Published: February 2024

Background: Human toxocariasis is a zoonotic parasitic disease caused by Toxocara canis and T. cati roundworm larvae. While many studies have shown that dog and cat owners are at a higher risk of acquiring Toxocara spp. infection, there is no available evidence regarding the seroprevalence of Toxocara spp. infection among dog and cat owners in Khanh Hoa. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the prevalence of anti-IgG of Toxocara spp. infection and associated risk factors for visceral larval migrans among dog owners in three different areas of Khanh Hoa province..Subjects and methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted from 2022 to 2024 in three localities representing different socio-geographic areas (urban, rural, and mountainous) of Khanh Hoa province. A total of 1502 blood samples were collected from local individuals aged 5 to 75 for this study. Serum anti-T.canis IgG antibodies were detected using a commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit: NovaLisaTM, Toxocara canis IgG ELISA. Simultaneously, a survey using structured questionnaire about information on risk factors associated with Toxocariasis was conducted among 720 people (aged 18 and over) from 1,502 individuals whose bloods were taken for testing.Results and conclusions: A total of 1,502 blood samples were examined for the presence of antibodies to dog and cat roundworm larval infection. Results revealed an overall positive rate of 57.66% across the three localities, with variations depending on geography. In Khanh Vinh, a mountainous district, the infection rate was 75.44%, and in its commune Khanh Trung, it was 81.20%. For the two urban wards, the rates were significantly lower (Phuoc Long Ward: 44.40% and Van Thanh Ward: 54.18%). A structured questionnaire was used to investigate risk factors among 720 individuals (aged 18 years old and over) out of the 1,502 individuals whose bloods were tested. Results indicated that 389 of them tested positive for the ELISA test. Infection rates varied among age groups: under 25 years old (6.94%), 25-50 years old (66.78%), and over 50 years old (37.28%). Notably, 49.87% of infected individuals owned dogs or cats, 93.32% regularly consumed raw vegetables, and 25.71% frequently handled dogs or cats. The high infection rate of dog and cat roundworm larvae in Khanh Hoa underscores the presence of several identified high-risk factors.
Investigating the Effect of Trade Openness and Agriculture on Deforestation in Cameroon
Authors: Sotamenou Joel , Nehgwelah Glory
Published: February 2024

This study aimed to measure the effect of trade openness and agriculture on deforestation in Cameroon from 1980 to 2021 by using a fully modified ordinary least squares (FMOLS) approach. Data used are from the World Bank and FAO. The results obtained indicate that when trade openness increases, deforestation also increases, but when trade openness increases up to a certain threshold, deforestation decreases. This study also reveals that agriculture is one of the major causes of deforestation in Cameroon. Agricultural output and agricultural value-added both have a positive and significant impact on deforestation. There is an inverted curve relationship between economic growth and deforestation in Cameroon, this shows that the EKC is respected with deforestation as it is postulated that at higher levels of income, GDP turns to reduce deforestation meaning a unit change in GDP2 leads to a reduction of deforestation. We recommend the implementation of concrete actions and strict environmental policies focused on a green economy, to control the exploitation of natural resources with particular attention to the sustainable exploitation of wood. Sustainable agricultural practices should also be implemented, as well as more suitable liberal trade policies.

Authors: Vashishtha Sumit , Reddy Bhoomanna
Published: February 2024

The Anti-defection statute has a great relevance in Indian democracy. Political defections in India persist despite the Anti-Defection Laws being put into place, which begs the question of how efficient these laws are at preserving political stability and discouraging opportunistic behavior on the part of elected officials. This study looks into the causes of political defections’ continued occurrence in India and assesses how well the Anti-Defection Laws work to solve the problem. The law’s historical context, its clauses, their effects on political parties, and how the legislative process operates will all be examined in this paper. In addition to looking at proposed changes to the current system, the report will also analyze the arguments and complaints made against the law.

Authors:   Department of Orthodontic and Dentofacial Orthopaedics, JCD Dental College, Sirsa, Haryana, India, Pawar Rahul
Published: February 2024

It is of interest to compare two myofunctional appliances (frankal appliance and twin bloc) and two fixed orthodontic appliances (Power Scope and Forsus) in management of class II div 1 malocclusion. A total of 56 Class II division 1 malocclusion patients indicated for treatment with myofunctional appliances and fixed functional appliances were randomized. They were equally divided among frankal appliance (n=14), twin block appliance (n=14), Power Scope (American Orthodontics) (n=14), Forsus (3M Unitek Corp) groups (n=14). Skeletal and dentoalveolar effects of all appliances were compared. SNB increased remarkably by 4.2° in the Twin block group and it was high among all treatment groups. There was a significant decrease in vertical dimensions (SN-GoGn) in the Twin block (p = 0.002). Early treatment of Class II due to mandibular retrusion with Twin block functional appliance is recommended due to its favorable skeletal effect.

Authors: Chávez Castillo MsC. Yasna , Zañartu Dra. Isidora , Pérez-Salas Dra. Claudia
Published: February 2024

Las personas con Síndrome de Down (SD) pueden enfrentar diversas dificultades para lograr una inclusión plena en la sociedad, especialmente en el ámbito laboral. A pesar de los avances en la conciencia y el reconocimiento de la importancia de la inclusión, aún existen barreras que dificultan su participación en el ámbito laboral. Aunado a esto, la escasez de investigaciones específicas sobre el proceso de inclusión laboral de personas con SD limita la comprensión de los factores clave que podrían favorecer su plena inclusión como trabajadores/as. Con el objetivo de comprender cómo se desarrolla la experiencia de inclusión laboral de personas con SD en un servicio de comida que utiliza la estrategia del empleo con apoyo, se realizó un estudio de carácter exploratorio, de tipo descriptivo. Se utilizó una metodología cualitativa de investigación, aplicando entrevistas semiestructuradas a dos trabajadores con SD y un compañero de trabajo. Los resultados del análisis muestran una valoración positiva de los trabajadores con SD sobre su propia inclusión laboral, reflejando satisfacción con su participación y relaciones sociales. Al mismo tiempo, respecto al ambiente de trabajo se constatan desafíos asociados a la falta de un adecuado entrenamiento en las funciones que desempeñarán las personas con SD y la necesidad de modificar el diseño del trabajo para permitir una inclusión laboral real. Se reconoce la necesidad de que los entornos laborales no solo promuevan la diversidad, sino que también se acomoden de manera efectiva a las necesidades especiales de las personas con SD, para permitir su plena inclusión en la sociedad.

Published: February 2024

Objetivando analisar a associação entre as Funções Executivas (FE), aspectos emocionais e a Eficácia de um Programa de Treinamento Técnico para Adultos, adotou-se como método a pesquisa quantitativa descritiva, com recorte transversal. Participaram 92 operadores de telemarketing, do tipo receptivo e ativo de vendas, recém-admitidos por uma empresa situada em São Paulo/SP. 54 são do sexo feminino e 38 do sexo masculino, com idade entre 19 e 58 anos. Foram avaliados por testes psicológicos validados, visando compreender características da personalidade e cognitivas, além de, participarem do Programa de Treinamento de Produto. Foram testados em dois momentos, antes e depois da realização do treinamento. Como resultados, os aspectos da personalidade revelaram escores, dentro do esperado, para a população brasileira. Destacando escores baixos no fator Neuroticismo, onde se evidencia que a maioria dos sujeitos, tendem a serem mais emocionalmente estáveis e calmos, impactando menos em processos cognitivos. Na comparação pós-treino, o grupo apresentou elevação de 12% no desempenho do planejamento e 44,2% em relação à memória. Em todos os testes, em que foram avaliadas as Funções Executivas (FE) após a realização do treinamento, o desempenho foi maior e significativo, em relação à primeira aplicação. Assim, infere-se que a expressão de fatores de personalidade mais estáveis e treinos estruturados e controlados, colaboram para o melhor desempenho cognitivo.

O VALOR DA EMPRESA NA PERSPECTIVA DA OFERTA (EM TORNO DA NOÇÃO DE PREÇO MÍNIMO).
Authors: Luiz Alfredo Raposo
Published: February 2024

Este trabalho baseia-se em estudos anteriores do autor e de Fernanda Pontual. Adota, para determinar o valor de uma empresa, o ponto de vista da oferta, ou seja, de um empresário buscando determinar qual o preço mínimo a pedir por sua empresa. Reflete, portanto, a visão de um lado apenas, mas a forma de analisar proposta pode servir de inspiração para aná- lises sob o prisma do comprador. Inicialmente, os conceitos de valor patrimonial (valor estático) e de valor atual do fluxo de caixa (valor dinâmico) são submetidos a cuidadoso exame; retoma a questão da otimização, para a qual tenta desenvolver um esquema conceitual mais detalhado. São abordados, ainda, pontos como a escolha da taxa de desconto a ser utilizada e aspectos importantes da noção de fluxo de caixa.

A INTERNALIZAÇÃO DOS PREÇOS AGRÍCOLAS E A EVOLUÇÃO RECENTE DA PRODUÇÃO DE ALIMENTOS BÁSICOS NO NORDESTE
Authors: Fernandes Filho José Flôres , Campos Flávia Rezende
Published: February 2024

O processo de abertura comercial e integração econômica, associado à valorização do câmbio, levou à internalização dos preços vigentes nos mercados internacionais das commodities agrícolas que antes recebiam proteção contra importações, como arroz, feijão e milho. A consequência foi uma queda significativa dos preços internos destes produtos. A produção de alimentos básicos no Nordeste para o período analisado, no entanto, foi menos afetada pela internalização que a brasileira como um todo. Essa demonstração de resistência à crise sugere que se o Governo implementar políticas de fomento à produção regional, terá como resultado o aumento da produção, da renda, do emprego e a redução das importações desses produtos.

Authors: Lima João Policarpo Rodrigues , Sicsú Abraham Benzaquen
Published: February 2024

Examina as perspectivas da agroindústria canavieira do Nordeste brasileiro. Caracteriza a situação atual de dificuldades do setor bem como identifica as principais linhas de uma possível reestruturação que permita a sua sobrevivência em um novo patamar de produtividade e aproveitamento econômico de recursos produtivos que tendem à subutilização. Enfatiza que, embora o setor venha sofrendo as dificuldades supracitadas, há possibilidades concretas de reestruturá-lo em bases competitivas. Para tanto é fundamental repensar sua estrutura administrativa gerencial, seu perfil de financiamento e, principalmente, a base tecnológica de suas empresas. Aspectos culturais e econômicos são fundamentais para redinamizar o setor. A estratégia proposta leva em conta experiências em curso em empresas deste segmento. Uma política de modernização tecnológica pode ser pensada acoplada a uma forte articulação com o empresariado mais dinâmico do setor na região nordestina, cuja lógica, como parte de um oligopólio competitivo, sintoniza com a elevação da produtividade e com a diversificação. Os resultados práticos estão condicionados pela marcada heterogeneidade de casos, podendo apresentar amplas diferenciações.

AIGC-Assisted Instructional Design for the Self-Regulated Learning Course on "Implementing 2D Animation for the Ziyun Temple Stories"
Authors: Ying Lee, Chih , Chung Li, Kun
Published: February 2024

The instructional design effectively utilizes generative AI to assist in the self-regulated learning course "2D Animation Implementation of Chiayi Temple Stories". It adopts 2D animation and the PPVIO teaching model, leveraging generative AI to create 2D animation scripts and 2D animations. This enhances and sharpens students' storytelling, 2D animation production, and the ability to use generative AI. It also promotes social care, communication, collaboration, and practical application skills. Within the domain of animation graphics, tools like Midjourney and other image-generating AIs are used, with animations completed using the Cartoon Animator 5 software. In this teaching design, teachers play a guiding and mentoring role, leading students to ask more precise prompts to make good use of ChatGPT, and guiding students to overcome the setbacks of self-regulated learning. With the assistance of AI generation tools, students can not only achieve cross-disciplinary learning objectives but, more importantly, reduce the time needed to learn drawing tools. This allows students, even those not specializing in IT, to enhance their digital capabilities in a shorter period. Two suggestions are put forth. Firstly, in the creative section, although the use of AI generation tools is convenient, once technical barriers are removed, the educational content should elevate the level of students' professional creation, such as emphasizing artistic styles. Secondly, regarding self-regulated learning, self-regulated learning should not be pursued for its own sake, nor should learning be for the mere act of learning. It's crucial to stress self-monitoring, self-regulation, and self-discipline to truly grasp the essence of self-regulated learning.

Az önkéntes mentőszervezetek tevékenységének megújítása, az önkéntes mozgalom dinamizálása az önkéntes mentőszervezetek társadalmi kapcsolatainak erősítésén keresztül - 1. rész
Authors: Dr. Márton Balázs
Published: February 2024

Magyarországon a katasztrófavédelemben, mint nemzeti ügyben való önkéntes közreműködés egyik oszlopát az önkéntes mentőszervezetek képezik. Az önkéntesség a társadalmi tőkéből táplálkozik és a kereteit a civil szerveződések biztosítják. A minél nagyobb tömegek és szélesebb társadalmi kör katasztrófák elleni védekezésbe történő bevonása közös érdek, amely az önkéntes mozgalmak dinamizálása útján valósulhat meg. Ennek egyik módja az önkéntes mentőszervezetek társadalmi kapcsolatainak erősítése. A különböző közösségek sajátosságait figyelembe véve, differenciált módon, a már meglévő hazai, illetve más országokból elsajátított minták mentén növelhető a társadalmi részvétel az önkéntes mentőszervezetekben. Az ifjúság, a felsőoktatás, a gazdasági társaságok és más helyi közösségek specifikusan tudnak hozzájárulni a katasztrófavédelem ügyéhez és kiaknázatlan humán erőforrást jelenthetnek az önkéntes mozgalmak utánpótlásánál. A természetes társadalmi kollektívák alulról építkeznek, mindemellett több olyan eszköz is létezik, amelyek hatékony alkalmazásával az állam, a hivatásos katasztrófavédelmi szerv katalizátora lehet az önszerveződésre irányuló szociális folyamatoknak. Ezek bemutatásán kívül, a tanulmány célja, hogy gondolatébresztőként szolgáljon a közjogi és magánjogi szereplőknek egyaránt, az önkéntes mentőszervezetek mozgalmának dinamizálását a társadalmi kapcsolatok fejlesztése útján megvalósító lehetőségeket illetően. A tanulmány első részében az önkéntes mentőszervezetek szerepével foglalkozom Magyarország katasztrófavédelmi rendszerében és javaslatokat fogalmazok meg a láthatóságuk növelése érdekében.

The Need for National Standards in Breath Alcohol Testing
Authors: Malhiot Matthew
Published: February 2024

The breath alcohol test (BAT) is the most commonly used forensic test to estimate a person’s blood alcohol concentration (BAC) in the US. Despite individual states adopting per se laws making driving while having ≥0.08% BAC (or ≥0.08 g/210L breath) illegal, the US lacks national standards for breath alcohol testing. The lack of national standards for the BAT reduces confidence in the results. Many states do not implement basic quality assurance standards, such as obtaining duplicate breath samples. One way to overcome this lack of quality assurance is to tie federal funding from the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21) to quality assurance practices for the BAT.

Pembakaran yang tidak sempurna dapat mengakibatkan mesin tidak dapat bekerja dengan maksimal, bahkan akan menimbulkan kerusakan mesin sehingga membutuhkan biaya perbaikan dan penggantian spare part-nya. Injector memiliki carakerja dengan memberikan bahan bakar bertekanan tinggi dari injection pump. Fungsi utama injektor diesel adalah alat untuk mengabutkan bahan bakar hingga terpecahpecah menjadi bagian yang halus (kabut) dalam suhu tinggi. Suhu tinggi tersebut akan memberikan dampak pada mesin sehingga perlu diadakan perawatan berkala pada injektor mesin. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode pengumpulan data yang dilakukan dengan riset pustaka dan studi dokumen. Penelitian ini meliputi: mencari data mesin induk (injektor), menganalisa dan mengidentifikasi kerusakan injektor, perbaikan dan pengetesan injektor mesin.

Pengaruh Performa Turbocharger Terhadap Kinerja Mesin Induk Di MT. Green Park
Authors: Marsudi Sugeng
Published: February 2024

Mesin Penggerak Utama (MPU) atau Mesin Induk di atas kapal merupakan sebuah mesin yang berfungsi untuk menggerakkan kapal maju dan mundur. MPU memiliki dua sistem pemasukan udara pembakaran ke dalam silinder yaitu sistem pemasukan hisap yang mengandalkan kevakuman ruang bakar akibat gerakan piston atau  dengan sistem pemasukan tekan yaitu dengan melengkapi mesin dengan Turbocharger. Tujuan utam Turbocharger, menaikkan tekanan udara pembakaran dengan cara mengkompresi udara tersebut sehingga massa aliran udara masuk ruang pembakaran menjadi lebih tinggi dibandingkan udara atmosfir. Jika massa aliran udara pembakaran menurun yang disebabkan oleh berbagai kondisi, maka akan berpengaruh pada proses pembakaran yang tidak sempurna yang secara visual bisa ditandai dengan asap yang berwarna lebih hitam. Pembakaran yang tidak sempurna akan mempengaruhi daya dan kinerja mesin diesel tersebut.

Era Revolusi Industri 4.o adalah era keterbukaan, di mana semua informasi dapat dengan mudah diakses oleh siapapun termasuk anak-anak kristen. Kecanggihan teknologi dan keterbukaan informasi dapat mempengaruhi spiritual anak-anak. Anak-anak dengan mudah terpengaruh tayangan-tayangan yang menarik hati mereka sehingga membuat mereka kurang memperhatikan pertumbuhan imannya. Selain itu, kepedulian orangtua dalam mendidik iman anak juga semakin berkurang karena orangtua dituntut dengan berbagai kesibukan yang menyita waktu mereka. Untuk itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meneliti bagaimana peran orangtua dalam mendidik spiritual anak-anak berdasarkan Ulangan 6:4-9 di era revolusi 4.0. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian kualitatif dengan metode studi kepustakaan di mana data diperoleh dari sumber-sumber atau literatur yang dipilih berkaitan dengan penelitian ini. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian ditemukan bahwa ada orangtua yang memberikan perhatian terhadap pendidikan spiritual anak-anaknya dengan berpedoman kepada Alkitab dan ada juga orangtua yang tidak memberi perhatian terhadap pendidikan spiritual anak-anak. Peran orangtua sebagai pendidik spiritual anak dilakukan dengan berbagai cara seperti mengajak anak doa pagi atau doa malam, membaca Alkitab, memutarkan film rohani, menyediakan buku renungan, mengajak anak ke gereja dan menasihati anak untuk hidup sesuai dengan firman Tuhan. Dari hasil penelitian ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa orang tua kristen memiliki peran yang sangat penting dalam pendidikan spiritual anak baik ditinjau dari tinjauan teologi maupun pedagogik Pendidikan Agama Kristen. Ditinjau dari sisi teologis dan pedagogik PAK, orang tua dalam menjalankan perannya sebagai pendidik spiritual anak, orang tua harus lebih dahulu memiliki spiritual yang benar di hadapan Allah, mengenal Allah secara benar, menjadi motivator, fasilitator, guru, sahabat bahkan menjadi teladan bagi anak-anaknya.

The article addresses the fundamentals of hatred and fear in relation to alterity that contradicts the
narcissistic dream of subjective and social self-sufficiency, inside migrant communities, and the
communities that receive migrants. Migrants in Mexico are no longer equivalent to an exchange of
knowledge and experiences, and they are now seen as unpleasant. A paranoid propaganda, which can be
easily tracked in social media, has provided the figure of an undesirable migration of Central American
people. The discourse that responds to an elevation of ancient fears, is displayed by the traumatic side of
Covid 19.
