Authors: Silva de Souza Suzinete , Marinho dos Santos Viviane
Published: October 2024

Este artigo tem como objetivo investigar o impacto das infecções sexualmente transmissíveis (ISTs) na saúde dos adolescentes, abordando a necessidade urgente de educação sexual eficaz e a atuação do farmacêutico na prevenção e orientação. Através de uma revisão da literatura, a pesquisa foi conduzida nas fontes de informação Scielo (Scientific Eletronic Library Online), MEDLINE/Pubmed, Google Scholar e portal do SINAN (Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação), para quantificar os casos de infecções sexualmente transmissíveis em adolescentes, a partir dos termos: infecções sexualmente transmissíveis, saúde dos adolescentes, automedicação e orientação farmacêutica. Os resultados mostram que a falta de comunicação sobre sexualidade contribui para comportamentos de risco, destacando a importância do diálogo aberto entre pais, educadores e adolescentes. O farmacêutico emerge como um profissional fundamental, capaz de oferecer informações claras e criar um ambiente acolhedor para discussões sobre saúde sexual, promovendo a adesão a medidas preventivas e tratamentos. Conclui-se que a educação sexual nas escolas e a orientação farmacêutica são essenciais para a redução das ISTs e a promoção do bem-estar dos adolescentes.

A atividade física é amplamente estudada por seu papel na modulação da ansiedade e na promoção do bem-estar psicológico, especialmente entre estudantes de medicina, que frequentemente enfrentam altas demandas acadêmicas e estresse. Este artigo tem como objetivo revisar a literatura disponível, com ênfase em artigos extraídos de bases de dados como PubMed e SciELO, que evidenciam os mecanismos neurobiológicos subjacentes aos efeitos benéficos do exercício físico na saúde mental.
A prática regular de exercícios físicos induz a liberação de neurotransmissores e de hormônios, como endorfinas, serotonina e norepinefrina, que estão associados à regulação do humor e à redução dos sintomas de ansiedade. Estudos demonstram que a atividade física não apenas melhora a cognição e a concentração, mas também atua como um modulador do estresse, promovendo uma resposta adaptativa ao desafio emocional. A literatura sugere que a atividade física pode ser um fator atenuante eficaz da ansiedade, especialmente em populações vulneráveis, como os estudantes de medicina, que apresentam uma prevalência elevada de transtornos de ansiedade.
Além dos exercícios aeróbicos, a prática de atividades anaeróbicas, como o treinamento de resistência, é particularmente eficaz na promoção do bem-estar psicológico. Pesquisas indicam que a adoção de um regime de pelo menos 150 minutos de exercício físico semanal resulta em melhorias significativas na saúde mental, favorecendo não apenas a redução da ansiedade, mas também o aumento da autoestima e da satisfação com a vida.
Adicionalmente, a yoga emerge como uma intervenção complementar que pode ser integrada ao estilo de vida saudável. A prática de yoga, que combina posturas físicas, técnicas de respiração e meditação, tem demonstrado eficácia na regulação da resposta ao estresse e na promoção de um estado de calma mental. A literatura científica ressalta que a yoga não apenas melhora a flexibilidade e a força física, mas também contribui para a diminuição da reatividade emocional e para a melhoria da qualidade de vida.
Em conclusão, a integração da atividade física, incluindo exercícios anaeróbicos e práticas de yoga, é essencial para a promoção da saúde mental, mostrando a necessidade de políticas institucionais que incentivem a prática regular de atividades físicas como parte integrante do cuidado com a saúde mental.
PREVALÊNCIA DE INFECÇÕES BACTERIANAS MULTIRRESISTENTES EM PACIENTES SOB TRATAMENTO ONCOLÓGICO.
Authors: De Amorim Maria Alice , Giachini Zavaski Gabriela , Mecabô Grazielle , Sackser Horvath Barbara , Ferreira Anderson Felipe
Published: October 2024

Introdução: A resistência bacteriana resulta do uso inadequado de antibióticos e envolve mecanismos como mutação genética, degradação enzimática, modificação do alvo, permeabilidade reduzida e exportação ativada. Enquanto que pacientes em tratamento oncológico são mais suscetíveis a infecções bacterianas multirresistentes devido à imunossupressão causada por tratamentos como quimioterapia e cirurgia, o que aumenta os riscos de doenças prolongadas, mortalidade elevada e custos hospitalares significativos. Objetivo: Analisar o perfil epidemiológico das infecções bacterianas multirresistentes em pacientes sob tratamento oncológico. Materiais e Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo de cunho transversal e original, no qual foi realizado a coleta e análise de dados de prontuários do CCIH (Comissão de Controle de Infecção Hospitalar) do Hospital UOPECCAN de todos os pacientes oncológicos que contraíram alguma infecção no ano de 2023. Resultados: Os resultados mostraram que 49,45% tinham entre 40 a 50 anos; Das culturas microbiológicas realizadas 53,81% mostraram-se positivas, assim como os antibiogramas; 30,46% dos antibiogramas equivalem a cepas resistentes. A fim de elucidar a prevalência dos microrganismos resistentes, 50% correspondiam a beta-lactamases de espectro estendido e 28,3% Staphylococcus Coagulase Negativa Resistente à Oxacilina, sendo que os microrganismos mais prevalentes foram Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli e Staphylococcus epidermidis; A taxa de mortalidade se demonstrou superior a 50%. Conclusão: Os antimicrobianos são essenciais para procedimentos invasivos, mas seu uso inadequado pode induzir à resistência microbiana, especialmente em ambientes hospitalares. A pesquisa destacou a alta prevalência de infecções bacterianas multirresistentes em pacientes oncológicos, muitas vezes sem sintomas claros, o que dificulta o diagnóstico. A realização de exames de cultura e antibiograma é crucial para orientar a antibioticoterapia e evitar o aumento da resistência, e garantir a eficácia terapêutica.

O trauma é uma das principais causas de óbitos infantis e de incapacitação em todo o mundo, o que torna essencial a busca por melhorias nos tratamentos para suas vítimas. Este artigo analisa as inovações recentes na cirurgia traumática, com ênfase em controle de sangramento, ressuscitação e reconstrução. O controle eficaz do sangramento é crucial, e as investigações têm se concentrado em metodologias como a ressuscitação focada em danos e a embolização endovascular. No âmbito da ressuscitação, métodos avançados estão sendo utilizados, incluindo abordagens baseadas em metas, soluções líquidas equilibradas e transfusões de sangue. Além disso, a reconstrução após o trauma tem apresentado progressos significativos, principalmente nas áreas de regeneração e engenharia de tecidos. Apesar dessas conquistas, existem obstáculos a serem superados, como a necessidade de mais pesquisas e desafios relacionados à equidade no acesso ao tratamento. Contudo, o avanço contínuo na cirurgia de trauma tem o potencial de elevar ainda mais os resultados para aqueles que sofrem essas lesões.

Este artigo realiza uma comparação entre a cirurgia de revascularização miocárdica (CRM) tradicional e as técnicas minimamente invasivas (CMI), que incluem a cirurgia assistida por robô. O objetivo é avaliar a eficácia clínica, os resultados funcionais, as complicações e a relação custo-benefício. As abordagens minimamente invasivas apresentam diversas vantagens, como redução do trauma cirúrgico, recuperação mais ágil e melhoria na qualidade de vida. As análises comparativas mostram que não existem diferenças significativas quanto aos tempos de isquemia e ao uso de circulação extracorpórea nas duas técnicas, embora as CMIs se distingam por apresentar incisões menores, além de reduzir o tempo de ventilação mecânica e a duração da internação hospitalar. A investigação dos resultados clínicos indica que as CMIs mantêm taxas de mortalidade e complicações cardiovasculares que são similares ou até superiores às observadas nas abordagens tradicionais. As técnicas cirúrgicas minimamente invasivas têm apresentado elevadas taxas de sucesso, com uma menor frequência de complicações tanto durante quanto após os procedimentos. Apesar de exigirem um tempo de aprendizado mais acentuado, esses métodos aliviarem a dor no pós-operatório e encurtam o período de recuperação, mostrando-se vantajosos em termos de custo. A seleção da abordagem cirúrgica deve levar em conta as particularidades de cada paciente e a experiência do cirurgião, buscando uma prática que seja mais adaptada e eficaz. Assim, pode-se afirmar que as técnicas minimamente invasivas, como a cirurgia robótica, se configuram como opções reais e promissoras em relação à cirurgia de revascularização miocárdica tradicional, resultando em melhores resultados clínicos e funcionais, além de elevarem a qualidade de vida dos pacientes com doenças coronarianas.

Introdução: A comunicação é um dos pilares fundamentais das interações humanas, permitindo a troca de informações e sentimentos. No entanto, para pessoas surdas, a comunicação tradicional via fala não é viável. Nesse contexto, obras literárias como "O Despertar do Silêncio” desempenham um papel essencial ao sensibilizar o público e os agentes de segurança sobre a realidade da surdez. Libras e o Atendimento Policial: Uma Questão de Direitos Humanos: A inclusão da Língua Brasileira de Sinais (Libras) no atendimento policial vai além da comunicação prática, sendo uma questão de direitos humanos. Formação de Policiais e a Necessidade de Capacitação em Libras: É necessário que a formação policial inclua Libras como parte de uma política pública mais ampla de inclusão, pois a capacitação, isoladamente, não resolve todos os problemas enfrentados por essa comunidade no Brasil. Tecnologias Assistivas no Atendimento à Comunidade Surda: Inovações e Desafios no Sistema de Segurança: Tecnologias assistivas também são cruciais, podendo ser determinantes em situações de emergência. A Importância da Sensibilização e Educação da Sociedade para a Inclusão de Pessoas Surdas no Sistema de Segurança: Além disso, a sensibilização da sociedade para a inclusão de pessoas surdas no sistema de segurança é fundamental para a eficácia das medidas adotadas. Conclusão: a inclusão das pessoas surdas no atendimento policial requer uma abordagem abrangente, que envolve a formação contínua dos profissionais de segurança, a implementação de inovações tecnológicas e, principalmente, a criação de uma sociedade mais informada e sensível às necessidades dessa população.

Implementation and challenges of sustainable tourism programs in Bali
Authors: Januar Rizky
Published: October 2024

The rapid growth of tourism in Bali has led to extensive development of accommodations, infrastructure, and facilities, positioning the island as a major tourist destination. However, this growth has brought significant challenges, including environmental degradation, cultural commodification, and social inequalities. The overexploitation of natural resources, unsustainable waste management, and deforestation have raised concerns about the island’s long-term ecological health. Additionally, the commercialization of cultural traditions and rising land prices have disrupted local communities and eroded the authenticity of Balinese heritage. In response, Indonesia has launched the "Decarbonization Roadmap for the Tourism Sector" to transition towards a more sustainable tourism model. This roadmap, supported by traditional values like Tri Hita Karana, emphasizes balancing economic growth with environmental preservation and cultural respect. Sustainable tourism practices such as community-based tourism and ecotourism are emerging as potential solutions, focusing on local participation and environmental conservation. Despite these efforts, significant challenges remain, including the uneven distribution of tourism benefits, income inequality, and the heavy reliance on tourism for Bali’s economy. Addressing these issues will require integrated and thoughtful approaches that prioritize sustainability and inclusive development.

Authors: Suniada I Gede
Published: October 2024

Penjor symbolizes gratitude and appreciation for the blessings of the earth bestowed by the divine. Balinese Hindus believe that Mount Agung is the sacred residence of Hyang Bathara Putra Jaya, along with other gods and ancestors. In the village of Karangsari Karangasem, there is a Penjor that remains true to ancestral traditions, unchanged from what has been orally passed down by the village elders. This Penjor is known as Penjor Balang Tamak. It represents critical thinking, devotion, and an expression of thanks to Ida Sang Hyang Widhi Wasa. The use of this Penjor has been preserved through generations and has become an integral part of the community's identity. It is placed in the northwest corner of the Bale Agung, to the east of the Candi Bentar in the Pura Puseh courtyard, as a tribute to the Balang Tamak figure and a symbolic witness to the village council meetings (pesangkepan) held at Bale Agung.
La calidad del agua, un reto para asegurar nuestra sobrevivencia

Published: October 2024

El agua, recurso vital para la sobrevivencia de los seres humanos se ha visto asechada por la avaricia y la ignorancia de quienes dependemos de ella.
América Latina, y en especial la región de Centro América se encuentra expuesta a condiciones hidrometereológicas que año con año impactan a las personas más vulnerables, sumándose a este escenario los efectos del Cambio Climático que poco a poco ha silenciado las voces de sus más fuertes detractores, evidenciando que es una realidad y que, de no tomarse acciones para mitigarlo, tendrá incalculables consecuencias.
Estos retos, obligan a la comunidad científica regional, hacer esfuerzos para identificar medidas de mitigación y adaptación que permitan asegurar la disponibilidad del recurso hídrico en cantidad y calidad para poder conservar nuestras funciones vitales y generar condiciones para impulsar el desarrollo de nuestras poblaciones.
Esto se dice fácil, pero en países donde no se asignan recursos para la investigación y que carecen de una gobernanza que facilite la implementación de acciones el panorama se ve sombrío y hasta imposible de solucionar.

Authors:   Lviv Ivan Franko National University, Kustryn Andriy
Published: October 2024

The article is devoted to the study of the evolution of the formation of the institutional environment for the functioning of small businesses in Ukraine and the development of proposals for its improvement to stimulate bank support in the field of small business. The regulatory and legal basis for developing small entrepreneurship has been staged. A portrait profile of a small business entity in Ukraine has been created. A scheme of interaction of state institutions supporting small entrepreneurship by supplementing its infrastructural block with new institutional units has been developed. Within the framework of the existing infrastructure, it is proposed to create a Bureau of credit histories of small business entities and a Unified platform for financing small business development. The priority directions for optimizing regulatory and legal support for small businesses are substantiated. The following are defined as control points for the regulation of small entrepreneurship: approximation of business management and regulation standards to EU standards; development of financial instruments alternative to lending; digitization of financial services, etc. It is essential to direct regulatory efforts in regulating alternative banks’ activities to support financial market intermediaries (fintechs, microfinance organizations, leasing and factoring companies) and diversify funding sources (factoring, crowdfunding). Stimulating the development of microcredit in Ukraine requires a comprehensive approach, the components of which can be simplifying the mechanism of obtaining microcredit, creating conditions for the development of non-bank financial institutions, improving the legislative provision of bank microcredit, state incentives for banks to expand micro- and other types of lending; creation of cooperative banks specialized in lending to small businesses; state support for microcredit information programs; reduction of the tax burden and improvement of investment and credit support mechanisms for small businesses; expansion of the list of state preferential lending programs for small enterprises; gradual increase in the volume of microcredit to support start-ups; expanding the use of digital financial technologies. Keywords: small business, institutional environment, banking support, regulatory and legal support.

Published: October 2024

The article examines the current state of bank lending to small businesses in the defense sector in Ukraine. An analysis of the component expenditures of the state budget in 2021–2024 has been carried out; in particular, the share of defense expenditures has been determined. It has been found that defense production requires working capital for the purchase of components, covering the gap between the advance and the need for funds, relocation of enterprises, and provision of uninterrupted/alternative power sources. An analysis of current lending programs for small and medium-sized enterprises managed by Ukrainian banks in 2023 (JSC CB “PrivatBank”, JSC “Oschadbank”, JSC “Sense Bank”, JSC “Ukrgasbank”, JSC OTP BANK, JSC “Taskombank”, JSC “KredoBank”) has been carried out. The structure and volumes of loans issued to entrepreneurs within the framework of the Affordable Loans at 5-7-9% state program during the period of martial law have been studied, and their sectoral structure indicates that the funds have been being directed chiefly to agriculture – 52%, wholesale trade – 17% and food industry – 8%. A range of problems faced by small businesses in the defense sector in the process of bank lending has been outlined, in particular: lack of contracts with the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, the need for weapon use approval, short-term nature, obtaining permission to export weapons, high interest rates, military risks, lack of collateral property, etc. The priority measures for expanding lending to the defense sector in Ukraine by the National Bank of Ukraine, the Ministry of Strategic Industries of Ukraine, and the Ministry of Finance of Ukraine have been systematized. It has been proposed that preferential state programs for bank lending be introduced to small businesses in the defense sector. Keywords: bank lending, small business, defense sector, support program, state program.

The Interplay of Poverty, Hardship, And Exploitation in Postcolonial Nigeria in Kaine Agary’s Yellow Yellow
Authors: Ubah Sylvanus Onyema , Adebua Babatunde , Oye-Oluwafemi Oluwatobiloba Adetutu
Published: October 2024

This study analyzes Kaine Agary’s Yellow Yellow through the lens of postcolonial theory, examining the socio-economic, environmental, and gendered issues in postcolonial Nigeria, particularly in the Niger Delta. The novel reflects the region’s ongoing struggles with neocolonial exploitation, environmental degradation, and identity conflict, intensified by global capitalism and patriarchal structures. A gap exists in analyzing how these dynamics intertwine with postcolonial legacies in Nigerian literature. Using textual analysis, the study explores how Agary critiques these neocolonial forces, illustrating their devastating impact on both people and the environment. Key findings include the portrayal of economic exploitation, environmental degradation, and the marginalization of women, with Zilayefa, the protagonist, embodying the hybrid identity struggling for self-definition. The study recommends further exploration of gendered oppression within postcolonial frameworks and the development of policies to address resource control, environmental justice, and gender equality in postcolonial Nigeria.

Based on the regulation of the Navy Chief of Staff No. Per Kasal/39/V/2009 dated May 26, 2009 concerning the development policy of the Navy towards minimum  essential force, namely the preparation of the Navy's combat power is directed to achieve minimum essential force or abbreviated as MEF. According to the Chief of Staff of the Navy Number Kep/1771 / XII / 2013 concerning the Administrative Guidebook for the Standardization of TNI AL Bases (PUM-7.03) that a TNI AL Main Base (LANTAMAL) must have a class A Fasharkan, whose ability is to be able to carry out maintenance and repair up to the depot level for all types of KRI, both ship buildings, machinery, sewaco, electricity and ship armaments. There are many studies of location prioritization using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method, but the results have uncertainty or decision uncertainty. So this research was conducted using the Fuzzy AHP method to overcome uncertainty or decision uncertainty. The Fuzzy AHP method is used for calculations to select alternatives. After the alternative is selected, then verification of location feasibility is carried out using the Geographic Information System (GIS) display. From the calculation using the FAHP method, Lantamal IX Ambon was selected as an alternative with a weight value of 0.251630342. While verifying the feasibility of the location using GIS, the Tawiri location was chosen as a more feasible land compared to other land options.

This research was made because there are still many people who do not understand the marriage agreement for separation of assets. Especially for people who enter into reciprocal agreements between creditors and debtors, where there are still people who are married debtors who do not have marriage agreements to separate assets. Bankruptcy occurs due to several factors, both individual and individual. A person is declared bankrupt if it is based on a commercial court decision which has direct legal consequences. One of them is the legal impact of a bankruptcy decision on the assets of a husband and wife, whether the husband is a bankrupt debtor or a wife who is a bankrupt debtor. Problems will arise because basically the concept of marriage or matrimony in Indonesia applies the concept of joint property, unless it is agreed separately before the marriage through a prenuptial agreement or prenuptial agreement regarding the separation of assets. Moreover, there are provisions in Marriage Law Number 16 of 2019 regarding amendments to Marriage Law Number 1 of 1974 concerning Marriage, provisions in Article 29 which state that an agreement for separation of assets can only be made before difficulties arise for married couples who are not yet familiar with an agreement for separation of assets. In connection with this, the Constitutional Court issued MK Decision No.69/PU-XIII/2015 which amended the provisions of Article 29 of the Marriage Law

With the hypothesis of the presence of water on Mars for years humans have invested hundreds of billions of dollars and researched it now by launching the Perseverance spacecraft and landing it on the surface of Mars they are looking forsigns of life on this planet.This is a sign of the importance of water for people and countries while without a doubt water means life and nothing survives without water.Of course the fate of the countries is decided by the water in these countries not the oil and oil condensates that cause the destruction of the planet day by day. Fresh and drinking water is a challenge in more than a hundred countries of the world and it is very difficult to meet the water needs of these countries This challenge has endangered human lives and all animal species and the environment and if serious action is not taken life on the planet will be destroyed.
Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) Optimization
Authors: Gujar Shruti , Patil Saurabh
Published: October 2024

The advent of Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) has fundamentally altered the landscape of software development, enabling teams to deliver updates with unprecedented speed and reliability. By automating the integration of code changes from multiple developers into a central repository, CI/CD practices ensure that software is continuously tested and deployed. This ongoing cycle not only facilitates quicker release cycles but also enhances collaboration among team members and fosters a culture of shared responsibility for code quality. Despite these advancements, organizations face significant challenges in optimizing their CI/CD pipelines. As software systems grow in complexity, the demand for swift and dependable deployments intensifies. This paper explores various techniques and strategies for optimizing CI/CD processes to minimize deployment times while maintaining system reliability. Key optimization methods discussed include: Parallelization of Build Processes: This technique involves breaking down the build process into smaller, independent tasks that can be executed concurrently. By leveraging distributed computing resources, organizations can significantly reduce build times, allowing for faster iterations and deployments. Dependency Caching: Caching dependencies can drastically decrease build times by reusing previously downloaded components. This approach not only speeds up the build process but also minimizes network load and enhances the overall efficiency of the CI/CD pipeline. Incremental Builds: Unlike full builds that compile the entire codebase, incremental builds focus on compiling only the changes made since the last build. This strategy reduces the amount of work needed for each build, accelerating the overall development process. The paper also delves into advanced rollback mechanisms such as blue-green deployments and canary releases. Blue-green deployments allow teams to maintain two identical production environments, enabling smooth transitions and quick rollbacks in case of issues. Canary deployments, on the other hand, introduce new features to a small subset of users before a full rollout, allowing teams to monitor the impact and catch potential failures early. Additionally, automated rollback mechanisms play a vital role in maintaining system reliability, ensuring that any failed deployments can be reverted swiftly to avoid downtime and user disruption. The impact of automation tools on deployment speed and error reduction is another critical aspect examined in this research. Automation frameworks can streamline various stages of the CI/CD process, from code integration to testing and deployment, minimizing human error and ensuring consistent, repeatable processes. By implementing robust automation strategies, organizations can not only accelerate their deployment cycles but also improve overall software quality.

This project focuses on implementing a 3 phase Sinusoidal PWM generation using the Hercules TMS570LC43xx Launchpad Development Kit (Launchpad). The primary objective is to generate synchronized Sinusoidal nature PWM signals using the onboard High-End Timer (HET) and Enhanced Pulse Width Modulation (ePWM) module, which can be given to the Inverter for conversion of Direct current (DC) power into Alternating current (AC) power. This conversion is essential in various applications where AC power is required but the power source provides DC power. It is used in Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems and other renewable energy installations. These systems generate power suitable for powering household appliances or feeding into the electrical grid. Itis alsoused in electric vehicles (EVs) to drive the electric motor with variable speed. For verification of the wave nature, we have used an external lowpass filter (LPF) to transform the dynamic PWM signals into sinusoidal waveforms, ensuring compatibility with various applications like Inverters which can be further used in equipment and machinery such as Brushless DC motors, pumps and compressors. With the addon functionality to control the signal’s frequency which will be given to the Inverter to control the speed of the motor. Additionally, the project incorporates RPM measurement of the motor using an optical encoder setup interfaced with the Enhanced Quadrature Encoder Pulse (eQEP) module on the Launchpad. This feature enables accurate measurement of rotational speeds, position and Revolution per minute (RPM), enhancing the functionality of the system in real world applications like the speed of conveyor belts and other automated transport systems. Through successful implementation, this project demonstrates wide control for the Inverter, achieving reliable synchronized 3 phase signals with its variable speed having 120-degree phase shift signals alongside precise RPM measurement.
