Published: October 2024

A prescrição eletrônica é uma inovação tecnológica que visa aprimorar a qualidade da Assistência Farmacêutica. Permite que profissionais de saúde prescrevam medicamentos em um registro eletrônico, contendo campos e dados estruturados e interoperáveis, substituindo as tradicionais receitas em papel. Essa modalidade de prescrição traz diversos benefícios para a assistência farmacêutica, promovendo a maior segurança de pacientes, redução de fraudes, aprimoramento do fluxo de dados de saúde e da qualidade nos processos de prescrição e dispensação de medicamentos. Este estudo descreve o desenvolvimento do registro de prescrição eletrônica no SUS, por meio da Rede Nacional de Dados em Saúde (RNDS). O modelo informacional de prescrição eletrônica para a RNDS (RPM – Registro de Prescrição de Medicamentos) foi publicado, o desenvolvimento do respectivo modelo computacional e preparação da arquitetura da RNDS para permitir o recebimento das novas mensagens foi finalizado. Como resultado, mais de 4.800 registros já foram recebidos na RNDS e as atividades para apresentação desses dados nas plataformas Conecte SUS estão em andamento. A instituição da prescrição eletrônica na RNDS é mais um passo para aprimorar o protagonismo do cidadão, promover o ambiente de interoperabilidade e fornecimento de informações padronizadas, propiciando ferramentas de monitoramento farmacoterapêutico mais efetivas. A prescrição eletrônica é um instrumento de qualificação da Assistência Farmacêutica, proporcionando maior segurança, eficiência e controle no processo de prescrição e dispensação de medicamentos. Ao integrar a tecnologia aos cuidados de saúde, é possível melhorar a qualidade do atendimento, otimizar recursos e promover uma assistência mais segura e personalizada.

Evolutionary isolation of Canadian terrestrial vertebrate species
Authors: Kominek Emma , Cornies Olivia , McCurdy-Adams Hannah , Mooers Arne Ø.
Published: October 2024

Conservation prioritization has become increasingly important as a practical response to ongoing biodiversity loss and limited resources. One tool, evolutionary distinctiveness (ED) is based on a measure of evolutionary isolation and has merit for identifying taxa with few close relatives. Here we present the first ever national-level ED scores for any jurisdiction, applying the measures to all Canadian tetrapods. We updated and pruned global dated phylogenies of all terrestrial vertebrates (amphibians, squamates, turtles, mammals, and birds) down to native Canadian species and calculated Canadian ED scores and rankings for each and compared them to their global ED ranks. Canada’s terrestrial ectotherm vertebrates (amphibians and reptiles) include most of Canada’s most evolutionarily isolated species and many score and rank higher nationally than globally in their ED scores. These taxa are also the most imperilled in Canada and so species with populations assessed as at-risk by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC) represent, on average, more than expected national evolutionary history. Interestingly, several exotic species also have very high national ED scores. To the extent that evolutionary isolation captures aspects of local and national biodiversity worth preserving, our lists may provide useful input to conservation agencies engaging in conservation prioritization exercises.
Aktywność zawodowa kobiet wiejskich – perspektywa unijnej polityki równości szans
Authors: Rykowska Joanna , Sawicka Janina
Published: October 2024

W artykule ukazano sytuację kobiet, w tym na obszarach wiejskich na krajowym oraz europejskim rynku pracy w zakresie aktywności ekonomicznej, bezrobocia, zróżnicowania dochodów. Przedstawiono przyczyny niższej aktywności zawodowej i zatrudnienia kobiet. Na wstępie zdefiniowano podstawowe pojęcia ułatwiające rozumienie polityki równości szans i tematyki gender. Scharakteryzowano kierunki zmian w sytuacji kobiet i mężczyzn na rynku pracy i w życiu społecznym oraz omówiono przejawy dyskryminacji. Przedstawione wyniki badań pokazują słabszą pozycję kobiet. Zarówno w mieście jak na wsi kobiety są lepiej formalnie wykształcone, mimo tego niższa jest ich aktywność zawodowa, wyższa stopa bezrobocia oraz otrzymują niższe wynagrodzenie za tę samą pracę. Występuje duże zróżnicowanie pod tym względem między miastem i wsią. Także w krajach Unii Europejskiej występują znaczne różnice, np. między krajami skandynawskimi a krajami śródziemnomorskimi oraz państwami Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej.

Published: October 2024

Głównym celem przeprowadzonych badań była próba oceny działań podejmowanych przez władze lokalne zmierzających do pozyskiwania inwestorów zagranicznych. Wykorzystując metodę ankietową przeprowadzono badania wśród przedstawicieli władz lokalnych w 76 gminach województw: wielkopolskiego, pomorskiego i warmińsko-mazurskiego. Wyniki przeprowadzonych badań wykazały, że połowa badanych władz samorządów lokalnych podejmowała zróżnicowane działania mające na celu pozyskanie inwestycji zagranicznych m.in. przez zmianę planu zagospodarowania (24%), czy uzbrojenie terenu (17%). Władze samorządów lokalnych prezentowały w tym celu także swoje oferty inwestycyjne wykorzystując strony internetowe (32%), uczestnicząc z ofertą na imprezach promocyjnych, prezentacjach i targach (27%). Aktywna polityka władz lokalnych w zakresie pozyskiwania inwestorów przyczynia się do lokowania przedsięwzięć gospodarczych na terenie określonych gmin, które są w stanie zapewnić funkcjonującym i potencjalnym przedsiębiorcom konkurencyjne warunki gospodarowania.
Czy polskich rolników trzeba traktować jak Kargula z Pawlakiem? Zmiany wśród polskich rolników w latach 2003–2013 na podstawie analiz socjologii wizualnej
Authors: Niski Magdalena , Nowacki Sebastian , Wódkowski Arkadiusz
Published: October 2024

Celem opracowania jest przedstawienie zmian, które zaszły w przeciągu ostatnich 10 lat na polskiej wsi, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem właścicieli wielkotowarowych gospodarstwach rolnych. Dotyczą one nie tylko sposobu organizacji i zarządzania gospodarstwem ale całej sfery kulturowej: hierarchii wartości, stylu życia, organizacji przestrzeni, sposobu spędzania wolnego czasu, myślenia o sobie etc. Praca pokazuje, że funkcjonujący bardzo długo w polskich miastach stereotyp rolnika, którego wcieleniem są Kargul i Pawlak, przestaje być aktualny. Producenci kierujący swoją komunikację marketingową do rolników powinni jak najszybciej zweryfikować ją pod tym kątem. Artykuł prezentuje wyniki badania polskiej wsi, metodę badania (socjologia wizualna, która przynosi nie tylko ilustracje do deklaracji, ale często – pozwala wyjść poza nie), a także ciekawe przykłady wykorzystania wyników tych badań w biznesie. W ramach projektu uzyskano 2,5 tysiąca zdjęć od rolników terenu całej Polski+ wykonano 20 wywiadów pogłębionych.

Authors: Gonet Danuta , Kalinowski Julian
Published: October 2024

W pracy, na podstawie danych pochodzących z 200 gospodarstw indywidualnych zlokalizowanych na terenie województwa dolnośląskiego, przedstawiono wpływ informacji i źródeł ich pochodzenia na innowacyjność rolników w procesie zarządzania gospodarstwem rolnym. Źródłem danych był kwestionariusz wywiadu, przeprowadzony z rolnikami w 2009 roku. W badaniach wykorzystano metodę opisową i porównawczą. Stwierdzono, że rolnicy ciągle jeszcze nie w pełni zdają sobie sprawę ze znaczenia nowoczesnych technologii informatycznych - Internetu w pozyskiwaniu informacji, wykorzystując tradycyjne źródła tj. służby doradcze i media. Wykazano, że najważniejszymi nośnikami innowacji dla rolników są informacje rynkowe, technologiczne, meteorologiczne i ekonomiczne. Na ich podstawie w zarządzaniu gospodarstwem rolnicy implementują w swoich gospodarstwach przede wszystkim innowacje technologiczne, których udział w strukturze przyjętych innowacji wynosił ponad 60%.

Published: October 2024

Abstract

Diabetic keratopathy (DK) is a common chronic metabolic disorder that causes ocular surface complications. Among various therapeutic approaches, local delivery of nerve growth factor (NGF) remains the most effective treatment for DK. However, achieving a sustained therapeutic effect with NGF and the frequent drug delivery burden remain challenging during clinical practice. Here, we developed a novel adeno-associated virus (AAV)-based NGF delivery system that achieved one-year-long-lasting effects by a single injection. We refined the corneal stromal injection technique, resulting in reduced corneal edema and improved AAV distribution homogeneity. AAV serotype AAV.rh10 exhibited high tropism and specificity to corneal nerves. A dose of 2×109 vector genomes (vg) was determined to achieve efficient Ngf gene expression without inducing corneal immune responses. Moreover, NGF protein was highly expressed in trigeminal ganglion (TG) through a retrograde transport mechanism, indicating the capacity for repairing corneal nerve damage both at the root and corneal nerve endings. In a mouse DK model, a single injection of AAV-Ngf into the corneal stroma led to marked corneal nerve regeneration for over 5 months. Together, we provide a novel therapeutic paradigm for long-term effective treatment of DK and this therapeutic approach is superior to current DK therapies.

Highlights of our study:

· We developed a novel and minimally invasive intrastromal injection technique and identified AAV.rh10 as the optimal serotype for efficient corneal nerve transduction.

· AAV.rh10 can transfect both the corneal subepithelial nerve endings and retrograde transport to the ophthalmic branch of the trigeminal ganglion.

· AAV.rh10-Ngf outperforms the commercial rhNGF eye drop in terms of the extended duration of the protective effects on corneal nerve regeneration.

· A single injection of AAV.rh10-Ngf maintained effectiveness throughout the 5-month observation period in a diabetic keratopathy mouse model.

Estudo sobre os nutricionistas do Programa Nacional de Alimentação Escolar no estado do Ceará. Teve como objetivo caracterizá-los como profissionais atuantes no programa, considerando a adequação de suas práticas aos dispositivos legais dessa política, às predisposições adquiridas na formação profissional inicial e continuada. Buscou-se também identificar as práticas de educação alimentar e nutricional desenvolvidas por esses profissionais no âmbito da sua atuação no programa. Utilizou-se o questionário como instrumento de coleta de dados, respondido por 62 nutricionistas que atuam nas oito macrorregiões de planejamento do estado do Ceará. Os resultados enfatizam: a ausência de nutricionistas do quadro técnico em todo o estado; as longas distâncias de deslocamento entre os domicílios e os locais de trabalho; e os baixos salários, desencadeando insatisfação profissional. Mesmo frente à exiguidade de carga horária no Programa Nacional de Alimentação Escolar e as inúmeras questões burocráticas inerentes à função, os nutricionistas têm somado esforços juntamente à outros profissionais, sobretudo, os que compõem a comunidade escolar, para desenvolver ações de educação alimentar e nutricional.
Dynamics of organisational attractiveness and perceived attributes: Evidence from Turkish construction sector
Authors: Pehlivanli Edib Ali
Published: October 2024

This study explores the relationship between organisational attractiveness and perceived organisational attributes, focusing on how job seekers’ urgency and long-term orientation (LTO) affect their perceptions, specifically within the construction sector. Using data from 270 participants in Central Anatolia’s employment agencies, the research employs analysis of variance (ANOVA) and regression analyses to understand how these motivational states impact views of potential employers. Findings indicate that organisational attractiveness significantly influences perceived organisational attributes, consistent with theories positioning it as crucial in employment decisions. A notable moderation effect emerges with job search urgency: while urgency heightens perceptions of organisational attractiveness and attributes, it weakens the impact of organisational attractiveness on perceived attributes when urgency is high. This suggests that urgent job seekers prioritise immediate benefits like job availability over long-term qualities. Conversely, LTO does not significantly moderate the relationship, implying that immediate concerns overshadow potential long-term engagement for job seekers. These insights suggest tailored recruitment strategies: employers aiming to attract urgent job seekers should highlight immediate benefits and support, while those targeting non-urgent seekers should emphasise stability and long-term career opportunities. This study enhances the understanding of employment dynamics, emphasising the need for nuanced recruitment approaches that consider job seekers’ varying priorities and urgencies. It contributes to human resource management discourse by showing how urgency and orientation influence employment preferences and decisions, guiding more effective recruitment practices. These findings have practical implications for the construction industry, suggesting that addressing job seekers’ immediate and long-term needs can enhance recruitment effectiveness in a sector often perceived as less attractive due to challenging work conditions.

Published: October 2024

Background: Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a complex connective tissue disease characterized by microangiopathy, immune dysregulation, and fibrosis. Early detection of microvascular abnormalities using nailfold videocapillaroscopy (NVC) is crucial in assessing disease progression and associated disease’s involvement such as interstitial lung disease (ILD) and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).

Objective: This study aims to explore the relationships correlation between NVC patterns, clinical manifestations, and systemic complications in SSc.

Methods: We analyzed the data of 63 patients, predominantly female (95%), with a mean age of 49 years and an average disease duration of 42 months. Patients were categorized into early, active, and late patterns based on NVC findings. Clinical features, including digital ulcers (DU), ILD, and PAH, were assessed. Pearson correlation analyses were performed to evaluate the relationships between capillary loss, neoangiogenesis, ILD, and PAH.

Results: The early pattern group (mean mRSS 2.36) exhibited minimal microvascular damage and systemic involvement, with no DUs. In the active pattern group (mean mRSS 10.40), 34.38% had diffuse cutaneous SSc (dcSSc), with 15.63% presenting DUs, 65.63% ILD, and 37.5% PAH. The late pattern group (mean mRSS 18.00) showed the most severe disease, with 80% having DUs, 70% dcSSc, 90% ILD, and 70% PAH. Pearson correlation analyses revealed strong correlations between capillary loss and ILD (r = 0.7255) and PAH (r = 0.6369). A moderate correlation was found between neoangiogenesis and PAH (r = 0.5592).

Conclusion: The study demonstrates that progressive microvascular damage in SSc, as visualized by NVC, correlates strongly with the severity of systemic complications. Early detection of capillary loss and neoangiogenesis using NVC is critical for timely interventions, which could improve patient outcomes by mitigating the progression of ILD and PAH.

Industrias, empresarios y jerarquías administrativas. Cali, segunda mitad del siglo XX, primeras décadas del siglo XXI
Authors: Ordóñez Burbano Luis Aurelio
Published: October 2024

EI presente libro versa sobre el desarrollo de siete empresas caleñas y resalta el papel de los empresarios y las jerarquías administrativas durante el período comprendido entre la segunda mitad del siglo XX y las primeras décadas del siglo XXI. En buena parte es la continuación del estudio realizado sobre la gestión de un grupo de empresarios pioneros en Cali durante el período 1915-1945, quienes aprovecharon las oportunidades surgidas por la conformación de las redes mercantiles, la gestación del mercado interno y las políticas proteccionistas del Estado para crear industrias manufactureras, dando muestras de una nueva mentalidad de ruptura con los atavismos de corte premoderno prevalecientes en Cali, la región y el país. Después de exponer algunas consideraciones de orden teórico y conceptual, que orientan el trabajo histórico, se toma como referencia, a partir de la segunda posguerra (1945), la iniciación de una segunda fase de industrialización caracterizada por la llegada de la inversión extranjera a la industria manufacturera, prioritariamente al eje metropolitano Cali-Yumbo; la creación de nuevas empresas por parte del Estado, como es el caso de Ecopetrol, y la producción de bienes intermedios. En este contexto continúa el desenvolvimiento de algunas de las empresas fundadas en Cali a principios del siglo XX, en proceso de modernización e internacionalización, y se crean algunas nuevas, como Fanalca, Tecnoquímicas y Coomeva. En general, se describe el desenvolvimiento de las empresas que continúan a lo largo del tiempo, en el marco de las políticas económicas del Estado, en particular del proteccionismo, vigente hasta comienzo de la década de 1990, y del proceso de terciarización y desindustrialización en las décadas de 1970 y 1980, que se prolonga hasta las primeras décadas del siglo XXI.

Including Information-Physical Quantit ies of Personality Traits into the International System of Units (SI)
Authors: V.A. Minkin
Published: October 2024

Metrology approach to the personality traits is proposed, similar to the measurement of physical quantities of the International System of Units (SI). The analysis was made of open database of 500 subjects test including psychophysiological responses (PPR) to 48 multifactorial stimuli tied to multiple intelligences and personality vices consistently presented by Blitz Judgment program. Various equations for calculating of the current psychophysiological state (PPS) and PPR according to microvibration data of a human head, measured by vibraimage technology, are considered. Mathematical criteria are proposed for assessing the correctness of PPS and PPR calculating based on the closeness of PPR distribution to the normal distribution and the maximum correlation between PPR for stimuli, that are tied to multiple intelligences and personality vices. Based on the results of PPR analysis, it is proposed to include into the International System of Units (SI) new quantities and units — the bit (information) and the vibra (PPR) used to measure personality traits. Definitions are given for new units of personality traits measurement, based on the combination of the principles of psychology, cybernetics and physics within the framework of single metrological approach to a person as biological, cybernetics and physical object.

The statistics of psychophysiological responses (PPR) of 1002 subjects tested by Blitz Judgment program based on presentation of 48 short 5-second multifactor stimuli having semantic link to multiple intelligences (MI) and personality vices (PV) were studied. It has been established that the correlation between the mean PPR for MI and PV stimuli increases logarithmic to the value (r = 0.795) with the maximum number of averaged PPR. The correlation between PPR during sequential presentation of stimuli as the time function between presented stimuli is analyzed and recommendations were realized to reduce the mutual influence of stimuli (Kuleshov effect) on the resulting psychophysiological profile. Scatter diagrams of the difference between relevant and irrelevant PPR for MI and PV stimuli are presented. Patterns and confidence intervals have been established for close to normal distributions of three integral psychophysiological indicators: the Activation of nervous system (A), the emotional Balance (B) and the Conscious sincerity (C), used as indicators of norms and deviations for personality traits. Equations are given for calculating integral psychophysiological indicators using vibraimage technology and justification for their use in assessing deviant behavior was proposed.

Deep Learning Assisted Proton Pure Shift NMR Spectroscopy
Authors: Kakita Veera Mohana Rao , Hansen D. Flemming
Published: October 2024

Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) plays a key role for the analysis of a plethora of molecules, including natural products and drug-like organic molecules. For such cases 1H NMR spectra have proven imperative because of their high sensitivity, however, these spectra are complicated by complex multiplet patterns that, although important for the analysis, lead to substantial overlap. Here we show a deep-learning approach, which transforms spin-echo modulated 1H NMR spectra into highly sensitive and high-resolution singlet NMR spectra, that is, virtual homonuclear decoupled pure shift spectra. The approach was evaluated on experimental NMR spectra of complex organic compounds, where it outperforms current methods. The method also predicts uncertainties of the transformation and therefore allows for quantifications. We believe that our approach will provide significant advantages when characterizing low sensitivity samples, where no signals are observed in traditional pure-shift spectra and strong overlaps are hampering analysis from conventional spectra.
Tailoring Chloride Solid Electrolytes for Reversible Redox

Published: October 2024

Solid-state electrolytes enable next-generation batteries that can theoretically deliver higher energy densities while improving device safety. However, when fabricating cathodes for all-solid-state batteries, solid-state electrolytes must be combined with the active materials in high weight fractions in order to achieve sufficient ionic percolation within the cathode composite. This requirement drastically hinders the practicality of solid-state batteries as the solid-state electrolyte is conventionally designed to be electrochemically inactive and is effectively electrochemical ‘deadweight’, lowering both the gravimetric and volumetric energy density of the cell. In this work, a well-known solid-state electrolyte, Na2ZrCl6, is modified by aliovalent substitution of inactive Zr4+ cations with redox-active M5+ (M = Nb or Ta) cations to create a series of Na2–xMxZr1–xCl6 solid-solutions that possess both high ionic conductivities and active sites for Na+ storage. The Na+ intercalation mechanisms of these solid-solution materials, in addition to the NaMCl6 end-member materials, are elucidated in this work. It was discovered that both the niobium- and tantalum-containing chlorides exhibit rather high electrochemical potentials (2.2–2.8 V vs. Na9Sn4), making them ideal catholytes to pair with commonly used oxide cathode materials like NaCrO2. This synergistic pairing leads to a cathode composite with an 83–102% increase in energy density and 39–81% improvement in areal discharge capacity compared to a redox-innocent solid electrolyte. This approach highlights the benefits of designing and employing redox-active solid-state electrolytes that can reversibly intercalate charge-carrying cations, opening up a broad new avenue for solid-state electrolyte discovery and solid-state battery design.

This paper presents an experimental investigation into the mechanical properties and wear behavior of aluminum alloy AL2024 T3 reinforced with titanium diboride (TiB2) and molybdenum disulfide (MoS2). The composites were fabricated using the stir casting method, and various proportions of TiB2 and MoS2 were incorporated to evaluate their effects on wear resistance and mechanical properties. The wear tests were conducted under different loading conditions. The results indicate that the incorporation of TiB2 and MoS2 significantly enhances the wear resistance and mechanical properties of AL2024 T3 composites. In this research, an attempt has been made to study the hardness, tensile strength, compressive strength, tribological beahvior, influence of wear test parameters and corrosion resistance of Al2024 T3 hybrid composites which are reinforced with hard reinforcement TiB2 and soft reinforcement MoS2 to form the composites. The Al2024 T3 hybrid composites are fabricated with the help of powder metallurgy technique. Al2024 T3 acted as a matrix material which surrounds the Titanium Diboride and Molybdenum Disulfide after consolidation in powder metallurgy technique. Titanium Diboride acted as a hard reinforcement to enhance the mechanical properties, wear resistance and corrosion resistance of the composites.

The lexicographic portraiture method can help in implementing a comprehensive project of a functional-semantic description of the modal verbs system in Scots. The integrity principle of the lexicographic description of a word can be successfully implemented on Scottish material due to a wide “line” of dictionaries of Scots, despite the total lack of its codified standard variety. The historical and etymological constituent of the lexicographic portrait of words, including modal verbs, is of independent significance. In this regard, it seems possible and necessary to describe this group of verbs in the light of the integral principle precisely by considering their origin and family relationships according to the data of the corresponding dictionaries. The article characterizes, on the basis of lexicographical sources, the general picture of the modal verb “can” origin and historical development in the Scottish language. Based on the material of historical, etymological and dialectological dictionaries, we obtained a general picture of the verb “can” existence in Scots during the period from the 14th to the 17th centuries. The most reliable and complete historical information about the lexeme “can” is provided by the DOST dictionary, based on material from the Scots language corpora. The use of “can” as a modal verb, according to this dictionary, is already observed in the text of the poem “Bruce” (second half of the 14th century). According to the data of the examined dictionaries, it is also possible to add to the lexicographic portrait of the verb “can” the fact that in Scots, like in English, the semantics “to be able to” and the functions of the modal verb itself began to predominate, which is not a differential, but an integral feature of both languages.
Implications of Ar-Radha'ah in Determining the Mahram of Adopted Children: A Case Study in the Syariah Court of Brunei Darussalam

The adoption model in society in Brunei Darussalam is adoption that follows legal procedures and adoption based on mutual agreement or without going through legal procedures. This study discusses the implications of providing breast milk to adopted children and the importance of testimony (syahadat) in proving the implementation of ar-radha'ah in the Sharia Court of Brunei Darussalam. The research approach uses qualitative. The primary data source is the officers at the Sharia Court. Data collection techniques use document studies and interviews. The results indicate that Islamic law regulates adopted children who do not have a mahram relationship with their adoptive parents, even though they have been raised since childhood. So, when the child is older, they must maintain boundaries such as aurat with their adoptive family. However, if the child is breastfed by their adoptive mother through Breast Milk can change the status of an adopted child who is not a mahram to a mahram. When a woman breastfeeds her adopted child and fulfills the ar-radha'ah requirements stipulated in Islamic law, the child will become a mahram child for her and her family. Testimony to prove the existence of ar-radha'ah between the adoptive mother and the adopted child is important because it will prove that the adoptive mother can be declared fit by the judge as an adoptive parent. The Syariah Court in Brunei Darussalam refers to the Syafi'i school of thought as the main reference based on the 1959 Constitution of Brunei Darussalam.
