Authors: Turek Piotr
Published: July 2024

W artykule scharakteryzowano współczesne wyzwania dla komunikacji banku centralnego w zakresie inflacji, bezrobocia oraz wzrostu gospodarczego. Wyzwania omówiono, skupiając się na procesie cyfryzacji mediów w szczególnym okresie występowania szoków podażowych. Najistotniejsze kwestie komunikacji banku centralnego w latach 2020–2023 wiążą się ze społecznymi i ekonomicznymi następstwami pandemii oraz wojny w Ukrainie. W tym czasie kluczowy stał się przekaz kształtujący oczekiwania inflacyjne, płynący przede wszystkim ze strony Prezesa Narodowego Banku Polskiego oraz członków Rady Polityki Pieniężnej. Zmiany w przekazie medialnym banków centralnych są jednym z symptomów dokonującej się rewolucji cyfrowej wywołanej postępem technologicznym, m.in. upowszechnieniem urządzeń mobilnych oraz wzrostem popularności mediów społecznościowych.
Regulatory capital, default risk and efficiency: a comparative analysis between Islamic and conventional banks in the MENA region
Authors: Bakour Amal
Published: July 2024

The main objective of this article is to study the effect of the regulatory environment on the behaviour of Islamic and conventional banks in 10 countries in the MENA region regarding the level of capital, the risk of default and banking efficiency. In other words, we seek to show the importance of the conventional and Islamic banking system in MENA countries and to assess the efficiency of these banks under the pressure of prudential regulations through a comparative analysis. Our results show that the riskiest banks are those with a high level of capital. Furthermore, the results suggest that the most profitable banks in the MENA region tend to increase their level of risk. We also find that a higher capital requirement encourages banks to take a higher risk with higher profitability.

This article, based on doctrinal and jurisprudential studies, seeks to make an analysis of the admissibility of the psychographed letter as a means of evidence in the Brazilian criminal process, considering the various aspects to ensure the integrity of this type of document. And as specific objectives: to specify the types of evidence in the criminal field; characterize the principles related to Brazilian Criminal Procedural Law; to verify the doctrinal and jurisprudential analyses about the acceptance of psychographed letters as a means of proof. This research was based on pre-existing opinions of scholars, legal articles and jurisprudence, and is therefore classified as bi-bibliographic. By virtue of what has been mentioned, psychography does not constitute a violation of rights in any way, therefore, its admission is perfectly possible, if it were not so, the State would be violating a constitutional precept of the protection of belief. The difficulty of facing the theme from a scientific perspective is great, because few studies have been and are done, which makes it difficult to understand the subject, which would explain the distorted opinions that people most of the time have on the subject.

This paper addresses the advances and challenges in the clinical practice of respiratory tract pharmacology and pharmacotherapy. Respiratory pharmacology has evolved significantly, offering a wide range of medications for the treatment of conditions such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Bronchodilators, inhaled corticosteroids, and risk factor modification strategies, such as smoking cessation, are key to improving lung function and reducing exacerbations.
The use of modern drugs, as highlighted in "Goodman & Gilman's: The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics", is complemented by updated guidelines, such as those of the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) and the Brazilian Society of Pulmonology and Phthisiology. These guidelines aim not only to relieve symptoms but also to promote an integrated approach that improves patients' quality of life.
Effective implementation of these strategies requires not only up-to-date scientific knowledge, but also public health policies that promote the rational use of medicines and educational interventions. Therefore, this study underscores the importance of a multidisciplinary approach to address the complex challenges associated with chronic respiratory diseases.

Published: July 2024

O gerenciamento de impressão nos relatórios financeiros trata-se de um mecanismo para alterar a percepção do usuário das informações contábeis direcionando-os para compreensão desejada pela administração da firma. Em cenários de recuperação judicial os relatórios financeiros podem ser utilizados como instrumento legitimador da condição da firma ou da cadeia de eventos que a direcionou a esta condição. Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo verificar se há evidências características de gerenciamento de impressão nos relatórios da administração de companhias abertas listadas na B[3] que entraram no processo de recuperação judicial no período entre 2014 e 2019. O conjunto de dados analisados são de empresas que obtiveram homologação do seu pedido de recuperação judicial no período citado com relatórios da administração divulgados no site da CVM. Foram analisados 66 relatórios de 11 empresas nos períodos de 3 anos antes e 3 anos depois do processo de recuperação judicial. Para análise foram adotadas duas métricas de gerenciamento de impressão, o TOM e o Índice de Facilidade de Leitura de Flesch (IFLF). Os dados foram analisados descritivamente e por instrumentos de correlação não paramétricos. O resultado da análise evidenciou que existe alteração no gerenciamento de impressão (TOM) das narrativas contábeis com tendência a neutralidade do terceiro ano para o primeiro ano antes do processo de recuperação judicial das firmas analisadas. O resultado da pesquisa possibilitou considerar que as empresas tendem a reduzir o TOM positivo das narrativas contábeis a medida em que se aproximam de um cenário de recuperação judicial, e que passado este cenário existe uma tendência de retorno ao gerenciamento de impressão dos relatórios. Os resultados deste estudo contribuem ainda para percepção dos agentes do mercado acerca de possíveis alterações das narrativas dos relatórios contábeis das empresas quando seus indicadores tendem a cenários de dificuldades financeiras.

Authors: De Oliveira Stela Pacheco
Published: July 2024

Essa pesquisa aborda a cadeia de produção do vinho na Fábrica de Sucos Família Silva, destacando a evolução das práticas produtivas e o impacto ambiental da viticultura. O estudo teve como objetivo analisar a cadeia produtiva do vinho e propor soluções sustentáveis para otimizar processos e minimizar impactos ambientais. A produção de vinho apresenta diversos impactos ambientais, como o uso excessivo de água e energia, além da utilização de produtos químicos que podem contaminar o solo e a água. A adoção de práticas sustentáveis, como o uso de energias renováveis e a redução de químicos, é crucial para a sustentabilidade da indústria vinícola. A pesquisa tem caráter descritivo e utiliza uma abordagem qualitativa, baseada em dados primários e secundários e a coleta de dados foi realizada por meio de uma visita técnica à vinicola. A modelagem dos processos produtivos foi feita utilizando a metodologia EKD (Enterprise Knowledge Development), que envolve a criação de diagramas para representar visualmente os diferentes elementos do processo. Observou-se que a cadeia produtiva ainda carece de práticas sustentáveis, sendo o foco principal direcionado aos custos e finanças. No entanto, foram identificadas oportunidades para diferenciar a produção e torná-la mais sustentável, exigindo a colaboração dos moradores locais, estratégias de mercado e dos funcionários da fábrica. A pesquisa sugere que a inovação e a sustentabilidade são fundamentais para o futuro da produção vinícola, e a substituição de garrafas de vinho por latas pode ser uma alternativa viável para reduzir custos e impactos ambientais. Além disso, estudar e analisar a cadeia produtiva do vinho é crucial para fortalecer o setor, modernizar a produção e atrair investidores, promovendo um futuro mais sustentável e competitivo para a vitivinicultura na região de Angatuba.
Importância da utilização dos equipamentos de proteção individual e coletiva para a prevenção de acidentes
Authors: Dos Santos Rodrigo Andrade
Published: July 2024

Equipamento de Proteção Individual (EPI) refere-se a dispositivos destinados ao uso pessoal, cuja função é minimizar certos tipos de acidentes e oferecer proteção contra determinadas doenças que podem surgir devido ao ambiente de trabalho. Esses equipamentos devem ser utilizados quando as medidas de proteção coletiva não são suficientes para eliminar os riscos. Acidente de trabalho é definido como qualquer evento relacionado ao exercício profissional que resulte em lesão corporal, distúrbio funcional ou doença, podendo causar morte ou perda, total ou parcial, temporária ou permanente, da capacidade para o trabalho.
Apesar da presença de diversos riscos no ambiente laboral, a falta de consistência no uso dos EPIs continua sendo um dos principais fatores que agravam a gravidade dos acidentes de trabalho. Os EPIs são de extrema importância para os trabalhadores, pois permitem que realizem suas atividades de forma segura, sem comprometer sua saúde e integridade física. A não utilização dos EPIs pode resultar em consequências desastrosas, não apenas para o trabalhador, mas também para o empregador e a sociedade em geral. Isso ocorre devido ao aumento da incidência de doenças ocupacionais e acidentes de trabalho, acarretando impactos econômicos e sociais negativos.

This study explored teachers’ conceptions and practices of practising inquiry-based instruction (IBI) in early years education and how the curriculum supports IBI integration. Employing a qualitative approach, this study generated data from 37 purposively selected early years teachers from ten schools in Dar es Salaam using interviews and document analysis. It was found that teachers have a narrow conception of IBI. Moreover, teachers rarely integrate IBI in their classrooms due to large classes, unsupportive curriculum contexts, and limited understanding of IBI. Furthermore, the findings revealed that though the curricula objectives and content permit integration of IBI, overemphasis on academic skills such as literacy and numeracy skills limits the integration of IBI.

This paper explored the constraints and measures needed to address the obstacles to quality teaching and learning of environmental education (EE) in teachers’ colleges. The data were gathered from two teachers’ colleges, one in the Morogoro region and the other in the Coast region. This paper employed a qualitative research approach and a case study design. The information was collected through semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions. The sample size was 34, comprising 14 tutors and 20 teacher trainees. The findings revealed major constraints, including resource shortages, inadequate training, insufficient integration of EE content into the curriculum, and limited knowledge among tutors. Conversely, identified mitigation strategies encompassed ongoing training, outdoor educational activities, increased educational resources, and fostering partnerships among community education stakeholders. These findings underscore the critical role of well-prepared teachers in enhancing the effectiveness of environmental education in Tanzanian primary schools.

Authors: Abonyi Usman Kojo ,   Department of Educational Studies and Leadership, University of Ghana, P. O.  Box 1181, Legon, Accra, Ghana
Published: July 2024

This study investigated the effects of teachers’ participation in decision-making in Ghanaian basic schools on their organisational commitment. The study utilised a descriptive survey design to randomly select 285 teachers from the La Nkwantanang-Madina Municipality of the Greater Accra region of Ghana to participate in the research. The generated data were analysed using descriptive statistics (means and standard deviations), confirmatory factor analysis, and structural equation modelling. The results showed that teachers moderately participated in school decision-making. Similarly, their level of organisational commitment to the teaching profession was moderate. Finally, the effect of teacher participation in decision-making on organisational commitment was positive and statistically significant. The study’s findings suggest that implementing shared leadership models, where teachers are consistently involved in discussions about school policies, curriculum development, and other critical areas, can enhance their commitment and performance. Consequently, the study recommends that school leaders initiate pragmatic policies to promote teachers’ participation in decision-making, thereby increasing their organisational commitment.

Authors: Riza Yeni , Dendy Doan Alva , Irianty Hilda , Ariyanto Edy
Published: July 2024

Background: The increase in the number of pulmonary TB cases increases the risk of illness and death, which indicates the need for TB prevention and control efforts through online recording and reporting of cases using the Tuberculosis Information System (SITB). However, there are several challenges in implementing the use of SITB, which results in delays in reporting TB cases and disrupts TB prevention and treatment efforts.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe the use of SITB with the HOT-FIT Framework in the UPT Puskesmas Lemo area, North Barito District, Central Kalimantan.
Methods: This research applies qualitative research methods with a phenomenological approach. The study population consisted of five informants who were selected deliberately (purposive sampling), including the Head of Puskesmas, TB Program Manager, TB Program Management Assistant, General Practitioner, and Laboratory Officer.
Results: The results highlight that the use of Tuberculosis Information System (SITB) applications faces a number of supporting and inhibiting factors, which eventually lead to delays in reporting. Although the availability of adequate human resources (HR) is one of the supporting factors for reporting tuberculosis (TB) cases through the SITB application, the unstable internet network and lack of facilities and infrastructure such as inadequate software are also inhibiting factors.
Conclusion: Puskesmas Lemo has participated in the successful implementation of TB case recording and reporting activities using SITB, but there are several aspects that still need to be improved and followed up. Thus, the Lemo Health Center still needs regular guidance and monitoring by the Health Office in carrying out its functions.

There are intense ongoing debates about the importance and quality of agri-food governance, and these have not gone unnoticed in Bulgaria. There is no suitable Bulgarian translation for the word governance, and many inaccurate terms are used such as managing, management, leadership, directing, regulating, regime, etc. In order to accurately reveal the essence of this category and avoid misunderstandings with researchers in other fields, this article uses the term governance. It adapts the methodology of New Institutional Economics and offers a holistic framework for an adequate understanding of agri-food governance and for assessing its quality. Agri-food governance is defined as a complex system with five main components: (1) agrarian and related agents, (2) the means (rules, forms, and mechanisms) that govern agents' behavior, activities, and relationships, (3) processes and activities associated with decision-making, (4) a specific social order resulting from the governance process, and (5) the system’s performance results in relation to the realization of sustainable development goals. To assess the quality of agri-food governance, a multidimensional hierarchical system of principles, criteria, indicators, and reference values for good governance is suggested. The initial assessment of the quality of agri-food governance in Bulgaria, based on expert and statistical data, shows that it is at an average (European) level. In terms of sustainability, the quality is at a good level, while it is at a satisfactory level in terms of processes, means, and order. The Bulgarian agri-food governance strengths are in terms of equity and solidarity, in addition to a well-functioning public sector; its weaknesses are in stakeholder engagement and private sector efficiency.

O estudo teve como objetivo investigar como o leite materno influencia a microbiota intestinal da lactente e evidenciar seu papel no desenvolvimento do sistema imunológico humano. Foi utilizada a abordagem PICO na formulação da pergunta e a pesquisa abrangeu os últimos 10 anos das bases de dados  MEDLINE/Pubmed e BVS. Dos 76 artigos identificados após a triagem, 8 atenderam aos critérios de inclusão, sendo gratuitos, originais e escritos em inglês ou português. O estudo evidenciou que oligossacarídeos no leite materno influenciam o crescimento de colônias bacterianas intestinais benéficas, como Staphylococcus e Bifidobacterium spp. A colonização inicial do intestino de lactentes amamentados é caracterizada pela presença predominante de Bifidobacterium, Eubacterium, Clostridium, Bacteroides e Lactobacillus. Os resultados destacaram que a amamentação fortalece o sistema imunológico, reduzindo morbidade e mortalidade por infecções, além da redução da inflamação sistêmica. Assim, a amamentação impacta positivamente na saúde a longo prazo, fortalecendo o sistema imunológico e reduzindo incidências de infecções, doenças crônicas e metabólicas. Embora intervenções como BMOS e probióticos também demonstrem benefícios, o leite materno é preferível para estabelecer padrões duradouros na saúde do lactente. O método de parto e o uso de fórmulas também foram identificados como influenciadores no desenvolvimento imunológico.
