Management Accounting Development in the Process of Digital Economy Formation (Case of Georgia)
Authors: Bauchadze Besik
Published: July 2022

In the article there is given the assessment of digital economy in Georgia. It is established that effectiveness of managing activities of the organization depends on the information level support. There are discussed the issues of evaluation of the management accounting system functioning, development of cost accounting and budgeting methods, selection of the automated system for information and analytical support. The management accounting data allows not only to analyze the financial results of the organization activities, but also to manage costs, formulate assortment, investment, contract and pricing policies, and, consequently, directly to manage the organization work. The management accounting, which is the special system of knowledge, skills and abilities, can be described as the combination of two main subject areas: as a science and as a practical field of activity. The digital economics and management accounting are interrelated, because along with their development, the management accounting data appear digitally, processing them while using the innovative technologies. The management accounting should be flexible enough to provide any data needed to make the managerial decisions. The management accounting automation is the individual and complex process, as it is necessary to “transfer” the requirements of owners, managers to the accounting system, in terms of software product functionality and parameters, in accordance with the approved regulations. There exist the ready-made software products designed for automation of accounting, however, for medium and large business entities, the best option is to refine the software package for their specific activities, which will allow them to get the maximum efficiency. The article discusses the options for setting up the management accounting system in the organization, substantiates the benefits of implementing “1C: ERP Enterprise Management” as the mechanism for effective management of the company resources. Keywords: Automation, information technology, digital economy, management, Management accounting, control.

Re-writing motherhood in Flora Nwapa’s Efuru
Authors:   Obafemi Awolowo University, Nigeria, Ògúnfolábí Káyòdé
Published: July 2022

In the critical commentary about African women’s writings, Flora Nwapa’s Efuru has become the quintessential novel that ostensibly privileges the discourse of motherhood. In response to this critical position this paper examines Nwapa’s debut novel, and the potential connection between female objectification, heterosexuality, motherhood, and patriarchal domination. Reading the novel through the prism of Adrienne Rich’s idea of “compulsory heterosexuality,” it observes that even though motherhood is central to African communities and literary production, uncritical internalization of it helps to perpetuate heterosexual power, which objectifies women as targets of male sexual fantasy. The paper argues that the centrality of motherhood to Efuru might suggest its supremacy and consequently, women’s fulfilment, but the subliminal text of the novel is that motherhood is not necessarily always biological, and that women can find fulfilment in their social and sexual relationships as well as in their material wealth. Therefore, Efuru is radical in its own way, in the sense that it dares to create a women-centred space, which not only subtly challenges patriarchal social production, but also their representation as signifier and embodiment of male libidinal energy.
Sexism and misogyny in selected proverbs of the Chaga of Machame
Authors:   University of Dar es Salaam, Lema Emmanuel
Published: July 2022

This work employs a feminist perspective to examine how some proverbs of the Chaga of Machame portray a sexist ideology that supports patriarchal relations as well as social systems or environments in which women face cultural stereotyping. It discusses the impressions that some proverbs create and how such impressions set rules which govern how women are, should be treated and how they are expected to behave. It has been argued that some life-long gendered attitudes towards women are evident in the selected proverbs and that they take part in the creation of a social system which explains how women are seen, represented and how gender relations are organized, promoted, and shaped. The paper shows that proverbs constitute a powerful rhetorical device for the shaping of moral consciousness, opinions, and beliefs.
‘Maasainess’ and Whiteness: The Ruins of Colonial ‘Penetration’ in Hoffman’s The White Maasai and Budgor’s the Warrior Princess
Authors:   University of Dar es Salaam, Laizer Neema
Published: July 2022

This paper looks at ‘Maasainess’ and Whiteness as binaries in constant engagement aimed to question how Whiteness is re-inscribed in Maasainess in the autobiographical genre. It explores the image of the Maasai often figured as a male warrior, a residue from the colonial intrusion into the East African region during the nineteenth century. To trace the various embodiments of this male figure and how it enhances the intersections between Maasainess and Whiteness, I focus on two autobiographies by Euro-American women: Corine Hoffman’s The White Maasai and Budgor’s The Warrior Princess: Becoming the First Female Maasai Warrior. Drawing from Mary Louise Pratt’s idea of the contact zones and Renato Rosaldo’s imperial nostalgia, the paper reads Maasainess and Whiteness as sites of cultural encounters, even contested encounters. Both Hofmann and Budgor appropriate the Maasai male warrior by way of nostalgia as a trope and double cultural signifier to embody and reflect white privilege as well as freeze the image of Africa to its colonial past. It argues that the autobiography as a tool for self-expression is employed to extend the colonial agenda to appropriate cultural spaces and entities to further perpetuate the differences between Maasainess and Whiteness as cultural markers. However, the two autobiographies read here as medium of self-expression defy such cultural appropriations through their constant engagement with Whiteness and Maasainess as categories of difference, highlighting the fault lines in the cultural appropriation of Maasainess by Whiteness.
12 Chiefs with the Same Face: A Formal Analysis of the Maji Maji War Heroes’ Statues
Authors:   University of Dar es Salaam, Makukula Dominicus
Published: July 2022

This research addresses artistic ineptitude in historical preservation through public art. Its main objective is to argue for exceptional artistry and proper regulation of public art created for national historical preservation and promotion. Besides, this study investigates procedures followed before the creation and installation of public artwork(s) intended to preserve and promote national history in Tanzania. During the study, interviews, questionnaires, and observation methods were used to collect data. Meanwhile, the Formalism Theory informed data analysis and presentation. The findings show that all the 12 Busts installed at the Maji Maji Memorial Museum in the Songea district were ineptly designed and created. In fact, they were neither vetted by experts nor regulated before and after installation at the site. This oversight has resulted in substandard artworks, which constitute a travesty to the projection of the Maji Maji war heroes’ history while undermining the value of these busts in preserving and promoting the visual history of early anti-colonial struggles in the East African country. Moreover, these apparent artistic flaws have reduced the busts’ aesthetics value, thus generating low government, public interest, comprehension, and appreciation of the visual arts in facilitating effective conservation and promotion of national history and heritage. Thus, there is an urgent need for policy-makers to consider viable and plausible artistic approaches to national history and cultural heritage conservation and promotion projects nationally and internationally in addition to enhancing local and international audiences for wider benefits.

A questionnaire survey of dental students' attitude toward denture cleansing
Authors: Namrata M
Published: July 2022

Purpose: The aim of the study was to evaluate the dental students’ attitude and preference toward denture cleansing methods using a questionnaire survey. Materials and Methods: This survey was conducted on 200 undergraduate dental students of Saveetha Dental College and Hospitals. Data were collected using a questionnaire consisting of questions regarding students’ opinions, viewpoints, and recommendations about denture cleansing routines. Results: A total of 200 students studying in final year and interns were reviewed in thisstudy. About 78% of students felt denture hygiene is important to maintain esthetics and longevity of the denture. In the present study, 63% of the patients recommended mechanical method, 35% combination, and 2% chemical method. Regarding the frequency of denture cleansing, 40% of students recommended denture cleansing more than thrice a day, 37% recommended twice a day, and 23% once a day. This study reveals only 10% of students were aware of commercially available brands of cleansers in the market, 3% were aware of side effects, andonly 2% were aware of recent advanced methods of denture cleansing. Conclusion: Despite having theoretical knowledge, most of students do not give importance to proper denture hygiene maintenance in patients. As dental professional students must take responsibility for their patients’ health even after treatment, students should update themselves about new materials available in the market to create the denture hygiene practice efficient among the patients.
Efficacy of Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR) membranes in the healing of apico-marginal defects: A prospective, controlled clinical trial
Authors: Rohilla Rakesh , Tewari Sanjay , Singh Nayyar Abhishek
Published: July 2022

Background: There is still inadequate information available regarding the role of GTR techniques in such lesions with the presently available data suggesting that there is a possibility of healing of apico-marginal defects without use of GTR technique by using modern microsurgical procedures. Fewer randomized-clinical trials have evaluated the response of GTR membranes in the treatment of apico-marginal defects. Aim: The present prospective, controlled clinical trial was, therefore, planned to evaluate the role of collagen membrane as GTR material in the healing of apico-marginal defects. Subjects and Methods: Thirty patients meeting inclusion criteria were selected and allocated randomly to either the GTR membrane group or, the control group. Clinical and radiographic examination was done after one week for baseline measurements and then, during follow-ups at regular intervals of 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after the procedure. The criteria for success included the absence of clinical signs and symptoms and signs of radiographic healing. Statistical Analysis Used: The statistical analysis of the ordinal data was carried-out by using non-parametric methods. Mann-Whitney and Wilcoxon signed rank test were used for the unpaired and paired data respectively. Chi-square test was used to evaluate dichotomous data. Results: Significant reductions were observed in the periodontal pocket depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL), gingival margin position (GMP) and the size of the peri-apical lesion at 12-month follow-up (P < 0.05) in each treatment group except gingival margin position (GMP) in the GTR membrane group with the corresponding P value being 0.059. The results for the reduction in the size of the peri-apical lesion were, also, found to be statistically significant with the corresponding P value being <0.05. Furthermore, 83.33% of the patients showed complete healing in case of GTR membrane group while the same was found to be 90.9% in case of the control group although the difference in the percentage reduction in the size of the peri-apical lesion at different time intervals after surgery was found to be statistically insignificant between the two groups. Conclusion: The results of the present study indicated that there might not be any additional clinical advantage obtained from GTR membrane barriers in the surgical management of isolated apico-marginal defects of primary endodontic origin with absent or, minimal proximal bone loss.

Authors: Monica K  , R Abilasha , Ramani Pratibha , S Gheena , P K Reshma
Published: July 2022

Background:
Dental care facilities generate a high amount of Biomedical Waste (BMW) like sharps such as surgical needles, blades, wires, brackets, extracted teeth, human tissues, discarded or expired medicines and dental materials, highly contaminated with blood and saliva. Segregation and collection should be done in separate colour coded bags or containers; according to Biomedical Waste Rules, 2016 the Ministry of Environment and Forest in India. Poor management of wastes leads to high risk to public, patients and professionals and also contributes to environmental degradation.
Aim:
To assess the knowledge and awareness on management of biomedical waste management among orthodontists and practicing general dentists.
Materials and methods:
A cross sectional study was conducted through Google form (electronic based survey) among general practising dentists; survey consisted of 18 closed ended questions. The data collected were tabulated in Microsoft Excel and exported to SPSS, descriptive statistics and Chi-Square test was performed (p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant).
Results:
83.8% practising dentists follow the biomedical waste disposal policy in their hospital or clinic, among which 91% use protective barriers (e.g. gloves, masks) during handling of biomedical waste. 63.1% disposed human anatomical waste and blood contaminated waste properly where only 55.9% disposed extracted teeth and human tissue in yellow bags. Significant association was found between management of incinerated ash and qualification among orthodontists ( p=0.019) and with experience of less than 1 year had proper knowledge; (p=0.021). Disposal of plaster of Paris was properly managed among general practioners (p=0.039). Management of sharps was done properly using needle destroyers among general dentists and orthodontists (p=0.041).
Conclusion:
Safe and effective management of biomedical waste is a legal necessity but also a social responsibility of dentists, according to this present survey 7 – 9.2 % of the dentists are not effectively following the biomedical waste management.

Aim:

To evaluate and compare perceived pain and discomfort levels experienced by subjects treated with tooth-borne (Hyrax) and bone-borne (MARPE) Maxillary expansion appliances.

Materials and Methods:

Ten subjects (7 boys and 3 girls) with a mean age of 15.8(+/- 2.8) years were randomized into two groups. Group A received a MARPE appliance anchored using mini-implants in the anterior palate and group B received a conventional Hyrax appliance. A self-assessment questionnaire on pain intensity, discomfort and analgesic consumption was given to subjects on the review visit and responses were collected. Descriptive statistics and Mann-Whitney U test was done to compare the mean of pain and discomfort levels between the two groups.

Results:

All 10 subjects answered the questionnaire. More pain was experienced in the posterior teeth region by subjects treated with MARPE (p<0.05). No significant intergroup difference in pain levels experienced in the anterior region, palatal vault and the head region and analgesic consumption was noted. (p>0.05)

Conclusions:

Although both Hyrax and MARPE were generally well tolerated there was a significantly higher pain experience in posterior teeth region for subjects treated with MARPE.

O presente artigo visa demonstrar a importância dos aeradores disponíveis na indústria, atuando diretamente na qualidade e oxigenação da água nos sistemas de piscicultura em tanques artificiais. A água possui oxigenação de media 5mg/l e, inicialmente, é suficiente para os alevinos sobreviverem. Porém com o passar do tempo, devido ao crescimento dos peixes, restos de ração e dejetos que ficam acumulados nos tanques, bactérias vão se formando e consumindo, também, a oxigenação. Por este motivo o nível de oxigênio se torna insuficiente, sendo necessária a utilização de aeradores, que geram difusão de ar, aumentando consideravelmente o nível de oxigênio dissolvido na água (OD), que para um bom cultivo de peixes deve estar entre 4mg/l a 11mg/l. Existem diversos tipos de aeradores, e um deles é o aerador do tipo compressor radial ou soprador de ar, que atualmente possui o melhor custo benefício para piscicultura em tanques artificiais. Levando em consideração a eficácia dos aeradores por compressão no sistema de criação de tilápias, essa pesquisa teve como objetivo a obtenção de informações, dados e análises de resultados da implantação de um aerador desse tipo. Esse sistema é totalmente independente e elétrico, fazendo com que seja possível regular a quantidade de oxigenação inserida na água. Além disso, ele possui um filtro externo que suga o ar diretamente do ambiente, e, é feito de alumínio, característica importante quando se trata de um ambiente com alto índice de corrosão, otimizando sua funcionalidade.

Diversos fatores ambientais afetam a saúde e bem-estar do ser humano, podendo ser prejudiciais quando fora dos valores ideais. Através da utilização de dispositivos relacionados à Internet das Coisas (Internet of Things - IoT), é possível medir esses fatores, possibilitando uma melhor análise da qualidade do ambiente interno. Com o Aprendizado de Máquinas (Machine Learning - ML), é possível analisar de forma rápida e precisa grandes quantidades de dados, permitindo criar modelos que podem predizer valores futuros com base em valores passados registrados em um banco de dados. Este estudo busca utilizar o Aprendizado de Máquinas automatizado (Automated Machine learning - Auto ML) para encontrar os modelos mais eficazes para a predição de umidade, temperatura e iluminação em ambientes internos. Os dados utilizados no experimento foram coletados de dois dispositivos sensitivos localizados em ambientes internos distintos de uma mesma instituição de ensino no Brasil. Foi feita uma comparação entre modelos preditivos baseados em hipóteses de aprendizagem diferentes, objetivando encontrar o modelo que se destacasse nos quesitos acurácia e velocidade. Os resultados mostraram que os modelos que utilizaram o algoritmo Voting Ensemble, juntamente com os algoritmos XGBoostRegressor e LightGBM, foram os mais eficazes, atingindo acurácia semelhante aos modelos que utilizaram o Stack Ensemble, porém em um tempo consideravelmente menor. Este estudo contribuirá para futuros pesquisadores que precisem analisar grandes quantidades de dados envolvendo alguma das variáveis do estudo, assim como auxiliar no processo de encontrar um bom modelo de ML para predição de outras variáveis através da utilização do Auto ML.

A fitorremediação trata-se de um processo de purificação dos solos e da água a partir da retirada de substâncias tóxicas oriundas das atividades antrópicas por meio de diferentes espécies de plantas (ex.: alface d’água e aguapé). Este trabalho tem como objetivo o desenvolvimento de um protótipo experimental de fitorremediação com oxigenação forçada e sem oxigenação forçada para purificação d’água do rio Sorocaba, o qual já foi considerado como um rio morto nas décadas de 80 e 90. Nesse trabalho foram avaliadas as espécies macrófitas aguapé e alface d’água e ensaios de: pH, demanda química de oxigênio e turbidez foram realizados para avaliar o potencial da técnica. Os resultados demonstraram que o método de oxigenação forçada é o mais efetivo em relação a descontaminação da água após 14 dias de experimento, apresentando taxas de remoção superior a 95% e 90% para os parâmetros turbidez e DQO, respectivamente. Dessa forma, concluiu-se que a fitorremediação pode ser aplicado ao rio Sorocaba visando a sua manutenção e melhora na qualidade de vida para a fauna e flora presentes no rio.

São muitas as dificuldades vividas pela mulher que é mãe e tem uma profissão. Além de toda a costumeira concentração das tarefas de cuidados, a empregada mãe se depara com discriminações no ambiente laboral, que vão desde a redução de oportunidades de ascensão na carreira até a perda do emprego. Questiona-se, assim, até que ponto tais mulheres têm autonomia sobre si, sobre seus corpos e sobre suas escolhas profissionais, analisando-se o problema por meio das do Direito Civil e, também, do Direito Trabalhista brasileiros, a fim de verificar, ainda, possíveis soluções.
A perspectiva de gênero no Direito brasileiro
Authors: Setenta Aline , Miranda Lopes Saskya
Published: July 2022

O enfrentamento a violência contra a mulher no Brasil foi marcado pela promulgação da Lei 11.340 de 2006, que trouxe, de forma inovadora, a palavra gênero e seus desdobramentos para o Direito brasileiro, além de criar a primeira política pública de gênero no país. Muitos foram os avanços legais e a ampliação do campo de estudos de violência de gênero após o advento da lei, entretanto recentemente, esse cenário tem mudado. O avanço da extrema direita no Brasil tem ameaçado as conquistas legais e os espaços de discussão e prevenção da violência contra a mulher, ao defender a desvinculação da violência contra a mulher a uma questão de gênero. Assim, esse artigo tem como objetivo discutir a repercussão da presença da perspectiva de gênero no Direito brasileiro, após a Lei Maria da Penha até o advento do Protocolo do CNJ, e as recentes ameaças a essas conquistas. As incursões recentes contra a palavra gênero têm ameaçado a consolidação, ainda em andamento, da política de gênero e o fortalecimento da rede de enfrentamento que inclui a prevenção e a construção de uma educação na perspectiva de gênero.
A série “Anne with an E” e a sua contribuição para a discussão dos papéis de gênero
Authors: Melo Lívia
Published: July 2022

A série candense Anne with an "E", produzida pela Moira Walley-Beckett, é uma adaptação refinada e atual do romance de Lucy Maud Montgomery, “Anne de Green Gables”, publicado em 1908. A série conta com três temporadas, e, num enredo envolvente, apresenta os fatos vividos pela protagonista, após esta ter sido adotada por engano, por um casal de irmãos de meia idade. O presente ensaio objetiva correlacionar os temas e conceitos abordados na série sob a ótica feminista do que é ser mulher, e contribuir para a discussão sobre criação sexista e seu caráter reprodutor de desigualdades de gênero. Inicialmente, foi-se discutida a correlação da série com a expressão “não se nasce mulher, torna-se mulher”, uma vez que sexo e gênero são coisas diferentes, sendo este fruto da construção social. Depois, foram discutidos pontos que possuem relação direta com a expressão “Bela, Recatada e do Lar”, e, ao final, sobre a mensagem que coaduna com as expressões “Lugar de mulher é onde ela quiser” e “Sejamos todos femininas”, reforçando a mensagem de cada ser humano é único e que padrões não podem determinar quem somos e nossas função, além de que é necessário muitas e todas as mãos para transformações sociais.
Increasing Freshwater Fluxes from the Greenland Ice Sheet Observed from Space
Authors:   Utrecht University, Wouters Bert , Sasgen Ingo
Published: July 2022

With a potential sea level contribution of 7.4 m (Morlighem et al., 2017), the Greenland Ice Sheet is by far the largest freshwater reservoir in the Northern Hemisphere. In addition to precipitation that nourishes the ice sheet throughout the year, summer above-freezing temperatures cause surface melt. Part of the meltwater refreezes in the snowpack, but a considerable part runs off to the ocean. The difference between precipitation and runoff is referred to as the surface mass balance (SMB). Typically, when averaged over a year, snowfall exceeds runoff, resulting in accumulation of mass on the ice sheet. This mass gain is counteracted by the slow but steady flow of glacier that transports ice toward the margins of the ice sheet and eventually to the ocean, where it either melts or calves as icebergs.
