Published: September 2020

Descreve-se um caso de eletrocussão em um equino no Sertão da Paraíba, Nordeste do Brasil. Foi solicitado um médico veterinário para a avaliação anatomopatológica do cadáver de um equino vítima de provável choque elétrico na zona rural do município de Olho D'Água. O cadáver foi encontrado em decúbito lateral esquerdo sobre o fio de alta tensão rompido, em uma área alagadiça. Constataram-se alguns anfíbios mortos também em contato com o fio. Na necropsia, observaram-se pulmões avermelhados e não colapsados, com hemorragias distribuídas aleatoriamente por todos os lobos. O coração apresentava-se mais flácido, com petequias na superfície epicárdica e miocárdio. Portanto, baseado em achados epidemiológicos e anatomopatológicos, o óbito do equino deu-se por eletrocussão, uma importante causa de morte súbita em animais de produção.

A rotulagem de alimentos é uma ferramenta de grande importância e necessidade de um consumo correto de alimentos, no qual estão disponíveis fatos nutricionais, ingredientes, lotes, origem do produto e outras informações, que são de grande importância no momento da compra. Portanto, este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a conformidade da rotulagem de biscoitos cremosos vendidos em Aparecida - PB, em relação aos padrões estabelecidos pela ANVISA. Para verificar a conformidade, 5 tipos de crackers de diferentes marcas foram analisados usando o método checklist. As marcas de crackers foram identificadas confidencialmente por números consecutivos de 1 a 5, sendo classificadas em relação às informações estabelecidas em “contêm” (CT) e “não contêm” (NCT). Considerando os resultados obtidos, verificou-se que 80% das marcas apresentavam a maioria das informações nutricionais obrigatórias, exceto o parâmetro de ferro que não foi encontrado. No entanto, 20% (1 marca) informaram todos os requisitos estabelecidos. Para informações obrigatórias, 80% estavam dentro dos padrões exigidos, enquanto 20% (1 marca) não tinham conhecimento sobre o lote do produto. Portanto, são necessárias maiores inspeções para controlar e avaliar essas informações contidas nos rótulos e, consequentemente, garantir uma boa qualidade de vida para os consumidores.

Published: September 2020

The experiment is devoted to the study of the antioxidant properties of neuropeptides from melanocortins ACTH(4-7)-Pro-Gly-Pro (Semax) and ACTH(6-9)-ProGly-Pro under conditions of experimental depression. The study was carried out on white outbred male rats. In the process of modeling experimental depression (social stress) inter-male confrontations were observed as a result of which groups of animals with aggressive and submissive behaviors were formed. The free radical oxidation processes were assessed by determining the activity of catalase, the initial content of malondialdehyde (MDA), the rate of spontaneous and ascorbate-dependent lipid peroxidation (LPO) in the hypothalamic and prefrontal regions of the brain by spectrophotometric method. It was found that under the influence of melanocortins, there is a pronounced suppression of the processes of free radical oxidation in the hypothalamic and prefrontal regions of the brain, which arose against the background of a stressful load which is manifested by a decrease in the indicators of the oxidative process.

Published: September 2020

As a matter of fact, the cooperative learning method is considered one of the most effective student-centered learning methods used in teaching English language classes. It is an updated and effective pedagogic method that should be incorporated in classrooms. The previously reviewed studies showed that group work is better than individual work since student-centered learning methods may improve students’ knowledge of the language because of their effective cooperative engagement. This paper aims at investigating students' perceptions and attitudes towards the learning of global issues vocabulary using cooperative learning methods. The study employed a survey method research design where the quantitative data collection method was conducted. 25 participants are subjected to the intervention phase for seven weeks (40 hours) at MALI institute in Taiz, Yemen. Then a well-prepared questionnaire was conducted on the participants within a period of two days, immediately after the intervention phase. The descriptive statistic SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) version 25.0 was used to analyze data. Percentages were used for the questionnaire. The results from the questionnaire indicated that cooperative learning techniques had positive effects on students’ writing in classrooms. The participants gained confidence and their language skills were improved. Social skills like leadership, decision-making, trust-building, communication, and conflict-management skills were also developed. The study concludes that cooperative learning contributes to cognitive growth, increased autonomy, and productivity. The cooperative learning method should be integrated into English language classrooms to improve the growth and productive knowledge of students.

Authors: Almeida Bruno Gomes de
Published: September 2020

A tentativa de parte da produção artística contemporânea de promover diferentes tipos de agenciamentos coletivos pode ser pensada como indício de um desejo genuíno de estar junto. Dessa forma, o presente texto, como parte de um estudo mais amplo acerca das formas de estar junto da arte contemporânea, debruça-se sobre uma forma específica, evidenciada em vários trabalhos artísticos. O estar junto do “ataque”. O propósito é de aprofundar o olhar a respeito dessa estratégia relacional, identificando toda a potência que embasa trabalhos que lançam mão do choque e do enfrentamento enquanto verdadeiros dispositivos instauradores de formas de estar junto. Como exemplos dessa tendência, foram analisados trabalhos específicos de Marina Abramovic, Grupo 3nós3 e Grupo de Arte Callejero.

Published: September 2020

Este texto apresenta reflexões sobre o processo colaborativo de criação da performance coletiva Contra X Tempo. O trabalho consistia de sete ações performáticas criadas pelos artistas, que eram executadas concomitantemente por cada um dos integrantes em um mesmo espaço. Criou-se uma espécie de circuito, no qual cada artista realizava uma ação por um determinado tempo e a seguir passava a realizar outra ação proposta pelo colega, em um processo de compartilhamento. O trabalho lidou com a qualidade central da ação política -  alteridade – o estado que se constitui através de relações de diferença ou a capacidade de colocar-se no lugar do outro e partilhar o espaço comum.

El artículo presenta un enfoque histórico sobre el movimiento de los laboratorios de hackers, los Hacklabs, una importante escena activista, cultural y artística en España a principios de los años 2000. Especifica los principios estructurales de esos ambientes construidos principalmente por la producción colaborativa, la gestión autónoma, la reutilización de tecnologías, las prácticas artísticas y el software libre. Además de la contextualización histórica presenta paradigmas del Postdigital que conllevan un ambiente propicio para el surgimiento de nuevas formas de organizarse, de actuar política y artísticamente ante las contradicciones del determinismo tecnológico. A través de ejemplos actuales – los centros sociales La Tabacalera y La Ingobernable de Madrid– concluye que es importante y necesario tener espacios no institucionales, libres y abiertos a la comunidad que continúan practicando los métodos de resiliencia tecnológica y social independientes.

Published: September 2020

This paper takes a look at how we have developed devices to create and transmit meaning. It looks at how these devices have been designed and used to present a view of the world to the viewer. It also looks at what the tendencies within the functioning of media devices are and how that changes the way we perceive information and create world views. Furthermore, it asks how the nature of these devices determine how we communicate through them and what are the tensions they create. Lastly, we ask what this means for present and future use of such technology in an experiential and informative environment.

O artigo reflete acerca dos eventos históricos, estéticos e políticos em torno do espetáculo-manifesto I Feira Paulista de Opinião promovida pelo Teatro de Arena de São Paulo em junho de 1968, em parceria com diversos artistas da cena paulistana. Trata-se de uma das inúmeras tentativas de compreensão dos rumos da classe e da produção teatral brasileiras após a deflagração da ditadura civil-militar brasileira (1964 – 1985). Nesse contexto, o artigo aventa o influente papel tanto do encenador e formulador ideológico diretor da Feira, Augusto Boal, quanto da imprensa da época, na figura do jornal O Estado de São Paulo e o seu controverso papel no suporte ao teatro paulistano dos anos de 1960.
INCREASING RADIATION RESISTANCE OF MEMORY DEVICES BASED ON AMORPHOUS SEMICONDUCTORS
Authors: Kychak Vasyl , Slobodian Ivan , Vovk Victor
Published: September 2020

A memory cell structure is proposed that uses a Schottky barrier thin film transistor based on an amorphous semiconductor as a junction element, and a chalcogenide glassy semiconductor film as a switching element. A physical storage cell model has been developed. The dependence of the transistor and memory cell parameters on the dose of neutron flux and γ - quanta was investigated. It is shown that when the dose of neutron irradiation is changed, the steepness of the drain-gate characteristic (DGC) decreases by 10% at a dose of the order of 1015 n/s, at the same time, the transfer coefficient of the bipolar n-p-n transistor decreases by 20% already at doses of 1013 n/s, indicating a significant increase in the radiation resistance of the proposed memory cell. In the case of irradiation with γ - quanta in the range up to 2.6 MRad, the steepness of the DGC of the proposed structure changes by only 10%. When used as an isolation element, a field-effect transistor with an insulated gate, the slope of the DGC is reduced by 50%. It is shown that the current of recording information of the proposed structure when changing the dose of γ - quantum flux to 2.6 MRad changes by about 10%, at the same time, in the case of using a field-effect transistor with an isolated cover, the information recording current changes by 50%. The study of the dependence of the gate current on the dose of γ – quanta is showed. When the radiation dose changes from 0 to 2.6 MRad, the gate current changes only by 10%, which indicates the high resistance of the proposed structure to the action of permeable radiation. Also, studies of the dependence of the conductivity of single-crystal semiconductors on the radiation dose ɣ by quanta and neutron flux show that a significant increase in the specific resistivity of AS occurs at doses 2-3 orders of magnitude larger than in the case of single-crystal n-type conductivity semiconductors.

Authors: Naureen Saeed  , Fatima-tuz-zuhra  , Nadeem Ikram  , Farhana Shaukat  , Fareeha Sardar
Published: September 2020

Background: Pakistan faces an immense burden of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) due to large number of cases and limited resources. Despite the recent advancement in the diagnostic techniques for pulmonary TB, smear microscopy is still a useful technique for the diagnosis of this disease. This study was conducted in order to compare the diagnostic value of Auramine stain with the conventional Ziehl-Neelsen (ZN) stain on the sputum smear for the diagnosis of pulmonary TB, keeping GeneXpert MTB/RIF as the gold standard.

Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 356 suspected patients of pulmonary TB referred to the Pathology laboratory from TB ward and OPD of District Head Quarter (DHQ) teaching hospital Rawalpindi, Pakistan. Sputum specimen were collected and two smears were prepared from each sputum sample on which Auramine phenol and Ziehl-Neelsen staining were carried out as per WHO recommendations. All these samples were further tested using Gene Xpert MTB/RIF technique. The sensitivity, specificity, Positive predictive value (PPV) and Negative predictive values (NPV) of ZN and Auramine stain were calculated and compared with GeneXpert MTB/RIF technique.

Results: Out of the total 356 samples, 64(18%) were positive and 291(82%) were negative by GeneXpert which was taken as the gold standard. On comparison with GeneXpert, percentage of true positive was greater in case of Auramine than ZN stained samples (16.29% versus 12.92%), while the percentage of false positive was same for both staining techniques (0.28%). There were lesser false negative cases observed in samples stained by Auramine as compared to the ones stained by ZN (1.68% versus 5.05%). The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive values were 97.87%, 94.17%, 71.88 and 99.66%, respectively for the ZN staining and 98.31%, 97.98%, 90.63% and 99.66% respectively, for the Auramine phenol staining.

Conclusion: Smear microscopy using Auramine phenol stain is a useful technique for the diagnosis of pulmonary TB. The Auramine phenol staining with fluorescent microscopy is found to be superior to ZN staining because of higher sensitivity and specificity.

Issues in Clinical Learning Environment among Undergraduate Nursing Students in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan
Authors: Khan Asghar , Hamida Begum
Published: September 2020

Background: Nursing students apply theoretical and evidence-based knowledge on real patients in clinical placements, thus poor clinical education may affect their performance along with patient care. The perceptions of nursing internees may serve as a solid evidence of issues in clinical learning. The objective of this study was to identify issues regarding clinical learning among undergraduate nursing students.

Material and Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional design was employed to collect data from a sample of 72 graduated Nursing Internees from Nursing Colleges in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK) province of Pakistan. This study was conducted from April 2019 to August 2019. A Questionnaire in the form of Likert scale was developed for data collection regarding past experiences of their undergraduate studies. SPSS 22 was used for analysis. Chi-squared test was used to compare between male/female, public/private clinical placements and public/private colleges, respectively.   

Results: Of the participants 79% (n=57) were male and 21% (n=15) were female. Mean age of participants was 24.29±1.72 years. Four barriers in clinical education due to deficiencies in educational institutions included: shortage of clinical teachers (76.4%), clinical teachers rarely visited students (75%), too many students were supervised by a single teacher (81.9%) and students are overloaded with too many written assignments (75%). The P-value for shortage of clinical teachers was statistically significant (P=.016). The main barriers in clinical education attributed to clinical settings or the hospitals were behavior of the hospital staff resulting in the loss of students’ confidence (73.6%) and anxiety of students to perform wrong procedures (73.6%).  However, none of these barriers in clinical education were statistically significant (P>0.05).

Conclusion: Findings of the study illustrated dissatisfaction of graduate nursing internees regarding the clinical education as almost all the issues received more than 50% responses.

Authors: Abhishek Lal  , M. Saleem Mahnoor Khawaja , Naseer Ahmed
Published: September 2020

We aimed in this literature review to demonstrate the association and potential of detecting novel coronavirus in saliva of patients and how its implication in future can aid in diagnosis as a non-invasive diagnostic modality. The specimen can be easily obtained and tested from suspected individuals. Review of available literature in PubMed, Google Scholar, EBSCO, and Semantic Scholar was carried out using keywords and combination of “Coronavirus”, “saliva” and “diagnosis”. Of 1846 articles found, 110 were screened and included in this literature review. Currently, nasopharyngeal swab is the standard diagnostic tool as it has been reported to be accurate and sensitive towards detection of coronavirus. Testing of saliva specimens is now being considered to aid rapid detection, because saliva collection and its testing are relatively simple, cheap, and safe for both patients as well as healthcare professionals. Further research on this will be beneficial to control and contain the virus.

Authors: Abdul Rasheed Qureshi  , Huma Bilal  , Muhammad Sajid  , Zeeshan Ashraf
Published: September 2020

Background: Corona virus infection requires early detection and precise diagnosis for an effective control in community. COVID-19 PCR is the gold standard diagnostic test having low sensitivity and adequate availability constraints. Because of high false negative rate, a large number of undetected patients remain a constant source of inadvertent disease dissemination in the community. This study was conducted to explore the diagnostic usefulness of transthoracic ultrasonography for COVID-19 pneumonia during the current pandemic.

Material and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in the Pulmonology OPD of Gulab Devi Teaching Hospital, Lahore-Pakistan from April 1, 2020 to July 30, 2020. A total of 237 patients with dry cough, fever and shortness of breath of sudden onset, clinically diagnosed as COVID-19 pulmonary infection, were included in the study. Patients were investigated with chest x-ray/HRCT, transthoracic ultrasonography, COVID-19 RT-PCR on nasopharyngeal samples and hematological tests. Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV (positive predictive value), NPV (negative predictive value) and diagnostic accuracy of transthoracic ultrasonography was calculated with P-value <0.05 considered as statistically significant. SPSS-26 software was used for statistical analysis.

Results: Of the total 237 patients (mean age 41.23±17.5 years) presenting with complaints of a pulmonary infection, 228 were diagnosed as COVID-19 pulmonary infection by transthoracic ultrasonography and PCR.  Bilateral lesions and B-lines were the most frequent characteristic features on ultrasonography (n=237 patients; 100%). Transthoracic ultrasound diagnosed 228 patients as cases of COVID-19 pneumonia with 100% sensitivity, 66.67% specificity, 98.7% PPV, 100% NPV, and 98.73% diagnostic accuracy. Only 135 /228 (59.21%) patients were diagnosed by RT-PCR. The P-value by Fisher exact test was highly significant at 0.001 (cut-off P- value < 0.05).

Conclusion: Transthoracic ultrasonography is a useful diagnostic tool with a high sensitivity, is free- from radiation exposure and capable of providing foundations for evidence based, early detection of corona virus pneumonia in a pandemic situation.

Authors: Abdul Rasheed Qureshi  , Huma Bilal  , Muhammad Sajid
Published: September 2020

Pulmonary Hamartomas are benign lung tumors, containing cartilage, connective tissue, fat and usually appear as peripheral lesions. They are 2-4 cm in size, frequently asymptomatic, comprising of 5–8% of all solitary pulmonary nodules. The peak incidence occurs in 40-70 years of age with a male preponderance. We describe a unique case of centrally located, giant chondroid hamartoma, in the background of pulmonary hemosiderosis. Patient presented with cough, shortness of breath and left sided chest pain, masquerading as pleural effusion, lung cancer and left sided chest pain mimicking myocardial disease. Chest x-ray raised the suspicion of pleural effusion but ultrasound and CT-scan indicated a benign calcified central mass. A presumptive diagnosis of cartilage-containing benign mass was made on ultrasound-guided percutaneous biopsy, while surgical resection followed by histopathology revealed a chondroid hamartoma. No recurrence was noted on follow-up. Chondroid hamartoma can be large, symptomatic and requires modern modalities for diagnosis while its association with pulmonary hemosiderosis, still requires to be investigated.

Namun, sebuah studi menyatakan bahwa pemberian suplementasi besi dosis 50–60 mg/hari (150–185 mg/hari fero sulfat) pada wanita hamil berisiko menyebabkan hemokonsentrasi, preeklamsia, dan diabetes gestasional. Suplemen zat besi serta peningkatan cadangan zat besi dalam darah dikaitkan dengan komplikasi pada ibu hamil dan peningkatan stres oksidatif yang menyebabkan peningkatan lipid peroxidase selama kehamilan. Tujuan: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh suplementasi ferro sulfat terhadap kadar LDL dan HDL pada tikus bunting. Metode: Desain penelitian yang digunakan adalah post test only control group design. Sampel adalah 25 ekor tikus yang dibagi menjadi lima kelompok, yaitu kelompok tikus bunting normal, tikus bunting anemia, tikus bunting anemia yang diberi ferro sulfat selama 18 hari, tikus bunting anemia yang diberi ferro sulfat selama 12 hari, dan tikus bunting anemia yang diberi ferro sulfat selama 6 hari. Pemeriksaan parameter dilakukan pada hari ke-18 kebuntingan. Analisis data dilakukan dengan uji One Way ANOVA lalu dilanjutkan uji post hoc Fisher’s Least Significant Different (LSD) menggunakan software SPSS 20. Hasil: Lama waktu pemberian ferro sulfat berpengaruh terhadap kadar LDL dan HDL tikus bunting anemia (p<0,001). Kesimpulan: Lama waktu suplementasi ferro sulfat akan meningkatkan kadar LDL dan menurunkan kadar HDL pada tikus bunting model anemia.

Digital Media and Political Participation among Nigerian Youths in the 2019 General Elections
Authors: Izuogu Kingsley Chukwuemeka
Published: September 2020

Every era in life throws up its own opportunities and challenges, and here we are, in a digital era made possible by advancements in information and communication technologies. That being the case, it will amount to self-deceit for anybody in this era to pretend that the advancements in information and communication technologies do not have any effects on the political, social, cultural and religious lives of the people. At the political arena, the advent of digital media has brought about an entirely different type of politicking and campaigns referred to as digital political campaigns. This type of campaign permits politicians to reach out to the electorate through digital platforms without necessarily embarking on rallies. As a matter of truth, the technologies of those digital media and their resultant online platforms have not only bridged the communication gap between content-creators and content-consumers; but have even gone a long way in turning the communication process into a more interactive, participatory and democratic dialogue. Thus, the public communication sphere has been flung wide-open for public participation without restrictions. By the very nature of the digital media (interactive, participatory and democratic); it could be assumed that anybody with an internet-enabled device can become a partaker in the communication process. But such an assumption may forever remain conjecture until it is connected or experimented upon. To that end, this study investigated the use of digital media for political participation in the 2019 general elections in Nigeria. It adopted the survey method of research to determine: (i) the most-frequently-used digital media for political participation of Nigerian youths in the 2019 elections (ii) the amount of time Nigerian youths spent on the digital media for political participation in the 2019 elections (iii) the number of times Nigerian youths visited the digital media for political participation in the 2019 elections (iv) the gratifications which Nigerian youths sought from the digital media and (v) the relationship between use of the digital media and political-needs gratification among Nigerian youths.
