Published: August 2022

Resumo O presente artigo tem por objetivo evidenciar os conflitos e as disputas no âmbito do espaço participativo durante o processo de revisão do Plano Diretor de São José dos Campos/SP. Neste contexto, verificou-se uma visão ideológica municipal comprometida com a criação de suporte territorial para atração de capitais, que deveria ser legitimada durante a revisão do Plano Diretor. Considerando isso, analisam-se: a formação do espaço participativo institucional, a ação discricionária do poder público municipal para aprovação do Plano Diretor em 2018 e os cenários de resistência à ordem implantada por meio das ações da sociedade civil organizada.

ABSTRACT The purpose of this report is to describe the case of a patient who underwent awake craniotomy for neurosurgical resection of a glioma and pre, intra and postoperative linguistic assessment. Male patient, 27 years old, incomplete higher education presenting vomiting, mental confusion and tonic-clonic seizures. After the evaluation of the patient by the team and due preoperative guidance, the proposal of excision of the lesion while awake was clarified and accepted. At the start of the procedure, the fields were adjusted to keep the airway and eyes accessible for mapping with electrical stimulation and intraoperative language assessment. Due to the location of the tumor close to the speech motor area, tasks were proposed for the assessment of language in four moments: preoperative, intraoperative, immediate postoperative and mediate postoperative. The language skills tested in the four assessments were: comprehension and expression of oral language, linguistic transposition, associative language, naming, visual discrimination, fluency and syntax organization. In order to control and eliminate the learning effect of testing, the same tasks were requested, but with different contents for testing skills in the four phases. Surgery with the patient awake allowed the complete and safe resection of the tumor, without motor or linguistic damage to the patient. Team engagement, interdisciplinary interaction and detailed surgical planning constitute the pillar for the good result of such a complex and delicate procedure

Justificativa e Objetivos: A COVID-19 causada pelo SARS-CoV-2 é transmitida pelo contato, por gotículas e por aerossóis. A Organização Mundial da Saúde recomenda a obrigatoriedade do uso de máscaras cirúrgicas aos profissionais da saúde e incentiva os países a aderirem ao seu uso, em massa, a fim de minimizar a transmissibilidade do vírus. Posto que a falta desse equipamento de proteção individual causa preocupação, o objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar as características de máscaras faciais quanto (i) às propriedades mecânicas alongamento, tensão de ruptura e resistência a passagem de ar e (ii) às propriedades morfométricas espessura, diâmetro das fibras e distribuição de poros após esterilização em autoclave. Métodos: As máscaras foram confeccionadas em TNT Spunbonded (100% polipropileno, 60 g/m2), autoclavadas a 70 ºC por 5 minutos e armazendadas em filmes plásticos a temperatura ambiente. Na sequência, as propriedades mecânicas foram determinadas em máquina de teste universal Instron e densímetro automático tipo Gurley e as propriedades morfométricas em medidor de espessura semiautomático e microscópio eletrônico de varredura. Resultados: Observou-se que um ciclo de esterilização das máscaras faciais, por calor úmido sob pressão, promoveu o aumento da rigidez da manta, não produziu danos físicos e não diminuiu a capacidade de barreira da manta. Conclusão: A esterilização de máscaras faciais confeccionadas em TNT pode ser considerada uma estratégia para aumentar a segurança na sua produção e uso.

Published: August 2022

Background and objectives: Healthcare-Associated Infections are a problem reported by hospitals worldwide, increasing patient morbidity and mortality, prolonging hospitalization, and increasing health care costs. The hands of health professionals are still the main source of infections, making hand hygiene extremely important for spreading infection control. The objective of this study was to analyze the presence of bacteria on the hands of health professionals after hygiene with alcohol gel in a Neonatal Unit and describe the resistance of microorganisms to antimicrobials. Methods: Hand samples were collected using the modified glove-juice method on both occasions, before and after hand hygiene with alcohol gel. Bacteria were identified by MALDI-TOF and susceptibility tests according to Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute document M100-E29. Results: A total of 214 samples were obtained, of which 104 (48.6%) showed bacterial growth before hand hygiene and 52 (24.3%) after hand hygiene with alcohol gel. There were 217 isolates from the cultures, of which coagulase-negative Staphylococcus was the most frequent with 41 (27.2%) and 24 (36.4%) positive cultures, respectively before and after hand hygiene. The second most frequent microorganism was Klebsiella pneumoniae with 32 (21.2%) and 16 (24.2%), respectively before and after hand hygiene. Multidrug resistance to antimicrobials was detected in 58.1% of gram-positive bacteria and in 34.3% of gram-negative bacteria. Conclusion: A decrease was observed, but not an elimination of the microbial load after hand hygiene with alcohol gel, demonstrating the need for improvements in hand hygiene.

Introducción: El riesgo de suicidio aumenta durante la adolescencia por factores que actúan acumulativamente. El estudio tuvo como objetivo identificar los factores asociados al peligro de suicidio en adolescentes escolarizados.

Materiales y métodos: En una muestra de 565 adolescentes escolarizados se midió el riesgo de suicidio a través de la escala de Plutchick y se identificó su asociación con el género, funcionamiento familiar, ser víctima de desplazamiento forzado, tener antecedentes familiares de intento y/o suicidio consumado, síntomas psiquiátricos, dependencia a sustancias psicoactivas, acoso escolar y adicción al internet, por medio de la aplicación de instrumentos válidos y confiables.

Resultados: Un 28,8 % de los adolescentes escolarizados presentó riesgo de suicidio. La mayoría de los factores estudiados se asociaron al riesgo de suicidio, tales como el género (χ² = 14,539a; gl = 1; p = 0,000), víctima de desplazamiento (χ² = 4,095a; gl = 1; p = 0,043), antecedentes familiares de suicidio e intento de suicidio (χ² = 54,891a; gl = 1; p = 0,000), funcionalidad familiar (χ² = 82,819a; gl = 3; p = 0,000), síntomas psiquiátricos (χ² = 187,915a; gl = 1; p = 0,000), consumo de riesgo de marihuana (χ² = 6,830a; gl = 1; p = 0,009), cocaína (χ² = 6,023a; gl = 1; p = 0,014) y tranquilizantes (χ² = 6,354a; gl = 1; p = 0,012), acoso escolar (χ² = 8,754a; gl = 1; p = 0,003) y adicción al internet (χ² = 16,486a; gl = 1; p = 0,000).

Conclusión: El riesgo de suicidio en los adolescentes escolarizados está asociado a varios factores, es decir es un fenómeno multifactorial, por lo que se sugiere estrategias integrales de prevención con enfoque de gestión integral de riesgos, que permitan identificar tempranamente el riesgo de suicidio para priorizar la medidas preventivas y terapéuticas como parte integral del proceso educativo de los adolescentes.
Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa): Nutritional composition and bioactive compounds of grain and leaf, and impact of heat treatment and germination
Authors: Campos-Rodriguez Jordy , Acosta-Coral Katherine , Paucar-Menacho Luz María
Published: August 2022

Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa) is an Andean pseudocereal produced in countries such as Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador and southern Colombia, with more than 3,000 varieties, distinguished by their nutritional properties and adaptation to different agro-ecological zones. Quinoa's nutritional profile stands out for its protein, carbohydrate, lipid and gluten-free content; it is rich in vitamins; and it is an excellent source of minerals, such as calcium, magnesium, iron and phosphorus. It is one of the few foods that have in its composition all the essential amino acids, standing out from other cereals such as rice or wheat. It is an excellent source of bioactive compounds, which have antioxidant, cytotoxic, antidiabetic and anti-inflammatory properties. With respect to quinoa leaves, several studies have indicated that they have higher protein content than grains, as well as inorganic nutrients such as calcium, phosphorus, iron and zinc. In addition, they can potentially serve as a rich source of phenolic compounds and carotenoids. Conventional heat treatments greatly or slightly affect the composition of the food, including bioactive compounds and antioxidant capacity. Germination provides the product with greater bioavailability and an increase in bioactive compounds. The purpose of this work was to document research on quinoa and its leaves, the effect of thermal treatments and germination on its bioactive compounds, in order to promote the creation and innovation of products based on its bioactive compounds, thus combating malnutrition in our population.

The objective of the study was to evaluate the combinational effect of Bacillus subtilis strain PB6 along with vitamins (V), minerals (M), and amino acids (A) on performance, growth, and carcass characteristics of broiler chickens during the early days and compare with commercially available combinations of V+A, and M+A without probiotics. An in vivo trial was conducted for a period of 35 days with day 1 Cobb 430 broiler chicks, randomly allotted to one control and four treatment groups namely T1 (PB6+VMA-1 g/L), T2 (PB6+VMA-2 g/L), T3 (V+A-1 mL/L) and T4 (M+A-2 mL/L) using a completely randomized design. Each group had 7 replicates and 12 birds per replicate. The performance parameters such as body weight (BW), and feed conversion ratio (FCR) were monitored throughout the trial. At the end of 7 days, BW was significantly higher for T2 (174.71 g) in comparison with T1 (173.99 g), T3 (174.41 g), T4 (173.39 g), and control (173.35 g, p < 0.05). However, no difference in FCR was observed (p > 0.05). Similarly, at the end of 35 days, T2 (1842.15 g) showed the highest BW compared to control (1818.36 g), T1 (1839.39 g), T3 (1833.20 g), and T4 (1816.73 g) and significantly least FCR (1.53, p < 0.05) in comparison with control (1.55), T1 (1.54), T3 (1.57) and T4 (1.56). At the end of 35 days, carcass characteristics such as carcass, breast meat, and organ yield were evaluated and no significant difference between the groups was observed (p > 0.05). The gut health of the birds was assessed by evaluating the dysbacteriosis and total mean lesion score at the end of 35 days and a score of less than one was observed for all the groups. Furthermore, return on investment (ROI) was analyzed and T1 showed an ROI of 2.21:1, followed by T2 which showed an ROI of 1.72:1, and no ROI was seen for T3 and T4. The results from this study suggest that supplementation of PB6 along with essential nutrients has a positive impact on the performance of broiler chickens, without affecting gut health and helps poultry producers for profitable farming.

The opportunities for researchers are enhanced with the progression in the technology of communication and computing. The ease in life of many people like farmers, educators, administers, managers, etc., is increased with more inventions of the researchers using this new technology. The progressive technology for data management is providing more amount of information. However, is the user able to access the needed information when required? This question rises to the more questions like, how to identify whether the information is as per the requirement? Whether a user is authorized or not? The answer for all the questions is to make the support aware of the context. Therefore, the present technology needs to be modified to make the system aware about the context. The process of demonstrating the services based on the context using Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) with the help of illustration on mango crop is emphasized in this paper. There are many serious problems like unsuitable fertilizer use, wrong selection of crops in wrong seasons, water waste, poor publicizing in the case of farming. These problems are addressed using the ubiquitous context aware middleware architecture for precision agriculture in mango crop.

Métricas de impacto y evaluación de la ciencia
Authors: Calò Lilian N.
Published: August 2022

Los científicos siempre buscaron formas de evaluar los resultados de las investigaciones para reconocer y premiar sus esfuerzos, y para apoyar decisiones en programas y políticas públicas. Las medidas o métricas de impacto de la ciencia se transformaron, en las últimas décadas, en el motor propulsor del ambiente académico. Investigadores, revistas científicas, bases de datos y casas editoriales, instituciones de investigación y agencias de financiación tienen su trabajo gobernado por el impacto de la investigación que producen, publican, indexan, promueven y financian. Se utilizan largamente indicadores bibliométricos para la evaluación de la producción científica, a pesar de la falta de relación inequívoca entre citas y calidad, impacto o mérito científico. Además, cuando se considera la innovación, característica inherente de la investigación científica, la relación es todavía más desconectada. En este artículo se describen los tipos principales de métricas utilizadas para evaluar la producción científica, sus características, potenciales y limitaciones.

Published: August 2022

Understanding the benefits of using self-regulated learning (SRL) strategies in online courses may help both EFL teachers and students improve the quality of teaching and learning EFL at tertiary level. The current study aims to investigate students’ use of SRL strategies, their perceived learning outcomes, and the correlation between the use of SRL strategies and perceived learning outcomes in an online ESP course at Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology (HUTECH University) in Vietnam with the participation of 148 fourth-year English-majored students. Both quantitative and qualitative data were gathered via the employment of the questionnaire and interview. Data were analyzed through the use of descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation analysis, and content analysis. The study revealed 3 major findings: (a) all the 6 categories with 24 online SRL strategies were used at a rather high level; (b) most students perceived that they could achieve their learning outcomes; and (c) a positive correlation exists between the use of SRL strategies and the achievement of perceived learning outcomes. Based on the findings of the study, several pedagogical implications for teachers, students and researchers are offered.
Vulvovaginal candidiasis: Epidemiology, treatment and prevention strategies
Authors: Seth Shobhit , Gandhi Ashwini Bhalerao , Purandare Ameya , Athota Kavitha , Kumar Priya Ganesh , Tandon Sudha , Shah Poonam
Published: August 2022

Vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) is a commonly encountered clinical condition. At least three-fourth women experience one episode of VVC in their lifetime. In India, the prevalence of VVC is 10 to 35%. Laboratory methods often supplement clinical diagnosis. VVC should be confirmed with culture and other investigative techniques, especially in complicated and recurrent cases. Topical and intravaginal azoles remain the mainstay of therapy. In women who have predisposing risk factors or develop recurrent VVC, oral antifungal agents are used. Topical steroids may be used in women having vulvar symptoms along with pruritus. Pregnancy is a significant risk factor. Intravaginal azoles remain the standard of treatment and can be offered from the second trimester onwards. The emergence of non-albicans species has caused difficulties in the management of VVCs. Thus, all women with vaginal discharge should be correctly diagnosed to tailor the therapy.

: A randomised Controlled trial to assess the role of an individualised introduction to labour given after 37 weeks of gestation in allaying anxiety prior to delivery and birth satisfaction, in primi-gravidas

: After obtaining approval from ethics committee, antenatal mothers, booked for delivery in this hospital, who gave written informed consent, were randomized to Group A (Interventional group) and Group B (comparator group). The Anxiety Assessment Scale for Pregnant Woman in Labour (AASPWL) was administered to all participants at first contact in the antenatal clinic, after 37 weeks of gestation by the investigator. The post-intervention AASPWL questionnaire was administered to all participants in the first stage of labour by a blinded assessor. The birth satisfaction of all participants was assessed after delivery using the Birth Satisfaction Scale (BSS) by a blinded assessor in the ward.

The difference in mean anxiety score measured in the first stage of labour and during antenatal visit (>37 weeks of gestation) in Group A and Group B was analysed. It was found that the two groups were homogenous, but the increase in anxiety during labour was less in group A compared to group B, however the difference was not statistically significant. The Birth Satisfaction Scale score in the intervention group was significantly higher compared to the comparator group (p<0.001).

An individualised structured introduction to labour reduced the AASPWL scores in first-time parturient mothers who received the intervention, compared to mothers who did not receive the intervention. This reduction, however, was not statistically significant. We also found that the individualised structured introduction to labour enhanced the birth satisfaction of first-time parturient mothers, measured by the Birth Satisfaction Scale (BSS) significantly and resulted in higher scores in the subdomains of the BSS.

: Not just in the management of labour and delivery, but also in the treatment of high-risk pregnancies and growth tracking, fetal weight assessment is important.

This study is to determine which method of fetal weight estimation is more accurate which helps inappropriate decision making as ultrasound is not readily available in case of emergencies and also it is an additional burden on sonologist during emergencies.

: This prospective comparative study was carried out at the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department and Radio-diagnosis of GSL Medical College from September 2020 to February 2021.

These clinical and ultrasonographic fetal weights are compared with actual weights.

2 patients delivered babies with actual birth weights in the range of 1.5-2 kg, 13 patients g between 2.1 and 2.5 kg, 29 patients between 2.6-3.0 kg, 21 patients between 3.1 and 3.5 kg and 5 patients between 3.6 and 4.0.kg.

Hadlock's and Dare's equations anticipated mean birth weights of 2.90 and 3.07 kg, respectively.

Studies indicated that ultrasonographically estimated fetal weight is no better than the clinical for predicting fetal weight. Clnical estimates appear to be as accurate as ultrasonographic estimates where ultrasound is not available.

It becomes important to detect chromosomal abnormalities prenatally and early in the pregnancy. The present thesis is aimed to assess the performance of prenatal screening tests for chromosomal abnormalities detection i.e., dual marker test, first trimester ultrasound which measures the nuchal translucency and presence or absence of nasal bone, and their correlation with diagnostic test which is the karyotyping after amniocentesis.

It is a prospective & observational clinical study conducted in Obstetrics and gynaecology department of a tertiary care hospital. Two hundred pregnant females above 18 years of age attending ANC OPD (Antenatal Check-up Out-patient department) were considered for this study.

In this study we found the presence of chromosomal abnormalities in 10% of participants. Combined sensitivity of NT and Dual marker test was found to be 83.75% in detecting chromosomal abnormalities.

It can be concluded at the end of the study that; prenatal diagnosis with ultrasonography for nuchal translucency either alone or in combination with dual marker test offered good detection rate for these chromosomal abnormalities.

Anemia is a major public health problem especially among the poorer segments of the population in developing countries like India and hence there was a need to study the risk factors, complications and outcome of the impact of anemia on maternal and fetal outcome.

A hospital based cross-sectional study was conducted on 400 ANC anemic women. A face to face interviews was taken and data of demographics and history of patient was collected using a standard questionnaire in a tertiary care hospital in a central India.

In the present study, most of the patients, (50.5%) were from age group 21 to 25 years. Most of them 66.8% were house maker and 68% visited hospital > 4 times, 60.75% were multi-gravida and 83% have normal BMI. 17% have severe, 67% have moderate and 16% had mild anemia.

There was significant positive correlation between maternal haemoglobin and BMI and birth weight. Most common Foetal complication was LBW and IUGR.

Chromosomal polymorphisms (CPM) are minor variation of karyotype, found in >1% of the general population. Heterochromatin, the inactive part of the chromosome, shows frequent polymorphism - increase/decrease in length. Recently, studies show that heterochromatin is not inert, but contains genes essential for spindle attachment, chromosome movement, meiotic pairing, and sister chromatid cohesion. Balanced translocation in parents, reciprocal and robertsonian, can disrupt important genes, and produce gametes with unbalanced gene dosage, causing spontaneous miscarriage.

To correlate between chromosomal polymorphisms/ structural alterations and first trimester Recurrent Pregnancy Loss (RPL) primary infertility.

: 100 couples with primary infertility or RPLs, were karyotyped by 72-h whole blood culture. Giemsa banding (GTG) was done in all cases. 20 metaphases were analysed according to the ISCN criteria. The total no. of RPLs was noted for each couple with abnormal karyotype.

Of the 44 couples with abnormal karyotype, 36 (82%) had chromosomal polymorphism, 7 (16%) showed structural abnormality and 1 (2%) had numerical abnormality. Chromosome 9qh+ was present in the majority (33.33%). Among the D, G chromosomes, chromosome 15ps+/pstk+ were found in 22.22% but average no. of RPL was 2.15, whereas average RPL in Chr.22ps+ (incidence 5.55%.) was 3 (highest). Among male partners, Chr.Yqh+/Yqh- were found in 12 (33.33%) couples. Among the structural abnormalities (16%), balanced translocation accounted for 11.36%, maximum of which were Reciprocal translocations.

The frequency of chromosomal abnormalities is higher among couples with RPLs and infertility, compared to the general population. Karyotyping gives important genetic information, thus acting as a good diagnostic tool, and helps to plan ART or perform prenatal testing.

Published: August 2022

El objetivo de este estudio es desarrollar un rastreo y una documentación bibliográfica para comprender los componentes que rodean las estrategias didácticas en el desarrollo del habla de los niños de primera infancia. El método utilizado fue la denominada revisión documental, con base en una óptica cualitativa de investigación. De igual modo, se desarrolló un rastreo de revistas indexadas, libros validados y tesis de posgrado, con los operadores booleanos AND, OR y NOT. Las categorías que fundamentaron el rastreo fueron ‘Estrategias Didácticas’ y ‘Desarrollo del Habla’; y en cuanto a resultados, se obtuvo un alto grado de exactitud sobre el significado de los conceptos y su proceder en cuanto a estrategias didácticas y desarrollo del habla en entornos educativos. Toda la información que se encontró permitió un mejor entendimiento de la investigación base ya realizada (“La gamificación dinamizando los procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje en la Universidad de San Buenaventura”). Se concluye que de las concepciones emergen a su vez otras subcategorías (didáctica, estrategia, habla, acto locutivo, acto ilocutivo y acto perlocutivo); asimismo, la culminación del rastreo permitió comprender que actualmente se cuenta con muy poco material relacionado con el habla, abordado desde el desarrollo didáctico en la infancia.

A sexualização pela organização civil: o movimento LGBT brasileiro e patriarcado produtor de mercadorias
Authors: Pereira Luiz Ismael
Published: August 2022

Este trabalho apresenta reflexões sobre a relação em o patriarcado e a construção de regulamentações da vida social na modernidade a partir de uma lógica que dissocia o masculino (como razão esclarecida, o valor que se autovaloriza) e feminino (a natureza dominada, o valor-dissociação posto à sombra do valor). Assim, pretendo analisar as pautas do movimento LGBT brasileiro que em sua história tem navegado dentro da lógica da conquista de direitos e, portanto, ainda preso na lógica da dissociação. O referencial teórico em que caminho é a crítica do valor e da dissociação proposto por Roswitha Scholz que, junto à teoria crítica da sociedade construída iniciada por Adorno e Horkheimer, acompanha a análise do gênero como forma social fundamental para compreender a dominação do feminino e de todas as formas sociais que a ele se assemelham, postos ao largo do processo de valorização, localizados no campo do cuidado, carinho, afeto e atenção. Concluo que precisamos repensar os meios de luta política transformadora para além da lógica da organização e regulação jurídicas.

The factor that can determine success in memorizing the Qur'an is the use of methods in memorizing, a good method can have a positive influence on memorizing the Qur'an. Among the methods that can help in memorizing are the Tahsin and Tahfidz methods. The focus of the study is the method used by the MBS Bumiayu Islamic Boarding School in fostering its students in Tahsin and Tahfidz Al-Qur'an. The research was conducted with a qualitative approach, and data collection by interview, documentation and observation techniques. The results of the study found that MBS Bumiayu used several methods in fostering its students in following Tahsin and tahfizd of the Qur'an, namely by reading listening to the ustadz reading verse by verse to be memorized and dividing it into several parts and reading it repeatedly so that it was memorized (juz' i), deposit or listen to the newly memorized memorization to the ustadz (talaqqi) and deposit it into three parts, namely sabqi (new memorization), sabaq (repeated new memorization) and manzi (old memorization), and the other memorization process is by murajaah ( repeating) memorization that has been memorized in order to prevent the loss of memorization and strengthen the memorization that has been memorized so that it becomes mutqien. As a step that makes it easier to memorize is Tahsin the Qur'an, so that students can read the Qur'an according to their makhraj and tajwid and fluently read the Qur'an
