INVESTIGAÇÃO SOBRE AGENESIA DENTÁRIA EM INDIVÍDUOS JOVENS: DESAFIOS E PERSPECTIVAS
Authors: Santos Jonathan William Almeida dos
Published: October 2024

A agenesia dentária é uma condição significativa que afeta a saúde bucal e a qualidade de vida, com prevalências entre 3% e 10% na população geral, variando conforme a região e o grupo etário. Esta revisão de literatura destaca a frequência da agenesia, especialmente em dentes permanentes como os incisivos laterais superiores e terceiros molares, enfatizando a importância da identificação precoce para o manejo adequado. Estudos sugerem que a evolução da dieta humana, da alimentação crua para uma dieta processada, pode ter influenciado a prevalência de anomalias dentárias, como a agenesia. A domesticação de plantas e a cocção de alimentos reduziram a pressão seletiva por um maior número de dentes, favorecendo indivíduos com menos dentes devido a mutações genéticas associadas ao desenvolvimento dental, como MSX1 e PAX9. Além disso, a modernização da indústria alimentícia, caracterizada pelo aumento do consumo de alimentos processados e ricos em açúcar, tem sido correlacionada ao aumento de problemas de saúde bucal, incluindo a agenesia dentária. A exposição a aditivos e contaminantes nos alimentos processados pode interferir no desenvolvimento dental, potencializando o risco de anomalias dentárias. Assim, a interação entre fatores evolutivos e mudanças na dieta moderna revela a complexidade da agenesia dentária e suas implicações para a saúde bucal.

Published: October 2024

A toxoplasmose é causada pelo protozoário Toxoplasma gondii, parasita intracelular obrigatório, coccídeo que infecta animais de sangue quente e humanos. Os felinos são considerados os únicos hospedeiros definitivos por liberarem formas infectantes e os demais hospedeiros são apenas intermediários. Atualmente os cães estão sendo estudados como potenciais sentinelas da contaminação tanto humana quanto ambiental. A grande maioria das infecções são subclínicas havendo um quadro de Toxoplasmose generalizada apenas em imunossupressão. A toxoplasmose clínica causa principalmente sinais inespecíficos que incluem diarreia, febre, vômitos, alterações respiratórias e nervosas como por exemplo tremores, ataxia, paresia, tetraparesia, convulsões, rigidez e fraqueza muscular e disfonia variando de acordo com o local da infecção. O diagnóstico antemortem pode ser realizado baseado na exclusão dos diagnósticos diferenciais, níveis elevados e crescentes de anticorpos, com a junção dos sinais clínicos e a melhora clínica do paciente após o início da terapia anti-Toxoplasma. No presente relato foi atendido um canino, macho, castrado há 3 meses, sem raça definida, com 6 anos de idade que apresentava marcha rígida, atáxica e parética em membros pélvicos. Propriocepção preservada nos quatro membros, porém tônus muscular diminuído. Possuía reflexo perineal e panículo preservados e sem alterações em nervos cranianos, mas esse quadro logo evoluiu para tetraparesia, ausência de diversos reflexos e ventroflexão de pescoço. O paciente possuía o hábito de ingerir fezes de outros animais principalmente de seu coabitante felino que possuía acesso irrestrito à rua. O tratamento medicamentoso instituído foi com sulfadiazina + trimetoprim onde já houve dos sinais clínicos e após resultado positivo do IgM e IgG para toxoplasmose iniciou-se a associação com Clindamicina. Com 28 dias de tratamento o paciente recebeu alta com remissão de todos os sinais clínicos e alterações hematológicas.

Published: October 2024

Em razão das dificuldades de se ensinar Genética para alunos do Ensino Médio, alguns métodos alternativos têm sido adotados para facilitar a abordagem do tema. Sendo assim, objetivou-se validar a eficiência de quatro jogos didáticos (bingo das ervilhas, dominó gênico, memória genética e seleção natural em plantas) em um projeto-piloto desenvolvido no ano de 2017 com alunos do 3° ano do Ensino Médio da Escola Estadual Eponina Soares dos Santos, em Sete Lagoas-MG. A eficiência dos jogos como recurso pedagógico foi validada por meio da análise quantitativa de um questionário em que os alunos respondiam se os jogos os subsidiaram na aprendizagem. Verificaram-se resultados favoráveis no processo de aprendizagem, uma vez que a maioria dos alunos respondeu de forma positiva aos questionários de percepção discente. Assim, concluiu-se que essa experiência-piloto poderá ser estendida para outras turmas e para outras escolas, visando a motivação dos alunos e o aprendizado de genética.

A folha de Flandres é altamente resistente, maleável e tem boa soldabilidade, é  facilmente reciclada, o que a torna ideal para a embalagem de alimentos e bebidas. No entanto, uma grande desvantagem é a sua suscetibilidade à corrosão. Em alimentos ácidos, a interação entre a embalagem e o alimento leva à dissolução de metais como o ferro e o estanho que compõem a embalagem. Neste estudo, a salmoura do milho verde enlatado foi caracterizado quanto ao seu valor de pH (6,3), grau Brix (5,0 oBrix), concentração de Cl- (1,2 g/L) e densidade (1,1 g/mL). Amostras das três partes da lata (tampa, corpo e fundo) com e sem verniz foram estudadas quanto à corrosão eletroquímica através de curvas de Tafel em diferentes condições de pH, Cl- e temperatura. Através da análise estatística também foi estudada a influência destes fatores na taxa de corrosão (CR) via planejamento fatorial 2^3 com triplicata no ponto central. O estudo mostrou que os fatores estudados tiveram uma influência significativa na CR apenas para a amostra sem verniz. O verniz foi caracterizado como uma resina epóxi fenólica de acordo com a reflectância total atenuada para medidas de espetroscopia de infravermelho com transformada de Fourier (FTIR/ATR). A eficiência da inibição da corrosão promovida pelo verniz foi confirmada pela comparação dos valores de energia de ativação para o processo de corrosão, que foram de 154,3 kJ/mol e 42,97 kJ/mol para as amostras com e sem verniz, respetivamente. Assim, neste trabalho, foram quantificados os principais elementos na corrosão da folha de Flandres, de forma a contribuir para a utilização deste importante tipo de embalagem.
Learning English Conversational skills with collaborative learning: A case in a Taiwanese University
Authors: Wang Chunying
Published: October 2024

Taiwanese students begin learning English in primary school, but most of them are not able to fluently communicate in English. The present study employs a collaborative learning activity in an experiment to investigate its influence on 106 Taiwanese non-English major freshmen’s learning situation for English speaking and listening. Data were collected by observing students’ learning behaviours in both the experimental and control groups for a term, their pre-test and post-test scores, and a questionnaire survey. From these observations, the experimental group participants transitioned to have more active learning behaviours than the control group by the end of the term. The statistical results show that studying with collaborative learning can promote learners’ communicative competence. Furthermore, all participants gave positive feedback on the course arrangement, but the experimental group participants indicated a significantly stronger attitude towards the collaboration experience. Having more opportunities to practice speaking and listening to English, the participants received the language more favourably after learning it using collaborative learning.
An experimental study on receiving Audio Descriptions in Iran
Authors: Sagha Javad
Published: October 2024

Despite the growing body of research on audience satisfaction, Audio Description (AD) in Iran is still in its early stages of scientific development. Given the non-professional nature of AD production for Persian films in Iran, this research aimed to determine whether the current AD services meet users' needs and satisfaction. This study is based on a questionnaire survey of 30 blind and partially sighted individuals. The results indicate that AD services in Iran are limited to movies, revealing a significant gap between supply and demand. AD in Iran faces several challenges, including low quality, a lack of specialists, and insufficient theoretical research. From the audience's perspective, common issues include inappropriate timing, unsuitable vocabulary, subjective judgments, premature disclosure of story elements, neglect of actors' characteristics, and a disregard for standard guidelines in favour of self-made norms in descriptions. However, the existing Persian AD does help the audience understand the film's storyline. Our experimental research shows that participants prefer objective AD with detailed descriptions.
Transforming Business with Robotic Process Automation
Authors: - Akshay Chandrachood
Published: October 2024

Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is the next level of business process automation where software-based robots (bots) are used to interact and perform the transactions and interactions that earlier human resources used to do through systems, data, files, and messages. This technology has found its way into many sectors, such as the financial sector, health sector, retail sector, and manufacturing sector, because of its efficiency and qualities for achieving organizational objectives. RPA offers a convenient opportunity for an employee to code or program bots for transactions, data manipulation, generation of responses, and interaction with systems, thus fostering faster development with less coding. The prospects of RPA include improved effectiveness of automation, easy savings, higher accuracy, versatility, meeting legal requirements, and staff satisfaction. Bots perform their task 24/7, and they help to increase the throughput and capability of an organization to handle more work without more employees. The success stories include various industries such as financial services, healthcare services, retail, and many more. However, some complexities include the selection of the process, the methods of managing change, the integration of the methods into the business, security, and maintenance of the processes. Indeed, as RPA combines with other technologies such as AI, IoT, and blockchain, its applicability expands as more sophisticated activities may occur and end-to-end automation is possible. The market for RPA is considered to be quite promising due to emerging necessities for efficiency and cost-saving measures. Future development of the technology for incorporation into more complex platforms suggests further advancement and specialization of application within the field of business operations, thus securing RPA as a strategic technology asset of today’s globalized economy.

Authors: - Manglien Gangte , - Yangkhomang Touthang
Published: October 2024

Caste has long played a pivotal role in shaping electoral behavior in India, significantly influencing political outcomes since independence. This paper examines the intricate relationship between caste and politics, tracing its roots to the colonial era and analyzing how caste-based political mobilization has evolved in contemporary times. The rise of caste-based political parties, such as the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP), Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), and Samajwadi Party (SP), has redefined the Indian electoral landscape. Additionally, the impact of caste identities on voting behavior, the role of coalition politics, and the use of social media in targeting caste groups are explored. While caste-based politics has empowered marginalized communities, it also poses challenges to governance and social cohesion. The paper concludes by reflecting on the future of caste in Indian electoral politics, emphasizing the need for more inclusive governance.
Protecting the identity of Rape Victims and the Exceptions to This Protection
Authors: - Md. Imran Wahab, IPS
Published: October 2024

Protecting the anonymity of rape victims is crucial for upholding their dignity and mental health. The Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (BNS), explicitly forbids revealing information that identifies victims of rape under Section 72(1), aiming to reduce their risk of trauma and societal stigma. Nonetheless, there are designated exceptions under Section 72(2), such as for investigative reasons or with the victim's approval, where disclosure may be permitted to balance the need for privacy with the pursuit of justice. Concerns arise regarding this section that permits law enforcement to disclose identities in "good faith," as it could lead to misuse. While revealing identities may facilitate investigations, it must be approached cautiously to prevent further harm to rape victims. This analysis evaluates the safeguards in place for protecting the identities of rape victims under the BNS while addressing the circumstances that allow exceptions, underscoring the necessity for enhanced protective measures in the form of oversight by senior police officers or the judiciary. However, distinguishing unintentional errors from intentional breaches of a rape victim's identity is essential for protecting a police officer committing mistake in good faith.

It is essential for academic excellence in engineering, as it provides access to a vast repository of knowledge, advanced technical content, and enables students to understand complex concepts, participate in discussions, and perform well in exams. English also serves as a platform for interaction and collaboration, allowing students to share ideas, collaborate on projects, and engage in academic discussions. This exchange of knowledge enhances academic standards and fosters a collaborative learning environment. Effective communication in English prepares students for professional settings where they need to articulate their ideas clearly and work with peers from diverse linguistic backgrounds. The global nature of engineering careers also makes English indispensable; as Indian graduates often work in international environments or with multinational teams. Proficiency in English enables them to interact effectively with colleagues, present their work, and contribute to global projects, enhancing their career prospects and professional growth.

Authors: Mutie Hellen Mwende , Kiruthu Felix
Published: October 2024

Since the beginning of devolution of health sector in Kenya in 2013, there have been several concerns regarding heath care service delivery ineffectiveness, which have been attributed to strained ties between the national and county governments. There have been issues with service delivery and medical supply shortages in Nairobi City County's healthcare sector. This study sought to investigate how intergovernmental interactions have affected healthcare in in Nairobi City County. Specifically, the study examined how intergovernmental relations affect the financial allocation for the sector. The study was anchored on resource-based theory.  A descriptive research design was employed involving a census for all the 7 administrators working at level 4 and level 5 health facilities in Nairobi City County as well as 78 employees working in the health department of Nairobi City County Government, constituted the sample population. Descriptive analysis was done using the standard deviation and the mean while inferential analysis was done using regression, F-test and ANOVA. The analyzed data was provided as frequency tables, percentages, and charts. Before the data collection, respondents were asked to provide informed consent, and anonymity and secrecy were assured to boost the response rate. The most critical relationship was between intergovernmental relations and financial resource allocation for the healthcare sector in Nairobi City County accounting to 39.4%. The findings suggested that in order to guarantee that financial resources are allocated appropriately, the national and the county government should work to enhance intergovernmental ties. This also helps in ensuring timely release of financial resources to health facilities by the national government. The study recommends that the financial allocation for healthcare should be enhanced so as to improve service delivery. There is also need to enhance own source revenue for the City County so as supplement the shareable revenue from the national government, which collectively will increase the finances available for utilisation in the healthcare sector
ВИЩА ОСВІТА В УМОВАХ ВІДНОВЛЕННЯ УКРАЇНИ ВІД НАСЛІДКІВ ВІЙНИ: ЯКОЮ МАЄ БУТИ СТРАТЕГІЯ?
Authors: Vitrenko Yurii
Published: October 2024

У статті на основі аналізу Звіту про хід реалізації у 2022-2023 роках «Стратегії розвитку вищої освіти в Україні на 2022-2032 роки», розміщеного на сайті МОН, констатується, що із загальної кількості затверджених заходів — 51, загальне виконання склало: вико-нано — 8 (16 %); виконується (без конкретизації стану виконання) — 20 (39 %); відтерміновано (без посилання на нормативно-правові акти якими дозволено відтермінування) — 23 (45 %). Результати виконання встановлених Стратегією заходів дали автору підстави для висновку, що їх положення об’єктивно втратили актуальність, як і формулювання стратегічних цілей, визначених до війни з рф. У цьому зв’язку автор висловлює свою незгоду з позицією МОН України, сформульованою в матеріалі Звіту, що «Цілі та завдання Стратегії є детальною дорожньою картою для відбудови та продовження реформування системи вищої освіти в післявоєнний період…». На переконання автора, цілі та завдання Стратегії, затверджені за день до початку війни з рф, об’єктивно не можуть бути «…детальною дорожньою картою для відбудови та продовження реформування системи вищої освіти в післявоєнний період…». Пропонується визнати розпорядження Кабінету Міністрів України, яким схвалено Стратегію, таким, що втратило чинність, та розробити та затвердити нову Стратегію розвитку вищої освіти України в контексті відновлення України від наслідків війни та на шляху до європейської інтеграції на 2025-2035 роки. Автором запропоновано основні міжнародні та національні інститути, положення яких, на думку автора, мають бути обов’язково враховані в новій Стратегії, сформульовані основні нагальні та очікувані проблеми, розв’язання яких має бути передбачено; стратегічні цілі нової Стратегії та рекомендації до виконання.

Introduction: The inadequate knowledge is the main obstacle of provision of palliative care. This study attempted to examine the association between related factors and knowledge about palliative care for patients with terminal cancer among nursing students in Bangkok, Thailand.
Methods: This study was cross-sectional, conducted in June 2024 at Saint Louis College, Bangkok, Thailand. Data were collected through self-administered questionnaires measuring sociodemographic characteristics. We employed the Palliative Care Quiz for Nursing (PCQN) and the Frommelt Attitude Toward Care of the Dying (FATCOD), form B. Descriptive statistics and multiple linear regression were selected to use for analysis.
Results: The participants were 111 third-year nursing students. The mean score of knowledge about palliative care for patients with terminal cancer was 8.52 (SD = 1.84. The significant predictors of knowledge about palliative care for patient with terminal cancer were experience of losing close relatives or beloved ones from cancer within 1 year (β = 1.083, p < 0.05), and attitude toward dying (β = 0.041, p < 0.05).
Conclusion: This study highlights that nursing students had insufficient palliative care knowledge for patient with end-stage cancer. These findings implies that better attitude toward caring for end-of-life patient associated with improved palliative care knowledge. Therefore, to develop educational program of palliative care for nursing students with psychological and spiritual care training should be embedded in the program for optimum palliative care for patients with terminal cancer.

The legal status of the First Deputy Speaker of the Iraqi Council of Representatives, or as it is called (member of the Presidency), is considered one of the essential sovereign positions in the structure of the government system due to its impact on decision-making, whether in the legislative, administrative or even political aspects. Despite this, the texts regulating this position were ambiguous and unclear, in addition to the lack of a unified direction in the directions of the Federal Supreme Court in this direction. Also, defining the tasks and duties of the First Deputy Speaker of the Council of Representatives is essential, especially in cases where the presence of the president is impossible, as he is the one who replaces him in this case. The lack of studies in this aspect also made us search for it to clarify the tasks and duties of this crucial sovereign position. Therefore, we studied the legal status of the First Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives in terms of the conditions for nomination and election and his role in the legislative and administrative aspects of the House of Representatives. Then, we provided a set of results and recommendations that will benefit researchers in the field of specialization.
