Estupro e denunciação caluniosa: o prejuízo ao sistema de amparo as mulheres no Brasil
Authors:   , Oliveira Beatriz Rodrigues Timóteo de
Published: February 2024

O presente trabalho apresenta um estudo acerca da influência da denunciação caluniosa no combate a crimes sexuais, da maneira como uma única denúncia sobre crime que nunca existiu atinge, indireta e negativamente, qualquer outra denúncia, mesmo que verdadeira. Apresentamos uma análise, através da pesquisa descritiva, da maneira como uma falsa denúncia do crime de estupro coloca em risco a eficácia dos mecanismos de proteção e acolhimento a verdadeira vítima e o que antes deveria ser usado como garantia de tratamento digno a vítima de violência sexual, é usado com má-fé para fins alheios aos previstos pela Lei. Consequentemente, nota-se um crescente descrédito do Estado diante do enfrentamento de crimes sexuais, o que aparentemente surge como ineficácia das autoridades em investigar a ocorrência de um crime e punir o acusado, na verdade é uma forma de prevenção de novas denúncias falsas que atribuem a autoria do crime de estupro a sujeitos inocentes, ferindo o princípio constitucional da presunção de inocência e o regular andamento da justiça. Além disso, da forma como essas denúncias prejudicam o entendimento das pessoas, principalmente mulheres, acerca desses crimes, com a premissa de que a palavra da vítima deve ser considerada prova suprema da ocorrência de crime sexual.

Lei de cotas raciais: reparação histórica ou discriminação
Authors:   , Santos Rebéca de Assis
Published: February 2024

A Lei de Cotas é um importante instrumento para a entrada de pessoas marginalizadas em espaços onde antigamente não poderiam nem ao menos sonhar com a possibilidade. Com a sua criação e a obrigatoriedade de reserva de vagas, surgiram inúmeros debates sobre a constitucionalidade da lei e o questionamento em relação à política pública ser injusta com o resto da população e até mesmo com os próprios pretos. Embora, a Lei tenha sido criada como tentativa de reparar o sofrimento tão duradouro, é de suma importância analisar o contexto histórico por trás dessa proposta e os pontos positivos e negativos desta legislação e se o seu objetivo — reparar a desigualdade social — foi alcançado ou apenas serviu para ser mais uma ilusão a igualdade de raças.

Using Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) equipped with optical RGB cameras
and Doppler radar, surface velocity can be efficiently measured at high
spatial resolution. UAS-borne Doppler radar is particularly attractive
because it is suitable for real-time velocity determination, because the
measurement is contactless, and because it has fewer limitations than
image velocimetry techniques. In this paper, five cross-sections (XSs)
were surveyed within a 10 km stretch of Rönne Å in Sweden. Ground-truth
surface velocity observations were retrieved with an electromagnetic
velocity sensor (OTT MF Pro) along the XS at 1 m spacing. Videos from a
UAS RGB camera were analyzed using both Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV)
and Space-Time Image Velocimetry (STIV) techniques. Furthermore, we
recorded full waveform signal data using a Doppler radar at multiple
waypoints across the river. An algorithm fits two alternative models to
the average amplitude curve to derive the correct river surface
velocity: a Gaussian one peak model, or a Gaussian two peak model.
Results indicate that river flow velocity and propwash velocity caused
by the drone can be found in XS where the flow velocity is low, while
the drone-induced propwash velocity can be neglected in fast and highly
turbulent flows. To verify the river flow velocity derived from Doppler
radar, a mean PIV value within the footprint of the Doppler radar at
each waypoint was calculated. Finally, quantitative comparisons of OTT
MF Pro data with STIV, mean PIV and Doppler radar revealed that
UAS-borne Doppler radar could reliably measure the river surface
velocity.
Shaking up assumptions: Earthquakes have rarely triggered Andean Glacier Lake Outburst Floods

Published: February 2024

As the world’s glaciers recede in response to a warming atmosphere, a
change in the magnitude and frequency of related hazards is expected.
Among the most destructive hazards are Glacier Lake Outburst Floods
(GLOFs), and their future evolution is concerning for local populations
and sustainable development policy. Central to this is a better
understanding of triggers. There is a long-standing assumption that
earthquakes are a major GLOF trigger, and seismic activity is
consistently included as a key hazard assessment criterion. Here, we
provide the first empirical evidence that this assumption is largely
incorrect. Focusing on the Tropical Andes, we show that, of 59
earthquakes (1900-2021) the effects of which intersect with known
glacier lakes, only one has triggered GLOFs. We argue that, to help
develop climate resilient protocols, the focus for future assessments
should be on understanding other key GLOF drivers, such as thawing
permafrost and underlying structural geology.
Conditional effects of tides and waves on sediment supply to salt marshes
Authors: Sun Jianwei , Prooijen Bram Christiaan van , Wang Xianye , Xie Weiming , xu Fan , He Qing , Wang Zheng Bing
Published: February 2024

The survival of salt marshes, especially facing future sea-level rise,
requires the supply of sediment. Sediment can be supplied to salt
marshes via two routes: through marsh creeks and over marsh edges.
However, the conditions of tides and waves that facilitate sediment
import through these two routes remain unclear. To better understand
when and how sediment import towards salt marshes occurs, measurements
spanning two months were conducted in Paulina Saltmarsh. The results
show that the marsh creek and the marsh edge do not import sediment
simultaneously. The marsh creek tends to import sediment during neap
tides with waves. A small tidal range results in weaker flow during ebb
tides, reducing the export of sediment. Strong waves, particularly
during this period, enhance the sediment supply from mudflats to the
marsh creek. Additionally, waves can directly affect sediment
re-suspension in the marsh creek during spring tides when the water
level is above the marsh canopy. The marsh edge benefits from
contrasting tidal and wave conditions, with sediment imported during
spring tides with weak waves. Waves during spring tides re-suspend
sediment, impeding the sediment deposition, and thus leading to sediment
export over the marsh edge. These results highlight the potential
sediment transport routes to marshes under varying conditions, shedding
light on their implications for the long-term survival of salt marshes.

Pencil beam scanning proton therapy for mediastinal lymphomas in deep inspiration breath-hold: a retrospective assessment of plan robustness
Authors: Hörberger Filip , Andersson Karin M. , Enmark Marika , Kristensen Ingrid , Flejmer Anna , Edvardsson Anneli
Published: February 2024

Purpose/background: The aim of this study was to evaluate pencil beam scanning (PBS) proton therapy (PT) in deep inspiration breath-hold (DIBH) for mediastinal lymphoma patients, by retrospectively evaluating plan robustness to the clinical target volume (CTV) and organs at risk (OARs) on repeated CT images acquired throughout treatment. 
Methods: Sixteen mediastinal lymphoma patients treated with PBS-PT in DIBH were included. Treatment plans (TPs) were robustly optimized on the CTV (7 mm/4.5%). Repeated verification CTs (vCT) were acquired during the treatment course, resulting in 52 images for the entire patient cohort. The CTV and OARs were transferred from the planning CT to the vCTs with deformable image registration and the TPs were recalculated on the vCTs. Target coverage and OAR doses at the vCTs were compared to the nominal plan. Deviation in lung volume was also calculated.
Results: The TPs demonstrated high robust target coverage throughout treatment with D98%,CTV deviations within 2% for 14 patients and above the desired requirement of 95% for 49/52 vCTs. However, two patients did not achieve a robust dose to CTV due to poor DIBH reproducibility, with D98%,CTV at 78 and 93% respectively, and replanning was performed for one patient. Adequate OAR sparing was achieved for all patients. Total lung volume variation was below 10% for 39/52 vCTs.
Conclusion: PBS PT in DIBH is generally a robust technique for treatment of mediastinal lymphomas. However, closely monitoring the DIBH-reproducibility during treatment is important to avoid underdosing CTV and achieve sufficient dose-sparing of the OARs.

Published: February 2024

Tattoos have become very popular worldwide in recent years. The aim of this study was to analyse a group of people interested in having tattoos, and screen them for body image disturbances. This cross-sectional self-administered internet-based survey included 4,809 individuals interesting in having tattoos. The majority of the study population were female (79.1%). The survey was conducted using a self-created questionnaire and the Body Dysmorphic Disorder Questionnaire – Dermatology version. Most tattoos in the study group were located on the forearms and hands (28.1%). The most popular motifs were plants (17.5%) and animals (16.9%). Out of 4,809 individuals, 19.9% had problems with acceptance of some parts of their body and 9.8% were screened for body dysmorphic disorder with the Body Dysmorphic Disorder Questionnaire – Dermatology version. Four percent of individuals reported that tattoos helped to improve their own perception of the appearance of their body by distracting attention from the other problems. Limitations of this study include possible participant selection bias and the overrepresentation of women. In conclusion, clinicians may expect to see more patients with tattoos and, of these, approximately 10% may be screened for body dysmorphic disorder.
To vanlige digitaliseringsfloker
Authors: Byremo Henrik , Fjellanger Benedicte
Published: February 2024

Når verden endrer seg gir det offentlige virksomheter både muligheter og utfordringer, men også endrede rammebetingelser. For holde seg relevant må de organisere seg slik at de er i takt med brukernes endrede behov og forventninger. Teamorganisering er den mest dynamiske organisasjonsformen vi kjenner. Mange norske virksomheter velger nettopp å bevege seg mot en teambasert organisering for å holde seg relevant for målgruppene og levere verdi. Denne overgangen er et hamskifte, ikke to graders kursendring som preges ofte av noen digitaliseringsfloker. Artikkelen presenterer to typiske floker: målsetting og lederens rolle og ansvar.
Abstract in English
In an ever-evolving world, public organizations are confronted with continuous shifts in their operating environment. This presents a spectrum of opportunities and challenges. To maintain relevance in this dynamic landscape, it is imperative that these organizations continuously focus on organizational form to meet the evolving needs and expectations of their users. To our knowledge, team organization is the most dynamic organizational form.
Recently, aiming to stay relevant and capitalize on the benefits of digitalization has become a strategic choice for many organizations. This move towards team-based structure is not merely an adjustment but a fundamental transformation, essential for harnessing digitalization's full potential.
This transition often encounters two "digitalization tangles”: goal setting, and the roles and responsibilities of leaders. Goals must be tailored to the team organization and cannot follow the traditional matrix organization structure. When goals are set along the axes of expertise and delivery, they create competing objectives, which makes it difficult for teams and individuals to prioritize in their daily work.
Leadership in a team-based organization requires a paradigm shift. Leaders must pivot from traditional task-focused management to fostering value creation and team success. This necessitates a nuanced understanding and execution of leadership roles, balancing clear direction and goal setting with the autonomy of task execution. Some leaders struggle in this new context, veering towards either absenteeism or micromanagement, both of which hinder the efficacy of team organization.
Successful public organizations that leverage the advantages of digitalization through team organization overcome these challenges. They establish clear, non-conflicting goals, and leaders play an active role in facilitating team success, embracing the evolution of their roles with a learning mindset and commitment.
Our experience suggests that thriving in a team organization differs fundamentally from traditional matrix or domain-based forms of organizing. It requires a rethinking of fundamental business aspects, including goal setting and leadership roles.
Isolation and Identification of Methicillin Resistant Staphylococci at Bethzatha Advanced Laboratory, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
Authors: Z Ottoro
Published: February 2024

Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase negative staphylococci (CoNS) are widely spreading. So identification and antimicrobial susceptibility tests of methicillin resistant S. aureus and coagulase negative staphylococcus (CoNS) is critical to appropriately treat patients and control the increasing spread of these pathogens. Therefore the aim of the present work is to determine methicillin resistant S.aureus and CoNS from clinical samples sent to BethZatha Advanced Laboratory from different health institutions and Bethzatha Hospital, Addis Ababa, for bacterial isolation, identification and antimicrobial susceptibility. Bacterial isolation, identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing were done using Microscan panel methods (Beckman Coulter, Brea, CA, USA) from May 2021 to February 2022 at Bethzatha advanced Medical Laboratory. The retrospective data was analysed to determine methicillin susceptibility of S.aureus and Coagulase negative staphylococci (CoNS). The finding shows 35% (40/114) S. aureus and 65.8% (75/114) coagulase negative staphylococci (CoNS) were isolated from different clinical specimens (urine, blood culture, pus and discharges). Out of 40 S. aureus isolates 30% (12/40) were methicillin resistant. Similarly, out of 75 CoNS, 52% (39/75) were methicillin resistant. Almost all methicillin resistant S. aureus and most CoNS isolates were multiply resistant to amoxicillin clavulnate, azithromycin, penicillin and ampicillin. Periodic surveillance and appropriate control measures and safety precautions of nosocomial and community acquired methicillin resistant multidrug resistant, staphylococcus aureus, and CoNS must be given prior attention.

Authors:   Department of Physics, University of Lampung, Bandar Lampung, Indonesia, 35141, Suryani Mei
Published: February 2024

The Plant Microbial Fuel Cell (PMFC) design using water hyacinth has been successfully created. The PMFC was then treated by varying the distance of the electrode and giving the effect of sunlight. The electrodes used are Cu-Zn pairs where the electrode distance varies, with values of 3, 6, 9, and 12 cm. Furthermore, the data was taken with PMFC conditions placed outside and indoors for 14 days (331 hours). The results showed that PMFC with an electrode distance of 3 cm produced a more excellent value of electrical power than the other electrode distances, which was 0.6786 mW on the second day at the 37th hour or in the afternoon at 13.00 WIB. In general, the electrical characteristics produced by PMFCs, which are affected by sunlight, produce greater electrical power than PMFCs indoors.

Published: February 2024

The methodological analysis of the requirements for the prevention of forest fire onset and spread has demonstrated that at the design, development, and maintenance of forest sites, it is required to apply various proven methods enabling the assessment of risk of damage to hazardous production facilities protected from forest fires (upper and ground fires) via the selection of fire protection measures in forests, such as forest fire prevention, fire hazard and forest fire monitoring in forests, and forest fire extinguishing. The expert method, the system analysis methods, and the methods of management theory and decision-making were applied in order to solve the problems. The topicality of the study covered in the article is the analysis of fire safety requirements in forests and the development of informational and analytical support for the decision-making when evaluating the probability of the onset of forest fire and the risk of damage to the adjacent hazardous production facilities caused by a forest fire (upper fire, ground fire) in accordance with the calculation methodologies applied for specific situations, based on the expert method. The industrial safety management system and the industrial safety requirements must ensure the identification, analysis, and forecast of accident risk at hazardous production facilities, as well as the planning and implementation of fire safety measures and risk reduction. The scope of studies is industrial facilities, the Federal Forestry Agency, expert activities, activities of insurance companies, scientific activities, and individuals competent in forest fire safety (experts). To ensure the fire safety of hazardous production facilities, it is required to assess the risk of the onset and spread of a forest fire (upper fire, ground fire). In order to determine a safe allocation of forest stands and ensure the safe operation of firefighting subdivisions during forest fire extinguishing, it is required to apply the proposed expert method associated with the control of activities of the body responsible for the implementation of measures of planning, development and maintenance of forest stands at the exercise of official powers.

Background: Evaluation of the risk factors of atherosclerosis and carotid artery stenosis have been subjected to several investigations. The present study was conducted to determine the degree of carotid artery stenosis and investigate the relationship between atherosclerosis risk factors and coronary artery involvement in coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) patients.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 450 CABG candidate patients who visited Shahid Beheshti Hospital in Qom. The patients were divided into 4 groups according to the degree of carotid artery stenosis and were examined in terms of risk factors for atherosclerosis and coronary artery involvement. Finally, the data were analyzed using SPSS statistical software.
Results: In total, about 18% of the patients had carotid artery stenosis, of them 13.6% had stenosis of less than 50%, 3.2% had stenosis of 50%–70%, and 1.2% had stenosis of more than 70%. Age, history of hypertension (HTN), hyperlipidemia, and previous history of cerebrovascular accident (CVA) showed a significant relationship with carotid artery stenosis. However, gender, BMI, diabetes, history of smoking, history of angiography and lipid profile of the patients did not show a significant relationship. Also, the incidence of CVA after CABG was 1.2%.
Conclusion: The present study showed that old age, HTN, hyperlipidemia, and history of CVA are directly related to the severity of carotid artery stenosis.

China's Water Diplomacy: Xishuangbanna Case Study
Authors: Grünwald Richard , Geng Caicai , Wang Wenling
Published: February 2024

Xishuangbanna presents one of eight China's Autonomous Prefectures in Yunnan Province and an important trans-Asian hub at the Myanmar-Laos borders. Apart from rich ethnic diversity and a well-preserved tropical ecosystem, it is also the only place from where China shares the actual hydrological water data with downstream countries on the Mekong River since November 2020. As a part of China’s water diplomacy, Xishuangbanna presents both a geostrategic instrument and a fountain of inspiration for non-traditional regional cooperation. In the presented study, we used the constructivist discourse analysis to re-interpret the “Lancang-Mekong Spirit”, a narrative emphasising the community of shared destiny, common interests and solidarity among Mekong countries. Data has been collected from the Lancang-Mekong Cooperation and Conflict Database, which records over 3000 water-related events in the Mekong River Basin between 1990 to 2023. While emphasizing the historical, geographic and political proximity with other Mekong countries positively facilitate China’s foreign policy image in Southeast Asia, the success of the China’s water diplomacy may be limited without accountable inclusion of Yunnan Province specifics. The findings can be replicable in other case studies on China’s non-traditional foreign policy strategies.

Published: February 2024

The article scrutinizes the various aspects of the conceptualization of profession in sociological discourse. The works of both foreign and domestic sociologists are analyzed. Using the method of discourse analysis, inter-pretations of the phenomenon of profession as a social association, a subculture, a set of networks and con-nections, a social institution, as well as an independent discourse have been identified. A discourse analysis of the types of professional communities is presented depending on the main sociological parameters: status, sense of significance/closeness, isolation, cohesion, degree of loyalty, value of belonging to the community. Particular attention is paid to the interpretation of the profession as a social institution, expressed in the pres-ence of attitudes and patterns of behavior, symbolic cultural characteristics, specific ethics and ideology. A set of aspects of the systemic impact of professional discourse on personality is defined. The article develops a generalizing model of interpretation of the given phenomenon in sociological discourse.

Mia Couto: entre a cidade e o exílio, em Jesusalém
Authors: Pereira Jose Paulo
Published: February 2024

A leitura desdobra, no romance Jesusalém – de Mia Couto – não apenas os pressupostos do seu título, mas também os dos títulos das suas versões brasileira e inglesa. Parte, quer da ambivalente significação do advérbio “além” – ali associado ao nome de “Jesus” – quer do jogo paronomástico com “Jerusalém” – cidade ética, política e religiosamente pensada por Emmanuel Lévinas, em Au-delà du verset. Sublinha, assim, o que o “além” implica, de uma certa crítica do cristianismo e acompanha, na personagem de Silvestre Vitalício, quer o processo do seu exílio da cidade e da sua loucura, quer a sua melancólica sobrevivência à morte de sua esposa, Dona Dordalma. Na escrita de Mwanito – autor ficcional do romance – observa a sua compatibilidade, quer com o conceito desconstrutivo de “escrita em geral”, de Jacques Derrida, quer com o conceito de imagem, segundo E. Lévinas, ambos a suporem uma obliteração do “ser” como presença plena.
A study on the analysis and understanding of art works based on graph neural networks
Authors: Li Hua
Published: February 2024

With the development of the Internet, many art works are uploaded for people to enjoy. To make it more convenient for viewers to understand and analyze the content of art works. In this paper, we use the GNN graph neural network analysis model to extract the art style, creation period, color expression and other features of the works through the work feature saliency attention module, and classify them using the similarity metric. At the same time, we put forward the GNNMMVisRe model to explore the works from the visual multimodality. The analysis results concluded that the Impressionist style of art works had its heyday in the 18th-19th centuries, when the number of works reached 11,674. The Baroque classicism style reached its heyday in the mid-18th century with 5,921 pieces. In terms of color use, low saturation and low luminance color palettes were selected, with average values of 81.3% and 83.4%, respectively. Using the GNN model to categorize, analyze and study the art works improves the understanding and appreciation of the works. It is also significant for the further development of art.

To improve the effect of foreign language teaching in colleges and universities with high efficiency, this paper constructs a BP neural network optimized by multi-data chain by integrating multi-data chain and BP neural network, which effectively solves the shortcomings of BP neural network that is easy to fall into the local optimum. It optimizes the initial value and the threshold value of this neural network. On this basis, the multi-data chain optimized neural network is used to analyze the existing data related to English teaching in colleges and universities, to present the proportion of factors affecting foreign language teaching in colleges and universities in the form of data, and to summarize the reasons for acting the teaching effect and the problems existing in the current foreign language teaching classroom. Teachers and students make positive improvements to foreign language classroom teaching based on the data presented by the neural network to improve the effect of foreign language teaching in colleges and universities. Combined with the BP neural network optimized with multiple data chains, this paper conducted an experimental analysis of students’ concentration, satisfaction with the classroom, and performance. As can be seen from the results of data calculation, after the factors affecting the teaching effect were summarized and corrected, the concentration level of the two students in the experiment was significantly improved, and both remained above 50%. In addition, there was a massive difference in the grades of the same group of students before and after the improvement. The average grade of the control group was 76.47 and the middle grade of the experimental group was 87.6.

With the development of the times, the cultivation of literary appreciation ability in the education system of colleges and universities has been gradually emphasized. This paper constructs a multimodal semantic analysis model based on text feature extraction, image feature extraction and audio feature extraction, and after fusing multiple modalities, combines them with sentiment semantic Analysis, optimizes them through the self-attention mechanism module, and finally constructs a sentiment semantic analysis model based on multimodal feature fusion. Through the performance analysis of the multimodal feature emotion semantic model, the algorithm model accuracy of this paper is as high as 89%, and the recognition accuracy of emotion is stable at about 80~85%. The multimodal sentiment semantic model proposed in this paper has an accuracy rate higher than 80% on literature appreciation related datasets. In the empirical evidence of literature appreciation, the average recognition accuracy rate of emotions expressed in literature is 62.80%. The study provides an achievable path for the multimodal semantic Analysis of contemporary literature appreciation integrated into college teaching, which is of practical significance for developing literature appreciation teaching in colleges and universities.

In the current aviation industry’s demand for excellent service personnel surge, this paper emphasizes the importance of physical training for college aviation service personnel to improve the image of individuals and companies. To this end, this study is oriented to the employment needs of aviation enterprises, creates the “9C cooperation” physical training and nurturing model, and establishes a detailed set of physical training quality evaluation index system. Taking University S as a case study, the data were collected through questionnaires, and factor analysis was applied to comprehensively assess the quality of training and nurturing of aviation service talents. Combined with the IPA analysis model, this paper further explores the correlation between corporate satisfaction and importance and the physical training system. The study results showed that the total variance contribution of the four main factors to the quality of physical training and nurturing was as high as 91.33%, while the overall score of the quality of training and nurturing was 3.153. The importance and satisfaction of enterprises to the quality of form training are distributed in a high range, showing that the training system needs to be further improved. Therefore, colleges and universities need to refine the teaching objectives and contents to ensure that the quality of physical training for aviation service talents can meet the actual needs of aviation enterprises and promote the industry’s overall development.
