Aneurismas da artéria lenticuloestriada: uma revisão sistemática
Authors: Silva Ana Clara da Costa , Baptista Millena Amélia Fontes , Nascimento Victor de Souza
Published: July 2024

Introdução: Aneurismas cerebrais são dilatações anormais dos vasos que aumentam o risco de rotura e consequente hemorragia subaracnoidea; as artérias lenticuloestriadas (ALE), também chamadas artérias centrais anteromediais, são ramos da artéria cerebral média e parte fundamental da irrigação encefálica. Objetivo: uma revisão sistematizada acerca desse acometimento do sistema nervoso central, que impacta a vida dos pacientes e é tema de estudo dentro da medicina atual. Materiais/sujeitos e métodos: Este trabalho parte de um estudo bibliográfico, realizado através de um levantamento nas bases de dados Google Acadêmico e SciELO, além de livros, textos de neurologia, visando entender a potencial gravidade da ruptura dos aneurismas intracranianos, bem como entender a epidemiologia clínica desta patologia. Resultados e discussão: O lobo da ínsula fica “escondido” pela sobreposição dos lobos frontal, parietal e temporal. Para alcançá-lo, pode-se realizar as abordagens transsilviana ou transcortical. Ocorre que ao chegar na ínsula, visualiza-se significativa ramificação constituída pelas artérias lenticuloestriadas, cuja manipulação pode determinar déficit neurológico e, se aprofundar no córtex insular, depara-se com outras estruturas tão importantes quanto a própria ínsula. O conhecimento anatômico das artérias lenticuloestriadas e suas relações é de fundamental importância para a ressecção do glioma insular, pois comprometimento delas e da artéria cerebral média podem determinar a isquemia dos núcleos da base e da cápsula interna. O tratamento dos gliomas insulares permanece como grande desafio. Devido sua localização e possibilidade de desenvolvimento de déficits neurológicos na manipulação cirúrgica é necessário não somente conhecer sua localização topográfica, mas também íntima relação vascular com artérias lenticuloestriadas. Considerações finais:  Identificar lacunas no conhecimento e sugerir áreas para futuras pesquisas é essencial. Estudos adicionais são necessários para melhorar a compreensão dos mecanismos subjacentes aos aneurismas lenticuloestriados e para desenvolver abordagens terapêuticas mais eficazes e menos invasivas.

A tentativa do épico en Gaú-Chê-Rama-Ura, de Zulmiro Lermen: uma narrativa da história do Rio Grande do Sul
Authors: Lima Letícia
Published: July 2024

Este artigo apresenta um recorte da dissertação de mestrado intitulada Gaú-chê-rama-ura: mito e imaginário no épico de Zulmiro Lino Lermen e objetiva investigar em que medida esse poema, ao incorporar elementos do imaginário social sul-rio-grandense e o mito do gaúcho herói e estabelecendo diálogos com a tradição da literatura gaúcha e com grandes nomes da épica ocidental, se constitui, em matéria e estrutura, como um poema épico. Para tanto, dividi-se em três capítulos, que tratam, respectivamente, de breves considerações sobre o gênero épico, da estrutura interna e externa do poema e, finalmente, da tentativa do épico, abordando o mito e do imaginário gaúchos representados na obra. O autor, que escreveu sua obra no final dos anos 1960, tematiza a história do Rio Grande do Sul a partir de uma perspectiva épica, remontando aos moldes das epopeias clássicas, bem como seguindo um caminho já trilhado pelo regionalismo romântico, de onde sobressai a valorização do homem, da terra e da cultura gaúchos. Estabelece-se um diálogo interdisciplinar entre Literatura e História, tomando-se como suporte teórico discussões sobre o épico, sobre a história da literatura sul-rio-grandense e sobre o mito do gaúcho herói, bem como sobre a estrutura interna e externa do poema. Os resultados apontam para a constituição do poema como um épico que corrobora a permanência do mito do gaúcho herói no imaginário e na literatura sulinos.

Este artigo faz parte de um conjunto de estudos de doutoramento – in fieri – sobre a importância da literatura e das interartes para a manutenção dos ambientes democráticos. Assim, apresenta-se aqui uma análise comparativa, na qual são destacados os pontos de contato entre as linguagens literária e fílmica, com principal foco nas representações dos fatos históricos e da política atravessadamente aos personagens saramaguianos, em O ano da morte de Ricardo Reis (1984), e nas refigurações destes para o cinema, em sua adaptação homônima (2020), sob a direção de João Botelho. Através dessa leitura intersemiótica, também se acrescentam tensionalidades entre as narrativas pósmodernas e o prisma das narrativas épicas, numa aproximação teórica que denominamos como novos elos épicos.
The Temperature-Dependent XAFS Debye-Waller Factor of Molybdenum Metal Calculated using Anharmonic Correlated Einstein Model
Authors: Hiep Trinh Phi ,   Department of Education, Tan Trao University, Tuyen Quang, Vietnam
Published: July 2024

Temperature-dependent X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) Debye-Waller (DW) factor of molybdenum (Mo) metal has been studied under the influence of thermal disorders. This factor is calculated in simple and explicit forms using the classical anharmonic correlated Einstein (CACE) model, which is developed from the correlated Einstein model based on the anharmonic effective potential and the classical statistical theory. The numerical results of Mo in the temperature range from 0 to 800 K are in good agreement with those obtained by the other theoretical models and experiments at several temperatures. The analytical results show that the CACE model is suitable for analyzing the experimental XAFS DW factor of Mo from above the correlated Einstein temperature to before the melting temperature.

Published: July 2024

The compliance of MSME taxpayers can contribute to state revenue. The government has carried out tax socialization and audits to foster compliance of MSME taxpayers. The population of this study is 10,670 taxpayers of MSME bodies; the size of the research sample is 85, with qualifications representing the region of 5 cities with the highest GDP in the East Java region. The sampling technique uses simple random sampling. The results of tax socialization research affect restaurant taxpayer compliance. The concept of socialization carried out with a personality approach to taxpayers, impacts the accuracy of taxpayers in paying taxes. Tax audits affect taxpayer compliance and encourage taxpayer discipline to pay taxes. This tax audit increases taxpayer confidence so that it is orderly in paying taxes. Tax socialization and audits influence 81% of taxpayer compliance. Other variables that can be tested for the development of this research are the quality of fiscal services, tax sanctions, and taxpayers' tax knowledge. These findings show empirically that combining socialization and comprehensive tax audits can result in taxpayer compliance. This result can be the basis for policies from government agencies to focus more on the concept of socialization that provides convenience for taxpayers and tax audits with the use of technology.

Authors: Naheed Fatima  , M. Sridevi
Published: July 2024

Sign language, an important means of communication for the hearing impaired, often encounters barriers when interacting with non-signing people. Our "Sign-Link" aims to bridge this gap by seamlessly integrating audio and text communication with American Sign Language (ASL) through advanced hand gesture recognition technology. By utilizing state-of-the-art techniques, our project facilitates the conversion of multilingual audio input into text or translates text into ASL sign language animations with English dubbed voices. By using a convolutional neural network (CNN), our system accurately identifies and reads aloud the hand gestures enabling real-time recognition and interpretation whose accuracy ranges between 98% to 100% percent respectively. This innovative approach not only improves accessibility and inclusion, but also promotes meaningful communication between people, regardless of their hearing abilities.
An Investigative Study into Predictive Modeling for Early Detection of Eye Disorders: Challenges, Strategies and Mitigations
Authors: Ms. Vaishali Kale  , Dr. Kavita Surawanshi
Published: July 2024

Eye disorders pose significant health challenges globally, affecting millions of individuals. Early detection is crucial for timely intervention and improved outcomes [1]. Our research investigates predictive modeling techniques to identify eye diseases at an early stage. We explore the impact of unique patient identifiers (Patient_ID), age (P_Age), and gender (P_Gender) on eye health. Understanding these factors is essential for personalized care and risk assessment. The study aims to bridge the gap between clinical practice and data-driven approaches, emphasizing the importance of accurate predictions for disease severity. To address our research objectives, we employ machine learning algorithms and statistical techniques. We leverage diagnostic information from both eyes using Left_Diagnostic_Keywords and Right_Diagnostic_Keywords. These keywords capture specific eye conditions, including glaucoma (G), cataracts (C), age-related macular degeneration (A), hypertensive retinopathy (H), macular edema (M), and optic neuritis (O). Our methodology integrates feature engineering, model selection, and cross-validation. We explore the trade-offs between sensitivity, specificity, and interpretability. Our findings reveal promising predictive capabilities for early detection. We examine machine learning algorithms to classify retinal images for glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, and normal eyes, stressing the need for early detection. In our study, we compare the effectiveness of various machine learning methods. KNN proves to be the most effective for the given dataset. We focus on feature importance, analyzing attributes such as age, gender, diagnostic keywords, vision clarity, and specific conditions like glaucoma and cataracts to identify key predictors of eye diseases. By embracing data-driven insights,[2] we empower healthcare professionals to enhance patient outcomes and reduce the burden of eye diseases.

AN APPRASAIL OF THE UNITY OF THE CHURCHES AND ITS RELEVANCE IN CONTEMPORARY SOCIETY FOR NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT
Authors: Mensah Peter Addai-
Published: July 2024

Jesus came into the world mainly to proclaim the Reign/Kingdom of God - cf. Mk. 1: 14 - 15. This Reign of God is a mystery. It is beyond human comprehension and understanding. To help us to understand the mysterious nature of the Reign of God, Jesus used images and parables to depict and teach about the inner dynamics of the Reign of God - cf. Matt. 13: 1 ff. According to Jesus, no human being can bring about the Reign of God. It is God who initiates and brings it about. In the course of his ministry, he got some followers who later on grew into the Church. After staying with them, forming them for some time, he sent them on mission. The mission was very specific - to preach about the Reign of God - cf. Matt. 10:1-25. In this article the author discusses among other things: Jesus on unity among his disciples: Unity in the Early church in the Acts of the Apostles: Division in the cause of the History of the Church: The Church and National Development and Efforts towards Unity among the Churches. In this article the author does not use either the qualitative or the quantitative or the mixed methods.  Instead the literary approach is used.  In other words, library sources are used.
The Role of Palestinian Plastic Art in Keeping Up With the Palestinian Struggle
Authors: Alabadla Ali , IRAK Medine
Published: July 2024

As long as there is injustice and oppression to man, there was an urgent need for the oppressed person to seek a way to express the injustice he suffered, to try to remove this injustice from himself, for the warrior to come to the fields of struggle with his weapons and to start writing the history of the poet, writer and thinker. Historical storytelling is used to record some important historical events in the life of the Palestinian people. The descriptive and analytical method was also used in some Palestinian artworks to show Palestinian reality at the stages of its struggle.People who struggle to achieve their freedom and allow the artist to embody this pain in order to reveal the crimes of the invader and paint a bright picture for a better tomorrow. This was the reality of the Palestinian artist struggling side by side with all sections of his society, so this study aims to examine the role of art in the march of the Palestinian struggle, as it is more relevant to the reality of Palestine under occupation (Al Qasem, 1998).

Authors: Dwamenah AnÃºm
Published: July 2024

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to establish the influence of religiosity among Christian high school students in West Africa. 
Methodology: The study adopted a desktop methodology. Desk research refers to secondary data or that which can be collected without fieldwork. Desk research is basically involved in collecting data from existing resources hence it is often considered a low-cost technique as compared to field research, as the main cost is involved in executive's time, telephone charges and directories. Thus, the study relied on already published studies, reports and statistics. This secondary data was easily accessed through the online journals and library.
Results: The results revealed that there exist conceptual and contextual gaps relating to the study on the influence of religiosity among Christian high school students in West Africa.  Preliminary empirical review reveals that 40% of the students had had sex, 58% of whom did not use a condom. The study also found no relationship between religiosity and sexual behaviour of high school students (r=-.322, p>.05). A majority (94.7%) of the students felt that counselling was appropriate in addressing sexual behaviour among them.
Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Holton's conflict management model, human need theory and reconciliation theory may be used to anchor Christian students' sexual behaviour and religious beliefs. This study's findings may provide insight on the importance of religion in encouraging sexually responsible behavior in young people. The results may suggest that religious adolescence programs are a viable option for guiding young people's sexual behavior. Researchers hope their findings may inspire new approaches to adolescent sexuality counseling that draw on religious belief systems as a resource. The findings of this research could be used by religious authorities to develop programs aimed at teen sexuality in religious settings.

Authors: Rodrigues Paula Rayssa , De Faria Gabriel Santiago , Silvério Alessandra Cristina Pupin
Published: July 2024

As doenças cardiovasculares são responsáveis por quase metade de todas as mortes em todo o mundo, sendo, portanto, as causas mais comuns de óbito e, por isso, deve-se atentar a esse tipo de manifestação clínica, posto que cerca de 10% dos pacientes que relatam dor torácica ao chegarem ao pronto-socorro são diagnosticados com infarto agudo do miocárdio (IAM). Objetivo: Este estudo teve como objetivo analisar os principais biomarcadores prévios do infarto agudo do miocárdio, a fim de evidenciar o melhor diagnóstico deste quadro emergencial. Metodologia: Trata-se de uma Revisão de Literatura Descritiva, realizada por meio do banco de dados do Portal da Capes. Os descritores utilizados foram: [hypertensive adult] AND [new biomarkers] AND [sensitivity] OR [specificity] AND [early diagnosis] AND [acute myocardial infarction]. Resultado: A troponina precisa de repetidas dosagens para um diagnóstico conciso; a CK-MB apresentou sensibilidade próxima a 40% e especificidade de 90%; a copeptina atinge o pico plasmático em 0 a 1 hora depois do início dos sintomas. O miRNA apresentou especificidade de 82% e sensibilidade de 78%. A mioglobina apresentou baixa especificidade e alta sensibilidade, o que não é favorável ao bom diagnóstico. Os neutrófilos e plasmócitos migram para a área isquêmica. A albumina e o H-FABP apresentaram alta sensibilidade e especificidade. Conclusão: Os marcadores bioquímicos do infarto analisados nesta revisão, troponina, CK-MB, copeptina, miRNA, H-FABP, Myo, neutrófilos e plasmócitos, e albumina, não obtiveram um excelente parâmetro no diagnóstico quando analisados separadamente porém, observou-se que a correlação dos indicadores melhora o prognóstico do IAM.

Early 18th c.’ The manuscript provides details of tenants, townlands, which were mainly in the Parishes of Aghaboe, Offerlane, and Rathdowney, land areas, and terms and conditions of the leases, which often included covenants to make improvements. The catalogue title of the rental roll is not fully accurate. While the roll does pertain to some of the Co. Laois estate lands in the possession of Richard Fitzpatrick (later Lord Gowran), there are also entries for his older brother, Edward. The pair achieved notability, primarily for their military service under William III. Also, the rental is from the late seventeenth, not the early eighteenth century.

Dismiccoccus brevipes (Cockerell) (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae) es una de las plagas de mayor importancia de la piña a nivel mundial, no solo por los daños directos que ocasiona, si no por ser trasmisor del virus marchitez roja de la piña. Los hongos entomopatógenos son una alternativa para el manejo de este insecto.  En un experimento preliminar se evaluó la patogenicidad y virulencia de dos aislamientos de Beauveria bassiana (BbCT, BbCa) y uno de Metarhizium anisopliae (Ma),  sobre la mortalidad de hembras adultas de D. brevipes. Posteriormente, los aislamientos más virulentos y una cepa comercial de Paecelomyces fumosoroceus (PAE-SIN), fueron evaluados en otro experimento en condiciones de laboratorio e invernadero, solos o en combinación con aceite de soya y aceite de neem. Todos los aislamientos evaluados presentan diferente grado de patogenicidad; sin embargo, B. bassiana resultó ser el más patogénico. El aislamiento BbCa a una concentración inicial de 1×107 conidios mL-1 fue más efectivo contra adultos de D. brevipes comparado al control, causando mortalidad del 66% ± 6% a los 8 días pos inoculación a 26 ± 1°C. BbCa presentó la mayor virulencia con una CL50, de 3.45x107 conidios mL-1 y una CL95 de 2.29x108 conidios mL-1, bajo condiciones controladas. Sin embargo, la eficacia se incrementó para BbCa, cuando se combinó con aceite de neem, al causar el 100 % de mortalidad a los 6 días pos inoculación.
Highlights:

The lethal effects ofisolatesofBeauveria bassiana, Metarhizium anisopliae (Ma) and Paecilomyces fumosoroceus against adult female of brevipes were evaluated both laboratory and greenhouse conditions.
All entomopathogenic fungi tested in this research kill adult females brevipes.
Isolates of bassina were the most virulent against adult females D. brevipes.
 Combination of neem oil with entomopathogenic fungi are analternative management tool for this pest.

Climate change is reducing forage availability for ruminants. Previous studies in Northern Patagonia, Argentina, have demonstrated the adaptation of the amaranth crop to these agroclimatic conditions under irrigation. Moreover, this crop is used as forage in marginal areas of the world, given its outstanding productive and nutritional qualities. The objective of this study was to evaluate the nutritional quality of amaranth silage in response to previous wilting and the addition of lactic acid bacteria. The crop was harvested at the milky grain stage and ensiled in experimental microsilos for 60 days. Before ensiling, different treatments (wilting and addition of lactic acid bacteria) were applied. Parameters related to nutritional quality were evaluated, including ash, crude protein (CP), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), acid detergent fiber (ADF), dry matter digestibility (DMD), and metabolizable energy (ME). Simultaneous treatment with air and the addition of lactic acid bacteria before ensiling resulted in the best nutritional quality  characteristics of the silage. The most significant results were protein value of 12.7%, 41.1% NDF and 19.1% FDA. The DM and ME were 74% and 2.67 Mcal/kg, respectively. Thus, amaranth silage can be considered an alternative conserved forage for animal feed in this region.
Highlights:

Amaranth crops as a resilient forage option for regions facing climatic challenges such as northern Patagonia, Argentina.

The dry matter reduction of the ensiled plant material was <1% and the high protein content of amaranth did not affect the ensiling process.

Simultaneous treatment such as wilting and addition of lactic acid bacteria to the plant material prior to ensiling resulted in the best nutritional quality characteristics of the silage obtained.

A synergistic effect was observed among the treatments evaluated, achieving a silage with a digestibility of 74.02% comparable to that of corn silage.
