Authors: Oliveira Victor José Machado de
Published: July 2024

Um ensaio reflexivo é guiado sobre os processos de investigação com crianças em situação de vulnerabilidade social e/ou que tiveram seus direitos violados. Como inspiração teórico-metodológica nos pautamos na teoria da Salutogênese e na metáfora do rio da vida. Empiricamente, apoiamo-nos no livro “Margaridas: histórias de superação” como fonte de relatos de crianças atendidas em um projeto social em Manaus/AM. O direito à fala e à produção imagética percorrem processos não apenas investigativos, mas, de empoderamento das crianças. Destarte, propomos investigações horizontalizadas, reconhecendo as crianças como atores sociais, capazes de representar seus mundos em busca de ressignificá-los.

Authors: Pimentel Giuliano Gomes de Assis , Mello André da Silva
Published: July 2024

Proxêmica estuda a relação entre corpos e o espaço circundante. Nós a adotamos como modelo teórico-metodológico de pesquisa para observação participante em territórios de brincar arriscado. Para tanto, realizamos um estudo de campo em parques infantis. A partir do referencial mobilizado, identificamos que as crianças se auto-organizam e, de forma relacional, constroem padrões de aproximação corporal que refletem seus interesses na relação intergeracional ou entre pares. Frente a isto, encontramos na proxemia infantil uma possibilidade privilegiada de escuta e de desvelamento da participação das crianças, enfatizando como elas organizam a relação com o outro e com o território do brincar.

Published: July 2024

The article deals with potential of professional thinking of young teachers in the context of professional skill competitions as a form of continuing unofficial professional development. It gives a broader view of the role of degree professional thinking of teachers. Arguments for the fact that there are two approaches to professional activities – object-formal and subject-personal – have been presented. The latter is in positive correlation with reflexive, activity, and social components of selfperception and is a variative one, viewed from a social role perspective implemented in teaching activities. The findings can become the basis for elaborating technological tools of individual educational routs of continuing pedagogical development.

Authors: Barvitska Darya
Published: July 2024

Introduction. In accordance with the Law of Ukraine on the Constitutional Court of Ukraine, the Secretariat of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine shall provide, in particular, managerial, information and logistics support for operations of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine (hereinafter – the Court). Currently, Ukraine is developing in the era of post-industrial society, where the development of modern technologies, artificial intelligence, the provision of innovative services, etc., play an important role. Undoubtedly, such development of society requires the transformation of all spheres of life, in particular, regarding the implementation of constitutional justice.

Despite Russia’s continued full-scale aggression against Ukraine, national and European governments have been developing certain steps regarding the current and post-war development of Ukraine. One of these steps was the approval by the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe on December 14, 2022 (CM/Del/Dec (2022)1452/2.4) Council of Europe Action Plan for Ukraine «Resilience, Recovery and Reconstruction» 2023-2026 that is dated November 29, 2022. According to this plan, one of the proposed action is to support the efficient functioning of the Court and development of the constitutional justice. The objective of the proposed action is to support to the Ukrainian authorities in the reform of the Court during the war and in the post-war context in line with the recommendations of the European Commission for Democracy through Law (Venice Commission) and Council of Europe standards [4; P.10]. In our opinion, implementation of this direction is impossible without effective use of information and communication technologies during the performance of the Court’s functions.

Summary of the main research results. Improving the work of the Court’s Secretariat with the use of information and communication technologies is seen in the enhancement of communication between citizens and the Court as a condition for increasing public trust in the Court’s activities, the improvement the Court’s electronic document management, legal regulation of the implementation of the Court’s e-justice in order to comply with the principles of transparency and openness in carrying out its activities.

Conclusions. The article concludes the condition for a wider use of information and communication technologies in the activities of the Court’s Secretariat is first of all the adoption of the relevant legal regulation, development of the necessary software, training of staff on its use, provision of the Court’s Secretariat with a sufficient number of technical resources, premises and equipment for effective performance of its functions. Digitization of all spheres of public life, in particular the progressive development of e-justice, should definitely affect the legal regulation of relevant processes in the Court’s Secretariat.

AGRICULTURAL SECTOR DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE «UKRAINE FACILITY» PROGRAM
Authors: Peychev Konstantin
Published: July 2024

Introduction. The agricultural sector has significant potential in Ukraine and can stimulate economic growth. In this direction, the key factors are further integration into the European Union.

In order to implement the specified priorities at the legislative level, the program for Ukraine "Ukraine Facility" was developed. The effectiveness of regulatory regulation of the agrarian sector should be carried out based on the study of the interaction of economic, legal and social interests and has significant scientific relevance. Systematization, structuring and generalization of the main legal provisions in the direction of reforming the agro-food sector of Ukraine within the framework of the regulations of the "Ukraine Facility" program. The research is conducted for the purpose of collecting, updating, systematizing, analyzing facts, synthesizing new knowledge and generalizations that describe legal phenomena and allow to build cause-and-effect relationships between phenomena and subsequently predict their course.

Summary of the main results of the study. For the analysis, the legal norms outlined in the regulations of the program for Ukraine "Ukraine Facility" are applied, which provides for the reconstruction of the agricultural sector of our country during 2024-2027.

The legislative prescriptions of the existing legal regulation of the following sectors of the agricultural market are analyzed: institutional foundations of agricultural production and sustainable development of rural areas; ensuring the operation of the agricultural land market; administrative and institutional capacity to manage investment plans for agricultural production; prospects of the electronic register of agricultural producers; irrigation sector.

Conclusions. The concept of regulatory ordering and regulation of agrarian relations should take into account that their participants are endowed with awareness and independent will, namely, agricultural production should be regulated not only by economic factors, but mostly by environmental and social advantages. Classical science assumes that all participants in the food sector act in the most appropriate way, aiming to obtain the greatest income, researching agrarian relations and trying to predict the behavior of subjects of market relations, and the state of the sector was conducted precisely on this hypothesis. Comparison of the indicated indicators testify to the feasibility of adopting the legal norms set forth in the regulations of the program for Ukraine "Ukraine Facility", which provides for the reconstruction of the agricultural sector of our country during the years 2024-2027.

A Rehabilitation Algorithm After Lateral Ankle Sprains in Professional Football (Soccer): An Approach Based on Clinical Practice Guidelines
Authors: Flore Zacharias , Hambly Karen , De Coninck Kyra , Welsch Götz
Published: July 2024

Lateral ankle sprain (LAS) is one of the most common types of injury in professional football (soccer) players with high risk of recurrence. The rehabilitation after LAS in professional football players is often still time-based and relies on anecdotal experience of clinicans. There is still a lack of utilization of criteria-based rehabilitation concepts after LAS in professional football.

The aims of this clinical commentary are (1) to critically discuss the need for criteria-based rehabilitation concepts after LAS in professional football players, (2) to highlight the current lack of these approaches and (3) to present a novel clinical guideline-based rehabilitation algorithm.

Short time-loss (15 days) and high recurrence rate (17%) raise the question of trivialization of LAS in professional football. Despite consequences for many stakeholders involved (players, teams, clubs, insurers), there is still a lack of of criteria-based, step-by-step approaches.

The use of a criteria-based rehabilitation approach might reduce the high recurrence rate after LAS in professional football players and will lead, in turn, to increased long-term player availability. Practical experiences of he authors demonstrate the feasibility of such an approach. The effectiveness of this novel rehabilitation algorithm remains to be evaluated in future studies.

Published: July 2024

Prodrug design has emerged as a dynamic field within pharmaceutical sciences, offering a promising avenue to enhance drug efficacy while mitigating side effects. Defined by Adrien Albert, prodrugs involve modifying parent medications to create inactive precursors that the body converts into active therapeutic agents. Prodrug design aims to optimize medicinal, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacodynamic goals, ultimately improving the therapeutic index and reducing toxicity. Over the past decade, significant strides have been made in prodrug design, particularly in methods enhancing oral bioavailability and targeted delivery to the brain and tumors. Prodrugs offer advantages such as improved pharmacokinetics, targeted drug delivery, reduced toxicity, enhanced stability, and simplified patient compliance. However, challenges such as complex design processes, unpredictable metabolism, and potential side effects must be navigated. Applications of prodrugs span various areas, including oral absorption enhancement, aqueous solubility improvement, lipophilicity alteration, carrier-mediated absorption, and reduction of pain on injection. Prodrugs also show promise in site-selective drug delivery, prolonged drug action, and toxicity reduction. Ongoing research is vital, especially in the early drug development stages, to harness the full potential of prodrug strategies. While prodrugs have become integral to drug design, realistic goals and a continued focus on addressing challenges will contribute to their successful clinical application.
Security-ANODR for provisioning of neighbour security in MANETs
Authors: Uppe Nanaji , Mohan Rao C. P. V. N. J.
Published: July 2024

MANETs are a type of wireless ad hoc network characterized by a wireless medium. The MANET's inherent characteristics, like dynamic change in topology and lack of central administration, reduce the possibility of provisioning security. Most of the studies have concentrated more on providing security than the computational cost of energy utilization. Neighbor security is proposed in this paper in addition to the existing de facto ANODR protocol for provisioning security in ANODR. The design and implementation of FB-NTT-S-ANODR to minimize energy consumption, thereby enhancing the network lifetime, are suggested. A soft computing technique for optimizing the performance of FB-NTT-S-ANODR is attempted. From experimental results, the proposed FB-NTT-S-ANODR minimizes the total energy consumption by 93.07%. Hence, the proposed method is more suitable for provisioning security and enhancing the network lifetime.

Authors: Stedman Luke , Williman Jonathan , Burnside Mercedes , Davies Hannah , Jefferies Craig , Marsters Brooke , Paul Ryan , Wheeler Benjamin , Wiltshire Esko , de Bock Martin
Published: July 2024

aim: We investigated if continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) within 12 months of being diagnosed modifies the development of glycaemic outcome inequity on the basis of either ethnicity or socio-economic status (SES). method: De-identified clinical and SES data from the KIWIDIAB data network were collected 12 months after diagnosis in children under 15 years diagnosed with T1D between 1 October 2020 and 1 October 2021. results: There were 206 children with new onset T1D: CGM use was 56.7% for Māori and 77.2% for Europeans. Mean (SD) HbA1c was 62.4 (14.2) mmol/mol at 12 months post diagnosis, but Māori were 9.4mmol/mol higher compared to Europeans (p<0.001). For those without CGM, Māori had an HbA1c 10.8 (95% CI 2.3 to 19.4, p=0.013) mmol/mol higher than Europeans, whereas there was no evidence of a difference between Māori and Europeans using CGM (62.1 [9.3] mmol/mol vs 58.5 [12.4] mmol/mol p=0.53 respectively). Comparing quintiles of SES, HbA1c was 10.8 (95% CI 4.7 to 16.9, p<0.001) mmol/mol higher in the lowest quintile of SES compared to the highest. conclusion: These observational data suggest CGM use ameliorates the ethnic disparity in HbA1c at 12 months in new onset T1D.

Authors: Hickling Nicola , McCann Clare , Tippett Lynette , Cheung Gary
Published: July 2024

aim: To examine the approaches that are being used in New Zealand when conducting decision-making capacity (DMC) assessments among the healthcare professionals that commonly conduct DMC assessments and those that are involved in, but do not conduct, the assessments. method: An online quantitative survey was conducted, lasting 10 minutes, including a mix of closed- and open-ended questions. The survey garnered responses from a total of n=78 participants. results: Bedside cognitive tests were found to the be most commonly reported tool used to assess DMC among those conducting and those contributing to DMC assessments. Nearly a third (31.9%) of participants conducting DMC assessments used a structured clinical interview as one of their most common approaches while 27.5% of this same group reported not being aware of this approach. It was reported by both those conducting and those contributing to DMC assessments that the current standards lack quality and consistency, with partial capacity being poorly understood and identified, and supported decision making often being overlooked for substitute decision making. conclusions: Current approaches to DMC assessment lack standardisation and consistency with assessment approaches being widely varied. This article serves as a call for the development of and adherence to nationally recognised standards for DMC assessments.
Dying well in Aotearoa New Zealand for ethnic minority communities: a time for reclamation?
Authors: Shah Shamsul , Ameratunga Shanthi , Peiris-John Roshini , Ramalho Rodrigo , Moeke-Maxwell Tess , Wolffram Paul
Published: July 2024

Despite technological advances and a disproportionate increase in health expenditure at the end-of-life, most New Zealanders die in hospital or in aged residential care. This counters the aspirations espoused by Te Whatu Ora (Health New Zealand) for all New Zealanders “to live well, age well and die well in their homes and communities.” Furthermore, despite reported inequities in end-of-life care experienced by ethnic minority communities (EMCs) overseas, and increasing proportions of people identifying with Asian, Middle Eastern, Latin American and African ethnicities in Aotearoa New Zealand, local data, research and policies addressing healthcare needs of EMCs at end-of-life are scant. Acknowledging this invisibility, we reflect on and discuss the current discourses on death and dying, the complex experiences at end-of-life for EMCs, including concepts of a “good death”, the impact of recent existential crises (e.g., COVID-19 pandemic, climate change) on death awareness, and the global rise to reclaim dying as an important part of living. We argue for the need: a) to partner with ethnic communities to co-design culturally safe end-of-life health services, and b) to adopt a “compassionate communities” public health approach that can support people of EMCs at the end-of-life to die well.

Published: July 2024

This study introduce Aboodh Adomian polynomial Method (AAPM) to solve nonlinear third order KdV problems providing it approximate and exact solution. To get the approximate analytical answers to the issues, the Aboodh transform approach was used. Given that the Aboodh transform cannot handle the nonlinear elements in the equation, the Adomian polynomial was thought to be a crucial tool for linearizing the associated nonlinearities. All of the issues examined demonstrated the strength and effectiveness of the Adomian polynomial and Aboodh transforms in solving various nonlinear equations when compared to other well-known methods. To show how this strategy may be applied and is beneficial, three cases were examined.

O CÍRCULO ÉTICO: UMA RESENHA A ALASDAIR MACINTYRE
Authors: Barzotto Luis Fernando
Published: July 2024

A presente resenha tem como objeto as cinco obras de Alasdair MacIntyre publicadas em português.         São elas: Depois da virtude; Justiça de quem? Qual racionalidade?; Três versões rivais da investigação moral – Enciclopédia, Genealogia e Tradição; Deus, a filosofia e as universidades – uma história seletiva da tradição filosófica católica; e Ética nos conflitos morais da modernidade – um ensaio sobre desejo, razão prática e narrativa.         O objetivo é demonstrar a centralidade, para a análise macintyriana da moral e da filosofia moral, de uma tese aristotélica que será chamada aqui de “círculo ético”.         O círculo ético consiste na precedência da vida moral sobre a reflexão moral, e no “retorno” desta última sobre a primeira, para aperfeiçoá-la.         Utilizou-se a metáfora do círculo, para designar o movimento que vai da práxis à teoria e que retorna desta para a práxis, pelo fato desta metáfora já ser amplamente utilizada na filosofia contemporânea com o “círculo hermenêutico.”
Dog-Led Urbanism: An Investigation To Improve The Dog-Friendly Public Landscape In Wellington City Central.
Authors:   , Chen Yutong
Published: July 2024

As one of the earliest animals raised by humans, dogs were domesticated and raised in the Neolithic Age 10,000 years ago. The main purposes of keeping dogs at that time were hunting, housekeeping and playing. With the development of society, more and more people are raising dogs. As pets, dogs have become the second most important biological group on the planet after humans. The isolation life caused by the epidemic has also created a need for many people living alone, especially the elderly, to keep dogs. People began to place their emotions on their dogs and treat dogs as family members. Dogs' social and behavioral needs should be met outside the private spaces of the home, i.e., urban public spaces. In today's urban public spaces, designers strive to meet people's needs and preferences to encourage people to get out. However, the needs of dogs as users of public spaces can easily be overlooked. Due to the limitations of travel methods for dog-owning residents living in the city center, when taking their dogs out, the public spaces available in large cities are often limited.There are now more than 600,000 registered pet dogs in New Zealand, and on average one in every three or four households has a dog. New Zealand still has huge potential as the second most pet-friendly country. Pet-friendly shops are everywhere in the capital, Wellington, but the lack of dog-friendly public spaces in urban areas is also evident. Wellington's dog-owning residents are clamoring for the city's existing public spaces. On the other hand, as one of the main groups of people who keep dogs in the city, the needs of the elderly living alone to take their dogs out also deserve the attention of designers.To address these challenges, landscape architecture has the potential to improve dogfriendly public spaces in cities. When land use in cities is relatively saturated, building roofs can serve as potential sites for landscape design. This study explores how landscape architecture can create interactive, interesting, multifunctional public spaces for people and dogs in cities. The case study site was selected as Wellington city centre, focusing on the busy area of Wellington city centre. During the research, it was discovered that the number of open spaces at ground level in Wellington city center was limited and crowded, so rooftops were explored as a site option for part of the design.

Published: July 2024

Decreased intestinal peristalsis due to anesthesia before laparotomy surgery can result in inhibition of nerve impulses to the intestinal muscles, paralytic ileus can occur and inhibition of the work of the intestine itself. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of chewing gum and early mobilization on intestinal peristalsis after laparotomy surgery. The research design used a quasi-experimental. The sampling technique used purposive sampling with 32 respondents divided into 2 groups. The treatment group was given an intervention of chewing gum and early mobilization, while the control group was given an intervention according to standard operating hospital procedures, namely tilting right and left and given 2 spoons of drinking after the patient was fully conscious in the room. The independent variables were chewing gum and early mobilization. The dependent variable was intestinal peristaltic. This study used univariate analysis to determine the characteristics of respondents. The bivariate analysis used paired t test and independent t test. The paired t test in the pre-posttest in the control group was 0.000, while the pre-posttest in the treatment group was 0.000. Independent T test on the post-test of the treatment group with the post-test of the control group of 0.000. There was an effect of chewing gum and early mobilization intervention on intestinal peristalsis in post laparotomy patients. Chewing gum and early mobilization can stimulate hormones in the gastrointestinal system such as gastrin, secretin, gastric inhibitory polypeptide, cholecystokinin, motilin, and enteroglukagon which will increase intestinal peristalsis

Published: July 2024

Many people with COPD develop emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Both conditions cause obstruction of airflow in the respiratory system and cause an increase in the frequency of external respiration. One of the non-pharmacological management is tripod position and pursed lip breathing. This study aimed to determine the effect of giving a tripod position and pursed lip breathing on respiration rate in COPD patients. The design of this study used a one group pretest-post test design. The population in this study were all COPD patients at Bangil Hospital, Pasuruan in June 2021. The sampling technique of this study was consecutive sampling, the sample was obtained by 25 respondents. The instrument used observation and SOP. The results showed that the average respiration rate before giving the combination of tripod position and pursed lip breathing was 28.8x/minute, and the average value of respiration rate after giving the tripod position and pursed lip breathing was 23.2x/minute. Wilcoxon test results value = 0.000 on respiration rate before and after the combination of tripod position and pursed lip breathing, which means that tripod position and pursed lip breathing are proven to be effective on respiration rate in COPD patients. Tripod position and pursed lip breathing will loosen the chest cavity, provide positive pressure on the lungs so that air can go in and out more smoothly and reduce shortness of breath

Enhancing science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education requires a comprehensive understanding of the practical challenges encountered by teachers during implementation. This research study aimed to uncover valuable insights into the integration of STEM education in Vietnam as perceived by primary school teachers. Employing a mixed method approach, the study engaged 454 teachers and administrators from primary schools across the northern, central, and southern regions of Vietnam. Data were collected through interviews and an online survey, focusing on the challenges and needs of teachers in organizing STEM educational activities. Findings reveal that elementary school teachers in STEM education face challenges such as professional competency, program methodologies, resource availability, time and space constraints, and the need for a comprehensive STEM ecosystem. The primary school teachers expressed a strong desire for professional development support, encompassing: (a) increased opportunities for experiential learning, collaboration, and knowledge-sharing among colleagues, supplemented by expert-led training sessions on STEM skills implementation; (b) a preference for practical training courses, sharing of real-world experiences, and a need for continuous and regular professional development activities, as opposed to sporadic training sessions; (c) provision of financial support and conducive conditions to facilitate ongoing professional growth; and (d) assistance in leveraging technology for effective STEM education. These research findings serve as a vital foundation for educational managers and teacher training institutions to formulate policies and implement support mechanisms that are essential for the success of STEM education.

As a cornerstone of societal progress, integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) into educational methodologies with robust stakeholder engagement represents a pivotal stride towards optimizing the efficacy and relevance of education in an era characterized by rapid development. The disruptive impact of events such as the COVID-19 pandemic has underscored the urgent need for innovative solutions to educational challenges, particularly in Nigeria, where academic activities halted amid the crisis. In response, this study explores the potential of the "Open Campus Model" (OCM), a transformative educational governance framework supported by AI. The research, conducted through a comprehensive literature review and a workshop at Alex Ekwueme Federal University Ndufu-Alike, Nigeria, identified key themes: Educational Practices Enhancement, Educational Innovation with AI, Governance and Participation, Collaborative Learning and Inclusivity, and Access and Equity. An unstructured questionnaire with ten questions facilitated in-depth interviews with 63 participants, including university lecturers, administrators and educational stakeholders from South East Nigeria. Data from the interviews underwent thematic analysis, revealing that OCM, supported by AI, enhances educational practices, fosters collaborative learning, and promotes inclusivity and equity. The study concludes that implementing OCM can address current educational challenges in Nigeria, recommending further research to refine and expand the model's application.

The cultivation of critical thinking (CT) skills is a fundamental aim within the realm of higher education. It assumes particular significance within the domain of Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL). This study directs its focus on the Chinese tertiary TEFL context and endeavours to explicate what the external factors are, as well as endogenous elements and ways to foster students’ critical thinking. Methodologically, the study adopted grounded theory (GT) and drew upon qualitative data gathered through interviews with 36 participants, including both students and instructors recruited from prestigious universities, mid-tier colleges, and less developed college across China. The data analysis, utilizing NVivo12 software, encompasses a multilevel coding process, including open, axial, and selective coding, in accordance with the principles of GT. The outcome of this meticulous analysis results in the formulation of a comprehensive model revealing the interplay among external influences, endogenous elements, and ways to foster the development of CT skills among tertiary English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students. The implications of these findings extend pedagogically to multiple stakeholders within the tertiary TEFL context.

Almost everything a person does involves mathematics, especially in this day and age of science and technology. Therefore, it is essential to ensure success among students regarding achievement in mathematics learning. This study explored how psychosocial variables (self-efficacy, motivation, locus of control, anxiety, and peer influence) contribute to student achievement in Mathematics. Two hundred and forty secondary school students participated in this study. The study employed the correlational design, and data was collected using reliable instruments: (mathematics anxiety scale ? = 0.82; academic self-efficacy scale ? = 0.79; academic motivation scale ? = 0.81; locus of control scale ? =0.84; peer influence inventory ?=.76; and achievement test in mathematics ? =0.88). The model displayed a goodness-of-fit index of 1.000 and a comparative fit index of 1.000, both of which are regarded as perfect fits, according to path analysis. In this model, every path has high significance (p < .01) except for the path coming from motivation to self-efficacy and locus of control (p = .053 and .493), respectively. The study recommended that efforts be made to increase mathematics achievement, emphasising how the many elements considered interact with one another.
