Verbal vocabulary in Mongolian languages related to cattle breeding
Authors: Lidzhieva Liudmila , Lidzhieva Dzhirgal , Kharchevnikova Roza , Mandeev Naran
Published: March 2024

The article examines the verbal vocabulary of the Mongolian languages related to cattle breeding. Mongolian-speaking peoples traditionally consider themselves nomadic pastoralists. In this regard, a whole layer of pastoral vocabulary has been formed in the Mongolian languages, which reflects the most diverse names associated with the economic use of livestock. The purpose of the article is to analyze the pastoral vocabulary of the Mongolian languages and determine the similarities and differences of terms in Khalkha-Mongolian, Buryat, Oirat and Kalmyk languages. The material of the written Mongolian language and the Turkic languages was used for comparative analysis. The data from various dictionaries of the Mongolian languages served as the material for the study. The analysis made it possible to identify the verbal vocabulary common to all languages and specific terms characteristic of individual languages. The material revealed lexemes with the meaning of actions reflecting the behavior, habits of cattle, various sounds made by cattle, as well as terms related to calving a cow, its milk yield. Most of the meanings of the represented lexemes in the Mongolian closely related languages coincide. But there are separate lexemes that are characterized by the presence or absence in a particular Mongolian language. As a result of the development of Mongolian languages, in some of them, lexemes under the influence of other languages have become obsolete and have ceased to be used in modern speech. In others, they have been preserved and continue to be used at the present time. This is due to the peculiarities of the development of languages, their cultural and historical conditions, and language contacts. The results of this study can contribute to further research of lexical units in comparative historical coverage.

Authors: Kharitonova Daria , Maratkanova Elvira , Aizatullin Irek
Published: March 2024

The article deals with the changing position of Russian automobile manufacturing enterprises in the international arena, which was caused by the withdrawal from the Russian markets of foreign companies with which they cooperated. Due to the fact that a number of components used for the needs of the automotive industry were imported, the question of finding their replacement in the domestic markets became acute. The main objective of this study is to describe the current state of the automotive industry in Russia. Using the example of two large Russian automobile manufacturers that participated in global value chains, the authors analyzed the consequences of their exit from these chains. The authors analyzed the dynamics of profits after withdrawal from global value chains and the measures that were taken by the management of the enterprises. It was found that, pursuing the same goals, the two companies use different strategies for their realization. The authors compared the financial indicators at the time of termination of cooperation and one year after the fact. Having considered the situations of two Russian representatives of the automotive industry, it was concluded that the situation had a significant impact on their financial results. Implementation of the import substitution policy and increasing the level of localization allows obtaining positive results, and entering new markets helps to compensate for closed markets for exports. The direction for further research in the automotive industry can be further, more precise assessment of the effectiveness of the implemented measures. The direction for research in other industries is to assess the applicability of the above mechanisms to stabilize activities in a similar situation.

The swearing pandemic: possible risks and consequences
Authors: Lavrikova Irina
Published: March 2024

Judging by numerous publications, which, among other things, contain the results of sociological surveys, in the age of the finest technologies, our society has been «covered» by a pandemic of profanity.
The author of the article attempts to analyze what is happening from a scientific point of view, namely: to study the origins and get acquainted with the nature of the phenomenon, its vitality and ability to «revolutionary reproduction», etc.
Based on the research results, the author introduces the opinion of modern scientists about the active use of obscene vocabulary. In this regard, we are talking, first of all, about the reasons for its taboo by our ancestors, then about the functional features of the use of obscene vocabulary (increasing the emotionality of speech; relieving psychological tension; insulting, humiliating the addressee of speech, etc.); in addition, about the negative impact of swear words on the physical and emotional state of a person; about the causes of the survivability of speech obscenities, etc.
Systematizing the available research, the author formulates the possible consequences and risks of the «expletive pandemic», such as: the adoption of profanity as a norm (against the background of cultural polymorphism); the formation of language poverty; the understanding of the mat as a kind of manifestation of subcultural extremism; the presentation of spontaneous profanity as an indicator of intolerance, aggression and violence in society itself.
According to the author, according to numerous surveys, modern Russian society is indifferent, indifferent, in different ways, but, for the most part, takes obscene vocabulary for granted. The author expresses confidence in the need to immediately prevent the spread of the expletive pandemic by all available means.

Authors: Proshkova Zoya
Published: March 2024

The article deals with the inheritance of technical professions for three generations of the family. The relevance of the study is due to the need of studying the influence of the family on the educational, professional, and cultural capital of students. The main issues of the project are the educational and professional paths of several generations of the family, family capital, motives for choosing a technical profession by students of Russian universities, dynasties of technical specialists, the collection of biographical works as a method of empirical sociology.
The autobiographies written by the students of technical specialties of Russian higher educational institutions were analyzed. The educational experience of parents, grandparents of informants was studied. The author presents the classification of professions of the older generations of the family. The texts were processed using specialized computer programs.
It is established that the technical profession is leading in the list of occupations of the older generations of the students' family. The second place is occupied by workers in the field of economics. In the dynasties of technical specialists, the main factor in choosing a profession is the inheritance of family professional, educational, cultural and social capital. In other families, the main motives for choosing a technical education and profession are the abilities and interests of the student, as well as the prospects of a high income. Inheritance of a profession closes the ranking of reasons for admission to technical faculties.
A methodological analysis of the collection of biographical works was carried out. The approach minimizes the presence of the researcher at the field stage of the project implementation, allows the use of computer text processing, is relevant to the study of generational issues in sociology. Among the disadvantages of the method is the incompleteness of the primary information received.
The results of the project can be used to solve the tasks of social policy in the fields of labor, education and family. The experience of generational analysis of biographical materials is important to sociology.

Authors: Latkin Alexander
Published: March 2024

The article analyzes trends in changes in the fisheries business landscape within the framework of the ongoing state policy of supporting entrepreneurship; the author's approach to revealing the content of the concept of «business landscape» in relation to modern conditions for the development of Russian entrepreneurship is formulated; The main stages of the development of small and medium-sized businesses in the modern history of Russia are systematized according to the criteria of its actual state, trends and problems. The author has examined the effectiveness of government decisions in recent years on the development of aquatic biological resources in the Far Eastern basin and identified the formation of negative changes in the Russian business landscape over the past ten years, and especially in the context of sanctions restrictions on the development of the national economy. Based on a generalization of the results of foreign and domestic research, the article proposes the author’s definition of the economic category «business landscape», which is important for management purposes, and assesses the level of participation of Russian small and medium-sized businesses in the formation of gross domestic product in comparison with developed countries. Taking into account his own long-term practice of participating in the organization of management of business structures, the author proposed a staged development of entrepreneurship in Russia over the past
30-year period; Negative changes in the business landscape are outlined using the example of fishing activities in the Far Eastern basin, establishing the imperfections of government decisions taken in recent years to increase the tax burden and complicate the procedure for obtaining fishing quotas and environmental permits for fishing entrepreneurship. The results obtained in the course of the study allow us to consider the transition to a new paradigm of state management of the development processes of the Russian fishery business landscape in the interests of all levels of entrepreneurship and the national consumer market to be considered legitimate and appropriate.
Formation of special and leadership competencies of the head of an organization: the approach of the educational environment
Authors: Maslova Olga , Kalmykova Olga
Published: March 2024

In modern economic conditions, the most important factor in increasing the efficiency and productivity of personnel is the strategy of developing special and leadership competencies of line and functional managers of industrial organizations. Currently, there is an increase in the scope of responsibility of managers: implementation of project activities; digital transformation of business processes; building effective business communications; carrying out timely prevention of destructive conflicts and professional stress of personnel, etc. These factors increase the requirements for the competence of a modern manager: for his special, leadership competencies and for the level of emotional intelligence. In order to timely solve strategic problems of innovative development, it is necessary to create favorable socio-psychological and organizational conditions of the internal environment of an industrial organization, ensuring an increase in the level of development of not only professional competencies, but soft skills. The presence of a set of these groups of competencies in the «portfolio» of managers’ competencies makes it possible to demonstrate the effectiveness of managerial work. By the effectiveness of managerial work, the authors understand the degree of achievement of the tactical and strategic objectives set in the organization for the development of human resources, taking into account the costs of production factors and management competencies. It is necessary to increase this indicator based on a strategy for expanding management competencies, which allows for optimal use of production factors, thereby increasing the pace of socio-economic development of the organization. In this study, we adhere to the hypothesis that the strategy for the formation of special and leadership competencies must be considered as a mandatory element of the active personnel policy of a modern organization, ensuring the harmonization of social and labor relations. The following methods were used in this study: method of comparison and synthesis of information; questionnaire; expert survey. As part of the theoretical stage of the study, an analysis of scientific publications was carried out, the results of which are of practical importance for determining the principles and methods of developing special and leadership competencies of managers. At the empirical stage of the study, a questionnaire survey and an expert survey were conducted to assess the importance of management competencies of line and functional managers of industrial organizations in the oil and gas industry. The article presents an analysis of the results of questionnaire and expert surveys. In the study, the experts were line managers of an industrial organization in the oil and gas industry (three experts), and the respondents in the survey were students studying in the field of «Management» at Samara State Technical University
Psychological well-being and the value-semantic component of the systemogenesis of the professional development of a psychologist as a subject of labor at the stage of pre-professional development
Authors: Egorenko Tatiana
Published: March 2024

The article presents data from an empirical study of psychological well-being and the value-semantic component of the systemogenesis of the professional formation of a psychologist as a subject of work at the stage of pre-professional development. The stage of pre-professional development of the subject of labor includes two stages: the stage of preparation for professional choice and the stage of professional training. In the article, the author examines the stage of professional training, which plays an important role in the formation of a psychologist as a professional. The introduction presents the concepts of psychological well-being and the
value-semantic aspect of professional development of the individual that are central to the study. The empirical study involved 817 1st–4th year students of psychological and psychological-pedagogical fields studying at leading Russian universities. To study the connection between psychological
well-being and the value-semantic component of the systemogenesis of professional development, the following methods were used: «Psychological Well-Being Scale» by K. Riff (adapted by T.D. Shevelenkova, P.P. Fesenko) includes the scales: «Positive Relationships», «Autonomy», «Environmental Management», «Personal Growth», «Goals in Life», «Self-Acceptance», «Psychological Well-Being» (generalized indicator), «Affect Balance» and «Core Beliefs Questionnaire» R. Janoff-Bulman (in adaptation by O. Kravtsova) allows you to analyze the results according to general categories of beliefs: «The favor of the world», «The meaningfulness of the world», «The value of one’s own self». The study of the relationship between these variables was carried out on the basis of the correlation analysis procedure, which was used in the version of Spearman's rank correlation. Based on the results obtained, it is concluded that the systemogenesis of the professional development of a psychologist at the stage of professional training assumes a relationship between psychological well-being and the value-semantic component. Psychological well-being contributes to the formation of positive values and meanings in professional activities, and the value-semantic component contributes to the achievement of psychological well-being.

The purpose and algorithm of the work presented were determined by the main methodological principles of teaching a foreign language and the results planned in the Basic educational program of higher education of bachelor’s degree. The purpose of the study was to identify ways and methods of effective use of digital tools for developing business communication skills of students in non-linguistic universities. The possibilities of modern digital tools to provide successful students’ business communication s in the context of a foreign language environment were analyzed. The digital tools Miro, Nearpod, and Google Calendar were chosen for the work. The following statement was formulated. Methodically competent use of the digital tools would improve students’ skills to conduct a dialogue and create a monologue in a foreign language in accordance with the goals and conditions of business communication. The presented statement had been verified by empirical methods. The experimental and control groups of first-year undergraduate students were formed according to the level of their foreign language skills determined by the entrance testing. During the experiment, students were required to prepare and hold several conferences with presentations on certain issues, followed by discussions. Criteria were developed for evaluating monologues-presentations and subsequent discussions in the form of an exchange of dialogical statements. During the preparation and holding of conferences, the students of the experimental group used selected digital tools (Miro, Nearpod, Google Calendar). The students of the control group did not use these digital tools. As a result of the experiment, significant dynamics in the level of preparing and presenting the material among the students of the experimental group was noted. The obtained results allowed the authors to develop methodological algorithm for the effective use of digital tools in business interaction of students studying in non-linguistic higher education institutions

Authors: Polyansky Andrey , Bykovskaya Lyubov
Published: March 2024

The relevance of the chosen topic is explained by the authors, including with the help of divorce statistics in the modern world. In particular, in Russia, according to Russian Statistics, 47 thousand 537 marriages were registered at the time of February 2023, while the number of divorces is 46 thousand 101. That is, the total number of divorces is almost completely equal to the number of marriages concluded. This fact arouses the interest of many researchers, in particular, and the authors of this article, to the phenomenon of marriage and the image of a marriage partner. It is also necessary to mention (and this is done by the authors, as far as the conciseness of the scientific work allows) and various categories of factors (social, technological, etc.) that affect the attitude to the institution of marriage itself in modern society. The provisions briefly given in this paper reflect the main results of a scientific study that was conducted with the participation of students of the Moscow University for the Humanities.

The main hypothesis of the authors is that there are differences between the stereotypes of a representative of the opposite sex and the image of a future marriage partner in boys and girls aged 16 to 20–21 years. In accordance with the proposed theoretical and methodological provisions, the authors have compiled a program of empirical research, which includes the subject, object, goals, objectives and methods, for example, quantitative as well as qualitative processing of the data obtained. The final practical significance of the obtained results is deduced and formulated, the circle of persons who may be interested in the formulated conclusions is determined.
Orientation tasks in the system of pedagogical stimulation of forming a university student learning strategy
Authors: Vardanyan Yulia , Likhacheva Ekaterina
Published: March 2024

The article is devoted to the problem of forming a student learning strategy. The urgency of the problem is justified by the necessity to meet the need of modern society in people who are capable and striving for continuous education and self-realization. The authors consider the concept of a student learning strategy as an important phenomenon necessary to achieve the goal of learning, successfully mastering not only knowledge, skills and abilities, but also their application in various types of activity. Attention is focused on the development of ways to implement educational actions that contribute to the design of the upcoming learning strategy, its implementation, monitoring of one’s own educational achievements and the gradual mastery of the technology of its independent development and implementation in the learning process. The components of the learning strategy (incentive and oriented, operational and technological, analytical and reflective) are highlighted. The Incentive and orientation component includes the need to achieve the learning goal, the dominant motives and values of the student. The operational and technological component is represented by the formation of predictive skills and the ability to regulate the process of building and implementing a learning strategy. The analytical and reflexive component consists of the ability to analyze and introspect the changes taking place in the process of forming a learning strategy.
Orientation tasks act as one of the means of forming a student learning strategy. The authors propose a classification of orientation tasks into aspect and integration tasks. Aspect orientation tasks are aimed at updating, developing and correcting the highlighted components of the learning strategy. Integration orientation tasks are aimed at implementing a learning strategy by combining all the available experience and resources of the student. The article provides examples of the application of orientation tasks. The developed orientation tasks can be used both in classes in various disciplines and in extracurricular activity (research, talks, trainings).
The authors have established that orientation tasks developed and implemented in the educational process of the university are an effective tool that contributes to a well-founded and
high-quality pedagogical stimulation of the formation and implementation of learning strategy by a student.
Palliative care in modern Russia: appearance and functions
Authors: Aganson German
Published: March 2024

The article presents an analysis of the prerequisites for the emergence of palliative care and its functions in modern Russia. The fundamental idea of modern palliative care is the absence of suffering of an incurable patient, first of all, the minimization of physical suffering, while palliative care allows solving a number of problems in the field of comprehensive support for incurable patients. Palliative care in its organizational forms begins its development in European countries and the USA, the hospice movement also emerges in Russia, however, certain prerequisites for caring for incurable patients (and not only oncological patients) were created in our country back in the 19th century. The scientific prerequisites for the formation of hospices as special institutions whose purpose is to care for dying patients are the experience of treating chronic pain, as well as effective psychotropic drugs, dynamically developing anti-cancer chemotherapy and radiation therapy, and achievements of medical psychology. An analysis of the functions of palliative care allows us to come to the conclusion that for palliative medicine and healthcare in Russia in general, the priority goal is to relieve the patient from pain; it is also important to disseminate information about possible means of achieving this effect. Palliative care relieves incurable patients from the humiliation caused by pain, illness, and infirmity. It implements several functions: it forms charitable medicine as a new form of medical and social service for incurable patients, promotes the provision of medical care to patients in the terminal stage, including at home, allows for symptomatic treatment of patients in the terminal stages, and organizes qualified care for them using psychotherapeutic and traditional methods, select and carry out the necessary pain relief therapy, provide psychological and social support to relatives during the period of illness and loss of a loved one.

Authors: Costa Patricia Sheilla , Altamirano Guerrero Gerardo , Ramírez Luna Luis Edmundo , Guía Hernández Luis Antonio
Published: March 2024

Resumen La soldadura subacuática mojada utilizando el proceso con alambre tubular autoprotegido ha sido foco de estudio en los últimos años debido principalmente a su mayor productividad en comparación con el proceso de soldadura manual con electrodo revestido. En la presente investigación se evalúa el efecto del aumento del aporte térmico sobre las características geométricas y microestructurales de cordones de soldadura desarrollados sobre placas de acero ASTM A36. Para este propósito, fueron realizadas tres soldaduras experimentales con diferentes velocidades de avance resultando en tres niveles diferentes de aportación térmica. Las características geométricas evaluadas fueron la penetración, el refuerzo y el ancho de la zona afectada por el calor (ZAC), además, se llevó a cabo el análisis de la porosidad interna y de la microestructura en la sección transversal de cada cordón. Los principales resultados mostraron que el aumento de aporte térmico incrementa el refuerzo, la penetración y el ancho de la ZAC. Por otra parte, la microestructura de la zona de fusión consistió básicamente de ferrita y bainita, mientras que en la ZAC se detectó presencia de martensita. El análisis general de los resultados indicó que es posible obtener soldaduras clase B según el código de soldadura AWS D3.6.

Crimes estatais-corporativos e violações de direitos humanos: um ensaio sobre a relação simbiótica entre Estados e corporações
Authors: Ferreira Letícia Gracielle Vieira , Oliveira Cíntia Rodrigues de
Published: March 2024

Resumo Nesse ensaio buscamos ampliar a compreensão dos crimes estatais-corporativos que violam direitos humanos por meio de uma aproximação da literatura do crime-estatal corporativo com campo dos estudos organizacionais. Argumentamos que crimes corporativos violadores de direitos humanos são (re)produzidos com a participação do Estado, em função das lacunas de governança estabelecidas pela globalização, criando uma relação simbiótica que potencializa a normalização de tais infrações. Nossa argumentação é a de que tal problema resulta de uma articulação deliberadamente organizada e constituída, historicamente, por meio de relações de poder, que visam garantir uma ordem social centrada na manutenção dos interesses capitalistas, modo de produção em que vida, morte e violência são normalizadas.
Cooperative or competitive style of conflict management? Effects on information sharing and agricultural cooperatives’ performance
Authors: Oliveira Renata Mendes de , Beuren Ilse Maria
Published: March 2024

Abstract This study examines the influence of conflict management styles, both cooperative and competitive, on information sharing and, in turn, on organizational performance. The mediation of information sharing in the relationship between conflict management styles and organizational performance is also examined. The effects of conflict management styles were analyzed at the intragroup level in a field that presupposes cooperation through a survey carried out with professionals who work in agricultural cooperatives. For the analysis of the 91 valid answers, partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was used. The results indicate a relationship between conflict management styles and information sharing, which is positive for the cooperative style and negative for the competitive style. Furthermore, a positive relationship was observed between information sharing and organizational performance. However, no mediating effect of information sharing on the relationship between cooperative and competitive conflict management styles and organizational performance was found. Based on the results, it is concluded that the cooperative style of conflict management promotes the sharing of information and improves organizational performance. The same was not found for the competitive style of conflict management in the researched cooperatives. This broadens discussions about the possible benefits of conflicts in organizations, contrasting with the approaches about their harmful effects on organizational performance.
Citationism as academic erudition and as a strategic action
Authors: Vizeu Fabio
Published: March 2024

Abstract Being erudite represents an important characteristic of the academic, causing academic prose to be marked by an aura of sophistication and intellectual elitism. When erudition manifests in the practice of citationism, it can constitute a communicative distortion strategy instrumentalized to avoid or minimize debate or more accurate argumentation. Discussing this specific problem is the purpose of this essay. This criticism is developed by considering Habermas’ philosophical-sociological perspective, in which communication constitutes a process of exchange of intersubjective meanings while establishing itself as a strategic act of intervention in the world. In this sense, citacionism is seen as a usage of the specificities of the specialized lexicon in the academic world, working as an important mechanism of domination and influence despite the unintelligibility derived from this process.
Fã cínico: falando a verdade descaradamente
Authors: Souza-Leão André Luiz Maranhão de , Ferreira Bruno Rafael Torres , Moura Bruno Melo
Published: March 2024

Resumo O objetivo do presente estudo é avaliar como os fãs estruturam sua fanidade a partir de discussões sobre a inserção de pautas políticas em produtos midiáticos, uma ação recorrente observada na indústria do entretenimento nos últimos tempos. A partir da análise das interações dos fãs de Star Wars sobre a recente introdução de personagens que representam identidades políticas na saga, o estudo abordou o conceito foucaultiano de subjetivação por meio da manifestação de verdades, adotando seu método arqueogenealógico. Dessa análise resultaram dois agenciamentos morais, a saber: a inovação avaliada pelos fãs de Star Wars quanto à inserção de novos personagens representativos na saga e a adequação que tais mudanças precisam atender, embora mantendo-se em conformidade com a forma estabelecida do cânone da saga. Ambas as agências refletem a preocupação com a manutenção do status quo da franquia e não com a agenda política. O presente estudo avaliou a coragem de dizer a verdade como uma prática cínica empenhada em perpetuar sua própria subjetividade ao reger outras verdades.
Pirataria intelectual nas práticas de pesquisa em Administração
Authors: Bispo Marcelo de Souza , Vieira Almir Martins
Published: March 2024

Resumo O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar o conceito de pirataria intelectual e suas consequências de caráter ético-legal e formativo no campo acadêmico da Administração. Trata-se de um ensaio sobre uma prática identificada pelos autores, mas pouco discutida no meio acadêmico. A pirataria intelectual é uma modalidade sutil de plágio que normalmente não é identificada por softwares. Consiste na prática de copiar uma sistematização teórica ou ideia produzida por outra pessoa, sem citá-la. Tal prática torna-se evidente não pela cópia de palavras ou frases, mas pelo emprego de um conjunto de autores, até mesmo citações, utilizados em outro trabalho, sob a aparência de que as escolhas e a sistematização teórica são originais. Nossa contribuição está em oferecer um conceito que seja capaz de definir uma prática de plágio que ainda não está presente na literatura sobre o tema em questão. Concluímos que a pirataria intelectual não se trata apenas de um problema ético-legal, mas é também reflexo de deficiências na formação de pesquisadores em relação a aspectos como autoria, originalidade, teorização e teoria no fazer científico.
Accepting or refusing a donated organ for transplantation: Dr. Jonas’ dilemma
Authors: DIB LUÍS ANTÔNIO DA ROCHA , ARAÚJO CLAUDIA , ANDRADE JOEL DE , SILVA MÔNICA FERREIRA DA
Published: March 2024

Abstract The case presents the dilemma faced by Dr. Jonas, the physician responsible for the decision to accept or refuse a kidney for transplant for his patient, Carlos, who has been waiting for a kidney for five years. Dr. Jonas is guided by rationality and science and wants the best for his patient. However, he wants to maintain his excellent success rates in transplants. Carlos is eager to “come back to life” with the transplant, getting out of the terrible dialysis routine. With the death of Sebastião, a kidney is available for Carlos, but he is a 68-year-old donor, and Dr. Jonas is hesitant to accept the non-ideal organ for his 40-year-old patient. The case proves to be opportune to discuss Judgment and Decision Making (JTD) processes, especially the escape from rationality by simplifying behavioral heuristics and their consequent biases. The case was developed to be used in JTD or management disciplines in Health and Healthcare services in lato or stricto sensu postgraduate programs. By discussing the case, students are expected to develop skills to structure decision-making and avoid common behavioral pitfalls.

Published: March 2024

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the prevalence of hidden neuraxial pathology (NAP) revealed in idiopathic scoliosis (IS) in neurologically normal patients. Methods: We selected 401 patients with IS who visited our clinic. We identified patterns of NAP and its frequency. In addition to the main part of the study, we assessed the reliability of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) measuring of the pedicles to plan screw width and trajectory. Results: Among the 401 patients, 53 (13%) presented NAP. The proportion of males in this group was higher (42% vs. 21%, p=0.004), the age of onset of the deformity was lower (8.9±3.77 vs. 9.9±3.93 years old, p=0.045), the left-sided thoracic curve was more frequent (21% vs. 8%, p=0.016), thoracic kyphosis was more pronounced (p=0.070), and the percentage of revision surgeries for deformity progression or non-fusion was higher (13% vs. 5%, p=0.147). Conclusions: The spine MRI should be performed in the early stages of IS, as in some cases of NAP (Chiari, tethered spinal cord), there is the possibility of an early neurosurgical operation that will prevent the development of scoliosis. The main signs of hidden NAP in IS are early-onset IS, IS with left-sided thoracic curve, male gender, and thoracic kyphosis > 40°Cobb. Level of Evidence II; Retrospective Study.

Published: March 2024

ABSTRACT Objective: Transpedicular fixation has rapidly evolved over the last 100 years. A common complication is screw misplacement which can lead to neurological deficits, vascular damage, or organ perforation. We intend to assess the correlation between screw misplacement and radicular symptoms through the Gertzbein scale. Methods: We conducted an observational longitudinal retrospective study on patients who underwent free-hand lumbar instrumentation surgery with fluoroscopy assistance. The patients were evaluated with postoperative CT scans, and screw positions were classified with the Gertzbein scale. Results: The initial sample included 99 patients who underwent surgery. Of the 317 screws placed, 201 did not show cortical damage, 105 screws exhibited variable invasion, and 11 screws displayed severe invasion. 96.5% screws were placed in the safe zone, with 8.6% of patients (n=5.0) exhibiting transitory weakness. 3.47% of screws (n=11) with severe invasion were seen in 7 patients of which two patients suffered from motor deficient and persistent radicular pain. Conclusion: It is of the utmost importance to pay attention to the precise insertion of the screws to minimize the risk of radicular manifestations. We recommend performing control CT scans after the procedure to ensure the correct insertion of the screws, and in case of finding a screw in a no-safe zone or Getsbein 3 position, considering screw repositioning due to high-risk neurologic damage is highly encouraged.

RESUMO Objetivo Analisar a concordância entre indicadores de alimentação complementar da Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS) e do Ministério da Saúde (MS) e comparar as prevalências entre esses indicadores em crianças no primeiro ano de vida. Métodos Estudo transversal em uma coorte de 286 crianças de Vitória da Conquista, Bahia, Brasil; a concordância entre indicadores e a comparação entre prevalências foram analisadas pelo índice Kappa e teste de McNemar; foram calculadas as prevalências dos indicadores “introdução de alimentos complementares” (IAC), “diversidade mínima da dieta” (DMD), “frequência mínima de refeição” (FMR) e “dieta minimamente aceitável” (DMA). Resultados Três indicadores apresentaram concordância ruim, e apenas um moderada; as prevalências dos indicadores da OMS foram superiores às do MS (IAC, 94,3% versus 20,7%; DMD, 75,2% versus 50,7%; FMR, 97,2% versus 44,8%; DMA, 96,8% versus 26,9%). Conclusão A maioria dos indicadores tiveram concordância ruim e as prevalências de indicadores da OMS superaram as do MS.

Introdução: Na ocorrência da lesão miocárdica, a identificação de biomarcadores constituintes da célula muscular cardíaca, em especial as troponinas, pode ser observada a partir de amostras de sangue e saliva. A preferência pela utilização da saliva como fluído diagnóstico é sustentada pela facilidade de obtenção a partir de método não invasivo e potencialmente pré-hospitalar.

Objetivo: Verificar a expressão de troponina I do fluído salivar no infarto agudo do miocárdio em triagens de emergências e pré-hospitalares e correlacioná-la com os níveis plasmáticos da troponina I.

Método: Estudo analítico transversal de teste diagnóstico em 27 pacientes, 9 mulheres e 18 homens, com confirmação diagnóstica de infarto agudo do miocárdio. Foram coletadas amostras de sangue e saliva armazenadas e transportadas em período de até 24 h para quantificação da troponina I.

Resultados: O estudo demonstrou que 44,4% dos pacientes apresentaram positivação de troponina I em ambas as análises, com igualdade de resultados dicotômicos em 48,1% dos casos. Assim, o teste de troponina salivar obteve 48% de sensibilidade e 50% de especificidade.

Conclusão: Foi possível identificar troponina I no fluido da saliva de pacientes em vigência de infarte agudo do miocárdio, mas a probabilidade de ela ter resultado falso positivo foi de 50% e de falso negativo de 52%.

Abstract— Brachystele morronei, a new orchid species recently discovered in the central-eastern region of Argentina, is described and illustrated. It is the first known species with nonresupinate flowers of the Pelexia clade, constituting a very
distinctive member of the group. The phylogenetic position of the new taxon was inferred from nuclear ribosomal DNA (ITS) and two plastid DNA regions (matK and trnLF). The combined nuclear and plastid data analyses using Bayesian and parsimony-based methods revealed that B.
morronei is closely related to B. camporum. The geographic distribution and a conservation assessment of the new species are presented. Morphological differences among sympatric Brachystele species are described.
Rhynchospora waytii (Cyperaceae): A New Species with an Intriguing Disjunct Distribution in Brazil and Argentina

Published: March 2024

Abstract— During the first author’s doctoral research, in part developed at the New York Botanical Garden and guided by William Wayt Thomas, several new species of Rhynchospora were discovered when revising NY herbarium specimens. In this study, we describe
and name one of these species as Rhynchospora waytii, in honor of this renowned sedge specialist and friend. Rhynchospora waytii is closely related to R. nanuzae but displays distinguishing characteristics such as broader leaves, inconspicuous rhizomes, and larger
spikelets and stylopodia. It also exhibits a peculiar disjunct distribution, occurring in Brazil and Argentina, which is explored here with models of geographical range evolution and suitable area of occupancy. Our analysis suggests that suitable habitats have historically existed along the
Atlantic coast, extending to the La Plata estuary, near the location where the Argentinian specimens were collected.
Goniopteris ×tico (Thelypteridaceae), a New Hybrid Fern from Costa Rica

Published: March 2024

Abstract— Goniopteris ×tico, a new hybrid fern from La Selva Biological Station in Heredia Province, Costa Rica, is described based on morphology and analysis of target-capture DNA sequence data. The hybrid co-occurs with its two putative
progenitors, Goniopteris mollis and Goniopteris nicaraguensis, and is readily recognizable by its intermediate leaf dissection and venation. It is also intermediate in pinnae size and shape, and presents irregularly lobed pinnae. Despite the broad overlap in the geographic distribution
of its parental taxa, Goniopteris ×tico is only known from two collections from a single area of the La Selva Biological Station, highlighting the importance of close observation of ferns from even well-collected areas.
