estratégias comunicacionais dos museus da Fronteira Oeste do RS. A coleta dos dados foi realizada a partir de três instrumentos: 1) questionário, 2) pesquisa em plataformas digitais de comunicação e 3) entrevistas semiestruturadas. O presente trabalho apresenta também uma reflexão sobre como o jornalismo pode se caracterizar como uma tecnologia do imaginário sobre os museus e argumenta porque este pode ser classificado como atividade da Indústria Criativa. Inicialmente, constatou-se que a falta de ações de comunicação midiática pode ser um fator de manutenção do imaginário social sobre os museus, bem como o jornalismo pode ser classificado como uma tecnologia do imaginário.
