Authors: Pedrosa Emerson Marinho , Schwingel Paulo Adriano
Published: October 2022

With the implementation of its first Hospital Class in 2015, the state of Pernambuco took the first step towards the inclusion of children and adolescents towards ensuring schooling for students in a state of illness and hospitalized for health treatment. The thesis brought a qualitative research, of the case study type, associated with a theoretical-scientific survey in the hospital context, having carried out an analysis with the objectives of seeking to understand Hospital Pedagogy as a distinguished proposal in the construction of knowledge, through contexts of learning for teacher training, the inclusion and schooling of the student/patient inserted in the special education section of the Municipal Teaching Network of Recife. With the purpose of accessing this environment through science teaching, we learned to learn with Semear by examining the collected material, using discursive textual analysis as an aid to understand the phenomena investigated in the Class. Backed by theoretical references, the work clarifies the development of this teaching modality in the Pernambuco State, the legal bases that guides it in Brazil, its discussion on special and inclusive education, and the character of specialized teacher training that should comprise this space of health and schooling as a space for interdisciplinary humanized care, bringing results where the role of science education is promising for the understanding of the world of students and their daily relationships, woven by behavioral attitudes towards the facts of life, made possible by the humanization characteristic of the Class, which enables the generation of meaningful learning for students/patients. In conclusion, the relevance of educational inclusion for children who need care should permeate education and health, a binomial of inclusion in the Hospital Class throughout the State of Pernambuco.

Published: October 2022

This article presents an analysis of the narratives by students at the Federal University of Piauí/Campus Senador Helvídio Nunes de Barros belonging to the LGBTQ+ community, pointing out the tensions and upheavals suffered by because of their sexual orientation. The research followed the qualitative approach and the interpretative analysis of the students' narratives allowed us to identify the possible tensions and upheavals they feel at university. The UFPI/CSHNB emerges as a plural and diverse space, where the student feels free to be himself and to be in the world. A space of encounters and comfort, of overcoming and absence of judgment of sexual orientation. We did not find in the students' narratives tensions or upheavals in their initial training that had a negative impact. But on the other hand, we found tensions related to self-knowledge and family acceptance, as well as upheavals related to their insertion in the labor market. The text presents subsidies for further discussion and analysis of the context of the formation of individuals belonging to the LGBTQ+ community.

Published: October 2022

Nonoperative tratment (NOT) of blunt liver injury is a widespread practice that has a high sucess rate (82- 100%). Because of this, NOT has been used in cases of penetrating liver injury. However, despite the positive outcomes, the indication of NOT in these cases is controversial. Due to high incidence of associated thoracoabdominal injuries, this treatment modality requires a careful selection of the patient. This report presents a case of a victim of a firearm injury whose projectile was lodged in segment II of the liver, and this injury was managed with NOT, without any liver complications. However, due to its thoracic path to the abdominal cavity, it was necessary to approach the pleural empyema condition, with good evolution, without other associated complications.

Published: October 2022

With increasing demand for chemicals, the environment is increasingly exposed to toxic substances. To assess these exposures, ecotoxicological studies appear as an important tool. Tests for evaluations can be divided into in vivo, in vitro and in silico. The in vivo one differs from the others, as it uses living organisms in experimentation. The use of living organisms in research is an issue that has been discussed for a long time. There is a consensus among researchers on the importance of applying the 3Rs principles (reduction, substitution and refinement). Knowing this, the objective of the review is to evaluate the literature regarding the use of in vivo studies, emphasizing the relationship between model and non-model organisms for ecotoxicological studies, within the context of alternative tools such as in vitro and in silico assays. The review highlighted the increase in ecotoxicological studies in recent years and the importance of these studies for the assessment of environmental impacts. Daphnia magna is the most used invertebrate model organism in studies, while Danio rerio represents the most used vertebrate organism. The in vitro and in silico tests showed a large number of works carried out, which shows the importance of these tools, especially considering the application of the 3Rs. However, the work brought the importance of understanding which organism is being used in the study and how they vary within the different approaches.

Published: October 2022

Mucoepidermoid carcinoma is the most common malignant salivary gland tumor in the oral cavity and affects mainly the parotid gland. Regarding its epidemiology, the incidence of MSC is higher in females and the mean age of patients is 45 years with a peak between the 4th and 6th decades of life. The clinical behavior of MSC is highly variable, ranging from indolent tumor growth to highly aggressive metastatic spread. However, the prognosis will depend considerably on the clinical stage of the lesion, its anatomical location, the histopathological grade and the treatment adopted. Given this, the objective of this study was to discuss the importance of the role of the dentist in the early diagnosis of mucoepidermoid carcinoma in the parotid gland and the result in the prognosis. As for the methodology used, it consists of a narrative literature review, through a search in Google Academic, Scielo, BVS, PUBMED. The diagnostic method is done through palpation, but as there are several differential diagnoses, it is essential that an incisional biopsy is performed for histopathological analysis. It was found that the participation of dentists brought several benefits related to the prognosis of patients with mucoepidermoid carcinoma, due to the possibility of metastasis or the simple fact that it is a malignant tumor and compromises the parotid gland, the dentist's role in diagnosing clinical signs early is essential for a favorable prognosis.

Published: October 2022

The present research aims to study the analysis of the presence of the cocoa crop in the municipality of Gandu, in Bahia's Southern Lowlands, and its interaction with the permanence and use of the dense ombrophile forest, which dominates the Atlantic Forest biome. As a methodology, theoretical and empirical surveys were carried out on phytophysiognomic diversity, land use and some species of the Atlantic Forest biome, in addition to cocoa cultivation, according to the conceptions of several authors from different areas of science. Interviews and questionnaires were carried out on the relationship between cocoa production and the forest, field visits to cocoa farms, photographs of the forest, of cocoa cultivation in the municipality and also the identification of species with higher incidence in the landscape, collection of information in a letter topographic and thematic maps of the environment and use of satellite images provided by Google. The results obtained show that most interviewees say that there has been degradation in the vegetation cover of the biome in the last decades, the vast majority of the surveyed public affirms the influence of the witches' broom pest with environmental degradation, they also claim to have worked in cocoa plantations and having contact with genetically modified seedlings, the overwhelming majority claim that the preservation of the forest is associated with the cultivation of cocoa, and that without it, the devastation of the forest was greater for the implantation of other crops such as livestock, bananas and subsistence crops during the broom season -of-witch. The fieldwork, together with the satellite images, show that the forest is quite altered, consisting of several stages of ecological succession, called capoira, capoira and capoeirão and more or less preserved fragments of the native ombrophilous forest in mountainous areas. Exotic shading (cacao-cabruca) is still widely used and considered a sustainable practice. It is concluded that the relationship between cocoa culture and dense rainforest is a common practice and has increased after the partial elimination of witches' broom and genetically modified cocoa seedlings.
A Comparative Analysis of the Use of ‘Thereof’ in an English Non-translated Text and the English Machine- and Human-translated Versions of the Hungarian Criminal Code
Authors: Tímea Kovács
Published: October 2022

Owing to the recent rise of neural language translation, a paradigm shift has been witnessed regarding the role of translators and reviewers. As neural machine translation is increasingly more capable of modelling how natural languages work, the traditional tasks of translators are being gradually replaced by new challenges. More emphasis is placed on pre- and post-editing (revision) skills and competences, presumably enabling the production of higher quality and near human-made translations.

In my paper, I attempt to demonstrate through the qualitative and quantitative comparison of machine-translated legal texts (acts) to human-translated ones the relevant challenges and dynamic contrasts arising in the process of translating. Through the qualitative and quantitative analysis of the original Hungarian (source language) Criminal Code and its English (target language) machine and human translations, I aim to highlight the peculiar challenges emerging in the process of translation. I also aim to demonstrate what patterns can be observed in translations produced by human and non-human translators.

Published: October 2022

Five selected species of genus Bambusa considered for comparative anatomical characterization, were collected from the different areas of Punjab, Pakistan. The magnitude of variation was immensely high in Bambusa spp. relating to their root, culm, and leaf anatomical characters. These species were specific as well as representative of specific environmental adaptations. In different environmental stresses, Bambusa vulgaris found to be the most tolerant. Distinctive anatomical adaptations in this species were dense sclerification in root and stem (on inner side of epidermis and in vascular region), stem and adaxial leaf surface with thick epidermis, dense hairy stem and abaxial leaf surface, and bulliform cells with a peculiar arrangement in adaxial leaf surface. Overall, a strong relation of understudy features with plant anatomy was recorded, and therefore, these traits can be employed as a tool for studying the taxonomy of genus Bambusa. Moreover, by using these structural modifications their tolerance level to environmental stresses can be easily assessed.

Published: October 2022

High temperature is an important global issue that impedes agricultural production, especially of soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) crop. Numerous studies were undertaken to estimate the effect of temperature on soybean seed germination under low temperatures. However, the effects of high-temperatures on seed germination and early seedling establishment of various soybean cultivars need to be explored further. Therefore, the current study was performed in growth chambers to evaluate genetic variations among different soybean cultivars for germination and early growth under varying temperatures. Five temperatures, i.e., 15, 20, 25, 30, and 35 ◦C, and four soybean cultivars (PI408105A, PI567731, PI567690, and PI416937) were used. The results showed that soybean cultivars revealed substantial variations in germination percentage (GP), germination rate index (GRI), germination energy (GE), seed vigor index (SVI), and seedling length under different temperatures mentioned above. The results indicated that higher temperature [35 °C] inhibited seed germination. Conversely, the intermediate temperatures [20, 25, and 30 ◦C] depicted good germination. Lower temperature declined the seed germination to some extent, and the germination percentage of PI408105A, PI567731, PI567690, and PI416937 were observed as 63.33%, 56.67%, 50%, and 40.11%, respectively. For all the soybean cultivars, the mean seed germination rate was maximum at 25 ◦C. However, the germination rate index continued to increase until 30 ◦C . The soybean cultivar PI408105A was the most promising under high temperature, exhibiting higher GP by 86.67%, highest SVI by 50.95%, and GRI by 50% at 30 ◦C. In contrast, PI416937 was among the cultivars sensitive to high temperature and showed a higher germination rate only at 20 ◦C. The seeds of PI408105A, PI567731, and PI567690 can germinate well under intermediate temperature conditions, making them a promising species for use in hot climatic zones. According to the current findings, it was concluded that soybean should be planted under mild temperatures for good crop stand and production. Moreover, it is recommended that cultivars such as PI408105A could be grown in warm conditions.

Published: October 2022

The prevalence of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents has been increasing worldwide. In the Philippines, the prevalence of adolescent overweight/obesity showed an increasing trend – from 4.9% in 2003 to 9.2% in 2015 and 11.6% in 2018. Obesity increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, some cancers, and other non-communicable diseases. This study aimed to identify major potential determinants of overweight/obesity among Filipino adolescents from the Food and Nutrition Research Institute’s Expanded National Nutrition Survey (ENNS). Univariate and multivariate analyses of the 2018 ENNS were done and included socio- demographic, socio-economic, clinical, and dietary data as potential determinants of adolescent overweight/obesity. Findings revealed that 12.0% of Filipino adolescents were overweight/obese. The odds of being overweight/obese was 75% (OR: 1.75; CI = 1.42–2.15; p < 0.001) higher with energy intake above requirements and 45% (OR: 1.45; CI = 1.25–1.67; p < 0.001) higher with protein intake above requirement. The risk of becoming overweight/obese in adolescents was higher among 10–12 yr old (OR: 1.61; CI = 1.23–2.10; p = 0.002), from households with less than five members (OR: 1.60; CI = 1.27–2.02; p = 0.001), living in urban areas (OR: 1.30; CI = 1.13–1.51; p = 0.001), from the richest wealth quintile (OR: 3.49; CI = 2.40–5.06; p < 0.001), whose households were food secure (OR 1.46; CI = 1.20–1.79; p = 0.001), and those household heads with at least college level of education (OR 1.56; CI = 1.15–2.13; p = 0.008), and who were physically inactive (OR: 1.41; CI = 1.08–1.84; p = 0.016). The dramatic rise in the prevalence trend of overweight/obesity among Filipino adolescents calls for integrated efforts of both the public and private sectors to focus on policies that would influence the promotion and support of overweight/obesity prevention. These findings may also serve as basis and inputs in modifying eating behaviors and the importance of increasing physical activity targeting the richest quintile in urban areas to help curb the overweight/obesity among adolescents.

The purpose of this review article is to assess systematically the available scientific evidence about difference in microbiota of apical periodontitis in root canals during time and its antibiotic susceptibility.
The study of publications was produced in the electronic databases such as Google Scholar, PubMed during a systematic review of the literature. Included articles contain information about microorganisms in the root canal system of different forms of apical periodontitis. The publication date criterion was selected from January 2000 to December 2012.
Overall 52 articles were reviewed. After analyzing the literature for inclusion criteria, the total number of publications has become 10.
According to literature data, bacteria located in the apical root canal system potentially participate in the pathogenesis of acute and chronic, primary and secondary apical periodontitis. Anaerobic bacteria are dominated with similar proportion of gram-negative and gram-positive microorganisms. During twelve years there were some changes in microbiota’s community. The most common ones in early 2000 were Streptococcus spp. and Fusobacterium nucleatum. Then in 2008 the leading positions were taken by Olsenella uli, Eikenella corrodens and Porphyromonas endodontalis. Beta-lactams, macrolides, metronidazole are the choices for antibiotic therapy of apical periodontitis, depending on its microbial biocenosis. All authors contributed equally to the writing of the article.

Published: October 2022

The prevalence of depressive symptoms is a recognized mental health issue among students enrolled in university. It is because they pass through an age of transition by shifting from adolescence to adulthood, and resultantly they adopt new roles, responsibilities, and tasks. Such roles are sometimes perceived as stressful, therefore leading to the development of depressive symptoms. This study has examined the prevalence of depressive symptoms among the students (female)enrolled in the newly established university of Pakistan by determining the socio-demographic and related risk factors of major depression. In this regard, a cross-sectional (case study) design was espoused and data were collected from 105 female students via through a self-reported questionnaire. Data were analyzed by descriptive as well as inferential statistics. The results showed that the prevalence of symptoms of depression and its allied risk factors changed according to the socio-economic and demographic profiles of the students. The prevalence of depressive symptoms was higher among students, who were between the ages of 18 to 20 years, single students, enrolled in undergraduate programs, and those in the first semester. On the other side, the related risk factors of depressive symptoms include marital status, socioeconomic status of students, and less weight BMI >18kg/m2). It is therefore concluded that depression is a recognized mental health issue in academia. Since depressive symptoms interfere with the routine activities of the students and may affect their academic performance, therefore, it is suggested that the students may be properly educated about their mental health. The administration of the university should also provide a conducive and favorable environment to its students, in this way the students can be prevented the detrimental effects of depression.

Structure of international system is substantially anarchic, and in this anarchic system power is the currency of international politics dwarfing overwhelmingly all the other pillars. The structure of international system bludgeons states to forge the alliances to balance the power of adversary. In system of international politics Central Asian nations are truly searching their niche. A landlocked region amid two regional powers China and Russia. US interests are basically strategic oriented. All other interests are of secondary mould. In regional geographical context the interests of US are overlapping with China and Russia. Despite China and Russia differences both have cordial ties against US interests. Moscow and Beijing cooperate in economic, energy, combating terrorism and preservation of Central Asian regimes. China and Russia considers the presence of US in Central Asia as a threat to their regional security. Currently, the interests of US are being balanced by China and Russia partnership. Central Asian regimes are not in the favor of US presence in the region. US is losing its interests due to combat operations in Afghanistan and not reorienting its policies to cope up with the challenges of new millennium.
Kerasulan Kitab Suci: Sebuah Studi Kasus dan Dokumen Dei Verbum
Authors: Anggoro Antonius Puri
Published: October 2022

Dei Verbum is a document from the Second Vatican Council which presents a fundamental understanding of the Scripture in the Church. Regarding its principal position as the source of Christian's faith, the magisterium urges the significance of proclaiming Scripture through homilies, catechesis, and, fellowship. Nowadays, Christians increasingly encourage to involve in this ministry. Nevertheless, there is a huge gap in understanding and awareness of the meaning and role of the Scripture, between clerics and laities. This condition shows how in the Church, especially in Indonesia, theology is still a limited domain of scholars and clergies. Driven by the spirit of communion promoted by the Second Vatican Council and the call from Dei Verbum to bring Scripture to life in the lives of all Christians, this paper presents a simple study of the problems facing Christians regarding their understanding of the Scriptures and the recommendations inspired by this document to address these issues.

Pathologists' Assistants in Nontraditional Roles: Uncovering the Hidden Value in Your Laboratory
Authors: Gaburo Heather
Published: October 2022

Context.—

Pathologists' assistants (PathAs) have been involved in the traditional roles of macroscopic examination (“grossing”), frozen sections, and autopsy since the profession was developed in the 1970s as a response to the perceived workforce shortage in pathology. Additionally, PathAs are well suited for nontraditional roles in the laboratory, but are often underused in these roles because a PathA's value is easier to see in traditional roles.

Objective.—

To describe the nontraditional roles PathAs are involved in and how PathAs in these roles bring value to pathologists, patients, and health care organizations.

Data Sources.—

Literature about PathAs was reviewed, and interviews with pathologists and PathAs in nontraditional roles were conducted.

Conclusions.—

PathAs are capable of handling a wide range of nontraditional roles in the pathology laboratory. Using PathAs to the full extent of their knowledge, skills, and interests will bring value to pathology practices, PathAs, organizations, and patients through increased quality of care, saved pathologist time, higher revenues, and improved department reputation. Using PathAs in these roles also has the potential to evolve pathology practices and the PathA profession.
RNA therapeutics from rare to common diseases
Authors: Tsai Yueh-Lin , Chen Yaqiong
Published: October 2022

RNA therapeutics have taken a center stage during the pandemic, due to the successful development and launch of two mRNA COVID-19 vaccines (by Moderna and Pfizer/BioNTech). Although there are already multiple commercially successful RNA drugs for the treatment of orphan indications, this is the first time that RNA therapies unlock their commercial value in mass population. With the backdrop of massive capital and interest flooding into the field of RNA therapeutics, many companies began to expand their orphan-indication-centered RNA therapeutic portfolio into common diseases. In this article, we calculated the success rate of publicly available RNA therapeutic pipelines at each development stage as well as their likelihood of approval (LOA).  We found those targeting common diseases have a much lower LOA rate when compared with pipelines targeting rare diseases (5.8% vs. 23.8%). Consequently, we discussed the underlying challenges and potential opportunities for RNA therapeutics moving from rare to common diseases.
