Published: May 2022

In this work we present a detailed conception of weather monitoring system which displays weather, cloud and air purity also, we represent it by using graphs and bar graph. In our web application a user can get the weather information upto 7 days. Here we used an Application programming interface (API). An application programming interface, or API, enables companies to open up their applications’ data and functionality to external third-party developers, business partners, and internal departments within their companies. In this framework the climate parameters estimations taken are temperature, moistness, wind course, and wind speed. In this proposed work we will monitor the live weather’s parameter of entire world. With the help of this proposed system, we measure the weather condition of whichever city entered in search bar. After getting results from API(Open weather map), it is observed that our proposed model achieves better results in comparison with the standard weather parameters
Ottoman religious architecture in Croatia
Authors: Gusić Monika
Published: May 2022

Objective: To provide a description and analysis of built, surviving, and lost Ottoman religious monuments in Croatia within the historical and sociopolitical context. Methods: Based on the analysis of relevant published sources, historical maps, online sources, as well as site analysis, we provide a description of Ottoman architectural, religious, and cultural heritage in the contemporary Croatian regions of the Dalmatian hinterland and Slavonia. This includes the art historical interpretation of the remains of the three surviving 16th-century domed mosques in three Croatian towns: Klis (today, the Catholic Church of St. Vitus in the Fortress), Drniš (now incorporated into the Catholic Church of St. Anthony held by the Franciscans), and Đakovo (today, the Catholic Church of All Saints). Results: The period of Ottoman rule saw the construction of a great number of Ottoman religious buildings in what is now the territory of the Republic of Croatia. There were two methods of mosque establishment: from the ground up, or by repurposing an older building, generally of Christian origin. With cessation of Ottoman rule these objects decayed and became less interesting for reutilization for Christian religious purposes. Many such converted objects perished in spite of their new utilization. The site analysis revealed the continuity of these sacred places in spite of religious conversion of the sacral site. Conclusion: The introduction of Ottoman architectural and urbanistic features was the defining feature of urban development in Croatia during the Ottoman era. In the settlements, the Ottomans built both sacral and utilitarian profane buildings, but Ottoman religious buildings were the most prominent. In the territory of present day Croatia, only three such Ottoman places of worship remain in existence as structures, albeit reconverted into Catholic churches. Today, due to the conversion and renovation works, they represent a fusion of several stylistic periods.

Authors: T. A. Ishola , F.B. Akande , I.O. Subair
Published: May 2022

High-quality cassava flour and starch processing are hindered by distance between farms and flash dryers and the deterioration of cassava root after 24 hours of harvest. A vacuum sealer was used to investigate the effect of storage parameters on vacuum sealed cassava mash. The input variables were 5 levels of storage period and 3 levels of moisture contents. The output parameters were pH, total titratable acid, free cyanide and total cyanide. The Analysis of Variance revealed that both factors and their interaction were significant at 5% significance level. The vacuum sealed cassava mash was stored for 10 weeks and it was found that between 0 – 4 weeks there were no marked variation in the properties of pH, total titratable acid, free cyanide and total cyanide. It was observed that after the fourth week of storage pH increased as the moisture content and storage period increased. However, the total titratable acid, free cyanide and total cyanide decreased as the moisture content and storage period increased. This study revealed that cassava root could be harvested, processed into mash within 12 hours and stored in a vacuum sealed polythene bag and its quality will still be intact within four weeks. Hence, vacuum
sealed cassava mash has a shelf-life of four weeks under ambient conditions.

Published: May 2022

Neste artigo, buscamos estabelecer um vínculo entre o trabalho da ideologia com o funcionamento do imaginário na maneira como estão significando as reações nas redes sociais. Para isso, filiados à Análise de Discurso pecheuxtiana (AD), dedicamo-nos a um apanhado teórico do conceito de identificação, partindo primeiramente dos trabalhos de Lacan (1996), e relendo essas definições com as lentes da AD, com base nos estudos de Pêcheux (1990; 1995) e Orlandi (1999; 2005), introduzindo as modalidades subjetivas apresentadas por Pêcheux (1995 [1975]): identificação, contra-identificação e desidentificação. Junto a isso, tecemos algumas palavras a respeito da noção de superidentificação sugerida por Zizek (2010; 2017). O objetivo é recuperar essas discussões teóricas com vistas a analisar os efeitos-reação enquanto modos de (contra/des/super)identificação dos sujeitos aos discursos a que se expõem nas mídias digitais, tendo por material específico de análise uma sequência de fotogramas de um efeito-reação no Facebook, acerca da pandemia de Covid-19, em 2020.

Authors: Webster, MD Lynn , Cater, PhD Jacqueline , Smith, MD Thomas
Published: May 2022

Objective: Evaluate the pupillary-constricting effects following administration of buprenorphine buccal film (BBF) and immediate-release (IR) oxycodone.Design: A double-blind, double-dummy, six-treatment, six-period, placebo-controlled, randomized crossover study.Setting: Single-center, phase 1 exploratory pharmacodynamics.Participants: Healthy individuals who self-identify as recreational opioid users, confirmed via a naloxone challenge test on day 1.Interventions: Placebo: BBF 300, 600, and 900 mcg and IR oxycodone 30 and 60 mg.Main outcome measure: Minute ventilation (measured by the ventilator response to hypercapnia) and pupil diameter (determined via standard pupillometry) were assessed predose and at 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, and 4 hours post-dose. Results: Change from baseline in minute ventilation was moderately correlated with change from baseline in pupil diameter during treatment with BBF (Pearson's r = 0.38-0.40; p ≤ 0.0011) or oxycodone (Pearson's r = 0.34-0.37; p ≤ 0.005). The initial onset of significant (p < 0.05) pupil constriction relative to placebo occurred at 2, 1.5, and 1 hour after dosing with BBF 300, 600, and 900 mcg, respectively, and at 0.5 hours after dosing with oxycodone 30 or 60 mg.Conclusions: Although BBF and IR oxycodone achieved similar levels of pupil constriction, there was a delayed miosis seen with BBF relative to that found with oxycodone.

Authors: Amer, MD Asmaa Fawzy , Al-Ahwal, MD Laila Ahmed
Published: May 2022

Study objective: Evaluating the time to the first request of rescue analgesic after adding either dexmedetomidine or tramadol to intra-articular bupivacaine.Design: A prospective, randomized, control, double-blinded study.Setting: Operating room at Tanta University Hospital.Patients: Sixty adult patients were enrolled and scheduled for knee arthroscopic surgery.Interventions: Post-operative intra-articular injection of dexmedetomidine 1 μg/kg or tramadol 100 mg compared with a control group receiving intra-articular bupivacaine alone.Main outcome: The time to the first request of rescue analgesic, total consumption of analgesic, and post-operative numeric rating scale at 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, and 24 hours post-operatively.Results: The time to the first request of analgesia was comparable between group D and group T with p value 0.84, but it was significantly shorter in group T and group D in comparison with group C, with p value 0.001 for both. Post-operative 24 hours morphine consumption was also comparable between group D and group T with p value 0.17, but it was significantly lower in group T and group D in comparison with group C, with p value 0.001 for both. There was also no significant difference in numeric rating scale between dexmedetomidine group and tramadol group over the 24 hours of the study, but numeric rating scale values were significantly higher in the control group. The incidence of nausea and vomiting was comparable among the three groups. All patients displayed a stable hemodynamic profile.Conclusions: Adding either dexmedetomidine or tramadol as a single dose to intra-articular bupivacaine resulted in the prolongation of the time to the first request of analgesic and reduced the incidence of post-operative pain and post-operative morphine requirement, when compared with the groups receiving intraarticular bupivacaine alone.
HISTOPATOLOGIA DO FIBROADENOMA MAMÁRIO: UMA REVISÃO BIBLIOGRÁFICA
Authors: Cavalheiro Amanda Moura , Silva Beatriz Corrêa Moreira da , Barros Giovanna Caselli , Batista Marjorie Secatto
Published: May 2022

Introdução: O fibroadenoma da mama é uma neoplasia benigna originada no estroma mamário. É o tumor benigno mais comum da mama feminina e ocorre com maior frequência durante o período reprodutivo, podendo ocorrer regressão e calcificação após a menopausa. O tumor forma um nódulo indolor, móvel, bem circunscrito e de crescimento lento, localizando-se mais comumente no quadrante superior lateral da mama. Objetivos: Este trabalho apresenta como objetivo descrever, através de uma revisão bibliográfica atualizada, os padrões e alterações histopatológicas epiteliais e estromais do fibroadenoma mamário. Metodologia: Este é um estudo de revisão bibliográfica, na qual foi realizada uma revisão e análise de literatura sobre histopatologia e diagnóstico do fibroadenoma mamário nas bases de dados PubMed, SCIELO e CAPES, utilizando-se os seguintes descritores, em português e inglês: fibroadenoma, fibroadenoma mamário e histopatologia do fibroadenoma mamário. Resultados: Histologicamente, os achados mostram um espectro muito rico e variado de alterações epiteliais e estromais que podem sofrer modificações ao longo do tempo. Alguns fibroadenomas são hiperplasias policlonais do estroma lobular, respondendo a estímulos específicos, porém, muitos são neoplasias benignas verdadeiras, originadas no estroma intralobular da mama. No fibroadenoma, as células são separadas por material intersticial com desarranjo arquitetural, mas preservando a arquitetura lobulocêntrica. No componente epitelial do fibroadenoma observa-se a dupla população celular como no tecido mamário não-neoplásico. Nota-se alterações epiteliais específicas como metaplasia apócrina, calcificação intraductal e hiperplasia epitelial típica focal ou difusa. A influência etária nos achados histopatológicos é nítida, já que em mulheres mais maduras predomina a menor celularidade e maior hialinização estromal com calcificação e, em mulheres jovens, predomina a celularidade elevada e a maior multiplicidade das lesões. Em cerca de 40% dos fibroadenomas identifica-se outras lesões proliferativas, como adenose esclerosante e alterações papilares císticas, compreendendo os fibroadenomas complexos malignos. Conclusões: A escassez de estudos brasileiros acerca do fibroadenoma mamário mostra-se preocupante, pois se trata de uma neoplasia frequente e com alterações intralesionais passíveis de malignidade. Portanto, faz-se necessário a existência de um maior número de estudos histopatológicos com o objetivo de aprofundar o entendimento do espectro de alterações, facilitando o diagnóstico precoce e o prognóstico do paciente.
A NEUROCISTICERCOSE NO BRASIL E SUA RELAÇÃO COM A EPILEPSIA: UMA REVISÃO INTEGRATIVA.
Authors: Cabedo Ana Isabel De Sousa , Santos Juliana Sousa , Luz Emanuelle Maria Lima da , Santos Giovana Rodrigues
Published: May 2022

INTRODUÇÃO: A neurocisticercose é apontada como problema de saúde pública em todo o mundo por causar prejuízos ao bem estar dos indivíduos. Tal patologia configura-se como uma parasitose que atinge o sistema nervoso central, por meio da ingestão de ovos da Taenia solium, comumente encontrados em água e alimentos contaminados. Essa doença é considerada uma importante causa para o surgimento de epilepsia sintomática, visto que quando a larva penetra no organismo, causa graves lesões. OBJETIVO: Esclarecer acerca da relação entre o desenvolvimento de epilepsia em decorrência da neurocisticercose. MATERIAL E MÉTODOS: Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa, na qual foram efetuadas buscas nas bases de dados: SciElo e Pubmed com os descritores: “Neurocysticercosis”, “Epilepsy”, “Taenia Solium”. Os critérios de inserção foram localizados mediante pesquisas realizadas entre os meses de fevereiro e março de 2022, no qual foram selecionados dez artigos, entre os anos de 2018-2021, nos idiomas inglês e português. RESULTADOS: O estudo foi produzido mediante análise de dez artigos, no qual notou-se que a neurocisticercose é uma patologia prevalente no Brasil, de caráter endêmico. Durante a pesquisa, foram encontrados dados que mostraram a relação entre neurocisticercose e episódios epilépticos, estes ocorrem, principalmente, quando existe uma baixa sensibilidade ao tratamento, e assim, o parasita consegue alojar-se no sistema nervoso central ao atravessar a barreira hematoencefálica. Ademais, os estudos apontaram que após a instalação da larva no cérebro, há formação de fibrose, desenvolvendo um nódulo calcificado, logo, as células imunológicas reagem excessivamente devido a processos irritativos, vasculares e obstrutivos. Consequentemente, leva à obstrução do fluxo de líquido cefalorraquidiano, à hipertensão intracraniana eà hidrocefalia, que são sinais típicos dos quadrosepileptogênicos. CONCLUSÃO: Dessa forma, conclui-se que a neurocisticercose é uma das principais etiologias responsáveis pela alta prevalência de epilepsia no Brasil, uma vez que essa patologia, em diversas áreas do país, possui um caráter endêmico. Nesse meandro, é de extrema relevância que a equipe médica conheça a epidemiologia da região bem como os fatores que levam ao surgimento da neurocisticercose e sua associação com a epilepsia, a fim de realizar uma melhor monitorização dos casos e otimizar seu manejo terapêutico.
A ATROFIA NEURONAL E SUA RELAÇÃO COM A DOENÇA DE ALZHEIMER.

Published: May 2022

Introdução: O Alzheimer é uma patologia neurodegenerativa que afeta o Sistema Nervoso Central por causar atrofia neuronal derivada do acúmulo do peptídeo Beta Amilóide e da proteína Tau. A doença é comumente associada à idade e caracteriza-se pela demência, apresentando sintomas como disfunções na cognição e distúrbios comportamentais e na memória. Objetivo: O objetivo desse trabalho é informar sobre aspectos fisiopatológicos da doença de Alzheimer e esclarecer minimamente como ocorre o seu desenvolvimento. Material e métodos: Trata-se de uma revisão bibliográfica baseada em artigos, escritos em inglês e português, encontrados no PubMed e na Revista Episteme Transversalis no período entre 2020 e 2021. Resultados: Com base nos artigos encontrados, foi possível observar que no mal de Alzheimer evidencia-se agregados do peptídeo Beta Amilóide e uma hiperfosforilação da proteína Tau. O Beta Amilóide é formado a partir da clivagem da proteína precursora amilóide (PPA), processo que pode ocorrer de duas formas, sendo que a via normal, não amiloidogênica, não gera Beta Amilóide. Porém, na via amiloidogênica, a PPA é clivada pela enzima beta-secretase e, posteriormente, pela gama-secretase, tendo como produto um peptídeo com 40 ou 42 aminoácidos que é insolúvel e tende a agregar-se. Esse peptídeo com 42 aminoácidos é tóxico, pois ao se agrupar pode causar alterações na função cognitiva. Ocorre então, em resposta ao grande acúmulo de peptídeos, uma hiperativação de quinases e hipoativação de fosforilases que resultam em um aumento significativo na fosforilação da proteína Tau, o que provoca mobilização da micróglia e liberação de citocinas inflamatórias, causando atrofia neuronal e morte celular. O desenvolvimento de toxicidade impede o transporte axonal, colaborando com o progresso dos déficits cognitivos que evidenciam demência. Conclusão: A partir dessa revisão bibliográfica pode-se concluir que a atrofia neuronal, resultante do acúmulo do peptídeo Beta Amilóide e fosforilação exarcebada da proteína Tau, é uma patologia correlacionada com a doença de Alzheimer e com os déficits cognitivos observados no decorrer da enfermidade.

Development and Validation of a New In-Situ Technique to Measure Total Gaseous Chlorine in Ambient Air
Authors: Furlani Teles C. , Edwards Peter M. , Kahan Tara F. , Young Cora J.
Published: May 2022

Abstract. Total gaseous chlorine (TClg) measurements can improve our understanding of unknown sources of Cl to the atmosphere. Existing techniques for measuring TClg have been limited to offline analysis of extracted filters and do not provide suitable temporal information on fast atmospheric process. We describe high time-resolution in-situ measurements of TClg by combusting ambient air over a heated platinum (Pt) substrate coupled to a cavity ring-down spectrometer (CRDS). The method relies on the complete decomposition of TClg to release Cl atoms that react to form HCl, for which detection by CRDS has been shown to be fast and reliable. The method was validated using custom organochlorine permeation devices (PDs) that generated gas-phase dichloromethane (DCM), 1-chlorobutane (CB), and 1,3-dichloropropene (DCP). The optimal conversion temperature and residence time through the high-temperature furnace was 825 °C and 1.5 seconds, respectively. Complete conversion was indicated by the near unity orthogonal distance regression analysis slope (±σ) of 0.996 ± 0.012, 1.048 ± 0.006, and 1.027 ± 0.061 for DCM, CB, and DCP, respectively. Breaking these strong C-Cl bonds represents a proof of concept for complete conversion of all similar or weaker bonds that characterize all other TClg. We applied this technique to both outdoor and indoor environments and found reasonable comparisons in ambient background mixing ratios with the sum of expected HCl from known Cl species. We measured the converted TClg in an indoor environment during cleaning activities and observed varying levels of TClg comparable to previous studies. The method validated here is capable of measuring in-situ TClg and has a broad range of applications to make routine TClg measurements in a variety of applications.
Propagating characteristics of mesospheric gravity waves observed by an OI 557.7 nm airglow all-sky camera at Mt. Bohyun (36.2° N, 128.9° E)

Published: May 2022

Abstract. We analysed all-sky camera images observed at Mt. Bohyun observatory (36.2∘ N, 128.9∘ E) for the period 2017–2019. The image
data were acquired with a narrowband filter centred at 557.7 nm for the OI airglow emission at ∼ 96 km altitude. A total of
150 wave events were identified in the images of 144 clear nights. The interquartile ranges of wavelength, phase speed and periods of the
identified waves are 20.5–35.5 km, 27.4–45.0 m s−1 and 10.8–13.7 min with the median values of 27.8 km,
36.3 m s−1 and 11.7 min, respectively. The summer and spring bias of propagation directions of north-eastward and northward,
respectively, can be interpreted as the effect of filtering by the prevailing winds in the lower atmosphere. In winter the subdominant
north-westward waves may be observed due to a nullified filtering effect by slow northward background wind or secondary waves generated in the upper
atmosphere. Intrinsic phase speeds and periods of the waves were also derived by using the wind data simultaneously observed by a nearly co-located
meteor radar. The nature of vertical propagation was evaluated in each season. The majority of observed waves are found to be freely propagating
and thus can be attributed to wave sources in the lower or upper atmosphere.
Geophysical analysis of an area affected by subsurface dissolution – case study of an inland salt marsh in northern Thuringia, Germany

Abstract. The subsurface dissolution of soluble rocks, also called subrosion, can affect areas over a long period of time and pose a severe hazard. We show the benefits of a combined approach using P-wave- and SH-wave reflection seismics, electrical resistivity tomography, transient electromagnetics, and gravimetry for a better understanding of the subrosion process. The study area, ’Esperstedter Ried’ in northern Thuringia, Germany, located south of the Kyffhäuser hills, is a large inland salt marsh that developed due to dissolution of soluble rocks at approximately 300 m depth.We were able to locate buried subrosion structures, subrosion zones, faults and fractures, and potential fluid pathways, aquifers and aquitards based on seismic and electromagnetic surveys. Further improvement of the subrosion model was accomplished by analyzing gravimetry data that indicates subrosion-induced mass movement as shown by local minima of the Bouguer anomaly for the Esperstedter Ried. Forward modelling of the gravimetry data, in combination with the seismic results, delivered a cross section through the inland salt marsh from north to south. We conclude that the tectonic movements during the Tertiary, which led to the uplift of the Kyffhäuser hills and the formation of faults parallel and perpendicular to the low mountain range, were the initial trigger for subrosion. The faults and the fractured Triassic and Lower Tertiary deposits serve as fluid pathways for groundwater to leach the deep Permian Zechstein deposits, since subrosion is more intense near faults. The artesian-confined salt water ascends towards the surface along the faults and fracture networks, and formed the inland salt marsh over time. In the past, subrosion of the Zechstein formations formed several, now buried, sagging and collapse structures, and, since the entire region is affected by recent sinkhole development, subrosion is still ongoing. From the results of this study, we suggest that the combined geophysical investigation of subrosion areas can improve the knowledge of control factors, risk areas, and thus local subrosion processes.
Contradictory signal in future surface water availability in Austria: increase on average vs. higher probability of droughts
Authors: Haslinger Klaus , Schöner Wolfgang , Abermann Jakob , Laaha Gregor , Andre Konrad , Olefs Marc , Koch Roland
Published: May 2022

Abstract. In this paper future changes of surface water availability in Austria are investigated. We use an ensemble of downscaled and bias-corrected regional climate model simulations of the EURO-CORDEX initiative under moderate mitigation (RCP4.5) and Paris agreement (RCP2.6) emission scenarios. The climatic water balance and its components (rainfall, snow melt, glacier melt and atmospheric evaporative demand) are used as indicators for surface water availability and we focus on different altitudinal classes (lowland, mountainous and high alpine) to depict a variety of processes in complex terrain. Apart from analysing the mean changes of these components we also pursue a hazard risk approach by estimating future changes in return periods of drought events of a given magnitude as observed in the reference period. The results show in general wetter conditions over the course of the 21st century over Austria on an annual basis compared to the reference period 1981–2010. Considering seasonal differences, winter and spring are getting wetter due to an increase in precipitation and a higher fraction of rainfall as a consequence of rising temperatures. In summer only little changes in the mean of the climatic water balance conditions are visible across the model ensemble. On the contrary, by analysing changes in return periods of drought events, an increasing risk of moderate and extreme drought events during summer is apparent, a signal emerging within the climate system along increasing warming.
Quality control and correction method for air temperature data from a citizen science weather station network in Leuven, Belgium
Authors: Beele Eva , Reyniers Maarten , Aerts Raf , Somers Ben
Published: May 2022

Abstract. The growing urbanization trend and increasingly frequent extreme weather events urge further monitoring and understanding of weather in cities. In order to gain information on these intra urban weather patterns, dense high quality atmospheric measurements are needed. Crowdsourced weather stations (CSW) could be a promising solution to reach such monitoring networks in a cost-efficient way. Because of their non-traditional measuring equipment and installation settings, the quality of these datasets remains however an issue of concern. This paper presents crowdsourced data from the Leuven.cool network, a citizen science network of around 100 low-cost weather stations (Fine Offset WH2600) distributed across Leuven, Belgium.  The dataset is accompanied by a newly developed station specific temperature quality control (QC) and correction procedure. The procedure consists of three levels removing implausible measurements, while also correcting for inter (in between stations) and intra (station-specific) station temperature biases by means of a random-forest approach. The evaluation of the QC is performed using data from four WH2600 stations installed next to official weather stations belonging to the Royal Meteorological Institute of Belgium (RMIB). A positive temperature bias with strong relation to the incoming solar radiation was found between the CSW data and official data. The QC method is able to reduce this bias from 0.15 ± 0.56 °C to 0.00 ± 0.22 °C. After evaluation, the QC method is applied to the data of the Leuven.cool network, making it a very suitable data set to study in detail local weather phenomena such as the urban heat island (UHI) effect.
Climate warming-driven changes in the cryosphere and their impact on groundwater-surface water interactions in the Heihe River Basin
Authors: Triplett Amanda , Condon Laura E.
Published: May 2022

Abstract. The Heihe River Basin in Northwestern China depends heavily on both manmade and natural storage (e.g., surface reservoirs, rivers, and groundwater) to support economic and environmental functions. The Qilian Mountain cryosphere in the upper basin is integral to recharging these storage supplies. It is well established that climate warming is driving major shifts in high elevation water storage through loss of glaciers and permafrost. However, the impacts on groundwater-surface water interactions and water supply in corresponding lower reaches are less clear. We built an integrated hydrologic model of the middle-basin, where most water usage occurs in order to explore the hydrologic response to cryosphere trends. We simulate watershed response to loss of glaciers (Glacier scenario), advanced permafrost degradation (Permafrost scenario), both responses (Combined scenario) and projected temperature increases in the middle basin (Warming scenario) by altering streamflow inputs to the model to represent cryosphere melting processes, as well as by increasing the temperature of the climate forcing data. Net losses to groundwater storage in the Glacier scenario and net gains in Permafrost and Combined show the potential of groundwater exchanges to mediate streamflow shifts. The result of the Combined scenario also shows that permafrost degradation has more of an impact on the system than glacial loss. Seasonal differences in groundwater-surface water partitioning are also evident. The Glacier scenario has the highest fraction of groundwater in streamflow in early spring. The Permafrost and Combined scenarios meanwhile have the highest fraction of streamflow entering the subsurface in late spring and summer. The Warming scenario raises the temperature of the Combined scenario by 2C. A reversal in trend to net groundwater storage loss, and large seasonal changes in evapotranspiration and stream network connectivity relative to Combined show the potential for warming to overpower changes resulting from streamflow. Our results demonstrate the importance of understanding the entire system of groundwater-surface water exchanges to assess water resources under changing climatic conditions. Ultimately, this analysis can be used to examine the cascading impact of climate change in the cryosphere on the resilience of water resources in arid basins downstream of mountain ranges globally.

Abstract. This study aims to assess wildfire hazard in northern Portugal by combining landscape-scale wildfire spread modelling and connectivity analysis to help fuel management planning. We used the Minimum Travel Time (MTT) algorithm to run simulations under extreme (95th percentile) fire weather conditions. We assessed wildfire hazard through burn probability, fire size, conditional flame length and fire potential index wildfire descriptors. Simulated fireline intensity (FLI) using historical fire weather conditions were used to build landscape networks and assess the impact of weather severity in landscape wildfire connectivity (DICW). Our results showed that 27 % of the study area is likely to experience high-intensity fires and 51 % of it is susceptible to spread fires larger than 1,000 ha. Furthermore, the increase in weather severity led to the increase in the extent of high-intensity fires and highly connected fuel patches, covering about 13 % of the landscape in the most severe weather. Shrublands and pine forests are the main contributors for the spread of these fires, and highly connected patches were mapped. These are candidates for targeted fuel treatments. This study contributes to improve future fuel treatment planning by integrating wildfire connectivity in wildfire management planning of fire-prone Mediterranean landscapes.

Drug abuse in young people is a public health problem worldwide. In Mexico it is also a social problem. Methodology: Descriptive, cross-sectional study, the sample was random. A survey and Excel base analysis were used. Objective: Identify knowledge and consumption of drugs in adolescents of basic secondary education. Discussion: Schoolchildren in Mexico have extensive knowledge about drugs, as in other countries in the world. Marijuana is mostly consumed, followed by cocaine, the main factors that led to consumption were problems, friends, curiosity, depression and combinations of these factors. Men are the biggest consumers, starting at 13 years of age. Consumers report that it is not a major problem, but not in all schools. More and more scientific papers are warning about the progressive normalization of the consumption of illicit substances among young people.
PEDAGOGIAS LIBERTÁRIAS LATINO-AMERICANAS: DA PEDAGOGIA DO OPRIMIDO À PEDAGOGIA DECOLONIAL
Authors: Amaro Flávia Ribeiro
Published: May 2022

Desde a década de 1960, a América Latina tem se consolidado como o cenário da mobilização de intelectuais em torno de processos pedagógicos libertários e decoloniais, comprometidos com as lutas por transformações históricas, políticas, econômicas e socioculturais. Tais intelectuais e movimentos sociais dedicados ao fomento da cultura e da educação popular caracterizam-se pela crítica aos processos colonizadores. Desde a Pedagogia do Oprimido até a Pedagogia Decolonial, um movimento de contestação das imposições ideológicas hegemônicas do capitalismo e do colonialismo excludentes tem se intensificado, gerando ressonâncias em diferentes áreas do conhecimento científico. O presente artigo busca identificar interpenetrações entre essas duas correntes de pensamento a partir dos âmbitos da cultura, da educação e da religião.

Published: May 2022

Esse artigo é uma reflexão teórica, fruto de estudos anteriores, relacionados a escolarização de crianças indígenas. Não é nossa intenção apresentar resultados de pesquisa empírica, mas, sim, há a tentativa de travar diálogos que ampliem e problematizem concepções sobre os tempos/espaços das infâncias em suas multiplicidades e singularidades culturais, tomando como orientação as múltiplas maneiras como as crianças indígenas friccionam com a vida, experienciando seus mundos. Nesse intento, nos debruçamos em referenciais teóricos da Sociologia e Filosofia das infâncias, optando por autores que inauguraram esse tipo de abordagem, por entendermos que suas contribuições são originais e atemporais, contribuindo para pluralizar conceitos como: criança, infância e cultura infantil. Dessa forma, esse estudo se endereça à tentativa de colaborar para a construção de uma “Pedagogia Indígena” que reoriente a educação escolar voltada para as infâncias.

CINCO LIÇÕES PAULO FREIRIANAS PARA PENSAR A EDUCAÇÃO E A SITUAÇÃO JUVENIL NA PANDEMIA
Authors: Silva Tarcísio Augusto Alves , Silva Luana Rayza da
Published: May 2022

A pandemia da covid-19 produziu impactos diversos sobre o ambiente educacional. Neste sentido, entendendo que boa parte do público de escolas públicas compreende estudantes jovens, buscamos identificar quais foram os impactos da pandemia da covid-19 sobre eles. O percurso metodológico compreendeu uma pesquisa bibliográfica, realizada por meio da revisão sistemática da literatura, nas bases de revistas brasileiras avaliadas pela Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES). A reflexão produzida, à luz do pensamento freiriano, possibilita-nos reforçar a necessidade de manter um olhar atento sobre esta realidade, assim como exigir que políticas públicas possam ser instituídas de modo a atenuar os impactos futuros do atual contexto na vida desses jovens.

ESCOLA MODELO, PARA QUEM? INVESTIMENTO DISCRICIONÁRIO E IGUALDADE JURÍDICA EM QUESTÃO
Authors: Esquinsani Rosimar Serena Siqueira , Cruz Sobrinho Sidinei
Published: May 2022

O texto analisa a previsão legal da decisão política tomada por algumas administrações públicas quadrienais, quando embasam os programas de governo na área educacional apenas pelo investimento discricionário em escolas diferenciadas para poucos, privando boa parte dos alunos, em igual situação jurídica (matriculados na mesma rede ou sistema público de ensino), de uma educação qualificada. A discussão tem origem na observação da expansão ou avanço quantitativo de ações e políticas educacionais baseadas em escolas-modelo, experimentais ou projetos-piloto, trazendo a supervalorização da singularidade, aplicada a poucas escolas dentro de um mesmo sistema de ensino. O texto apresenta resultados de uma pesquisa de base documental jurídica, pautada por uma metodologia analítico-reconstrutiva, com o procedimento da análise de conteúdo e técnica da análise temática. O corpus de análise é constituído pelas principais leis que regulamentam a educação pública no Brasil enquanto direito universal e previsão de financiamento. Conclui-se que é possível indicar que experiências inovadoras, se não são contrárias à legislação vigente, também não colaboram para o fortalecimento de conceitos e práticas como equidade e igualdade na educação pública, na medida em que tratam de maneira diferenciada sujeitos em situação jurídica análoga, no que concerne ao acesso à educação de qualidade.

Endovenous Laser Ablation (EVLA) for Treatment of Varicose Veins: A Comparison of EVLA with 1470 nm and 1940 nm Lasers
Authors:   The Whiteley Clinic, Stirling House, Guildford, Surrey, UK, Whiteley Mark
Published: May 2022

Introduction: Endovenous laser ablation (EVLA) using 1470 nm, which targets water as its chromophore, has become the standard endovenous thermal treatment for incompetent truncal veins. Recently, there has been growing interest in the use of 1940 nm, due to the greater absorption by water. This increased absorption has led to claims that, with the longer wavelength, less power is needed to achieve the same biological effect during treatment, resulting in fewer adverse post-operative sequelae. Methods: Review of the current literature comparing 1940 nm and 1470 nm EVLA, which includes both laboratory-based and clinical studies. Reports on the use of 1920 nm were combined with those on 1940 nm. Results: Increased absorption of the longer wavelength by water results in more thermal damage closer to the EVLA device. Thus, there may be an advantage to using the longer wavelength in EVLA of thin-walled veins at low power. However, in saphenous veins, which have thicker walls, there is little evidence that this different energy distribution in the vein wall makes any clinical difference. Reduced pain is likely to be due to reduced power during treatment. This is likely to result in more long-term failures of ablation using 1940 nm. Conclusion: There is a difference in the distribution of thermal damage in the vein wall between EVLA at 1470 nm and 1940 nm. However, there is little evidence of any clinically significant difference when used in incompetent saphenous veins. Clinical studies looking for a difference need to report the size and wall thickness of the treated vein, the power used as well as the energy per centimetre (LEED), and long-term ablation rates in addition to early post-operative pain, induration, paraesthesia and ecchymosis. Also, power loss in different laser / fibre systems and technical differences, such as those that might allow blood to remain in the vein being treated, need to be considered.
Proposed method of forecasting cumulative effects of variation in manufacturing
Authors: Risch Quinn
Published: May 2022

Manufacturing, in general, creates a finished good from a set of simpler supplied parts. Supplied parts are installed into higher assemblies, higher assemblies move into even higher assemblies, and eventually this terminates at the finished good. Delays or variation during the manufacturing process ripple all the way to the finished good, possibly from different branches of the build and possibly magnifying any individual effect. There is extensive literature regarding Lean Manufacturing and it provides strategies and business philosophy to deal with variation, however it offers little in the way of quantitative analysis on the effects of that variation upon the whole. Digital Twins and discrete event simulations can and have been used to model the impact of variation in its totality. Various papers on Digital Twins have explored how to model manufacturing, but very little on generalized behavior. (i.e. How schedule slips at the subassemblies impacts the delivery dates / quantities at the finished good level). This paper explores the analytical quantitative effects of input/sales variation through the manufacturing cycle and the resultant effect on the finished good manufacturing schedule/cycle. We demonstrate that even small random variations/interruptions propagate up the build chain, get reduced in magnitude and end up producing predictable reductions in the average build rate of the final product. Additionally, it is shown that the more supplied parts that comprise a finished good the greater the expected reduction in average build rate.

A solid fuel launch vehicle is a rocket with an engine that has been widely used in aerospace missions. Utilizing such launch vehicles depends on the simplicity of the manufacturing, maintenance, operation and development of the control systems. The purpose of optimization in solid fuel launch vehicles design is to find the best possible design for the mission with regard to the available equipment, constraints and infrastructures. Therefore, the main purpose of this research is to optimally design a launch vehicle for customized missions based on successful experiences, as well as technology, manufacturing capabilities and facilities. In this context, NSGA-II Intelligent Optimization Algorithm is considered based on multi-objective optimization principles and Mass-Energetic concepts. The optimal design of the launch vehicle is performed by applying intelligent algorithms and technological opportunities and limitations. The result showed that the present optimization method can design the launch vehicle based on technological limitations.
