MODERATIONAL ROLE OF AFTERLIFE BELIEF IN RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN RELIGIOSITY AND APEIROANXIETY
Authors: Ghayas Saba , Ehsan Saima , Bilal Zunaira
Published: August 2024

Fear of infinity or aerophobia in terms of rational fear is known as apeiroanxiety. Islam has emphasized a lot upon the infinity of afterlife including infinite rewards and infinite punishments. More often it is observed that more religious a person becomes, more knowledge of its teachings he gains and hence a clear understanding of infinite afterlife is made which is most often a source of fear and anxiety for most of the people. The present study was aimed at exploring the role of afterlife belief in relationship between religiosity and apeiroanxiety among Muslims. The study was conducted using correlational survey research design where convenient sampling technique was used for data collection. Sample comprised of 800 Muslim participants. Self-report measures were used including Apeiroanxiety Scale, Positive and Negative subscales of Afterlife Belief Scale for Muslims and Short Muslim Practice and Belief Scale Urdu version to measure apeiroanxiety, afterlife belief, and religiosity. Findings of the study revealed that religiosity had significant positive relationship with apeiroanxiety (r=0.15**). Results also showed significant results for the interactional effect of positive afterlife belief and religiosity which means moderation occurred. The significant moderation showed that positive relationship between religiosity and apeiroanxiety is weakened by positive afterlife belief. Whereas non-significant results for the interactional effect of negative afterlife belief and religiosity were found which means no moderation occurred by negative afterlife belief. Finally, conclusion, limitations and suggestions, and implications were discussed.

Authors: Santos Cicero , Zangirolami-Raimundo Juliana , Henrique De Melo Cleber
Published: August 2024

A supressão do modelo de cuidado asilar em saúde mental no Brasil sob as influências e à luz da reforma psiquiátrica, finda um novo paradigma epistemológico com um olhar dirigido para o indivíduo como sujeito nos processos de cuidado, rompendo com a lógica manicomial em torno da doença e promovendo sua participação e protagonismo nas esferas biopsicossociais. O estudo tem como objetivo geral: Descrever as práticas e atuação do profissional de Terapia Ocupacional nos Centros de Atenção Psicossocial (CAPS). Trata-se de uma revisão de literatura integrativa de caráter descritivo. A busca dos artigos foi realizada nas bases de dados Literatura Latino-Americana em Ciências da Saúde (Lilacs), Scientific Library Online (SciELO), Portal de Periódicos Cadernos Brasileiros de Terapia Ocupacional/Brazilian Journal of Occupational Therapy (UFSCar), Revista de Terapia Ocupacional da Universidade de São Paulo e Revista Interinstitucional Brasileira de Terapia Ocupacional (REVISBRATO) utilizando os descritores: ‘’Saúde mental’’, ‘’Terapia Ocupacional’’, ‘’Atenção Psicossocial’’ e ‘’Desinstitucionalização’’. Com o operador booleano AND para as especificidades do levantamento. Foram incluídos artigos que estivessem disponíveis na íntegra, condizentes com os objetivos do estudo. Foram encontrados 472 artigos, dos quais 10 foram selecionados. A partir, verificou-se que as práticas dos profissionais de Terapia Ocupacional baseiam-se em intervenções que consideram os preceitos de intersetorialidade, interdisciplinaridade, singularidade e integralidade como práticas de cuidado efetivas no que se refere à atenção psicossocial. O trabalho do terapeuta ocupacional considera o cotidiano, as trocas e as vivências no território como lócus de intervenção preponderante, entendendo que os indivíduos são produto da realidade social e ao mesmo tempo são sujeitos no processo de construção e transformação do mundo e de si próprios historicamente. O processo de cuidado apresenta grandes desafios e deve se distanciar de modelos pré-estabelecidos e/ou padronizados, uma vez que os usuários são reflexo do meio social em uma dinâmica complexa, subjetiva, dotada de contradições e singularidades.

Conazoles
Authors: Legáthová Diana , Rozman Antolíková Natália , Falis Marcel , Šmejkal Karel , Petrovič Vladimír
Published: August 2024

Conazoles belong to the group of azole-based fungicides and pharmaceutical preparations that are widely used in agriculture for crop protection and in human and veterinary medicine for the treatment of oropharyngeal and urogenital mycotic infections. The antifungal mode of action consists in the inhibition of certain cytochrome c-oxidase enzymes leading to disruption of the ergosterol metabolic pathway, which plays a similar role in cholesterol synthesis in mammals. Some conazoles possess hepatotoxic properties, some are mutagenic and tumorigenic, some are only carcinogenic and some do not act in these negative ways. In addition, their potential for cumulative exposure and deposition of residues in the human body could contribute to an increased risk of certain diseases and adverse health conditions, particularly during the foetal development. For these reasons, the risk assessment of the use of conazoles in human medicine and plant protection requires harmonisation and further research.

Contiguity as Device: The Metonymical in Tor Ulven’s Poetry
This article localizes the metonymical elements in Tor Ulven’s poetry. In his essays, Ulven expresses an awareness of the limitations of metaphor in representation. Yet, the poetic consequences of this metaphor skepticism have gained little attention. Through an analysis of some frequent motifs in Ulven’ poetry, the article investigates how Ulven makes use of contiguity, rather than similarity, as a principal poetic device. It also argues that his particular use of the word “som” (like/that) does not primarily function as a way of creating relations of similarity, but rather as a relative pronoun, where “som” activates the subordinate clause by introducing a verb. The purpose of the article is to shed light on the correspondences related to contiguity that permeate Ulven’s poetry and that, it is argued, are central to his poetic imagery.
Towards a Two-tiered Approach to Regulation of Autonomous Weapon Systems: Identifying Pathways and Possible Elements
Authors: Bruun Laura
Published: August 2024

As the global conversation on how to address the challenges posed by autonomous weapon systems (AWS) evolves, there is now growing support among states that one possible way to proceed is through a ‘two-tiered approach’. Such an approach would, on the one hand, prohibit certain types and uses of AWS and, on the other hand, place limits and requirements on the development and use of all other AWS. A critical task facing states is to agree on how such a two-tiered approach could be enacted. This report aims to help states elaborate on the content and contours of a two-tiered regulation of AWS. Drawing from insights gained during a scenario exercise convened by SIPRI in January 2024—where experts explored necessary limits and requirements for hypothetical AWS use cases—the report explores and suggests possible elements and approaches for states to consider to advance the policy discussion.

In recent years, air pollution caused by coal combustion in Ulaanbaatar city is becoming a priority health concern for the city residents and many researchers are investigating its ingredient and impact on people's health. This study aims to map Carbon Monoxide (CO) dispersion from remote sensing data during the winter season and evaluate it with the Land Use Regression (LUR) model result and fixed station measurements. Fixed station data from the National Agency for Meteorological and Environmental Monitoring (NAMEM) were utilized as a reference point for remote sensing data, a dependent variable for LUR model. Sentinel 5P TROPOMI CO data was correlated moderately-positive with fixed station measurements (R=0.56). And LUR model performance was relatively higher compared to Sentinel data or its determination coefficient R2=0.71, Adjusted R2=0.53, Root Mean Square Error (RMSE)=0.84 mg/m3 and Mean Absolute Error (MAE)=0.7 mg/m3. These statistical evaluation coefficients are relatively lower than other similar studies, and authors have adduced it to a lack of reference data and satellite data spatial resolution. Finally, these two result maps were compared, which have shown lower correlation-positive or R=0.44. Even though these two map results are not exactly the same, Pearson’s correlation coefficient shows that both image results move in the same direction or they are moderately showing the same results.

Introduction: Every year, worldwide, 14.9 million babies are born prematurely. Therefore, these children are at greater risk of respiratory, cardiac, and neurodevelopmental disorders. Purpose: The purpose of the study was to investigate the effectiveness of physiotherapy intervention in premature newborns and whether the utilized techniques promote their normal development Patients: the study population consisted of 20 randomly selected neonates. The 20 neonates were randomly divided into two groups, the intervention group (Group A, 10 neonates) and the control group (Group B, 10 neonates). Methods: In the newborns of the intervention group (A), an intervention was carried out that focused on the correct positioning in a "nest" (imitation of intrauterine experience), on the changes of supine, prone, right, and left side positions, on the reduction or elimination of stress signs and passive mobilization in the supine position. Oxygen saturation (SpO2) and heart rate were continuously recorded, as well as neurodevelopmental assessment and recording of any feeding problems. weight gain, but also the length of stay of newborns in the hospital. Results: Oxygen saturation was clearly improved in premature neonates who followed respiratory physical therapy as well as improved (decreased) heart rate. Neurological examination in the neonates of the intervention group was normal and none showed feeding problems. It was also found that the newborns in the intervention group had a more stable rate of weight gain compared to the newborns in the control group. Conclusions: It is considered necessary to implement early intervention programs to prevent or minimize the negative effects of prematurity on the respiratory and neurodevelopmental development of newborns
OVERHEAD WATER TANK CONSTRUCTION: AN INNOVATIVE STRATEGY
Authors: Mallik Dr. Mainak
Published: August 2024

The construction of an overhead water tank leads to extensive scaffolding and formwork for the full height of the tank. A steel mill in Sadat City, Egypt, required a tank with a total capacity of 275 m3 at a staging height of 36.75 meters above ground level, so it was built using the “Slip Forming and Heavy Lifting Technique”. It comprises twin chambers, each having a capacity of 75 m3 and 200 m3, supported by a circular shaft. A comparison between the methods of "slip-forming and heavy lifting techniques” and “conventional methods of construction” has been presented. “Slip Forming and Heavy Lifting Technique” is the need of the hour to provide an economical solution to the requirement of a time-bound finish to any project.

O atual mercado mundial de minério de ferro pressiona as empresas a intensificarem estudos que busquem um melhor aproveitamento de seus recursos, cada vez mais pobres em qualidade. O principal cliente, a siderúrgica, também sofre com o péssimo momento econômico e exige um produto cada vez melhor. Para atender os parâmetros exigidos pelo cliente as empresas têm investido recursos financeiros e conhecimento nas etapas finais de produção, como a concentração mineral. Principal representante da concentração de minério de ferro, a flotação reversa, utiliza reagentes com características seletivas e que modificam a superfície mineral, dentre eles coletores como as aminas primárias (R-NH2) e depressores como o amido. Neste contexto, e com a finalidade de potencializar o caráter hidrofóbico do coletor, foram realizados ensaios de flotação em bancada, empregando distintas proporções de óleo diesel e amina e variações do pH para avaliar o impacto da mistura sobre o teor de sílica no concentrado, na seletividade do processo e na recuperação metalúrgica. Os resultados foram avaliados utilizando-se planejamento fatorial de experimentos. Concluiu-se que a substituição de até 4,41% da amina por óleo diesel oferece manutenção adequada da recuperação de Fe (próxima de 78%), do conteúdo de sílica no concentrado e da seletividade do sistema.

In this study, we evaluated the effectiveness of Fusarium caatingaense URM 6778 and URM 6779 alone and combined with aqueous extracts of Ricinus communis 5% and Nicotiana tabacum 10% against Dactylopius opuntiae in the field. The effectiveness of the extracts alone was also evaluated. The botanical extracts were subjected to phytochemical screening to identify biologically active chemical compounds. Total mortality data were corrected using the Schneider-Orelli formula. The results were submitted for analysis of variance (ANOVA), and the means were compared using Tukey’s test at 5% probability. The phytochemical screening of R. communis and N. tabacum showed that both extracts contained alkaloids, flavonoid glycosides, saponins, and tannins. According to the confirmed mortality, URM 6779 (61.67%) and URM 6778 + aqueous extract of R. communis at 5% (43.89%) were the best treatments for the control of D. opuntiae in the field. The aqueous extracts of N. tabacum at 10% and R. communis at 5% resulted in mortality rates of 75.14% and 65.32%, respectively, and are also options for controlling this insect. Despite promising results, for the applicability of such agents to be safe, investigations into their toxicity to non-target organisms and their permanence in the environment are necessary.
