Authors: Ferreira Victor Hugo Moreira , Abraham Erastus Tangi Ndiiweda , Santos Rosana Campos dos , Souza Luisa Muglia , Alberto Barroso Castañon José
Published: May 2023

There are several catastrophic events that can happen in a city. Occurrences that present themselves with different origins and magnitudes. In the midst of this, the organization and preparation of municipalities in order to avoid or mitigate disasters become fundamental. In this context, some of the strategies involve consensus based on previous experiences added to studies and surveys supported by large organizations. From this, concepts were raised that relate before, during and after possible events. For a general assessment, it is essential to report information related to terms such as 'Resilience' and 'Humanitarian Logistics'. Within this perspective, the municipality of Juiz de Fora (MG) was studied as a practical case, considering the measures taken by the city in order to avoid catastrophes. Evaluating the possible solutions that can be used in the local context, it was demonstrated that, through the integration between different sectors of the public administration, it is possible to transform the reality of the residents of the region, bringing them greater security.

This article reinforces the importance of focusing on the socio-historical perspective in understanding human formation and emancipation of subjects, highlighting the relevance of reference authors, Marx (1970), Saviani (2011), Vygotsky (1991) and Tonet (2006) in construction of the theoretical basis. The objective of the work was to discuss, from the perspective of socio-historical practice, the process of human formation and emancipation of subjects, highlighting the importance of social and historical aspects in this process. For that, we used a methodological approach of bibliographic review, with the objective of analyzing and synthesizing the knowledge available in the scientific literature about the process of human formation and emancipation of the subjects, based on the historical-cultural theory. The reflections and conclusions presented in this work contribute to the advancement of knowledge in the area and provide subsidies for discussion and action in favor of an emancipatory human formation, capable of promoting a more just, egalitarian and transforming society.
Interest Rates Capping and Credit Uptake of Commercial Banks in Kenya
Authors:   Kenyatta University, Moenga Mamboleo Kepha
Published: May 2023

In 2016, Kenya enacted the Banking (amendment) Act 2016 which allowed lending interest rates charged by Commercial Banks in Kenya to be fixed at the Central Bank Rate plus a spread of 4% and deposit rates at 70% of the Central Bank Rate. Many banks protested this move since it meant reduced profitability. As a result, commercial banks introduced stringent credit qualification criteria locking out many borrowers who would have otherwise qualified for credit. Therefore, this study sought to establish how interest rate capping affects credit uptake of Commercial Banks in Kenya. The objectives of the study were; to determine the effect of capping lending interest rates, capping deposit interest rates, deposit interest rate spread on credit uptake of commercial banks in Kenya and the moderating effect of inflation risk premium on the relationship between interest rate capping and credit uptake of commercial banks in Kenya. The study was guided by four theories namely: Irving Fisher's Theory of Interest Rates, the Fisher Effect, Loan Pricing Theory and Loanable Funds Theory. The study conducted diagnostic test on multicollinearity normality test and Heteroscedasticity test. The study adopted descriptive research design. The target population for the study was all the 40 licensed commercial banks in Kenya. The sampling frame for the study was all (40) licensed commercial banks in Kenya. This study collected both primary and secondary data because both data reinforced each other. Primary data was collected using semi-structured questionnaires, while secondary data was collected from audited and released financial statements of Commercial Banks in Kenya for the period 2014–2019. The data was analyzed using multiple regressions and descriptive statistics namely: mean median, mode and standard deviation. Quantitative data was presented using tables, pie charts and bar graphs while qualitative data has been presented descriptively. The study established that while capping lending interest rates and interest rate spread had a significant effect on credit uptake of commercial banks in Kenya, capping deposit interest rates was insignificant and the relationship was significantly moderated by inflation risk premium. The study concluded that interest rate spread had the largest effect on credit uptake of commercial banks in Kenya followed by capping lending interest rates and lastly capping deposit interest rates. The study recommends that when formulating policies on interest rate capping, the Central Bank of Kenya should focus more on the lending side as compared to the deposits side. Keywords: Interest rates capping, Credit uptake, Lending interest rates, Deposit interest rates, Interest rates spread, Inflation risk premium.
Systemic Lupus Erythematosus in Men: Brief Description of Clinical and Laboratory Findings
Authors: Medina Castillo Diana Elizabeth
Published: May 2023

Background: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a systemic autoimmune disease characterized by the presence of nuclear autoantibodies, which can cause autoimmune complex formation and inflammation of multiple organs. It is known to affect women more frequently than men and is typically diagnosed during reproductive age, where the female-male ratio has been reported as high as 12:1. The etiology of SLE is not fully understood, but both genetic predisposition and environmental triggers are believed to be involved. Because of the multitude of presentations, manifestations, and serological abnormalities in patients with SLE, diagnosis can be challenging. Chronic discoid lupus and photosensitivity have been found in men with SLE as far as skin findings are concerned, there is less joint involvement in these patients, however, severe systemic findings predominate, such as serositis, pleurisy, central nervous system involvement with the presence of seizures. , thrombotic events and lupus nephropathy of the acute proliferative glomeruonephritis variety, serologically there is no consensus yet, nor in the specific clinical characteristics but the presence of anti-dsDNA anti-Sm antibodies and anticardiolipin antibodies is also frequently found. Therapeutic approaches predominantly involve immunomodulation and immunosuppression and are targeted to be the specific organ manifestation, with the aim of achieving low disease activity. Conclusion: We considered that although male patients with lupus are not commonly seen, the manifestations are life threatening, and timely diagnosis and treatment of the disease will lead to a better outcome for these patients.

DIREITO A DESCONEXÃO DO TRABALHO
Authors: Friedrich Natiele Cristina , Carvalho Gabriel Julio Alves
Published: May 2023

O direito à desconexão é um conceito que vem ganhando importância nos últimos anos, principalmente devido ao avanço da tecnologia e da conectividade. Trata-se do direito do trabalhador de se desconectar do trabalho fora do horário de expediente, garantindo assim o seu direito à privacidade, ao descanso e à qualidade de vida. Essa prática tem sido adotada em diversos países, principalmente na Europa, onde algumas empresas já adotaram medidas para limitar o acesso dos funcionários aos e-mails e mensagens fora do horário de trabalho. Isso porque a sobrecarga de trabalho e a pressão constante podem levar a problemas de saúde mental, como estresse, ansiedade e depressão. No Brasil, ainda não existe uma legislação específica que trate do direito à desconexão, mas alguns projetos de lei já foram apresentados com o objetivo de regulamentar essa questão. De qualquer forma, é importante que as empresas incentivem a prática da desconexão, respeitando o tempo de descanso dos trabalhadores e promovendo uma cultura de equilíbrio entre vida pessoal e profissional.

As síndromes de Dravet e Lennox-Gastaut são encefalopatias epilépticas que cursam com a deterioração ou regressão comportamental associada ao declínio cognitivo e a crises refratárias ao uso de drogas antiepilépticas e outros tratamentos existentes no mercado. Dessa forma, o objetivo deste estudo é revisar a literatura disponível sobre o uso de uma droga alternativa, o Canabidiol (CBD), no tratamento dessas condições. Levando isso em consideração, pesquisou-se nas seguintes bases de dados: PubMed/MEDLINE, Lilacs e Scielo. Foram utilizados artigos de ensaios clínicos randomizados, com restrição de publicação entre 2010 e junho de 2020. A combinação dos descritores aplicados para esta revisão sistemática da literatura foram Epilepsy OR Epilepsia OR Lennox-Gastaut OR Dravet AND Cannabidiol OR Cannabis. Dos 33 artigos encontrados, quatro foram selecionados. Seus ensaios foram realizados nos EUA, Espanha, França, Países Baixos, Polônia e Reino Unido, todos publicados em inglês. Com idades entre 2,3 e 48 anos, 355 pacientes fizeram parte desses estudos. 75% dos artigos (3/4 – 321 pacientes) mostraram uma maior redução na frequência mensal de crises nos grupos em uso de CBD quando comparados àqueles que receberam placebo. Um efeito adverso comum em todos os artigos foi o aumento de transaminases, principalmente se em associação com valproato. Em virtude dos dados documentados, foi possível confirmar a eficácia e segurança do CBD no tratamento adjuvante das síndromes supracitadas, com um aumento na qualidade de vida e redução da frequência de crises epilépticas quando comparado ao placebo.

The Pivotal Role of DPAs in Digital Privacy Protection
Authors: Popović Dušan
Published: May 2023

With the widespread use of the Internet in both personal and professional life, data protection has become a critical aspect of privacy protection. The mechanisms developed in administrative law are the main tools for personal data protection in modern societies. Within the European integration process, the Republic of Serbia has established an independent data protection authority (DPA) that supervises and ensures the implementation of data protection rules, conducts inspections, acts on complaints of persons to whom the data relates, and determines whether there has been a violation of the law. This paper commences with an analysis of international legal instruments imposing a duty to establish an independent data protection supervisory authority. It goes on to further analyze the main characteristics of the national data protection system, the personal, territorial, and material scope of its application, as well as specific rights of data subjects. The efficient protection of digital privacy primarily depends on the investigative powers of the independent supervisory authority, which are also analyzed in detail. Given the global character of the Internet, the protection of personal data also depends on efficient cooperation among DPAs, the extraterritorial application of data protection rules, and adequate regulation of international transfer of personal data.

The COVID-19 pandemic is a global crisis that has continued to impact health, population, and the economy. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of COVID-19 treatment for hospitalized patients from the perspective of healthcare providers. An observational study was conducted retrospectively by collecting data from medical records of hospitalized COVID-19 patients between April 1 and June 30, 2021. The effectiveness of the therapy was evaluated based on COVID-19 treatment guidelines in Indonesia, by calculating the number of recovered patients within 14 days. The study only considered the direct medical costs of treatment, while the cost-effectiveness was analyzed using Average Cost-Effectiveness Ratio (ACER) and Incremental Cost-Effectiveness Ratio (ICER). The results showed that the average direct cost of COVID-19 treatment per patient was approximately IDR 28,114,775.52 ± IDR 16,352,597.11. The most effective treatment was Favipiravir + Levofloxacin + N-acetylcysteine, followed by Favipiravir + Levofloxacin + Azithromycin + N-acetylcysteine, with 97% and 91% effectiveness, respectively. The ACER of COVID-19 treatments ranged from Rp 15,596,973 to 58,140,864, while the ICER was mainly located in the South East Quadrant, with Favipiravir + Levofloxacin + N-acetylcysteine being dominant compared to other treatments, saving IDR 161,653.97 to 33,870,916.17 per recovered patient. Effective COVID-19 treatments for hospitalized patients provide good value for the health system. However, this study was limited by the unavailability of the most recent information on the rapidly evolving pandemic.

Published: May 2023

Although customer loyalty has been widely investigated, few studies address the role of customer value and customer satisfaction. Besides, there is still a need for a sound theoretical framework to explain and promote business-customer relationships. This paper aims to contribute to understanding the origin and effect of the concept of loyalty in commercial relationships in the retail industry. To do so, we review and discuss the triggers of loyalty behavior in society. There is a section to explain the elements that produce loyalty behavior in the buyer and its logical sequence. Besides, we address the concepts of value and consumer satisfaction and their association with the customer's post-purchase behavior. This analysis enables a more complete overview of the customer’s behavior and allows to take well-informed actions within the retail market. Besides, it opens the door to future research related to buyer behavior in different environments, such as the digital environment.

Exploring the Effect of Peclet Number on the Transient Thermal Response of a Convective-Radiative Moving Porous Fin
Authors: Sobamowo G M. , Yinusa A. A. , Berrehal H. , Ola-Gbadamosi R. O. , Salami M. O. , Abubakar E. H. , Oladosu S. A.
Published: May 2023

In the thermal analysis of moving fins, there have been conflicting results as well as discussion on the effects of Peclet number on the thermal responses of fins. While some authors agreed the increase in Peclet number, increases the fin temperature, the other class of researchers is of the opinion that when the Peclet number increases, the fin temperature decreases. It could be said that many of these divergence views arose from the physics of the problem as well as the mathematical model governing the heat transfer problem. Therefore, in this work, through modeling from the first principle, the effect of Peclet number on the thermal behaviour of convective-radiative moving porous fin is explored. First, a transient thermal model of a convective-radiative rectangular moving porous fin with temperature-dependent internal heat generation is developed. The developed thermal model is nondimensionalized to bring up the needed Peclet number in the dimensional governing equation of the heat transfer process. Thereafter, the model is solved analytically using the Laplace transform method and the effect of Peclet number on the thermal behaviour of the fin is investigated and discussed. It is hoped that the present study will help for better understanding of the thermal problems in extended surfaces.This is an Open Access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/), which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium provided the original work is properly cited.
Isogeometric Buckling Analysis of The Magneto-electro-elastic Foam Plates Resting on An Elastic Foundation
Authors: Hung P. T. , Phung-Van P.
Published: May 2023

This study combines the isogeometric approach (IGA) and refined plate theory (RPT) with two variables to investigate buckling behavior of magneto-electro-elastic (MEE) foam plates resting on an elastic foundation. The pores in the MEE foam plates are arranged in three patterns: uniform, symmetric, and asymmetric distributions across the plate thickness. The elastic foundation supported by Winkler and Pasternak is utilized to approach computational model. The governing equations are derived by using RPT and Hamilton’s principle. The Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines (NURBS) basic functions in the IGA method are used to approximate the displacement fields, magnetic and electric potentials. The critical buckling load of the MEE foam plates is determined by solving the above governing equations with the help of the IGA. The study investigates and discusses the influence of various parameters such as the porosity distributions, porous coefficient, external electric voltage and magnetic potential, spring/shear coefficients of the elastic foundation, and the geometry of the MEE foam plates on the critical buckling load. The results show that these parameters significantly influence the buckling behavior of the MEE foam plates. This study provides valuable insights into the buckling behavior of magneto-electro-elastic foam plates and can inform the design of novel materials and structures with tailored properties.This is an Open Access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/), which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium provided the original work is properly cited.

Published: May 2023

Background: Septate uterus is a common congenital uterine malformation. It is due to abnormal resorption of the Mullerian canal in embryonic life.  Poor reproductive outcomes (e.g., abortion and preterm births) are associated with septate uterus.

Aim of the work: The present study aimed to compare scissors and resectoscope regarding the efficacy and safety in resection of uterine septum.

Patients and Methods: This study was conducted in the outpatient clinic of Al-Azhar University Hospital (New Damietta) from December 2017 to October 2020. Women were assigned into one of the two groups. The first included fifteen women, who underwent septoplasty by scissor and the Group II included fifteen women who were submitted to septoplasty by bipolar resectoscope.

Results: Group (I) had a higher pain score in group I than group II with a significant difference. Mild pain was reported in  10 cases (66.7%) in group I and 4 (26.7%) in group II. However, moderate pain was reported  for 5 cases (33.3%) and 11 cases (73.3%) in groups I and II, respectively, with a statistically significant difference. However, both groups were comparable regarding patient characteristics, operative data, postoperative complications and postoperative results of hysteroscopy, three months after the resection of the uterine septum.

Conclusion: Scissor is preferred over the bipolar resectoscope especially in thin septum.  It is associated with comparable outcome to the bipolar resectoscope. However, bipolar resectoscope was associated with significantly higher pain scores than scissors.

Authors: Teixeira Elisabete , Lima Ana , Teixeira Sandrina
Published: May 2023

"In the era of digital globalization, there are many behavioral changes in consumption. Most social media users use them to search for information about a product to determine whether they want to proceed with the purchase. Therefore, companies must develop digital marketing strategies for their profiles on social networks, especially in competitive markets, such as organic products. The objective of this study is to understand whether Facebook’s features have an influence on the purchasing behavior of consumers of organic products and which of the features has the most impact on these individuals. A questionnaire was created to carry out this study, which received 205 responses. The results of the study showed a positive influence of the following Facebook features on the purchase behavior of consumers of organic products: the “like” button, the “share” button, and the “advertising” button. Furthermore, these features proved to be more influential on Generation Z."

Studying mitigating factors of the framing effect: a survey of Brazilian university students
Authors: Santos Filipe Ferreira dos , Silva Daniel Jose Cardoso da
Published: May 2023

This research sought to identify whether factors such as age, level of Education, and Religiosity could influence the behavior of people regarding decision-making in situations where there is exposure to financial risk. The study has as its theoretical foundation the prospect theory, proposed by Kahneman and Tversky (1979), and seeks to understand the influence of the framing effect in the decision process. The sample included observations from all political regions of the country and had the participation of 423 students distributed among undergraduate courses in Business Administration, Accounting, and Economics. As an instrument of data collection, a questionnaire was applied to the students to get to know their profile, in addition to submitting them to problem questions to assess whether their behavior would be affected by the presence of financial risk in their investments. Based on the answers sent by the respondents and using Logit regressions, the results show that the variable age did not present, in any of the constructed scenarios, statistical significance to explain the rationality (or lack of it) of the choices. The results also suggest that there is no accuracy in the claim that Education can be considered a mitigating driver of the framing effect. Finally, the results indicate that only Religiosity, among the factors analyzed here, can statistically significantly influence the behavior of respondents, being considered a mitigating driver of the effects of the prospect theory, including its framing effect.

Apesar de interessantes para comercialização, a produção de plásticos atingiu graus preocupantes, ocasionando significativos impactos ambientais, que foram exaltados durante e após a pandemia do Covid-19. Assim, ficou evidente a necessidade de cuidados com a produção de insumos, particularmente descartáveis. De forma geral, a transmissão do COVID-19 e outros agentes patógenos ocorre por meio do ar, a partir de gotículas de fluidos como saliva ou muco expelidos durante a tosse. Estima-se que, em uma tossida, mais de 3.000 gotículas com diâmetros maiores que 5 µm podem ser espalhadas no ar e propagar-se por distâncias de até dois metros, contaminando diversas superfícies presentes no ambiente, onde podem permanecer ativas por períodos de tempo relativamente longos. Neste contexto, este patógeno pode permanecer viável e replicar-se na superfície de EPIs como máscaras descartáveis, tornando-as vetores de transmissão, visto que o vírus pode replicar-se em suas fibras. As máscaras cirúrgicas são produzidas utilizando TNT (Tecido Não Tecido) que precisam ter seu descarte controlado por não se tratar de um material biodegradável e reciclável. Nesse sentido faz necessário soluções que venham suprir e abastecer todo o mercado com um produto biodegradável e antiviral.

A depressão é o termo designado para indicar uma alteração do humor patológica, persistente e inapropriada. Os principais sinais e sintomas estão relacionados com o humor deprimido e a anedonia em atividades diárias. A obesidade é uma doença crônica não transmissível de origem multifatorial, definida pelo acúmulo excessivo de tecido adiposo. Segundo a OMS, 246 milhões de pessoas tiveram o diagnóstico de depressão em 2020, enquanto, mais de 1 bilhão de pessoas no mundo se encontram obesas em 2022. Vários fatores podem influenciar na sua etiologia, incluindo distúrbios endócrinos, maus hábitos alimentares, fatores genéticos e alterações psicológicas. A relação entre a obesidade e a depressão é bidirecional, podendo uma influenciar na outra. É comum que o paciente obeso sofra com preconceito enraizado na sociedade, onde existe uma idealização do corpo perfeito, levando o indivíduo a desenvolver uma baixa da autoestima que corrobora para a intensificação dos sintomas depressivos. Ademais, o paciente depressivo tem tendência ao ganho de peso, principalmente em paciente que cursam com manifestações somáticas de aumento do apetite e sedentarismo resultante da falta de prazer em atividades, isolamento social e fadiga. Percebeu-se que as implicações biológicas da obesidade acarretam em prejuízos psicológicos, neuro-hormonais e nos índices de depressão.
