“Make it difficult”: using disfluency to minimize higher motivation effects on fake (and real) news dissemination on social media
Authors: Viacava Juan José Camou , Coelho Bruno dos Santos Borba , Sabin Giovane , Lopes Gloria Faria
Published: July 2024

Purpose: To investigate the effect of disfluency (perceived difficulty) and prior motivation to do and disseminate electronic word-of-mouth (eWOM) on headlines/posts online, as well as the mediating role of perceived truth.
Design/methodology: This study involves three online experiments emulating “X” (former Twitter) messages and Instagram/Facebook posts. Disfluency was measured in Experiment 1 and manipulated in Experiments 2 and 3 while also measuring prior motivation to disseminate eWOM.
Findings: higher prior motivation increased fake and authentic news dissemination, but disfluency diminished this effect through its influence on perceived truth.
Originality/value: These results demonstrate that people tend to disseminate authentic and fake news owing to a carryover effect, and this tendency is affected by prior eWOM motivation. Disfluency can, thus, not only help prevent fake news dissemination but also inhibit authentic (real) news dissemination. These effects are due to perceived truth, not attention or perceived relevance, and only affect people with higher eWOM motivation. Because the perceptual disfluency manipulations tested are like what occurs daily (i.e., “dark theme” in smartphones and Instagram’s use of font colors), we propose that similar proceedings can decrease the mass propagation of widely disseminated fake news.

Authors: Nambiar Kavya   B. , Miranda Jyothi
Published: July 2024

Mangrove forests are among the world’s most productive ecosystems situated at the interface between land and sea/backwaters in tropical and subtropical latitudes.  Mangrove vegetation in three geographical regions of Kannur on the southwest coast of India was assessed for its community structure and diversity indices. Thirteen true mangrove species belonging to 9 genera and 7 families formed the mangrove vegetation of the region. Highest density was recorded for Acanthus ilicifolius (7953 stems/ha), followed by Rhizophora mucronata (3750 stems/ha). A. ilicifolius is the most common species with maximum important value index (IVI) of 49.19. Shannon-Weiner Index of diversity ranged from 2.249 to 2.527.   Kunhimangalam region have more species richness with a Simpson dominance index of 0.920 and Shannon - Weiner index of 2.527.  The sites selected were distinct from each other as the species diversity varied due to the climatic, biotic, anthropogenic stresses at each location.  The need to gain further knowledge about the mangrove flora of the region to help the conservation of mangrove ecosystems is highlighted.

Published: July 2024

Marine algae contain diverse bioactive compounds with pharmaceutical and nutraceutical importance. The present study was aimed at exploring one such alga, Sargassum polycystum, belonging to the phaeophyceae family. The seaweed was extracted with two different solvent systems and subjected to phytochemical analysis, antimicrobial and antioxidant studies. The extract showed wide variety of phytocomposition and was found to possess significant antimicrobial activity against bacterial and fungal pathogens. For antioxidant activities, DPPH assay, Hydroxyl radical scavenging assays, Phosphomolybdenum reduction and Fe3+ reducing power assays were carried out. The extract exhibited remarkable antioxidant activity in all the assays, especially in Fe3+ reducing power assay and hydroxyl radical scavenging, a maximum inhibition of 96.27 and 84.14% was observed, respectively. Also, the GC-MS analysis further confirmed the presence of isoflavone, a phenolic compound that signifies the role in antioxidant activity.

Hydrobiological Heterogeneity and its Impact on the Pargwal Wetland Ecosystem
Authors: Sharma Arti , Jamwal Neha
Published: July 2024

One of the key landscapes on earth are the wetland ecosystems which are extremely crucial for the sustenance of various ecological realms as they provide immense ecosystem services to them. From serving impressive hosts to many organisms, particularly migratory birds, and successfully aiding in useful interactions between various biotic and abiotic components, wetlands have a remarkable repute. It has been a matter of only few decades that interaction of man with wetlands has resulted in severe degradation of these ecological repositories. Similar is the case of Pargwal wetland of lower Shivalik, located about 5 km from the international border in Akhnoor tehsil of Jammu and Kashmir division. Continuous interference from the human habitation, encroachment of wetland area, conversion into agricultural area, illegal sand mining, construction of cemented pillars for bridge, are just to name a few leading causes of its dwindling status. The present study is a data generated for seasonally for one year and assessment of the degrading parameters were made. Based on the water quality parameters, the wetland turned out moderately alkaline in nature and WQI showed poor water quality at all the study stations, depicting its deteriorating state. Also, aquatic insects that serve as important bioindicators were implemented for assessing the water quality using various biotic indices. Thus, a pioneer attempt has been made to decipher the causes of the continuing deterioration status of this immensely important wetland by analyzing its hydrobiology, which if not paid heed, will result in total territorialization of this intermediate water resource.

Authors: Mendes Pedro Puttini , Oliveira Francisco Henrique de
Published: July 2024

A pesquisa analisa a legislação internacional dos países do Mercosul, Venezuela e dos três países com maior produção de alimentos (China, Estados Unidos e Índia) relacionada à proteção florestal privada e uso econômico de produtos florestais não madeireiros. A pesquisa revela que muitos países estão atualizando suas leis florestais em diferentes óticas de sustentabilidade e níveis de proteção. O estudo destaca a importância da ampliação das discussões de normatização da proteção florestal e seu uso econômico sustentável para garantia de segurança jurídica e desenvolvimento sustentável. A metodologia utilizada inclui pesquisa documental exploratória e comparação com normas de outros países. A pesquisa conclui que, dentre os países analisados, o Brasil é o único a exigir percentual de conservação de vegetação nativa em propriedades privadas para a proteção da biodiversidade, sem qualquer tipo de contrapartida financeira ao proprietário, mas não o único a permitir uso sustentável de recursos florestais não madeireiros.

THE SYNTACTIC MEANS OF EMPHASIS IN THE ENGLISH PROMOTIONAL DISCOURSE
Authors: FILYASOVA YU.A.
Published: July 2024

The article considers the emphatic patterns of syntactic structures used for highlighting communicatively relevant elements in promotional discourse with a strong persuasive effect. The research was conducted on the material of 19 automobile promotional brochures containing valuable information about automobile brands and their manufacturers for the target audience. The aim of the research was to study emphatic structures occurring in the English promotional discourse and determine the most frequently used types of emphasis. The study found that the emphatic displacement towards the anaphoric syntactic position occurred most frequently for underlining semantically relevant speech elements. The anaphoric emphasis is intended for the rhematization of thematic parts, which, nevertheless, does not diminish the significance of the cataphoric position, being traditionally occupied by the rheme. In addition, the syntactic emphasis was actively accompanied by discursive intensifier words, which, according to the quantitative data, were used in the middle of the emphatic sentences most frequently, thus fulfilling the function of retaining attention in continuation of the emphatic beginning. Due to the rheme displacement and discursive words, the entire emphatic structure becomes in the focus of readers’ attention against the background of surrounding discourse. The most common syntactic means of emphasis, in descending order, are the following: fronting, pseudo-cleft and cleft sentences, inversion, elaborative, introductory and duplicative sentences. The results of the research can be used for teaching linguistic text analysis and applied aspects of linguistics to students specializing in linguistics and professional English to students majoring in advertising and PR.
CULTURAL STANDARDS OF MODESTY IN THE RUSSIAN AND CHINESE LANGUAGES
Authors: BOGDANOVA L.I. , XU L.
Published: July 2024

The article examines cultural standards of modesty in the Russian and Chinese languages. The study is based on dictionaries and text corpora of two languages. The purpose of the work is to determine universal and nationally specific features in the formation of cultural standards of modesty in the Russian and Chinese languages. The object of the study is modesty as a traditional value of Russian and Chinese linguistic cultures. Modesty is encoded using cultural standards that reflect the essential features of modesty as a sociocultural value that characterizes Russian and Chinese cultures. The study found that in the Russian language, modesty, which is predominantly gender-based, is mainly associated with the image of a girl (woman). Modesty as a universal human quality is realized contradictorily: 1) “the modesty of a hero, a real person” and 2) “the modesty of a quiet, timid, dependent person.” In Chinese linguistic culture, “modesty” occupies a strong position, and its “standard” implementation, determined by the ideas of Confucius, is an integral part not only of etiquette, but also the worldview of the Chinese. In the Chinese language, the “standard” implementation of modesty, defined by the ideas of Confucius, is an integral part of etiquette. The Chinese modesty system is associated with natural objects and plant images that are of great importance to Chinese culture. The results of this study can be used in lexicographic practice and in teaching Russian and Chinese languages.

Authors: SEMAEVA O.V.
Published: July 2024

The article is devoted to the analysis of the effectiveness of the use of specific English-language alliteration in Russian-language ergonyms and advertising slogans. The purpose of this work is to determine the degree of emotional impact of this stylistic device on native Russian speakers and, as a result, its effectiveness for use in creating ergonyms and advertising slogans in the Russian language. The objectives of this study include the analysis of differences in approaches to the definition of the stylistic device “alliteration” in the English-speaking and Russianspeaking linguistic traditions; collection and analysis of Russian-language ergonyms and advertising slogans, built on the basis of specific English alliteration, by the method of continuous sampling. The research also looks into the functions of alliteration techniques in the Russian-language ergonyms and slogans, includes a sociolinguistic survey in the form of a questionnaire among 125 native speakers of the Russian language aged 18 to 40, of different professions, with University degrees.

The paper provides examples of Russian-language names and advertising slogans created using specific English alliteration. The results of the study indicate that specific English alliteration plays a role in promoting the attractive and aesthetic functions through ergonyms. The analysis of the sociolinguistic questionnaire showed that in five out of the seven proposed categories, the survey participants preferred ergonyms and advertising slogans created using this technique. Taking into account the results of the study it can be concluded, that today a specific English alliteration is an effective linguistic technique used in the Russian language for creating ergonyms and advertising slogans.
SEMANTIC AND PRAGMATIC ASPECTS OF MODELING THE IMAGE OF A RUSSIAN ADVOCATE (BASED ON THE JOURNAL “RUSSIAN ADVOCATE”)
Authors: SOLOVYEVA YU.O.
Published: July 2024

The article presents the results of a linguopragmatic study of explicit and implicit means used by journalists of law-related corporate mass media to model the positive image of a modern Russian lawyer. The author observes that at present there is a social need to replace deeply rooted negative stereotypes about lawyers/advocates in the collective consciousness, since it is the representatives of the law who form patterns of law-abiding behavior. Mass media play a significant role in forming images of lawyers whom many Russian citizens rarely meet in person. Analyzed interviews with lawyers and lawyer biographies enable the recipients to learn more not only about the professional activities but also about personal life and inner world of lawyers, thus, demonstrating a great potential in modeling their images. The article highlights and analyzes three aspects that, in the author’s opinion, are of greatest importance for creating a positive image of a lawyer in modern Russian society

DEVELOPMENT OF THE SOCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE OF THE RUSSIAN EMPIRE AT THE TURN OF THE 19TH-20TH CENTURIES
Authors: SHEVKUNOV G.A. ,   Lomonosov Moscow State University
Published: July 2024

In modern historical science, one of the explanations for the causes of the revolutionary events of 1917 is the assertion that the political regime that existed in the country at the beginning of the last century was an obstacle to the movement of society forward. This should also manifest itself in a slowdown in the development of social infrastructure. In this regard, the article, for the first time in Russian science, sets the goal of giving a comprehensive description of the development of social infrastructure in Russia at the turn of the 19th-20th centuries. Particular attention is paid to those areas of infrastructure, the influence of the state on the state and development prospects of which is especially noticeable. These include public health, education, development of science and technology, and transport. To achieve this goal, primarily systematic, historical and comparative methods, as well as factor analysis, were used. The result of the study was the conclusion about the progressive development of the above areas of social infrastructure in the decades preceding the revolution, which was largely determined by the activities of public authorities.
THEORY AND PRACTICE OF STAFF MOTIVATION IN THE LIGHT OF INTEGRATION PARADIGM
Authors: PUGACHEV. V.P ,   Lomonosov Moscow State University
Published: July 2024

The article is devoted to the substantiation of the integration paradigm for understanding the motivational process of personnel and to identifying the possibilities of its scientific, theoretical and applied application. It analyzes existing scientific approaches to motivating organizational personnel, showing their methodological limitations and inconsistency with the needs of modern digital society in a holistic, systemic representation of the motivational process, which becomes possible on the basis of the proposed new, integration paradigm of motivation based on the use of activity-based and systemic approaches. System-activity methodology allows us to consider organizational motivation as an integral process of determining the behavior of employees in their practical, individual and collective, managerial and executive, constructive and destructive activities. In the integration paradigm, the fundamental categories of the concept of motivating personnel behavior are rethought, as close as possible to reality, and various, including spontaneous, factors of its determination are taken into account in scientific research and practical work. Attention is focused on the need for collective development, based on the imperatives of the integration paradigm, of a general model of the motivational process, representing various determinants of individual and collective organizational behavior of people in their holistic interaction. Such a model, embodied in appropriate computer programs, could serve as a scientific and applied basis for managing organizational motivation, using which one can take motivational work to a new, higher level that meets the requirements and capabilities of the digital society.

Authors: LEONTEVA L.S. ,   Lomonosov Moscow State University, GOLUBTSOV I.A. ,   Lomonosov Moscow State University
Published: July 2024

This work is dedicated to the exploration of regional initiatives for state support of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the Russian Federation. SMEs play a crucial role in the country’s economic development, and the government actively promotes their growth through various programs and initiatives. Despite the existence of a complex set of financial, informational, and legal instruments at the national level, regions devise specific actions tailored to the unique needs of the labor market, resource base, and other factors. The objective of this work is to identify the characteristics of regional initiatives for state support of SMEs, taking into account both internal and external factors influencing their success. To achieve this goal, a combination of general scientific and specific methods is employed, including content analysis and comparative analysis. The research findings indicate that regional initiatives for state support can significantly contribute to the development of SMEs. However, the success of such initiatives depends on multiple factors, including effective management, accessibility of financial resources, and the level of entrepreneur involvement. Scope of application of the research results: activities of regional authorities, entrepreneurs, researchers in the field of entrepreneurship theory and practice, addressing issues related to the support of small and medium-sized businesses. The conclusions of this research underscore the importance of collaboration between government entities and entrepreneurs in creating effective mechanisms to support SMEs, reinforcing the position of small and medium-sized enterprises in the Russian Federation’s economy, and fostering its sustainable socio-economic development.

Authors: Ryśnik Jakub , Polechoński Jacek , Szczechowicz Bartosz , Tomik Rajmund
Published: July 2024

Purpose. The development of virtual reality (VR) offers new opportunities for users to carry out some forms of physical activity (PA) in a virtual environment. However, these solutions are not widely used and their potential is not fully explored by PA practitioners and promoters. The main objective of the study is to assess the potential for the use of non-immersive and immersive virtual reality (nIVR and IVR) technologies in PA by future healthy lifestyle promoters based on their cycling experiences in a virtual environment.Methods. Forty students from the Academy of Physical Education (AWF) in Katowice, Poland, including 20 females (age: 22.352.32 years) and 20 males (age: 22.952.19 years), were surveyed and completed the authors’ questionnaire in order for the potential of nIVR and IVR technologies to be assessed in PA.Findings. The respondents were positive about the potential of IVR in the context of supporting PA, as demonstrated by quantitative analysis of the collected material, with a significantly stronger declaration of willingness to use IVR and its recommendation to other users compared to nIVR technology. Furthermore, a qualitative analysis of the respondents’ open-ended statements revealed that for PA in IVR, the participants showed a broader spectrum of benefit categories than for PA in nIVR. Research limitations and conclusions. The sampling applied in the study means that the conclusions cannot be generalised to the entire population of potential VR technology users during PA.Practical implications. The highly rated potential of IVR in the context of supporting PA should provide inspiration for both PA planners and promoters of active video games (AVGs). Virtual training may become a mass phenomenon in the near future.Originality. The study regards the potential of using VR technology for PA, consisting of three components: intention to use VR in PA, perceived benefits of VR and PA, and willingness to recommend VR in PA.Type of paper.

On The Meaning of Learning: Reflections with Dewey
Authors: Barer-Stein Thelma
Published: July 2024

John Dewey's educative process and Barer-Stein's learning process offer
two perspectives that may enhance the adult educator's glimpse of the
true meaning of learning. The congruency of these two processes provides
a strong basis for speculating that learning and educating may be differing
aspects of the same process; that the learning of children and the learning
of adults may be congruent; and finally, that a form of reflective thinking
may be central to each and essential to an outcome of personally relevant
meaning. Some implications of these speculations for adult educators are
offered; other implications are left for individual reflection.

Résumé

Le processus éducationnel de John Dewey et le processus d'apprentissage
de Barer-Stein offrent deux perspectives qui peuvent élargir la vision qu'a
l'éducateur d'adultes du sens réel de l'apprentissage.

La congruence de ces deux processus fournit une base solide à la
spéculation sur l'idée que l'apprentissage et l'éducation peuvent être des
aspects différents d'un même processus; que l'apprentissage chez les
enfants et l'apprentissage chez les adultes peuvent être congruents; enfin,
qu'une forme de pensée réfléchie peut être au centre de chacun d'eux et
essentielle à l'atteinte d'un sens personnel pertinent.

Quelques implications de ces spéculations sont offertes aux éducateurs
d'adultes; les autres sont laissées à la reflexion personnelle.
1972- Year of Affirmation for Adult Education
Authors: Selman Gordon
Published: July 2024

By the early 1970's adult educators had become accustomed to
having their field largely ignored by public inquiries into the field
of education. Three reports published in 1972--UNESCO's
Learning To Be and the Worth (Alberta) and Wright (Ontario)
Commission reports in Canada—gave great prominence to adult
education and lifelong learning. This article examines the nature
of these reports including the origins and background of some of
the ideas contained in them. The article also considers several
other events of the same period, the effects of which combined to
raise the visibility of adult and lifelong education and to move
them closer to the mainstream of educational planning.

Résumé

Au début des années 1970, l'éducation des adultes était largement
ignorée dans les enquêtes publiques sur l'éducation. Trois
rapports publiés en 1972 - le rapport de la Commission Faure à
l'UNESCO, Apprendre à être, et les rapports Worth (Alberta) et
Wright (Ontario) au Canada - ont accordé une grande importance
à l'éducation permanente. Cet article examine la nature de ces
rapports et notamment l'origine et le contexte de certaines idées
émises. Il retrace aussi plusieurs autres événements qui sont
survenus durant la même période et qui ont contribué à
augmenter le visibilité de l'éducation permanente et à les
introduire comme bases de la planification de l'éducation.
Access to Information on Adult Education Abroad: Comparative Content Analysis of Selected Adult Education Journals
Authors: Kulich Jindra
Published: July 2024

This study deals with the extent to which adult educators in a
number of countries have access to information about adult
education in other countries through the pages of their national
adult education journals. It is based on a conviction that adult
educators in any country can benefit from being informed about
developments abroad. The study covers a 15 year period, 1972-
1986. Fifteen journals from eleven countries were subject of the
analysis. The study revealed that in terms of frequency and
volume adult educators in Poland had the most access to
information about adult education abroad, while colleagues in
New Zealand had the least access, with Canadians being next to
last in access.

Résumé

Cette étude traite de l'accès des éducateurs d'adultes aux travaux
de leurs collègues oeuvrant dans d'autres pays. Pour celà, les
revues spécialisées en éducation des adultes d'un certain nombre
de pays ont été examinées. L'étude s'appuie sur la conviction que
les éducateurs d'adultes peuvent tirer profit d'une meilleure
connaissance de ce qui se fait ailleurs dans le monde. Elle couvre
une période de 15 ans, de 1972 à 1986. Quinze revues
spécialisées, publiées dans onze pays, ont été analysées. L'étude
révèle qu'en termes de fréquence et de volume d'information, les
éducateurs d'adultes polonais ont le meilleur accès à ce qui se fait
à l'étranger; les collègues néo-zélandais ont le plus faible accès et
les Canadiens les précèdent de peu.
Factor Structure of Variables Associated with Dropout: A Confirmatory Study
Authors: Garrison D.R.
Published: July 2024

Understanding and predicting dropout in adult education
necessitates not only multivariate but multifactor designs. As a
result, considerable conceptual and technical sophistication is
required to deal with this complexity. One method of approaching
this problem is through a conceptual offering of variables
associated with adult dropout. This study addressed the internal
and external validity of a theoretically derived and confirmed
typology of dropout factors originally proposed by Garrison (1988).
Additional variables were included based upon Tinto's (1975) and
Boshier's (1973) theories of dropout and a different population of
learners was the focus for data collection. The findings confirmed
the original typology but concluded that the original typology was
a higher order factor structure where each of the original factors
is likely to be multifaceted. The relationship of this typology with
reported participation and nonparticipation factor structures is
also discussed.

Résumé

Pour comprendre et prédire les abandons en éducation des
adultes, il faut des devis non seulement à variables multiples
mais aussi multifactoriels. Ce qui signifie que pour bien cerner
cette complexité, il faut être très sophistiqué au plan conceptuel
et technique. Une méthode pour aborder le problème est
l'utilisation d'un ensemble de variables associées au phénomène
de l'abandon chez les adultes. Cette étude a examiné la validité
intrinsèque et extrinsèque d'une typologie des facteurs d'abandon
développée par Garrison (1988), cette typologie ayant d'abord été
dérivée théoriquement puis vérifiée. Les théories de l'abandon de
Tinto (1975) et de Boshier (1973) ont inspiré l'ajout de variables.
Une population différente d'apprenants a été le focus pour la
collecte des données. Les résultats, bien qu'ayant confirmé la
typologie initiale, mènent à la conclusion que cette typologie est
une structure factorielle d'un niveau plus élevé, où chacun des
facteurs initiaux peut avoir de multiples facettes. La relation de
cette typologie avec les structures factorielles de participation et
de non participaton est discutée.
Critical Social Theory: A Perspective for Critiquing Professionalization in Adult Education
Authors: Alexander Anne
Published: July 2024

This article explores how critical social theory can provide a
perspective for critiquing professionalization in adult education. In so
doing the nature of the relationship between the professionalization
and social movement trends in adult education is addressed. A
number of concepts articulated within critical theory are discussed for
their relevance to the professionalization issue. Habermas's work is
highlighted, drawing parallels to the work of Freire. Lastly, the
specific issues and questions raised by the perspective of critical
theory are reflected upon as they apply to the professionalization of
adult education today.

Résumé

Cet article explore la théorie de la critique sociale en tant qu'approche
pour une analyse critique de la professionnalisation de l'éducation des
adultes. Ce faisant, la nature du lien entre professionnalisation et
courants sociaux est spécifiée. Certains concepts propres à la théorie
critique sont discutés quant à leur pertinence dans le domaine de la
professionnalisation. L'oeuvre de Habermas est mise en lumière et des
parallèles sont établis avec l'oeuvre de Freire. Enfin, certaines
questions spécifiques dégagées de la théorie de la critique amènent
une réflexion sur l'état actuel de la professionnalisation de l'éducation
des adultes.
Women's Learning: Implications for Adult Education Research and Practice

futurs enseignants.

Abstract

This study was designed to explore the type of identity developed by students involved
in a teacher education program. The study attempts to determine the distribution of
student-teachers according to Mania's four categories of identity status (Le., achieved,
moratorium, foreclosed, or diffuse). A sample of French speaking students (N=410)
registered in the teacher education programs of the University of Ottawa and
Laurentian University completed a questionnaire assessing identity status
development, the Extended version of the Objective Measure of Ego Identity
(Grotevant and Adams, 1984). Results indicate that nearly 80% of the students
questioned are experiencing a positive resolution of their identity stage while close to
20% tend toward a negative resolution. The study also yields variables that can be
linked to the identity development of future teachers. Age, parental status, marital
status and full time work experience were found to be related to identity formation.
The choice of university, type of teacher education program, and level of teacher
specialization do not seem to be related to identity development of future teachers.
Diversity at school: Promoting inclusion with Turma da Mônica

This article is an experience report about a workshop conducted in collaboration with a class from the Escola Municipal Professora Luiza de Castro Ferreira e Silva, in line with an activity proposed by the Pedagogical Practice discipline, with the aim of addressing the topic of inclusive education with the community. The selected target audience was a group of 40 students, aged between 9 and 12 years. Dynamic and participatory activities were carried out, aiming to provide them with a greater understanding of some disabilities and their particularities, using, as a resource, the characters from the animated series "Turma da Mônica", which have such representations. Based on these activities, a mural was created with drawings made by the children, which was exhibited to the Chemistry Degree class. This experience contributed significantly to expanding the students' knowledge about the topic addressed, thus promoting greater inclusion and respect for others.

The growing demand for food has contributed to the increase in plastic waste, mainly from packaging. In 2020, only 23.1% of post-consumer plastic waste was recycled in Brazil, resulting in a significant amount of non-biodegradable waste that remains in the environment for long periods, affecting human health and the environment. Most of this waste comes from traditional petroleum-based food packaging, such as polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene. It is estimated that annually, 31.9 million tons of plastic waste enter the environment, with a considerable portion contaminating the oceans. Despite these environmental challenges, the demand for plastics is expected to continue to grow to meet society's resource-efficient needs (FERREIRA et al., 2022).

Objective: To identify possible associations between serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D and dyslipidemia in the elderly. Method: A cross-sectional study. For sample consisted of 80 elderly people monitored at a Geriatric Outpatient Clinic of the University Hospital in Alagoas, Brazil. In this study sociodemographic variables, lifestyle, health conditions, anthropometrics, body composition and biochemical tests were collected (serum lipid profile, 25-hydroxyvitamin D, us-RCP, PTH and calcium). Results: It was observed that the concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D correlated negatively with the serum concentrations of total cholesterol and LDL-c. There was no association between HDL-c, triglyceride concentrations and the variables studied (p>0.050). 25-hydroxyvitamin D was associated with the diagnosis of dyslipidemia (p=0,032). Discussion: Vitamin D was shown to be a protective factor for the development of dyslipidemia in the elderly studied and the insufficiency in serum level of vitamin D seemed to exert an influence on lipid metabolism, making the elderly even more vulnerable cardiovascular diseases.

INTRODUCTION: Among neuromuscular blockers (NMB), rocuronium is the most notably cited as a cause of anaphylactic reaction. Rocuronium-induced anaphylaxis is a serious and potentially fatal complication, requiring immediate and effective management. The advent of the specific antagonist, sugammadex, has widely spread its use because it reduces the incidence of residual neuromuscular blockade and is indicated in the protocol for the treatment and reversal of refractory anaphylaxis. This study reports an episode of anaphylaxis induced by rocuronium and successfully reversed after administration of sugammadex. CASE REPORT: A 6-year-old child, weighing 30 kg, scheduled for video-assisted thoracoscopy under general anesthesia presented with tachycardia, severe hypotension, and diffuse skin rash after induction of general anesthesia and administration of rocuronium.  All therapeutic measures were immediately taken for the treatment of a severe allergic reaction, however there was no clinical improvement, and the patient progressed to sinus bradycardia. At this point, cardiopulmonary resuscitation maneuvers were initiated, and adrenaline was administered, but without satisfactory clinical response. In this context, the possibility of the causative agent being rocuronium was raised. Sugammadex was administered 16mg/kg, and the patient immediately returned to sinus rhythm and later presented a favorable clinical evolution and no sequelae. DISCUSSION: Sugammadex is a molecule that encapsulates rocuronium and removes it from both plasma and neuromuscular junction, and then excretes it inertly in the urine. Some authors suggest that sugammadex removes rocuronium molecules from the circulation, whether free or IgE-bound. This mechanism is extremely important, especially in grade III and IV anaphylactic reactions, which can lead to death. In view of the scarcity of publications, this report showed the role of sugammadex in the reversal of rocuronium-induced anaphylaxis, refractory to conventional treatment.
Aspectos relacionais coordenador e professor: Ludicidade como abordagem na formação continuada

Playfulness has been a theme that has been strongly discussed in Brazil for 12 years, although the first records were found in the Greek and Roman peoples (fifth and sixth centuries B.C.), associated with the term game, and in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries A.D., with an emphasis on the child. Important studies address playfulness, but it is in Luckesi (1998, 2004, 2018) and Andrade (2013) that the understanding of playfulness rests to reflect the place of playfulness in the performance of the function and in the formation of the pedagogical co-ordinator, in facing the difficulties to develop his work. In the conception of these authors, playfulness is a state of mind that expresses a feeling of surrender, wholeness, full experience, a founding aspect in the relationships between teacher and coordinator. This study made it possible to understand that the ludic training for the coordinator, especially because it is a dialogical and dialectical training, is crucial to interconnect sensitivity and knowledge in the school environment.
A presença e o valor do silêncio em A Paga, de Miguel Torga
Authors: Martins Eliana Maria Filetti , Cortez Clarice Zamonaro
Published: July 2024

This article proposes to recognize the presence and value of silence in the short story À paga by the Portuguese writer and poet Miguel Torga (1907-1995), featured in the book Contos da Montanha, first published in 1941. Silence plays a fundamental role in literary discourse, as well as words, as the two are inseparable. Our objective is to analyze the manifestations of silence, based on a study of the elements of the narrative of the short story in question. It is in a quick way that this genre conveys a main idea, and we recognize that this aspect is of fundamental importance for us to understand how – through saying and not saying – this type of short narrative can propose a deep reflection on themes for which silence (the unsaid) is fundamental. To this end, it is necessary to have a foundation on the Lyric Novel, a review of elements of the narrative, a study on the concept of silence and a reflection on its value in relation to the production of meanings in the theoretical perspective of Eni Orlandi (2007), seeking to understand silence as a condition for a greater approximation to the thought and work of the writer.
