Published: January 2025

O número de casos de crianças diagnosticadas com o Transtorno do Espectro do Autismo (TEA) nos últimos anos teve um aumento significativo. A comunicação restritiva e a falta de interação social apresentadas por este grupo ocasionam um ambiente não estimulante para atividades de rotina diária como a escovação dental, e a seletividade alimentar que configura numa dieta rica em alimentos cariogênicos. Uma revisão integrativa nas bases de dados PUBMED (The US National Library of Medicine), BIREME (Latin American and Caribean Health Sciences Information Database) e SCIELO (The Scientific Eletronic Library) buscou responder a seguinte questão: "Quais técnicas de manejo atitudinal contribuem para a higiene e saúde bucal em crianças com TEA?" A análise dos resultados foi feita através do modelo de fluxograma com 25 artigos aptos aos critérios de seleção. Os resultados indicam que o aumento de problemas bucais em crianças com TEA partem da dificuldade de higienização oral por parte dos pais e cuidadores, somadas a falta de conhecimento sobre técnicas pedagógicas para facilitar os cuidados bucais e a desinformação sobre dieta cariogênica.

Nursing knowledge and professional practice in enteral nutrition by nasogastric tube in hospitalized adults
Authors: Molina Maira Belén
Published: January 2025

Introduction: The critically ill patient presents a deterioration of nutritional status that requires life support for recovery. Enteral nutrition (EN) is considered the first choice for nutritional support due to its ability to maintain the physiological processes of digestive function and preserve the intestinal barrier. This study focused on assessing the level of knowledge and performance of procedures related to the administration of EN by nasogastric tube (NGT) in nurses in an intensive care unit (ICU).Methods: An analysis was conducted on a population of 27 nurses working in an ICU. The sample was characterized by a female majority at the technical level, with an average age slightly over 36 years. Professional seniority averaged more than 10 years, while ICU seniority averaged more than 6 years. General knowledge of EN administered by NGLS was assessed, as well as the procedures performed before, during and after administration. Previous training in EN and willingness to undertake future training were also considered.Results: Almost 60% of the nurses had received some type of education or training in EN, and 100% expressed interest in continuing to participate in this type of activity. The general level of knowledge about the administration of EN by NGUS was 41.85% of correct answers. As for the appropriate mode of administration, the overall level reached 46.67%. The procedures performed before administration obtained a better performance (52.31%) compared to those observed during administration (39.51%) and at the end of administration (40.74%). Strengths in knowledge were evident in four key items: recommendations on medication administration, knowledge of the economic benefits of nutritional intervention, prevention of NE-drug incompatibilities, and benefits of NE in the hospitalized patient. Procedures highlighted included proper feeding bottle height and correct patient positioning prior to administration.Conclusions: The study revealed that although nurses showed interest in improving their knowledge and skills, the overall level of knowledge and execution of procedures related to NE administration by NGNS was low. The identified strengths and highlighted procedures prior to administration reflect areas of opportunity for improvement through ongoing training. Specific education and training in NE are essential to optimize nutritional care of critically ill patients.
Cardiovascular risk control in public transport drivers: Proposal for a theoretical model of protective motivation

Published: January 2025

Introduction: In Mexico, the mortality rate for cardiovascular diseases is 146.3 deaths per 100,000 inhabitants; ischemic forms are prominent. Public transport drivers are a vulnerable group to develop this disease due to the working conditions to which they are exposed. The objective is to propose a theoretical model of protective motivation for the control of the risk of cardiovascular disease in public transport drivers.Methods: A literature search was conducted in databases on the application of the protective motivation theory and the risk of cardiovascular disease, in Spanish and English.Results: The theoretical model was formed by the variables of perceived vulnerability, perceived severity, fear, self-efficacy, perceived efficacy, threat assessment, coping assessment, protection motivation and behavior (control of cardiovascular disease risk).Conclusions: The proposed model is an alternative to explain individual behaviors that could motivate individuals to take action in favor of their health, given the perception of threats and the coping skills that can influence the control of cardiovascular disease risk. Using the protective motivation model in nursing practice could contribute to modifying behaviors that position individuals to improve their health status.

Authors: Acevedo Sánchez Juan Francisco , González-Contreras Ana Isabel , Moreno Benítez Ana María
Published: January 2025

Introduction: the recognition of emotions allows humans to adapt to their social environment, allowing for communicative exchange, social inclusion, and the integral well-being of people. Especially for those older adults who are institutionalized. In fact, following the containment measures since COVID-19, the mandatory use of masks in health centers and nursing homes has been established, which implies a change in the ability to understand and react to facial emotions. Objective: to assess the impact of the use of masks on the recognition of emotional facial expressions in institutionalized older adults (old age) without cognitive impairment compared to the control group (adults). Methods: to do this, we evaluated 18 older people (healthy institutionalized residents, equal to or older than 70 years) and 18 healthy controls between 19 and 67 years old using the adaptation of the faces database emotional facial expression recognition task. results: the control group's performance was significantly better in the three modalities evaluated (emotions without a mask, emotions with a surgical mask, and emotions with a fpp2 mask). conclusions: it is confirmed that older adults "old age" have difficulties interpreting emotional expressions. This fact demonstrates the peculiarities of aging regarding the progressive loss of physical and cognitive abilities to process emotions. In addition, recognizing emotions is made more difficult when part of a person's face is masked. On the other hand, it is shown that there are no differences in the recognition of emotions based on sex.

Published: January 2025

Este estudio analiza el impacto del cambio climático en la economía agrícola de la provincia de Manabí, Ecuador, centrándose en los fenómenos recurrentes de sequías e inundaciones. La metodología empleada incluyó un enfoque mixto con herramientas cualitativas y cuantitativas, como análisis documental, entrevistas a agricultores y uso de datos estadísticos oficiales del INEC. Estos métodos permitieron explorar las características del sector agrícola y su relación con las variaciones climáticas a lo largo del tiempo. Entre los principales hallazgos, se destaca que las sequías prolongadas y las inundaciones recurrentes afectan negativamente la productividad agrícola y fomentan la migración de las áreas rurales a las urbanas. Además, el uso intensivo de agroquímicos, como respuesta a los desafíos climáticos, ha agravado problemas como la degradación del suelo y la deforestación. Sin embargo, el sector agrícola de Manabí muestra una notable capacidad de resiliencia, impulsada por políticas de mitigación y prácticas sostenibles, logrando recuperaciones periódicas en la producción de cultivos clave como el plátano, el maíz y el cacao. Este estudio concluye que Manabí representa un laboratorio natural para comprender los efectos del cambio climático en la economía agrícola, evidenciando la necesidad de estrategias adaptativas integrales para garantizar la sostenibilidad del sector.

Authors: Herrera Vargas Augusto
Published: January 2025

El estudio investiga las discrepancias entre los valores catastrales y comerciales de terrenos urbanos en el municipio de Warnes, Santa Cruz Bolivia, con el objetivo de proponer una revisión de la zonificación y actualizar los valores catastrales para reflejar mejor los precios de mercado. A través de encuestas a 118 residentes y el análisis de variables como el tamaño del lote, el número de pisos, el año de construcción, el costo de compra, el vecindario, el uso y la ubicación de las propiedades, se utilizaron modelos de regresión lineal y análisis de frecuencias univariadas para identificar los factores que influyen en estas diferencias. Los principales hallazgos revelan que los valores comerciales suelen ser más altos que los catastrales, y que factores como el tamaño del lote, el número de pisos y el costo de compra son determinantes en esta disparidad. El modelo estadístico desarrollado logra explicar el 78% de la variación en estas diferencias. En conclusión, el estudio sugiere la necesidad de actualizar los valores catastrales y revisar la zonificación en Warnes para que el valor catastral se distribuya mejor con el valor de mercado, mejorando así la equidad en la tributación de los terrenos urbanos dentro del municipio de Warnes.

JUSTICE OF THE HERITAGE 2:1 DISTRIBUTION IN ARTICLE 176 OF ISLAMIC LAW COMPILATION PERSPECTIVE IN ARISTOTLE’S DISTRIBUTIVE JUSTICE THEORY
Authors: Rijal Arhamu
Published: January 2025

This paper explores the justice of inheritance distribution as outlined in Article 176 of the Compilation of Islamic Law, specifically focusing on the 2:1 distribution ratio. The study addresses the perception of inequality that arises from this distribution, which some individuals view as unjust. To evaluate the fairness of this inheritance model, the research employs Aristotle's Theory of Distributive Justice as a theoretical framework. The methodology utilized is normative legal research, incorporating both statutory and conceptual approaches to analyze the relevant regulations and principles surrounding the 2:1 inheritance distribution. The findings indicate that the 2:1 distribution in Article 176 maintains a value of justice, as the rights allocated to male and female heirs are proportionate to their respective obligations. This conclusion challenges the notion that the distribution is inherently unjust, suggesting instead that it reflects a balanced approach to inheritance that aligns with the principles of justice articulated by Aristotle. The research ultimately contributes to the discourse on Islamic inheritance law by reaffirming the legitimacy of the 2:1 distribution ratio within the context of distributive justice.

There are several things that might become the aftermath of someone’s trauma. It might influence someone’s capability to form any social interaction with other people or even how someone feel about themselves. To cope with their own trauma, one usually does something unconsciously to make them feel better, as a normal effort that might be carried out by someone to protect their selves from being hurt. This is qualitative research where the data are taken from a graphic novel entitled The End of the F***ing World by Charles Forsman. Sigmund Freud’s psychoanalysis will be used as the grand theory to analyse the character’s core issue, especially for the part of psychosexual development and defense mechanism. This research aims to discuss about James, the main character in The End of the F***ing World, who is struggling with his surroundings as the effects of his childhood trauma. This research reveals that James’ core issue is Oedipus complex and unstable sense of self, which is strongly associated with his trauma of witnessing his mother’s suicide. The loss of his mother has also affected James’ personality as well that he got stuck in his phallic stage and became mother-fixated. Since James did not successfully resolve his phallic stage, his tripartite model becomes imbalance. When the id in himself started to become too demanding, James let out his defense mechanism, which are displacement and repression.

Globalization and the development of information technology, especially the internet, have changed many aspects of human life, which includes the way people connect with each other. Easy access to new information and social media usage, such as Facebook, create new legal challenges, especially when it comes to defamation. In Indonesia, the ITE Law regulates online behavior related to defamation, and Articles 1365 and 1372 of the Civil Code allow victims to claim damages, both physical and psychological, for losses suffered. This research aims to understand that defamation can be categorized as a violation of the law and punitive damages can be claimed. This normative juridical research uses primary legal materials, such as the Civil Code, Criminal Code, and Electronic Information Technology Law, as with secondary legal materials such as literature and journals. Articles 1365-1380 of the Civil Code regulate unlawful acts that can damage a person’s reputation. For instance, the case of Iin Yuhinda v. Septiano Broery Hidayat shows that defamation is a tort if it fulfills the elements in Article 1365 of the Civil Code. In addition, Articles 1243-1252 of the Civil Code also regulate compensation in violation of law cases. The results of this research indicated that a person who is damaged by defamation has the right to file a claim for compensation because it violates the law. Article 1365 of the Civil Code states that any act that harms another person must be compensated, while Articles 1372-1380 regulate the manner of claiming compensation for defamation.

No Brasil, a taxa estimada de IRAS é 10%, o que é relevante à saúde pública devido à alta morbimortalidade e custos. A pandemia de COVID-19 foi um dos principais desafios atuais devido ao alto número de internações, maior tempo de hospitalização e sobrecarga aos sistemas de saúde. Este estudo teve como objetivo conhecer o perfil microbiano das IRAS e o perfil de resistência aos antimicrobianos dos microrganismos isolados nos hospitais da região de Araçatuba-SP no período da pandemia. Foi realizada uma análise de dados do sistema de Gerenciamento de ambiente laboratorial (GAL) das cepas recebidas pelo Instituto Adolfo Lutz de Araçatuba-SP durante o período apresentado. Do total de 56 isolados recebidos, 52% eram de pacientes do sexo feminino e a média de idade dos pacientes foi 58,1 anos. Acinetobacter baumannii foi o patógeno mais isolado (85%) especialmente de secreção oronasofaringeana, sangue e secreção traqueal. Dos isolados de A. baumannii, todos apresentaram resistência às cefalosporinas, fluoroquinolonas, carbapenêmicos e portavam o gene blaOXA-23, responsável pela expressão de carbapenemases. Os dados obtidos nesse estudo corroboram a preocupação da OMS com relação ao A. baumannii, a qual exige uma vigilância epidemiológica atuante e a implementação de práticas de prevenção e controle de infecções.
Comparative Analysis of Carcinogenic Compounds in Cooking Oil Emissions and Cigarette Smoke: Implications for Genetic Disorders and Cancer Susceptibility
Authors: Karukayil Gopalakrishnan Niranjana , Syed Ansar Sana , Pappuswamy Manikantan , Chaudhary Aditi
Published: January 2025

This chapter endeavours to elucidate the striking similarities between the emissions originating from cooking oils and the smoke produced by cigarettes, both teeming with a cocktail of carcinogenic compounds such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, aromatic amines, and nitro-polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. This analysis posits a profound potential for noteworthy chromosomal modifications akin to those observed in response to exposure to cigarette smoke. Moreover, an augmented prevalence of genetic disorders, encompassing spontaneous abortion, is envisaged. The principal thrust of this paper lies in elaborating upon the inherent cancer-inducing attributes of these carcinogens present in both cooking oil fumes and cigarette smoke. Furthermore, it delves into the demographic cohorts exhibiting heightened susceptibility to such cytogenetic alterations.
Implementing Carbon Storage Technology to Combat Climate Change

Published: January 2025

Injecting CO2 into depleted oil reservoirs is a key strategy for mitigating excess atmospheric carbon. In India, where Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) incentives are limited, CO2 EOR (Enhanced Oil Recovery) serves as a commercially viable method for carbon storage. Effective reservoir management (RM) is critical to ensuring the success of CO2 injection, as it integrates insights from primary, secondary, and EOR/EOR+ phases. This study introduces an integrated carbon storage development strategy tailored for a mature Indian oilfield, employing both analytical and numerical tools to conduct a thorough analysis of a depleted stacked pay reservoir. Using over 30 years of dynamic field data, we identified a storage potential exceeding five million metric tons, alongside an incremental oil recovery factor of 11% of the original oil-in-place (OOIP). Additionally, eliminating the waterflooding stage enhances storage capacity by an estimated 0.5 million tons, while ongoing aquifer water production could contribute approximately 0.35 million tons of storage annually. This approach highlights the significant carbon storage potential in mature fields, emphasizing the importance of integrated RM, particularly in regions lacking robust CCUS policies.

Vitiligo: Etiology and Pathophysiology
Authors: Almutairi Rawan
Published: January 2025

Vitiligo’s etiology is still unclear and remains the subject of many studies. It is considered to be an autoimmune-related disease in which autoantigens recognized by T cells from the vitiligo patient were identified during the last decades. Autoimmune reactions against melanocytes and the transfer of specific antigens are required for the development of the disease. In addition, environmental factors may be involved in vitiligo’s triggering or facilitating the appearance of lesions. Recently, oxidative stress has been identified as a modification in the microenvironment, and several stress factors can promote or inhibit the development of the disease. In terms of treatments, since a number of conventional treatment techniques have been established, vitiligo therapy has advanced significantly during the last few years. Nevertheless, there is currently no permanent treatment for vitiligo. It necessitates determining which signaling pathways and target molecules are particularly compromised in vitiligo. This chapter intends to address the etiology and pathophysiology of vitiligo, and attempts to address new developments in vitiligo treatment, particularly biologics and Janus kinases (JAK) inhibitors.

Published: January 2025

Kidney transplantation is a life-saving procedure for individuals with end-stage renal disease, yet the process of transplantation can trigger the activation of the complement system, a critical component of the body’s immune response. This activation can lead to adverse outcomes, including acute and chronic rejection of the graft, thereby complicating patient management and graft survival. Furthermore, the interplay between complement activation and immunosuppressive therapies remains a key area of research, as prolonged immunosuppression may enhance the risk of complications while failing to adequately control the immune response against the transplanted organ, necessitating a balance between these factors to optimize transplant outcomes. In recent years, advances in understanding the mechanisms of complement activation have led to the exploration of novel therapeutic strategies aimed at minimizing damage to the graft and enhancing its long-term functionality, emphasizing the need for tailored immunosuppressive regimens to mitigate the associated risks and improve the overall success of kidney transplantation.

Authors: Malara Danilo , Pedà Cristina
Published: January 2025

This chapter explores the growing threats faced by top predators in the Mediterranean Sea. Climate change, overfishing, and plastic pollution may affect their migration patterns and lead them to abandon established reproduction areas. For instance, tuna might not find its spawning grounds due to warmer water, sea turtles might fight against plastic debris to lay their eggs, or dolphins might be tangled by a ghost net. These disruptions threaten entire predator populations, posing at risk the entire species with the death of young specimens and the reduction of offspring. The entire marine ecosystem suffers as these top predators play a vital role in maintaining a healthy balance. By examining the impact of different threats on biological and ecological aspects of movement and reproduction, this chapter shows the vulnerabilities of these important creatures, highlighting the urgent need for conservation efforts. Only with immediate actions can we ensure their survival and a healthy Mediterranean Sea for generations to come.
