Obesity and iron deficiency: what is the connection and how to treat?
Authors: Fedorova T. A. , Strelnikova E. V. , Gurbanova S. R.
Published: November 2024

The article presents a review of the literature and our own data on the etiology and pathogenesis of iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia in patients with obesity. Obesity is considered as a subclinical systemic chronic inflammation, which is associated with an increase in the level of hepcidin, which is a key mediator of anemia during inflammation. Patients with obesity should undergo periodic screening of iron status and ferrokinetic parameters. Today, new oral iron preparations with increased tolerability and improved absorption are used in clinical practice. These include sucrosomial iron preparations. Sucrosomial iron (SI) is an innovative oral iron-containing carrier in which iron pyrophosphate is enclosed in a phospholipid matrix coated with sucrester, which protects sucrosomial iron from the effects of gastric juice, excluding contact with the mucous membrane of the gastrointestinal tract. Resistance to the action of gastric juice allows intact sucrosomes to reach the mucous membrane of the small intestine, where they are absorbed through special M cells, followed by the release of iron in liver cells. This allows prescribing SI to patients with iron deficiency and inflammatory bowel diseases, celiac disease, cancer and patients with obesity. Sucrosomial iron should be considered as an alternative treatment for iron deficiency in obese women. SI is innovative, allowing to bypass the “hepcidin barrier”, convenient for administration, effective for treatment, well tolerated than traditional oral iron salts.

Published: November 2024

Pathological vaginal discharge is one of the main reasons for visiting gynecologists. Despite the abundance of drugs, not all are compliant and quickly effective for pronounced itching and swelling in the introitus area. One of the most common causes of pathological leukemia is vaginal infections, which are represented by three main clinical forms: bacterial vaginosis (BV) – up to 50% of all cases; vulvovaginal candidiasis (CVV) – 20–25% and trichomonas vaginitis (TV) – 15–20% of cases, respectively. In this regard, retrospective analysis shows that patients with BV, KV, TV most often actively turn to a gynecologist or venereologist However, the fact that the cause of pathological whites in more than 30% of cases can be a mixed infection creates problems in treatment with the use of monodrugs (many relapses up to 40% or more). Therefore, for their treatment, it is considered rational to use the concept of the etiotropic approach, based on the local effect of combined vaginal drugs. The role of a combined topical drug, including those with a rapid anesthetic effect, was evaluated. Neo-Penotran Forte L is a logical combination of antibacterial agents and a local anesthetic used to treat manifest forms of vaginal infections and provide rapid relief of intolerable symptoms.

Published: November 2024

Introduction. The results of a number of studies indicate the comorbidity of endometriosis with various diseases, such as uterine fibroids, endometrial cancer, migraine, depression, infertility, bronchial asthma, and stomach diseases.

Aim. Present literature data on the comorbidity of endometriosis and various diseases.

Materials and methods. A review of the literature for 2021–2023 in the databases PubMed (National Library of Medicine), Cochrane Library, CyberLeninka, Medline, as well as in scientific citation databases (Scopus, Web of Science).

Results and discussion. This paper analyzes data on the comorbidity of endometriosis and various diseases such as uterine myoma, endometrial cancer, migraine, depression, infertility, bronchial asthma, and gastric diseases. It was found that the comorbidity of endometriosis and the described diseases is based on common risk factors (early age of menarche, late menopause, absence of childbirth in the anamnesis, chronic inflammatory diseases of the pelvic organs, smoking, chronic stress, exposure to phthalate esters), molecular pathogenetic mechanisms (changes in gene expression, sex hormone levels, aberrant immune response, subclinical inflammatory response, hyperestrogenism, characteristic of both endometriosis and comorbid diseases), as well as genes involved in the development of these diseases. According to the results of full genomic studies, more than 170 polymorphic loci associated with the development of endometriosis and various comorbid diseases have been identified, and a positive correlation between endometriosis and these diseases has been revealed.

Conclusion. These studies dictate the need to take into account in clinical practice the syntropy of endometriosis with other diseases, which, in turn, requires a multidisciplinary approach to the management of patients with endometriosis.

Factorial experiment to identify two-way interactions between temperature, harvesting period, hydraulic retention time, and light intensity that influence the biomass productivity and phosphorus removal efficiency of a microalgae–bacteria biofilm
Authors: Watkins Jacob Dean , Lords Clayton Jack , Bradley Abiela Meek , Cutler David Richard , Sims Ronald Charles
Published: November 2024

Rotating algae biofilm reactors (RABRs) can reduce energy requirements for wastewater reclamation but require further optimization for implementation at water resource recovery facilities (WRRF). Optimizing RABR operation is challenging because conditions at WRRF change frequently, and disregarding interaction terms related to these changes can produce incorrect conclusions about RABR behavior. This study evaluated the two-way interaction and main effects of four factors on the biomass productivity and phosphorus removal efficiency of a microalgae-bacteria biofilm grown in municipal anaerobic digester centrate, with factor levels and operating conditions selected to mimic a pilot RABR at a WRRF in Utah. Two-way interactions harvesting period*light intensity (LI), harvesting period*temperature, and LI*hydraulic retention time (HRT) had significant effects on biomass productivity: at high temperature and low LI, highest biomass productivity was achieved with a 14-day harvesting period, but at medium temperature and high LI, highest biomass productivity was achieved with a 7-day harvesting period. At high HRT, highest biomass productivity occurred at low LI, but at low HRT, highest biomass productivity occurred at high LI. Phosphorus removal was strongly influenced by LI and occurred most rapidly during the first 2 days HRT, which suggests precipitation contributed significantly to phosphorus removal. These observations provide insight for further RABR optimization.

Authors: Grieve Natalie , Braaten Kyra , MacPherson Megan , Liu Sam , Jung Mary E
Published: November 2024

Background

Technology is more likely to be used when it is designed to meet the needs of end users. To supplement the Small Steps for Big Changes diabetes prevention program, a smartphone app was developed in partnership with past Small Steps for Big Changes clientele. Usability testing is critical for the ongoing use and adoption of mobile health apps by providing insight on where appropriate adjustments and improvements need to be made to ensure user satisfaction.

Objective

A focus group with 7 participants was conducted to examine the app’s usability and collect feedback for future iterations.

Methods

Past Small Steps for Big Changes clientele participated in a cognitive walkthrough of 8 novel tasks and completed the System Usability Scale survey. Participants were then given the option to use the app for 3 weeks before completing the User-Mobile Application Rating Scale.

Results

Analysis of the cognitive walkthrough identified 26 usability problems; each was coded using a heuristic evaluation to describe usability errors. The most frequently coded errors included inappropriate progress feedback, information appearing in an illogical order, counterintuitive design, and issues with app aesthetics. A mean summary score of 66.8% (SD 18.91) was reported for the System Usability Scale, representing a marginal acceptability score and indicating that design issues needed to be resolved. A User-Mobile Application Rating Scale mean score of 3.59 (SD 0.33) was reported, implying an average acceptability rating.

Conclusions

These findings identified necessary improvements in the app, ranging from minor aesthetic problems to major functionality problems. Involving end users allows the app to be tailored to the client’s preferences and increases the likelihood of usage. This app aligns with Small Steps for Big Changes’ program components and behavior change techniques that can improve health outcomes for future clients and allow them to self-monitor their exercise, diet, and goals.
Linguistic Validation and Cross-Cultural Adaptation of Shoulder Telehealth Assessment Tool (STAT) for Filipino Patients with Musculoskeletal Shoulder Condition: Cross-Sectional Study (Preprint)
Authors: Arboleda Jeffrey , Leochico Carl Froilan , Ignacio Sharon , Mojica Jose Alvin
Published: November 2024

BACKGROUND

Telerehabilitation has been widely adapted to meet the growing rehabilitation demand, but is often limited by unstable internet connection, poor audiovisual resolution, and difficult virtual assessment. The Shoulder Telehealth Assessment Tool(STAT) was developed to address these limitations.

OBJECTIVE

This study aimed to develop a linguistically valid and culturally appropriate Filipino version of STAT, and to evaluate its content validity, internal consistency, understandability and ease of performing.

METHODS

A cross-sectional study on Filipino STAT was conducted in three phases- 1. linguistic validation by experts, 2. cross-cultural adaptation through pre-testing of 12 participants diagnosed with musculoskeletal shoulder condition in the Philippine General Hospital and 3. pilot study on 47 participants of the same population.

RESULTS

Results: The Filipino STAT has an excellent content validity (scale validity index=0.80-0.97), excellent interrater reliability (Kappa coefficient=0.82-1.00), and good internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha=0.87). Understandability is excellent for pain and activity (98%), good for range of motion(ROM) and special test(85%), and poor for strength(37%). 11 participants found the tool difficult to understand with the use of some Tagalog words as the primary barrier, followed by non-familiarity with the tool, and difficulty reading the text.

CONCLUSIONS

Development of Filipino STAT through a rigorous linguistic validation and cultural adaptation has produced a culturally approriate, valid, and reliable tool. Pain and activity, ROM and special test subdomains are suitable for clinical assessment, while strength subdomain needs further improvement in understandability.
Anomaly Detection Technologies for Monitoring Dementia-Related Behaviors at Home: A Narrative Literature Review (Preprint)
Authors: Lai Joy , Ye Bing , Mihailidis Alex
Published: November 2024

BACKGROUND

Anomaly detection technologies have emerged as valuable tools for monitoring people living with dementia (PLwD) in home environments. These technologies address critical behaviors such as wandering, sleep disturbances, and agitation, which affect both patients and caregivers. Effective monitoring improves safety, supports early diagnosis, and alleviates caregiver stress. However, challenges such as sensor reliability, data accuracy, and privacy concerns hinder optimal use.

OBJECTIVE

This narrative literature review aims to explore the technologies employed for detecting behavioural anomalies in dementia care within home settings. It identifies the types of activities monitored, the sensor technologies used, and the trade-offs between system benefits and limitations.

METHODS

A comprehensive search was conducted across MEDLINE, IEEE Xplore, ACM Digital Library, and Web of Science databases, focusing on English-language studies published from 2000 onward. A total of 1,562 references were identified, with 78 studies selected for the final review after a multi-stage screening process. Thematic analysis was applied to categorize the findings according to activities monitored, detection purposes, sensor technologies, and the impact on caregiver and patient outcomes.

RESULTS

Three key motivations for the use of anomaly detection technologies were identified: (1) early diagnosis and clinical decision support, (2) safety monitoring and intervention, and (3) reduction of caregiver stress and promotion of autonomy for PLwD. Technologies used include GPS tracking, wearables, environmental sensors, and smart home systems. While wearable devices and GPS systems offer real-time alerts, environmental sensors provide non-intrusive monitoring. However, these technologies present limitations, including user compliance challenges, high false-positive rates, and privacy concerns, especially for audio-visual monitoring.

CONCLUSIONS

Anomaly detection technologies provide significant benefits in dementia care by enhancing safety, promoting autonomy, and reducing caregiver burden. However, sensor accuracy, usability, and ethical concerns must be addressed to ensure long-term effectiveness. Future research should focus on refining sensor technologies, integrating AI for personalized interventions, and addressing privacy concerns through non-intrusive designs. By overcoming these challenges, these technologies can better support the well-being of both PLwD and their caregivers, fostering safer, more independent living environments.

Published: November 2024

BACKGROUND

Medical education has evolved to train skilled and reliable professionals, giving great importance to the hidden curriculum and its contribution to medical professionalism and humanism.

OBJECTIVE

To analyze the available evidence on the benefits and adverse effects of the hidden curriculum in medical education.

METHODS

A scoping review of the literature available in the indexed databases PubMed, Scopus, Science Direct and LILACS with MeSH descriptors was conducted on the effects of the hidden curriculum in medical education between 2000 and April 2024. Twenty-six papers were selected for review.

RESULTS

We found studies from 10 countries, mainly descriptive and cross-sectional, which showed that the hidden curriculum has benefits and adverse effects in medical education. These include the transmission of implicit values, and the influence on forming skills and professional identity. It was found that some elements contribute to the integral development of students, and others generate challenges that affect the quality of medical education. Likewise, the need for further research to design of implementation strategies in the different medical schools is described.

CONCLUSIONS

The hidden curriculum proves to have both a positive and negative impact on the attitudes and values of medical students. The need to generate greater awareness and proactive strategies in educational institutions to improve the quality of training and promote the holistic development of future health professionals is highlighted.
Impact of media-induced uncertainty on mental health (Preprint)
Authors: Kesner Ladislav , Juríčková Veronika , Grygarová Dominika , Horáček Jiří
Published: November 2024

UNSTRUCTURED

People worldwide are currently confronted with a number of environmental and socio-political stressors, which act as a potent source of subjective uncertainty. The uncertainty arising in response to volatility and unpredictability of adversities is amplified by their (mis) representation in media news. While the causal effect of media news on vicarious traumatization has been well established, here we argue that the impact of negative media news is principally related to distress and anxiety stemming from the uncertainty-inducing effect of media representations of states of the world.
As a growing body of research suggests, the need to minimize uncertainty related to global stressors is a significant driver of media news use. However, extensive media exposure perpetuates stress and is associated with symptoms of psychopathology. The self-perpetuating vicious circle of worry and excessive media consumption has been amply confirmed by new research related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, attempts to alleviate stress and anxiety stemming from uncertainties often result in maladaptive strategies. In particular, tightening of beliefs and adoption of rigid behavioral patterns may prompt various forms of socially detrimental behavior. Critical factors in prevention and remediation are limiting media overexposure and therapeutic interventions focused on increased tolerance of uncertainty.

Background. The purpose of the study was to investigate the effectiveness of minimally invasive methods, such as laser-induced interstitial thermotherapy (LITT) and its combination with percutaneous ethanol ablation (PEA), in treating toxic thyroid adenomas. To determine the multiplicity of the LITT procedure and parameters of laser radiation to achieve a stable positive therapeutic effect. Materials and methods. Between 2020 and 2024, 24 patients with Plummer's disease who did not receive previous thyrostatic therapy before the LITT session were treated and were divided into 2 groups. Patients of the first group with a predominantly parenchymal structure of the node received LITT monotherapy (16 patients), patients of the second group with an existing cystic component received percutaneous ethanol sclerotherapy followed by LITT (8 patients). Patients underwent ultrasound and hormonal follow-up after laser ablation at 2, 4, and 6 months. Study endpoints: percent nodal volume reduction compared to pretreatment volume (VRR), thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), free thyroxine, free triiodthyronine, TSH-receptor antibodies. Results. All patients had a positive result of treatment. The average nodal volume reduction ratio (VRR) for patients in the first group was 88.3 ± 7.9 % (min — 71.5, max — 95.4), and for patients in the second group — 72 % (min — 59.5, max — 85.4). The percen­tage of patients in whom the euthyroid status was recorded after the first session ranged from 100 % for nodes of smaller volume (up to 4 cm3) to 63 % for nodes of maximum volume (up to 13 cm3). After the completed treatment (the maximum number of LITT sessions — 4), all patients had a stable euthyroid status. The effective specific ener­gy for solid nodules is ≈ 900 J/ml, for mixed cystic-parenchymal nodules the specific energy is lower and ≈ 790 J/ml (for the volume of the nodule after PEA). Complications: one case of bleeding was recorded, and a moderate pain syndrome: 6 points on the Visual Analog scale. Conclusions. Laser thermal ablation of toxic thyroid adenomas under ultrasound guidance offers an additional safe and effective minimally invasive treatment option. Reduction of solid thyroid nodules is effective over time if the specific energy exceeds 900 J/ml (for the primary nodule volume). The reduction of mixed cystic-parenchymal nodules is effective under the condition of the effectiveness of ethanol, the specific energy for such nodules is less than ≈ 790 J/ml (for the volume of the nodule after PEA). The total energy for the course of treatment should not be less than the calculated (Е∑ ≈ Espec × Vnode). Clinical outcomes are significantly more favorable in small toxic adenomas than in large nodes

Abstract: This study investigates the performance characteristics of asphalt mixes used in roadway construction, focusing on their durability, resistance to deformation, and overall mechanical properties The concentration of bitumen in a Marshall mix sample significantly impacts the performance and durability of the asphalt mixture. Bitumen, also known as asphalt binder or asphalt cement, is a binding agent that holds mineral aggregate together. The optimum bitumen content is typically 4-6% by weight, with a 5% concentration resulting in a strong, durable mix with good workability, compatibility, resistance to rutting and fatigue cracking, and resistance to moisture damage and environmental stresses. Higher Marshall Stability values indicate stronger asphalt mix, while higher CBR values indicate stronger subgrade or base material. Both factors ensure road structure strength and stability

Published: November 2024

The rapid development of Islam in the world cannot be separated from the role of the international language. Islam, a Rahmatan lil 'Alamin religion, has a negative stigma in the international world. Millennials are young people who are very attached to information technology. Therefore, this paper aims to examine the voice of millennials more deeply toward the role of English in the spread of Islam Rahmatan lil 'Alamin values full of affection and peace. This study is qualitative research with a phenomenological approach. The data were collected by conducting semi-structured interviews. The results showed that millennials' voices toward the role of language are: ease of communication, medium of communication, and ease the information access. Then, millennials' voices toward the role of English in the spread of Islam Rahmatan lil 'Alamin values are: ease the convey Islam Rahmatan lil 'Alamin values through various fields, expand the reach of areas and targets in the spread of the values, ease in obtaining information about the spread of the values which can be accessed on the internet, supports efforts to straighten out the negative stigma directed at Islam and ease capturing messages about the values from various sources.  The research implications suggest that leveraging English as a medium can significantly enhance the dissemination of Islam's values of compassion and peace among global audiences, particularly through digital platforms, thereby fostering greater understanding and reducing negative stereotypes associated with Islam.

Pandemia E Direitos Humanos: A Administração Da Vida E Da Morte No Brasil
Authors: Wermuth Maiquel Ângelo Dezordi , De Castro André Giovane
Published: November 2024

A pandemia de Covid-19 desafia o Estado e a sociedade com reflexos nos direitos humanos. O enfrentamento à crise sanitária mundial encontra vários obstáculos no Brasil. Ao revisitar os conceitos de biopolítica em Michel Foucault e necropolítica em Achille Mbembe, problematiza-se a reorientação da bússola autoritária e democrática da história nacional com a atuação da Presidência da República frente à vida e à morte dos cidadãos. A hipótese, ao fim do estudo corroborada a título de conclusão, constata a assunção do novo coronavírus como intensificadora da conversão democrática em direção ao autoritarismo ao revelar no Palácio do Planalto a desconsideração com a necessidade de unir esforços e a dicotomização de vida versus economia com o resultado de morte, evidenciando, com efeito, a violação de direitos humanos. O texto encontra-se estruturado em duas seções e objetiva, respectivamente: a) analisar o Brasil atual à luz do ciclo autoritário e democrático da história nacional; e b) refletir a atuação da Presidência da República com a instrumentalização da vida e da morte frente à aludida crise sanitária. O método fenomenológico-hermenêutico, a abordagem qualitativa, a técnica exploratória e os procedimentos bibliográfico e documental constituem a metodologia.
A Prisão Em Segunda Instância: Uma Insegurança Jurídica Que Persiste
Authors: Facchi Junior Edson Luiz , Peixoto de Souza André
Published: November 2024

O presente trabalho visa discutir a execução imediata da pena em segunda instância, analisando o julgamento das Ações Diretas de Constitucionalidade 43, 44 e 54. Pelo julgamento, o réu somente poderá cumprir a pena quando esgotados todos meios impugnativos, modificando, mais uma vez, o entendimento anterior, de 2016, que previa a possibilidade de se executar a reprimenda após a condenação em segunda instância. A Constituição Federal estabelece como cláusula pétrea o princípio da presunção de inocência em seu artigo 5º, inciso LVII, no qual a prisão apenas é possível após o trânsito em julgado da sentença penal condenatória. Através também de pesquisa bibliográfica e do método indutivo, analisar-se-á o estudo do tema aliado a uma insegurança jurídica que as não raras mudanças de entendimento por parte do STF trazem ao ordenamento jurídico. A análise inicia-se pelo sistema processual penal atual, prosseguindo pelo princípio da presunção de inocência. Ainda, o artigo traz a discussão sobre a execução imediata da pena no Tribunal do Júri, por força da nova Lei nº 13.964/2019. Por fim, busca analisar o julgamento das ADC’s 43, 44 e 54, que alterou, por último, o entendimento do STF, julgando constitucional o artigo 283 do Código de Processo Penal.

Noite na taverna e o sublime no Romantismo
Authors: Costa Ana Carolina Pereira da , Fernandes Geraldo Augusto
Published: November 2024

Noite na Taverna (1855) aborda, no conjunto das curtas narrativas relacionadas, temas macabros e soturnos sob a meia-luz em uma reunião entre amigos regada a vinho. Sobre essa obra, detivemos nosso olhar na narrativa de Bertram e seus conflitos amorosos, norteando-nos por Georg Simmel (2001), Erich Fromm (1971) e André Capelão (2019) a respeito do amor, propondo paralelos com autores referenciados nas obras de Azevedo, a saber: John Milton e seu cenário sublime de Céu e Inferno; Dante Alighieri e os luxuriosos presentes no segundo ciclo do Inferno. Objetivou-se a leitura e análise da narrativa com base nas concepções de Edmund Burke (2014) sobre o belo e principalmente o sublime, mediante as outras observações teóricas mencionadas, bem como as leituras comparativas. Observou-se que o sublime presente na obra de Azevedo tanto é propiciado pelas sensações de vastidão da natureza quanto pelo deleite em contato com o horrível.

Published: November 2024

O objetivo do presente artigo é viabilizar uma reflexão em torno da perversão em sua relação com as manifestações da violência/criminalidade, de modo a favorecer uma observação do fenômeno da perversão para além do seu aspecto exclusivamente estrutural, demonstrando-o como um mecanismo amplo, o qual se relaciona intrinsecamente com a cultura, sobretudo enquanto sintoma social, haja vista não operar apenas no âmbito particular de cada indivíduo, mas também enquanto expressão social. Tendo como baldrame teórico a perspectiva psicanalítica, que compreende a perversão como uma expressão da subjetividade humana, buscaremos analisar os porquês dos atos de violência impetrados pelo protagonista do conto O cobrador, do escritor Rubem Fonseca, de modo a demonstrar como seus personagens proporcionam um vislumbre da violência como forma de recusa da castração, de resposta ao mal-estar que opera sobre todos nós, mas de forma mais flageladora em relação àqueles que se encontram à margem no cenário social.
documentário nacional frente ao conceito social da deficiência
Authors: Bonfim Junior Almir , Batista Freitas Cardoso João
Published: November 2024

O artigo tem como principal objetivo verificar se os discursos empregados nos documentários nacionais que apresentam protagonistas com deficiência se alinham aos ideais mobilizadores dos movimentos sociais ligados aos direitos das pessoas com deficiência. Para isso são utilizadas as categorias estabelecidas por Hayes e Black (2003) para analisar um corpus de quatro documentários produzidos no século XXI. Percebe-se que, ao centrarem-se em limitações corpóreas de maneira individualizada, os documentários acabam por restringir as possibilidades de representações a estereótipos.

Na trilha epistemológica dos Estudos Culturais (HALL, 2004; 2016) uma ficção do gênero terror torna-se eixo para compreensão e análise da concepção de intolerância religiosa. Trata-se da minissérie americana Midnight Mass (Missa da Meia-Noite) cujas condições de representação, apropriação, intencionalidades e disputas simbólicas aproximam o imaginário popular e os arquétipos religiosos permitindo reflexões sobre preconceitos, estigmas e tensionamentos que afetam as crenças minoritárias no nosso país, especialmente as de matrizes africanas. A partir dessa problematização, o raciocínio empreendido busca corroborar o extraordinário poder que as histórias inventadas para a TV adquirem na construção de verossimilhança como fontes imersivas de intertextualidades, pluralidade de vozes e produção de sentidos.

Helhetsskapande arbetssätt där exempelvis omsorg, fostran och undervisning samverkar har ett starkt fotfäste inom nordisk småbarnspedagogik. Detta holistiska arbetssätt märks för Finlands del i att olika varianter av ordet helhet används flitigt i styrdokumenten. Studiens syfte är att analysera textsekvenser som innehåller formuleringar med helhet i de tre finländska småbarnspedagogiska styrdokumenten. Dessutom diskuterar vi hur utbildningen av lärare inom småbarnspedagogik kan tydliggöra dessa helheter för studenterna. Studien har en kvalitativ ansats och med hjälp av tematisk analys har teman som beskriver innebörder i de olika helheterna identifierats. Resultaten visar att det finns en stor variation i vad som förutsätts bilda helheter och att lärarna till exempel förväntas skapa helheter både inom den egna undervisningen och mellan de olika stadierna. Slutsatser av studien är att lärarutbildningen behöver erbjuda studenterna både ämnesdidaktiska kunskaper och integrativa pedagogiska kunskaper. Vi föreslår bland annat att en taxonomi eller modell speciellt utarbetad för småbarnspedagogiken kunde åskådliggöra olika typer av samspel. Vidare kan lärarutbildningens kurser organiseras så att integrering av olika ämnesområden blir en naturlig del av kurserna.
English abstract
Entities in Finnish ECEC Core Curricula – A Main Point or A Main Concern in Teacher Education
Holistic approaches are prominent in Nordic early childhood education and care (ECEC). In Finland, various uses of the word helhet (Eng. entity) in the national core curricula underline these approaches. This study aims to analyse text sequences that use helhet in the three core curricula for early childhood education and care. In addition, we discuss how the ECEC teacher education can clarify these entities. Through a qualitative and thematical analysis, we identified several themes. The results show that there is great variety in what these entities entail and that the teachers for example should pay attention to the holistic approach in their teaching and when cooperating with the other stages of education. In conclusion, the teacher education needs to offer students both pedagogical subject knowledge and integrative pedagogical knowledge. We suggest that a taxonomy or model designed for ECEC could clarify and illustrate different kinds of integration. Further, we also suggest that the teacher education program should be organised in ways that make integrating different subjects and content areas a natural part of the education.
Aesthetic Learning Spaces: An Investigation into the Status in Danish Early Childhood Teacher Education
Authors: Boysen Mikkel Snorre Wilms
Published: November 2024

The aim of this article is to delve into and discuss the past and present conditions of aesthetic learning spaces in the Early Childhood Teacher Education (ECTE) program in Denmark, and how these conditions impact its learning environment. The investigation encompasses a variety of data sources and research methods aimed at capturing both the intricate and broader aspects of the focal question. The investigation includes (1) a discussion of educational reforms and how they affect aesthetic learning spaces, (2) a discourse analysis examining the descriptions of new iterations of aesthetic learning spaces, including makerspaces and playlabs, and (3) qualitative interviews with students and educators conducted during a building workshop. The study’s key discovery is that aesthetic learning spaces in ECTE have undergone a shift, becoming spaces that emphasize generic skills and academic abilities, as opposed to domain-specific tools and techniques. In the article, this transformation is connected to broader societal trends and analyzed through the lenses of sociological, educational and creativity theories, drawing upon the work of scholars such as Richard Sennett, Lene Tanggaard and John Krejsler. At the article’s conclusion, future topics for study are suggested.

Os processos de globalização do capital, da cultura, da política e economia, aliados aos avanços tecnológicos e informáticos, nos remetem a novos momentos, onde a velocidade na renovação da informação e do conhecimentoapresenta uma nova concepção no mundo do trabalho. Neste novo momento, onde a busca pela informação transpassa os limites entre o novo e o velho, entre o atual e o antigo, entre o hoje e o amanhã, o passado e o presente se misturam rapidamente e já não temos mais a percepção exata daquilo que é atual, pois aprendemos hoje e amanhã já se torna obsoleto.Analisar as relações dos processos de informação na área da gestão institucional a partir de uma base epistemológica voltada para a Ciência da Informação. Estudo de natureza qualitativa elaborado por meio de uma revisão de literatura realizada no Portal de Periódicos da CAPES, envolvendo as temáticas “ciência da informação”, “gestão”, “informação” e “gestão da informação”.Buscou-se dividir o trabalho em perspectivas que nos permitam identificar e conceituar a informação a partir de suas particularidades e correntes interdisciplinarese como esta informação pode contribuir para a gestão institucional, a partir de perspectivas que permitam identificar e conceituar a informação a partir de suas particularidades, ou seja, pela via da análise sistêmica, da interdisciplinaridade e da comunicação.Buscamos por meio destas reflexões, elucidar algumas definições sobre a Ciência da Informação e seus processos correlatos, buscando uma conexão com a gestão, e como essa ciência interdisciplinar pode contribuir para que as empresas consigam atingir seus melhores desempenhos.

Introdução: Conhecer a interação entre tuberculose e o uso de drogas ilícitas é crucial para entender os múltiplos fatores sociais, econômicos e comportamentais que ampliam a vulnerabilidade à tuberculose entre os usuários de drogas e a sua disseminação nas comunidades. Compreender essa relação é essencial para o desenvolvimento de intervenções mais abrangentes e eficazes. Objetivo: Caracterizar a prevalência e o perfil dos casos de tuberculose em indivíduos que fazem uso de drogas ilícitas em um município no sudeste mato-grossense. Método: Estudo do tipo epidemiológico, descritivo e retrospectivo, realizado com dados secundários da Vigilância Epidemiológica de Rondonópolis, Mato Grosso, de março de 2020 a março de 2023. Foram incluídos todos os casos notificados de tuberculose e que usaram drogas ilícitas, por meio de variáveis sociodemográficas, clínicas e condições associadas e população vulnerável, e excluídos os casos em branco e/ou ignorados. Foi realizada análise descritiva utilizando frequências absolutas e relativas e auxílio do software R. Pesquisa aprovada pelo Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa (Parecer: 6.130.934). Resultados: No período de estudo, foram registrados 315 casos de tuberculose, sendo que 44 (13,97%) consumiam droga ilícita. O perfil destes casos foi: sexo masculino (90,9%), 21 a 30 anos (34,1%), pardos (68,19%), ensino fundamental incompleto (52,28%), casos novos (79,54%), forma pulmonar (95,46%), radiografia de tórax suspeito (81,81%), abandono do tratamento (31,82%), consumo de álcool (52,28%) e tabagistas (77,28%). Conclusão: Os resultados do presente estudo permitiram concluir que a amostra apresentou vulnerabilidade entre os pacientes portadores de TB e que faziam o consumo de drogas ilícitas.

Body scrub adalah salah satu produk kosmetik dengan bahan agak kasar yang digunakan untuk merawat, membersihkan kotoran kulit, dan mengangkat sel kulit mati. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui karakteristik uji stabilitas fisik body scrub kombinasi ekstrak kulit jeruk bali (Citrus maxima Merr.)  dengan cangkang telur ayam serta mengetahui sediaan tersebut tidak mengiritasi kulit. Body scrub dibuat empat formulasi yang meliputi F0 (tanpa ekstrak), FI (ekstrak 15%), FII (ekstrak 12,5%) dan FIII (ekstrak 10%). Hasil dari penelitian uji fisik menunjukan bahwa uji organoleptis, uji pH, uji homogenitas, uji daya sebar dan uji daya lekat memenuhi syarat, sedangkan pada uji tipe emulsi F0 menunjukan A/M (air dalam minyak) dan pada FI, FII dan FIII menunjukan M/A (minyak dalam air). Kemudian hasil dari uji stabilitas menggunakan metode cycling test F0, FI, FII dan FIII tidak menunjukan adanya pemisahan antara fase minyak dan fase air serta pH stabil selama 6 siklus. Setelah dilakukan uji iritasi hasil dari F0, FI, FII dan FIII tidak menimbulkan iritasi sehingga sediaan aman digunakan pada kulit manusia. Data yang diperoleh dianalisis dengan menggunakan One Way Anova pada program SPSS 29.
