Introdução: As infecções sexualmente transmissíveis (IST) causam grande impacto na saúde pública. Vários progressos foram feitos para redução das IST, contudo a pandemia da COVID-19 interrompeu esse processo, e recursos foram redirecionados para combater essa emergência sanitária. Assim, durante a pandemia, oportunidades de rastreamento das IST devem ser aproveitadas. Objetivo: Estimar a prevalência das hepatites B e C, HIV e sífilis em populações vulneráveis testadas para COVID-19. Métodos: Estudo transversal realizado em 631 pessoas em vulnerabilidade social atendidas pelo projeto TENDA COVID-19 da Universidade Federal de Goiás, de julho de 2020 a abril de 2021. Foram incluídos indivíduos com idade ≥18 anos. Todos foram entrevistados face a face, individualmente, utilizando-se instrumento de coleta de dados contendo variáveis sociodemográficas e comportamentos de risco para as IST. Amostras de sangue foram coletadas para detecção de anticorpos anti-T. Pallidum, anti-HIV, anti-HCV e HBsAg (antígeno de superfície do vírus da hepatite B), utilizando-se ensaio imunocromatográfico (teste rápido). Prevalências foram estimadas com intervalo de confiança de 95%. Este estudo foi aprovado pelo Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa da Universidade Federal de Goiás (CEP-UFG), Parecer nº 4.249.851. Resultados: Do total, 80 (12,7%) eram pessoas LGBT+, 286 (45,3%) catadores de material reciclável (CLR), 144 (22,7%) imigrantes/refugiados (IR) e 122 (19,3%) em situação de rua (SR). A prevalência de anti-HCV variou de 0% em pessoas LGBT+ a 6,6% em pessoas em SR. Por outro lado, enquanto nenhuma pessoa em SR foi positiva para o HBsAg, 8,4% dos IR foram positivos, indicando hepatite B. A positividade para teste rápido da sífilis variou de 8,4% em IR a 36,3% em pessoas LGBT+. Verificou-se que 6,3% das pessoas estavam vivendo com HIV, variando de 0,7% em CLR a 20% em pessoas LGBT+. Conclusão: Durante a pandemia, a testagem para COVID-19 poderia ter sido uma boa oportunidade para o rastreamento das IST. A variabilidade das frequências dessas infecções deve ser considerada nas ações de saúde.

Introdução: A sífilis congênita (SC), mesmo considerada uma doença evitável, permanece como importante problema de saúde pública, expondo a necessidade de melhorias na assistência pré-natal. Problemas relacionados ao diagnóstico e/ou tratamento ou descontinuidade no pré-natal tornam os riscos da transmissão vertical reais e podem gerar desfechos perinatais desfavoráveis, como aborto ou óbito infantil. Objetivo: Analisar os óbitos por SC nos municípios brasileiros de grande porte, no período de 2011 a 2020. Métodos: Estudo descritivo com dados do Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação (SINAN). Foi realizada comparação entre o número de óbitos por SC nos 326 municípios com população ≥100.000 habitantes em relação ao total de óbitos do mesmo agravo nas respectivas Unidades Federativas (UF). O Distrito Federal foi excluído da análise por ter apenas um município. Resultados: No período analisado, 2.896 casos de SC evoluíram para óbito em todo país; desses, 74,2% residiam em municípios de grande porte. Na região Norte, nos estados do Amapá e Roraima, todos os óbitos por SC ocorridos no período foram residentes em municípios de grande porte. Na região Sudeste, destaca-se que os municípios de grande porte do estado do Rio de Janeiro e São Paulo correspondem a 95,2 e 86,3% dos óbitos por SC, respectivamente, enquanto os do Mato Grosso do Sul, na região Centro-Oeste, representam 31%. Conclusão: Os municípios brasileiros de grande porte concentram maiores números de casos por serem centros de referência de assistência especializada, e por apresentarem mais dificuldades de acesso aos serviços de saúde, o que interfere diretamente no diagnóstico em tempo oportuno e no tratamento adequado à gestante. Por outro lado, contam com estrutura de vigilância capaz de detectar melhor os casos. Ao mesmo tempo, tem-se nesses municípios uma concentração de áreas com alta vulnerabilidade socioeconômica, interferindo diretamente no desfecho dos casos de SC.

Published: May 2024

Infecções por Chlamydia trachomatis (CT), Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG), Mycoplasma genitalium (MG) e Trichomonas vaginalis (TV) são prevalentes e assintomáticas em até 70% dos casos. Na gestação, as infecções sexualmente transmissíveis (IST) estão associadas a trabalho de parto prematuro, ruptura prematura de membranas e aborto. No Brasil, a triagem somente é realizada em populações especiais. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a prevalência de CT, NG, MG e TV em gestantes, correlacionando com dados sociodemográficos. Estudo aprovado pelo Comitê de Ética e Pesquisa em Seres Humanos do Setor de Ciências da Saúde da Universidade Federal do Paraná (UFPR). A amostra foi composta de 148 gestantes entre 18 e 49 anos, atendidas na atenção primária em Joinville, Santa Catarina. Os critérios de exclusão foram: antibioticoterapia nos últimos 3 meses e risco aumentado para aborto. Foi realizada coleta de dados e swab de secreção vaginal para investigação de CT, NG, MG e TV por biologia molecular. Os dados foram armazenados em base eletrônica, avaliados por teste de Fisher e de Shapiro-Wilk. Entre os microrganismos pesquisados, CT, TV e MG foram detectados em 11 (7,43%), 3 (2,03%) e 13 (8,78%) mulheres, respectivamente. NG não foi detectado na amostra. Houve três casos de infecção por mais de um microrganismo (2 CT + MG e 1 MG + TV). Aborto foi menos frequente em mulheres com CT detectado (p=0,022). A infecção por MG foi associada às gestantes casadas (p=0,014), já a tricomoníase foi verificada em mulheres com menos parceiros no último ano (p=0,042). A prevalência de MG nas gestantes merece destaque. CT e NG tiveram prevalência próxima a estudos brasileiros; já a TV se aproximou de taxas de países europeus. A ausência de sintomas clínicos, a não associação com comportamento sexual de risco e a prevalência encontrada reforçam a importância do rastreio desses microrganismos na gestação.
K.S. Puttaswamy Judgment After-effects: Moving Towards Transformative Constitutionalism
Authors: Vijay Jagriti , Singh Shiv Shankar
Published: May 2024

The Supreme Court is the custodian and interpreter of the Constitution. The Court has never been reluctant in transforming the Constitution for better to meet the societal needs. Article 21 is one of the most widely interpreted articles of the Constitution. The judgment of Maneka Gandhi marked the beginning of a new era with liberalized approach to the interpretation of Article 21 which later became the basis of establishing many other rights, including the right to privacy. Many years later, the landmark K.S. Puttaswamy judgment was passed which established that the “right to privacy” is protected under Part III of the Constitution of India, marking the beginning of another era. Since then, it has become a significant precedent in many cases, which not only was reiterated, but also the scope and ambit of right to privacy in India has been significantly widened in subsequent judgments. This paper analyses the scope of Article 21 and judgments which elaborated its scope. Further the paper traces the journey of right to privacy which was possible through judicial interpretation of Article 21. Since K.S. Puttaswamy judgment has become pivotal in this journey therefore the entire scheme revolves around this juncture. Firstly, pre-Puttaswamy era judgment has been discussed followed by an analysis of the K.S. Puttaswamy judgment then the effect of this judgment in subsequent judgments have been traced with the help of relevant case laws.

Authors: Chawla Neha K.
Published: May 2024

Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) is creating a lot of waves these days in the Indian economy due to its digital character. It is a sovereign currency issued by the central bank and a fungible legal tender for which users need not have a bank account. It is a much faster real-time tool to not only do a simple exchange of funds but for development of India’s monetary policy. In other words, CBDC is the physical bank note which is now put on a blockchain. Many questions arise about the legal and policy implications of CBDC. Even people are muddled as to what is the need of introducing a digital currency when cryptocurrency and other e-payment platforms are existent. This paper shall try and highlight the effect on the economy by introduction of digital currency and what are the major privacy, security, technological and monetary policy concerns surrounding it. It shall also draw comparisons from other jurisdictions where a digital currency has already been bought into force.

Green accounting practices from the perspectives of legitimacy theory and stakeholders in the food and beverage industry
Authors: Putri Rizha Khentias , Aminah  , Khairudin
Published: May 2024

Implementing green accounting is a way for companies to improve environmentally friendly operations where there is a relationship between operating funds and the company's environmental budget. The impact of green accounting in companies influences environmental performance and environmental disclosure, which is a new variable from the dependent variable in this research. The independent variable is a financial performance variable measured using the Return on Asset (ROA) ratio of registered food and beverage sector manufacturing companies on the Indonesian Stock Exchange from 2019 to 2022. This research aims to determine how green accounting implementation impacts the company's financial performance. In this research, 44 sample companies were selected purposively. Using a dummy variable regression analysis model, the test results show that environmental disclosure variables influence financial performance, but environmental performance variables do not. The limitation of this research lies in the need for more samples used so that future research is expected to be able to add samples by expanding the research population.

Assessing the expectations of Generation Z customers towards last-mile delivery in E-commerce: A case study in Ho Chi Minh City
Authors: Nguyen Quynh Lam , Thuc Phan Van , Thuy Nguyen Thi , Tien Nguyen Thi Kim , Sang Le Thanh
Published: May 2024

This study focuses on assessing the impact of various factors influencing Generation Z consumers' expectations of last-mile delivery services when purchasing goods on e-commerce platforms within Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC), to improve service quality and propose delivery processes for efficient last-mile delivery. What is new compared to previous studies is the emphasis on the impact of environmental protection policies and green initiatives on the expectations of Gen Z customers. In this study, the authors propose the factor "Environmental Protection Policy" to build a scale to measure customer expectations in last-mile delivery service. A survey involving 435 participants who belong to Gen Z and frequently utilize e-commerce services in HCMC provided the primary data for this analysis. Utilizing quantitative analytical techniques, including Cronbach's alpha reliability test, exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and multiple regression analysis, this research tested several hypotheses. The results corroborate that the expectations of Gen Z consumers regarding delivery services on e-commerce platforms in HCMC are significantly shaped by five pivotal factors: Delivery speed, reliability, responsiveness, environmental protection policy, and cost. The study notably highlights cost as the predominant factor exerting the most substantial influence on the expectations concerning last-mile delivery services. This study has made a significant contribution to the body of knowledge that e-commerce platforms and logistics firms may use to raise the bar for delivery services that Gen Z consumers anticipate.
The Pragmatics of Reading: Sense Groups in a Second Language Written Discourse
Authors: Saad Alghamdi Sami
Published: May 2024

Two principles--one, cognitive and the other, linguistic--form the foundation of this paper. Human activities are structured in clusters—in meaningful or logical combinations of fragments. Our cognitive perception of human activities, experience, and the world by itself is shaped in clusters. The reality in terms of objects, actions, and phenomena is also perceived in clusters of fragments. Consequently, when it comes to language, which is a mode of representing reality, words cannot exist independently or in isolation, words exist only in collocation, in meaningful combination. Since reading is a mode of perceiving and representing reality, naturally the act of reading too must be structured in logically constructed sense groups. Mastery of many skills and competence is an essential prerequisite for good comprehension of a written text, especially in a second language. This awareness of sense groups at the intra-sentence and inter-sentence level and the ability to identify sense groups make the process of reading comprehension easier and more productive. Therefore, second language learners are to me trained meaningfully (not mechanically) in identifying sense groups within sentences, as a result, the construction of meaning out of reading becomes a joint activity of cognition and language faculty.

Authors: Granados Flores Neftalí Alexander , Rumoroso García José Alfonso
Published: May 2024

La enfermedad de Osler-Weber-Rendu (OWR), también conocida como displasia vascular multisistémica o telangiectasia hemorrágica hereditaria. Es un trastorno autosómico dominante raro, caracterizado por el desarrollo de displasias vasculares (DV), como telangiectasias y malformaciones arteriovenosas de localización mucocutánea o visceral, las cuales muestran tendencia al sangrado, que pueden afectar cualquier órgano o sistema, con la epistaxis como la presentación clínica inicial más frecuente. Aunque el diagnóstico definitivo se basa en estudios genéticos, su baja disponibilidad y alto costo han llevado al uso de métodos de imagen para identificar los hallazgos que guían la sospecha clínica. Se presentan tres casos con diagnóstico de OWR y los hallazgos por imagen de DV hepática, gastrointestinal y pulmonar.

Authors: Manrique Salas Juan Pablo , Cortes León Chrystiam Camilo , Duarte González Massiel , Navarro Estrada Beatriz Mariana
Published: May 2024

La enfermedad de Moyamoya y el síndrome de Moyamoya se refieren a una vasculopatía estenooclusiva progresiva en las porciones terminales de las arterias carótidas internas bilaterales y/o las partes proximales de las arterias cerebrales media y anterior, con formación prominente de arterias colaterales. Pudiendo generar daños irreversibles en la hemodinámica cerebral debido a la naturaleza progresiva en los vasos cerebrales afectados, el examen patológico no muestra lesiones ateroscleróticas o inflamatorias y la causa de la estenosis es el sobrecrecimiento de la capa de músculo liso, con cambios trombóticos.
La enfermedad conduce no solo a un grado diferente de estenosis y oclusiones de las grandes arterias de la parte anterior del polígono de Willis, sino también al desarrollo de la vasculatura colateral que produce una imagen angiográfica típica, denominada 'nubes de humo' o 'puff de humo de cigarrillo'.
Se presenta el caso de una paciente femenina de 28 años quien cursa con una clínica insidiosa y un diagnóstico clínico e imagenológico previo errado, en quien se realiza resonancia magnética de cerebro de control evidenciando hallazgos por imagen y angiorresonancia compatibles con enfermedad de Moyamoya; se analizan los hallazgos imagenológicos del síndrome en las diferentes modalidades de estudios radiológicos.
Competências ao letramento científico emergentes em ciclos de modelagem
Authors: Souza Ednilson Sergio Ramalho de , Carmo Everaldo Almeida do , Sousa Emerson Silva de
Published: May 2024

Na literatura brasileira, é possível encontrar diversas concepções de modelagem matemática: alternativa pedagógica, estratégia de ensino-aprendizagem, metodologia de ensino, ambiente de aprendizagem, dentre outras. Consideramos que diferentes concepções revelam várias possibilidades de desenvolver letramento científico. Embora haja na literatura uma diversidade de entendimentos sobre o significado de letramento científico, pode-se entendê-lo como a capacidade de argumentação científica sobre problemas do mundo natural, social, tecnológico fazendo-se uso dos aportes teóricos e processuais da ciência. A questão que se propõe é: como professores em exercício da educação básica percebem a modelagem matemática enquanto promotora de letramento científico? O objetivo é analisar competências ao letramento científico emergentes em ciclos de modelagem com professores da educação básica. A metodologia foi qualiquantitativa e envolveu inserção dos professores em um ciclo de modelagem, aplicação de um instrumento diagnóstico contendo vinte competências ao letramento científico, tabulação e interpretação dos dados por meio da análise textual discursiva. Os resultados evidenciam que o ciclo de modelagem pode favorecer principalmente ao desenvolvimento da capacidade para adquirir habilidades de comunicação oral e escrita, para gerar e utilizar modelos constituídos por múltiplas ferramentas de representação e para usar diferentes linguagens visando a manifestar aprendizagens. Infere-se que a modelagem matemática possui potencialidades para desenvolver letramento científico e que tal potencialidade deve ser explorada na educação básica. Ressalta-se que a temática letramento científico e modelagem matemática deveria ser um assunto mais discutido na comunidade de pesquisadores da educação matemática e científica, pois, como este estudo mostrou, existem diversas possibilidades de se elaborar uma agenda de pesquisa nesse campo, o que certamente poderia contribuir para as discussões interdisciplinares entre ciências e matemática.
Aesthetic Normativity, Aesthetic Education, and Hypothetical Judgments
Authors: Fenner David
Published: May 2024

In this article, I will try to show that (1) one of the more compelling reasons for advocating for aesthetic normativity comes from an axiom that suppositionally underlies aesthetic educational endeavors and (2) by framing aesthetic judgments contextually and hypothetically we may be able to deal effectively with one of the more compelling reasons for antinormativity, namely the fact of irreconcilable differences between judgments of two equally competent judges. I will try to show that framing judgments contextually is common practice in aesthetic education.
Irresistible Invitations: Relational Possibilities in Collaborative Tea Experience
Authors: shoppell samantha
Published: May 2024

This arts-based research study investigates the relational possibilities afforded by shared experience when participants are invited to collaborate in a tea gathering. Inspired by Japanese tea ceremony tradition and the relations of host and guests, who demonstrate mutual respect and appreciation through prescribed gestures, the author aims to translate and make more accessible the relational possibilities of this practice by inviting guests to collaborate and co-create the experience. Through these gatherings, participant-collaborators explore the interplay of relational potential, sensory experience, and collaboration. This article considers how the relational dynamics of host and guest can have implications for art education when the teacher is understood as a host to student-guests in interdependent roles.
Konsep Industrialisasi, Transformasi Struktural
Authors: Yosse Putra Oentoro  , Ivonia Auxilidora Freitas Marcal  , Muhammad Yasin
Published: May 2024

This research explores the concepts of industrialization and structural transformation, two phenomena that are interrelated and have a crucial role in the economic development of a country. Industrialization is the process by which a country or region shifts its economy from an agricultural to an industrial basis, involving increased production of goods and services through the introduction of new technologies and increased production capacity. Structural transformation, on the other hand, refers to fundamental changes in the structure of the economy, involving a shift from the primary sector (agriculture) to the secondary (industry) and tertiary (services) sectors. This study highlights how industrialization drives structural transformation by creating new jobs, increasing productivity, and changing consumption patterns and income distribution. This research also discusses factors that influence these two processes, including government policy, foreign investment, and technological innovation. Through analysis of various cases of countries that have successfully carried out industrialization and structural transformation, this research provides insight into effective strategies that can be implemented by developing countries to achieve sustainable and inclusive economic growth.

The figures discussed in this chapter were forward-looking thinkers who were able to adapt to the needs of their times. All of them in one way or another were steeped in the Christian tradition and can be characterised as the forefathers of a United Europe. They were able to set aside their own preferences when a broader ideal required it. Ignaz Seipel was able to negotiate with representatives of the socialist party; although he personally preferred the state form of Monarchy, he played a decisive role in the enactment of the constitution of the Republic of Austria. In the context of his time, he can be considered extraordinarily open minded, not only concerning his political agreements but also, for instance, his friendship with Hildegard Burjan. Richard Coudenhove-Kalergi was an early visionary of European unification in the face of non-European world powers. He saw Pan-America, East Asia, the Russian Empire, the British Empire, and Europe as the five planetary force fields that made up the world. The pathway to strike a balance in this system would have been the founding of the United States of Europe. In 1925, he founded the ‘Paneuropa Union’ with its headquarters in the Vienna Hofburg and with the support of the Ignaz Seipel. The situation in Europe changed significantly after World War II, and Coudenhove-Kalergi adapted his programme to the new geopolitical situation. Until the end of his life, he struggled for the unification of Europe as a guarantee for peace. Otto von Habsburg, son of the last emperor of the Monarchy, can be considered one of the most outstanding supporters of a United Europe. He realised his political activity as successor of Coudenhove-Kalergi as President of the Paneuropen movement and from 1979 as a deputy to the European Parliament. He based his idea of European unification on the principles of democracy, federalism, subsidiarity, and solidarity. Cardinal Franz König advocated for the development of understanding between diverse people and religions. He believed that a United Europe must include both the Eastern and western halves of the continent and should be implemented to uphold peace. He was convinced that promoting Christian unity played a significant role in the progress of this unification and played a significant role in bridging the gap between Eastern and Western Europeans during the Iron Curtain era. Erhard Busek commendably combined his engagement as a local and federal politician with his commitment to the countries of Eastern Europe. In Busek’s view, the Danube should serve as a second river of unification after the Rhine. He further believed that economic cooperation, education, and intensive collaboration should play a preeminent role in the unification process. Busek served as a representative of Austria in the process of the enlargement of the European Union. He also held the position of chairman of the Institute for the ‘Danube Region and Central Europe’.
Between Central Europe and Europe (Slovenians and European concepts)
Authors: Lazarević Žarko
Published: May 2024

In the case of the Slovenians, it is difficult to discuss elaborate European concept at various levels before the last quarter of the 20 th century. As a rule, these concepts represented a summary or imitation of others that circulated in the European territory. Even if the Slovenians did not actively contribute to the development of European political concepts, they nevertheless learned about them and recognised themselves in them (or not). Perhaps they did not conceive Europe as an idea, but they certainly lived it. They reflected upon Europe during a period of profound turning points and a geostrategic vacuum. The idea that integration into a supranational community was necessary to ensure smooth national development, while maintaining an open economy would enable the internationalisation of the economy to achieve greater scale, was a historical constant.

Published: May 2024

Litter fall and nutrients return by eight year old trees of Albizia amara in a silvopastoral system on degraded shallow soils of Jhansi was assessed. The average litter production was 6.08 t/ha/yr of which major proportion was leaf (84.2 %) followed by branch (12.8 %), miscellaneous (1.8 %) and pod (1.2 %). The litter fall was recorded throughout the year; highest litter production was recorded in the month of February (1.5 t/ha), followed by January (0.87 t/ha) and April (0.72 t/ha). The total litter production was significantly correlated with leaf litter (r = 0.96) and branch litter (r = 0.89). No significant correlation was found between climatic parameters and leaf litter. However, branch litter production was negatively correlated with the average minimum temperature (r = 0.55). Among different litter parts, highest concentration of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium was found in pod followed by leaf, miscellaneous and branch. Potential nutrient return to the system on account of tree litter produced by this species, computed on an annual basis, was 77.8 kg/ha nitrogen, 49.6 kg/ha potassium and 3.9 kg/ha phosphorus.

Darjeeling Himalaya is a typical mountainous terrain composed of tropical, temperate, and alpine ecosystems and widely varying elevation ranges followed by a great diversity of flora and fauna. About 30% of the total geographical area (TGA) falls under forest cover, about one-third area as tea gardens and the rest is under agriculture and medicinal plants cultivation. There are no large floriculture gardens of public interest as yet, interestingly, aesthetic and commercial floriculture is almost wholly confined to individual home premises. In pursuance of the guidelines prescribed by the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD)-1992, this paper, reflects the outcomes of a three-year project, sponsored by the Govind Ballabh Pant ‘National Institute of Himalayan Environment’ (NIHE), Almora, India (formerly known as G.B. Pant Institute of Himalayan Environment & Development), and would seek to address five main objectives, namely, survey and documentation of wild species including rare and endangered ones; identifying areas where R&D is needed to safeguard and enhance the health of the plants and animals at the species, genetic and ecosystem level; conservation and rational utilization of natural resources as related to the process of sustainable development; generating mass awareness through education and training on scientific, economic, environmental, ecological and social dimensions of biodiversity; and, raising necessary manpower needed to promote sustainable growth and development of biodiversity resources on a long term basis.

The article conducts a SWOT analysis of cyber threats, identifies the strengths and weaknesses of cryptocurrencies. It is determined that the development of cryptocurrencies forms a new class of digital assets, which is attracting increasing attention from the economic and financial communities and information technology. The issue of detecting fraudulent transactions with cryptocurrency is highlighted. To solve the problems of detecting fraudulent transactions, the authors propose to use new technologies based on data analysis methods, in particular, the development of logistic regression models. The following algorithm for classifying fraudulent transactions with cryptocurrency is proposed, which is reduced to the classical data classification scheme. The following steps are highlighted: data loading into the dataset and primary analysis, data preparation for analysis, division into training and test samples, application of the classification algorithm on the training sample, evaluation of the model accuracy on the test sample, model optimization if necessary, and conclusion, where, if the model accuracy is high, it can be used to classify fraudulent transactions. The main task of the presented stages is to detect suspicious cryptocurrency transactions with as few false positives as possible. The classification of cryptocurrency transactions is proposed to be carried out with the Ethereum cryptocurrency. The R language and its integrated processing environment R Studio are chosen as tools. A logistic regression model has been developed to detect fraudulent transactions with cryptoassets. The model checks a new transaction for fraud. The model's high accuracy of 98 percent demonstrates its effectiveness. The model can be improved to take into account new types of fraudulent schemes and applied to analyze transactions with different assets, making it promising for use in financial institutions and cryptocurrency exchanges.
