Despite Canada’s strengths and widespread acknowledgment of the importance of children and youth, this country recently ranked 30th among 38 high-income countries on indicators of their well-being (UNICEF Innocenti 2020). While there are limited data readily available for monitoring within and across jurisdictions, Alberta compares worse than Canadian averages on indicators of early development vulnerability and child abuse (PHAC 2023a).
The Alberta government convened a Child and Youth Well-being Review (GOA 2021) and Action Plan (GOA 2022a) to understand and address the pandemic’s adverse impacts. Indigenous and racialized children and youth, children in low-income families and children with disabilities were highlighted as being disproportionately impacted. In addition, the review found significant gaps in mental health, education, social data and evidence along with fragmentation of data within ministries and service systems (GOA 2021).
Influences on child and youth health, well-being and health inequity have social, environmental and economic origins that extend beyond health policy boundaries (Lopez et al. 2021; Vargas-Barón, Diehl and Small 2022; Clark et al. 2020; Patton et al. 2016). Yet, public policy can be a powerful intermediary between children’s conditions and outcomes (UNICEF 2020). Cross-sectoral, whole-of-society approaches are required to improve child and youth health and well-being and government ministries have important roles to play (Akseer et al. 2020; De Montigny, Desjardins and Bouchard 2019; Leppo et al. 2013).
Meaningful and accessible measurement and monitoring information is required to support co-ordinated, cross-sectoral decision-making and policy strategies to improve health outcomes and reduce health inequities (OECD 2021). Information is required about child and youth material living standards, physical and mental health, social lives and learning and education (OECD 2021). While definitions of child and youth well-being vary depending on diverse perspectives and cultural, social and local contexts, many established indicators and frameworks can be tailored to local community needs and priorities (OECD 2021).
The High Cost of Raising Provincial Tax Revenues Has Gotten Even Higher
Authors: Dahlby Bev
Published: September 2024

Households and firms’ responses to higher tax rates alter the volume and the allocation of land, labour and capital in the economy, reducing our income and consumption opportunities. These economic losses from raising tax revenues have increased for provincial governments across Canada in the last decade with the problem being especially acute in Newfoundland and Labrador, Ontario and British Columbia. However, by lowering personal and corporate income tax rates and shifting more of the tax burden to a sales tax harmonized with the federal GST, the provinces could lower the economic cost of raising tax revenues.
Taxpayers’ responses to higher tax rates adversely affect the economy. When rates go up, people are less inclined to save for the future because they must pay higher taxes on interest and dividends, and workers react by avoiding overtime and retiring early. When returns on investment generate higher taxes for corporations, they respond by cutting back their capital expenditures. Also, when people and companies can avoid paying a tax by shifting income or consumption to another jurisdiction with lower tax rates, the tax base will shrink as the tax rate goes up, reducing both income and consumption opportunities — an effect known as the deadweight loss from taxation. The larger the tax base, measured as a share of tax revenues, the greater the deadweight loss from a tax-induced decline in the tax base.
All of these reactions to higher tax rates change the volume and allocation of land, capital and labour in the economy. The societal cost from raising extra revenue through a small tax rate increase is called the marginal cost of public funds (MCPF). It can be used to determine which taxes are causing the greatest welfare losses and to measure the gains from shifting the tax burden from the high-cost sources of tax revenues to those that impose a lower deadweight loss. Public projects should use the MCPF in doing a cost-benefit analysis, comparing the project’s benefits with the welfare loss from financing the project through higher taxes. The more reactivehousehold and business decisions are to tax rates, the greater the MCPF.
When sales taxes are applied to a wide range of goods and services, people are limited by how much they can change their spending patterns to avoid paying those taxes. Thus, revenue is generated with lower detrimental economic effects than those created by increased personal and corporate income tax rates.
Provinces could reduce the problems created by the public’s incentive to avoid paying taxes by both lowering their personal and corporate income tax rates and moving the tax burden over to a general sales tax.

Published: September 2024

The present study was designed to establish the knowledge, beliefs, attitudes and emotions associated with diabetes in a healthy, young sample with different experience with the illness. Six hundreds of students of 4th grade of secondary obligatory education took part in the study. They were recruited from nine educative centres randomly selected during an academic year. The age of the participants ranged from 15 to 18 years old (M= 15.62, sd = 0.70; 50.8 % women). The Cuestionario sobre Diabetes (CSD; Vázquez and Cruz, 2004) was administered in collective applications. This questionnaire was designed for this study in order to evaluate in adolescents the above mentioned variables. The participants showed some level of knowledge regarding the illness, although it was not exhaustive, and, in general, they showed positive beliefs and attitudes towardsthe disease, as well as certain emocionality regarding the fact of suffering from it. The source of information, the experience with the illness and the level of knowledge of the participants exerted a relevant influence on the attitudes, beliefs and emotions associated with this illness. These results must be taken into account due to the impact that these variables can exert on the preventive and therapeutic behaviors of healthy persons and patients, as well as on the supporting behaviors aimed to ill people.

Published: September 2024

In this case study, the treatment of a woman with the diagnosis of major depression using systemic couple therapy is presented. In this kind of therapy the partner is included in the all the treatment sessions working in a conjoint format. As therapy progresses, the relational meanings of the symptoms are made explicit, some relationship difficulties emerge, and joint work is made to find solutions. This therapy was completed after 11 mostly two-weekly sessions, and the results at the post-therapy assessment showed a substantial decrease in her depressive symptoms (measured with BDI-II) as compared to pre-therapy assessment. Also, in the structured diagnostic post-therapy interview she did not fulfil anymore the criteria for major depression. For the couple, both perceived their relationship as more harmonious (according to their scores on the DAS). Within the characteristic limitations of a single case study design, this work illustrates the potentials of systemic couple therapy for the treatment of depression. CITE AS:Feixas i Viaplana, G., Muñoz Cano, D., Dada Sánchez, G., Compañ Felipe, V. & Arroyo Andreu, S.

Niños y niñas rumanos procedentes de adopción internacional: ¿son diferentes a los demás?
Authors: ROMÁN RODRÍGUEZ Maite
Published: September 2024

The aim of this article is to compare the psychological development of Romanian children adopted into Spain with children from other countries, specifically, we are interested in studying the level of psychological problems in both samples. In addition, this paper analyse if Romanian adopted children have experienced more adverse events than other children that could be related to later developmental difficulties. The sample was composed by 181 adopted children into Spain, 20 from Romania and 161 from other ountries. Results reveal that below 6 years old, Romanian children present more serious problem that other adopted children, indicating a generalized developmental delay. This difference is not so high for the oldest children. We also have found that Romanian children have been living in low quality institutions, and that they had fewer experiences of living with their biological mothers. Moreover, data shows a slight tendency for Romanian children to be adopted later than children form other countries, and to present a longer experience of hospitalization and institutionalization. There are not significant differences between both samples regarding experience of maltreatment, but the kind of negligence experienced by both of them is different. Although Romanian children experiment more psychological negligence, the rest of the children experiment more physical negligence. In conclusion, it seems to be that the best predictor of difficulties for adoption is not an isolated factor, but a combination of different adverse experiences.
Algunos problemas de la Psicología y propuestas de solución
Authors: DELGADO LORENZO Eparquio
Published: September 2024

Psychology is a young science that still has many different problems to overcome. Throughout the article we analyze four aspects related to the discipline that can help us identify some of these problems: the coexistence of multiple psychologies and the lack of agreement on their object of study, the overfragmentation of the discipline in increasingly more small areas, the lack of differentiation between “popular psychology” and “scientific psychology” and the confusion caused among students, professionals and laymen, the difficulty to know the training and expertise of a professional and job precariousness in the professional field of psychology, with almost 96% of temporary contracts and 12,695 unemployed at the end of 2017. Finally, some initiatives and guidelines are proposed to improve the situation, where both universities, teachers, students, researchers and clinicians, and schools professionals must be active agents so that this situation can change towards a better future of Psychology.
Las interacciones educativas de padres con hijos con defi ciencias auditivas. Una revisión desde la perspectiva del estatus auditivo de los padres
Authors: MUÑOZ SILVA Alicia , JIMÉNEZ MORAGO Jesús M.
Published: September 2024

The aim of this article is to revise the characteristics of the educational interactions of parents with children with hearing loss. For it, we distinguish among the families in those that the parents are listeners of those in those that the parents also suffer audition losses. The analysis of the peculiarities of the educational interactions in both types of families throws remarkable differences, mainly related with the quality of the stimulation of the development that is provided to the children, more positive in general lines in the families in those that parents and children are deaf. The factor that explains the differences among both families is the difference or similarity of auditory status between parents and children. The difficulties derived of the difference of auditory status are overcome when parents and children have a common code of communication that is good as vehicle for their interactions.

Authors: Navas Luque Marisol , Cuadrado Guirado Isabel
Published: September 2024

The main objective of this research was to study the attitudes of the local population towards three ethnic groups with a considerably high presence in a town in Almería (Southern Spain): North-African immigrants, black immigrants and gypsies. The participants were 105 subjects (56.2% female and 43.8% male), ages 18 to 62 (Mean=38.99; sd=12.45). We designed a questionnaire to measure the affective and cognitive components of attitude, the perceived social consideration of these groups, the attribution of in-group and Out-group differences and the perceived number of people that belong to these out-groups in the area. The North- African immigrants obtained the worst rating whereas black immigrants received the best. Gypsies were rated between these two groups. We also observe a negative evolution of the attitudes towards North-African immigrants in comparison to previous studies in this area. Attitudes towards black immigrants remained mode- rately positive. Possible psychosocial explanations for these results are discussed.

Published: September 2024

Autism refers to a neuropsychological alteration of heterogenous characteristics, whose serious and generalized symptoms are mainly exposed in three areas of development: cognitive, linguistic and social. Intervention in autism must be made in an individual way, attempting to strengthen the communicative abilities of the autistic children, supporting the interactions, their social skills and fortifying the desired behaviours while the dysfunctional ones are diminished. In this work, an up to date review is made on the nuclear symptomatology of autism. The main tools and  instruments, that must be considered in the process derived from a plan of intervention focused towards the reeducation or the treatment of this symptomatology, are presented under the light of the new knowledge. CITE AS:López Gómez, S., Rivas Torres, R.M. & Taboada Ares.

Published: September 2024

The paper presents the Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy used to modify the delusional beliefs and the emotional and functional consequences of a patient with a dismorphobic delusional disorder. The method included the following techniques: empirical, logical and functional discussion, verification of the reality and satiation. PANSS, dimensional measures of the extent of conviction, concerns about the belief, and subjective scales of anxiety and mood were used as measures of the results. The conviction about the belief disappeared. There was also an improvement in the emotional disturbances and in the social functioning. These changes kept up stable in his 12, 24 and 36 months follow up after the therapy. We reflect on the need of a long term psychological follow up for the intervention on the psychosis.

This settlement entails an intercultural contact between host population and immigrants but this contact is not free of psychological difficulties for the people who experience it, arising a complex and multi-dimensional adjustment process that affects immigrants harder most of the times. From the acculturation model proposed by Berry (1990), in current paper we have pretended lo find out in the influence of the acculturation strategies started up by immigrants over their process of psychological adaptation in the new culture. The results obtained show us that those immigrants who choose the integration strategy gel the best indicators in the adjustment process. CITE AS:Retortillo Osuna, A. & Rodríguez Navarro, H. (2010).

Role of Sericulture in the Indian Economy
Authors: Reddy Y. Praveen , Parasuramudu M.
Published: September 2024

Sericulture, often known as silk farming, involves raising silkworms to make silk.  Out of the five states that contribute to the majority of India's silk production—Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, West Bengal, and Jammu & Kashmir -98.5% comes from mulberry sericulture. Silk plays a vital role in Indian culture and tradition, with a rich history spanning over five millennia. Sericulture, especially in Karnataka, supports farmers' livelihoods and has significant economic potential. However, climate change poses a serious threat to global ecosystems, endangering species and affecting industries like sericulture. The Author uses the study variables for their study and also questionnaires, and statistical tools like SPSS and Excel for data presentation and calculation respectively also used statistical techniques like, Factor Analysis, Descriptive analysis, and Relatively Analysis. Sericulture enhances income, crop diversification, sustainability, and land use efficiency, supported by government policies and training. Sericulture is vital to India’s rural development, job creation, and exports. It supports millions of rural households, especially women and marginalized communities, by generating consistent income. As one of the world’s top silk producers, India benefits from government-backed sustainable practices, making sericulture crucial to its economy.
Therapeutic and Pharmacological Properties of Pumpkin Seeds: A Comprehensive Review
Authors: Silky  , Bisla Gita , Srishti
Published: September 2024

A well-known edible plant in the Cucurbitaceae family, the pumpkin has long been utilized as a functional meal or a herbal remedy. Pumpkin seeds are rich in phytoestrogens, vitamin E, and unsaturated fatty acids, which may have medicinal and nutraceutical uses. The use of pumpkins in traditional medicine to treat a wide range of conditions, including inflammation, dyslipidemia, bacterial or fungal infections, malignancies, intestinal parasites, hypertension, arthritis, and hyperglycemia, has drawn attention to the need for additional study on both the fruits and seeds of the pumpkin plant. Proteins, antioxidative phenolic compounds, tocopherols, triterpenes, saponins, phytosterols, lignans, and carotenoids are some of the micro- and macro-constituent compositions that improve pumpkin seeds. Pumpkin seeds have antidepressant properties and are mostly used in the management of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BHP). Regular pumpkin seed eating lowers the risk of Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease. Since pumpkin seeds are high in tocopherols, they can be extracted for edible oil and then used to formulate other foods at a later time. The pharmacological effects of pumpkin seeds have made them quite popular. Additionally, pumpkin seed oil has numerous health advantages. Pumpkin seeds are mostly composed of unsaturated fatty acids, which have been shown to provide potential health benefits and to prevent disease. Although pumpkin seeds are clearly very useful, their full potential has not yet been discovered.
Enhancing Interoperability: Exploring Data Exchange Standards in SaaS Laboratory Management Systems
Authors: Vuppalapaty Vicrumnaug
Published: September 2024

In the ever-changing environment of health care, smooth information exchange among different systems is significant to ensure efficiency and high-quality patient care. This is also important in laboratory management, where time and accuracy are critical for patients' diagnosis and treatment choices. Nevertheless, interoperability is still a big issue, with SaaS laboratory systems being the primary concern.
This study focuses on the importance of interoperability in contemporary healthcare systems, with particular emphasis on laboratory management. It shows the significance of an uninterrupted data flow between SaaS laboratory management systems and other healthcare I.T. systems, such as E.H.R.s and HIEs. Existing data exchange standards and frameworks for interoperability among SaaS laboratory management systems are discussed, including the challenges of achieving interoperability.
A quantitative research approach-based questionnaire was deployed to assess the interoperability requirements and processes of the genetic testing laboratories in the survey. Investigations point to different levels of compatibility among SaaS lab management systems in terms of features offered as well as the challenges faced by the latter. Challenges include different data formats, communication protocol standards, and data model incompatibility.
The study emphasizes the critical role of interoperability and data exchange in SaaS laboratory management systems and the entire healthcare industry. The methods of overcoming the interoperability problem are investing in education, creating collaborative partnerships, promoting integration frameworks, and establishing incentives for obedience to standardized data exchange format.

A bronquiolite é uma condição respiratória aguda prevalente em crianças, assumindo uma posição significativa como causa de morbidade e hospitalização pediátrica em todo o Brasil, sendo associada a até 199.000 óbitos por ano em crianças com menos de cinco anos e aproximadamente um milhão de internações anualmente 99% desses óbitos ocorrem em países em desenvolvimento. O agente etiológico mais comum é o vírus sincicial respiratório (VSR) e caracteriza-se pelo comprometimento das pequenas vias aéreas do trato respiratório inferior. É habitualmente autolimitada, podendo evoluir com insuficiência respiratória grave e necessidade de VM em pacientes suscetíveis. O diagnóstico baseia-se na história clínica e no exame físico, sendo exames complementares reservados para quando há suspeita de outros diagnósticos ou de complicações. O tratamento sempre foi motivo de dúvida e discussão ao longo dos anos, consistindo principalmente em medidas de suporte. A oxigenoterapia é a única terapia que é comprovadamente benéfica no tratamento de pacientes com BVA, entretanto o tratamento com corticosteroides sistêmicos, como a dexametasona, pode ser considerado em casos selecionados de bronquiolite moderada a grave, principalmente para reduzir a inflamação das vias aéreas e melhorar os sintomas respiratórios. Dessa forma, este artigo tem como objetivo compreender a abordagem da bronquiolite no âmbito atual, através de uma revisão integrativa com artigos em português e inglês, publicados no período de 2014 a 2024.

Environmental contamination by heavy metals represents a growing concern throughout the world, and the physiological potential of the seed allows estimating the theoretical capacity to manifest its vital functions in stressful situations. Due to this, this work aimed to evaluate the effect of increasing dosages of nickel on the physiological potential of Brazilian mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla) seeds and seedlings, seeking to indicate the potential use of this species in phytoremediation programs for use as technology clean. The seeds were grown in polyethylene pots containing sand and maintained at a constant temperature of 28°C, relative humidity (RH) of 90% and a 12-hour photoperiod for 43 days. The experimental design used was randomized blocks, with five treatments (0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 mg.L-1 de NiCl2.6H2O), with six replications. Data were subjected to analysis of variance (ANOVA) and means were tested for significant differences by Tukey test using R-Studio-1.3.1093 software at 5% significance. Changes in plant growth and biomass were observed under different nickel concentrations. In stressful situations, seedling emergence decreased to 28.6%, the average emergence time was postponed to 25 days and there was a longer interval between the first and last seedling emergence, impacting stand establishment. Despite the variations, the seed was capable of emerging, developing and surviving environments contaminated by nickel, indicating some resistance to metal stress.

Este estudo objetivou identificar e analisar a projeção de sombra de um discurso político de viés religioso, delimitada a uma determinada entrevista divulgada em canal midiático, público e aberto, concedida por um específico deputado federal e pastor, com relação às colocações sobre a homossexualidade e homossexuais, apresentando a transição da condição terapêutica da religião para o patamar de toxidade na vida do sujeito, especialmente quando utilizada por um represente de Estado. A partir da reflexão do papel da religião na construção do sujeito, aplicada a um discurso político, analisou-se o impacto desta experiência, sobretudo ao assumir papel nocivo. Como método, utilizou-se de Análise de Conteúdo de Bardin, aplicada à referida entrevista, evidenciando-se as categorias a) racismo, b) posicionamento religioso, c) homofobia e d) direitos humanos, sendo que, este trabalho, parte 2, abordará a categoria homofobia, por meio da sessão intitulada De antídoto à veneno – posicionamento político de viés religioso. Esclarece-se que o primeiro artigo, parte 1, abordou-se a categoria posicionamento religioso, por meio da sessão intitulada De antídoto à veneno – posicionamento político de viés religioso, por meio das subseções religião e experiência religiosa. Os resultados evidenciaram aspectos da sombra homofóbica presente nas narrativas do deputado federal e pastor supracitado. Destaca-se como a religião, ao invés de ser um antídoto, pode se tornar um veneno, especialmente quando utilizada por figuras públicas para justificar a homofobia e a discriminação, contribuindo para a docilização e o condicionamento de subjetividades.

Este artigo examina a evolução da telemedicina, destacando seus impactos e desafios tanto no Brasil quanto no cenário internacional. A telemedicina, definida como a prestação de serviços de saúde por meio de tecnologias de comunicação, tem se mostrado uma ferramenta vital para ampliar o acesso e melhorar a qualidade do atendimento médico. No Brasil, a regulamentação estabelecida pela Resolução CFM nº 2.227/2018 e as medidas emergenciais adotadas durante a pandemia de COVID-19, como a Portaria nº 467/2020, facilitaram a expansão dessa prática, permitindo que um número maior de pacientes recebesse atendimento remoto. Internacionalmente, organizações como a World Health Organization e a American Telemedicine Association promovem a telemedicina como uma solução eficaz para desafios de saúde pública, especialmente em áreas remotas e para o manejo de doenças crônicas. No entanto, a implementação da telemedicina enfrenta obstáculos significativos, incluindo desigualdades no acesso à tecnologia, preocupações com a segurança dos dados e a necessidade de infraestrutura adequada. O artigo também discute as oportunidades futuras para a telemedicina, como a integração de novas tecnologias e o fortalecimento das políticas públicas para garantir um acesso mais equitativo. Conclui-se que, apesar dos desafios, a telemedicina tem o potencial de transformar o sistema de saúde global, oferecendo soluções inovadoras para melhorar o acesso e a eficiência dos serviços de saúde.

A má rotação intestinal é uma anomalia congênita rara que afeta 1 em 200 nascidos vivos em casos de anomalia rotacional assintomática, enquanto a má rotação sintomática ocorre com menor frequência (1 em 6.000 nascidos vivos). Durante o desenvolvimento embrionário, ocorre a fixação anômala do mesentério, o que pode levar a diversos tipos de rotação intestinal anormal, como a rotação incompleta, reversa, não rotação e hérnia mesocólica. A má rotação intestinal pode estar associada a outras malformações em 30 a 60% dos casos, como atresia intestinal, divertículo de Meckel, doença de Hirschsprung, cisto mesentérico, intussuscepção, hérnia diafragmática congênita, defeitos de parede abdominal, anomalias das vias biliares extra-hepáticas e doença cardíaca congênita.

A Meditação Transcendental (MT) e a Ioga têm sido estudadas por seu papel na redução do estresse, um fator determinante em doenças cardiovasculares (DC). A Variabilidade da Frequência Cardíaca (VFC), um marcador importante de risco cardiovascular, é influenciada pelo estresse. Portanto, essas práticas têm potencial para melhorar a saúde cardiovascular e reduzir o risco de DC. Trata-se de uma revisão sistemática. Foi utilizado como critério de inclusão MT e IG como forma preventiva para os pacientes com DC e todos os tipos de DC (Hipertensão arterial, doença coronariana, cardiopatia congênita, arritmia e etc.). Um total de 1.321 publicações foram candidatas, no entanto, apenas 08 foram incluídos na seleção final. O uso da MT e a IG permitiu uma melhor triagem, compreensão e controle dos fatores fisiológicos durante as intervenções. Cinco estudos mostraram melhorias significativas na VFC com MT e IG, enquanto três estudos não encontraram diferenças significativas.
