Objective: Gastric cancer (GC) is a cancer with poor prognosis despite advances in diagnosis and treatment methods, and postoperative morbidity and mortality rates are high. The aim of this study was to evaluate the predictive and early prognostic effect of the pre-treatment albumin to globulin ratio (AGR) in patients with gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC).

Methods: The study included male and female patients who were operated on with the diagnosis of GAC in our general surgery clinic between January 2016 and November 2020. The demographic and postoperative histopathological findings, postoperative complications, and in-hospital mortality findings of the patients were evaluated retrospectively from the hospital data.

Results: Evaluation was made of a total of 70 patients operated on with the diagnosis of GAC. In the ROC curve analysis applied to the AGR ratio, the optimum cut-off value was 1.54. A statistically significant difference was found between the high (≥1.54) and low ( 65 years, high American Society of Anesthesiologist (ASA) score, and low AGR (p = 0.035, p
Primary health care policy and vision for community pharmacy and pharmacists in Estonia
Authors: Sepp Kristiina , Tuula Anita , Bobrova Veera , Volmer Daisy
Published: May 2021

Estonia, with a population of 1.3 million, is the smallest country in the three Baltic States. As a post-soviet country, Estonia over the past 30 years has built up a new health care system, including the pharmaceutical sector. The GDP allocated to cover health care costs is significantly lower in Estonia compared to the EU average. Despite this, Estonia has excelled in the development of digital e-services in healthcare at both the domestic and international levels. The development and integration of the Estonian community pharmacy sector into primary health care has been influenced and affected by the liberalization within pharmaceutical policy and the lack of cooperation with the rest of the health care sector. Community pharmacy ownership and location matters have been prevalent. The promotion of the pharmacy services has mostly taken place on the basis of a professional initiative, as cooperation with the state has not been active. Possibly the professional fragmentation of the pharmacy sector may have played a negative role. The community pharmacy network in Estonia, especially in cities, enables fast and convenient access to the pharmacy services. Community Pharmacy Service Quality Guidelines support the harmonization of the provided services and patient-centered concept to enhance the patient role and involvement in their care. In recent years, community pharmacies in Estonia have also offered various extended services that are more or less integrated with the primary health care system. New developments may be affected by frequent changes in legislation and a shortage of professional staff in community pharmacies. The ownership reform of pharmacies in 2020 has so far not had a significant impact on the operation of pharmacies or the quality of services provided.

Authors: KORKMAZ Nesrin , KARADAĞ Ahmet
Published: May 2021

In this study, nanoparticles containing Ag, Ag2O, and Ag2O3 mixture were synthesized by using a microwave-assisted green synthesis method. For the reduction of Ag+ to Ag0, Rhododendron ponticum plant extract was used while the microwave synthesis method was used for the formation of silver oxides. Nanoparticles synthesized under 90 °C, 450 W, and 30-minute microwave synthesis conditions were characterized by UV-Vis, XRD, and STEM. As a result of characterization, Ag-NPs were found to show maximum absorbance peak at 432 nm in the UV-Vis spectrum, crystallite size was 46 nm according to XRD analysis, and nanoparticles showed in a spherical homogeneous distribution by STEM analysis. Our results showed that the phytochemicals in the plant extract of R. ponticum reduce Ag+ ions to Ag-NPs and that the mixture of silver and silver oxide can be synthesized quickly and easily with microwave heating support. This study is important to increase the use of Ag2O and Ag2O3 nanoparticles in industrial production and medical applications. In particular, nanoparticles of silver and silver(I) oxide show great promise for widespread usage in medical polymers and nanodrugs. Because in this study, toxic chemicals were not used in the synthesis of silver oxide nanoparticles and it is a safe synthesis because there is no risk of explosion.

Integrating language literacy in physical sciences in Riba Cross District, South Africa
Authors: Kibirige Israel , Mogofe Asaph Romolus
Published: May 2021

The language of teaching and learning challenges Physical Sciences teachers and impacts learners’ achievements. The study aimed to investigate how language literacy is integrated into the teaching of Physical Sciences. A descriptive survey design was adopted. The participants were five Grade 10 Physical Sciences teachers and 211 learners (108 boys; 103 girls) from nine schools exhibiting low academic achievements. Data were gleaned through the Literacy Skills Usage Survey Questionnaire (LSUSQ). The results show that 77.78% of the teachers did not engage learners in report writing and arguments which are fundamental to language literacy, suggesting that integrating literacy in science teaching was inadequate. Learners had difficulties in contributing to word walls, writing reports, and arguing from evidence. The lack of integration suggests that teachers lacked training in integrating language literacy into science teaching. These findings underscore the need for workshops to enable teachers to incorporate language literacy in teaching Physical Sciences.

Empirical investigation into teachers’ attitudes towards inclusive education: A study of future faculty of Qatari schools
Authors: Hamid Mohamed , Mohamed Nagwa Ibrahim A.
Published: May 2021

Disabled students are capable of learning and growing equally to normal students, therefore the educational infrastructure of many developed countries is inclined towards an inclusive educational system. However, such students, unfortunately, are not treated well in developing countries where teachers’ attitudes are a key hindrance to an inclusive education system. This study assesses future faculty attitudes towards inclusive education in Qatari independent schools. A mixed population from Arabic studies, Islamic studies, English language, social studies, mathematics, and science sections of both primary and secondary programmes are selected from the College of Education at Qatar University. The Questionnaire of Attitudes towards Inclusion (QAI) is designed for populations of all genders and sections. Data are analysed statistically initially using the t-test and, later with descriptive statistics in SPSS software. The research findings suggests that future faculty show a positive attitude concerning with inclusive education. However, this attitude toward teaching special children varies which depends on the severity of disability and the nature. Further, teachers prefer to teach mild special children for instance those with learning disabilities. Additionally, the findings reveal no substantial differences in future faculty attitudes to special children in inclusive education with respect to gender or specialization. The study emphasizes the importance of academic and psychological preparation of teachers in Qatari independent schools to understand the nature of disability and motivate them to enhance their acceptance of children with disabilities.

Women and leadership style in school management: Study of gender perspective
Authors: Mulawarman Widyatmike Gede , Komariyah Laili , Suryaningsi Suryaningsi
Published: May 2021

Women’s representation in leadership positions is still low because there is still an opinion that women are not worthy of being leaders and only men are worthy of being leaders. This condition proves women’s low participation in leadership roles because the patriarchal culture still strongly influences people’s perspective. This paper aims to describe the roles and positions of women in school management. The research data are in the form of observations and interviews with female school principals and four male vice principals. The qualitative method with a gender perspective is used to identify women’s leadership style in Elementary School 002, Muara Badak District. The results showed that the principal in Muara Badak District prefers masculine characters and maintains a feminine character. It has an impact on assertiveness in controlling the school management process. Second, in carrying out school management functions, the principal’s leadership style applies a democratic leadership style. As a leader, participation seeks to provide trust and establish good communication by prioritising teamwork in decision-making.

From theory to practice: Constructivist learning practices among Jordanian kindergarten teachers
Authors: Rababah Ebtesam Qassim
Published: May 2021

The fundamental principle of “constructivist education” is that learning takes place when the learner enthusiastically participates in a process of “knowledge construction”. This study is aimed at exploring kindergarten teachers’ constructivist learning practices in Jordan. The participants of the study consisted of 60 kindergarten teachers; 30 kindergarten teachers taught kindergarten children in public schools and 30 kindergarten teachers taught kindergarten children in private schools in Irbid city of Jordan during the 2018–2019 school year. The study utilised a descriptive quantitative design, with an observation of Jordanian kindergarten teachers to gather data on the constructivist learning practices among Jordanian kindergarten teachers. The researcher designed an observation instrument that consisted of 35 items to collect data about constructivist learning practices. The findings revealed that the constructivist learning practices of kindergarten teachers were not developed to a high level of practice, but they achieved a moderate and low degree. Moreover, the researcher found that there are no “statistically significant” differences at (α≤ 0.05) among the sampled Jordanian kindergarten teachers’ implementation of constructivist learning practices based on experience, and their academic qualifications. However, kindergarten teachers utilised constructivist teaching practices in public schools more than in private schools. Professional workshops regarding constructivist learning practices among Jordanian kindergarten teachers are recommended.

Reflections on women in internationalization
Authors: Tasci Gulsah
Published: May 2021

Today, internationalization is among the most important strategic goals of higher education. In this context, academicians hold a significant place in academic knowledge exchange since they constitute the key mechanism in internalization. Despite this fact, female academicians continue to be underrepresented in the internationalization of higher education. Considering the emphasis on Sustainable Development Goal 5, which states that gender equality is the basis of sustainable development for all individuals until 2030, it is clear that women faculty members should be supported more in the internationalization process of the higher education. Further studies are required to determine how much of the inequalities experienced by women academics in terms of international academic mobility, visibility, and international publication opportunities are being transferred to international academic environment. For this reason, the present article aims to investigate the representation of female academicians in the internationalization of higher education from a feminist theory approach. Results of our study clearly indicate that there is a need for new policies in terms of the "visibility" of female faculty members in higher education in the world.

Pela primeira vez, Temáticas abre espaço para um conjunto de artigos que tratam de um tema comum. Diferente do que vinha ocorrendo até o nº5/6 da revista, ou seja, uma bem aproveitada gama de ensaios inseridos no conjunto da pesquisa universitária de cada um dos articulistas, tem-se, neste sétimo número, um espaço cujo intuito é trabalhar também com dossiês, o que faculta, tanto aos autores quanto à própria revista, a possibilidade de um debate mais profundo no tratamento dispensado a temas nuclearmente vinculados.Neste sentido, os artigos presentes neste número de Temáticas possuem uma fonte comum de inspiração: todos eles foram escritos sob a influência do projeto “Homem, Saber e Natureza - Hosana”, inicialmente idealizado como uma proposta interdisciplinar e coletiva envolvendo a investigação e análise de sistemas cognitivos de compreensão da lógica da natureza, e de formas culturais de apropriação ética e tecnológica do meio ambiente. Esse projeto, financiado pela Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP) e coordenado pelo prof. dr. Carlos Rodrigues Brandão durante os anos de 1992 a 1995, foi o norteador da troca de idéias e leituras críticas entre os pesquisadores, o que resultou num grande volume de trabalhos científicos, entre eles os artigos aqui contidos.

Este ensaio procura refletir sobre o lugar da natureza no sistema de valores da sociedade brasileira a partir da comparação de duas apropriações sócio-culturais de um mesmo espaço, o da Ilha do Cardoso, transformada em Parque Estadual em 1962. Este artigo procura refletir se a forma encontrada pela sociedade brasileira para preservar a natureza, expressa pelo próprio conteúdo dos diplomas legais, não representaria uma espécie de edenização do mundo natural; e consequentemente, voluntária ou involuntariamente, através destes diplomas a sociedade não estaria reproduzindo a dicotomia natureza-cultura, tão própria da cultura ocidental, e que as ciências sociais têm observado a partir de um complexo sistema de atribuição de valores, definidores inclusive das relações entre os homens, de seus lugares sociais.

Modernidad y representaciones colectivas
Authors: Bermúdez Mônica Solange de Martino
Published: May 2021

El objetivo del presente artículo es el despliegue del concepto “pepresentaciones colectivas” a la luz del debate sobre la modernidad. En este sentido, desmontar analíticamente el concepto nos remite a Durkheim en tanto pionero en ubicar a las “representaciones colectivas” como instrumentos que posibilitan el representar /decir social. Weber y Habermas nos permitirán abordar, posteriormente, el proceso de racionalización, cultural y societal, que estas representaciones colectivas sufrieron en Occidente con el advenimiento de la Modernidad y los umbrales de problematicidad que este proceso importa a la producción de significados culturales. Como obvia conclusión de este derrotero realizaremos una serie de reflexiones respecto a la plausibilidad de las “representaciones colectivas” en el marco de la estructura simbólica de las sociedades complejas.
Reformismo, social-democracia e partidos no Brasil

O autor discute a socialdemocracia no escopo partidário brasileiro. Mais especificamente, o artigo situa e identifica as propostas reformistas no espectro histórico-partidário da política brasileira. Em quais partidos nós poderíamos encontrar propostas mais relacionadas com um reformismo social-igualitário de caráter socialdemocrata ou socialista-democrático? O artigo faz uma breve retrospectiva do período pré-64 e depois analisa mais detidamente a configuracáo partidária posterior a 1979. Neste segundo periodo, principalmente com a eleição presidencial de 1994, o artigo sustenta que PT e PSDB tornaram-se pegas fundamentais para se compreender o reformismo social-democrata no Brasil.
Juridificação e desjuridificação em Habermas

Published: May 2021

O Direito é uma entidade conceitual singular dentro da obra de Habermas: por um lado, ele é uma mediação entre sistema e mundo da vida; por outro, ele articula questões que constituem o background social da Teoria da Ação Communicativa, como a crise do Welfare State e a Crítica pós-estruturalista da Razão. Neste artigo procuramos comparar duas intervenções de Habermas sobre o Direito: a análise da juridificação na Teoria da Ação Comunicativa e a discussão sobre a desformalização da lei nas Tanner Lectures. Como conclusão, reafirmamos a importância e a singularidade da discussão sobre o Direito, e procuramos ligá-la à discussão sobre a globalização.
La actualidad de las categorías gramscianas para el análisis de la reestructuración productiva en curso
Authors: Sosa Ruth
Published: May 2021

El presente artículo tiene como objetivo trabalhar algunas categorías gramscianas y actualizarlas como categorías de análisis del capitalismo contemporáneo. Privilegiaremos, aqui, el aspecto concerniente a la restructuración productiva en curso. Como punto de partida intentamos recuperar el concepto de la hegeminía presente en las formulaciones de los Cuadernos de la Cárcel. Todavía en este punto ganan relevancia las categorías crisis orgánica y revolución pasiva. Estas categorías demuestran su eficacia en la comprensión de las crisis del capital y en sus tentativas de resolución así como de la intervención estratégica de las clases subalternas en el proeso de construcción de su hegemonía. En un segundo momento, y a partir de los elementos previamente trabajados, desarrollamos algunas tesis presentes en los textos relativos a "Americanismo y Fordismo". A modo de "conclusíon" planteamos que el capitalismo contemporáneo, bajo la fachada ideológica de la "revolución científico-tecnológica" asume una clara estrategia de pasivización cuyo trazo esencial es el transformismo, aspecto distintivo, según Gramsci, para designar a la Revolución Pasiva.
Embalagem
Authors: Silva Lucas Frazão
Published: May 2021

A embalagem é a cristalização de um esforço social na construção de um processo de diferenciação do produto. O embelezamento da mercadoria, que é enfeitada (ou queira-se, enfeitiçada), visa convencer o consumidor a reconhecer-se nela e representa a mágica de realização da mercadoria. Este universo rico e colorido, incorporado por um objeto técnico especial - a embalagem - conformado entre as necessidades e os desejos do consumidor, e vinculado a ele através da marca e da propaganda desta marca, lubrifica e dinamiza a circulação das mercadorias. Considerando-se especialmente interessante este processo econômico, social e cultural de distribuição e realização de mercadorias no setor de alimentos, diferenciando produtos similares e substituíveis entre si, demonstrando versatilidad e competência em atingir o consumidor final, este estudo se propõe a contribuir para o entendimento da dinâmica deste processo.

Authors: Pacheco Cristina Carvalho
Published: May 2021

O presente artigo tem como proposta analisar - ainda que sucintamente - o processo de implementação das políticas de ajuste neoliberal que vem ocorrendo no Brasil após o Programa Nacional de Desestatização (PND). Parte do pressuposto que tais medidas, da forma como vem sendo feitas, afetam diretamente a sustentabilidade da democracia bem como também do Estado de Direito, através do desequilíbrio entre as atuações dos Poderes Legislativo, Executivo e Judiciário. Daz um breve relato histórico do surgimento do pensamento neoliberal para logo em seguida identificar as suas fases de implementação - a partir do Consenso de Washington - de forma que torno possível ver onde que o Brasil se encaixa. E, finalmente, levanta alguns dados referentes a recentes processos de privatização feitos, para expor o conflito existente entre o Poder Executivo e a sociedade civil.

Abstract Bambusa blumeana BI. Ex. Schult. F. is a non-timber forest product used as building material by the people of Lombok. The utilization of bamboos leaves their branches as a waste that has not fully utilized. One way to take advantage of this waste is to use it as a raw material to make activated charcoal. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of variations activation temperature, the concentration of phosphoric acid (H3PO4), as well as interactions between variations of the activation temperature and the concentration of phosphoric acid (H3PO4) on the quality of activated charcoal of B. blumeana branch. This study employed a factorial completely randomized design (RAL) with two (2) factors. The first factor (A) was activation temperature i.e. 600oC (A1), 700oC (A2), and 800oC (A3), meanwhile the second factor (B) used the concentration of phosphoric acid (H3PO4), namely 10% (B1) and 20% (B2). The results showed variations in the activation temperature significantly affected the yield and iodine adsorption. Based on the results, the best treatment was obtained at a temperature of 700oC with an H3PO4 concentration of 10% (A2B1) with the yield value of 76.04%, moisture content of 2.12%, volatile matter content of 32.70%, ash content of 8.15%, fixed carbon content of 59.15%, and sodium adsorption of 599.63 mg/g. Abstrak Bambu duri (Bambusa blumeana BI. Ex. Schult. F.) merupakan hasil hutan bukan kayu yang dimanfaatkan sebagai bahan bangunan oleh masyarakat Lombok. Pemanfaatan bambu tersebut meninggalkan limbah cabang yang belum dimanfaatkan secara maksimal. Salah satu pemanfaatannya adalah menjadi arang aktif. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh variasi suhu aktivasi, konsentrasi asam fosfat (H3PO4), serta interaksi antara variasi suhu aktivasi dan konsentrasi asam fosfat (H3PO4) terhadap karakteristik arang aktif cabang bambu duri (B. blumeana). Penelitian ini menggunakan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) faktorial dengan 2 faktor, faktor pertama (A) menggunakan suhu aktivasi yaitu 600oC (A1), 700oC (A2), dan 800oC (A3), sedangkan faktor kedua (B) menggunakan konsentrasi asam fosfat (H3PO4) yaitu 10% (B1) dan 20% (B2). Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa variasi suhu aktivasi berpengaruh nyata terhadap nilai rendemen dan daya serap iod. Berdasarkan hasil pengujian, perlakuan terbaik diperoleh pada suhu 700oC dengan konsentrasi H3PO4 10% (A2B1) yang menghasilkan nilai rendemen sebesar 76,04%; kadar air 2,12%; kadar zat terbang 32,70%; kadar abu 8,15%; kadar karbon terikat 59,15%; dan daya serap iod 599,63 mg/g.

The article addresses the issue of development of Kazakh, Russian and English languages in Kazakhstan. For this purpose, the authors give a definition of the types of bilingualism and polylingualism. The paper focuses on the significance of modeling of the educational process, the use of effective methods and technologies, gradual formation of foreign language speech culture and communicative competence. The model of multilingual teachers’ training is presented as a combination of motivational-value, content and technological components. In accordance with this, experimental work was conducted in three Kazakh universities. The result of the experiment is a polylingual speech culture and communicative competence of the future teachers within the selected scope of educational material. Another achievement in the experiment is the professional readiness of undergraduates to develop an integrated educational process for the formation of foreign language communicative competence, an ability to apply the concepts of the learning in educational process and justify them in a discussion. In the course of the study, the authors came to a conclusion that future teachers should have an integrated competence: knowledge of a foreign language and linguodidactic skills to plan classes in a foreign language.
