Authors:   Korean Association of Expressive Arts Psychological Counseling, Kim Su Hee , Ok Sang Eun , Lee Na Hyun
Published: December 2024

This study is a study to investigate the necessity of joint education between kindergarten and elementary school and the perception of pre-service teachers on the curriculum, and a total of 90 pre-service early childhood teachers and 45 pre-primary elementary school teachers were surveyed. As a statistical method, the percentage(%), which is a descriptive statistic, was calculated and used in the study to find out general characteristics from the collected data. The research results are as follows. First, it was found that both kindergarten and elementary school pre-service teachers perceived the need for joint education highly. Second, although there are partial differences in the factors of interference between kindergarten and elementary school, it was found that both pre-service teachers perceived the same factor as an interference factor. Third, it was found that both kindergarten and elementary school pre-service teachers lacked understanding of the curriculum. The purpose of this study is to provide basic data suggesting ways to revitalize kindergarten-linked education in the College of Education in the future.

The purpose of this study is to validate the Korean version of the emotional style scale developed by Kesebir et al. (2019). The Korean version of the K-ESQ was proposed through translation and
back-translation of the original ESQ scale (Kesebir et al., 2019), and a five-factor structure consisting of outlook/resilience, self-awareness, social intuition, sensitivity to context, and attention was extracted through factor analysis. In addition, the results of the criterion validity test showed significant correlations with the resilience scale (r=.78, p<.001), the Korean version of the mindfulness awareness scale (r=.65, p<.001), the attention control scale (r=.45, p<.001), and the depression, anxiety, and stress scale (r=-.53, p<.001). It can be useful when understanding the construct of emotional style and taking a personal emotional approach through emotional style. Future research will need to specifically identify the cultural characteristics of the items.

Introdução: A síndrome de Turner (ST) é uma condição genética rara causada pela ausência parcial ou total do cromossomo X, afetando 1 em cada 2.000 nascimentos femininos. Caracteriza-se por baixa estatura, disgenesia gonadal e maior risco de doenças cardiovasculares e autoimunes. Objetivo: Analisar as abordagens terapêuticas disponíveis e ressaltar a importância de um acompanhamento contínuo para minimizar complicações a longo prazo. Metodologia: Esta pesquisa é uma revisão narrativa da literatura, utilizando a estratégia PICO. A busca foi realizada em bases como PubMed, SciELO e LILACS, selecionando estudos relevantes publicados sem recortes temporais. Resultados e Discussão: O tratamento envolve o uso de hormônios para induzir a puberdade e monitorar a função ovariana. Em casos de insuficiência ovariana, a criopreservação de oócitos e a fertilização in vitro com doação de gametas são opções viáveis. O diagnóstico precoce permite intervenções mais eficazes e acompanhamento das complicações associadas. Conclusão: A abordagem terapêutica deve ser individualizada e focada no diagnóstico precoce e acompanhamento contínuo para melhorar a qualidade de vida e prevenir complicações a longo prazo.

Leiomiomas estão entre os tumores benignos mais comuns em mulheres na idade reprodutiva, sendo frequentemente restrito apenas à parede uterina. Entretanto, existe um espectro clínico desta patologia denominada leiomioma benigno metastático, de fisiopatologia ainda incerta, em que há envolvimento de outros órgãos e tecidos, mais notadamente o pulmão. Trata-se de um achado raro e frequentemente incidental, o qual necessita de investigação complementar por meio de diversos testes diagnósticos. Nesse trabalho, discutimos o caso de um paciente acompanhado em um serviço terciário, apontando elementos necessários na investigação etiológica e no manejo necessário, dando ênfase às abordagens cirúrgicas e farmacológicas.
CURRÍCULO E FORMAÇÃO DOCENTE PARA A INCLUSÃO DE ESTUDANTES AUTISTAS: CONCEPÇÕES, POLÍTICAS EDUCACIONAIS E DESAFIOS
Authors: Pires Adriana Gomes , Ross Silvia de
Published: December 2024

The essay aims to historicize and critically examine the relationship between curriculum and teacher education for the inclusion of autistic students in Brazil, exploring how curricula relate to social dynamics, power relations, and cultural transformations. In dialogue with authors such as Giroux (1986), Goodson (1995; 1997), Hargreaves and Fullan (2012), Lahire (2006), Sacristán (2000), Shulman (1986; 2005), and Zeichner (1993), the curriculum is as a historical and cultural artifact, in constant construction and reconstruction. The text also addresses educational policies for including autistic individuals in Brazil, noting that advancements in the regulatory framework have sought to secure a range of rights for the autistic community, particularly concerning school inclusion. In this context, it is essential for future educators to work effectively with a broad diversity of students and to adopt pedagogical practices that promote equity and inclusion. This requires a profound understanding of the social, cultural, political, and economic issues affecting education, as well as skills to create learning environments that meet the needs of all students. However, teacher education and undergraduate curricula have proven to be a significant challenge for consolidating inclusive pedagogical practices, as many still lack specific courses that address foundational principles, methods, and techniques thoroughly and critically, connecting theory and practice to foster teaching-learning relationships aimed at the inclusion of autistic individuals in schools.
Effectiveness and Safety of Suvorexant in Preventing Delirium: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Authors: Yin Lu , Lv Guangyou , Han Ruijun , Zhang Yong , Du Xia , Song Yanying , Zhang Jie
Published: December 2024

Introduction: Delirium is a common and severe complication in hospitalized patients, particularly among the elderly and those in intensive care units or post-surgery. Suvorexant, a dual orexin receptor antagonist, has been proposed as a potential preventive treatment for delirium, but its safety and effectiveness have not been comprehensively analyzed. Methods: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) assessing Suvorexant for adult delirium prevention, identified through four database searches. The primary outcome was the incidence of delirium, and the secondary outcome was the incidence of adverse events. A random-effects model was used for data synthesis. Results: Three studies, all conducted in Japan, involved 307 patients and were included in the analysis. The pooled results demonstrated that Suvorexant significantly reduced the incidence of delirium, with an odds ratio (OR) of 0.43 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.21–0.87, p = 0.02; I2 = 16%]. A seven-day administration of Suvorexant showed a statistically significant protective effect (OR 0.50, 95% CI 0.28–0.90, p = 0.02; I2 = 0%), whereas three-day administration did not reach statistical significance (OR 0.56, 95% CI 0.24–1.27, p = 0.16; I2 = 19%). Additionally, there was no significant increase in adverse events (OR 0.91, 95%CI 0.50–1.64, p = 0.75; I2 = 0%). Conclusion: Suvorexant is an effective and safe option for preventing delirium, particularly with seven-day administration periods. However, further research is required to determine the optimal dosing and duration for maximum effectiveness.
THE CRITICAL ROLE OF SOFT SKILLS IN KAZAKHSTAN'S JOB MARKET FOR IT GRADUATES: JOB MARKET ANALYSIS
Authors: Bekbolat M , Berkimbayev K , Sagimbayeva A
Published: December 2024

This study examines the alignment between academic offerings and market demands in Kazakhstan's Information Technology (IT) sector. The main objective is to identify existing gaps and to propose possible solutions to the issues in this field. The authors listed IT-related academic programs from universities throughout Kazakhstan and job vacancies from 3 leading job portals: enbek.kz, hh.kz, and careerjet.kz, from September 2023 to January 2024. The predominant soft skills in this filed were determined by (1) job categorization using K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), and (2) the application of Natural Language Processing (NLP) on job descriptions to find key skills required to these jobs. The present findings define the most significant soft skills corresponding to different IT clusters from analyzing the 450 job vacancies. Now, these findings might have huge implications for everyone involved in IT for education and job market for Kazakhstan. Additionally, the results of this study imply for enhancing existing curriculum for IT programs in Kazakhstan, and demonstrates the importance of a soft skills training for complementary IT studies. Thus, the findings of the study can shed a light on the discussion about IT education in Kazakhstan by determining the areas where the higher education system should tune up relevant skills to increase the employability of the graduates. Suggestions for future research are made to fill those gaps, and recommendations for universities, and industry partners.
