Enfermería, con Fe y Razón
Authors: Cervera Vallejos Mirtha Flor
Published: December 2024

Fe y razón conforman el engranaje propulsor para que, junto a la verdad, ciencia y coherencia, el profesional de enfermería vaya descubriendo horizontes desconocidos pero seguramente prósperos para la sociedad. Al respecto, Benedicto XVI basado en las sagradas escrituras, sostiene que buscar la verdad es un acto inherente a este profesional; y propio de su naturaleza al compartir el conocimiento con futuras generaciones a partir del método científico y la responsabilidad. Del mismo modo, la docencia caracterizaría una actividad holística fundamental para el profesional de enfermería, que de la mano con la investigación aseguran y garantizan un trato enfermero humanizado por excelencia para el sujeto de cuidado y su entorno en general, sin deslindarse del propio autocuidado. No cabe duda entonces que, para una labor profesional destacada, hace tanta falta ciencia como fe y espiritualidad; lo primero proporciona conocimiento basado en la evidencia, y lo demás, la capacidad de ejercer con plenitud y satisfacción.
ACTIVITIES OF THE INSTITUTE OF COMMISSIONERS OF THE RSFSR ON THE TERRITORY OF THE UKRAINIAN SSR IN THE FIRST HALF OF THE 1920S: REGULATORY AND LEGAL ASPECT
Authors: Fastovets Yulia
Published: December 2024

The purpose of the article is to determine the social and political conditions for the adoption of normative legal acts of the Ukrainian SSR in the context of the formation and activity of the Institute of Commissioners of the RSFSR (Russian Socialist Federal Soviet Republic) on the territory of the Ukrainian SSR in the first half of the 1920s. The research methodology is based on general scientific principles of objectivity, scientificity, and scientific validity, as well as historicism, with the use of special scientific methods (historical-typological and structural-systemic). The scientific novelty lies in the fact that the creation of various Institutes of Commissioners of the RSFSR (later the USSR) at the Soviet of People`s Commissars of the Ukrainian SSR (SPC Ukrainian SSR) is analyzed, and the characteristics of the activities of various commissioners in the SPC of the Ukrainian SSR are described. Conclusions. The formation and functioning of the Institutes of the Commissioners of the RSFSR (later USSR) at the Soviet of People`s Commissars of the Ukrainian SSR took place on the basis of the directives of the RSFSR (later USSR) with the subsequent approval of the candidates of the VUTsVK (All-Ukrainian Central Executive Committee) and the SPC Ukrainian SSR. In their activities, the commissioners were accountable to the relevant People's Commissariats of both republics, supervising and controlling the activities of the relevant SPC Ukrainian SSR, and overseeing the implementation of the directives of the SPC of the RSFSR (with the consent of the USSR).
VENEREAL DISEASES DURING THE NAZI OCCUPATION OF UKRAINE: CAUSES OF SPREAD, PREVENTION AND PROBLEM SOLVING METHODS
Authors: Ginda Volodymyr
Published: December 2024

The purpose of the article is to study the methods used by the Nazi occupation authorities to combat the spread of venereal diseases in the Ukrainian territories under their occupation, affecting both Wehrmacht soldiers and the local population. The research methodology is based on specific historical and general scientific methods, interdisciplinary methods and the existing terminological apparatus. The scientific novelty consists in the study on the basis of the available source base, primarily the reports of the chiefs of the German security service (hereinafter referred to as the SS), the policy and methods of the Nazi occupation government’s struggle against the spread of venereal diseases among soldiers and the population of Ukraine, the analysis of the causes of the spread of these diseases and the punishment of sick military and civilian residents. Conclusions. After analyzing the available material, the author states that during the Nazi occupation in the territory of occupied Ukraine, one of the health and sanitary problems for the Nazis was the spread of venereal diseases among Wehrmacht soldiers. The Germans tried to combat these ailments through various methods, from medicinal to administrative-criminal, but they failed to overcome the existing problem due to the lack of doctors and medicines, as well as a poorly coordinated policy that was sometimes excessively cruel.
DMYTRO DANYLYSHYN AND VASYL BILAS: TO THE QUESTION OF THE ORGANIZATION OF UKRAINIAN NATIONALISTS’ POLITICAL RELIGION FORMATION
Authors: Shlikhta Iryna
Published: December 2024

The purpose of the study is to investigate the life and activities of Dmytro Danylyshyn and Vasyl Bilas in a historical context. The article seeks to establish the influence of the so-called Horodok affair, in which these young people participated, on the further history of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN). Additionally, it aims to trace the formation of the Bilas-Danylyshyn worship.
Methodology: The work employs general scientific and special historical methods, including chronological, historical-comparative, historical-systemic, source criticism, as well as the methodology of intellectual history and nationalism studies.
Academic novelty. For the first time, the life and activities of Dmytro Danylyshyn and Vasyl Bilas are examined in the context of the formation of the OUN political religion. The worship of heroes became a cornerstone of the new religion. Danylyshyn and Bilas were significant figures for the OUN because their patriotism and self-sacrifice allowed the new religion to be formally established. This text also explores the influence of individual representatives of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church on the formation of the OUN political religion. Additionally, for the first time, the concept of «monomyth» by Joseph Campbell was applied to OUN mythmaking.
Conclusions. The Ukrainian-Polish conflict in the Second Polish Republic was a significant challenge for Dmytro Danylyshyn and Vasyl Bilas. Influenced by OUN propaganda, they believed that terrorist activity was a justifiable method for national liberation. Their involvement in the OUN action in Horodok led to their trial and subsequent execution on the gallows, turning them into «icons» of the nationalist movement. The Horodok affair created a new propaganda niche for the OUN, allowing its members to be portrayed as modern martyrs for Ukraine, largely due to the testimony of the Greek Catholic priest Kyndii. The hero worship of Danylyshyn and Bilas was fueled by public recognition and intentional activities of nationalist propaganda. These figures have been mythologized. Thanks to Bilas and Danylyshyn, the OUN version of the nationalist «monomyth» was established.

Property, Public or Common, in Post-Colonial Societies:Studying Zimbabwe’s Communal Lands
Authors: Chadambuka Zvikomborero
Published: December 2024

Cet article traite de la coexistence de plusieurs régimes juridiques concernant les terres communales au Zimbabwe. L'interaction entre les systèmes formels et les systèmes coutumiers de droits fonciers suscite des interrogations quant à la répartition des pouvoirs sur les terres communales entre ces systèmes et les institutions qui les gouvernent. Le statut des terres communales en tant que propriété publique sous la responsabilité du chef de l'État et propriété commune sous la supervision des chefs traditionnels, en vertu du droit coutumier, a engendré un dysfonctionnement politique, rendant les autorités traditionnelles complètement dépendantes du gouvernement central en place. Ce dysfonctionnement s'est encore intensifié après un programme de réinstallation foncière désorganisé, qui a accentué les incertitudes concernant la classification juridique des terres rurales ainsi que l'autorité des chefs sur ces terres. La démocratie locale s'est aussi retrouvée davantage soumise au contrôle politique central. Cet article examine également les défis liés à l'efficacité, l'équité et la durabilité que l'on associe souvent aux régimes de tenure foncière coutumière. Il met en avant que, dans le cadre des terres communales du Zimbabwe et des zones de réinstallation voisines, c’est le statut simultané de ces terres en tant que propriété publique et propriété commune – en particulier leur statut de propriété publique – qui crée des insécurités, des inefficacités et des inégalités en matière de droits fonciers. Les systèmes de droits fonciers coutumiers peuvent recourir à des méthodes d'allocation des terres qui augmentent l’intensité d’utilisation de manière souvent localement durable et équitable. Cependant, ces avantages potentiels risquent de ne pas être exploités en raison de l’insécurité plus générale liée à la subordination des autorités traditionnelles aux autorités du gouvernement central.
Pyrexia of Unknown Origin in a Patient with Ankylosing Spondylitis: A Rare Case of Concurrent Adult-Onset Still's Disease
Authors: Hait Dr Anamitra , Sengupta Dr.Sarbani , Kumar Chaudhary Dr Arbind
Published: December 2024

Background: Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting the axial skeleton, with
systemic symptoms such as fever being uncommon. Adult-onset Still’s disease (AOSD) is an autoinflammatory
condition characterized by high-grade fever, rash, and polyarthritis. The co-occurrence of AS and AOSD is
extremely rare and presents significant diagnostic challenges. This case report outlines the complexities
involved in identifying and managing such an overlap.
Case Presentation: A 37-year-old male with a history of AS presented with pyrexia of unknown origin (PUO),
bilateral asymmetric polyarthritis, and a transient skin rash. Laboratory findings showed elevated inflammatory
markers (CRP: 322 mg/L, ESR: 82 mm/hr), hyperferritinemia (>10,000 ng/mL), hyperleukocytosis
(16,000/mm³) with neutrophil predominance, and normocytic normochromic anemia (hemoglobin: 9 g/dL).
Extensive infectious and immunological investigations were negative, while PET CT revealed metabolically
active lymphadenopathy. Biopsies excluded malignancy and macrophage activation syndrome. A diagnosis of
AOSD was established based on Fautrel and Yamaguchi criteria. The patient’s treatment was shifted from
NSAIDs to corticosteroids (prednisone 1 mg/kg/day), leading to significant improvement, followed by
maintenance therapy with DMARDs to sustain remission.
Conclusion: This case highlights the importance of considering AOSD in AS patients presenting with PUO and
systemic inflammation. Timely diagnosis and appropriate treatment can reduce complications. Further studies
are needed to explore the pathophysiological links and optimize management strategies.

Published: December 2024

Background: Adenoid cystic carcinoma is one of the most common malignant neoplasms of salivary glands,
characterized by aggressive behavior, recurrence, metastasis to distant organs, and relative radio resistance,
rendering local control challenging to achieve.
Objective: The goal of this work is to shed light on the role of c-KIT in the pathogenesis of salivary adenoid cystic
carcinoma at the gene and protein levels.
Materials and Methods: c-KIT protein expression and gene levels were determined by real-time
immunohistochemistry (IHC) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in a total of fifty-two specimens of salivary
adenoid cystic carcinoma.
Results: The immunoreactivity for c-KIT antibody was observed among all of the studied cases, whereas, thirteen
cases tested for c-KIT gene mutations by DNA sequencing showed no detection of genetic mutation despite being
positive for immunohistochemistry.
Conclusion: Although c-KIT immunopositivity is high in salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma, the absence of gene
mutation renders target therapy ineffective.

Authors: kumar P Sunil , Nikesh M Nikesh M , Ramla KT Ramla KT
Published: December 2024

Massive star formation is one of the most
enigmatic topics in astrophysi- cal research. It
involves complex mechanisms such as accretion,
competitive accretion, and stellar collisions. A
comprehensive understanding requires multiwavelength studies, as different phases of star
formation emit distinct radiative signatures.
Massive stars significantly influence their
surroundings by forming HII regions and injecting
energy into the interstellar medium (ISM) via
stellar winds and ultraviolet radiation. This review
explore the theoretical and observational
perspectives on massive star formation, highlighting the challenges, processes, and their
profound impact on galactic evo- lution.
Effect of Suppliers Relationship Management Strategies on Bureau of Public Procurement (BPP) and National Petroleum Investment and Management Services (NAPIMS) in Nigeria
Authors: Tegbee Barinaaziga E , Ozurumba Benedict A. , Duru Erasmus E.
Published: December 2024

This work focused on NAPIMS, BPP and Supplier
Relationship Management Strategies in Nigeria.
Supplier Quality Improvement or SPM, Supplier
Lead Time Reduction or SLT, Supplier
Collaboration in New Product Development or
SCL and Supplier Partnership or Development was
recognized in this study as five major categories of
Supplier Relationship Management Strategies.
Self-developed questionnaires were used in data
collection for this study. The study’s analysis was
based on ordinal regression analysis. Procurement
success in Nigerian government agencies was
strongly predicted by the following factors: Its
types include supplier quality management (SQM),
supplier partnership or development (SPT),
supplier collaboration in the development of new
product (SCL), and trust based relationship with
suppliers (TBR). Based on the research, Supplier
Relationship Management Strategies enable
authorities in Nigeria to enhance their procurement
status . This means that the Nigerian National
Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) and other branches
of the Nigeria government have commenced the
use of SRM systems. Therefore, there is a need for
government agencies in Nigeria to establish
training that promotes constructive relationship
between the procurement employees and their
suppliers. Long term contracts are a great way to
build relationships with providers as well as
increase their confidence in you. To provide
suppliers with a better understanding of the
procurement process and to obtain improved results
from collaborative product development projects, it
is necessary to develop reference models
Theoretical links between consumer behaviorand movie watching decisions
Authors: Horváth Ádám , Gyenge Dr. Balázs
Published: December 2024

This study examines consumer behavior in relation to watching movies, focusing on the
specificities of decision-making as a film consumer, the links between the film interpretation of product life cycle
theory and the way in which individual and social factors influence film viewing. The logical structure of the
study, which is mainly based on literary sources, can be divided into three parts: an analysis of the consumer
decision-making process, in particular in terms of extended purchasing decisions (which can be expressed at the
level of both home and out-of-home movie watching decisions); an interpretation of the film life cycle model and
the consumer entry points per life cycle stage; and an exploration of the film-specific characteristics of various
consumer-specific influencing factors. The study highlights that movie watching preferences and decision
making are a complex process involving many factors, and provides a comprehensive insight into understanding
the dynamics between consumer behavior and the movie industry, which should be of particular value to any
marketer or researcher working in the movie industry.

Authors: LI Xianghao , ZHAO Yongli , ZHAO Hongda , LI Shaochuan , DIAO Peisong
Published: December 2024

To address the high damage rate and impurity content in corn ear picking, this study proposes the design of a gap-adjustable elastic low damage corn picking header. Theoretical analysis of the adaptive gap adjustment mechanism for the picking plate and the flexible picking mechanism will be conducted. Simulation experiments will be performed considering three factors: the stiffness coefficient of the compression spring, the rotational speed of the stalk-pulling roller, and the thickness of the flexible body. The test results indicate that the minimum collision force on the fruit cluster occurs when the stiffness coefficient of the compression spring is 36 N/mm, the rotational speed of the stalk-pulling roller is 700 r/min, and the thickness of the flexible body is 6 mm. When the header tilt angle was 25 degrees and the working speed was 3 km/h, using the stalk roller speed as the experimental variable, the collision force of the gap-adjustable elastic low-damage corn picking header was compared to that of the ordinary plate-type corn picking header. The results indicated that the collision force of the gap-adjustable elastic low-damage corn picking header was reduced by more than 25 % compared to the ordinary plate-type corn picking header.
Understanding COVID-19 Vaccination Uptake: Insights from a Coastal Community in Northern Mindanao
Authors: Araune Paolo
Published: December 2024

Background & Aim: The rapid spread of COVID-19 caused widespread disruption and highlighted the urgent need for vaccination strategies. Despite significant efforts, some communities, including one in coastal Northern Mindanao, faced challenges in achieving vaccination targets. This study aimed to identify barriers to COVID-19 vaccination uptake and their impact on behavioral practices in the community. Methods & Materials: This quantitative study employed correlational and descriptive statistical analyses to examine variables. Surveys were distributed to households and the barangay health center, utilizing stratified random sampling to ensure unbiased representation based on age. Participants aged 20-64, eligible for COVID-19 vaccination, were surveyed. Using the Cochran formula, a sample size of approximately 372 residents was determined. Results: No significant differences were found in respondents' agreement levels on COVID-19 vaccination behavioral practices across age groups. However, significant differences were observed based on educational attainment and gender. College graduates showed higher agreement levels in attitude and behavioral intention. Female respondents exhibited higher agreement in attitude and perceived behavioral control, while male respondents had higher agreement on subjective norms. No significant differences were found based on religion. Conclusion: Knowledge positively correlated with agreement on vaccination practices, underscoring the importance of education in addressing vaccine hesitancy. While religious affiliation influenced attitudes, individual beliefs within religious groups varied. These findings highlight the multifaceted factors influencing COVID-19 vaccination acceptance and suggest targeted interventions to address specific demographic disparities.

Authors: Marcelo Wirnitzer Gisela
Published: December 2024

La retraducción de obras de literatura infantil y juvenil es una realidad y funciona, hasta cierto punto, de manera diferente a la de la literatura para adultos. Por ello, en este trabajo presentamos un estudio cuantitativo del volumen de retraducciones de dos clásicos de literatura infantil y juvenil: Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland (1865), de Lewis Carroll, y The Jungle Book (1894), de Rudyard Kipling. El primer objetivo es determinar el número de retraducciones de estas dos obras canónicas a otras lenguas para intentar dilucidar las tendencias de este fenómeno en este ámbito editorial en cuanto a patrones de comportamiento sobre la retraducción en la literatura infantil y juvenil. Para ello se ha realizado una búsqueda en diferentes bases de datos de todas las retraducciones registradas hasta la fecha de estas dos obras. El segundo objetivo es intentar determinar cuáles son las motivaciones que se esconden detrás de estas retraducciones que la diferencian de la retraducción de la literatura para adultos.

Published: December 2024

Introduction: Fiber optic nasopahryngolaryngoscopy is a visual examination of the larynx and surrounding organs. It is an excellent method for determining the reasons for laryngeal problems, voice change, throat discomfort, and swallowing difficulties, and therefore, this should be utilized consistently in all ENT clinics. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic effectiveness of flexible fibreoptic nasopharyngolaryngoscopy as a diagnosis tool for ENT diseases. Methods: This was a retrospective study conducted in the Department of Otolaryngology (ENT), Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, Dhaka, Bangladesh, from January 2024 to June 2024. We included 100 patients irrespective of gender who underwent Fibreoptic Nasopharyngolaryngoscopy at our institution. Result: The mean age of our patients was 37.39±18.92 years. Most of our study patients (58%) were male and 42% were female. The most common presenting symptom was a change in voice (86%), followed by a burning sensation in the throat (6%), hoarseness of voice (4%), FB sensation (2%), and thyroid swelling (2%). The vocal cord nodules were the most common condition, affecting 50% of patients followed by the left vocal cord polyps (10%), and laryngitis (12%). Most of the patients (48%) were advised for conservative treatment & speech therapy. Conclusion: In our study, we found that fibreoptic nasopharyngolaryngoscopy is a beneficial diagnostic procedure for individuals experiencing symptoms related to the larynx. This process allows for a wide range of applications and may be carried out under local anesthesia in an outpatient department (OPD) setting.

Background: Post-operative wound dehiscence is a significant complication following tendoachilles reconstruction, which can lead to infection, delayed healing, and compromised tendon recovery. The unique anatomical and physiological characteristics of the Achilles tendon area contribute to the susceptibility of surgical wounds to dehiscence. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the outcomes related to wound dehiscence management in patients undergoing tendoachilles reconstruction, focusing on the effectiveness of various treatment and rehabilitation protocols. Method: A retrospective cohort analysis was conducted involving 300 patients who underwent tendoachilles reconstruction, categorized into surgical, early weight-bearing, and immobilization treatment groups. Data on demographic variables, rerupture rates, complication rates, and follow-up duration were collected and analyzed using random effects rate ratios to assess treatment efficacy. Results: The findings revealed a male predominance in all groups, with the minimally invasive group showing a rerupture rate of 3%, the open standard group at 2%, and the nonoperative group at 9%. Both surgical groups had a complication rate of 4%, while the nonoperative group had no complications. Early weight-bearing strategies demonstrated shorter time to weight-bearing but were associated with a slight increase in complications. Conclusion: Surgical interventions for tendoachilles reconstruction are associated with lower rerupture and complication rates compared to nonoperative treatments. Effective management of wound dehiscence requires a multifaceted approach that includes vigilant monitoring, appropriate wound care, and individualized rehabilitation strategies to optimize patient outcomes and enhance recovery.

Ganoderma species significantly threaten oil palm cultivation, leading to substantial plant mortality. To mitigate the impact of Ganoderma, the application of fungicides has been a common practice. However, the prolonged use of these chemical agents poses risks to environmental sustainability. Consequently, there is a pressing need for alternative, eco-friendly solutions, one of which is using liquid smoke derived from empty oil palm bunches (TTKS). This study aims to determine the effective concentration of liquid smoke from empty oil palm bunches in inhibiting the growth of Ganoderma species. The research was conducted at the Integrated Laboratory of the Faculty of Agriculture, Pasir Pengaraian University, from November 2023 to January 2024. An experimental methodology was employed, utilizing a completely randomized design (CRD) that included six treatment groups with three replications each. The total phenol content was analyzed using the Folin-Ciocalteau method using the Smart Spectro tool. The growth rate of Ganoderma colonies was measured using a ruler, applying a formula based on the Crueger formula (1984) as referenced in Pulungan (2022). The effectiveness of the inhibitory action was calculated using the formula provided by Rakesh (2013). Data analysis was conducted descriptively, followed by statistical tests of variance (ANOVA). The findings of this study indicate that TTKS liquid smoke contains active compounds capable of inhibiting the growth of Ganoderma species, specifically phenol, at a concentration of 2.12 mg/L. The application of TTKS liquid smoke demonstrated 100% effectiveness in inhibiting the growth of Ganoderma in Treatment G3 at a concentration of 3%, followed by G4 at 4% and G5 at 5%.

Tonsilitis merupakan peradangan umum pada tonsil yang sering terjadi pada anak-anak akibat kebiasaan makan tidak sehat dan kurangnya perhatian terhadap kebersihan mulut. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis hubungan antara pengetahuan mengenai konsumsi jajanan cepat saji dan kebersihan mulut terhadap kejadian tonsilitis pada siswa/i SMP Swasta Amal Luhur Medan. Penelitian menggunakan desain observasional analitik dengan pendekatan cross-sectional, melibatkan 32 sampel siswa/i berusia 12–15 tahun yang diambil secara purposive. Data diperoleh melalui kuesioner yang mencakup pengetahuan kebiasaan makan, kebersihan mulut, dan kejadian tonsilitis, kemudian dianalisis menggunakan uji chi-square. Hasil menunjukkan hubungan signifikan antara pengetahuan kebersihan mulut dan kejadian tonsilitis (p=0,01) serta antara kebiasaan konsumsi jajanan cepat saji dengan tonsilitis (p=0,02). Responden dengan kebersihan mulut buruk memiliki risiko lebih tinggi untuk mengalami tonsilitis dibandingkan dengan yang menjaga kebersihan mulut. Kesimpulannya, pendidikan kesehatan mengenai kebersihan mulut dan dampak jajanan cepat saji diperlukan untuk menurunkan prevalensi tonsilitis di kalangan siswa sekolah. Studi ini merekomendasikan penguatan program edukasi kesehatan serta revisi kebijakan menu kantin sekolah untuk menyediakan pilihan makanan yang lebih sehat.

Um número significativo de estudos destinados a discutir os vários aspectos da preparação dos atletas nos esportes coletivos têm sido publicado em todo o mundo nos últimos anos. No entanto, nota-se divergências e falta de consenso entre vários pesquisadores, pois ainda existem grandes dificuldades quanto a elaboração e prescrição de treinamento baseado no conhecimento da atividade competitiva. Neste sentido, o presente estudo objetiva diagnosticar e analisar a estrutura competitiva do handebol no aspecto arremessos na Liga Nacional de Handebol Masculino 99. Estruturou-se um estudo descritivo para analisar o volume de arremessos realizados pelas diferentes funções como os armadores centrais, direito e esquerdo, os extremos direitos e esquerdo e os pivôs. Os dados foram coletados em um total de 5 jogos da Liga Nacional de Handebol em 1999 e posteriormente realizado uma análise descritiva. Os dados apresentados dos arremessos realizados por função específica nos permitem apontar alguns pontos importantes, dos arremessos realizados, percebe-se que todas as funções realizam com maior freqüência o arremesso de ombro com apoio quando comparado aos outros tipos de arremesso . Espera-se com a elaboração desta pesquisa colaborar na sistematização de treinamento de arremessos na preparação de atletas na América do Sul, especificamente no Brasil.

O estudo teve como objetivo analisar os níveis de aptidão física relacionada à saúde de escolares de 11 a 14 anos, de ambos os sexos, pertencentes a uma escola pública de Marechal Cândido Rondon – Pr frente aos critérios propostos pelo Physical Best (1988). Participaram da amostra 113 alunos, sendo 57 rapazes e 56 moças, com idades variando entre 11 a 14 anos. Para obtenção dos indicadores do peso corporal, foram obtidas as medidas de IMC, somatório de dobras cutâneas (tricipital e subescapular). Os testes motores sentar-e-alcançar, abdominal em 1 minuto, flexão/extensão de braços em suspensão na barra e corrida/caminhada de 1609 m foram utilizados para determinação dos níveis de aptidão física. Para o tratamento estatístico dos dados, foi utilizado análise da freqüência relativa do alcance dos critérios propostos. Os resultados demonstraram ser satisfatórios para a maioria dos escolares de ambos os sexos, apresentando elevados índices nos critérios de saúde para o IMC e somatório de dobras cutâneas. Para os componentes de força e resistência musculares, os resultados do teste abdominal apresentou os menores índices de alcance dos critérios exigidos, com relação aos demais testes para ambos os sexos e em todas as idades. Quanto ao teste de força de membros superiores, ambos os sexos alcançaram em todas as idades mais de 90% do critério exigido. Com relação ao teste de corrida/caminhada, os resultados também foram baixos para ambos os sexos. Apenas as moças com idades 12 e 14 anos alcançaram os índices mais elevados, sendo 68,8 e 58,3% respectivamente. Entre os rapazes, os melhores resultados aconteceram aos 12 anos, sendo de 72,7%, e nas demais idades os resultados variaram apenas entre 18 a 29% que atenderam ao critério estabelecido. Quando se analisa o conjunto de testes que jovens de ambos os sexos alcançaram simultaneamente os critérios para saúde, verificou-se que por volta de 35,7% das moças atenderam ao menos cinco dos itens, e por volta de 12,5% para o conjunto de seis itens de testes. Como apenas uma pequena parte dos jovens de ambos os sexos não alcançaram os critérios estabelecidos em alguns itens específicos dos testes, podendo comprometer o estado de saúde em idades mais avançadas.

Natural ventilation is essential for air renewal, building cooling, and promoting thermal comfort for users; however, its analysis requires complex software. Water tables present an accessible and easy-to-handle alternative to overcome this limitation. The objective is to qualitatively assess whether the results generated by the water table accurately represent natural ventilation flow patterns in more complex physical models. Experimental tests are conducted on a water table and compared with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations to achieve this. The methodology consists of four stages: 1) Determining the model; 2) Characterizing the water table; 3) Describing the configurations used in the computational simulations; and 4) Analyzing the results. The results were satisfactory, showing similarities in air flow behavior in both the internal and external areas of the building, although discrepancies emerged in zones with low air circulation.
