Reinforcement design using geosynthetics for foundations with probability of dolinamento: Analytical calculation and numerical stress-strain model
Authors: Castro Paulo Victor Silva Avelino de , Silva Isabelle Tanne Couto e , Martins Paula Mello
Published: January 2024

Karst zones are defined by their high solubility, porosity and consequence of subsidence occurrences. Considering that about 20% of of ice-free land is made up of karst regions, the present work aimed to reinforce by geosynthetics a hypothetical foundation subject to windings through the analytical methodology of Briançon and Villard (2007) and by modeling numerical stress-strain in RS2 software (Rocscience). Initially, a hypothetical foundation to be strengthened was defined, in which there is the presence of circular dolines of a maximum of 3 meters in diameter. For the determination of the mechanical properties of the reinforcement, the methodology proposed by Briançon and Villard (2007) was applied, having as a premise a surface deformation of, at most, 5%, whose results generated dimensioning abacuses to define the length parameters anchoring and traction effort of the geogrid. Numerical analyzes of the stress-strain type were performed to verify the level of strain related to the resistance of the foundation materials, considering the values obtained by the analytical method. The reinforcement by a geogrid set, for reinforcement and a woven geotextile, for physical separation, in elastoplastic regime, obtained resistance reduction factors (SRF) corresponding to the maximum surface deformations of 5%. The SRF obtained was consistent with good practices. It was observed that the deformations caused in the geosynthetics did not lead to their rupture.

Chronic use of proton pump inhibitors and vitamin B12 deficiency: Current evidence and recommendations
Authors: Calou Iana Bantim Felício
Published: January 2024

Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are among the most widely used drugs in the world. Representing the first choice of treatment for various disorders that affect the digestive system, these drugs are also among the most sought after for self-medication, since they are over-the-counter. The massive and prolonged use of PPIs ended up bringing to light adverse reactions that were eventually serious and often avoidable if they were used rationally. One of the main concerns about the chronic use of these drugs concerns their potential to cause vitamin B12 deficiency in chronic users, with damage ranging from megaloblastic anemia to severe neuropsychiatric disorders. Numerous studies have already addressed the topic without reaching a consensus. Currently, several indications postively relate the use of PPIs with vitamin B12 deficiency, and many others show the absence of a significant relationship. In general, the evidence is considered weak, and the recommendation among prescribers is that no action regarding serum monitoring or routine VB12 supplementation is necessary in patients on chronic use of proton pump inhibitors.

Authors: Melo Wanderley José de , Wig Gabriel Maurício Melo , Bertipaglia Liandra Maria Abaker , Pereira Luiz Arthur Malta , Santos Eleandro Ricardo dos
Published: January 2024

Carbonic anhydrase (EC 4.2.1.1) is an extremely important metalloenzyme in the metabolism of plants, animals, and microorganisms, taking part in photosynthesis, the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins and lipids, and has zinc in the structure of its active site. Zinc is a micronutrient, but also a heavy metal, which can cause benefits or toxicity to plants, depending on the amount it is absorbed. The aim of this research was to evaluate the activity of carbonic anhydrase in maize plants (Zea mays L.) grown in a nutrient solution with different concentrations of zinc. The plants were grown in a greenhouse in washed sand contained in lysimeters with a capacity for 1,300 g of sand, which received a nutrient solution without Zn and individualized additions of increasing doses of Zn as ZnSO4.7H2O. The experiment was set up in a completely randomized experimental design with 6 treatments (0, 5, 10, 20, 40 and 80 mg Zn kg-1 of substrate), with 6 replicates. Carbonic anhydrase activity increased significantly with the dose of zinc, with the highest activity at a concentration of 10 mg kg-1 of substrate. The concentration of zinc in the plant increased significantly in the root and aerial part, reaching the maximum total value (root + shoot) at the highest dose of zinc applied to the substrate. The lowest dry mass production by the corn plant occurred at the highest dose of zinc (80 mg Zn kg-1 of substrate) as a response to possible phytotoxicity and there was no significant difference between the other treatments, indicating that the Zn present in the seed was sufficient for the initial phase of corn development. Carbonic anhydrase activity did not correlate significantly with Zn accumulated in the plant and with dry mass production.

Published: January 2024

The objective of this study was to analyze the association between occupational stress and occupational accidents among physicians and nurses at a public hospital in the city of Três Rios, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. To this end, an exploratory research with a qualitative approach was carried out with 20 professionals, thus involving physicians, nurses and nursing technicians. Data collection involved the application of in-depth interviews, and the data were analyzed using the discourse analysis technique. As a result, it was found that occupational stress is associated with the occurrence of occupational accidents among employees. Stress particularly affects women over 30 years of age in a common-law relationship, due to the long workload, work pressure, inadequate infrastructure and interpersonal problems in hospitals. The study highlighted the complexity of occupational stress, influenced by unfavorable working conditions, task overload, and interpersonal tensions, affecting not only mental health, but also worker safety and the quality of patient care. Workplace accidents, such as stress-related cuts and falls, underline the need to mitigate stress to protect staff and patients, affecting both the physical and psychological health of workers.

Animals such as rodents are used as a tool for experimental studies in various areas of research. Therefore, in order to enable future in vivo tests of the impact of gluten on rodent health, the following paper aims to produce and technologically characterize rodent feed with the addition of gluten. A single-screw extruder was used to produce the samples. Four formulations were tested, increasing the amount of wheat added to each mix. The physicochemical and technological properties of the feed were determined, including a centesimal analysis, expansion index, water absorption index (WAI) and water solubility index (WSI). The results showed that the addition of wheat increased the crude protein content, a parameter that had a major influence on the expansion index and WSI. In the case of the expansion index, the increased protein content was possibly the cause of the increase in this parameter; for the WSI, the presence of proteins had the same effect, due to the denaturation of these biopolymers. In general, the results are positive in terms of nutritional composition, but more studies are needed to understand the consequences of adding gluten to feed.

Published: January 2024

INTRODUCTION: Sarcoidosis is an idiopathic multisystem granulomatous disease. Its ocular presentations include eyelid and conjunctival nodules and uveitis, accounting for 30 to 50% of its cases. In anterior uveitis, there is local inflammation of the iris and/or ciliary body. It may manifest with mutton fat keratic precipitates, nodulesin the trabecular meshwork, and Koeppe and Busacca's nodules. Regarding the intermediate form, there is primary inflammation of the ciliary body, choroid, and peripheral retina, causing vitreous blurring in snowballsand pearl necklaces, and retinal perivasculitis. In posterior, there is primary inflammation of the choroid with multiple peripheral chorioretinal damage, solitary choroidal nodule, and optic disc edema. The diagnosis is made by alterations in imaging tests and high levels of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) and/or serum lysozyme, considering the exclusion of other granulomatous pathologies. This report aims to describe the diagnostic process of sarcoidosis in the face of panuveitis.

Authors: Sena Bianca Uchoa , Barros Trícia de Souza
Published: January 2024

Hypersensitivity is a common trait in many children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), making them more sensitive to sensory stimuli from the environment, such as sounds, textures, tastes and odors, balance, and posture. These reactions can have a substantial impact on both the quality of life and social interactions of these children. Therefore, speech therapy, in collaboration with the multidisciplinary team, plays a fundamental role in the evaluation, diagnosis and intervention, aiming to help these children deal with their exacerbated sensitivities. The therapeutic approach seeks to create personalized strategies for each child, considering the wide variation in the intensity of hypersensitivities within ASD. For this reason, the main objective of this article is to address hypersensitivity in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). It is critical to recognize and understand the specific areas in which each child is most sensitive, as this sensitivity can vary widely from one child to another. Addressing hypersensitivity in a personalized way is essential to improve the quality of life of these children by reducing their discomfort, anxiety, and challenging behaviors. That said, the development of this study was based on a bibliographic research, which used as sources scientific articles available on renowned platforms, such as Google Scholar, as well as journals indexed in Scielo.

Published: January 2024

Distraction osteogenesis is a systemic procedure that can be performed using an external fixator to promote bone defense and repair in different conditions, such as severe trauma and correction of deformities. The bone healing process involves phases of inflammation, which are necessary for healing. Traumatic injuries trigger the production of cytokines that stimulate the release of prostaglandins, which helps in this healing process. This study aimed to analyze the evolution of patients who were admitted to osteogenic distraction without the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and to present studies that address the relationship between the use of these drugs and the delay in bone healing. NSAIDs act by inhibiting isoenzymescyclooxygenases (COX) 1 and 2 and their action on COX 2 leads to a decrease in prostaglandins, quenches the inflammatory process, which consequently interferes with the osteogenesis switch and fracture healing. A prospective randomized study reported that the use of NSAIDs in patients admitted to total arthroplasty after hip fractures evolved in more fractures and complications, demonstrating the possible transition of these medications in bone healing. In this study, osteogenic distraction without the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) showed good results in bone repair in patients with severe fractures. Patients demonstrated that this treatment provided an efficient process of bone healing and neoformation, which resulted in a shorter duration of the distraction process. It is concluded that the interference of these drugs in the inflammatory response can impair bone healing.

Innovative Business Models in the Circular Economy
Authors: Dulgheru Valeriu
Published: January 2024

In the current economic model people are used to owning, having, using and then throwing away a wide range of consumer things, which endangers the world economy and the ecology of the Planet. Until now, the economy has operated mainly on the „procurement-production-disposal” model, a linear model in which each product has a limited lifespan. It is becoming absolutely clear that a new approach to the problem is needed and this approach can be the ‚Circular Economy’. With the transition to a circular economy, the focus shifts to reusing, repairing, refurbishing and recycling existing materials and products. What was considered „waste” can turn into a resource. The paper presents the concept of the circular economy, the structure of the circular economy and the basic principles of the circular economy. The European Union has adopted the main objectives and actions to transform the economy into a circular economy. Innovative business models in the circular economy are also presented.

Authors: Ursatii Nicolai
Published: January 2024

The aim of this paper is to optimize the technological parameters of the ecological milk cooling plant with the application of natural cold, which ensures a significant increase in energy efficiency at collection points in the Republic of Moldova. The proposed plant captures the natural cold and stores it in the insulated cold accumulator without the use of freons, which is then used for cooling milk. In order to achieve the goal, the mathematical model of the intermediate refrigerant cooling process using renewable energy was developed in the paper. Based on the requirements imposed on the technological process as well as the developed mathematical model, it was determined that for cooling the intermediate refrigerant from the initial temperature of +140C to +40C, at the ambient temperature of +20C, 34.25 times more equivalent volume of air is required.

Authors: Dara Abhilash , Datla Praveen Kumar Varma , Priya C. V. Padma , Manda Anoosha , Kandikatla Pradeep , Polineti Priyanka
Published: January 2024

Introduction: Interproximal reduction (IPR) is a common orthodontic treatment procedure that is used which involves tooth reduction, anatomic recontouring, and protecting permanent teeth proximal enamel surfaces. Sheridan described the air-rotor stripping technique as an alternative to extraction in borderline cases. Though there are many studies, it was not clearly differentiated regarding the pulpal temperature changes during IPR.

Materials and Methods: In this in vitro study, 63 extracted human premolar teeth were randomly assigned to three groups (n=21). Group-1 (Strauss diamond stripping bur) at high speed above 20,000 rpm, Group-2 (Manual Handheld metal stripper). Group-3 (Strauss diamond stripping disc) at a low speed below 15,000 rpm. The average mean temperature is assessed for each tooth during various techniques using K-type thermocouple. During the procedure, the thermometer display was covered, and the temperature was revealed after all the stripping procedures had already been performed. Data were analyzed using IBM SPSS version 20 software. Descriptive statistics, one way analysis of variance with Tukey’s post hoc tests were done to analyze the study data.

Results: The mean rise in temperature was highest with disc & micromotor (4.3ºC) followed by airotor & bur (4.02ºC) and manual method (2.52ºC) (p ≤ 0.05).

Conclusion: There was an increase in the pulpal temperature using diamond stripping disc with micromotor followed by the airotor and bur, manual hand held stripping.
On the Narrative and Architectonics Applied to Daniil Kharms’ Prose
Authors:   Gnesin Russian Academy of Music, Gerver Larisa L.
Published: January 2024

The present article was written as a response to the formulation of the theme of the conference Musical Composition: Narrative and Architectonics (Gnesin’ Russian Academy of Music, 2022), where in the commonality between music, literature and architecture was stated – i.e., between music and those forms of creativity to whom narrative and architectonics initially pertain. Music possesses the equable capability of perception of compositional principles relevant to both the temporal and the spatial arts, and this circumstance places music in the center of a triple juxtaposition with narrative (and literature presented by it) and architectonics (and, correspondingly, architecture). The author of the article suggests turning the scheme of the triple juxtaposition in such a way, that not music, but architecture would appear at the center. And the focus would be not literature in general, but specifically on Daniil Kharms’ flash fiction — the primary sphere of observation of the peculiarities of the narrative in his works. In the organization of Kharms’ literary works both musical and architectural analogies play a discernible role, the substantiation of which we find in a number of his diary notes, drawings and theoretical texts. The “musical” traits of Kharms’ poetry and prose have been studied to a sufficient degree, which cannot be said about the inherent architectonic qualities intrinsic to them — let us compare them with “the law of symmetry, the law of equilibrium” mentioned in Kharms’ notes (Treatise about the Infinite, 1932). The instrument of the revealing of symmetry in a literary text is the metrotectonic method of Konyus. The article examines three examples of Kharms’ symmetrically aligned prose — the short stories The Optical Illusion, Symphony No. 2 and The Trunk Box.

Authors: Issah Mohammed Seini , Alhassan Hamza , Ibrahim Fatimatu Hajia
Published: January 2024

The study sought to analyze the skills and techniques acquired by teacher trainees, in art related to producing IMs during teaching practice at Gambaga College of Education (GACE). The role of Instructional Materials is to glue information into learners' minds, as what is seen is understood more than what is heard. Active participation stimulates and motivates learning. The presence of well-prepared IMs in the learning environment creates room for learners to interact or explore with it and that increases the quality of knowledge acquired and broadens the horizon of mastery of knowledge. The study adopted action research and descriptive and experimental methodologies to study the skills and techniques as well as materials adopted for the production of IMs by teacher trainees at GACE. The study found that teacher trainees exhibited poor skills and techniques in the production of IMs. They also adopted materials that can easily be destroyed and in addition, limit pupils' interaction in the lesson. This, therefore, does not motivate pupils to learn.

Remaja mencoba menjadi orang yang dewasa, untuk menemukan identitasnya, dan menyelidiki sikap hidup untuk menjadi orang yang lebih dewasa. Usia remaja merupakan usia transisi yang penuh dengan tantangan, usia didorong untuk menentukan masa depan yang tidak realistis. Beberapa faktor yang dapat menentukan perkembangan agama remaja adalah bertumbuhnya pikiran dan mental, perasaan yang berkembang, pertimbangan sosial, perkembangan moral, sikap, dan minat, serta aktivitas beribadah. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisa pemahaman dan pengalaman remaja dalam menghadapi pengaruh bimbingan agama terhadap kesadaran beragama. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif studi pustaka, penelitian ini mengeksplorasi bagaimana nilai-nilai, keyakinan, dan pandangan agama dapat memengaruhi partisipasi remaja dalam aktifitas ibadah, serta melihat sejauh mana hal tersebut memainkan peran dalam perkembangan spiritual remaja. Analisis kualitatif akan membuka wawasan baru terkait fenomena yang terjadi antara bimbingan agama dengan praktik ibadah remaja, serta dapat mempekaya pemahaman tentang faktor-faktor yang dapat memengaruhi dalam konteks perkembangan individu pada masa remaja.

Authors: Litami Febi Priska , Lutfi Achmad
Published: January 2024

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the implementation of the Special Autonomy Fund in Aceh, an initiative that stems from decentralization policy reform in Indonesia that aims to promote regional development and resolve armed conflicts in Aceh. Through the literature study method, this study investigates the evolution of special autonomy policies, starting from the enactment of Law No. 22/1999 and Law No. 25/1999, to the ratification of Law No. 11 of 2006 concerning the Government of Aceh, which marked the transition from centralist government to decentralization, giving Aceh broad autonomy in various aspects of local life. Analysis of the data shows that the allocation of the Special Autonomy Fund, which began in 2008 and will continue until 2027, fluctuated, with an increase over the first 15 years followed by an anticipated gradual decline. The results of the study confirm that the Government of Aceh has succeeded in realizing most of the allocated funds, with emphasis on infrastructure, economy, poverty reduction, as well as education, social, and health, illustrating Aceh's effectiveness in using funds for development and community welfare. The study concludes that the Special Autonomy Fund has become an effective policy instrument in supporting Aceh's regional autonomy and sustainable development. These findings provide important implications for policymaking in other regions with similar uniqueness in Indonesia, offering insight into how asymmetric decentralization can be used as a tool for managing diversity within a unitary state.

Corruption is a criminal act of abuse of power against the public for the sake of enriching themselves. This act of lawlessness is a frequent occurrence in the country of Indonesia, whose existence continues to exist and increase every year. The Indonesian government has tried various ways to stop the occurrence of corruption. The government established the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) as a party that has the role of an anti-corruption commission. The existence of the KPK has not greatly reduced the number of corruption cases in Indonesia. In fact, even the existence of binding laws does not limit the movement of corruptors to satisfy their greedy desires. This certainly states that all the efforts of the government and the applicable laws are still unable to work effectively in preventing corruption. The eradication of corruption has become the main focus of the Indonesian government, looking for new efforts that can be made to be able to further narrow the space for perpetrators of corruption. Therefore, this article aims to analyze the background and factors of corruption, and understand the pattern of corruption. In this article, the efforts of the Indonesian government are explained as a sustainable effort, which can support their efforts in the process of eradicating corruption. This article is structured using a descriptive normative method, in order to make it clear to understand the contents of the article with a comprehensive and clear presentation of laws and legal theories.
