Islas fluviales en el bajo Ebro en época medieval (siglos XII y XIII)
Authors: Kirchner Helena , Virgili Antoni
Published: September 2021

La investigación llevada a cabo en los últimos diez años en el bajo Ebro ha permitido, a partir del análisis de la documentación y mediante recursos arqueológicos, estudiar los espacios agrarios de ribera vinculados a los asentamientos rurales andalusíes y a Madīnat Ṭurṭūša, así como las transformaciones producidas en estos espacios a raíz de la colonización feudal tras la conquista cristiana, en 1148. En la documentación escrita destacan las referencias a algeziras o insulae para referirse a unos espacios de ribera fluvial rodeados total o parcialmente por brazos del río, fácilmente inundables y sujetos a modificaciones frecuentes aunque lo bastante estables como para suscitar el interés para explotar sus recursos y por su posterior ocupación y colonización. En época andalusí, salvo excepciones, estos espacios no fueron objeto de cultivo permanente, sino de aprovechamiento de los recursos naturales que ofrecía la vegetación de ribera, en especial, pastos. Tras la conquista, los señores feudales impulsaron significativas transformaciones en los espacios agrarios ya existentes. Se promocionó el cultivo de los cereales y la viña, pero destacan especialmente los procesos de roturación de las áreas incultas. Entre estas se cuentan amplios sectores en la llanura deltaica, pero también algunos espacios de ribera, como las algeziras. Su puesta en cultivo se produjo décadas después de la conquista, ya a finales del siglo XII o inicios del XIII, a medida que se establecían nuevos colonos en la región y aumentaba la demanda de recursos.
Beekeeping in late medieval Europe: A survey of its ecological settings and social impacts
Authors: Fava Lluis Sales , Sapoznik Alexandra , Whelan Mark
Published: September 2021

In the middle ages bees held significant economic, social and cultural importance. Constant demand for wax was driven by Christian religious practice among many other uses, while honey provided the only widely accessible sweetener in an era before large-scale sugar imports. Consequently, beekeeping was a notable part of the rural economy, drawing on the participation of numerous groups across Europe, from peasants with only a few hives for small-scale production to specialized beekeepers producing for a thriving international trade. Analysis of a wide variety of documents from northern and southern Europe, shows the importance of beekeeping in the late medieval period, and the ways in which different environments and types of economic and social organization consequently gave rise to different forms of beekeeping. This paper demonstrates that beekeeping was not an isolated activity, but rather one which competed and conflicted with, and conflicted with, many other types of resource use from a variety of actors. As such, beekeeping provides a lens through which to consider human intervention in the natural environment, demonstrating the extent to which the medieval landscape was regulated, managed, mediated and anthropized.

Jelen cikkben arra vállalkozik a szerző, hogy a román közszolgálati (központi és a helyi közigazgatás) humánerőforrás-menedzselés modernizációjának tapasztalatait ismertesse. Modern értelemben közszolgálatról 1866 óta beszélhetünk Romániában. Ekkor lépett trónra a Hohenzollern-Sigmaningen királyi családból származó I. Károly, és kiáltotta ki az alkotmányos monarchiát (Constitutunea, 1866). Az idők folyamán több esetben is változott a román alkotmány (1923, 1948) és az ország közszolgálati rendszere ( Ghilezan, 2007). Az első királyi alkotmány által kijelölt központi közigazgatás és a megyerendszer keretei mind a mai napig fennmaradtak Romániában. Az európai egyesülés folyamata és Románia EU-csatlakozása egyértelműen erősítette az európai standardok alkalmazását az ország közszolgálatában.

Authors: Staller Kyle , Hinson Jimmy , Kerstens René , Spalding William , Lembo Anthony
Published: September 2021

INTRODUCTION:

This post hoc analysis evaluated the effect of prucalopride on abdominal bloating in participants with chronic idiopathic constipation (CIC) who had moderate to very severe bloating at baseline.

Methods:

Data from 6 phase 3/4 studies of prucalopride in participants with CIC were pooled. Abdominal bloating was assessed weekly using a 5-point scale (0–4).

Results:

The proportion of bloating responders (≥1-point improvement in abdominal bloating score at week 12) was higher in participants treated with prucalopride (62.1%) vs placebo (49.6%).

DISCUSSION:

The prucalopride arm had a higher proportion of bloating responders vs placebo in this study population.
Isolation, characterization and neutralizing activity of porcine epidemic diarrhea viruses from Vietnam
Authors: Do Van Tan , Truong Quang Lam , Dao Hoai Thu , Nguyen Thi Lan , Kim Jini , Hahn Tae-Wook
Published: September 2021

Porcine epidemic diarrhea (PED) is characterized by acute enteritis, watery diarrhea, weight loss, dehydration, and death with high mortality in neonatal piglets. In this study, 3 virus isolates collected in Vietnam between 2016 and 2017 were successfully propagated in Vero cells at high virus titers. Sequence analysis of the full-length spike (S) gene revealed that all 3 isolates belong to genogroup 2a, which is closely related to other prevalent Asian strains. Amino acid sequence comparisons revealed 98.19% to 99.13% homology with the Vietnam isolates circulating during 2013–2015, suggesting that field PED viruses (PEDVs) evolve continuously. Experiments in animals demonstrated that antisera from guinea pigs immunized with the vaccine strain resulted in higher levels (5 log2) of neutralizing antibody against the homologous strain, and showed a relatively lower level of neutralizing antibody against the field isolates. This finding would be helpful in choosing a PEDV strain for vaccine development.

Acinetobacter is a bacteria found in the environment and clinical specimens, causing nosocomial infection and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) threats. This study examined the prevalence, species, and AMR characteristics of Acinetobacter isolated from surgical practice and the laboratory dog husbandry room environments (n = 235) at Rajamangala University of Technology Tawan-ok veterinary hospital during 2018-2019. The prevalence of Acinetobacter in the laboratory dog husbandry room and veterinary belongings were 2.55% and 0.43%, respectively. Species determination was Acinetobacter hemolyticus (2.1%) and Acinetobacter baumannii (0.4%) from environments in the laboratory dog husbandry room, and Acinetobacter junii (0.4%) from the shoes used in the surgical practice room. AMR was observed in both study environments and the specimens sent to the Veterinary Diagnostic Center. These isolates had a high resistant percentage to amoxicillin-clavulanic acid (84.62%), sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim (61.54%), and cephalexin (53.85%) but were susceptible to imipenem. Compared to the isolates recovered from the clinical specimens, most isolates derived from environments exhibited multidrug resistance and shared correlated resistance patterns. These results highlight the need for sanitization in the dog husbandry room. Furthermore, the AMR results can be used as a preliminary baseline for studying AMR Acinetobacter contamination in animals and their environments.

Published: September 2021

A 1-year-old, castrated male mixed-breed dog presented with diffuse, purple lesions arranged in an irregular patchy pattern, with a slight elevation on the right hindlimb extending from the tarsus joint to the upper region of the thigh. Dermatological examinations and fungal and bacterial cultures revealed no infectious agents. The therapeutic response to antibiotics and antifungal agents was negative. A histopathology examination of the lesion revealed vascular proliferation with vasodilation and numerous varying-sized vessels. Mast-cell-dominated perivascular cuffing was also noted. The dog was diagnosed with cutaneous angiomatosis due to diffuse lesions and the histopathology findings of hemangioma.

Stigma Disabilitas di Mata Orang Tua Anak Difabel di Yogyakarta
Authors: Nisa Uswatun
Published: September 2021

Stigma is an inseparable part of social life. Stigma shows diversity in representing viewpoints, values, standards, and the power to make social categorizations. One of the causes of stigma is physical and non-physical differences such as those experienced by people with disabilities. Parents of children with disabilities also feel the impact of stigma related to disability as an associated group. The research uses a psycho-social approach with a descriptive-qualitative method to explore perspectives, experiences, responses, and de-stigmatization strategies. The research subjects are parents who have children with disabilities in Yogyakarta. The study found several forms and characteristics of stigma experienced by parents and various reactions and efforts of parents to fight stigmatization.[Stigma merupakan bagian tak terpisahkan dari kehidupan bermasyarakat. Stigma menunjukkan adanya diversitas dalam merepresentasikan sudut pandang, nilai, standar, dan kuasa untuk membuat kategorisasi sosial.

Comunicación no verbal: las voces del cuerpo detrás de los cristales
Authors: Buitrago Espitia Evelyn Gabriela
Published: September 2021

Este artículo es resultado de la investigación titulada “Comunicación no verbal y educación”. Su objetivo es describir y analizar dicha comunicación en las interacciones virtuales durante la crisis covid-19, tiempo en el que las interacciones escolares cambiaron radicalmente y en las que se anula casi totalmente la comunicación no verbal. Para el diseño metodológico se recurrió a un enfoque cualitativo hermenéutico-fenomenológico en el que priman la comprensión y la interpretación de situaciones emergentes, como lo es la comunicación a través de los cristales, que se ha dado en la educación durante la pandemia. El corpus se obtiene de grabaciones de clases en línea, de entrevistas semiestructuradas y cuestionarios aplicados a profesores y estudiantes universitarios. El análisis del corpus se hace con categorías de la comunicación no verbal como: kinésica, cronémica, proxémica, paralenguaje y factores ambientales. Los referentes teóricos articulan los aportes de la comunicación no verbal de diferentes autores con las estéticas prosaicas de Mandoki (2006). De igual forma, en el contexto de la comunicación no verbal en tiempos de pandemia, nos apoyamos en los aportes teóricos de la cibercultura y de las hipermediaciones con autores como Crystal (2002), Lévy (2007) y Scolari (2008). El análisis de los resultados evidencia que en este contexto se da poca relevancia a la comunicación no verbal en los procesos de enseñanza/aprendizaje. Así, esta investigación permite afirmar que es necesario recuperar las voces del cuerpo (schêmata) que se han perdido en estas interacciones, como una apuesta política necesaria e importante en prácticas futuras.
Invasive Fucus serratus (Fucaceae, Phaeophyceae) responds to climate change along the Atlantic Coast of Nova Scotia, Canada
Authors: Garbary David J. , Fass Megan P. , Vandermeulen Herb
Published: September 2021

The distribution and ecology of the invasive brown alga Fucus serratus along the 500 km Atlantic coast of Nova Scotia, Canada, has been poorly explored. We observed significant intertidal penetration at four sites in the southwestern part of the province, and then examined numerous sites along the Atlantic coast of Nova Scotia. Surveys of attached algae in intertidal and shallow subtidal zones and wrack show that F. serratus has become a dominant plant in the low to mid-intertidal zone and can be expected on headlands along the South Shore of Nova Scotia where it can occupy up to 40% of the intertidal zone with cover >75% and mean densities of up to 10 kg m−1. In this zone, F. serratus has replaced Chondrus crispus as the major canopy species, although C. crispus and Corallina officinalis remain primary understory species. At slightly higher elevations, F. serratus was common as an understory beneath Ascophyllum nodosum and Fucus vesiculosus. While geographic spread along the Atlantic coast might reflect the natural dispersal capacity of F. serratus, we hypothesize that the ecological extension into the intertidal zone may be facilitated by harvesting of A. nodosum and by climate change in an ocean-warming hotspot.

L. Ulitskaya’s The Big Green Tent and F.M. Dostoevsky’s Demons. L. Ulitskaya does not usually mention Dostoevsky’s name when she speaks of writers who have influenced her art. Nevertheless, Dostoevsky’s influence can be clearly seen in her works. The study examines how Ulitskaya’s novel The Big Green Tent relates to Dostoevsky’s Demons at different levels: the plot’s structure, metaphors, system of characters and their literary activity.
Истоки предания «Как Пушкин учился в школе». Замечания к московским легендам о Пушкине, записанным Евгением Барановым
Authors: КАЛАВСКИ ЖОФИЯ
Published: September 2021

The sources of the legend “How Pushkin studied in school”. Reflections on the Pushkin legends noted down by Evgeny Baranov in Moscow. In my study I analyze the Pushkin legends noted down by Russian ethnographer Evgeny Baranov in the 1920s in Moscow. My research primarily focuses on the myth “How Pushkin studied in school”, although I also partly discuss what sources the peasant-born speakers could have used when forming their Pushkin image in the myths “Pushkin and the tsar”, “Pushkin and Gogol”, “How Pushkin was taken out by his wife”, and “Bruce, Sukharev, and Pushkin”. I demonstrate how the legend “Как Пушкин учился в школе” (“How Pushkin studied in school”) has a primary source in the materials surviving from the first year of the Tsarskoye Selo lyceum, variants of which became perennial pieces in the popular anecdote collections of the end of the nineteenth century. Beyond the philological investigation it is especially interesting to follow the metamorphosis during which the literary anecdote loses its generic characteristics and expands into a “biographic” story on a central protagonist. The analysis of the Baranov myths draws attention to the power of the Pushkin monument in Moscow to create meaning and the influence of other legendary Moscow characters on the reception of the Pushkin character.
Шекспировские источники темы «потаённой вины» и греховного сознания в «Поэме без Героя» Анны Ахматовой
Authors: МИХАЙЛОВА ГАЛИНА ПАВЛОВНА
Published: September 2021

Shakespearean sources for the theme of “hidden guilt” and sinful conscience in Anna Akhmatova’s Poem Without a Hero. The article examines the semantic, narrative and figurative parallels between Akhmatova’s Poem Without a Hero and Shakespeare’s play Macbeth. Akhmatova’s particular interest in Shakespeare in general and Macbeth in particular is taken into account. It is suggested that certain situations and images in Macbeth could be the source of some semantic components of the theme of secret guilt and sinful consciousness, which is important for Akhmatova’s self-understanding and creative being. Among such Shakespearean semantic and formative elements, the story of the death of Macduff’s family and the complex of motifs associated with the crimes and torments of conscience of Lady Macbeth are highlighted. It is suggested that the first theme refers to the semantics of the painful theme of “generic guilt” for Akhmatova which is associated with the fate of her son. The semantic tension and emotional expressiveness associated with the image of Lady Macbeth is evident in some of the allusions, both incidental and perhaps planned by the author, which link the tragedy and the poem. Moreover, Lady Macbeth may occupy an important place in the complex system of authorial doubles and masks that are presented in Akhmatova’s poetry.

К определению художественного метода Достоевского и его гносеологической наполненности

Published: September 2021

Toward Defining Dostoevsky’s Poetic Method and Its Epistomological Contents. The article offers a new concept of Dostoevsky’s poetic method; the concept is based on the writer’s epistemology and philosophical and religious anthropology. The article problematizes the notion of polyphony as antithetic to Dostoevsky’s system of ideas. In formulating his anti-heroes’ ideas, Dostoevsky frequently alters his own ideas in such a way that they radically change their essence while preserving their outward appearance. This is what we call an apatetic novel. To find their way in the world of apatetic ideas, readers must assess them in the perspective of truth that, in Dostoevsky’s view, has been given to people in the image of Christ in the flesh and consists in loving one’s neighbor as oneself.

Application of The New Economic Criticism. Case of “The Raw Youth” by F. Dostoevsky. First of all Dostoevsky’s novel “The Raw Youth” attracts our attention with its abundance of themes and, as noted, big amount of research (in comparison with other works).It is interesting that in all studies and encyclopedias the main character of this novel, Arkady Dolgorukij, is said that his main idea is “to become a Rothschild.” The idea of the main character becomes a key component in understanding his actions and his main attribution. However, the idea, which is vaguely explained by the character himself at the very beginning of the work is lost not only in the further narration, but also in the generally accepted characterization of the protagonist.The article mainly analyzes the metaphorical idea of the main character of the novel “The Raw Youth” “to become a Rothschild”, and attempts to find out and show why in the history of literature the idea of the protagonist in Dostoevsky’s novel “to become a Rothschild” can be considered as a hypertextual element of entire Dostoevsky’s poetics.

Published: September 2021

Banff National Park (BNP) is Canada’s oldest national park and a very popular one, with both year-round residents and millions of annual visitors. In turn, this means there are several busy road and rail transportation routes throughout the park. These factors can have a number of negative effects on local wildlife. The wildlife crossing structures of the Trans-Canada Highway in BNP have become a key conservation tool to conserve biodiversity in the park and beyond. As the first large-scale operation of highway mitigation of its kind in North America, it is a perfect case for understanding the conservation value of highway overpasses and underpasses for a variety of wildlife species including both large and small mammals. It was determined from the research that there is a vast majority of information available for large mammals compared to small mammals. Small mammals used the crossing structures to avoid predators, while large mammals used the crossing structures to avoid humans. The design of the structure was extremely influential on its effectiveness with black bears and cougars preferring narrow bridges with cover, elk preferring wide, open bridges, and smaller mammals, such as weasels, snowshoe hares, and some mice preferring culverts with vegetation cover.

Bone Carving of the Kamianka Sich
Authors:   Research Fellow, the Department of Preservation of historical, archaelogical and natural monuments, the National Reserve «Khortytsia», Volkov Anatolii
Published: September 2021

The manufacture of different bone items as well as treatment of bone and horn used to be among the oldest types of crafts. For centuries, people have used bone because of its prevalence and easy processing. In the 16th—18th centuries, bone continued to be used as one of the materials, but it did not receive wide distribution among Cossack crafts. Though the well-known bone powder flasks decorated with complex and intricate carvings were in usage among Cossacks, the article deals with simpler and more common in everyday life things — such as knife handle bone plates, borers, a spindle whorl, and etc. Today we have the opportunity to explore this specific type of craft on the example of archaeological finds from one of the Zaporizhzhia Siches — the Kamianka Sich. Mass osteological material in many cases contains traces of deliberate processing or attempts to give the bone a certain shape, to obtain a product from bone or horn. Analyzing the finds of several archaeological seasons, one can deduce some common features of bone items, get an idea of spreading of this craft and its significance, and discover the everyday life of the Cossacks at the beginning of the 18th century. The article examines bone finds made from the beginning of the 1970-ies, and also contains their general characteristic and common features. A special attention is focused on bone products; the "portion" types of bones and the production waste left during manufacture of the bone items is briefly described. One of the main purpose of this article is to introduce into a scientific circulation a number of objects made of bone, on the same territory in a fairly short period of existence of the Kamianka Sich (1709—1711 and 1728—1734). Nowadays, unfortunately, we cannot derive a comparative analysis of the finds of bone production from other Siches or Cossack handicraft objects, but we can get an idea of the development of this type of craft using as examples the finds from the Kamianka Sich. Further archaeological research may reveal the presence of the bone carving workshop on this territory.

Improving Jatropha curcas L. photosynthesis-related parameters using poultry litter and its biochar
Authors: MASOCHA Boitshwarelo L. , DIKINYA Oagile , MOSEKI Baleseng
Published: September 2021

Poultry litter and biochar contribute to improved plant growth due to their high nutrient content. However, to the best of our knowledge, how incorporating poultry litter and its biochar in soil affects photosynthesis-related parameters of Jatropha curcas L. has not been reported. Therefore, a greenhouse pot experiment was conducted using a complete randomised design with three replicates per treatment to determine the effects of poultry litter, biochar pyrolysed at 350 °C and 750 °C at different application rates (0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3 gkg-1) on Jatropha curcas L. photosynthesis parameters.  The control plants recorded the lowest values of photosynthesis-related parameters compared to the treated plants except for water use efficiency. The study observed a significant (P < 0.05) increase in leaf surface area (1807 m2, PL), dark-adapted Fv/Fm ratio, carbon dioxide uptake, and transpiration rate for PL and BC350 with increased application rates, compared to BC750 treatments. BC350 treated plants exhibited higher values (0.79) of Light-adapted Fv’/Fm’. The quantum yield of PSII electron transport displayed an increase with an application rate of 3 gkg-1in PL (0.75) treated soils. Comparing organic amendments used, BC350 exhibited a significantly higher value of carbon dioxide uptake rate (2.67 μmol m-2 s-1) and transpiration rate (2.20 mmol m-2 s-1); however, WUE increased at an application rate of 3 gkg-1 in BC750 (3.8 µmol (CO2) mol-1(H2O)) treated plants. The study results indicate that poultry litter and biochar produced at a lower temperature significantly improved photosynthesis parameters than biochar produced at a higher temperature.
Physiological variation of irradiated red radish plants and their phylogenic relationship using SCoT and CDDP markers
Authors: ALY Amina A. , ELIWA Noha E. , BORIK Zeyad M. , SAFWAT Gehan
Published: September 2021

Greenhouse experiment is carried out to explore the outcome of γ-radiation on physiological and genetic variation in red radish (Raphanus sativus) for two generations. Gamma rays from 60Co were used to penetrate red radish seeds with different dose levels (0.0, 10, 20, 40 and 80 Gy). Plants generated from irradiated seeds and from self-pollination of these plants, called M1 and M2 generations, respectively. Some morphological and physiological traits were then determined, and the genetic diversity of both generations was studied using Start Codon Targeted (SCoT) and Conserved DNA-Derived Polymorphism (CDDP) molecular markers.  All studied morphological traits (number of leaves/plants, leave height, root diameter, and root weight) were steadily improved by raising irradiation dose rate, reaching a cumulative raise at the irradiation doe level 40 Gy and decreased at dose level 80 Gy. Photosynthetic pigments of red radish plants released a notable increase by increasing gamma rays dose level for chlorophyll (a), chlorophyll (b) and carotenoids for 40 Gy dose rate. Proline content was elevated proportionally to the irradiation dose level, with the greatest increase seen at dose level of 80 Gy. Moreover, phytochemical screening was detected for the both two generations. Fourteen SCoT primers generated a total number of banding patterns of 194 with average 13.86 and the primer SCoT-33 released the highest number banding patterns (21). The percentage mean of polymorphism for all the SCoT primers was 74.66% and was 66.49 and 63.74% for M1 and M2 respectively. Furthermore, fifteen CDDP primers generated a total number of banding patterns of 186 and the primer CDDP-5 relieved the highest number of banding patterns (20). The percentage mean of polymorphism for all the CDDP primers was 73.41% and was 64.38 and 65.91% for M1 and M2 respectively. It could be concluded that gamma irradiation exhibited an appropriate variation in red radish M1 and M2 which was detected by SCoT and CDDP molecular markers.

Asparagus officinalis L. is a crop associated with arid and dry environments of arid deserts; its tender product is considered a gourmet food for its exclusive consumption and its high prices. Among the main attributes of this vegetable are being a product low in calories, fat and cholesterol, with a high content of vitamin C, as well as rich in potassium and calcium phosphate. The indiscriminate use of synthetic fertilizers in agricultural crop production systems, as well as the increasing dependence, they cause deterioration of the physical and chemical properties of the soil, in addition have a variable impact on the composition and functions of the soil microbiota. Under indigenous area “Seris” in Sonora desert conditions (salinity and high °C), var. ‘Early California’ of asparagus was biofertilized with Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (Ba) as a halo-PGPB and chitosan (QUI) to evaluate nutritional value and yield-production. Results showed that Ba and QUI in the vegetative period increased the emergence rate (≥15%), nitrates in sap (≥10%), fresh and root weight and crown (≥25%); significant values in its subsequent production stage of shoots for human consumption (proximal values such as protein (≥33%), and carbohydrates (≥20%), in addition to K+ (≥9%) and Vit C (≥15%) compared with the control, were obtained. These results express the possibility of using Bacillus amyloliquefaciens as a halo-PGPB and chitosan as a biofertilizer of marine origin in asparagus under Sonora desert conditions.

Health care of deaf persons during coronavirus pandemics
Authors: Correia Luana Paula de Figueiredo , Ferreira Márcia de Assunção
Published: September 2021

ABSTRACT Objective: To reflect about the barriers experienced by the deaf population during the COVID-19 pandemic, the proposals to overcome communication barriers in health care and the role of public policies in effecting the social inclusion of deaf people. Methods: Reflection based on studies on health care for deaf people, the COVID-19 pandemic and public accessibility policies. Results: The global crisis of COVID-19 has deepened pre-existing inequalities in the world, in addition to highlighting the vulnerability of people with disabilities, including deaf. Government, institutional and social initiatives to mitigate difficulties in communicating to deaf people have been made, but they are still insufficient to guarantee protection for them in this pandemic and full inclusion in health care. Final considerations: Social inclusion, supported by law, and the linguistic accessibility of deaf people still need to generate broad and concrete actions so that deaf people can enjoy their rights as citizens.

ABSTRACT Objectives: to identify undergraduate nursing students' entrepreneurial tendency at a public university. Methods: cross-sectional study, with a quantitative approach, with 135 undergraduate nursing students from a public university in the interior of the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Data were collected using a socio-professional characterization form and a General measure of Enterprising Tendency test and analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results: among the five entrepreneurial tendencies, students presented results equal or above average in two dimensions: Drive and Determination (82.2%) and Need for Success (51.1%). The Creative tendency was the dimension with the highest percentage of participants below the average (68.9%). However, students in research or extension groups scored equal or above average in all five entrepreneurial tendencies. Conclusions: students showed low entrepreneurial tendencies, indicating the need for a broader approach to the subject in nursing education.

ABSTRACT Objectives: to analyze the effects of sexuality on frailty and quality of life in the elderly. Methods: a sectional study conducted with 662 elderly people between July and October 2020. Four self-administered instruments were used to collect bio-sociodemographic variables, sexuality, frailty and quality of life. Correlation analysis and structural equation modeling were performed. Results: among the dimensions that assess sexuality, sexual intercourse had a weak, positive effect on quality of life (SC: 0.134, 95%CI: 0.153 - 0.254, p = 0.027), while affective relationships had a strong, positive effect (SC: 0.556, 95%CI: 0.442 - 0.670, p < 0.001). Frailty was only significantly related to a weak to moderate negative effect with sexual intercourse (SC: -0.216, 95%CI: -0.385 - -0.047, p = 0.012). Conclusions: two dimensions of sexuality, Sexual intercourse and Affective relationships, were found to have an effect on the quality of life and frailty of the elderly people investigated.

ABSTRACT Objectives: to construct and validate a classification of nipple and areola complex lesions resulting from breastfeeding, according to content and appearance. Methods: this is a methodological study, developed in four stages: operational definition, instrument construction, content and appearance validation. The Delphi technique and a Likert-type scale were used to validate content and appearance, through the participation of ten and sixteen judges, respectively. For analysis, Content Validity Index and Kappa Coefficient were applied. Results: Content Validity Index obtained an overall value of 0.93 and, for appearance, 0.94. Kappa values ranged between 0.46 and 1. The high rates of agreement among judges demonstrated the quality of the proposed content validity. Conclusions: the Nipple and Areola Complex Lesions Classification Instrument developed obtained acceptable values of its indexes, proving to be valid in terms of content and appearance.
O conceito de natureza na filosofia de Ludwig Feuerbach
Authors: Chagas Eduardo Ferreira
Published: September 2021

Resumo: O presente artigo pretende destacar a tese de que a natureza, conforme Feuerbach, é um existente autônomo e independente e possui primazia ante o espírito. Para ele, a natureza material, que existe, em sua diferencialidade qualitativa, independente do pensar, é, diante do espírito, o original, o fundamento não deduzível, imediato, não criado de toda existência real, que existe e consiste por si mesmo. Feuerbach opõe a natureza ao espírito, pois ele a entende não como um puro outro, que só por meio do espírito foi posto como natureza, mas, como o primeiro, a realidade objetiva, material, a qual existe fora do entendimento e é dada ao homem por meio de seus sentidos como fundamento e essência de sua vida. Trata-se, portanto, primeiro daquela essência (luz, ar água, fogo, plantas, animais etc.), sem a qual o homem não pode nem ser pensado nem existir. A natureza é, para Feuerbach, a pluralidade de todos os objetos e essências que realmente são. Sob essa condição, é possível conceber a natureza como a garantia da exterioridade mesma, como que um existente fora de nós, que nada sabe de si e é em si e por si mesmo; por conseguinte, ela não deve ser vista como aquilo que ela não é, isto é, nem como divina, nem como humana. A natureza sempre existiu, quer dizer, ela existe por si e tem seu sentido apenas em si mesma; ela é ela mesma, ou seja, nenhuma essência mística, pois, por trás dela, não se esconde nenhum absoluto, nada humano, nada divino, transcendental ou ideal.
O revisionismo e os perigos da mentira deliberada na perspectiva de Hannah Arendt
Authors: Passos Fábio Abreu dos
Published: September 2021

Resumo: A produção de notícias falsas, que tem como finalidade a disseminação de informações inverossímeis, constitui-se componente tradicional no jogo político. Nesse sentido, a tentativa deliberada de construir mentiras acerca de assuntos públicos, deturpando a realidade, é levada a cabo por teóricos como Paul Rassinier e Marco Antônio Villa, cujas obras se inscrevem no interior do movimento revisionista. A proposta deste trabalho é formular, em termos políticos, o que se denomina revisionismo e relacioná-lo com os perigos da mentira deliberada, na perspectiva de Hannah Arendt. O revisionismo deve ser compreendido como movimento de fomento e disseminação de mentiras deliberadas, o qual tem o propósito de adulterar o mundo, negando, por exemplo, a existência de fatos históricos como Holocausto e Ditadura Civil-Militar Brasileira. Mostrar-se-á, neste artigo, que um dos antídotos capazes de mitigar os efeitos da mentira deliberada é a verdade factual, que, por ser construída pelo testemunho plural, tem uma natureza política. Ela assegura que o mundo não seja ameaçado em suas estruturas constitutivas, isto é, que as ações que nele ocorrem não sejam alteradas e as memórias dessas ações não sejam corrompidas.
O externalismo semiótico ativo de C. S. Peirce e a cantoria de viola como signo em ação
Authors: Atã Pedro , Queiroz João
Published: September 2021

RESUMO: O principal propósito deste trabalho é fornecer uma ontologia semiótica para redescrição do externalismo cognitivo ativo, desenvolvido recentemente pelo paradigma 4E (embodied, embedded, enactive, extended cognition). Nessa abordagem, sistemas cognitivos distribuídos (SCDs) são descritos como semiose, ou signos em ação. Explora-se a relação entre semiose e cognição, como concebida por C. S. Peirce, em associação com a noção de sistema cognitivo distribuído (SCD). Introduz-se a abordagem externalista peirciana, com ênfase na noção de distribuição temporal da semiose, e se descrevem SCDs, e seus elementos, como “ação dos signos”. Para desenvolver esse argumento, examina-se um exemplo de SCD - improvisação verbo-musical do repente, repentismo, ou cantoria de viola. Trata-se de um fenômeno de improvisação verbo-musical que tem a forma de um desafio em poesia oral versificada. Explicita-se esse fenômeno como a incorporação da estrutura formal de uma tarefa cognitiva e de um processo inferencial. Essa incorporação corresponde a uma semiotização das performances do repente como SCD. A tendência temporalmente distribuída do repente organiza o SCD como um sistema que realiza experimentos metassemióticos sobre a ação dos signos.
