O Eu enunciado como (re) existência na cidade
Authors: CARRIL LOURDES DE FATIMA BEZERRA , Da Silva Alan Pereira
Published: September 2023

O fim da escravidão não significou a integração do negro em relações democráticas liberais; pelo contrário, a desigualdade racial tornou-se o ethos social, que se atualiza em tempos neoliberais. A construção do Ideal de Eu pautado na branquitude constitui para os afro-brasileiros um grande desafio. A colonialidade do poder fundamenta o racismo no mundo ocidental, havendo a necessidade de descolonizar as práticas e os currículos escolares.  Este artigo busca refletir sobre o livro Quarto de Despejo – Diário de uma favelada, de Carolina de Jesus e o rap Negro Drama, dos Racionais MCs, em diálogo com a Geografia Crítica.   Estes temas são parte das pesquisas realizadas numa geografia das desigualdades raciais. Parte-se do método dialético para pensar as potencialidades de uma educação libertadora, junto à juventude periférica, como base à enunciação do Eu como (re) existência.
Territórios juvenis negros: sentidos das experiências em um baile funk no aglomerado da Serra/BH
Authors: Nonato Luisa Cristina , Reis Juliana Batista dos
Published: September 2023

O artigo apresenta reflexões sobre as relações entre juventudes e territórios, a partir de uma etnografia realizada em um baile funk no Aglomerado da Serra, a maior favela de Belo Horizonte/MG. Os bailes funk podem ser compreendidos como uma expressão das culturas juvenis, protagonizados especialmente por jovens negras/os e pobres. Assim, o artigo analisa a pluralidade de experiências de jovens no território do baile e as relações étnico-raciais, de gênero e sexualidade nessa dinâmica de sociabilidade juvenil. Portanto, os conceitos como território e territorialidades, sob o ponto de vista da ciência geográfica são categorias analíticas relevantes. Algumas ruas, becos e praças são territórios importantes para se entender a espacialidade do baile. A pesquisa desvelou a importância do baile funk como experiência juvenil e uma possibilidade de lazer para jovens negras/os e pobres.

Desafiando a resistência antimicrobiana: o potencial terapêutico da fagoterapia
Authors: Santos Bruna Espiño dos
Published: September 2023

A utilização de vírus como nossos aliados pode causar certa apreensão, especialmente após a experiência trágica vivida durante a pandemia de COVID-19. No entanto, um diferente problema de saúde coletiva tem permanecido invisível aos olhos da população: a resistência antimicrobiana (RAM). Atualmente, a RAM tem se tornado uma crescente ameaça à saúde pública global, afetando seres humanos, animais e vegetais. O uso indiscriminado de antibióticos tem intensificado esse problema, levando ao crescente do número de mortes por infecções bacterianas – uma cifra que se aproxima da combinação de óbitos por HIV e malária [1]. Desse modo, a comunidade científica tem dado grande ênfase ao desenvolvimento de novos tratamentos eficazes, como é o caso da utilização de bacteriófagos.

Published: September 2023

A modelagem de proteínas é um desafio da biologia molecular que ficou em aberto por mais de 50 anos. Recentemente, estratégias computacionais obtiveram bastante sucesso em modelar tridimensionalmente a estrutura de macromoléculas. O AlphaFold é um software que utiliza aprendizado profundo para predizer estruturas de proteínas. Entretanto, sua instalação e uso ainda pode ser complexo para boa parte dos potenciais usuários. Em 2022, Milot Mirdita e colaboradores propuseram a ferramenta ColabFold: um programa rápido e fácil de usar para a previsão de estruturas de proteínas e complexos, que funciona por meio de um navegador de internet. Neste artigo, você irá conhecer um pouco das funcionalidades do ColabFold. A ferramenta está disponível em: https://colab.research.google.com/github/sokrypton/ColabFold/blob/main/AlphaFold2.ipynb.
AlphaFold 2: revolucionando a modelagem de estruturas 3D de macromoléculas
Authors: Paixão Vivian Morais , Puelles Angie Atoche , Moreira Eduardo Utsch Madureira , Bastos Luana Luiza , de Melo-Minardi Raquel Cardoso
Published: September 2023

Desenvolvido pela DeepMind em 2020, o AlphaFold é uma inovadora ferramenta de inteligência artificial que surgiu na CASP14, uma competição de predição de estruturas proteicas. À época, ele foi apresentado como uma solução para o desafiante problema do enovelamento de proteínas. Esse problema envolve a compreensão de como uma sequência de aminoácidos se converte em uma estrutura tridimensional. Uma proteína não enovelada vai mudando de conformação, diminuindo a entropia até chegar no estado de menor energia, em que ela estará em seu estado nativo. O “paradoxo de Levinthal” destaca a complexidade desse processo, sugerindo que, embora uma proteína possa se dobrar em milissegundos, o tempo necessário para calcular todas as estruturas possíveis é maior do que a idade do universo conhecido. Embora o AlphaFold não tenha resolvido completamente esse desafio, ele marcou um avanço significativo ao prever com precisão as estruturas proteicas a partir de sequências primárias, revolucionando a pesquisa em biologia. Neste artigo, nossa intenção será elucidar o processo pelo qual esse sistema constrói as estruturas tridimensionais, abordando também aulas práticas sobre modelagem molecular, utilizando o AlphaFold como ferramenta central em nossos experimentos. Com isso, esperamos proporcionar uma compreensão mais aprofundada das capacidades dessa tecnologia e seu potencial impacto no avanço da pesquisa em bioinformática e biologia molecular.

Avaliar o estado nutricional em crianças com autismo é um desafio para os profissionais da saúde, uma vez que essa população apresenta dificuldades de comunicação e comportamentais que podem interferir na realização de exames e na coleta de dados. No entanto, essa avaliação é crucial, uma vez que crianças com autismo estão sujeitas a uma maior prevalência de desnutrição e deficiências de vitaminas e minerais.Neste artigo científico, foram revisados estudos que abordaram as principais dificuldades e recomendações para a avaliação do estado nutricional em crianças com autismo. O primeiro desafio encontrado é a coleta de dados antropométricos, como peso e altura, uma vez que muitas dessas crianças apresentam comportamentos restritivos alimentares e podem recusar-se a serem medidos.Outro desafio é a avaliação da ingestão alimentar, uma vez que crianças com autismo tendem a ter dietas restritas e seletivas. Nesse sentido, é recomendado que seja realizada uma avaliação ampla da ingestão, observando-se a variedade e a quantidade de alimentos ingeridos, bem como possíveis deficiências nutricionais específicas.Além disso, é importante considerar as características individuais de cada criança, como idade, sexo e nível de comprometimento do autismo, na interpretação dos resultados da avaliação nutricional. Essas características podem influenciar nas necessidades nutricionais e no padrão alimentar de cada indivíduo.Em relação às recomendações, é fundamental que os profissionais da saúde estejam familiarizados com as características comportamentais das crianças com autismo, a fim de estabelecer uma relação de confiança e facilitar a avaliação nutricional. Além disso, é essencial que haja uma abordagem multidisciplinar, envolvendo nutricionistas, médicos, terapeutas ocupacionais e fonoaudiólogos, para garantir uma avaliação completa e precisa.Em conclusão, a avaliação do estado nutricional em crianças com autismo apresenta desafios específicos devido às características comportamentais dessa população. No entanto, é fundamental que essa avaliação seja realizada, a fim de identificar possíveis deficiências nutricionais e fornecer intervenções adequadas para melhorar a saúde e qualidade de vida dessas crianças.

Novel MHC BLB2 gene polymorphism and its association with IgY concentration and Newcastle disease antibody titer in IPB-D2 chickens
Authors: Lestari Dwi , Murtini Sri , Ulupi Niken , Gunawan Asep , Sumantri Cece
Published: September 2023

Abstract. This study aimed to identify the polymorphism of the B Locus Beta 2
(BLB2) gene and its association with immunoglobulin Y (IgY) concentration and
Newcastle disease (ND) antibody titer; we analyzed BLB2 gene expression in
different categories of ND antibody titers in IPB-D2 chickens. The total
sample used was 100 IPB-D2 chickens. Blood samples were collected at 21
weeks old for an ELISA (enzyme-linked immunoassay) test, an HI (hemagglutination inhibition) test, and genotyping. The method for BLB2
polymorphism was Sanger sequencing. Analysis of BLB2 gene expression was performed using
the cecal tonsil tissue of IPB-D2 chickens. Polymorphism data were analyzed
using SNPstats and DNAsp (DNA Sequence Polymorphism) software. The association of the single-nucleotide
polymorphisms (SNPs) with IgY concentration and ND antibody titer was
analyzed using SAS software (version 9.2). The genotype mean values were compared by means of a
T test. The relative mRNA expression analysis was performed using a quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The results
showed that 13 SNPs were found in exon 2 and exon 3 in the BLB2 gene. As many as 4
out of the 13 SNPs were associated with IgY concentration. As many as 9 out the 13
SNPs may have changed amino acids. The ΔCt value showed that the
expression of the BLB2 gene in IPB-D2 chickens with high ND antibody titers is
higher than IPB-D2 chickens with low ND antibody titers. In conclusion, the AA
genotype of g.458 T > A was associated with high IgY concentrations,
and the BLB2 gene presented with a high expression in IPB-D2 chickens with high ND antibody
titers.
Situated sites of migration control: Swiss deportation practices and their relational materiality in prisons, hospitals, and airports
Authors: Borrelli Lisa Marie
Published: September 2023

Abstract. Deportation is often studied in the context of research into the
administration, enforcement, and control of immigration, with researchers
highlighting the violent effect on deportees and studying the various actors involved in the deportation process. This contribution adds to the growing literature on deportation infrastructures by emphasizing the inseparability of deportation procedures from the specific sites in which they unfold, as well as highlighting the analytical interest and political agency of such spaces. My socio-material approach applies a rather classical understanding of infrastructure, asking what three specific deportation sites – prisons, hospitals, and airports – can tell us about deportation procedures as a technology of immigration enforcement. Using Switzerland as a case study, this paper analyses deportation procedures, including the role of human and non-human actors, paying particular attention to the situatedness and relationality of deportation infrastructures. The socio-material analysis of the architecture of the three sites under discussion ultimately exposes deportation as violent statecraft.
Uncertainty in three dimensions: the challenges of communicating probabilistic flood forecast maps
Authors: Jean Valérie , Boucher Marie-Amélie , Frini Anissa , Roussel Dominic
Published: September 2023

Abstract. Real-time operational flood forecasting most often concentrates on issuing streamflow predictions at specific points along the rivers of a watershed. However, we are now witnessing an increasing number of studies aimed at also including flood mapping as part of the forecasting system. While this additional new information (flood extent, depth, velocity, etc.) can potentially be useful for decision-makers, it could also be overwhelming. This is especially true for probabilistic and ensemble forecasting systems. While ensemble streamflow forecasts for a given point in space can be visualized relatively easily, the visualization and communication of probabilistic forecasts for water depth and extent pose additional challenges. Confusion typically arises from too much information, counterintuitive interpretation, or simply too much complexity in the representation of the forecast. The communication and visualization of probabilistic streamflow forecasts has been studied in the past, but this is not the case for the probabilistic flood forecast map, which is still an emerging product. In this paper, we synthesize the results of a large-scale survey (28 government representatives, 52 municipalities, 9 organizations, and 38 citizens and farmers, for a total of 140 people) regarding the users' preferences in terms of visualizing probabilistic flood forecasts over an entire river reach. The survey was performed through interviews, during which the interviewees were asked about their needs in terms of hydrological forecasting. We also presented the interviewees with four prototypes representing alternative visualizations of the same probabilistic forecast in order to understand their preferences in terms of colour maps, wording, and the representation of uncertainty. Our results highlight several issues related to the understanding of probabilities in the specific context of visualizing forecasted flood maps. We propose several suggestions for visualizing probabilistic flood maps and also describe potential adaptations for different categories of end users. This study is the first to investigate the visualization of probabilistic flood maps, which are gaining popularity. Given that the interview questions were not tied to a specific geographical location, our findings are applicable outside of the study area and, therefore, to other operational centres interested in providing probabilistic flood forecast maps to decision-making organizations and citizens.
Evaluating altimetry-derived surface currents on the south Greenland shelf with surface drifters
Authors: Coquereau Arthur , Foukal Nicholas P.
Published: September 2023

Abstract. The pathways and fate of freshwater in the East Greenland Coastal Current (EGCC) are crucial to the climate system. The EGCC transports large amounts of freshwater in close proximity to sites of deep open-ocean convection in the Labrador and Irminger seas. Many studies have attempted to analyze this system from models and various observational platforms, but the modeling results largely disagree with one another, and observations are limited due to the harsh conditions typical of the region. Altimetry-derived surface currents, constructed from remote-sensing observations and applying geostrophic equations, provide a continuous observational data set beginning in 1993. However, these products have historically encountered difficulties in coastal regions, and thus their validity must be checked. In this work, we use a comprehensive methodology to compare these Eulerian data to a Lagrangian data set of 34 surface drifter trajectories and demonstrate that the altimetry-derived surface currents are surprisingly capable of recovering the spatial structure of the flow field on the south Greenland shelf and can mimic the Lagrangian nature of the flow as observed from surface drifters.
Mineralogical and elemental geochemical characteristics of Taodonggou Group mudstone in the Taibei Sag, Turpan–Hami Basin: implication for its formation mechanism
Authors: Miao Huan , Guo Jianying , Wang Yanbin , Jiang Zhenxue , Zhang Chengju , Li Chuanming
Published: September 2023

Abstract. Organic matter types in the Taodonggou Group mudstone exhibit
significant differences with depth. In order to understand the formation
mechanism of this special phenomenon, we analyzed the mineralogy and
geochemistry of the mudstone, as well as the source rocks, depositional
environment, and depositional processes of the Taodonggou Group. Based on
this, we have gained the following insights. (1) The Taodonggou Group
mudstone was deposited in an intermediate-depth or deep, dysoxic,
freshwater–brackish lake environment under warm and humid paleoclimatic
conditions. The input of terrestrial debris was stable, but the
sedimentation rate was slow. In addition, the sedimentation in the middle
stage was influenced by hydrothermal activities, and the changes in the
depositional environment corresponded to variations in organic matter types.
(2) The source rocks of the Taodonggou Group mudstone are mainly andesitic
and feldspathic volcanic rocks. Sediment sorting and recycling were weak,
and hydrocarbon source information was well preserved. The tectonic
background of the source area was a continental island arc and an oceanic
island arc. Furthermore, changes in the provenance of the Taodonggou Group
also had a significant impact on the variations in organic matter types. (3) The sedimentation of the Taodonggou Group involved both traction and gravity
flows. The variations in source area, depositional environment, and
depositional processes during different depositional periods led to changes
in the organic matter types of the Taodonggou mudstone. (4) Based on the
depositional environment, provenance, and depositional processes, the
sedimentation of the Taodonggou Group can be divided into three stages. In
the early stages, the sedimentation center was in the Bogda area. At this
time, the Bogda Mountain region was not exposed, and the depositional
processes inherited the characteristics of early Permian gravity flow
sedimentation, resulting in the widespread deposition of a series of
high-quality Type III source rocks in the basin. In the middle stage of the
Taodonggou Group sedimentation, the sedimentation center gradually migrated
to the Taibei Sag. During this period, the Bogda Mountain region experienced
uplift and hydrothermal activity, and the depositional processes gradually
transitioned to traction flows, resulting in the widespread deposition of a
series of Type II source rocks in the basin. In the late stage of the
Taodonggou Group, the uplift of the Bogda Mountain region ceased, and the
sedimentation center completely shifted to the Taibei Sag. Meanwhile, under
the influence of gravity flows, the organic matter types of the Taodonggou
mudstone changed to Type III.
New estimates of pan-Arctic sea ice–atmosphere neutral drag coefficients from ICESat-2 elevation data
Authors: Mchedlishvili Alexander , Lüpkes Christof , Petty Alek , Tsamados Michel , Spreen Gunnar
Published: September 2023

Abstract. The effect that sea ice topography has on the momentum transfer between ice and atmosphere is not fully quantified due to the vast extent of the Arctic and limitations of current measurement techniques. Here we present a method to estimate pan-Arctic momentum transfer via a parameterization that links sea ice–atmosphere form drag coefficients with surface feature height and spacing. We measure these sea ice surface feature parameters using the Ice, Cloud and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2). Though ICESat-2 is unable to resolve as well as airborne surveys, it has a higher along-track spatial resolution than other contemporary altimeter satellites. As some narrow obstacles are effectively smoothed out by the ICESat-2 ATL07 spatial resolution, we use near-coincident high-resolution Airborne Topographic Mapper (ATM) elevation data from NASA's Operation IceBridge (OIB) mission to scale up the regional ICESat-2 drag estimates. By also incorporating drag due to open water, floe edges and sea ice skin drag, we produced a time series of average total pan-Arctic neutral atmospheric drag coefficient estimates from November 2018 to May 2022. Here we have observed its temporal evolution to be unique and not directly tied to sea ice extent. By also mapping 3-month aggregates for the years 2019, 2020 and 2021 for better regional analysis, we found the thick multiyear ice area directly north of the Canadian Archipelago and Greenland to be consistently above 2.0×10-3, while most of the multiyear ice portion of the Arctic is typically around ∼1.5×10-3.
Physiological and Biochemical Adaptations to a Sport-Specific Sprint Interval Training in Male Basketball Athletes
Authors: Song Tao , Jilikeha Jilikeha , Deng Yujie
Published: September 2023

The present study compared the effects of incorporating traditional sprint interval training (SIT) or basketball-specific SIT (SSIT) into typical off-season training of male basketball players. Adaptations to and effect size (EF) of interventions on aerobic fitness [evaluated using Yo-Yo intermittent recovery test level-1 (Yo-Yo IR1)], change of direction [T-test (TT) and Illinois agility test (IAT)], vertical jump (VJ), standing long jump (SLJ), linear speed, maximal strength [one repetition maximum test in leg press (1RMLP)], and hormonal status were examined. Male athletes (age = 25.7 ± 2.0 years; height = 188.1 ± 7.9 cm; body mass = 85.9 ± 8.0 kg) were randomly assigned to one of three groups of SIT (n = 10): three sets of 10 × 15 sec all-out intervals with 1:1 recovery between bouts and a 3-min recovery between sets; SSIT (n = 10): the same intervals as SIT + basketball-specific ball drills while running; and CON (n = 10): two sessions per week of regular basketball technical and tactical drills. SIT and SSIT resulted in significant changes compared with baseline in maximal oxygen uptake (4.9%, ES = 2.22 vs. 6%, ES = 2.57), TT (-1.8%, ES =-0.46 vs. -2.7%, ES = -1.14), IAT (-4.5%, ES = -2.01 vs. -5.4%, ES = -1.93), VJ (7.5%, ES = 0.58 vs. 12%, ES = 0.95), linear sprint time (-2.9%, ES = -0.32 vs. -4.3%, ES = -0.69), Yo-Yo IR1 (18.5%, ES = 2.19 vs. 23.7%, ES = 2.56), serum testosterone (28%, ES = 1.52 vs. 29.7%, ES = 1.59), and cortisol (-6.53%, ES = -0.37 vs. -12.06%, ES = -0.64). Incorporating SIT and SSIT into typical off-season basketball training triggers adaptive mechanisms that enhance aerobic and anaerobic performance in male basketball players. The effect size values indicate more significant effects of SSIT than SIT in most physiological and sport-specific adaptations. Such a superior effect could be attributed to the more basketball-specific movement pattern of the SSIT. Such interventions can be used by the coaches and athletes for designing the training load and for better training adaptations throughout the training seasons and competition periods.

Abstract In the information age, the phenomenon of globalization has affected educational programs. It has become important to educate global-minded participants in schools. Changes in science and technology affect human life and education, which is the process of human education. Educational systems that are under the influence of many economic, social and cultural conditions are facing changes. The act of learning, which gains continuity throughout life by replacing traditional learning processes with information and communication technologies support environments, eliminates the need for people to be in a fixed environment to achieve this. It is aimed to Decouple the educational programs with the educational projects carried out between the universities of the member states of the European Community and to make education more qualified. Thanks to the academic networks in the European Union, the student-teacher relationship participating in the education and learning process is being carried to interactive multi-media. At this stage, information measurement and evaluation systems are being designed to test the knowledge acquired after learning, the validity and reliability of which are supported by information technologies. Individuals now believe that they save time by moving the physical mobility they perform for learning and educational purposes to a virtual environment and that they have a more effective and interactive learning and evaluation experience. Lingua (Language Learning and Teaching) Program; It is one of the eight sub-programs of Socrates, the EU General Education Program, which aims to teach the languages spoken in the member states of the Community as a foreign language to the citizens of the European countries that are members of these programs. The European Commission has developed different ways and methods to improve foreign language learning. e-Europe launched an initiative in 2000 with the name of using communication and information technologies such as the Internet and the web in all sectors with a decision taken by a commission. Thus, it is planned to establish a virtual higher education network between universities, open and distance education institutions by the end of Dec 2020. The new expectations that have emerged about the widespread use of media tools in education in Europe have turned into an inevitable, low-cost and socially necessary paradigm within the scope of the information society.

Since its first implementation, minimally invasive cardiac surgery has become more and more popular among surgeons. By avoiding a complete opening of the sternum, this surgery is traditionally associated with a faster recovery, less surgical pain and less postoperative bleeding and transfusions. With its growing popularity, the need for specifically designed surgical instrumentation is evident. Since 2008, the detachable-branch Glauber clamp (Cardiovision-Trytech, Tokyo, Japan) has been used to facilitate aortic cross-clamp during minimally invasive cardiac surgery, to optimize the intraoperative visualization field without the need for adjunctive incisions of the thorax. It has been specifically developed for limited single-access minimally invasive valve surgery. The clamp is introduced through the main access incision (mini-sternotomy or mini thoracotomy) by means of a specifically designed delivery system, which is subsequently removed, leaving inside the thorax only the detachable closed branches on the aorta. Since its first implementation, the clamp has been used in numerous patients at several cardiac surgery centers worldwide. Over the years, attempts have been made to improve its ergonomics and enhance its performance. The G2 detachable-branch Glauber clamp (USB Medical, Hatboro, PA, USA) occupies a smaller space inside the thorax, has a simplified gripping mechanism and comes with detachable arms that enhance versatility with up to 10 possible clamp configurations. This article describes the characteristics of detachable-branch aortic clamps and compares them to other aortic cross-clamps that are currently available for minimally invasive cardiac surgery.

Soft tissue reinforcement focuses on medical grafts that are designed to support and regenerate soft tissue under or near suture lines. Soft tissue is defined as areas of similarly specialized cells that function to connect, support, and surround other structures and organs of the body. These tissues include skin, subcutaneous tissue, fascia, ligaments, tendons, fibrous tissues, fat, synovial membranes, and muscle. Most of the implantable devices used for this purpose are made of collagen, the most abundant protein in mammals and a key component of the extracellular matrix of soft tissues that allows for tissue repair. For suture line reinforcement, exogenous collagen from various sources is implanted under or in continuity with the suture line to allow for increased strength and better healing. First introduced in the field of breast reconstruction, this practice is now also used in hernia repair, dural repair, vaginal slings, amputation reinforcement, tendon repair reinforcement, and even dental soft tissue regeneration.

This research aim was to find out the correlation between students’ interest and their English learning achievement. The research question was “Is there any significant correlation between students’ interest and their English learning achievement?” This research applied correlational method. The subjects was the tenth grade students of SMKN 5 Makassar. The data was collected through questionnaire and English score documentation. In analyzed the data, the researcher used quantitative data analysis. The result of data analysis showed that there is positive significant correlation between students’ Interest and their English learning achievement at tenth grade students of SMKN 5 Makassar. This was proved by the coefficience correlation score rcount 0,814 > rtable  0,344 in 5% significant degree. Based on a correlational table, the correlation index (rxy = 0,814) is in interval 0.70 – 0.90, this means that the correlation belongs to “strong correlation”. Therefore, the higher the tenth grade students’ interest in SMKN 5 Makassar the higher their English learning achievement will be.

This research was a quasy experiment which aims to find out the comparison between the use of google classroom media on motivation and learning outcomes in history in the Hindu-Buddhist kingdom of class X students at SMA Negeri 3 Makassar. The research population was all class X students at SMA Negeri 3 Makassar for the academic year 2022/2023 which consisted of 10 classes with a total of 364 students. The selection of the research sample was carried out in a random class manner, so that class X-2 was obtained as the experimental group 1 using google classroom media and class X-8 as the control group without using google classroom media. This research was conducted for 8 hours of lessons (2 meetings for material) and 2 meetings for evaluation. Measuring learning motivation with a questionnaire and learning outcomes was done by giving a multiple-choice test of learning outcomes, included the pretest (students' initial learning outcomes test) and posttest (students' final learning outcomes test). The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and inferentially testing the hypothesis using covariance analysis with a significance level of 0.05. Statistical results of covariance analysis for student motivation (α = 0.05) showed a sig (2-tailed) value of 0.02 <α (0.05) then H0 was rejected and H1 was accepted, while the statistical results of covariance analysis for student learning outcomes (α = 0.05) indicates a sig (2-tailed) value of 0.039 < α = 0.05, then H0 is rejected and H1 was accepted. The assessment of increased motivation and learning outcomes was carried out using N-Gain, where the increase was included in the high category in the experimental class. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that there was an application of the Google classroom platform where there was an increase in motivation and learning outcomes in history on Hindu-Buddhist work material for class X students at SMA Negeri 3 Makassar.

Purpose: Simulation-enhanced interprofessional education (Sim-IPE) has been shown in cross-sectional studies to be beneficial in improving students’ perceptions of interprofessional teamwork and collaboration. However, there is limited literature regarding the progression of these perceptions over time. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the influence of multiple sim-IPE embedded across a physical therapy education program on student perceptions of collaborative patient care over a 2-year period.
Methods: A sample of convenience of students in an entry-level Doctor of Physical Therapy program (n = 94) was utilized. Students were placed in one of three groups with students completing either three sim-IPE experiences across the first 2 years of the program (n = 57), one simulation at the beginning of the program (n = 17), or one experience prior to their second full-time clinical experience (n = 20). The Interprofessional Socialization and Values Scale-21 (ISVS-21) was used to assess student perceptions of interprofessional collaboration. Scores across the program were analyzed using a Friedman analysis with a post hoc Wilcoxon matched pairs test. To assess the influence of maturation on student perceptions, performance on the ISVS-21 for students completing three experiences was compared with students completing one sim-IPE experience within the program.
Results: Overall, scores on the ISVS-21 demonstrated a statistically significant improvement across the three simulations occurring within the program (P < 0.001). Furthermore, students completing three sim-IPE experiences demonstrated statistically significantly higher scores on the ISVS-21 compared to students completing just one experience, regardless of the placement of the experience within the program.
Conclusion: Multiple sim-IPE performed across a professional education program may be an effective learning strategy to influence perceptions of interprofessional collaboration. Further research is needed to determine the number and placement of simulations for optimal preparation for interprofessional practice.

Introducción: la histoplasmosis es una micosis endémica de distribución mundial. Constituye un serio problema en huéspedes inmunocomprometidos en los que desarrolla una enfermedad grave y rápidamente progresiva. En estos pacientes, la enfermedad se presenta como forma diseminada. El compromiso aislado del sistema nervioso central constituye una forma extremadamente rara de la misma en individuos tanto inmunocompetentes como inmunodeprimidos.Caso clínico: paciente VIH-sida, VHC reactiva, con histoplasmosis cerebral y enfermedad diseminada por Citomegalovirus, no era adherente al TARV. Su cuadro clínico fue el de una gastroenterocolitis con lesiones cutáneas polimorfas, síntomas generales y descompensación clínica progresiva. Presentó durante su evolución neutropenia crítica y deterioro del sensorio y falleció tras una internación prolongada.Conclusiones: la histoplasmosis diseminada debe ser planteada entre los diagnósticos diferenciales de los pacientes con sida y síntomas constitucionales. A pesar de su rareza, el compromiso del sistema nervioso aislado junto con las dificultades que implica su diagnóstico, debe ser considerado en nuestro medio en los pacientes inmunodeprimidos, ya que su identificación y tratamiento tempranos se asocian a mejor pronóstico.
