Authors: Siqueira Diego Dantas , Lucena Wenner Glaucio Lopes , Viana Dêner Matheus da Silva
Published: August 2023

Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo analisar a influência do disclosure dos fatores de risco no value relevance das empresas brasileiras participantes do novo mercado. Para tanto, foram utilizados dados anuais de empresas não financeiras durante o período de 2016-2020, totalizando 506 observações. O disclosure dos fatores de riscos foi mensurado por meio da análise de conteúdo nos formulários de referência, tomando por base um checklist elaborado a partir das exigências da Instrução Normativa CVM nº 552/2014. Buscando analisar o value relevance dessa divulgação para o mercado brasileiro, foi utilizado o modelo adaptado de Ohlson (1995). Os resultados encontrados por meio da análise de regressão por efeitos fixos demonstraram que as divulgações dos fatores de riscos não apresentaram uma relação significativa com o preço das ações. Portanto, não possuem value relevance. Essas evidências demonstram que os investidores podem não estar considerando este tipo de informação quando estão avaliando os ativos. Desse modo, não foi possível validar a hipótese formulada que o disclosure dos fatores de riscos possui value relevance para o novo mercado da B3. Estes resultados, portanto, demonstram que, no contexto analisado, o empenho dos órgãos reguladores por um aumento na evidenciação dos riscos não trouxe ganho informacional para os stakeholders. Estes achados são relevantes, pois indicam para as empresas a necessidade de reflexões sobre a forma como a informação é evidenciada, fornecendo informações mais específicas que permitam os investidores avaliarem a gravidade dos riscos que as empresas estão expostas.
VIETNAM WAR: REDRAWING OF LOADS THROUGH THE WORKS OF TIM O’ BRIEN’S THE THINGS THEY CARRIED
Authors:   Raiganj University, Sarkar Labani
Published: August 2023

War and memory are interrelated and it represents a verisimilitude approach through the presentation of distinction among legitimate history, intellectual history and the military histories of the war (written history of armed forces, journalist). In the history of War, there are natural tendencies of legitimate historians to hide the discursive history of war (from ground zero) from the ordinary people. Most of time, the physical and psychological pain of battalions during the war , their agony, trauma and frustrations are not penned down and people of the nations(defeated and triumph nations) are unaware of the true history of ground zero. In this paper, I would like to analysis American War on Vietnam through the work of Tim O’Brien. Vietnam War is also known as “War against the Americans to save the Nation” or “American War in Vietnam”. Tim O’Brien is an American novelist and he contributes in the war. He has ranked as a sergeant in military. His semi-autobiographical novel, Things They Carried points out his experiences in the Vietnam War. It is an empathetic, as well as, fictional account of nonfictional story of American soldiers through the jungles of Vietnam. It is a story of loss and love, guilt and fear. In War, soldiers carry their necessary things (physical objects) like matches, Morphine, M-16 Rifles and Candy. After the War, they bring grief, terror, guilt, confusion and the brutality of War as a return gift. After life of War, each soldiers’ physical loss underscores under emotional loss. In this memoir, Tim O’Brien delineates how soldiers carry heavy physical and psychological loads in the War.
EDUCAÇÃO ESPECIAL E INCLUSIVA: AÇÃO DOCENTE ESPECIALIZADA NO PROCESSO DE INCLUSÃO

Published: August 2023

A Educação Especial tem um importante aspecto na sociedade cada vez mais moderna que vem surgindo, servindo como um duplo papel para o complemento do ensino regular, democratizando o ensino para aqueles que por vezes não tiveram como usufruir da educação regular; por outro lado, perpetua a segregação escolar, onde o ensino regular silenciosamente continua sua ação seletiva, sendo uma mão de duas vias, pois seu papel como meio de inclusão, passa a ser distorcido e utilizado como meio de separação e seleção dos alunos. Dessa forma, o presente trabalho tem como objetivo principal compreender a educação especial e inclusiva por meio de ações e práticas pedagógicas. Sendo assim, se aplicou uma revisão bibliográfica de caráter qualitativo documental. As práticas inclusivas baseiam-se na premissa de que os sistemas educativos e as escolas assumem a responsabilidade de organizar o currículo e o ensino em torno de um grupo diversificado de alunos de forma a que o ambiente de aprendizagem seja adequado aos recursos inerentes aos alunos. Todos os alunos trazem valiosos recursos e experiências para a sala de aula. Esses recursos são seus talentos, pontos fortes e habilidades, construídos com base em sua experiência, conhecimento e crenças pessoais. Os professores que entendem os recursos de seus alunos podem sintonizar melhor seu ensino com os recursos que os alunos trazem para a sala de aula. Embora a educação inclusiva inclua crianças de grupos sociais desfavorecidos, dotados e talentosos linguisticamente e minorias étnicas; este artigo se concentra especificamente em crianças com deficiência. Um dos maiores desafios no desenvolvimento de práticas inclusivas para crianças é compreendê-las em termos de seu contexto social e necessidades. Nesse sentido, os professores têm um papel importante. Como professor, é preciso compreender o contexto social, cultural e regional em que os alunos crescem e aceitam a diversidade humana. Uma das qualidades mais importantes que se deve desenvolver na educação inclusiva é ser humano e atender aos requisitos da educação inclusiva.

A catarata é uma doença extremamente prevalente, sendo a maior causa de cegueira do mundo. Sabe-se que a cirurgia conhecida como facectomia com facoemulsificação com implante de lente intraocular pode reverter qualquer cegueira causada pela doença, fazendo com que seja a cirurgia mais realizada atualmente. Sua causa está relacionada com a opacificação de uma estrutura ocular denominada cristalino, responsável principalmente pela acomodação visual. Esse processo patológico impede que os raios de luz cheguem até a retina e formem a imagem adequadamente. Visando o grande impacto que essa oftalmopatia tem na vida de diversas pessoas, esta revisão narrativa de literatura reuniu artigos publicados gratuitamente na base de dados PUBMED, objetivando indicar os principais tipos de catarata. Ao término, concluiu-se que existem quatro principais tipos de catarata: congênita, senil, secundária e traumática. Outras classificações são utilizadas a fim de melhor definir a localização e o grau de acometimento do cristalino do paciente.

Abstract. Anthropogenic trace gases often exhibit interhemispheric gradients because of larger emissions in the northern hemisphere. Depending on a tracer's emission pattern and sink processes, trace gas observations can thus be used to investigate interhemispheric transport in the atmosphere. Vice versa, understanding interhemispheric transport is important for interpreting spatial tracer distributions and for inferring emissions. We combine several datasets from the upper troposphere (UT) to investigate the interhemispheric gradient of sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) covering latitudes from ~80° N to~60° S: canister sampling based measurements from the IAGOS-CARIBIC infrastructure and data from the in-flight gas chromatography instruments GhOST and UCATS. The interhemispheric gradient of SF6 in the UT is found to be weaker than near the surface. Using the concept of a lag time removes the increasing trend from the time series. At the most southern latitudes, a lag time of over 1 year with respect to the northern mid-latitude surface is derived, and lag times decrease over the period 2006–2020 in the tropics and in the southern hemisphere. Observations are compared to results from the two-dimensional AGAGE 12-box model. Based on EDGAR 7 emissions, fair agreement of lag times is obtained for the northern hemisphere, but southern hemispheric air appears too "old". This is consistent with earlier findings that transport from the northern extra-tropics into the tropics is too slow in many models. The influence of the emission scenario and the model transport scheme are evaluated in sensitivity runs. It is found that EDGAR 7 underestimates emissions of SF6 globally and in the southern hemisphere, whereas northern extra-tropical emissions seem overestimated. Faster southward transport from the northern extra-tropics would be needed in the model, but transport from the southern tropics into the southern extra-tropics appears too fast.

Published: August 2023

Abstract. Aerosol-cloud-precipitation-interaction (ACPI) plays a pivotal role in the global and regional water cycle and the earth’s energy budget; however, it remains highly uncertain due to the underlying different physical mechanisms. Therefore, this study aims to systematically analyze the effects of aerosols and meteorological factors on ACPI in the co-located precipitating (PCs) and non-precipitating clouds (NPCs) clouds in winter and summer seasons by employing the long-term (2001–2021) retrievals from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM), and National Center for Environmental Prediction/National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCEP/NCAR) reanalysis-II datasets over the Indo-Gangetic Plains (IGP). The results exhibit a decadal increase in aerosol optical depth (AOD) over Lahore (5.2 %), Delhi (9 %), Kanpur (10.7 %) and Gandhi College (22.7 %) and decrease over Karachi (-1.9 %) and Jaipur (-0.5 %). The most stable meteorology with high values of lower tropospheric stability (LTS) is found in both seasons over Karachi. In summer season the occurrence frequency of clouds is high (74 %) over Gandhi College, 60 % of which are PCs. Conversely, the least number of PCs are found over Karachi. Similarly, in winter season, the frequency of cloud occurrence is low over Karachi and high over Lahore and Gandhi College. The analysis of cloud top pressure (CTP) and cloud optical thickness (COT) indicate high values of cloud fraction (CF) for thick and high-level clouds over all study areas except Karachi. The micro-physical properties such as cloud effective radius (CER) and cloud droplet number concentration (CDNC) bears high values (CER > ~ 15 µm and CDNC > ~ 50 cm-3) for both NPCs and PCs in summer. The AOD-CER correlation is good (weak) for PCs (NPCs) in winter. Similarly, the sensitivity value of the first indirect effect ( FIE ) is high (ranged from 0.2 ± 0.13 to 0.3 ± 0.01 in winter, and from 0.19 ± 0.03 to 0.32 ± 0.05 in summer) for PCs and low for NPCs. Sensitivity value for second indirect effect (SIE) is relatively high (such as 0.6 ± 0.14 in winters and 0.4 ± 0.04 in summer) than FIE. Sensitivity values of the aerosol-cloud interaction (ACI) are low (i.e., -0.06 ± 0.09) for PCs in summers. Furthermore, the precipitation rate (PR) exhibits high values in summer season, and PR values are found high in comparatively thin clouds with fewer CDNC (< ~ 50 cm-3) and intermediate for optically thick clouds with higher CDNC (> ~ 50 cm-3 ).
Control of the temperature signal in Antarctic proxies by snowfall dynamics

Published: August 2023

Abstract. Antarctica, the coldest and driest continent, is home to the largest ice sheet, whose mass is predominantly recharged by snowfall. A common feature of polar regions is the warming associated with snowfall, as moist oceanic air and cloud cover increase the surface temperature. Consequently, snow accumulated onto the ice sheet is deposited under unusually warm conditions. Here we use a polar-oriented regional atmospheric model to study the statistical difference between average and snowfall-weighted temperatures. During snowfall, the warm anomaly scales with snowfall amount, with strongest sensitivity at low accumulation sites. Heavier snowfall in winter contributes to cool the annual snowfall-weighted temperature, but this effect is overwritten by the event-scale warming associated with precipitating atmospheric systems, which particularly contrast with the extremely cold conditions in winter. Consequently, the seasonal range of snowfall-weighted temperature is reduced by 20 %. On the other hand, annual snowfall-weighted temperature shows 80 % more interannual variability than annual temperature, due to irregularity of snowfall occurrence and their associated temperature anomaly. Disturbance in apparent annual temperature cycle and interannual variability have important consequences for the interpretation of water isotopes in precipitation, which are deposited with snowfall and commonly used for paleo-temperature reconstructions from ice cores.

Compreender a dinâmica evolutiva dos capões na paisagem pode subsidiar estratégias de conservação dos ecossistemas de turfeiras em montanhas tropicais e detalhar como diferentes elementos interagem na formação da paisagem. Estudou-se um ecossistema de turfeira na nascente do Rio Preto, em uma superfície de aplainamento conhecida como Chapadão do Couto, no Parque Estadual do Rio Preto (São Gonçalo do Rio Preto, MG) sob altitude de 1.600 m. Analisou-se dois capões de mata com predomínio de floresta estacional semidecidual, um inserido totalmente dentro da turfeira e outro na transição para o Campo Limpo Seco. O propósito foi investigar variações na quantidade e fracionamento de serapilheira aportada em cada fragmento florestal em diferentes épocas do ano, para evidenciar respostas da floresta às distintas condições de inserção na turfeira e como isso afeta a dinâmica de equilíbrio funcional do ecossistema. Quatro coletas de serapilheira foram realizadas no interior dos capões (jun./2018 a fev./2019) por meio da instalação de coletores de 1 m 2 confeccionados com tela de sombrite, suspensos a uma altura de 50 cm. Observou-se uma dinâmica de interações com padrões distintos entre os capões, sendo verificadas variações na serapilheira com relação à intensidade e à quantidade da deposição e dinâmica de deciduidade, está mais associada às condições de umidade do solo do que à temperatura na superfície e outros aspectos da matéria orgânica do solo.

Objective: To determine the relationship between alcoholism and changes in amygdala morphology on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Subject and method: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted from January 2020 to June 2022 at Thai Nguyen National Hospital. The Stepwise AIC method was used to determine the optimal model related to the volume of the amygdale. Result: A total of 140 male patients were selected to participate in the study with a ratio of alcohol addicted to non-alcohol addicted being 1:1. The optimal model suggested a statistically significant relationship between alcohol addiction status and the aforementioned volume measurements. In addition, the intracranial volume was found to be positively correlated with amygdale volume. However, age was found to have a negative correlation with amygdale volume on the left side, but the correlation between age and amygdale volume on the right side was not statistically significant. Conclusion: Our study provides evidence of a relationship between alcohol addiction status and lower amygdale volume.

Published: August 2023

Advances in the control of infectious diseases have contributed to increasing life expectancy. As a result, the aging population has increased. Data shows that there were 771 million elderly in 2022, which is estimated to increase to 1.6 billion in 2050. This condition causes changes in disease patterns that lead to diseases related to age and aging. Recently, nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) has received much attention. Therefore, the authors made this review article using the literature review method to describe role of NMN as an anti-aging modality and prevention of disease associated with a decrease in nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Decreased NAD+ levels occur through several mechanisms, including activation of PARP-1 by oxidative stress, consumption of NAD+ by CD38 enzymes and sirtuins, injury induced by sterile alpha and toll/interleukin receptor motif-containing protein 1 (SARM1) in axon degeneration, and increased mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT). NMN can increase NAD+ levels in the Salvage and Preiss-Handler pathways so that they will make a positive impact on aging, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, obesity, cerebral ischemia, heart disease, and type 2 diabetes. The administration of NMN in low doses does not cause significant side effects.

Evaluation of the Uniaxial Compressive Strength of Gneiss from Southern Togo from Non-Destructive Tests
Authors: Kessie Ezouwè , Pachoukova Irina , P’kla Abalo
Published: August 2023

The mechanical and physical characteristics of rocks hold significant importance across various realms of research and engineering, particularly in the field of Civil Engineering. The utilization of rocks as construction materials hinges on several of their mechanical traits (Los Angeles, Micro Deval under water presence, Young's Modulus, Compression Strength) as well as physical attributes (homogeneity, porosity, etc.). Tests for determining certain of these characteristics are expensive, challenging, and time-consuming. Among these attributes, mention can be made of determining compression strength, which necessitates substantial equipment for proper sample preparation. This renders the process very costly, laborious, and leads to the complete destruction of samples during experimental measurements.
Our objective in this study is to assess the uniaxial compression strength of gneiss from southern Togo using non-destructive testing. This would help mitigate the relatively high costs associated with this test. To address this issue, the development of new methods for determining this test using non-destructive testing approaches is necessary. Among the most commonly used reference techniques for characterizing materials and determining their physical and mechanical properties are non-destructive evaluation techniques based on ultrasonic wave propagation and rebound hammer testing.
The adopted methodological approach involves the collection of rock samples (amphibole and biotite gneiss) from 33 sites in southern Togo, their proper sampling, and the execution of various tests on the obtained samples. The obtained results have facilitated the examination of several approaches, notably the ANFIS model (Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System) and the MLR model (Multiple Linear Regression), for predicting the uniaxial compression strength value based on the sclerometer index and the ultrasonic wave propagation velocity (in parallel or perpendicular orientation to the foliations).
It emerges from the ANFIS model, combining ultrasonic waves in the perpendicular orientation to the foliations and the sclerometer index, that the uniaxial compression strength can be predicted with an R² of 0.9884, an RMSE of 2.9271, a MAPE of 1.160, and a VAF of 98.83. In comparison, the MLR model yields an R² of 0.9832, an RMSE of 3.686, a MAPE of 1.402, and a VAF of 98.22. The derived ANFIS models can be utilized to estimate the uniaxial compression strength of gneiss in Togo and beyond.

Authors: Mathew Twinkle
Published: August 2023

Thumb sucking is a behavioral habit disorder. Thumb sucking is considered as a normal developmental phase but may become a habit in some children. It can be due some insecurities, boredom, and loneliness experienced by the child and may develop after the birth of sibling. Persistent sucking of thumb or fingers in older children is a cause of concern as it may lead to dental malocclusion, soreness of fingers or thumb, and speech difficulties. Homoeopathy offers effective and safe treatment for thumb sucking in children. In this article an attempt is made to explain thumb sucking in children and its homoeopathic management.

Immunology in COVID-19
Authors: M S Anjali , B S Raghavendra
Published: August 2023

So far, no effective vaccines or medicines have been licensed to prevent or treat the virus's rapid and global spread, urgent research is required to find preventative and therapeutic medicines. Treatments that target the immunopathology of SARS-CoV-2 infection have been a key focus in this respect.
While a fast and well-coordinated immune response is the first line of defense against viral infection, an overly inflammatory innate response and a weakened adaptive host immunological response can cause tissue damage both at the site of virus entry and at the systemic level. Several investigations have identified significant alterations in the innate and adaptive immune systems in COVID-infected people.
The enormous production of cytokines and chemokines, known as a "cytokine storm," plainly shows an uncontrolled dysregulation of the host immunological response. Although the idea of preventing cytokine storms is appealing, one important drawback is the lack of knowledge about the immunological signaling pathways triggered by SARS-CoV-2 infection. The discovery of altered signaling pathways during viral infections may aid in the deciphering of the most important molecular cascades involved in biological processes driving viral infections, as well as the identification of key molecular actors that might be targeted.
Given the immune system's central involvement in COVID-19, a better understanding of the mechanism behind immunological dysregulation might lead to better therapeutic care of severe instances and the prevention of the disease's progression from moderate to severe. COVID-19 and supportive therapy remain the current standard of care.

Published: August 2023

Esta obra presenta hallazgos de un proyecto de investigación sobre las trayectorias escolares de estudiantes de la cohorte 2019 de un bachillerato tecnológico en el estado de Morelos. Este estudio va más allá de la recopilación de resultados escolares característica de la estadística educativa básica; también da cuenta de quiénes son los adolescentes que llegaron a inscribirse al plantel, sus expectativas, sus escuelas de procedencia, su composición familiar, sus hábitos de estudio, su proyecto de vida, su satisfacción con la formación obtenida en el plantel y sus aspiraciones al momento de egresar del bachillerato. Es oportuno advertir que la trayectoria escolar de los jóvenes estudiantes de la que se da cuenta en esta obra se vio obstaculizada por un fenómeno inédito y, por ende, inesperado: la pandemia y el confinamiento derivados del covid-19 que contrajeron toda la actividad escolar. Y, sin embargo, esa misma situación abrió una ventana para observar, conocer e interpretar otro tipo de fenómenos y problemas aparejados con la emergencia sanitaria y que implantaron una modalidad de trabajo durante cuatro semestres: la escolarización remota emergente. Entre los méritos de este texto, podríamos considerar la escasez de este tipo de trabajos en la educación media superior, el ser una aproximación local desarrollada por docentes del plantel, y el haber logrado acompañar a los integrantes de la cohorte en su trayecto escolar durante los tres años de sus estudios de bachillerato.

As a result, additional obligations were added to their routines which increased their workload and put them at risk of developing burnout. Purpose: To study the level of burnout among public health inspectors before and during the COVID-19 pandemic and to make a comparative analysis of the results in view of the inspectors’ increased workload in the time of the pandemic. Materials and methods: Three studies of public health inspectors from the system of the Regional Health Inspectorate were conducted: two burnout studies using the Maslach Burnout Inventory in 2019 and 2021 (respectively of 62 and 61 persons) and a questionnaire survey of 116 subjects in 2020-2021 on the workload level. Results: During the pandemic, a considerable increase in the values of the three questionnaire aspects was observed. The highest level of emotional exhaustion was reported in the 31-44 age group with work experience of 11-20 years (88%), whereas the highest level of depersonalization and the lowest of personal accomplishment were identified in the over 55 age group (50% and 92%). In 2019 around 38.7 % of health inspectors were at a high risk of burnout, while in 2021, the number increased to 73.7%. Conclusions: During the pandemic, the share of health inspectors at risk of burnout has significantly increased. Therefore, early intervention and prevention of the syndrome are needed.

Теологиялык билим берүү түшүнүгү Кыргызстанда эгемендүүлүктү алгандан кийин пайда болду. Бир гана Кыргызстанда эмес, бул жалпы эле КМШ өлкөлөрүндөгү көрүнүш. Борбордук Азия мамлекеттеринин ичинде теология жогорку билим берүү деңгээлинде алгачкы жолу Кыргызстандын Ош мамлекеттик университетинде 1993-жылы башталган. Эгемендүүлүктүн 30 жылында теология факультеттеринин саны бешке чыкты. ОшМУ бир гана факультет менен чектелбей, мында үч теология колледжи менен эки Ыйман гимназиясы да ачылды. Учурда мамлекеттик билим берүү мекемелеринде теологиялык билим берүү кулачын жайып жатканын айтууга болот. Жогоруда аталган мекемелерден 24 жылдын ичинде миңден ашык бүтүрүүчү аяктаганы да маалым. Бул жагдай теологиялык билим берүүнүн кыргыз коомунда өз ордун тапкандыгын жана популярдашып жаткандыгын көрсөтүп турат десе болот.

Syphilis facilitates both HIV transmission and acquisition, reflecting the complex interplay between the two infections. Scarce information exists regarding syphilis epidemiology in Nigeria. Thus, this study determined the sero-prevalence of syphilis among people attending ART Clinic Ndagiri primary health care centre Gwagwalada area of Federal Capital Territory Abuja Nigeria. A cross-sectional study was conducted from July to September, 2019. 290 HIV–infected participants were studied; but individuals under 20 years of age and above 60 years were excluded. Structured questionnaires were used to collect data on socio-demography. Moreover, blood samples were collected from all participants and screened for syphilis using rapid test kit, and those found sero-positive were confirmed using Polymerase Chain Reaction assay (PCR).Out of 290 samples collected and analyzed, result shows the general prevalence of 0.35% among ART patients in UATH. In regards to sex, 0.52% prevalence was recorded with a significant P-value of 0.04. 0.65% prevalence was however recorded among age group 31-40 with an insignificant P-value 0.09. A higher prevalence was found among singles with 1.24% which was still insignificant with a P-value of 0.095. Conclusively, despite this low prevalence recorded, awareness campaigns, Syphilis screening and testing service with HIV/AIDS care is critically needed which could limit the clinical consequences of untreated Syphilis as well as its adverse impact on HIV transmission.
