Objectives: To analyze brain death (BD) notifications received by Central de Transplantes (CET) in the state of Roraima (RR) from 2017 to 2021. Methods: This is a cross-sectional, quantitative, and observational study, where all notifications received by CET from 2017 to 2021 were analyzed, resulting in 120 patients from health the following centers: Hospital Geral de Roraima (HGR), Hospital Confederação Nacional das Cooperativas Médicas (UNIMED), Hospital da Criança Santo Antônio (HCSA), Hospital das Clínicas (HC), and Hospital Lotty Íris (HLI). The data were collected from the center’s data management system and passed on to the collection form developed by the researcher. Results: This study analyzed 119 notifications after excluding one due to conflicting data. There was a predominance of males (58%), with traumatic brain injury being the most frequent cause of BD. Six organ harvestings were carried out, all at the HGR. This study found no significant associations between organ procurement and sex, age, place of hospitalization, and year. Conclusion: There are considerable challenges concerning organ donation in RR, with a low uptake rate over five years. Only the HGR successfully carried out organ harvesting, while other reporting hospitals were unsuccessful. Improvements are needed, highlighting the importance of more studies for a more in-depth data analysis.

Published: May 2024

The purpose of this research is to analyze and describe the plyometric training of university students in the professional career of physical education. The design is non-experimental, cross-sectional of the descriptive type whose approach is of the quantitative type. The data collection was done through an intentional online survey in which 885 university students participated and responded to eight items voluntarily and anonymously. The results show that university students who practice sports have the desire to want to represent their institution for which they use various plyometric methods for their workouts or daily routines in an informal way that keeps them in a competitive physical state at a regional or national level but not for a competition at an international level. Conclusion. University students perform their own workouts because they believe they have experience in training which is false that is, they themselves create their own daily routines without a professional trainer.  They also need an adequate place equipped with trainers with experience in national or international competitions to improve their physical performance. This research has implications for the students because they have to adapt to the rhythm of plyometric exercises to be fit in any national or international competition and the implications for the teachers are that they must take into account which competition they want to participate in to be able to train them as appropriate.
Literary text and historical discourse: A questionnaire study
Authors: Zhakulayev Adil , Takirov Sarzhan , Khassenov Bolat
Published: May 2024

This article explores historical discourse in a literary text from a fresh perspective through an experiment. We compiled the experiment’s questions in a Google Form, drawing inspiration from Askar Altai’s "The Hunchbak." The main emphasis in formulating the questions was placed on the category of historical figures in historical discourse. 23 students of Karaganda Buketov University, aged 19-22, voluntarily took part in our experiment. We chose a descriptive method for data analysis in the study. Using this method, three levels of reader perception (simple, medium, and high) are fully analyzed. As a result of the research, it was found that the vast majority of the survey participants fully understood the text of the literary work, thought about the subtext (indirect meaning) in it, analyzed the text from the point of view of their own knowledge, analyzed the author's position, and tried to express their thoughts. This indicates that the reader’s perceived level of comprehension is moderate. At the same time, the study showed that in the minds of the youth of the postcolonial country there are still some manifestations of ‘colonialism’; it is concluded that for the full recovery of a postcolonial country from ‘colonial diseases’, the full revival of historical consciousness, school programs and textbooks should be revised in Kazakhstan, and colleges and universities should have a systematic, fundamental state program for a long period (25 years).

Published: May 2024

This paper investigates the relationship between information and communication used by users on electronic commerce platforms. This study is underpinned by the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) to understand the factors contributing to electronic users' intention to use online shopping platforms. The primary data was collected using a self-administrated online survey from 422 respondents of online electronic commerce shopping users and analyzed using Statistical Packages for Social Science (SPSS) version 28. Empirically, this study shows that trust between e-commerce users in the digital platform as a medium, consumers’ intention to use the digital platform to make purchases  and consumers’ behavioural attitudes significantly influence consumers’ intention to use online shopping platforms. The study's premises on user trust are beneficial for regulators, online business owners and the government because they help them identify the traits that give customers more confidence to use electronic commerce transactions. This study suggests that users’ trust in the information provided when dealing through electronic commerce transactions is vital for the parties involved. This study provides a theoretical framework for future research to examine the effect of these factors and determine the influence of  diversification on electronic commerce behaviour.

We introduce the concept of cosine trigonometric q-rung Diophantine neutrosophic interval-valued set (CosTq-rung DioNSIVS). The fact that CosTq-rung DioNSIVS combines q-rung neutrosophic interval-valued set, q-rung neutrosophic set and neutrosophic interval-valued set is one of its distinguishing characteristics. A new idea of CosTq-rung DioNSIVWA, CosTq-rung DioNSIVWG, GCosTq-rung DioNSIVWA and GCosTq-rung DioNSIVWG is proposed in this study. We also look at the idempotency, boundedness, commutativity, and monotonicity of the CosTq-rung DioNSIVS based on algebraic operations. We considered new kinds of two distances in the proposed models, besides Euclidean and Hamming distances. The CosTq-rung DioNSIVS method was used to analyze the cosine trigonometric aggregation procedures. The study's concluding results include several fascinating and captivating discoveries.

Authors: Al Moray Nouf Ali
Published: May 2024

The study measured the extent of the implementation of twenty-first-century skills in grade eight math curriculum in public schools in the Kingdom of Bahrain, and it included all Cycle Three Mathematics Books (or curriculum) for the academic year (2022-2023). The researcher chose grade eight mathematics books in the first and second semesters as a sample for her study; furthermore, the research was conducted using the descriptive-analytical method to analyze the contents of the books using a content-analysis card. The results showed a very high percentage (92.20%) of twenty-first-century skills integration in eighth-grade math books; as a result, the percentage of technical literacy was (14.5%), and the rate of local and global citizenship skills was the lowest (7.6%). In addition, the results showed close ratios between critical thinking, creativity and problemsolving, leadership, and decision-making (13.1% – 13.7%). The math curriculum directs learners to access information through digital technologies and includes different mathematical problems in which digital technologies are used to achieve solutions with the highest percentage (25%- 23.6%). However, it was immediately apparent that the math curriculum content failed to motivate learners to develop their skills concerning environmental sustainability (7.8%) and negotiation skills (7.9%). Overall, the literature showed that the widespread opportunity for 21st-century skills in the mathematics curriculum impacts students’ abilities to obtain high grades in the TIMSS exams. This suggests that integrating science, technology, engineering, and mathematics education into mathematics curricula can provide convenience for students to evolve 21st-century skills in a consequential and effective way.

Published: May 2024

Considering that cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and erectile dysfunction (ED) have many common risk factors and pathophysiology, we aimed to determine whether remnant cholesterol (RC) is associated with ED. Patients who were diagnosed with ED and examined with any other andrological complaints between January 2022 and December 2023 in our outpatient clinic were retrospectively reviewed. The erectile function of the participants was evaluated using the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-15) form. Fasting blood glucose (FBS), hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), total testosterone, body mass index (BMI) and RC were calculated and recorded. Patients were categorized as having ED (Group 1) and not having ED (Group 2) according to the erectile function score of the IIEF-15 questionnaire. The mean age of the participants included in the study was 46.93±12.29 years. There were 160 (58.6%) patients in Group 1 and 113 (41.4%) patients in Group 2. Age, BMI, FBS and HbA1c levels were significantly higher in Group 1 (p=0.001; p=0.013; p=0.009; p=0.001, respectively). HDL cholesterol level was significantly lower in Group 1 (p=0.008). The mean RC level was 35.7±21.3 mg/dL in Group 1 and 31.8±19.4 mg/dL in Group 2 and was comparable between the two groups (p=0.123). In our study, although the RC level was found to be higher in the ED group, it did not reach a statistically significant level. Further prospective studies with larger sample size are needed.

O presente estudo teve como objetivo geral: comparar o perfil de assistência do profissional da enfermagem nas regiões do Brasil em relação a violência contra mulher. E foram objetivos específicos: levantar dados sobre os casos de violência contra a mulher nos estados do Brasil e a assistência de enfermagem prestada a elas; comparar índices de casos de violência contra a mulher e como foram assistidas; elaborar estratégias para auxiliar na assistência a mulher nas regiões do Brasil.Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa da literatura. Os resultados indicam que a violência contra a mulher pode ser definida como qualquer ação de agressão ou negligência que resulte em danos psicológicos, físicos ou sexuais, incluindo ameaças e interferências na liberdade, independentemente do ambiente onde ocorra. Discute possíveis razões para o aumento dos índices de violência contra a mulher no Brasil nos últimos anos. Ele destaca a redução significativa do orçamento público federal para políticas de enfrentamento à violência contra as mulheres durante o governo Bolsonaro, que o COVID-19 pode ter contribuído para o aumento da violência doméstica, devido a necesidade de de isolamento social resultando na redução do controle social sobre tais violências. A enfermagem desempenha um papel crucial nesse contexto porem pesquisas apontam lacunas na capacitação das equipes de saúde, com profissionais muitas vezes se sentindo despreparados para oferecer o suporte necessário às vítimas. A falta de treinamento adequado resulta em um atendimento distante das necessidades específicas de cada vítima.

Pontos de contato, fontes de conflito: o microcosmos da experiência imperialista em Cuba
Authors: Leite Maria do Carmo Luiz Caldas
Published: May 2024

Resumo: A República em Cuba surgiu como resultado de 30 anos de lutas, quando pereceram cerca de 400 mil cubanos, ou seja, um terço da população do país na época. A Guerra de Independência sinalizou o empenho dos EUA em afirmar seus interesses econômicos e geopolíticos, culminando na ocupação militar de Cuba (1898 – 1902) e nas tentativas contínuas de processos de norte-americanização da Ilha, que tiveram um impacto decisivo na forma pela qual os estadunidenses passaram a projetar seu poder para fora de suas fronteiras. Contudo, a efusão modernizante da capital cubana não conseguiu conter a escalada de conflitos e as revoluções inconclusas durante o prolongado encontro dos cubanos de todas as classes com os vizinhos do norte nas primeiras décadas do século XX.

Os Limites Estruturais do Capital de Mészáros e os Limites da Guerra à China
Authors: Spellmann Samuel
Published: May 2024

Analistas críticos da Economia Política têm abordado as similaridades entre o confronto hegemônico EUA-China enquanto paralelos contemporâneos de rivalidades globais anteriores, as quais levaram ao conflito aberto. Percebendo os padrões distintos por meio dos quais a crise capitalista se apresenta, István Mészáros propôs uma elaboração teórica ligando a característica superprodutiva da crise às condições materiais apresentadas pela reprodução capitalista inserida numa biosfera limitada e com seres humanos existentes, concretos. O Capitalismo, portanto, não poderia ser reformado para além dos seus limites físicos. Este artigo objetiva apresentar uma reinterpretação parcial da tese dos anos 1980 de Mészáros sobre a Crise Estrutural do Capital. Este artigo observa os desenvolvimentos próprios da guerra nuclear, abordando a contradição entre a necessidade de guerra enquanto um meio de dispor de capital excedente e a existência de armas atômicas como um outro limite estrutural. Isto é feito de modo a propor uma adição à lista de quatro limites exprimidos enquanto contradições à reprodução capitalista de Mészáros, que acarretaram a crise estrutural do capital que segue até hoje.

The application value of the lecture-based learning (LBL) and team-based learning (TBL) dual-track mode for internship in the clinical immunology subgroup of the laboratory department was evaluated in conjunction with the current undergraduate education mode of clinical laboratory technology in China, to provide a more efficient method for enhancing the comprehensive ability of interns in the laboratory department. Methods: A total of 61 laboratory interns from the grade 2017 of Southwest Medical University in China were collected and randomly divided into two groups: A and B. The group A adopted the traditional LBL teaching mode, and group B used the LBL-TBL dual-track teaching mode. The students' comprehensive abilities such as theoretical knowledge and experimental skills under the teaching models were compared. And finally the teaching effect was evaluated by theoretical assessment and questionnaire. Results: The satisfaction rate of group B was remarkably higher than that of group A in terms of analyzing skills, problems-solving ability and clinical operation (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups involving in theoretical achievement levels (P > 0.05), but group B had a greater satisfaction rate than group A for enhancing theoretical knowledge acquisition. Conclusions: The LBL-TBL dual-track teaching mode plays a positive role for the internship in the laboratory department, which helps to improve the independent learning capability, analyzing skills and problems-solving ability. The LBL-TBL dual-track teaching method is worth further promotion in clinical immunology practice of the laboratory department.
