Sabemos que nos dias atuais os hábitos alimentares da população estão cada vez mais inadequados, as pessoas procuram por praticidade e não por qualidade de nutrientes, sendo assim a alimentação inadequada tem interferido na qualidade de vida da população e o acompanhamento nutricional é imprescindível para a pessoa ter uma qualidade de vida. Rastreamento metabólico é um questionário que foi elaborado pelo Instituto Brasileiro de Nutrição Funcional (IBNF). É utilizado para investigar variados sinais e sintomas, contexto que o paciente dará sua pontuação de acordo com o que está sentindo nos últimos dias de acordo com a tabela de escala de pontos. No final do questionário, esses pontos são somados e interpretados de acordo com a tabela de resultados do IBNF. O objetivo do estudo foi verificar melhora de sinais e sintomas em grupos de emagrecimento composto por colaboradores de um centro universitário do Oeste do Paraná. O grupo contou com 8 participantes, todas do sexo feminino, com idades entre 18 e 60 anos. As participantes passaram por avaliação nutricional e foram acompanhadas por dez semanas. Nesse período, estas participaram de palestras, dinâmicas e conversas em grupos. Nos encontros semanais foram abordados assuntos pertinentes que colaborariam com uma melhora nos hábitos alimentares, com o objetivo de emagrecimento. No primeiro encontro, as participantes responderam três questionários, entre eles o Questionário de Rastreamento Metabólico (QRM). Após a análise da somatória dos resultados, foi possível verificar e interpretar os dados podendo observar a melhora de 48,29% dos sinais e sintomas, uma vez que no primeiro encontro a somatória total de 5 participantes foi >40 indicativos de absoluta certeza de hipersensibilidade e de 3 participantes foi >100 indicativos de que a pessoa está com a saúde muito ruim. Já no décimo encontro podemos verificar que a somatória total de 5 participantes foi <30 indicando que a pessoa está com menos sinais e sintomas, de 2 pessoas foram >40 indicativos de absoluta certeza de hipersensibilidade e de 1 pessoa foi >100 indicativos de que a pessoa está com a saúde muito ruim. Pode–se observar que houve melhora significativa nos sinais e sintomas das participantes quando submetidas a um acompanhamento nutricional. Deste modo, é notório que o acompanhamento nutricional é imprescindível para promoção e prevenção de doenças.

Vários são os fatores de risco para doenças cardiovasculares, como por exemplo: sobrepeso/obesidade, sedentarismo, estresse, fatores genéticos, hipertensão arterial, tabagismo, idade, diabetes mellitus, dislipidemias, dentre outros. A partir dessa prerrogativa, o objetivo do trabalho foi analisar a composição corporal e a incidência de doenças cardiovasculares ou doenças crônicas não transmissíveis associadas às mesmas, de indivíduos adultos internados em um hospital no oeste do Paraná. A pesquisa se utilizou de dados coletados de prontuários de pacientes de ambos os sexos, com idade entre 40 e 90 anos, que apresentavam doenças cardiovasculares ou doenças crônicas não transmissíveis. Além da incidência de doenças, os dados de composição corporal como peso, altura e dobras cutâneas, também foram coletados. Os resultados foram expressos por meio de estatística descritiva e quantitativa e analisados pelos testes de Shapiro-Wilk., Mann-Whitney-U, teste T, Qui-quadrado, ANOVA e pelo teste de Correlação de Spearman com o grau de significância de 5%. A maior incidência patológica nos indivíduos era de hipertensão arterial. Os resultados mostraram que quanto mais a idade avança, menor é o peso do indivíduo e também a circunferência do braço. Ainda, indivíduos com menor Estatura demonstraram possuir maiores valores de Prega Cutânea Tricipital. O índice de massa corporal e o peso apresentaram maiores médias para quem possuía até duas patologias associadas. No entanto, possuir uma ou mais patologias não diferiu entre indivíduos avaliados para estas variáveis. Essas doenças fazem parte das principais causas de morbidade e mortalidade no mundo e mudanças de peso e maior acúmulo de gordura corporal aumentam o risco para o seu acontecimento.

A Síndrome metabólica é considerada uma doença crônica não transmissível complexa, associada a um conjunto de riscos cardiometabólicos, dentre eles: dislipidemias, intolerância à glicose, resistência à insulina, hipertensão e obesidade.  Objetivos: Avaliar a prevalência de Síndrome Metabólica e o perfil nutricional de pacientes obesos cardiopatas de um Hospital Universitário. Estudo transversal com 33 pacientes obesos cardiopatas de um hospital universitário de Campo Grande – MS. Avaliou-se: peso, altura, circunferência da cintura, inquérito de frequência alimentar, pressão arterial, glicose em jejum, níveis séricos de HDL-c e de triglicerídeos. Para prevalência da SM utilizou-se critérios do National Cholesterol Education Program’s Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP-ATP III, 2002). Foi utilizado o software SPSS, considerando nível de significância de 5%. Resultados: O tipo de cardiopatia e co-morbidade mais frequentes foram Infarto Agudo do Miocárdio (30,3%) e a hipertensão (36,6%), respectivamente. Quanto ao perfil nutricional, clínico e bioquímico, todos os participantes apresentaram elevados níveis de circunferência da cintura, de glicose de jejum e de triglicerídeos, bem como, reduzido nível de HDL-c, porém sem diferença significativa entre os grupos adultos e idosos. Não foram identificadas diferenças significativas no consumo alimentar entre os grupos avaliados. Verificou-se alta prevalência de Síndrome Metabólica nos obesos cardiopatas avaliados (84,85%), sendo 85,71% entre os adultos e 100% entre os idosos. Conclusões: A associação de alterações no perfil nutricional, clínico e bioquímico, que caracterizaram a alta prevalência de síndrome metabólica nos pacientes avaliados, juntamente com os fatores hereditários, reforçam a necessidade de implantação de medidas preventivas para atenuar essa condição.

Published: June 2020

El presente artículo, fruto de un ejercicio investigativo al interior de la ECSAN, tiene como objetivo fortalecer las habilidades psicosociales de los policías para mejorar la prestación de su servicio y aumentar la confianza social. La Policía Nacional debe estar en capacidad de responder a las necesidades que la comunidad plantea de forma adecuada y oportuna, por lo cual debe tener las suficientes herramientas para percibir, controlar y expresar emociones, tanto propias como ajenas. Es por eso que el fortalecimiento de las habilidades psicosociales, dentro de las cuales se encuentran la comunicación asertiva, la inteligencia emocional y demás tipos de inteligencia, como la resolución de conflictos y la empatía, deben ser elementos diferenciadores dentro de la capacitación policial. Como aporte significativo de la investigación se propone el diseño de un diplomado en habilidades psicosociales dirigido al personal de policía.

Authors: Cárdenas Valencia Carlos Andrés , Castañeda Patiño Juan Carlos
Published: June 2020

En este documento se presenta un análisis de la respuesta bioeléctrica que exhiben los estudiantes, de cursos de circuitos y física mecánica de la Universidad del Quindío, cuando están en clase y son sometidos a diferentes estímulos generados por la mediación pedagógica. Para ello se implementó un dispositivo que permitió medir la respuesta galvánica de la piel (GSR) y el pulso cardiaco, utilizando una tarjeta Arduino. Estas respuestas fueron medidas en diferentes clases, en las cuales el docente exponía los conceptos, presentaba imágenes, y realizaba diferentes preguntas a los estudiantes. Los datos obtenidos se graficaron en el software MATLAB®. El análisis realizado a las gráficas obtenidas permitió evidenciar que las exposiciones magistrales, la presentación de gráficas y las preguntas grupales dentro de las clases no generan cambios en la respuesta galvánica de la piel (GSR) ni en el pulso cardiaco de los estudiantes, mientras que las preguntas individuales exhibieron cambios sustanciales en la respuesta de las señales bioeléctricas medidas.

Authors: BILGIC Hasan Huseyin , GUVENC Mehmet Ali , CAKIR Mustafa , MISTIKOGLU Selcuk
Published: June 2020

In machining technologies, the most important criterion taken into consideration when evaluating the product quality is seen as the surface roughness. In the consideration of production quality and cost, tool wear is one of the factors that directly affect the cost of production. In the machining process, the most important parameters affecting the surface roughness and tool temperature are the cutting depth, speed and feed rate of rotation. In order to obtain the best surface quality and to keep the cost at the optimum level, the most suitable processing parameters should be selected by taking into consideration the effect of these parameters on each other.  In this study, it is aimed that to prediction of surface roughness (Ra.) and tool temperature (°C) values for turning which has an important position in machining. For this purpose, Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) method and Multi Linear Regression Model (MLRM) were used separately. The data obtained from ANN, Regression Model were compared with the actual test data, and the results were examined. According to the obtained results, it is seen that the ANN method has more successful results than Regression model in surface roughness and tool temperature estimation.
Study Abroad as a Transformational Experience and Its Effect upon Study Abroad Students and Host Nationals in Santiago, Chile
Authors: Stephenson Skye
Published: June 2020

In the last decade, increasing numbers of students have chosen to study abroad. An underlying premise of many of these programs to “nontraditional destinations” is that exposure to these often quite different cultures and living conditions promotes a more positive understanding of the “other.” To date, however, there has been little analysis of the actual impact of the study abroad experience upon participants’ cultural perceptions and personal values. What aspects of values appear to change the most as a result of study abroad? How do interactions with host nationals affect the students’ views of both themselves and the “other”? Does the presence of foreign students affect members of the host society who have extended contact with them? Is the outcome of the exchange experience in terms of cross-cultural understanding any different for participants in study abroad programs located in countries with lower living standards than their home?

The purpose of this study is to examine the questions raised above in one specific setting—Santiago, Chile. It explores the effect that the study abroad experience has had upon three distinct groups’ cultural perceptions and personal values: the study abroad students themselves, their Chilean host families, and selected university professors.
Seventh-Century Ireland as a Study Abroad Destination
Authors: Ireland Colin
Published: June 2020

In order to reconstruct the life of “study abroad students” in seventh-century Ireland I rely primarily on three sources. The first two sources are the English churchmen Aldhelm and Bede. Aldhelm (d.709), abbot of Malmesbury and later bishop of Sherborne, was the first Anglo-Saxon man of letters. Fortunately, at least two letters by him to Anglo-Saxon students who studied in Ireland survive. Bede (d.735), a priest at Wearmouth-Jarrow, was the greatest of the Anglo-Saxon men of letters. He wrote a history of the Anglo-Saxon Church (Historia Ecclesiastica [HE]), cited frequently in this article, which often notes the relationships between the English and the Irish in the seventh century. As English clerical scholars, Aldhelm and Bede are eager to promote the Church of Rome and Anglo-Saxon England’s role in its growth. Nevertheless, they frequently acknowledge the Irish contribution to English Church history and Anglo-Saxon learned culture. Bede tells us, for example, that Irish schools provided English students with free books and free instruction. My third major source is the Hisperica Famina1 “Western Sayings,” a cryptic Latin text written in Ireland by, or about, foreign students sometime probably between c.650 and c.665. The Hisperica Famina are secular in tone and give us our most intimate
College Students with Disabilities and Study abroad: Implications for International Education Staff
Authors: Hameister Brenda G. , Matthews Peter R. , Hosley Nathaniel S. , Groff Margo Coffin
Published: June 2020

Students with disabilities are underrepresented in study abroad. This article outlines five concepts that are important when seeking to include students with disabilities in study abroad—individualization, barriers and accommodations, disability spread, inclusion, and collaboration. The article addresses frequently asked questions about disability issues and presents two vignettes of students with disabilities interested in study abroad. It is emphasized that students with disabilities are, first and foremost, students. As significant as a student’s disability may appear to be, it often has relatively little significance to study abroad. If international educators are to be successful in serving students with disabilities, they must work closely with others, especially disability services staff.
Evaluation and Study Abroad: Developing Assessment Criteria and Practices to Promote Excellence
Authors: Gillespie Joan , Braskamp Larry A. , Braskamp David C.
Published: June 2020

This paper describes how the authors worked with a Task Force to develop the IES Model Assessment Practice (MAP), a set of detailed criteria to use in evaluating IES study abroad programs, and how IES is beginning to implement MAP. Two sets of theories provided the framework for the project: current thinking about educational program evaluation and assessment in the U.S., including current definitions of academic quality; and organizational learning, whereby the processes of planning and decision-making involve members of the organization in gathering, sharing, and interpreting information. The 18-month project was sponsored by IES, The Institute for the International Education of Students (formerly the Institute of European Studies). With this publication, we propose that study abroad practitioners join a dialogue about program evaluation and share models of good practice for the benefit of our students.
Australian Studies and Study Abroad
Authors: Curthoys Ann
Published: June 2020

Australian studies centres overseas have usually found, however, that student interest in their courses has been modest. With its small population, relatively healthy economy, and fairly quiet politics, Australia for most of the world does not present significant economic or strategic threats or opportunities. It is not surprising, then, that the study of Australia has not been significant outside Australia itself. Despite the praiseworthy efforts of the proponents of Australian studies in Asia, Europe, and North America, international understanding of Australian culture and society is still extremely limited. In this context, the growth of study abroad programs of various kinds has presented an exciting development for Australian studies.

Service Learning in an International Context
Authors: Annette John
Published: June 2020

Service learning is an important form of learning in higher education in the United States and the United Kingdom, and increasingly in universities internationally. Service learning is defined as an experiential learning program where students learn through engaging in service in partnership with a local community. It involves reflective learning activities which enable a student to develop key skills and capabilities, and a greater sense of civic awareness and active citizenship. The experience should be of sufficient length to enable students to benefit fully from it, and they must be challenged to be reflective and to link their learning to their college curriculum.
Internships Abroad: The View from Paris
Authors: Honigsblum Gerald
Published: June 2020

The following observations result from eleven years of experience in the field, more specifically in France, a setting that raises particularly challenging and probing questions. France ranks high among the nations most resistant to deregulation as well as strong on cultural exception, endowed with a combative attitude about the supremacy of the French language, and nurtured by a checkered relationship with America and its hegemony: no two countries compete more earnestly in their respective attempts to influence the world. Some two million French students serve as interns as part of their education. No other European country comes anywhere near this statistic.

Academic Information System is the name of an information system used for academic activities at Abdurrab University and also known as SIMAK. Abdurrab University has been implementing Academic Information Systems since 2016, but in the application of this system there are still some obstacles so that it will affect what is to be achieved, one of which is user satisfaction. In this study the method used is the Service Quality method with measurements based on dimensions of service quality which include Tangible, Reliability, Responsibility, Assurance and Empathy. The purpose of this study was to determine how much influence the quality of Academic Information Systems on user satisfaction using the Servqual method with the IBM SPSS Statistics 24.0 tool. This research is a quantitative research using survey method. The technique in sampling in this study is to use non-probability techniques or using the Quota Sampling Technique. In this case the formula used in sampling is the Slovin formula, so this study obtained a sample size of 96 respondents. Based on the evaluation results it can be concluded that the Empathy variable significantly influences user satisfaction by 44.8%, while simultaneously Tangible, Reliability, Responsiveness, Assurance and Empathy variables together have a significant influence on user satisfaction at the significance level α = 10% .
Umbilical Cord Hernia Associated with a Patent Urachus: A Case Report
Authors: SC María , LE Pedro-José , PS Marina , AM Carolina
Published: June 2020

An umbilical cord hernia (UCH) is a form of abdominal wall defect, affecting 6 out of every 10,000 newborns. The persistence of urachus is an embryonic remnant that connects the bladder to the abdominal wall at the level of the umbilicus, being yet more uncommon. We reviewed the literature, searching in PubMed, under the terms “Hernia of umbilical cord”, “Congenital hernia of cord” and “Persistent Urachus”. Only a few similar cases of both pathologies associated described were found. Our main objective is to highlight the distinct clinical features, embryogenesis, prognosis and associated anomalies of two infrequent embryopathies. And to describe a infrequent case of both abnormalities presenting simultaneously.

UCH are often misdiagnosed with other abdominal wall deffects, such as omphalocele, umbilical hernias, gastroschisis and umbilical cord cysts. The normal cord insertion, adequate muscle development of the abdominal wall and a wall defect less than 5cm is what differentiates it from an omphalocele. UCH has a low morbidity overall, as it is not associated with other anomalies. The most frequently observed urachal malformations are the persistence of a urachus and urachal cyst. The prenatal diagnosis of patent urachus is made by ultrasound or magnetic resonance, being easily mistaken with abdominal wall defects, confirming the diagnosis with an ultrasound at birth. The persistence of urachus may resolve spontaneously, if not, surgical resolution is recommended. Similar to a UCH, a patent urachus shows little association with other malformations.

It is important to know the clinical presentation and the diagnostic perinatal methods employed for appropriate management and favorable results for both pathologies. This relies on knowing when to suspect possible associated anomalies and when complementary studies might be needed. It is also important to be aware that there is the possibility of a UCH and a patent urachus existing simultaneously.

Published: June 2020

Aim: It was a question of determining the epidemiological, diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of the digestive surgical emergencies of the child in our environment. Patients and Methods: This is a prospective and descriptive study carried out for 12 months in the pediatric surgery department. Results: During the study period, on 668 patients admitted we retained 87 cases of digestive surgical emergencies; representing a hospital frequency of 13%. The mean age was 7.6 ± 3.5 years (range 30 days and 16 years). We noted a male predominance with 61 boys (70.1%) for 26 girls (29.9%). The taxi was the most used form of transportation in 77 cases (88.5%). The average consultation time was 5.4 days ± 5.3 days (1 hour and 21-day extremes). Abdominal pain was the main reason for consultation with 66.7% of cases. Generalized acute peritonitis was the predominant diagnosis with 32 cases (39.1%), followed by strangulated parietal hernias with 17 cases (19.5%) and acute intestinal intussusception with 11 cases (12.6%). The postoperative course was complicated in 27 cases (33.7%). parietal suppurations were the most common complication with 77.8% of cases. Six patients (6.9%) died. Conclusion: Digestive surgical emergencies represent a frequent nosological entity in our practice. Abdominal pain is the first reason for consultation. Appendicular peritonitis are the first cause of digestive surgical emergency in children in our practice. They remain a worrying problem for pediatric surgeons.

Published: June 2020

Introduction: Cholelithiasis has been reported in 12%-24% of Cystic Fibrosis (CF) patients, and is usually made up of cholesterol gallstones. These abnormalities are frequently asymptomatic and can include intra and extrahepatic ducts, gallbladder thickening and contraction, micro gallbladders, and cholelithiasis. Abdominal sonography is routinely used in order to detect these abnormalities. Objectives: To obtain the prevalence of gall stones (Cholelithasis) in CF patients and its relation to other clinical, laboratory, radiological, and genetic data. Methodology: A retrospective chart review as part of the CF registry data from the period 1st January 1984 – 1st June 2018. All confirmed CF the patients of all age groups that have US studies done were included in the study. Patients with positive gallstones or sludge were evaluated and discussed. Results: A total of 391 confirmed CF patients were involved. Out of them, 252 patients had an abdominal ultrasound, 7 patients (3%) had gallstones on the abdominal US, 8 patients (3%) were revealed to have sludge and 237 patients (94%) had normal gallbladders. Pancreatitis was found in 4 patients (2%). 191 patients (76%) had pancreatic insufficiency.77 patients had follow up abdominal ultrasounds and 5 patients (7%) were found to have persistent gallstones, 4 patients (5%) had persistent sludge and 68 patients (88%) remained negative for gallstones. 2 patients required cholecystectomy. Conclusion: Cholelithiasis is a common complication of CF disease; its incidence is more than the general population. Thus, we recommend that every CF patient get an ultrasonography study as part of liver disease screening to rule out any Gallbladder pathology.

Demam Berdarah Dengue (DBD) adalah penyakit menular yang terjadi akibat infeksi virus dengue, yang dibawa oleh vektor Aedes sp. Kota Kendari merupakan salah satu daerah endemis DBD di Provinsi Sulawesi tenggara. Beberapa program pengendalian Aedes sp. sejauh ini kurang berhasil, karena lebih menekankan pada pengasapan untuk nyamuk dewasa. Terdapat metode pengendalian Aedes sp. tanpa insekstisida yang sejauh ini berhasil menurunkan densitas vektor dibeberapa negara yaitu penggunaan perangkap telur (ovitrap). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui perbedaan jumlah telur yang terperangkap dalam perangkap telur standar dan perangkap telur bambu. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian observasional dengan metode cross-sectional.  Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa nilai p-value 0,6168 yang berarti bahwa tidak ada perbedaan antara telur nyamuk yang terperangkap pada perangkap telur standar dan perangkap telur bambu.

Lecturers as one of the human resources who have an important role in higher education activities need to be maintained the quality of their performance. One of the activities carried out is evaluating and ranking lecturers to improve the quality of performance. There needs to be a Decision Support System that can help in assessing and evaluating lecturer performance. One method in decision support is the Weight Product Method. The purpose of this research is to create a decision support system to determine the best lecturers and rank of each lecturer. The subjects of this study were lecturers at Putra Indonesia University YPTK Padang using a data sample of 5 lecturers. Data collection techniques used in this study were observation and interviews. Comparison of the results of calculations carried out manually with the results of calculations using the Weight Product method of 5 sample data used found the best lecturer with a vector V value of 0.0819. This decision support system was created using the PHP programming language and MySQL database. So that this research is more efficient because the time required in the calculation is shorter and produces the best lecturer choice that matches the criteria.
Evaluation of the Technological Competences Through Dissemination of Knowledge in Technological Incubators with Faph
Authors: Nara Medianeira Stefano
Published: June 2020

Unlike the industrial economy that valued vertical integration, the knowledge economy stimulates and values the formation of interorganizational alliances and business arrangements built in networks. Competitiveness shifts from a one-way, individual and endogenous process within firms to an open, multidirectional, collaborative and networked process. In this context, the objective of this study is to evaluate the technological competences (using the SECI model of knowledge conversion) present in technological incubators, through fuzzy multi-criteria methods. A hybrid mathematical methodology will be used with the integration of the Fuzzy Delphi (FDelphi) and Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) methods. The FDelphi will serve to raise and validate the critical factors (criteria/subcriteria) present to evaluate technological competencies in technological incubators. The FAHP method will be applied to calculate the relative weights of the selected criteria/subcriteria that affect the problem in question. Regarding the results, the following criteria were obtained: C4 (Socialization-38%), that is, the way in which the employees of an incubator share the knowledge, the second one that stood out the most was C1 (External acquisition of knowledge-28%) sources from which employees acquire tacit and/or explicit knowledge of the incubator's external environment. This proposal is expected to improve the competitiveness of technology incubators by assessing technological skills and disseminating knowledge.
