Uso de meme no ensino de espanhol
Authors: Pereira Adriana Teixeira
Published: June 2024

Esta narrativa de ensino tem como objetivo refletir sobre a importância dos gêneros digitais na sala de aula de línguas adicionais, em especial o meme, seja no processo de compreensão ou produção, já que que estamos imersos em uma cultura digital que modifica constantemente nossos modos de ser e estar no mundo. Nesse sentido, a análise parte do relato de experiência, na qual descrevo uma atividade de leitura literária de um conto latino-americano e a elaboração de um meme a partir deste texto, no ensino técnico integrado ao ensino médio, em contexto de pandemia. O referencial teórico é pautado nos eixos conceituais: leitura crítica (CASSANY, 2006), leitura literária (COSSON, 2006; MENDOZA,2007), multimodalidade e multiletramentos (KERSCH; COSCARELLI, 2016). Acredito que a proposta de produção de um meme incentivou a leitura literária, fazendo com que os alunos se dedicassem a uma leitura minuciosa para ser o mais criativo na sua produção. Destaco também a importância de tornar a proposta de leitura e escrita mais próximas da realidade do estudante, fazendo com que este reflita criticamente aspectos de seu cotidiano.

Authors: Dias Pinto Alexandre
Published: June 2024

Numa época em que, segundo estudos recentes, os adolescentes portugueses leem pouco e revelam dificuldades na interpretação de textos literários e não literários (Lopes, 2011; Yubero et al., 2014; Cameira, 2020), a gamificação pode dar um bom contributo para motivar os alunos dos ensinos básico e secundário para a leitura e para os auxiliar no trabalho de compreensão de obras literárias, proporcionando condições que lhes permitam analisar os textos autonomamente e de modo interativo e desafiante (Chen et al., 2020; Manzano-León et al., 2022). No presente artigo, apresenta-se e descreve-se uma atividade de leitura e interpretação de três reflexões do poeta de Os Lusíadas, com base em jogos de fuga digitais, a que se segue a resolução de testes para aferir se as aprendizagens foram bem sucedidas. Pretende-se, com esta abordagem, não só motivar os estudantes para a leitura e a compreensão do poema de Luís de Camões, mas também criar um percurso de trabalho de interpretação de texto, individual e autónomo, recorrendo a ferramentas digitais, antes de se sistematizarem conhecimentos em plenário de turma. No artigo, analisa-se também a metodologia seguida na atividade, defendendo as opções tomadas na construção e na implementação dos jogos e na monitorização do desempenho dos alunos. Numa segunda parte, discutem-se os resultados que os estudantes obtiveram nos testes, que se revelaram muito animadores, bem como a avaliação que fizeram da capacidade motivadora e da utilidade dos jogos de fuga na interpretação do texto camoniano.

Despite extensive research on Facial Expression Recognition (FER) in humans using deep learning technology, significantly less focus has been placed on applying these advancements to recognize facial expressions in domestic animals. Recognizing this gap, our research aims to extend FER techniques specifically to domestic cats, one of the most popular domestic pets. In this paper, we present a real-time system model that employs deep learning to identify and classify cat facial expressions into four categories: Pleased, Angry, Alarmed, and Calm. This innovative model not only helps cat owners understand their pets' behavior more accurately but also holds substantial potential for applications in domestic animal health services. By identifying and interpreting the emotional states of cats, we can address a critical need for improved communication between humans and their pets, fostering better care and well-being for these animals. To develop this system, we conducted extensive experiments and training using a diverse dataset of cat images annotated with corresponding facial expressions. Our approach involved using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to analyze and learn from the subtleties in feline facial features by investigating the models' robustness considering metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, confusion matrix, and f1-score. The experimental results demonstrate the high recognition accuracy and practicality of our model, underscoring its effectiveness. This research aims to empower pet owners, veterinarians, and researchers with advanced tools and insights, ensuring the well-being and happiness of domestic cats. Ultimately, our work highlights the potential of FER technology to significantly enhance the quality of life for cats by enabling better understanding and more responsive care from their human companions

In December 2019, Wuhan City, China, discovered a new infectious disease, COVID-19. Over 70 million people have been infected and one million people have died as a result of COVID-19. Defeating such a deadly, infectious disease requires accurate models that predict COVID-19 outbreaks. Using prediction models, governments can plan budgets and facilities for fighting diseases, and take control measures to make better decisions and take control measures. For example, they can determine how many medicines and medical equipment to manufacture or import, as well as how many medical personnel are needed to fight the disease. The COVID-19 outbreak has subsequently been predicted in several countries and continents using regression and classification models. A recent study that incorporated statistical and machine learning techniques was reviewed to predict COVID-19 outbreaks in the future. Ground truth datasets are used, their characteristics are investigated, models are developed, predictor variables are identified, statistical and machine learning methods are applied, performance metrics are calculated, and finally comparisons are made. By applying machine learning methods, the survey results indicate that we can make predictions about whether a patient will become infected with COVID-19, how outbreak trends will develop, and which age groups will be affected the most

Published: June 2024

Vaccines have been one of the best weapons against diseases that have affected humanity for years, their development has allowed the eradication of important epidemics such as smallpox in 1980. Previously, complete microorganisms, or parts of them, were used to fight a disease. Nowadays vaccines make use of more sophisticated components such as genetic material and/or viral vectors. However, although technology in vaccine development has increased considerably in recent years, there are still limitations for the treatment of diseases caused by viruses such as HIV and complex diseases that are difficult to address such as systemic lupus erythematosus and cancer. This article briefly describes an overview of such diseases and the current trend of directing the immune response by vaccinating cells, not people. The importance of dendritic cells and the new technologies that have emerged in recent years are highlighted.
Theoretical Justifications of the Right to Free Speech in the Digital Era
Authors: Cengiz İlyas Fırat
Published: June 2024

Speech is information and communication expressing thoughts, ideas or emotions such as science, poetry, politics, promises, answers, complaints, etc. It is fundamental for individual and social levels to interact. The right to free speech with various theoretical justifications, such as self-fulfillment, personal autonomy, the marketplace for ideas, the search for truth, democracy, tolerance, and pluralism, is the integral existence of individuals and society. These justifications reflect the interrelation between the right to freedom of speech and other rights. Free speech causes individual and social good by achieving these justifications, yet it may result in harmful consequences or conflict with other rights. The digital era advances a new medium to promote the right to free speech within cyberspace. This era shapes individuals and social interrelation for specific ideas and actions in a short time. This represents communication in a new form through the internet, information, and communication technologies rather than print and broadcasting. The international system has been established based on expanding and diffusing cyberspace. Therefore, the coherence of these justifications is analysed within the recent digital transformation process, creating positive and negative impacts on freedom of speech.
Kapitalizm ve İktisadi Adalet: Kirzner’in Perspektifi
Authors: Levent Adem
Published: June 2024

Avusturya iktisat okulunun 1970 sonrası en önemli temsilcilerinden biri olan Kirzner, girişimci keşif teorisiyle dikkatleri üzerine çekmiştir. Kirzner’e göre girişimcinin asıl karakteri başlangıç koşullarında atıl fırsatları ortaya çıkarma yeteneğidir. Bu yetenek, girişimci keşif eylemi olarak adlandırılır. Girişimci keşif eylemi, kişinin maliyetsiz olarak elde edilebilen bir kazancın farkına vardığı eylemdir. Bu eylem neticesinde saf girişimci kârı elde edilir. Saf girişimci kârı, keşfedilen ve maliyetsiz olarak elde edilebilen kazançtır. Elde edilirken başkalarına zarar verilmediğinden de meşrudur. Kapitalist sistemin işleyişi, söz konusu saf girişimci kârına dayanır. Dağıtımcı adalet taraftarı düşünürler, girişimci kârını tam olarak anlamadıkları için kapitalist sistemi adaletsizlik ve ahlaksızlıkla suçlarlar. Girişimci keşif eylemi ve bu eylemden doğan saf girişimci kârının bilinmesi, kapitalizm ve dağıtımcı adalete ilişkin tartışmalara yeni bir bakış açısı getirmektedir. Bu çalışma Kirzner’in kapitalizme ve dağıtımcı adalete yönelik düşüncelerini irdelemektedir.

Published: June 2024

Niyazi Berkes, Türkiye’de sosyal bilimlerin oluşumunun erken denebilecek bir döneminde, özellikle sosyoloji alanında önemli bir figürdür. Tarih, toplum, siyaset ve teoloji gibi geniş bir yelpazede eserler ortaya koymuş olmasına rağmen ilgi odağı hep toplumsal dönüşüm özelde de Türk modernleşmesi olmuştur. Bu odak noktasında tarihsel ve toplumsal bakış açısı ile döneminde fark yaratan eserler ortaya koymuştur. Türk Düşününde Batı Sorunu (1975) ve Türkiye’de Çağdaşlaşma (1964) bunların en başında gelenlerdendir. Türkiye’de sosyolojinin kurumsallaşması adına da önemli çabaları ve alanında ilk sayılabilecek çalışmaları ortaya koyan Berkes, ilk önce akademi içindeki pozisyonundan uzaklaştırılmış, sonrasında ise yurt dışında yaşamak zorunda kalmış ve ölümünden sonra da birçok yorumcusunun ortak kanaatidir ki unutulmuştur. Bu çalışma bu unutuluşu sorunsallaştırmakta ve onun Yusuf Akçura için yazdığı bir makaleden yola çıkarak unutuluşunun nedenlerini yas ve melankoli geriliminde soruşturmaktadır.
Şehirlerin Kökeninde Güven Unsuru Olarak Dini İnanışların Rolü
Authors: Ovalı Turgay
Published: June 2024

Medeniyetlerin oluşumunda önemli yere sahip olan ilk yerleşim yerlerini ele alan çalışmalar, şehirlerin kökenlerine dair çeşitli teoriler ortaya koymuştur. Bu teoriler, insanların bir araya gelerek birlikte yaşama kültürü edinmelerini genellikle maddi ihtiyaçlara bağlamaktadır. Esasen şehir, her şeyden önce birbiriyle savaşmayacak ve birbirlerine güvenerek manevi bir birlik oluşturabilecek insanların bir araya gelerek oluşturduğu bir ortak yaşam birimidir. Birlikte yaşayabilme olgusunu güven unsurunu ele almadan açıklamak eksik bir yaklaşım olacaktır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, şehirlerin oluşmasında temel unsurlardan biri olan ancak sürekli olarak ikincil planda bırakılan güven duygusu ile bu duyguyu oluşturan dini motiflerin önemini ortaya koymaktır. Bu maksatla, bir güven unsuru olarak dini inançların şehirlerin oluşumundaki yerlerine temas edilmiş ve dünyadaki ilk uygarlıklardan örnekler verilerek bu iddia temellendirilmeye çalışılmıştır.
Study of Botanical Music Integration using the Touché method
Authors: Ahmed Suhail , Nasser Heeba , D Najumnissa Jamal
Published: June 2024

This study explores the integration of Touché's Swept Frequency Capacitive sensing technique with plant biology to understand plant responses to touch and to generate music from these interactions. The research involves the collection of various indoor plants such as Money Plant, Bamboo Plant, Oyster Plant, and Philodendron Plant, each with unique properties and benefits. Capacitive sensors are integrated with the plants, and Arduino boards are utilized to measure changes in capacitance upon touch. The electrical signals from plants are converted into musical notes using Max8 software, providing a dynamic interface for plant interaction. Results indicate that plants with thicker stems, such as bamboo and oyster plants, exhibit heightened sensitivity, potentially due to their higher water content and conductivity. The study also suggests succulent plants show promise in this regard. Through this interdisciplinary approach, insights are gained into plant sensory mechanisms and adaptive responses, bridging the gap between technology, biology, and music. Further investigations could delve into the specific mechanisms underlying plant sensitivity and explore the impact of music on plant growth and behaviour, offering new perspectives on plant communication and environmental responsiveness. Ultimately, this integration of technology with nature aims to promote growth without negative environmental impact.

ALERGIA À PROTEÍNA DO LEITE DE VACA: A IMPORTÂNCIA DO CONHECIMENTO DAS MÃES SOBRE A APLV
Authors: Bruno de Barros Miguez
Published: June 2024

A Alergia Alimentar (AA) é muito comum na infância, sendo uma reação alérgica a um ou outro alimento. Na maioria dos casos ela desaparece com o passar do tempo, mas é possível que adultos tenham essas condições clínicas que podem persistir por toda a vida do indivíduo. A AA em geral atinge o sistema imunológico vindo a desencadear mecanismos de ação contra o antígeno causador, gerando assim sinais e sintomas após a ingestão do alimento. No caso da Alergia à Proteína do Leite de Vaca (APLV) o agente causador é encontrado principalmente no leite e seus derivados sendo que o responsável por toda essa reação são proteínas do leite de vaca, tais como a caseína, lactoglobulina, lactoalbumina, soroalbumina, imunoglobulinas. Diante do exposto, a motivação em se abordar esta temática surgiu na observação da importância de se verificar o conhecimento das mães sobre a respeito da APLV, haja vista que esta patologia se torna um problema de grande relevância tanto no âmbito clínico quanto no financeiro, deixando essas mulheres e família mais apreensivos por não terem a devida concepção de como lidar com esta condição clínica. Por outro lado, tem-se a atuação do Enfermeiro como mediador do conhecimento, pois o mesmo é detentor de informações técnicas e conceituais que contribuem através das recomendações terapêuticas e cuidados de enfermagem de maneira efetiva para uma melhor qualidade de vida desses portadores da APLV. Neste contexto, o presente estudo tem como problema: Qual a importância do conhecimento das mães a respeito da alergia à proteína do leite de vaca (APLV)? Seu objetivo geral contempla destacar a importância do conhecimento das mães a respeito da APLV e os objetivos específicos primam por conceituar e caracterizar a APLV, destacar a sintomatologia, tipos de diagnóstico e possíveis tratamentos da APLV e informar sobre o papel do enfermeiro na educação em saúde para mães que têm filhos com APLV. Ao términjo do estudo constatou-se que a alimentação saudável e adequada sempre foi uma preocupação sendo esta primordial para todas as faixas etárias da vida, mas principalmente na infância, tendo em vista que os hábitos alimentares precisam ser estimulados e executados nesta fase de vida desses indivíduos em desenvolvimento, porém, tudo isso muda em decorrência do diagnóstico de patologias como a APLV que se dá na presença da alergia a produtos à base do leite de vaca, sendo necessário um maior cuidado em não fornecê-los para os indivíduos que possuem esta condição clínica. Neste contexto, destaca-se a importância do conhecimento das mães ou responsáveis a respeito da APLV devendo estas serem orientadas pelo Enfermeiro que tem como função a educação em saúde para que possa melhor direcioná-las sobre os cuidados com os fatores de risco relacionados a esta patologia.

Attitudes towards COVID-19 vaccines may have “spilled over” to other, unrelated vaccines along party lines in the United States
Authors: LaCour Mark , Bell Zebulon
Published: June 2024

This study used data from pre- and post-COVID surveys to examine vaccine attitudes in the United States. We found evidence consistent with an ideological “spillover” effect: Liberals’ attitudes became more positive towards non-COVID vaccines (flu, MMR, HPV, chickenpox) and conservatives’ attitudes became more negative. These spillover effects are perplexing because the COVID-19 vaccines were developed more rapidly than the others and (some of them) were the first to use mRNA technology on a mass scale to achieve immunization. Hence, there were reasons to isolate one’s attitudes towards the COVID-19 vaccines rather than generalize them. This exacerbates current vaccine communication challenges.
The Songs of Michel Beheim
Authors: Ogier James
Published: June 2024

Michel Beheim (1420–ca. 1474), prolific and peripatetic composer of almost 500 song-poems, explored a very wide thematic and stylistic range, embracing almost every type of song accessible to the late medieval and early modern singer. He wrote lyrics on history and love, politics and travel, geography and aesthetics, morals and warfare, satire and diplomacy, polemics and religion, Dracula and ocean monsters – and more. Often his own scribe, Beheim, ever the self-important artist, carefully preserved his work for posterity. Sometimes housed at the highest courts of the Empire, but frequently without sustenance, Beheim led a life in constant search of literary patronage. In the end, he was forced into retirement because his monophonic singing fell out of favor, rivalled by the polyphonic music of the Renaissance courts. This new collection of annotated translations of his work offers an introduction to his vast oeuvre. «Our foremost translator and commentator, Professor Ogier is a surefooted guide to the challenging oeuvre of Michel Beheim, an under-appreciated author of vast range. Ogier’s colloquial, yet true renditions perfectly capture the tone and timbre of a long-stilled, but vital voice. This volume is particularly welcome because it contains many of the first English versions of richly diverse and important song-poems. It is to be hoped that this volume finds a place in our university classrooms, where Michel Beheim will surely gain an appreciative audience.» (Professor William C. McDonald, University of Virginia) «James Ogier meets the scientific standards required since the new assessment of Beheim’s poetry in the history of pre-Meistersang. This concerns the selection of the poems with its special focus as well as the transcription of Beheim’s melodies as an integral part of his art. Therefore, I strongly endorse this publication.» (Professor Sieglinde Hartmann, Universität Würzburg)
Catholic Theology and the Dispute over the Image of Science
Authors: Baruwaso Riki Maulana
Published: June 2024

The dawn of the new image of science, since Galileo, has called into question the Aristotelian concept of science and, thus, the old claim of the scientific profile of theology. This work deals with the idea that theology is not a science. Using Karl Popper's critical rationalism, it searches for explanations as to why it is difficult, if not impossible, for (Catholic) theology to be (regarded as) a science; and why it is still possible to speak of rationality in the context of Catholic theology
How to treat a patient with psoriatic arthritis and chronic lymphocytic leukemia?
Authors: Braun Jürgen , Karberg Kirsten , Poddubnyy Denis
Published: June 2024

A 76-year-old male patient who has been suffering from psoriatic arthritis (PsA) for 15 years was diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) 18 months ago. He has been treated him with a Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor (ibrutinib) at a dose of 420 mg once daily (q.d.) for his CLL. For about two years, he received a quite successful treatment with methotrexate and the subcutaneously administered tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitor (adalimumab) for his PsA, until his plaque psoriasis worsened. He consulted us when the severity of his skin condition necessitated a change in his treatment regimen. In the following discussion, we explore treatment options for this clinical scenario, with a particular focus on managing PsA in the context of CLL as a comorbidity. Additionally, we report on the initial phase of treatment with an anti-interleukin-23 (IL-23) inhibitor (guselkumab), specifically targeting his aggravated psoriasis.
Gli incarichi dirigenziali della magistratura e la partecipazione delle associazioni dei magistrati al loro conferimento
Authors: Polizzi Giuseppe Eduardo
Published: June 2024

Una delle questioni emerse nel corso della 18° Legislatura italiana riguarda il ruolo delle associazioni dei magistrati nel processo di conferimento degli incarichi direttivi e semidirettivi. È opinione diffusa che il modello emerso dalle riforme del periodo 2005-2007 abbia favorito forme di carrierismo interne alla magistratura, lontane dal modello delineato dalla Costituzione del 1948. L’articolo analizza gli snodi problematici della disciplina delle nomine giudiziarie “prima” e “dopo” la l. n. 71 del 2022. Nelle conclusioni presenta una proposta, de iure condendo, che mira a insignire le associazioni dei magistrati di un ruolo formale nel procedimento di conferimento degli incarichi dirigenziali.
Early colorectal cancer screening–no time to lose

Published: June 2024

In this editorial, we comment on the article entitled “Stage at diagnosis of colorectal cancer through diagnostic route: Who should be screened?” by Agatsuma et al . Colorectal cancer (CRC) is emerging as an important health issue as its incidence continues to rise globally, adversely affecting the quality of life. Although the public has become more aware of CRC prevention, most patients lack screening awareness. Some poor lifestyle practices can lead to CRC and symptoms can appear in the early stages of CRC. However, due to the lack of awareness of the disease, most of the CRC patients are diagnosed already at an advanced stage and have a poor prognosis.

A TiO2/graphene quantum dots composite (TiO2/GQDs) obtained by in situ synthesis of GQDs, derived from coffee grounds, and peroxo titanium complexes was used as electrode modifier in the simultaneous electrochemical determination of uric acid and hypoxanthine. The TiO2/GQDs material was characterized by photoluminescence, X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray mapping. The TiO2/GQDs-GCE exhibits better electrochemical activity for uric acid and hypoxanthine than GQDs/GCE or TiO2/GCE in differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) measurements. Under optimized conditions, the calibration plots were linear in the range from 1.00 to 15.26 μM for both uric acid and hypoxanthine. The limits of detection of this method were 0.58 and 0.68 μM for uric acid and hypoxanthine, respectively. The proposed DPV method was employed to determine uric acid and hypoxanthine in urine samples with acceptable recovery rates.
