Foodie's Point of View on Consuming Popular-Commercial Food
Authors: Hasan Lily Dianafitry , Anas Muhammad , Zainuddin Muh.
Published: November 2021

This study aims to describe how foodies consume popular-commercial foods. In this study, the method used is qualitative. The informant determination technique used is purposive (deliberate). The data collection used is by observation, in-depth interviews with informants, and confirmed by various literature studies that are relevant to the research topic. The results show that the concept of eating itself is still relatively different for each foodie. However, the similarities are related to the limits, such as eating which is limited by the availability of rice or not in a dish, snacking as a 'light' food (practical and fast), and a booster that can be anything but with smaller portions. Foodies have also transformed non-material to material values from food into meanings that are used as a medium for social interaction.

The ecological damage to the coast of Bangka has forced the community to carry out environmental conservation movements to improve their marine ecology. The environmental movement carried out by the HKm Gempa 01 Group in Kurau Barat Village is an ecocentrism activity that is the antithesis of anthropocentrism behavior that has damaged the environment in the Bangka Belitung Islands. On that basis, this research was conducted to analyze and know the Ecocentrism-based Mangrove Tourism Movement Strategy. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method with data collection techniques using observation, interviews with purposive sampling techniques, and documents, while the analysis technique uses data triangulation. The results showed that the HKm Gempa 01 Group mobilized three stakeholders, namely the government, the community, and tourists, to manage the Mangrove area based on ecocentrism behavior. The success of the management of the area forms a movement strategy that can pressure three stakeholders to transform anthropocentrism behavior towards ecocentrism behavior in the management of the Munjang Kurau Mangrove area.

Authors: Wido Minarto Soerjo , Zandra Rully Aprilia , Idzwan Ismail Adzrool
Published: November 2021

Beach tourism and seaside settlements are perennially popular. Nature's potential as well as the coast's characteristic hybrid art may always entice visitors. The settlements at the foot of the mountain, on the other hand, have their own unique environmental, gastronomic, and cultural identities. Bedugul village (Indonesia), Albarracin village (Spain), Reine village (Norway), Wengen village (Switzerland), Panglipuran village (Indonesia), Hallstatt village (Austria), Patiangan village (Indonesia), and Ora village (Indonesia) are some of the names given to the villages in Indonesia (Greece). They're all mountain communities that have successfully marketed themselves as tourist destinations at the foot of the mountain. The goal of this research is to come up with a viable approach for village branding at the foot of the mountain. This study is a hybrid of action research and development research, with a focus on tourism village acceleration. The Benjor village residents, Benjor village administrators, and a sample of potential visitors were polled for information. The community around Benjor village, the Malang Regency community, and persons outside the Malang Regency were all surveyed for potential visitors. Individual interviews or focus groups, environmental observations, and archives of village office records and Malang Regency government documents were used to gather data. The purpose of this study is to understand the tourism village process before and after therapy. Mining potential excavation yields eleven environmental assets in the form of waterfalls, five culinary assets in the form of chilli sauce, grilled rice, and other similar dishes, and three cultural assets in the form of hadrah, jaranan, and dancing. The development research yielded seven goods that Benjor villagers found to be the most effective in terms of branding. For mountain slope communities, the greatest method is to combine branded items that showcase their artistic, natural, and gastronomic potential.
EDUCATION PRINCIPLES IN A MODEL OF STRONG SUSTAINABILITY
Authors: Denona Bogović Nada , Čegar Saša
Published: November 2021

In the past decades, in all the world schools and faculties of economics, it was taught that the main objective of economic policy is to ensure continuous economic growth. However, for reasons of limited absorption capacity of the environment and increasing reduction of the original ecosystems, models of economic growth are in opposition to the basic ecological principles. This is primarily the consequence of learning and applying the conventional economic paradigm which disregards the relationship between economy and environment. Therefore, the authors of this paper, proceeding from the correlation between economy and environment from the aspect of fundamental natural laws, analysed the basic determinants of the strong sustainability paradigm which implies that natural capital resources should be maintained in the constant flow of time. The research also includes analysis of the correlation between specific economic and ecological challenges of sustainable development in global regions. The authors concluded that sustainable economy may exist only in the sustainable symbiosis with the natural system. Taking into account the complex relationship between nature, society, technology and economy, the authors concluded the paper with the proposition of concrete guidelines for a reform of economic education, in accordance with the concept of strong sustainability.

Published: November 2021

Cultural identity appears to be one of the highest values of contemporary society, accepted as the priority of contemporary and sustainable education. As a result of general globalization the school changes into the multicultural institution. Inasmuch as the topic of textbooks could support the formation of children's socio-cultural identity, the focus of the study would be the analysis of texts in primary school textbooks. The authors of the article studied the textbooks in Estonia and textbooks of neighbourhood countries Finland, Latvia and Czech Republic. The material of textbooks is analyzed on the axis 'your own – another' (supporting the belonging to your own culture vs opened to the international influences).
There the analysis is carried out, how much the folklore of one's own nation and other nations is presented in language and music textbooks. The methodology of the study includes content analysis and source analysis. Remarkable differences in the choice of texts in textbooks of different countries will be pointed out as a result. There are countries which textbooks include the texts tending to support the formation of national identity only. Besides with these are the countries which textbooks from the early school years pay attention on the values of cultural diversity and formation of empathy towards other cultures. Comparative analysis of the text choice in textbooks of different countries and publishers leads to unexpected paradoxes of logic of formation of socio-cultural identity in primary school age.
Key words: dialogue of cultures, socio-cultural identity, textbooks for primary school.

The purpose of this study is to determine what kind of reform will be provided by the General Directorate of Lifelong Learning, which was reconstructed in 2011, in their education policy based on theories of adult education in Public Education Centers such as “adult educator qualifications”, “content formation”, selection of methodology in teaching courses” and “achievement evaluation”. This research has questioned some dimensions of education programs, in the Ministry of Education with some of the provinces of Ankara and Mersin Public Education Centers. Open ended question survey was applied to collect the data. The result of the research shows that the content of the program comes from the center as a modular program. There is no training center for adult educators in Turkey. Teachers coming from different academic ranks and instructors specialised in their fields give courses in these institutions. Their teaching methods are compatible with pedagogy. Test type exams are applied. Moreover, like the other newly EU participant countries, Turkey has accepted Life Long Learning programs without preliminary preparations.

A lo largo de la historia, el ser humano ha sido partícipe de momentos de dolor, miedo y catástrofe que han marcado de una forma u otra nuestro legado. Ahora, el Turismo Oscuro muestra esos espacios y elementos que formaron parte de aquel momento, aunque en muchas ocasiones este tipo de turismo se convierte en algo tétrico o desagradable. A pesar de eso, el ser humano ha demostrado que quiere ser partícipe de esa parte de nuestra historia, donde la muerte y el sufrimiento eran los protagonistas. Es una forma que tenemos de corroborar que nuestra historia es la que es, a pesar de todos los matices oscuros que la envuelven,  y que nosotros somos parte de ello.
Development and Validation of Method for the Quantitative Determination of Zinc in its Chelate Complexes Using Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy
Authors: Marukhlenko А. V. , Maksimova Т. V. , Pleteneva Т. V. , Morozova М. A.
Published: November 2021

Introduction. The production, standardization and quality control process of various dietary supplements containing chelated zinc requires validated quantitative assessment methods. In this work, we propose an X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF) technique for determining the zinc content in the composition of coordination compounds using the example of a synthesized chelate complex with methionine.

Aim. To synthesize Zn(Met)2 chelate complex, to develop and validate a method for its quantitative analysis using the XRF method.

Materials and methods. The synthesized zinc chelate complex was investigated by IR spectroscopy. The XRF method was used to develop a method for quantifying the zinc content in the synthesized complex. We used dry mixtures of zinc sulfate monohydrate and L-methionine (Met) in a molar ratio of Zn to Met – 1 : 1, 1 : 2, 1 : 4, 1 : 8 and 1 : 16 and also aqueous solutions of zinc sulfate and L-methionine in a molar ratio of Zn to Met 1 : 2 with Zn concentrations from 0.5 to 100 mmol/l as calibration standards. Complexometric titration was used as an arbitration method for the quantitative determination of zinc content in the samples under study.

Results and discussion. The IR spectrum of chelate complex confirmed the presence of a donor-acceptor bond between Zn2+ and the nitrogen atom of amino group in methionine. The titration results showed chelate compounds have a composition corresponding to the stoichiometric formula Zn(Met)2. XRF analysis of dry standard mixed samples demonstrated the presence of matrix effect, that makes impossible an accurate assessment of zinc content in the chelate compound. According to the XRF spectra of aqueous solutions containing zinc sulfate and methionine in a ratio of 1 : 2 at a zinc concentration of 0.5; 1; 2; 3; 4; 5; 10; 25; 50 and 100 mmol/L, a calibration graph was constructed – the dependence of the fluorescence signal intensity for the Kα line of zinc on the concentration of zinc in the solution (r = 0.9996). The method was evaluated by the following validation parameters: specificity, linearity, correctness, precision, and analytical range. The specificity of the validated method was proven in the presence of copper, iron, and silver.

Conclusion. The developed method make it possible to determine with sufficient precision and correctness the content of Zn2+ in its aqueous solutions of inorganic and organic nature by the XRF method in the concentration range from 3 to 100 mmol/l without the influence of the matrix.

Authors: Sachivkina N. P. , Senyagin A. N. , Podoprigora I. V. , Brown D. G. , Vissarionova V. V.
Published: November 2021

Introduction. Clinical strains of microorganisms, including opportunistic yeast-like fungi (YLF) of the genus Candida, are resistant to currently used antifungal drugs. In this regard, the search for alternative ways to potentiate the activity of antimicrobial agents in relation to the infectious agent is an important and relevant area of research. The study of combinations of existing antimycotic drugs and a medicinal extract of plant origin – farnesol – is one of the promising approaches in the fight against resistant strains of YLF genus Candida. In our previous studies, farnesol has been shown to exhibit relative activity against YLF Candida albicans biofilms. In this study, we used 6 clinical isolates and one museum strain YLF C. albicans to study the effect of farnesol on the antifungal activity of antimycotic drugs.

Aim. To prove that farnesol can increase the antifungal activity of certain antimycotics.

Materials and methods. To determine the sensitivity of 7 strains of YLF C. albicans to the antimycotic drugs "Nystatin" (NYS 50 µg), "Ketoconazole" (KET 10 µg), "Clotrimazole" (CTR 10 µg), "Amphotericin B" (AMB 10 µg), "Voriconazole" (VRC 10 µg) disk diffusion test was used. A solution of farnesol in concentrations of 100, 50 and 25 µM in a volume of 25 µl was applied to the disk with the antimycotic drug. Sterile physiological (PhS) solution was used as a control (pH 7.0; V = 25 µl).

Results and discussion. In 34.3 % of of experiments we can talk about the modulating effect of farnesol solutions on the antifungal activity of antimycotic drugs. In all these cases, the sensitivity of YLF C. albicans to the antimycotic drug increases.

Conclusion. The results of this study provide useful information for understanding the mechanism of QS-molecules action with antifungal activity, as well as they are the basis for the practical application of some QS-molecules in the treatment of infectious diseases caused by YLF of the genus Candida. The study demonstrates that farnesol can be recommended as an active substance that improves the sensitivity of YLF Candida to antimycotic drugs, especially in the case of multi-resistant strains Candida.
Investigation of the Physical and Chemical Characteristics of the Zeolites of the Kholinsky Deposit
Authors: Bondarev A. V. , Zhilyakova E. T. , Demina N. B. , Razmakhnin K. K.
Published: November 2021

Introduction. The mineral resource base of Russia has effective sorption substances that meet pharmaceutical requirements. Promising mineral raw materials are Zeolites, which combine the properties of an adsorbent and a "molecular sieve" due to the porous structure. In addition to the enterosorption direction, natural Zeolites are a source of macro-and microelements, which determines their use as biologically active food additives.

Aim. Study of the physical and chemical characteristics of the Zeolites of the Kholinsky deposit.

Materials and methods. The zeolite mineral raw materials of the Kholinsky deposit were used as objects of research. Optical microscopy was performed using a Leica DM direct microscope (Microsystems, Germany). Energy dispersion analysis was performed using an electron scanning microscope JSM-5300 (Jeol Ltd, Japan). The sorption characteristics were studied using the ASAP 2400 device (Micromeritics, USA) according to the method. The construction of a virtual three-dimensional molecular model of the Zeolite was carried out using the program Java Applet Jmol.

Results and discussion. The physicochemical properties of Zeolites are investigated. It is established that morphologically the particles of the zeolite phase have a size of 5-30 microns, they are evenly distributed over the entire area of the site and represent the first structural level. Particles of the zeolite phase with a size of 5-6 microns form the second structural level due to Clinoptilolite crystals, microcracks and microgeodes. Based on the energy-dispersion spectral analysis, an increased content of the elements K, Na was revealed, which indicates the alkaline composition of the cation exchange complex. The studied Zeolite samples have micropores (volume 0.0031 cm3/g), mesopores (volume 0.0675 cm3/g), and a specific surface area of 29.1840 m2/g. A virtual three-dimensional molecular model of the Zeolite of the Kholinsky deposit has been developed. According to the molecular model, the sorption characteristics of the Kholinsky deposit Zeolite were: specific surface area - 1096.31 m2/g (1916.34 m2/cm3), the average diameter of the spherical molecule for adsorption in the pores is 5.97 A.

Conclusion. The analysis of the sorption characteristics of the Zeolite revealed the following features: the pores occupy half the volume of the entire Zeolite, which are available for the sorption of water and low-molecular substances. Each pore in three mutually perpendicular directions communicates with the neighboring ones through "windows". A system of intracrystalline pores and cavities is formed, in which the occlusion and adsorption of molecules of the appropriate size easily occurs.

Introduction. E. coli strains are the main microorganisms used for the production of a number of important biopharmaceutical products. There are no natural sources of microwave radiation on Earth, as it is absorbed by the upper atmosphere. No one doubts the importance of studying the biological effect of microwave radiation. The number of publications devoted to this problem is growing every year, and new ideas for the use of microwaves in drug production technology are emerging.

Aim. Reveal the main effects of microwave irradiation and develop a technology for microwave intensification of E. coli culture growth.

Materials and methods. This study presents the results of atomic force microscopy, refractometry, NMR relaxometry, turbidimetry, and lumimetry, demonstrating the possibility of microwave intensification of the cultivation process.

Results and discussion. It was found that microwave irradiation leads to changes in the mobility of protons and the adsorption of water molecules on biopolymers and cells. These are the main links in the mechanism of "non-thermal" microwave action. A single microwave irradiation, depending on a number of parameters, can decrease or increase the growth of biomass. Studies of the bioluminescence of the E. coli strain with the lux-operon have shown that the optimal processing conditions do not negatively affect the luciferase production and metabolic activity of cells. Conclusion. The intensification procedure using microwave radiation can be considered a promising method and can provide new ideas for various applications in biotechnology.

Published: November 2021

Objective : Angiolipomas are usually found in the subcutaneous tissue of the trunk and limbs. Spinal angiolipomas (SALs) are uncommon and have rarely been reported. We report a series of nine SALs patients who received surgical treatment in our department. To summarize the clinical characteristics of SALs, propose our surgical strategies, and evaluate the effects of the operation.Methods : This was a retrospective review of nine SALs patients who received surgical treatment from August 2015 to March 2020. Total or subtotal resection was determined by the axial localization (dorsal or ventral) and the extent of intervertebral foramen involvement. The outcomes were assessed based on the modified Japanese Orthopaedic Association (mJOA) scoring system utilized before surgery and at various follow-up points.Results : Among the nine patients, the mean mJOA score before surgery was 6.6±2.3, compared with 10.1±1.1 at the last follow-up time point (33.4±11.8 months). All patients achieved good outcomes, even in cases of subtotal resection.Conclusion : Early surgical resection of SALs is recommended, and the specific procedures should be determined by the axial localization (dorsal or ventral) and the extent of intervertebral foramen involvement. Most of the patients had a good prognosis, even in cases of subtotal resection.

Objective : Despite many advancements in endovascular treatment, the benefits of mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in patients with large infarctions remain uncertain due to hemorrhagic complications. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of recanalization via MT within 6 hours after stroke in patients with large cerebral infarction volumes (>70 mL).Methods : We retrospectively reviewed the medical data of 30 patients with large lesions on initial diffusion-weighted imaging (>70 mL) who underwent MT at our institution within 6 hours after stroke onset. Baseline data, recanalization rate, and 3-month clinical outcomes were analyzed. Successful recanalization was defined as a modified treatment in cerebral ischemia score of 2b or 3.Results : The recanalization rate was 63.3%, and symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage occurred in six patients (20%). The proportion of patients with modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores of 0–3 was significantly higher in the recanalization group than in the non-recanalization group (47.4% vs. 9.1%, p=0.049). The mortality rate was higher in the non-recanalization group, this difference was not significant (15.8% vs. 36.4%, p=0.372). In the analysis of 3-month clinical outcomes, only successful recanalization was significantly associated with mRS scores of 0–3 (90% vs. 50%, p=0.049). The odds ratio of recanalization for favorable outcomes (mRS 0–3) was 9.00 (95% confidence interval, 0.95–84.90; p=0.055).Conclusion : Despite the risk of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage, successful recanalization via MT 6 hours after stroke may improve clinical outcomes in patients with large vessel occlusion.
ESKİ İSTANBUL’DA RAMAZAN VE MAHALLE BEKÇİLERİ

Published: November 2021

Eski Ramazanlarda İstanbul’da hazırlıklar çok öncesinden başlamaktadır. Hem evlerde hem de dış mekânda gerçekleştirilen hazırlıklar için yetişkinler kadar çocuklar da heyecanlanırdı. Mahalle bekçileri Ramazan’da İstanbul’un sokaklarını dolaşırken çocuklar da onlara eşlik eder, böylelikle eğlenceli zaman geçirirlerdi. Hayatın her evresinde mahallelinin yanında olan bekçiler, mahalle halkının saygınlığını kazanması ve fiziki özelliklerinden dolayı genellikle Bekçi Baba olarak anılmaktadırlar. Bekçiler, fiziki özelliklerinin yanı sıra aynı zamanda icralarıyla da dikkat çekmektedir. Mahalle halkı bekçilerin davulu çalarken göstermiş olduğu icrasını da hayranlıkla izlemektedir. Mahalle bekçilerinin Ramazan’da davul eşliğinde söyledikleri fasıllar da mahalle halkı için önem arz etmektedir. İstanbul Büyükşehir Belediyesi Atatürk Kitaplığı’nın 1207 numarasında kayıtlı Destan-ı Bekçi adlı yazma eserde 30 tane Ramazan faslı mevcuttur. Bu yazma eserin müellif kaydı olmadığı gibi müstensihi de belli değildir. İstinsah tarihi H. 1080 yılı Recep ayı olarak belirtilmiştir. Buna göre de nüshanın istinsah tarihi 1669 Kasım/Aralık ayıdır. Eserde mevcut olan fasıllar latinize edilmiştir. Ancak bizden önceki bir çalışmada edisyon kritik yapıldığı için bu makalede sadece fasılların adlarına yer verilmiştir. Diğer nüshalardaki fasıllarla arasında kelime farkı olmasından dolayı fasılları eklemeyi gerekli görmedik. Bu çalışmada, Eski Ramazanlardaki hazırlıklar üzerinde durularak, Ramazanların vazgeçilmez parçası olan mahalle bekçilerinin özellikleri ve onların Ramazandaki etkisine değinilecektir. Ramazan’da mahalle bekçilerinin söylediği fasıllar değerlendirilecektir.
UPDATING THE ENGLISH TEXTBOOK UPSWING ENGLISH IN LINE WITH THE ACTION-ORIENTED APPROACH
Authors: ACAR Ahmet
Published: November 2021

One of the most problematic issues in the ELT textbooks used in public secondary schools in Turkey is their inability to reflect in active practice the principles of the action-oriented approach, which the Turkish ELT curriculum for the primary and secondary schools claims to have adopted. The textbooks, thus, are inefficient, not to mention inadequate, to train social actors, which is a goal set by the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). This paper critically analyses the so-called project at the end of unit 10 in the English textbook Upswing English used in the eighth grades of public secondary schools in Turkey in terms of the action-oriented approach and concludes that the so-called project does not reflect the characteristics of pedagogical projects. The only function of the so-called project is to allow the students to reuse the language content of the unit. Thus, the textbook displays the characteristics of the communicative approach rather than the action-oriented approach. Ultimately, an alternative mini-project design is suggested for unit 10 of the English textbook Upswing English to make the textbook more compatible and consistent with the principles of the action-oriented approach

Esta pesquisa é resultante de reuniões ministradas para o curso de Graduação Licenciatura em Ciências Naturais envolvendo temáticas relacionadas ao Ensino de Química e a Educação Inclusiva, com destaque para a Deficiência Auditiva. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi mapear os trabalhos publicados nos SIMPEQUIs entre 2006 e 2021. A pesquisa teve caráter bibliográfico e procurou demonstrar para licenciandos a questão da Inclusão de alunos com limitações que cruzarão o percurso de sua história profissional. A metodologia utilizada foi a leitura dos registros publicados no evento escolhido, tendo por base os trabalhos publicados com tal temática e discussões realizadas durante o processo de Ensino de Química. Nossos resultados foram categorizamos em cinco partes: Concepções de professores e de alunos de Química; Utilização de simbologia usando LIBRAS, Trabalhos teóricos com referência ao Estado da Arte; Experimentação e Formação de Professores. Concluímos que existem fatores importantes, que interferem de forma significativa na associação, aprendizagem e inclusão de alunos com Deficiência Auditiva em aulas de Química: 1- Solicitação de um Intérprete de LIBRAS; 2- Materiais necessários para que o aluno surdo possa desenvolver habilidades de leitura e escrita; 3- Equipamento da sala de aula, com os recursos visuais; 4- A importância de uma educação inclusiva na formação inicial dos licenciados e a busca de uma formação continuada por professores de Química em relação ao objeto de estudo desta pesquisa; 5- Confecção de materiais de baixo custo pelos próprios alunos, no sentido de valorizar e motivar a turma em geral.
O processo de inculturação durante o proselitismo protestante indígena: um estudo de caso de evangelismo na aldeia Sateré-Mawé
Authors: Silva Marcelo Guedes da
Published: November 2021

Este artigo tem como objetivo investigar uma possível conciliação entre a cultura indígena em um processo de inculturação durante o proselitismo cristão-protestante. Identificando os principais princípios a serem observados pelos índios Sateré-Mawé em sua cultura, através de uma pesquisa de campo nas aldeias próximas ao munícipio de Maués, foi possível estabelecer qual o nível de adaptação que estes vivenciaram, ao migrar sua forma de vida para o cristianismo. A metodologia aplicada foi a de pesquisa descritiva apresentando os resultados obtidos em uma abordagem qualitativa. Essas metodologias possibilitaram o registro a análise de dados, através da aplicação de questionários e entrevistas feitas in loco. Os resultados das análises serão utilizados para apontar uma nova forma de evangelização desses povos em geral. Estabeleceu-se por meio do diagrama de causa e efeito “Ishikawa” o ciclo de planejamento, execução, verificação e ação, que facilitou a observação, coleta de dados e análise das informações obtidas, para que fosse proposto um novo modelo de ação.
Sexualidade da mulher e autocuidado no âmbito da Atenção Primária à Saúde: uma revisão integrativa

Published: November 2021

A sexualidade se apresenta vivenciada e expressa em pensamentos, fantasias, desejos, crenças, atitudes, valores, comportamentos, práticas, papéis e relacionamentos. As mulheres constituem a maioria da população brasileira e são as principais usuárias do Sistema Único de Saúde. Existe uma necessidade de informação acerca dessa temática, tendo em vista que no contexto cultural quando algum problema relacionado à sexualidade aflige as mulheres, elas não têm a quem recorrer. O presente estudo objetivou-se avaliar a sexualidade e autocuidado da mulher na Atenção Primária à Saúde a partir de uma revisão integrativa. A busca foi realizada entre os meses de agosto e setembro, nas bases de dados LILACS, MEDLINE, PUBMED e SciELO, resultando em 440 estudos, destes, foram utilizados 5 artigos. Diante da sistematização do conhecimento na presente abordagem foi perceptível que existe um grande déficit dos cuidados prestados à saúde da mulher, quando observado os cuidados centrados em identificar doenças e solucionar o tratamento. Inexistindo a construção de um cuidado integral por meio das queixas que afetam o bem-estar feminino. Ademais, dialogar acerca da sexualidade com as mulheres ainda representa um tabu, visto que as usuárias se sentem constrangidas em compartilhar suas vivências e os profissionais não estão preparados, representando abordagem pouco discutida e não valorizada. Por fim, torna-se importante identificar profissionais facilitadores desse conhecimento para essa população, auxiliando as mulheres a ter uma liberdade na sexualidade e no autocuidado com o seu corpo.

O consumo de medicamentos impróprios pode ser importante na ocorrência de eventos adversos e gerar prejuízos a saúde dos pacientes. São percebidos que fatores internos e externos, físicos e químicos, possuem capacidade de influenciar na estabilidade dos constituintes e podem mudar a natureza dos desfechos clínicos mediante utilização destes medicamentos. Este trabalho tem por objetivo levantar na literatura sobre as modificações na constituição dos fármacos ao longo do prazo de validade. Trata-se de uma revisão de literatura onde foram realizadas buscas de artigos científicos em bancos eletrônicos da SciELO, LILACS e MEDLINE com palavras chaves concordantes com o DECs. O prazo de validade dos medicamentos é determinado mediante avaliações técnicas e obediência a regulamentos sanitários onde é assegurado que o fármaco está adequado para consumo humano. Após esse período ou desrespeitando essas orientações, é possível que ocorram alterações nas suas constituições que podem provocar intoxicações ou levar a intoxicações como da NET e Sindrome e Steven Jhonson. O consumo medicamentos em condições improprias, ou expirados, têm capacidade de potencializar riscos à saúde e podem promover desfechos sequelantes e letais. Por isso são necessárias medidas e vigilância para o controle da qualidade, da validade, das condições de armazenamento e consumo dos medicamentos.
