Authors: Kaneko Hiroyuki , Tosaki Tomoka , Tanaka Kunihiko , Miyamoto Yusuke
Published: August 2023

We present position–position–velocity (PPV) cubes of the physical and chemical properties of the molecular medium in the central 1.2 kpc region of the active galaxy NGC 613 at a PPV resolution of 0.″8 × 0.″8 × 10 km s−1 (0.″8 = ∼68 pc). We used eight molecular lines (13CO(1–0), C18O(1–0), HCN(1–0), HCO+(1–0), CS(2–1), HCN(4–3), HCO+(4–3), and CS(7–6)) obtained with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array. Non-LTE calculation with hierarchical Bayesian inference was used to construct PPV cubes of the gas kinetic temperature (T
kin), molecular hydrogen volume density (

Our first application of the non-LTE method with the hierarchical Bayesian inference to external galaxies yielded compatible results compared with the previous studies of this galaxy, demonstrating the efficacy of this method for application to other galaxies. We examined the correlation between gas surface density

Published: August 2023

Background

End-stage-renal-disease is one of the most common chronic diseases, and peritoneal dialysis constitutes one of the replacement therapies. The aim of this study was to investigate the views of patients on peritoneal dialysis regarding their body image, to assess their quality of life and level of emotional intelligence.

Methods

A cross-sectional study was performed with structured questionnaires. The sample of the study was the patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis and monitored by the nephrology clinics of 7 public hospitals in Greece.

Results

A total of 102 completed questionnaires were collected and analyzed (68% response rate). The participants showed moderate degree of body-image dysphoria (mean = 1.29, SD = 0.94), moderate levels of emotional intelligence and experienced moderate quality of life. According to the statistical analysis, women reported worse body image (p = 0.013) and university graduates showed higher levels of emotionality (p = 0.016). The correlations between the quality of life questionnaire subscales and demographic characteristics revealed statistically significant relationships between marital status and the Physical Functionality subscale, where unmarried people had a better quality of life in this subscale (p = 0.042) and between postgraduate/doctoral degree holders and the subscale Patient Satisfaction (p = 0.035). Also, statistically significant relationships were found between occupation and the Social Interaction subscale, where those engaged in household activities and were unemployed (p = 0.022) showed better quality of life. Participants living in semi-urban areas had better quality of life on the subscale Burden of Kidney Disease (p = 0.034).

Conclusion

ESRD patients on peritoneal dialysis suffer significant limitations related to disease and treatment modality. According to our findings, these affect both their body image as well as their quality of life. Improvement in emotional intelligence is the factor which plays an important mediating role in improving both body image and quality of life in patients on peritoneal dialysis.

Published: August 2023

One of the most common causes of chronic shoulder pain that significantly impairs patients' quality of life is rotator cuff calcific tendinitis. The supportive approach of analgesics, anti-inflammatory medications, and physiotherapy is preferred to treat mild symptoms. However, severe intractable symptoms necessitate alternative treatment, and ultrasonography-guided percutaneous barbotage is regarded as an effective treatment technique due to its minimal invasiveness, low cost, and rapid significant pain relief. Post-barbotage complications are reported as acute calcific bursitis along with infection, bleeding, and tendon rupture. In our case, a 41-year-old female presented with a substantial amount of pain shortly after barbotage, which was diagnosed as acute calcific bursitis, a complication of the procedure. Subacromial-subdeltoid steroid injection was used successfully to treat this condition.
Effectiveness of Virtual Laboratory Teacher Training Workshops: A Kirkpatrick Model Analysis
Authors: Achuthan Krishnashree , Kolil Vysakh Kani , Jyothy S. N.
Published: August 2023

Performing laboratory experiments is an integral and unavoidable part of STEM education. The teaching efficacy of laboratory experiments can be optimized by integrating ICT-based tools into the curriculum. As teachers are the key facilitators in practical lessons, it is imperative that they adopt the latest teaching technologies, such as virtual laboratories (VLs). To achieve optimal student learning outcomes, teachers ideally undergo adequate training programs that equip them with relevant knowledge and skills to utilize VLs. As myriad training workshops and self-learning tools are available to teachers, the efficacy of training programs needs to be precisely evaluated to determine their quality and design better programs for posterity. Kirkpatrick’s four-level model is suited to evaluate teaching training, as it takes into consideration holistic aspects of learning: learners’ reactions, learning outcomes, behavior, and results. In this study, we conducted and evaluated a VL teacher training program in Africa, applying Kirkpatrick’s model analysis. Our results indicate a significant improvement in participants’ perception and attitude toward VL after attending the training. Also, the training proved to be effective in improving the learning outcomes of the participants. We found a huge hike in the number of VL users in Africa after conducting the training program, indicating the overall success of the program. It met the needs of the teachers and equipped them with the necessary skills and knowledge to utilize VLs in their teaching practices. This study may assist future trainers to design successful teacher training programs in laboratory education.

Published: August 2023

Higher education institutions (HEIs) are increasingly relying on digital technologies for classroom and organizational management, but this puts them at higher risk for information and communication (ICT security attacks. Recent studies show that HEIs have experienced more security breaches in ICT security composed of both cybersecurity an information security. A literature review was conducted to identify common ICT security practices in HEIs over the last decade. 11 journal articles were profiled and analyzed, revealing threats to HEIs’ security and protective measures in terms of organizational security, technological security, physical security, and standards and frameworks. Security tools and techniques were grouped into categories with specific ways to protect ICT security. HEIs also implement general security standards and guidelines, such as the ISO 27000-series and Center for Internet Security (CIS) controls, in their framework. Through synthesis and analysis of ICT security tools and techniques among HEIs, this critical review hopes to provide research directions on IT governance that academic and technical administrators can further explore to secure their information resources.
Cuando el niño cuenta el mismo cuento a los 5, 8 y 11 años. Diferencias de las habilidades narrativas
Authors: Garcia-Azkoaga Ines María , Idiazabal Itziar , Larringan Luis Maria
Published: August 2023

Con el doble objetivo de conocer el desarrollo de las capacidades narrativas en euskera y aportar indicaciones para su enseñanza, se analiza la evolución de un niño bilingüe (euskera L1/castellano L2) mediante la narración oral de un mismo cuento narrado en euskera a los 5, 8 y 11 años de edad. Basándonos en la concepción socio-discursiva del lenguaje (Bronckart 1996/2004) se analizan tres aspectos específicos del cuento como género textual: la estructura temática según las tres o cinco fases tradicionales (Adam, 1992), la conexión a través de diferentes organizadores textuales, y los recursos pragmáticos tales como las voces y algunos elementos de modalización. Este análisis detallado muestra que ya a los 5 años, a pesar de las dificultades evidentes, aparecen recursos muy finos para expresar no sólo el argumento del cuento sino también la tensión y el dramatismo que exige el género. A los 8 y 11 años, una mayor corrección gramatical y léxica, y la riqueza de recursos de conexión y de modalización muestran un gran control del cuento oral. Este análisis detallado de la evolución de la capacidad narrativa oral aporta, asimismo, conocimientos necesarios para una intervención didáctica de la enseñanza del euskera en contexto bilingües.

A disciplina Introdução à Língua Brasileira de Sinais para os cursos de graduação da Universidade Federal de Goiás: discussões político-linguísticas a partir do programa curricular da disciplina
Authors: Gonçalves de Freitas Guilherme , Guimarães Faria Juliana , Rogiellyson da Silva Andrade Francisco
Published: August 2023

Este artigo analisa o programa curricular da disciplina Introdução à Língua Brasileira de Sinais ofertada aos cursos de graduação da Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG), com vistas a investigar quais concepções de língua e linguagem norteiam sua formulação e, consequentemente, perceber as implicações que essas abordagens repercutem no processo de ensino-aprendizagem da Libras. Apoiamo-nos em estudos que tratam sobre Políticas Linguísticas no que se refere ao ensino de Libras (Altenhofen, 2013; Brasil, 2002, 2005; Nunes, 2020) e problematizamos algumas praxiologias sobre língua e linguagem (Andrade; Ribeiro; Maia-Vasconcelos, 2021; Koch, 2013; Moita Lopes, 2010). A metodologia tem abordagem qualitativa, a partir da análise de documento. O projeto pedagógico analisado norteia 17 cursos de licenciatura da UFG. Os resultados indicam que as concepções discursivas de língua e linguagem que aparecem no texto da ementa permitem uma discussão de aspectos identitários e ideológicos da Libras; no entanto, as referências bibliográficas que aparecem junto à ementa não são compatíveis com essas concepções. Ademais, a carga horária indicada é insuficiente para alcançar o projeto, sobretudo porque se pressupõe o aprendizado de uma nova língua. Ainda, uma ementa padronizada para diferentes cursos pode ser problemática, visto que não considera as especificidades linguísticas de cada área do saber.

Authors: Bhinde Sagar Mahendrabhai , Bhinde Sonam S. , Shukla Vinay J. , Cholera Meera , Harisha C. R. , Kori Virendra K.
Published: August 2023

BACKGROUND:

Kantakari Avaleha (KA) is a semisolid herbal drugs preparation recommended for various diseases like Hikka (hiccup), Kasa (cough), Shvasha (dyspnoea/asthma), and Shoola (colicky pain) in Sharangdhara Samhita. In this study, KA was slightly modified (after an experiment of classical and intermediate batches) by adding sugar and honey 1.5 and 2 times, respectively, in comparison to the classical method, to overcome its palatability issues in the pediatric age group. It is important to standardize the modified drug to make the drug formulation reproducible. Hence, the present study was aimed to evaluate pharmacognostical and pharmaceutical parameters of the modified Kantakari Avaleha (MKA) prepared for pediatric use.

METHODS:

Preauthenticated raw drugs were procured from pharmacy, ITRA, Jamnagar, Gujarat, India, and two pilot batches and final modified KA were prepared at RSBK Department, ITRA, Jamnagar. Samples from all three Avaleha were evaluated for organoleptic parameters and microbial study; samples from MKA were evaluated for pharmacognocy, physicochemical parameters, and high-performance thin-layer chromatography.

RESULTS:

Taste of MKA was improved compared to classical and intermediate formulations. Stability in terms of microbial overgrowth remains the same as the classical one. All the other evaluated parameters were comparable with Ayurveda Pharmacopeia of India standards except total, reducing and nonreducing sugar content.

CONCLUSION:

MKA was found to be palatable for pediatric use. The pharmacognostical and physico-chemical evaluation of final formulation revealed that this modified formulation meets almost all the pharmacopeial parameters (except sugar content) and hence data of the current study could be used as pharmaceutical standards for this specific MKA. Clinical study will be needed to determine whether the change in the proportion of sugar and honey has a favorable or negative impact on the clinical outcome.

Authors: Singh Yashika , Ansari Amzad , Singh Vidhu , Parhate Saroj , Sharma Rajendra Prasad , Singh Thakur Rakesh
Published: August 2023

Kalyanaka Ghrita (KG) is a polyherbal-medicated Ghrita that is in practice since Vedic times in the traditional system of Indian medicine. Recently, KG was enlisted under the National List of Essential Ayush Medicines, published by the Ministry of Ayush, Government of India, January 2022. Hence, the question always strikes the mind to perceive the historical evolution of KG from the Vedic period to recent times. An extensive literature survey was conducted to search the references of KG in the available Ayurvedic databases to analyze the difference in their herbal ingredients, dose, and therapeutic indications. Total 16 formulations were identified under the name of KG in authoritative textbooks of Ayurveda, with surprisingly similar herbal ingredients and numerous therapeutic indications.

Published: August 2023

BACKGROUND:

Sida veronicifolia Lam. (Malvaceae), popularly known as Nagabala, is a well-known medicinal plant of the Indian system of medicine, traditionally used in a variety of health problems. In spite of the significant pharmacological activities of S. veronicifolia roots, no detailed botanical and chemical work is reported. In the present study, the authors aimed to develop the pharmacognostical and chemical standards using instrumental analytical techniques.

METHODS:

Sophisticated analytical techniques viz. TLC-densitometry, high-performance liquid chromatography, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy were utilized in the present study.

RESULT:

The pharmacognostic parameters, physicochemical parameters, and chemical profiling have provided valuable information as a tool of identification of the plant.

CONCLUSION:

The quality standards developed in this study can serve not only for authentication of S. veronicifolia roots but also discrimination from other roots of Sida genus.
Assessment of the application of double-modified nasopharyngeal airways versus the use of low-flow nasal cannula during pediatric upper gastrointestinal endoscopy: A prospective, randomized, noninferiority, controlled trial
Authors: Hussein Mostafa M. , Amer Akram M. , Maarouf Mohammed M.
Published: August 2023

Background and Aims:

Pediatric upper gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy is commonly performed under deep sedation, which is frequently associated with respiratory complications. The study compared the respiratory benefits of applying bilateral modified nasopharyngeal airways (NPAs) to conventional low-flow nasal cannula (LFNC).

Material and Methods:

Fifty patients scheduled for an upper GI endoscopy under deep sedation, with an American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status I/II, were enrolled in the study. The patients were randomly divided into bilateral NPA group and the LFNC group. Fentanyl and propofol were administered to both groups to maintain deep sedation. After the application of NPA or LFNC, the hypoxic incidents (oxygen saturation [SpO2] <90%) and airway interventions during the procedure were noted and recorded. Other outcomes such as nasopharyngeal injuries, gastroenterologist satisfaction, the incidence of hypotension or bradycardia, and postoperative nausea and vomiting were also compared.

Results:

No significant differences were noted in the demographic data. The incidence of hypoxemia was 16% (n = 4) in the NPA group versus 36% (n = 9) in the LFNC group (P = 0.634). Airway intervention was lower in the NPA group compared to the LFNC group, but the difference was not significant (P = 0.539). No significant differences were noted in the incidence of nasopharyngeal injuries, postoperative nausea and vomiting, bradycardia, and hypotension. The NPA group showed higher gastroenterologist’s satisfaction (P = 0.003).

Conclusion:

Double-modified NPA in pediatric endoscopy was noninferior to the standard LFNC for the incidence of hypoxemia and airway intervention rate, with greater gastroenterologist satisfaction.

Published: August 2023

Target-controlled infusion (TCI) is a novel drug delivery system wherein a microprocessor calculates the rate of drug to be infused based upon the target plasma or effect site concentration set by the operator. It has found its place in the operation theaters and intensive care units (ICUs) for safe administration of intravenous anesthesia and analgosedation using drugs like propofol, dexmedetomidine, opioids, and so on. Operating a TCI device requires the user to have a primitive understanding of drug pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics and an awareness of the practical problems that can arise during its administration. Ongoing research supports their usage in other clinical settings and for various other drugs such as antibiotics, vasopressors, and so on. In this article, we review the underlying principles and commonly used drugs for TCI, the practical aspects of its implementation, and the scope of this technology in future. TCI technology is increasingly being used in the field of anesthesiology and critical care due to the myriad advantages it offers when compared to manual infusions. It is, therefore, essential for the reader to understand the relevant principles and practical aspects related to TCI technology, as well as to be aware of the commonly used TCI models.

Published: August 2023

One of the most contagious illnesses and the second-leading cause of cancer-related death in women is breast cancer. Early detection of tumor is critical for providing healthcare providers with useful clinical information which can help them make a more accurate diagnosis. To accurately diagnose breast cancer, a computer-aided detection (CAD) system that employs machine learning is required. The paper proposes web based tumor prediction system which analyzes different machine learning algorithms for breast tumor classification to determine the best performing model. Different evaluation criteria namely accuracy, ROC AUC, etc are mostly employed for evaluating models but they make the selection of the best model strenuous. A multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) approach has been employed for selecting the best performing model.  Further, a web-based portal has been developed to provide the user interface for this functionality.

Los delitos de mínima lesividad y el cese automático de la prisión preventiva
Authors: Castro Juárez Leomara Junior
Published: August 2023

La investigación se basó en determinar las características que debe tener un delito para ser considerado de mínima lesividad; por ende, otorgársele la cesación automática de la prisión preventiva al amparo del Decreto Legislativo N° 1513; además, determinar si el delito previsto en el artículo 296 del Código Penal, es un delito de mínima lesividad; por consiguiente, los procesados por dicho delito podrían acceder a una cesación automática de prisión preventiva. El escenario de estudios fue el Juzgado de Investigación Preparatoria de Viru, La Libertad. El tipo de investigación es básica, con un diseño basado en la teoría fundamentada; siendo así, que para la obtención de información se realizó el análisis y observación de documentos de 03 procesos por el delito de promoción o favorecimiento al tráfico ilícito de drogas y otros previsto en el artículo 296 del Código Penal, además se ha considerado doctrina del Tribunal Constitucional. Los resultados obtenidos, pudo concluir que no es un delito de mínima lesividad y por consiguiente no se podría acceder a un excarcelación a través de la cesación automática de la prisión preventiva, también se estableció que el artículo 02 del Decreto Legislativo N° 1513, evidenció incongruencias al excluir del cese automático a delitos que por la pena no cabría imponer una prisión preventiva, además, contraviene el artículo 08 de la Constitución Política del Perú, ello respaldado con la Consulta N° 11407-2020 del 02 de junio del 2021 que aprobó el control difuso realizado por el Juzgado de Investigación Preparatoria de Viru.

AS INOVAÇÕES TECNOLÓGICAS NA EDUCAÇÃO
Authors: Pontes Valéria Maria Amorim da Silva
Published: August 2023

Diante das inovações tecnológicas que permeiam o mundo contemporâneo, trazendo mudanças significativas em vários segmentos da sociedade, a escola, enquanto espaço de produção de conhecimento, não pode estar aquém ao aspecto tecnológico em questão. O presente estudo tem por objetivo ressaltar a necessidade de a escola mudar sua maneira de pensar a educação atual e o currículo, inovando suas práticas pedagógicas a partir do uso de tecnologias e novas metodologias, tornando a aprendizagem mais interessante, com aulas mais dinâmicas e interativas. Para que ocorra a integração destas tecnologias ao currículo, o professor tem um papel de fundamental importância de mediar este processo, pois a tecnologia sozinha não garante de fato uma aprendizagem significativa. Como exemplo, um relato de experiência com a utilização da plataforma Kahoot, foi citado como prática inovadora para auxiliar no processo de ensino e aprendizagem. A metodologia utilizada foi a pesquisa bibliográfica centrada em artigos científicos. Com esta pesquisa foi possível concluir que as novas gerações, estão cada vez mais conectadas e a escola precisa fazer uso de novas metodologias e tecnologias, tornando o ensino mais dinâmico e atrativo, para motivar os alunos e aumentar a participação e engajamento dos mesmos para aquisição e construção do conhecimento.

Published: August 2023

A pesquisa objetivou a analisar o design instrucional no desenvolvimento na efetivação da aprendizagem autogerida. O qual foi contemplado através da revisão bibliográfica em si e no caso escolhido e apresentado no estudo. Este paper teve como metodologia a revisão bibliográfica realizada a partir do referencial teórico abordado na disciplina e selecionado de acordo com as discussões sobre o contexto da disciplina EDU621 – PRINCPIPIOS DO DESIGN INSTRUCIONAL. Para o desenvolvimento do estudo, foram utilizados os descritores “Aprendizagem Autogerida”, e “Design Instrucional” nas bases de dados do portal de periódicos da CAPES/MEC e Google Acadêmico. Considerando alguns critérios de inclusão para serem utilizados, como: artigos publicados no período de 2018 a 2023; em periódicos nacionais, na área da educação, publicados em português e que se encontravam na íntegra e com os devidos endereços eletrônicos abertos ao público sem a necessidade de cadastros para acesso. Percebeu-se durante a pesquisa que a aprendizagem ocorre de várias maneiras e a visão da aprendizagem determina o tipo de material ou atividades que devem ser utilizados no ambiente do Design Instrucional. Partindo desse pressuposto, constatou-se que a aprendizagem autodirigida permite que um grande número de alunos conclua cursos de forma síncrona e assíncrona, pois o aprendizado torna-se mais flexível e os treinamentos podem ser realizados em horários diferenciados, o tempo necessário para oferecer o curso se maximiza. Deste modo, a aprendizagem autogerida e sua possibilidade de alcance flexível e amplo, dentro das possibilidades de professo, aluno e instituição se mostrou de extrema relevância.

Microglial activity is crucial in maintaining the central nervous system (CNS) homeostasis. However, prolonged microglial activation have been implicated in the pathology of neurodegenerative diseases. Activated microglia will increase the production of inflammatory cytokines, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and alter their surface marker expression levels. This study used Malaysian honey, Tualang honey (TH), and Kelulut honey (KH) to determine lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated inflammatory responses of microglia. TH and KH at 0.1% were used in the current study as our findings showed no significant difference in the cell viability between BV2 cells treated with 0.1 % of TH and KH and control group. TH and KH reduced the ROS level significantly by 41.62±1.06% and 49.16±0.63%, respectively, and slightly reduced the expression of co-stimulatory molecules, CD40 and CD11b in LPS-activated BV2 cells. Our preliminary findings proposed an in-depth future study on the anti-inflammatory effect of TH and KH on microglial activation.
