Authors: Da Silva Vicente Gil , Schwarz Laura Maria Loss
Published: August 2022

O artigo apresenta a até agora inédita biografia de Wladimir Lodygensky (1917-2007), um suíço de origem russa que migrou para o Brasil logo após a Segunda Guerra Mundial e organizou grupos anticomunistas na América Latina. Na primeira parte do texto será descrita a sua atuação em atividades anticomunistas na Europa, no período entreguerras, destacando-se a participação de seu pai, Georges Lodygensky, na direção da Entente Internationale Anticommuniste (EIA), uma organização que recebeu apoio de importantes brasileiros desde sua criação na década de 1920. Na sequência, serão apresentadas algumas atividades de membros da família Lodygensky no Brasil e as organizações anticomunistas por eles criadas nas décadas de 1940 e 1950: a Associação Democrática Cristã (ADC) e a Sociedade de Estudos Interamericanos (SEI). Ao final, será destacado o papel fundamental exercido pela SEI junto ao Instituto de Pesquisas e Estudos Sociais (IPES) na articulação golpista que levou à derrubada do governo de João Goulart, em 1964.

Published: August 2022

The aim: To evaluate patient satisfaction with dental care services at Iraqi private dental units Materials and methods: Online questionnaires were sent to 1600 Iraqi people. The questionnaires were composed of four sections: the first section was involved with gathering the demographic information of the participants, and the remaining three sections consisted of twenty-one questions to evaluate the responders’ satisfaction with regard to the dentist, treatment, and the dental clinic. Results: The final total of responses was 427 after using the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The distribution of the participants according to the obtained demographic data was as follows: (male 45.4% and female 54.6%), (above 40y 41.7% and less or equal to 40y 58.3%), (employed 52.9% and not employed 47.1%), (postgraduate 29.3%, college graduate 55.7%, and undergraduate 15%), and (enough and exceeding income 4.9%, enough income 51.8%, and less than enough income 43.3%). Only the educational level and the income level appeared to have an effect on the degree of patient satisfaction. Most of the participants complained about the high treatment fees and the long wait in the clinic before receiving treatment. Conclusions: The current study is the first conducted in Iraq to assess dental patient satisfaction. The satisfaction levels differed among the participants, which indicates the need to benefit from the evaluation of patients to improve the quality of treatment service in dental clinics. Future research should be conducted to precisely identify the factors that lead to increased satisfaction of dental patients with their treatment experiences.

The aim: Determination of anatomical and topographical relationships of the eyeball anterior segment structures to assess possible glaucoma development risk factors in SED patients with myopic refraction.
Materials and methods: Patients, aged from 10 to 34, have been examined since 2009. All the patients have undergone required medic and genetic examination as well as generally accepted ophthalmological one. Ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) has been performed using the VuMax II apparatus (Sonomed, USA) with a sensor frequency of 50 MHz.
Results: Biomicroscopy found no symptoms such as pigment dispersion on the iris stroma, in the chamber anterior angle, iris transillumination and “Krukenberg’s Spindle”, which are characteristic for the ultrasound picture in pigment dispersion syndrome.
Conclusions: 1. Clinical and functional study with the eyeballs mandatory ultrasound biomicroscopy have revealed functional space limitations for the structures of the iridociliary zone in patients with myopic type of eye structure in SED. 2. Detected congenital changes in the anterior segment structures (iridociliary cystic formations and residual mesodermal tissue) can lead to the emergence of intraocular blocks. 3. The research has identified conducive anatomical and topographic changes, which are likely to induce pigment dispersion syndrome or lead to the development of pigmentary glaucoma. 4. In our opinion, the UBM role in the early diagnosing and monitoring patients with SED syndrome is quite significant in terms of assessing the stability or dynamics of the changes received and possible complications. Ultrasound biomicroscopic scanning should be added to the list of necessary early diagnostic examinations to determine the markers and features of structures in SED.

Authors: Hussein Lazim Husam , Hussain Ali Shatha , Abdul-Amir Ahmed Sahib , Salim Asmaa Baqir
Published: August 2022

The aim: To find out the frequency of WU and KI polyomaviruses, and Human Boca and Adenoviruses infections among children with different types of acute upper respiratory tract infections and to compare the frequency of these viruses among immune-competent and immune compromised patients.
Materials and methods: A case-control study conducted in children aged 3-18 years with acute upper respiratory tract infections. The samples were taken from: Group 1: 100 immuno competent children with acute upper respiratory tract infections. Group 2: 100 immuno compromised children (Leukemic, cancer, Nephrotic syndrome, chronic renal failure and children with renal transplant) with acute upper respiratory tract infections. Group 3: 100 apparently healthy children without respiratory infections as control group. Nasal swap samples were collected from children and then viral DNA extracted from these samples. Then detection of WU, KI polyomaviruses HBoV and HAdv was done by using real time PCR.
Results: All of 300 samples were negative for WU and KI polyomaviruses. However, human Bocavirus was detected in the three groups (immunocompromised, immunocompetent and control group) and the positivity rates were 61.61%, 37.37% and 18.18%, respectively. While human adenovirus was found only in 2% of immunocompromised patients and 1.1% of immunocompetent patients also there were cases positive for both HBoV and HAdv in 5.5% of immunocompromised patients, and 8.8% of immunocompetent patients.
Conclusions: High frequency of HBoV especially in immunocompromised patients while low number of positive cases for HAdv by using nasal swab samples, WU and KI polyomaviruses could not be detected in samples.

Published: August 2022

The aim: To investigate and compare the effects of free radical lipid peroxidation, antioxidant supply and the state of hydro- and hemodynamics of the eye on the course and progression of the glaucoma process in patients with primary and secondary glaucoma.
Materials and methods: We observed 123 patients with primary and secondary glaucoma and 58 apparently healthy individuals, constituting the control group. The first group included 62 patients diagnosed with primary compensated glaucoma. The remaining 61 patients, who constituted the second group of subjects, were included in the study with a diagnosis of secondary compensated glaucoma.
Results: Clinical examination of patients with primary compensated glaucoma in winter demonstrates a statistically significant decrease in intraocular fluid production, decreased outflow and reduced actual intraocular pressure, whereas in summer and autumn these figures were less pronounced. Observations of patients with secondary compensated glaucoma also showed a statically significant decrease in the production of chamber fluid and a decrease in the coefficient of outflow in winter. Similar tendencies were confirmed by hemodynamic changes. During this period, the relative pulse volume of the blood entering the eye is significantly reduced, in the summer and autumn period, the deficit of blood supply to the eye is less pronounced.
Conclusions: The results of the research indicate the proliferative form of peroxide mechanisms in the pathogenesis of glaucoma of both types, which is the basis for using inhibitors of free radical lipid oxidation – antioxidant preparations – in the comprehensive therapy of these diseases. The identified features of clinical and biochemical disorders, based on the season of examination, are the basis for the development of differentiated regimens for the use of antioxidants in the treatment of glaucoma.
LEGAL AND SOCIAL CHALLENGES OF COVID-19 VACCINATION BEFORE AND AFTER THE 2022 RUSSIAN INVASION OF UKRAINE
Authors: Gutorova Nataliya , Lapkin Andrii , Yevtieieva Daryna
Published: August 2022

The aim: The study aims to develop ways of solving the social and legal problems of vaccination against COVID-19, showing them the example of Ukraine before and after the beginning of the active phase of Russian aggression.
Materials and methods: The study is based on international documents and legal acts adopted to combat the COVID-19 epidemic, the survey results of 165 ordinary Ukrainians on vaccination, interviewing health care organizers; statistical information, and content analysis of the media on vaccination, as well as ways of avoiding it. Dialectical, analytical-synthetic, system-structural methods, as well as methods of content analysis, questionnaires, interviews, and included observation, were used.
Results: Legal restrictions on the realization of persons’ rights who have not been vaccinated against COVID-19 are an acceptable remedy, as they aim to protect human rights to life and health. Restrictions on the realization of labor and other rights of unvaccinated persons introduced in Ukraine have caused the following related social-legal problems: a) negative attitude of some persons to human rights’ restrictions due to mandatory vaccination for workers, related fears of the population; c) stratification of the population according to the availability of vaccine of a particular manufacturer; d) background phenomenon in the form of imitation of vaccination with subsequent forgery of certificates. These restrictions have been lifted during the martial law, and anti-epidemic measures are recommendatory. Despite the availability of vaccinations throughout the non-occupied territory, the pace of vaccination has been significantly reduced.
Conclusions: Ways of overcoming the adverse socio-legal problems of vaccination and related background phenomena are to conduct quality information campaigns to inform the public about the benefits and safety of vaccination, counter misinformation, increase the availability of vaccines with a choice of vaccines from different manufacturers, and increase the effectiveness of criminal legal counteraction to forgery of documents confirming vaccination. After the imposition of martial law in Ukraine, there has been a change in the focus of public attention to solving vital problems, which, along with the transfer of anti-coronavirus restrictions to the status of recommendatory, creates danger of significant reduction in vaccination.

The aim: The study was designed to establish the prevalence of acute heart failure in patients with acute myocardial infarction, to determine the sex-age characteristics of acute myocardial infarction course in case of complications by acute heart failure of high classes (Killip III and Killip IV).
Materials and methods: We analyzed medical records of inpatients of the myocardial infarction department of the municipal non-profit enterprise Vinnytsia Regional Center for Cardiovascular Pathology in 2019. The survey covered 828 medical records of patients with acute myocardial infarction, average age (64.6 ± 0.38), including 569 (64.7%) males and 311 (35.3%) females.
Results: 129 (15.6%) patients with acute myocardial infarction were diagnosed high-class acute heart failure. Patients with high-class acute heart failure were statistically significantly elderly individuals of the average age (69.0 ± 1.3), (p <0.001), including 53.7% of males, and 46.3% (p <0.001) female patients. Patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated by acute heart failure were hospitalized within 2 hours of symptoms` onset with statistically significantly higher probability (p = 0.004). Patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated by acute high-class heart failure were statistically significantly more likely diagnosed with concomitant hypertension, diabetes mellitus, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic kidney disease than individuals with uncomplicated acute myocardial infarction. Acute myocardial infarction patients` mortality was 3.4%, while the one in patients with acute heart failure was 38% (p <0.001).
Conclusions: Patients with complicated myocardial infarction are characterized by statistically significantly higher comorbidity and increased lethality.

Published: August 2022

The aim: To analyze CR among antibacterials of different classes and to overcome some widespread misconceptions regarding CR between different classes of antibiotics.
Materials and methods: The narrative review represents an assessment of the most pertinent literary sources published in English language, which dealt with the issues of cross-reactivity between individual antibiotics and different classes of these ones.
Conclusions: With a high probability of type I AR in a patient in the past, it is better to plan the treatment of patients together with an allergist / immunologist. If this probability is estimated to be low, the choice of a particular antibiotic may be based to some extent on CR data.
POTENTIAL THERAPEUTIC OPTIONS TARGETING THE GUT DYSBIOSIS IN CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE
Authors: Dobrek Łukasz
Published: August 2022

The gut microbiota plays an important physiological role in controlling not only the function of the gastrointestinal tract, but also in maintaining systemic homeostasis. Quantitative and /or qualitative disturbances of the gut microbiota (dysbiosis) are an important element in the complex pathogenesis of many diseases, including chronic kidney disease (CKD). In the disease, the mutual interactions between disturbed gut microbiota and the progression of CKD (pathophysiological “kidney-gut axis”) have been demonstrated. The kidney failure causes water and nitrogen waste retention which leads to disturbances of motility, secretion and absorption in the gastrointestinal tract. These abnormalities contribute to the development of gut dysbiosis, accompanied by overproduction of toxic bacterial metabolites, with their translocation to the peripheral blood and development of endotoxemia. As a consequence, chronic kidney “low-grade” inflammation and oxidative stress develop, with further deterioration of kidney function in the mechanism of the “vicious cycle” of the kidney-gut axis. Considering the key role of gut dysbiosis and the kidney-gut axis, the attempts to restore the gut eubiosis seem to have an important role in the treatment of CKD and may be even regarded as a form of causal therapeutic intervention. The paper briefly discusses the basics of the pathophysiological kidney-gut axis in CKD and potential methods of modulating the abnormal gut microbiota in this disease, including the use of probiotic or prebiotic preparations, agents that absorb bacterial-derived toxins in the intestinal lumen, fecal microbiota transplantation and drugs used so far for other indications (acarbose, meclofenamate, lubiprostone).

Published: August 2022

The aim: This research aims to analyze the challenges we came across due to the rapid spread among the population (including young people) of tobacco heating devices.
Materials and methods: Analysis of 20 literature sources containing information about tobacco heating systems was performed. The search for literary sources was carried out in two main scientific databases: Scopus and PubMed. The review included original articles, research, and official recommendations from medical associations.
Conclusions: Tobacco heaters reduce harmful substances in the inhaled air compared to conventional tobacco cigarettes, but these new devices provide effective nicotine absorption, which prolongs a person’s nicotine dependence and prevents smoking cessation. The main problem we face due to the rapid spreading of these devices - potentially tobacco heating systems can pose health risks and further research on such risks, especially long - term, are needed. Tobacco heating devices, regardless of their manufacturer and design, should be subject to restrictions similar to traditional cigarettes.

MANAGEMENT OF RECURRENT CSF LEAK AFTER OCCIPITAL TUMOR SURGERY: A CASE REPORT
Authors: Kustono Heru- , Parenrengi Muhammad Arifin
Published: August 2022

We present the case of a 10-year-old male with recurrent CSF leakage after surgery for an occipital tumor. Initial management of the CSF leak, including debridement, re-exploration, and lumbar drain insertion, failed to address the problem. The last resort was the insertion of the EVD, which managed to stop the leak.
Cerebrospinal fluid leakage remains one of the most common complications in neurosurgery. CSF leakage can prolong hospitalization, require further surgery, and cause tension pneumocephalus, CSF infection, and wound dehiscence. Management of postoperative cerebrospinal fluid leakage includes suturing the surgical wound and applying pressure dressings or through surgical means such as cerebrospinal fluid diversion and re-exploration.

Reflections on the Challenges and the Prospects of a Post-pandemic Doctoral Supervision in Moulay Ismail University
Authors: MOUASSINE FATIMA EZZAHRA , M'rabti Mounya , EL MADANI El Mehdi
Published: August 2022

There has been an extensive growth of ICT-based models adopted in doctoral supervision as a major avenue in maintaining relationships with doctoral candidates engaged in research at a geographical distance from university and those undertaking research-related activities off-campus. However, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in recommendations of safety procedures and extended restrictions issued by the World Health Organization, has considerably affected doctoral education in ways that have revitalized distance, online supervision and so moved this latter from being an option on the side to a requisite. The main endeavor of this study is to examine the challenges doctoral supervisors have encountered whilst supervising candidates’ projects in the present circumstances and also explore the prospects of post-pandemic distance-delivered doctorate programs in the Moroccan university. The study employs a qualitative analysis guided by semi-structured interviews of 17 supervisors to obtain a clearer perception of doctoral supervision practices in light of the pandemic as well as the efficacy of alternative online distance modes. The findings yielded compelling issues grounded on institutional support, financial restrictions, adaptability of existing platforms, as well as technical unpreparedness to move online, all of which demand a critical reflection and strategic attention to build research capacity. Eventually, this study brings in various pedagogical implications sought to enlighten the uptake of online supervision and its integration and efficacy as a current alternative.
Group-Directed Motivational Current Within an EFL Higher Education Context in Saudi Arabia: A Case Study
Authors: Shoaib Amel
Published: August 2022

The study investigates the use of a Directed Motivational Current (DMC) framework in a Saudi Arabian English as a foreign language (EFL) context. It explores the development and induction of a DMC in a higher education blended learning environment. It is based on a constructivist, descriptive, longitudinal case study. Data were gathered from female students enrolled in an English language master’s program and encompassed three data sources: weekly student diaries, a focus group, and an online follow-up survey. The results reveal that the motivational behavior experienced by the students was linked to long-term identity goals, a prominent facilitative structure, and the generation of positive emotionality. The study emphasizes the importance of structuring engaging and autonomous learning environments that promote strong social well-being, clear group vision, and L2 competence. It also found that multiple initial triggering stimuli can provide the impetus to help ignite a group-DMC. The evidence also suggests a need for teacher-initiated re-triggers such as the use of games throughout the project as they create motivationally enhanced eudaimonic sensations that help sustain a DMC and enable the success of a project. The research highlights the educational value of using a DMC in EFL learning environments.
Politeness in a Moroccan EFL Classroom: How Students of High School Using Apologizing Strategies in English?
Authors: Hmouri Zaid
Published: August 2022

This qualitative/quantitative study investigates Moroccan high school EFL learners’ apologizing strategies based upon a theoretical framework of politeness strategies and the Cross-Cultural Speech Act Realization Patterns (CCSARP) model. It investigates whether they approach native speakers’ apology norms or their own cultural way of apologizing. To achieve this goal, four first-year baccalaureate classes (Science Experimental Physics major) were observed and then a sample of 64 subjects was randomly selected to fill in a written discourse completion test which had 6 apology situations. All the responses are classified according to both politeness strategies and CCSARP model used by Blum-kulka et al. (1989). The observed classes during the training showed that Moroccan first-year baccalaureate students used an off-record super strategy while apologizing (the use of hints) to the teacher, whereas the teacher used positive politeness while addressing his pupils. The results of the discourse completion test (DCT) revealed that Illocutionary indicating devices (IFIDs) plus an explanation of account (IFIDs + Account) is the most frequently used apology strategy by the subjects. More than 60% employed this semantic formula in all six situations. The use of IFIDs and explanation of account were significantly linked to the effect of subjects’ L1 and due to the impact of their own collective-agency culture. Hence, choosing to use that strategy by the subjects was pragmatically unsuccessful and would be inappropriate by the apologizer since it does not meet the apology norms of native speakers of English, and it indicates and follows the Moroccan culture norms and rules. The paper concludes with some practical suggestions for improving the teaching of apologies.

A Teoria da Objetivação (TO) apresenta-se como uma possibilidade para compreender o processo de ensino e aprendizagem de Matemática que se sustenta nos princípios do materialismo histórico-dialético, que possui como uma de suas bases epistemológica a Teoria da Atividade de Leontiev (1988) e toma como elemento de análise a atividade da sala de aula que se materializa por meio das tarefas. Com a intencionalidade de analisar o papel que ocupam as tarefas nas pesquisas fundamentadas na TO em âmbito nacional desenvolveu-se esse estudo de cunho teórico-narrativo. Como escopo do estudo foram selecionadas 19 pesquisas, sendo 11 dissertações e 8 teses, em um novo filtro, separou-se 8 destas para uma análise detalhada das tarefas. Ao final do estudo foi possível perceber que muitos pesquisadores organizam e pensam nas tarefas pautando-se no grau de complexidade destas ou no nível de motivação que os estudantes terão para resolve-las. Percebeu-se também que há diferentes compreensões pelos pesquisadores de como é possível desenvolver as tarefas para proporcionar o labor conjunto e os processos de objetivação do conhecimento.
Desenho Universal para Aprendizagem em matemática: uma proposta para o ensino dos números decimais
Authors: Velasco Gilbson , Barbosa Regiane da Silva
Published: August 2022

Compreendendo a educação como um Direito Humano fundamental para a formação de cidadãos acredita-se que é imprescindível que todas as pessoas, independentemente de suas diferenças tenham acesso às escolas, espaços formais de educação, e aprendam os conteúdos previstos nas diretrizes vigentes, como prevê a educação inclusiva. A educação inclusiva tem o desafio de ensinar estudantes diferentes, com cultura, hábitos, costume e condições socioeconômicas, religião e ritmos e maneiras diferentes de aprender, decorrentes ou não de deficiência. Destacando a Matemática, como uma área de conhecimento prevista na educação básica e os desafios de trabalhar os conteúdos desta com a diversidade de estudantes encontradas nas escolas, o presente artigo resulta de um estudo exploratório descritivo de caráter qualitativo, que tem como objetivo geral descrever uma proposta de prática docente para ensino de números decimais na perspectiva do Desenho Universal para a Aprendizagem (DUA).  O DUA reconhece a pluralidade humana, e que cada um se apropria do conhecimento de maneiras diferentes. E, tem como preceito tornar o currículo básico da educação acessível e aplicável a todos, estruturado em princípios que serviram de base para se organizar atividades para ensinar números decimais utilizando materiais concretos, aula e práticas condizentes com o interesse e realidade dos estudantes, de modo a estimular e garantir aprendizagem, planejando e estruturando a ação docente para que esta seja acessível para todos, contemplando a diversidades de estudantes. A elaboração de proposta de atividades de Matemática na perspectiva do DUA demonstra que para atuar na diversidade o professor deve focar no estudante, organizando atividades com recursos que estimulem o aprendizado, que sejam contextualizadas e possibilitem ao estudante ver aplicabilidade do que aprende.
A noção de quantidade apresentada por crianças da pré-escola a partir de atividades baseadas na abordagem de Reggio Emilia
Authors: Picolo  Vial Indiana , Richit Adriana
Published: August 2022

O artigo dedica-se a analisar as formas de expressar a noção de quantidade apresentadas por crianças em idade pré-escolar a partir de atividades baseadas na Abordagem de Reggio Emilia. Orientadas pela questão “Quais as formas de expressar quantidades são apresentadas por crianças da pré-escola a partir de atividades baseadas na Abordagem de Reggio Emilia?”, realizamos uma investigação com crianças de quatro a seis anos no contexto de três atividades baseadas na ludicidade e no diálogo. A pesquisa qualitativa, de natureza exploratória e explicativa, tomou como abordagem a Investigação Baseada em Design (IBD) em que foram desenvolvidas atividades mobilizadoras de estratégias e recursos para expressar quantidades. O material empírico constitui-se das notas de campo e das transcrições das gravações em áudio das conversas e interações com as crianças (roda e individualizadas) e das fichas de trabalho das crianças. A análise apontou distintas formas de expressar a noção de quantidade, as quais estão circunscritas nos temas: estimativa, contagem e escrita numérica. A estimativa foi manifestada em face aos esforços das crianças para expressar quantidades indicadas nas tarefas utilizando-se de desenhos e justificativas verbalizadas. A contagem foi usada em diferentes situações como forma de determinar as quantidades solicitadas nas atividades. A escrita numérica caracterizou o processo de expressar quantidades a partir da escrita de números. Como resultado, evidenciamos a relevância do professor da Educação Infantil oportunizar para a criança situações em que possa mobilizar e desenvolver noções matemáticas, tais como quantidade e número, desenvolvendo as suas cem linguagens, conforme propõe a educação em Reggio Emilia. As atividades propostas no âmbito da IBD potencializaram nas crianças as formas de expressar quantidade, desenvolvendo as múltiplas linguagens das crianças, ao mesmo tempo em que propiciaram a escuta, socialização, autonomia e o protagonismo infantil.

Implicit Theories of Intelligence and Achievement Goal Orientations: How are they Associated with College Student Academic Achievement?
Authors: Scott C. Marley  , M. Jeanne Wilcox
Published: August 2022

The present study considers social-cognitive theory constructs associated with implicit theories of intelligence and achievement goal theory concerning the academic achievement of first-time college students. We examined growth and entity mindsets along with mastery learning, performance-approach and performance-avoidance achievement goals in relation to academic achievement. Furthermore, social-cognitive theory predications were examined to determine whether achievement goals mediated relationships between growth and entity mindsets and academic achievement. We randomly sampled 2,000 college students from a large research-intensive public university in the United States; of which 839 students provided complete data. Using an online survey, we collected self-reported baseline measures of students' implicit theories of intelligence and achievement goal orientations. We matched data from these measures with two years of college Grade Point Average (GPA). Multiple regression analyses of the baseline data partially supported the hypothesized relationships between growth and entity mindsets with learning and performance goal orientations. A growth mindset was a positive predictor of the mastery of learning goal orientation. Unexpectedly, mastery learning positively predicted both performance goal orientations, but relative to entity mindset was a weaker predictor of performance-avoidance goal orientation. Longitudinal analysis with college GPA as the dependent variable found growth mindset negatively predicted end of year two GPA. This relationship was moderated by mastery goal orientation with greater levels of mastery goal orientation associated with a larger negative relationship between growth mindset and end of year two GPA. Furthermore, the growth mindset by mastery goal orientation by time interaction was statistically significant with students either high in both or low in both experiencing lower GPA over time. Exploration of the mediation hypotheses was partially supported by path analysis. Implications for theory, practice and further research are discussed.
