Authors:   Souphanouvong Univerity, SIPHANTHONG Bounthavy
Published: September 2024

The purpose of the analysis of the impact of exchange rates on macroeconomic factors of Lao PDR from 2012-2022 aims to (1) analyze the fluctuation of macroeconomic factors and exchange rate of Kip/Dollar and Kip/Baht in the Lao PDR from 2012-2021 and (2) the impact of the exchange rate on the macroeconomic factors of the Lao PDR from 2012-2021. By bringing the collected data to summarize, interpret, consider, select and analyze by using descriptive statistical model and inferential statistics to find a value in percentage, parameter value of regression equation with OLS through E-view 12. The analysis results found that: the exchange rate of Kip/Dollar has effect on the Gross National Income (GNI) of the Lao PDR in the same direction relationship, if the exchange rate changes and increases, it means that the kip of Lao PDR is weak. The country will have the ability to compete in terms of price or make the income from exports that change the value of the kip increase and have a continuous effect on the wages of labor in businesses related to exports, investment and the purchasing power of consumers through income and the economic growth increases, lead to export and investment increase. That will result in the increase of the Gross National Income (GNI) of the Lao PDR. The Consumer Price Index of Lao PDR is continuously increasing, if the Dollar /Kip exchange rate increase by 1 US dollar (USD), it will cause the consumer price index (CPI) of Lao PDR to increase by 1.67% in US dollar (USD). For the exchange rate and export relationship of Lao PDR, it shows that if the exchange rate of Dollar/Kip increase by 1 US dollar (USD), it will result in the export value (EX) of Lao PDR increase by 11.15% US dollar (USD). In other side, the Thai/Kip Baht exchange rate is unable to explain the Gross National Income (GNI), Consumer Price Index (CPI) and Lao PDR's exports clearly, which means that there is no relationship among them, or in other words, the Thai Baht exchange rate does not affect the macroeconomic factors in the model of this research.

Introduction: Ameloblastoma is a slow-growing tumor, presenting bone expansion and high recurrence rates. It originates from the tooth enamel, dental follicle, periodontal ligament or lining of odontogenic cysts and odontogenic epithelium. Recently, in 2022, the WHO reclassified ameloblastomas into conventional, unicystic, peripheral and metastatic due to prospective views based on updates to genetic studies, which has generated a dilemma in the literature regarding the ideal therapeutic approach for conventional ameloblastoma, to provide a lower surgical risk and morbidity to patients. Purpose: Carry out an integrative review of the literature, describing 02 resections of conventional ameloblastomas after conservative treatment and 01 report of peripheral transformation, providing valuable information on management. Methodology: The current study was divided into two stages. The first step consists in a descriptive series of three cases of conventional ameloblastomas treated by conservative methods, where two of them were subsequently submitted to partial resection and the third one turned into a peripheral ameloblastoma. In the second step, an integrative and systematic review was carried out in accordance with the PRISMA recommendations on resection and excision for treating conventional ameloblastomas. Results: Classification and treatment methods in cases of ameloblastoma are based on histopathological characteristics and can range from enucleation to resection with reconstruction. This study focuses on three case reports of patients with conventional ameloblastoma. The treatment consisted in two partial resections with primary reconstructions and one enucleation combined with a peripheral osteotomy after conservative treatments without prolonged follow-up. The treatment of choice and recurrence were evaluated, and the patients had satisfactory results. Conclusion: There is no consensus on the treatment of ameloblastomas. Both conservative surgeries and radical interventions are used. The chosen treatment must take into account the location of the tumor, size, age, general health condition and cooperation of the patient, possibility of long-term delivery, histopathological pattern and professional experience.
ESTUDO DE MANIFESTAÇÕES PATOLÓGICAS EM MONUMENTOS PÚBLICOS DE ARACAJU: O PAPEL DA ENGENHARIA CIVIL NA PRESERVAÇÃO DA HISTÓRIA E CULTURA

Published: September 2024

Aracaju’s monuments current outlook exposes the lack of maintenance e basic care for these and also the need for intervention by engineers in these structures. Sergipe’s capital, since its foundation, was molded by its monuments, whether they are public buildings, important people’s houses or statues. Based on this, this paper aims to clarify which constructive pathologies are present in the city’s monuments e what are their consequences for these structures e to the city’s culture, in order to show the corrective maintenance procedures for cases where structures were affected by corrosion, cracks and mold and suffered depredation actions caused by men. For this, monuments scattered around the capital of Sergipe were studied in order to identify current conditions and, after depth study of them, it was possible to determine what type of procedure to adopt for each type of pathology. Based on made visits "in loco", it was possible to assign a degree of damage of each monument and thereby create a preventive maintenance methodology for these, after corrective maintenance, avoiding high repair costs after years of depredation, given that maintenance costs increase exponentially as a function of time. In addition to reducing costs for the city, the constant monitoring of Aracaju’s monuments allows them to be never lost over time, thus preserving the historical and cultural identity of Aracaju’s and Sergipe’s society as a whole, since the civil engineer must be in harmony with everything that surrounds him in society.
A MATLAB APP FOR BALANCING A CAPACITOR BANK IN THE DOUBLE STAR CONNECTION - NEUTRAL, NOT CONNECTED
Authors: Viana Lucas Menezes , Coura Tulio Henrique
Published: September 2024

This study presents a methodology for maintaining and rebalancing Double Star configuration capacitor banks, which are critical for managing power consumption peaks. As electricity demand is projected to rise by 21% by 2040, efficient maintenance methods are essential to ensure energy security. The paper introduces a novel approach to rebalance capacitor banks using a Matlab application, which simulates the unbalance current that may occur due to capacitive unit failures. Key aspects of capacitor banks, such as construction, connections, and protection methods, were reviewed to inform the methodology. Capacitor banks are used to control voltage, correct power factor, and reduce losses, but they can experience imbalances due to natural variances in capacitance or failures. The study developed a mathematical model to calculate the unbalance current and validated this model through simulations in LTspice software. The resulting rebalancing flowchart provides a step-by-step guide for technicians to follow during maintenance. The project achieved its goals, demonstrating through 24 simulations that the developed methodology and Matlab application could successfully predict unbalance currents with a negligible margin of error. The paper concludes that the methodology is ready for implementation, and each capacitor bank will require a tailored rebalancing application based on the presented calculations.

The laying hen farming system prevalent in Portugal keeps the birds locked up in industrial cages. This prevents the birds from exercising natural behaviors that are essential for maintaining their physical and emotional well-being. The alternative is to use cage-free rearing systems for laying hens. Brazil has no legislation guaranteeing the welfare of the birds, so the switch to cage-free rearing depends on pressure from the consumer market. Companies that comply with minimum animal welfare rules and produce eggs with cage-free birds can obtain the CAGE FREE label, controlled by the non-profit organization Certified Humane Brasil. The aim of this work was to assess egg consumers' prior knowledge of the egg production system prevalent in Brazil, carry out a face-to-face awareness campaign in markets and pet shops and, finally, carry out a survey to find out whether consumers care about the quality of life of laying hens and whether they are willing to buy eggs from cage-free hens. Ninety-six people took part in the study and it was possible to see that only 46.95% of those interviewed were aware of the production system prevalent in Brazil, as well as that 84.4% of those interviewed said they would pay more for eggs from free-range hens, which shows that the welfare of hens is important to Brazilian consumers.

The objective of this article is to estimate the prevalence and factors related to the risk of Low Birth Weight (LBW), and its impact on socioeconomically disadvantaged populations. A cross-sectional, analytical study was used, based on data available in the Information Technology Department of the Unified Health System (DATASUS), more specifically, in the Live Birth Information System (SINASC). For data analysis, the EPI-INFO 7.0 program was used, where bivariate analysis was used with the Chi-square test considering the Mantel-Haenszel method to identify which factors are associated with LBW. 49,481 live births were examined in the State of Mato Grosso, 8.78% of which were affected by LBW. In the bivariate analysis, LBW was mostly recorded in children of pregnant women who were in the risk age group, marital status in which they lived alone/separated, indigenous race or skin color, black or mixed race, and lived in a region with low HDI . Furthermore, there are other factors related to pregnancy that had a strong influence on LBW, including: number of prenatal consultations and type of pregnancy. Regarding the characteristics of newborns, LBW presented a majority in female babies and those born prematurely and/or with malformations or congenital anomalies. The results found in the present study justify the need to improve actions capable of serving the maternal and child population so that economic and demographic factors have less impact on the occurrence of LBW.

Foi realizada uma revisão sistemática seguindo as diretrizes PRISMA, incluindo estudos que analisaram o uso da dulaglutida (DGT) em pacientes pediátricos, com foco na redução da massa corporal. A busca resultou em três estudos relevantes, com intervenções variando de 26 semanas a vários meses. Os resultados indicam que, embora a DGT seja eficaz na redução da hemoglobina glicada e dos níveis de glicose em jejum, seu impacto na perda de peso e no índice de massa corporal (IMC) foi inconclusivo, com apenas um relato de caso mostrando melhora significativa. Os efeitos adversos observados foram consistentes com aqueles encontrados em pacientes adultos, principalmente distúrbios gastrointestinais. A literatura ainda é limitada, sugerindo assim a necessidade de mais ensaios clínicos robustos para avaliar a segurança e a eficácia da DGT na perda de peso de crianças e adolescentes. Conclui-se que, apesar do potencial no controle glicêmico de jovens portadores diabetes mellitus tipo 2 (DM2), o uso da DGT no manejo da obesidade infantil ainda requer cautela e mais investigação.

Animal trafficking has been gaining momentum in Brazil and, as a result of this crime, it has become one of the main causes of threats to animals, endangered species and biodiversity. The illegal trade in these animals is the third largest trafficking, behind only arms and drug trafficking, with exorbitant numbers of animals exploited, with approximately 38 million animals being removed from Brazil each year. It is estimated that for every 10 animals stolen from their natural habitat, 9 do not survive due to the precarious conditions they are subjected to during transportation, which is one of the main reasons for the threat to biodiversity. Since this is a crime that produces several negative effects and occurs mostly to satisfy human desires, stricter laws need to be regulated to reduce this crime, considering that in addition to the low routine imposed, sometimes the penalty is not properly applied, leaving the crime unpunished so that the act continues and more animals become victims of this situation. The topic of animal trafficking involves several fields, going beyond the possible loss of biodiversity, such as violation of animal welfare, ecology, law, biology, public health, mistreatment, ethics, among others, thus offering a possible opportunity for comprehensive and multidisciplinary research, enriching academic knowledge and bringing more visibility to the subject. The study of this topic contributes to the understanding and awareness about environmental protection, in addition to affecting not only ecosystems, but also social, economic and public health consequences. In view of the facts mentioned, investigating this problem can help identify solutions to mitigate its negative impacts on society.

Nurses play a very important role in breastfeeding, such as welcoming mothers during childbirth, guiding and clarifying doubts about breastfeeding and supporting and encouraging breastfeeding during the first hour after birth, significantly reducing infant mortality. In the clinical management of breastfeeding, the nurse needs scientific and technical knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of breastfeeding. Breastfeeding, emotional and psychological factors can make it difficult, in addition to communication techniques, to be able to give adequate instructions. standing and lapping, manually expressing breast milk, and alternative breast milk delivery methods other than bottles. Regarding the role of nurses in the context of the National Breastfeeding Policy, they must be prepared to prevent, identify and resolve problems in interactions between mothers and breastfeeding babies, especially related to breastfeeding, as obstacles are identified during the operation. It’s a success. Therefore, care must be taken to ensure that these needs of nursing mothers during breastfeeding during hospitalization are identified and met early, avoiding premature weaning or starting complementary feeding when the baby is in the hospital is still important. Therefore, clinical management of breastfeeding is necessary to strengthen breastfeeding practices and, likewise, direct intervention with the caring mother to be able to provide healthy nutrition to the newborn.
