Climate change poses a threat to the viability of rural households in Niger, where the concern is all the greater as the economy is based on agriculture, which is mainly dependent on rainfall and employs most of the working population. The aim of this study is to compare farmers' perceptions of the effects of climate change with observed data, and to identify the adaptation strategies they are developing to cope with them. Surveys were carried out using focus groups and questionnaires with a sample of eighty-six heads of households in six villages in the commune of Rurale Bittinkodji in the Kollo department of the Tillabéri region of Niger. Analysis of climatic parameters shows a 23% decrease in average rainfall, based on data from the Niamey station, and a trend towards higher temperatures and wind speeds. This trend is in line with perceptions of climatic parameters, which show a decrease in rainfall (89.5%), an increase in temperatures (76.7%) and wind speeds (89.5%). Farmers are aware of the climatic and environmental changes that have occurred, and have developed adaptation strategies. The coping strategies they have developed relate mainly to small-scale trading, irrigated farming, market gardening, fruit growing and migration. The implementation of adaptation strategies by farmers depends on the means available to provide sustainable solutions. They perceive the future as critical in terms of future difficulties if current trends continue.

KA is the cathode-anode voltage between the freewheeling diode (FWD), as shown in Fig. 1) of the FWD of the NBL IGBT is 54.6% lower than that of the GASY IGBT for the same turn-on loss (E
ON). In the on-state, compared with the GASY IGBT, the NBL IGBT has one more channel, and the N-barrier layer also blocks part of the holes. Thus, the conductivity modulation effect can be enhanced and the on-state voltage (V
ON) can be reduced. The simulation results show that V
ON of the NBL IGBT is 14.4% lower than that of the GASY IGBT at 30 A on-state current. In addition, the proposed IGBT has no additional complex structure, so it is simple to manufacture and does not increase the production cost.

A Study on the Application of Terms Regulation Act to Agreements Related to Insurance Workers : focusing on the supreme court ruling of June 30, 2022, 2019Da246696 ·2019Da246702
Authors:   Korean Insurance Law Association, Seo Go Eun
Published: November 2024

Insurance workers refer to individuals or organizations that act as intermediaries or agents between insurers and policyholders. Insurance workers includes branch managers, insurance consultants and so on. Insurance workers enter into various contracts and agreements with insurers during the processes of appointment, performance of duties, and termination.
However, questions arise regarding whether the Terms Regulation Act should apply in cases of disputes related to contracts or agreements with insurers. It may seem reasonable for Terms Regulation Act is applied to contracts or agreements. Because contracts or agreements can be seen as pre-prepared contractual terms established by insurers to enter into agreements with multiple insurance workers and insurance workers are considered to be in a subordinate position compared to insurers.
But, first, in some contracts or agreements between insurers and insurance workers, the presence of individual negotiations raises the question of whether the requirements for the validity of the terms have been met. Second, there are also insurance workers whose status as employees is recognized by the insurer. And last, even if an insurance worker's status as an employee is not recognized, there are insurance workers who, depending on their type, experience, and performance, cannot necessarily be considered to be in a subordinate position compared to the insurer.
The purpose of Terms Regulation Act is to invalidate unfair terms and to regulate businesses that apply them, ensuring that economically weaker parties can enjoy the freedom of contract. Therefore, rather than applying Terms Regulation Act unconditionally to insurance workers, it is necessary to carefully examine whether each insurance worker requires protection under Terms Regulation Act and whether the relevant contracts or agreements meet the requirements for the validity of Terms Regulation Act, thus applying it more cautiously.
The cautious application of Terms Regulation Act can prevent its indiscriminate application from undermining the intentions and purposes of the parties involved in contracts or agreements, as well as prevent insurance workers from abusing the strict obligations and sanctions imposed by Terms Regulation Act.
Reflections on the Legal Nature and Key Issues of Fidelity Guarantee Insurance
Authors:   Korean Insurance Law Association, Lee Jun Kyo
Published: November 2024

Due to the distinctive features of fidelity guarantee insurance, which differ from typical surety insurance, various issues arise regarding the legal nature of this insurance contract, the rights acquired by the insurer after paying the insurance claim, and the scope of exercising such rights. This paper reexamines the legal nature of current fidelity guarantee insurance, arguing that while the type of insurance contract for the benefit of others can be viewed as a form of typical surety insurance, the type of insurance contract for one's own benefit should be regarded as a form of general indemnity insurance, similar to credit insurance. It is particularly noted that, in the latter case, a separate term, “fidelity credit insurance,” should be used. Moreover, since fidelity guarantee and fidelity credit insurance cannot be classified as liability insurance, the direct claim right of the victim under the Commercial Act cannot be applied. The starting point for the statute of limitations on the right to claim insurance benefits should be differentiated based on the type of damage covered: in cases where the insured suffers direct damage due to the employee's illegal acts, the statute of limitations should begin from the occurrence of the insurance event, while in cases where the insured assumes employer liability to a third party, the statute of limitations should begin from the time the damage amount is determined.
Given the differing legal nature of current fidelity guarantee insurance depending on the type of contract, it is necessary to separate and reorganize the terms into fidelity guarantee insurance terms and fidelity credit insurance terms. As part of revising the insurance terms, this paper proposes clarifying expressions in the compensation clauses of current fidelity guarantee insurance terms that might be misunderstood as liability insurance, distinguishing and organizing whether the rights acquired by the insurer after paying the insurance claim are subrogation rights or rights of indemnity according to each set of insurance terms, clarifying the coverage of defense costs, and specifying how the statute of limitations should be applied based on the type of damage covered. This would clarify the legal nature of fidelity guarantee and fidelity credit insurance, helping to appropriately fulfill the intended purpose of the insurance contract for the parties involved and contributing to the prevention of unnecessary and costly disputes.

O Transtorno Dissociativo de Identidade (TDI) é uma condição complexa caracterizada pela fragmentação da identidade e dissociação da consciência, frequentemente associada a traumas graves na infância. Este artigo revisa as principais abordagens diagnósticas para o TDI, explorando a utilização do DSM-5 como referência clínica, em contraste com as limitações da CID-10. Instrumentos como a Escala de Experiências Dissociativas (DES) e técnicas projetivas, como o Rorschach, foram destacados por sua utilidade na avaliação dos aspectos conscientes e inconscientes da personalidade. Observou-se que a falta de uniformidade entre sistemas classificatórios e a ausência de ferramentas práticas e específicas representam barreiras significativas para o diagnóstico e a pesquisa científica. Concluiu-se que o aprimoramento de metodologias diagnósticas e o aprofundamento dos estudos sobre o transtorno são essenciais para um manejo clínico mais eficaz.

A anemia ferropriva, é uma condição no qual ocasiona carência nutricional, caracterizada pela redução de glóbulos vermelhos e hemoglobina, é a forma mais comum de anemia, representando 90% dos casos. Essa é uma condição geralmente acometida por mulheres em estado gestacional, apresentando um grupo de risco devido à sua vulnerabilidade à carência de ferro. Essa pesquisa tem como objetivo buscar evidências científicas sobre a prevalência da anemia ferropriva em gestantes e os aspectos nutricionais associados a essa condição.  Trata-se de um estudo de revisão integrativa de literatura, descrito nas bases de dados Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), National Library of Medicine (Pubmed) e Literatura Latino-Americana em ciências da saúde (Lilacs) busca pelas publicações ocorreu com recorte temporal dos últimos 10 anos, entre os meses de setembro a dezembro de 2023, sendo incluídos 06 artigos. Os estudos indicam que a anemia é comum entre mulheres no país, com uma taxa de prevalência de 29,4%; tendo como contribuintes para alta prevalência em gestantes, fatores, como condições socioeconômicas, acesso insuficiente ao pré-natal e uma nutrição inadequada.  Ainda nessa perspectiva autores enfatizam, que a suplementação de ferro, junto a uma dieta equilibrada, é uma das principais estratégias para prevenir e tratar a anemia. No entanto, sua eficácia depende de uma abordagem multidisciplinar, sobre a importância da suplementação que inclua educação nutricional e políticas públicas a fim de evitar complicações para a saúde materna e fetal

A esquizofrenia é uma condição psiquiátrica crônica e debilitante que afeta milhões de pessoas globalmente, caracterizada por sintomas psicóticos, negativos e cognitivos que impactam severamente a funcionalidade e a qualidade de vida dos pacientes. Este estudo revisa sistematicamente a eficácia dos antipsicóticos de segunda geração (APSG) no manejo da esquizofrenia, com ênfase na redução de sintomas e na melhoria da adesão ao tratamento, ao considerar a tolerabilidade aprimorada desses fármacos em relação aos antipsicóticos de primeira geração (APFG). A análise incluiu ensaios clínicos, meta-análises e revisões publicadas entre 2015 e 2023, evidenciando que os APSG, como risperidona, olanzapina e quetiapina, proporcionam reduções significativas nos sintomas negativos e leves benefícios cognitivos, o que não é geralmente observado com os APFG. Apesar das vantagens clínicas, os APSG apresentam efeitos colaterais metabólicos, como ganho de peso e alterações no perfil lipídico, que limitam seu uso prolongado. Para otimizar os desfechos, destaca-se a relevância da combinação de APSG com intervenções psicossociais, que demonstraram reduzir as taxas de recaída e promover uma recuperação funcional mais completa. A revisão conclui que os APSG, quando bem monitorados e individualizados conforme o perfil do paciente, oferecem uma abordagem terapêutica mais eficaz para o manejo da esquizofrenia, ao passo que recomenda pesquisas futuras que explorem estratégias para mitigar os efeitos adversos metabólicos e avaliem o impacto de tratamentos combinados em longo prazo.

A pré-eclâmpsia é uma condição grave que ocorre durante a gravidez, sendo caracterizada por hipertensão, proteinúria e disfunção orgânica. Embora sua causa exata não seja totalmente clara, acredita-se que a fisiopatologia envolve problemas na implantação placentária, o que resulta em alterações nos vasos sanguíneos maternos. Essa revisão integrativa teve como objetivo identificar na literatura atual a importância da avaliação oftalmológica nas consultas de pré-natal das gestantes, com o intuito de auxiliar no diagnóstico precoce, no prognóstico e, assim, no melhor desfecho das gestações.  A coleta de dados foi realizada nas bases de dados Portal de periódicos da Capes, Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS), Embase, Publisher Medline (PUBMED) e Cochrane Library (via Cochrane Library), considerando artigos de 2019 até abril de 2024. Inicialmente foram encontrados um total de 1.491 artigos. Após aplicação dos critérios de seleção e leitura dos artigos na íntegra, foram incluídos 20 artigos nesta revisão. A patologia desencadeia liberação de substâncias angiogênicas como o fator de crescimento endotelial (VEGF), o que acarreta alterações vasculares, gerando sintomas oculares como aumento da pressão intraocular, hemorragias e edema na retina. Além disso, essas manifestações podem persistir após o parto em alguns pacientes e estão associadas a um maior risco futuro de doenças cardiovasculares.

O objetivo desse estudo foi investigar a associação entre o comportamento sedentário excessivo, os hábitos alimentares e os indicadores de saúde mental em adolescentes escolarizados brasileiros. Trata-se de um estudo transversal, baseado nas informações da quarta edição da Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde do Escolar - PeNSE - 2019. A amostra foi composta por 159.034 adolescentes entre 10 a 19 anos, de ambos os sexos e estudantes de escolas públicas e privadas de todas as regiões do Brasil. A variável dependente foi “Comportamento Sedentário (CS) excessivo”. As informações que caracterizaram e compuseram as variáveis foram obtidas do banco de dados disponibilizado pelo Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística. Os dados foram analisados através da estatística descritiva e da regressão logística binomial, verificado o Intervalo de Confiança (IC 95%) e nível de significância de 0,05. As análises foram feitas com o software Jamovi® for Windows, versão 2.3. Adolescentes que tem poucos amigos próximos apresentaram relação significativa com o desfecho, (OR = 1.04; IC 95% = 1.00;1.08); escolares que se sentiram tristes (OR = 1.08; IC 95% = 1.06 ;1.11); solidão (OR = 1.14; IC 95% = 1.11;1.16); irritação, apresentou o sentimento que mais tem exposição para CS em excesso (OR = 1.41; IC 95% = 1.37;1.45); ideação suicida (OR = 1.28; IC 95% = 1.24;1.31). Os adolescentes que se alimentaram com “comida não saudável”, mostraram 54% de ter CS excessivo (OR = 1.54; IC 95% = 1.51;1.56) e os que se alimentaram com “comida saudável” tiveram chances diminuídas de ter CS em excesso (OR = 0.85; IC 95% = 0.84;0.86). Conclui-se que há CS excessivo positivo quando associados aos indicativos de saúde mental, como a falta de amigos próximos, tristeza, solidão, irritação, ideação suicida e hábitos alimentares inadequados.

Published: November 2024

Introdução: O desenvolvimento motor é o conjunto de características em constante evolução que permite que um bebê que possui atividade motora essencialmente reflexa ao nascimento, evolua para a motricidade voluntária e realize movimentos complexos e coordenados, tais como a deambulação, a corrida, os movimentos finos de mão, entre outros. A American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recomenda que o tempo de exposição de crianças à tela não ultrapasse 2 horas por dia, com conteúdos educativos e adequados para a faixa etária. Objetivos: O objetivo dessa pesquisa foi avaliar o desenvolvimento motor de crianças e identificar fatores causais de atraso motor. Material e Métodos: O tipo de estudo é exploratório e descritivo. Através do Google Forms foi realizado um questionário elaborado pelos pesquisadores contendo 20 perguntas, sobre desenvolvimento motor e o grau de independência, imitação de movimentos, coordenação motora fina, coordenação motora grossa e equilíbrio. A amostra foi composta de 23 crianças, com média de idade entre 2 a 5 anos, do sexo feminino e masculino. Resultados e Discussão: A interação entre tempo de tela, superproteção e falta de estimulação impacta significativamente o desenvolvimento motor infantil. A abordagem preventiva e educativa é essencial para garantir que as crianças desenvolvam suas habilidades de forma adequada e saudável. Os dados obtidos nesta pesquisa revelam que o tempo excessivo de tela, a superproteção parental e a falta de estímulo motor são fatores que contribuem significativamente para o atraso no desenvolvimento motor das crianças. Conclusão: É evidente que a criação de ambientes que incentivem o movimento, a exploração e a brincadeira são essenciais para o desenvolvimento integral das crianças. A intervenção precoce e o acompanhamento contínuo são vitais para garantir que as crianças tenham a oportunidade de se desenvolver plenamente.

Robust neotissue growth including cartilage, muscle, adipose and glands was observed on the external surface of 3D-printed tracheal grafts transplanted into a 3-month-old large-scale porcine, noticeable after 7 days. This study is the first to categorize the regeneration stages in detail, aiming for a clearer understanding of the cell development process, as previously studies have not fully elucidated chondrogenesis and glandogenesis mechanisms. We’ve identified 4 stages of chondrogenesis based on chondrocyte numbers, protein expression and perichondrium presence. Muscle cells evolved from a fibroblast-like state, confirmed by αSMA and SM-MHC markers, while initial adipose tissue resembling brown fat diminished over time. Gland development, marked by a change were in MUC5B expression, paralleled the findings in native trachea epithelium and submucosal glands. TGF-β1 and type XII collagen were key indicators in the emerging neotissue post-transplant.
Children as Levels: Early Understandings of Reading Development Conceptualized by Preservice Teachers
Authors: Fraser Andrea
Published: November 2024

This qualitative study surfaced beliefs around reading instruction and reading development at the onset of an elementary literacy methods course. Prior understandings and knowledge around reading instruction and reading acquisition emerge through various experiences and have the potential to contradict notions presented by teacher educators. This inquiry explored prior beliefs held by five preservice teachers (PSTs) about the nature of reading and the teaching of reading, drawing on a thematic analysis (Braun & Clarke, 2006) of a pre-course survey. Results indicated that early understandings of reading development and pedagogy appear to rely on levelling systems for assessing and identifying students’ acquisition of reading skills, as well as organizing students into levels for instruction. Beliefs that reading development progresses through a levelled gradient are problematic for both teacher and student, shifting attention away from the complex nature of reading acquisition and the skills required to develop proficiency. While no generalizable statement can be made regarding PSTs’ most frequently held beliefs, this pilot study puts forward the idea that understanding PSTs’ prior beliefs is a critical part of teacher education. Intentional opportunities to unpack prior beliefs and understandings may offer insight for teacher educators to engage students in discourse and experience cognitive dissonance around inconsistencies, making space for learning and unlearning.

Published: November 2024

As part of our ethical responsibilities as scholar-practitioners and community members living as uninvited guests on Indigenous territories, we engaged in a collaborative inquiry to explore ways in which Indigenous pedagogies and worldviews extend understandings of self within self-study research. Over several years, we engaged in reflective conversations about our respective tensions, challenges, and successes in the effort to decolonize and Indigenize our pedagogies and research. These conversations moved us over time to a particular orientation as we shared our life stories as educators and women. We began by documenting our experiences and reflections at each meeting and shared in meaning making how our orientations shifted to ways of being in relation. The emerging synergies of our relationality led us to name our experiences “alongside stories,” in which we made meaning of the intersections and nuances between forms of self-study research and Indigenous Ways of Knowing. In sharing the alongside stories, we re-presented our collaborative understandings of inquiry as interweavings. These interweavings allowed us to explore how our knowledge and belief systems could be intertwined and disentwined to reveal resonances and particularities. Our exploration led us to reframe inquiry and self-study as Indigenously understood.

Prenatal diagnosis of the vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation. Congenital malformation
develops during weeks 6-11 of fetal development as a persistent embryonic prosencephalic
vein of Markowski. The incidence of this malformation is estimated to be high. The true
incidence is unknown but estimated to be 1 in 10,000 to 1 in 25,000 births. malformation
accounts for 30% of pediatric congenital vascular malformations and about 1% of all pediatric
congenital anomalies. Infants often die of high-output congestive heart failure [1,2]. The
presenting case report’s main aim is to illustrate the disease with ultrasound performed
during pregnancy and Magnetic resonance characteristics, postnatal evaluation, parenteral
counseling, and their decision for further treatment in the neighboring country [3]. It should
be stressed that the fetus has mosaicism of Turner Syndrome, two lines, normal and unusual
abnormal form. The pregnancy was 34 gestational weeks with intrauterine growth restriction.
The limitation in the precision of prenatal diagnosis at primary care obstetricians and the use
of additional diagnostics tools for improving the diagnosis can lead to unwanted events of
pregnancy, like intrauterine fetal demise. This does not happen in this case.

This study investigates the effect of mechanization on the performance of construction workers in Kenya. It focuses on high-rise building projects in Nairobi County. The research employed a quantitative research strategy and a survey design, targeting construction site supervisors to collect data on the performance of construction workers (PCW) and mechanization levels (M) across various work categories including; Site Preparation and Earthworks (SPE), Scaffolding and Formwork (SF), Concreting (C), Walling (W), Plastering and Flooring (PF), Tiling and Painting (TP), and Building Services (BS). The performance of construction workers was measured based on two aspects, labour efficiency (LE) across the seven work categories, and labour effectiveness. Labour effectiveness was further broken down into two aspects, quality of work (QWo), and the extent of training and skillset development (TSD). The results of a correlation analysis between labour efficiency and mechanization indicate that out of the seven work categories, only Concreting demonstrated a statistically significant relationship (-0.189, p=0.045). The relationship was very weak and negative. Though this confirmed the hypothesized relationship between mechanization and labour efficiency, it can be argued that the effect of mechanization on the efficiency of construction workers in Kenya is almost non-existent. However, correlation analysis between mechanization and labour effectiveness demonstrated a positive correlation between mechanization and the training and skill development of workers. Results of the multiple regression showed a statistically significant effect of mechanization in SPE, SF, and Concreting works on PCW. The research findings suggest that while mechanization introduces challenges such as increased costs and skill requirements, it also necessitates strategic workforce planning to optimize productivity and worker welfare. The study contributes to understanding the dynamics between mechanization and labour performance in construction projects, emphasizing the need for effective labour management practices amid technological advancements in the modern era
The growing potential of tofacitinib in immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced colitis: identifying remaining puzzle pieces
Authors: Pellegrino Raffaele , Palladino Giovanna , Imperio Giuseppe , Gravina Antonietta Gerarda
Published: November 2024

Immunotherapy, a primary anti-neoplastic treatment, exploits the patient’s immune system to kill neoplastic cells by modulating immune checkpoints such as cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 and programmed cell death 1. Despite an apparent anti-neoplastic efficacy, immunotherapeutic agents are often accompanied by multiorgan toxicity, including gastrointestinal ones. This particular class of immunotherapy-related adverse events, mainly represented by diarrhea and colitis, necessitates a nuanced treatment strategy. Current treatments are primarily based on standardized severity grading systems to guide and proportion therapeutic interventions, ranging from simple behavioral modifications or conventional molecules (such as anti-diarrheal) to advanced biological treatments. Tofacitinib, a pan-Janus kinase inhibitor, emerged as a potential option for managing immune-related (IR) colitis by targeting hyperactivated T cells within the colic microenvironment. However, evidence supporting the use of tofacitinib in IR colitis is primarily derived from case reports and small case series, lacking robust randomized clinical trial data. While preliminary findings demonstrate encouraging clinical control of IR colitis with tofacitinib, further research is warranted to elucidate its efficacy, safety, optimal dosage, and treatment duration. Although there are some worries about its effects on cancer response and safety, current evidence indicates that tofacitinib could be seen as a possible treatment choice if other therapies with more robust evidence profiles have not been successful.

Published: November 2024

El periodo de entreguerras es una etapa de cambios y acontecimientos determinantes para entender la Historia Contemporánea de España y del País Vasco. El ascenso y caída de la dictadura de Primo de Rivera es uno de los hitos centrales de este periodo. En el País Vasco, coincide con un periodo de efervescencia económica, dinamismo y reordenación política y de profundos cambios sociales.
En el marco del centenario del golpe de Estado, esta obra ofrece un estudio transversal y coherente, que, desde una perspectiva integral, nos permite profundizar y entender mejor el contexto y la realidad político-institucional, económica, hacendística, demográfica, social y cultural del País Vasco durante el periodo de la dictadura de Primo de Rivera.
Esta visión panorámica del periodo se ha logrado gracias a la colaboración de un nutrido grupo de especialistas de distintas áreas de conocimiento y departamentos de la Universidad del País Vasco (UPV/EHU), bajo la dirección de los profesores Unai Belaustegi, Mikel Erkoreka y Josu Hernando. Como resultado de esta colaboración, la obra se divide en nueve capítulos, organizados en tres bloques temáticos complementarios e interconectados entre sí: Política y cultura; Economía y gestión pública; Sociedad y población.
Además de contribuir al avance del conocimiento y la investigación, se ha realizado un especial esfuerzo para que la obra pueda ser disfrutada por un público general que quiera conocer los entresijos de un periodo corto a la par que intenso y de gran interés histórico en el devenir de nuestro país.

Background. Antibiotics were widely used during the COVID-19 pandemic, which may have led to an increase in the number and diversity of antibiotic resistance genes. Most studies assessing the human resistome during this period were conducted over a short period of time and on diﬀerent cohorts of people. In this case, the most informative approach is to study the composition of the resistome in people who have and have not recovered from COVID-19, using paired stool samples obtained before and after the pandemic.

The aim of the study was to assess the prevalence of antibiotic resistance genes in the intestinal microbiota of the adult population of Arkhangelsk city before and after the COVID-19 pandemic.

Material and Methods. The study included a random population sample of residents of Arkhangelsk who provided paired stool samples at intervals of ﬁve years. The study procedure included surveying and identiﬁcation of antibiotic resistance genes in stool samples using polymerase chain reaction. Processing of the obtained data was carried out in the R language.

Results. The samples of almost all participants contained genes that cause resistance to macrolides: mefA and ermB. The frequency of glycopeptide resistance genes (vanA and vanB) in post-pandemic samples decreased signiﬁcantly. There is a trend towards an increase in the number of antibiotic resistance genes among patients hospitalized for COVID-19 compared to outpatients. The proportion of macrolide resistance genes shifted toward an increased relative representation of mefA in post-pandemic samples.

Conclusion. The resistome of study participants did not undergo signiﬁcant changes during the COVID-19 pandemic, except for a decrease in the prevalence of glycopeptide resistance genes and a change in the ratio of macrolide resistance genes.
