Authors: Panek Tomasz , Zwierzchowski Jan , Kroszka Jan
Published: December 2024

The COVID-19 pandemic led to the lockdown of economies, resulting in the deterioration of the financial situation of numerous households. To support economies and societies, governments implemented various measures involving job protection and financial support. This study aims to assess the changes in the financial situation of households of people aged 50+ during the pandemic. We evaluate the outcome of the introduced national policies, the EU countries’ economic performance, labor market conditions and the individual characteristics of the financial situation of the members of the examined households. To achieve this goal, an original synthetic index was constructed to measure the changes in the overall financial situation of the surveyed group of households. This index combines various indicators, including income, subjective income assessment, the use of savings to finance current consumption and the postponement of bill payments, allowing a comprehensive evaluation of the shifts in the financial status of the 50+ population during the pandemic. Additionally, the study aims to examine how the age of respondents is interlinked with the changes in their financial situation.
Data from the Survey of Health, Ageing, and Retirement in Europe (SHARE), including the SHARE Corona Telephone Survey conducted during the first and the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic were utilized for the analysis. The study's findings show that during the pandemic, the changes in the financial situation of households with people aged 50+ varied across the selected countries. Furthermore, they reveal that both the response to the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic of a given country and its overall development level, as well as the characteristics of the respondents had a diverse impact on the financial situation and ability to cope with the economic risks faced by individuals aged 50+ during the studied period. These findings can serve as a basis for the design of targeted government interventions aiming to mitigate the negative impact of the pandemic on the material situation of this vulnerable age group.
GLACIAL: Granger and Learning-based Causality Analysis for Longitudinal Imaging Studies
Authors: Nguyen Minh , Ngo Gia H. , Sabuncu Mert R.
Published: December 2024

The Granger framework is useful for discovering causal relations in time-varying signals. However, most Granger causality (GC) methods are developed for densely sampled time-series data. A substantially different setting, particularly common in medical imaging, is the longitudinal study design, where multiple subjects are followed and sparsely observed over time. Longitudinal studies commonly track several biomarkers, which are likely governed by nonlinear dynamics that might have subject-specific idiosyncrasies and exhibit both direct and indirect causes. Furthermore, real-world longitudinal data often suffer from widespread missingness. GC methods are not well-suited to handle these issues. In this paper, we propose an approach named GLACIAL (Granger and LeArning-based CausalIty Analysis for Longitudinal studies) to fill this methodological gap by marrying GC with a multi-task neural forecasting model. GLACIAL treats subjects as independent samples and uses the model’s average prediction accuracy on hold-out subjects to probe causal links. Input dropout and model interpolation are used to efficiently learn nonlinear dynamic relationships between a large number of variables and to handle missing values respectively. Extensive simulations and experiments on a real longitudinal medical imaging dataset show GLACIAL beating competitive baselines and confirm its utility.

Authors: Moura Reis Santos Fabíola , Machado de Freitas Lins Neto Ernani , Da Silva Coutinho Iluska Maria
Published: December 2024

O trabalho “As ecologias do Semiárido na tela da TV pública brasileira” analisou a produção noticiosa da TV Caatinga, webtv da Universidade Federal do Vale do São Francisco, exibida na programação da TV Brasil, emissora pública nacional sediada em Brasília. No período analisado, de julho de 2014 a dezembro de 2020, as reportagens da editoria de meio ambiente predominaram nas escolhas feitas pelos editores para serem exibidas em seus telejornais e programas. A questão ambiental relacionada a outras editorias, como a de ecoturismo, também esteve presente nas matérias selecionadas. Os conteúdos que exibiram as ecologias do Semiárido fizeram associações com subtemas como o extrativismo sustentável e a convivência com esses territórios. São produções que não apenas pautam o clima como algo natural, mas também dão visibilidade às tecnologias de vivência no Semiárido de forma ecossustentável, considerando que cada região deve se desenvolver a partir da valorização de suas capacidades e especificidades locais e territoriais. Tais conteúdos elaborados pela TV Caatinga seguem a proposta do Jornalismo Contextualizado com o Semiárido Brasileiro, que exerce um olhar educativo mais amplo e próximo da realidade, sem estereótipos e distorções, considerando todas as especificidades desses territórios. Para avaliar e comparar o conteúdo veiculado na emissora em rede nacional com a versão original enviada, foram utilizados como métodos a análise da materialidade audiovisual e a etnopesquisa contrastiva. O objetivo foi investigar se o material exibido preservou ou não a proposta contextualizada com os territórios semiáridos da versão da TV universitária. Como principal resultado, observou-se que das 18 matérias veiculadas em rede nacional que discutiam o meio ambiente, duas foram parcialmente distorcidas pela TV Brasil e 16 (88,88%) reproduziram a proposta original de abordagem, promovendo uma representação mais próxima da realidade desses territórios, no que diz respeito também às suas ecologias.
natureza como sujeito de direitos na Constituição do Equador de 2008 e a legalização dos mesmos pela Bolívia, em 2021
Authors: Ribeiro de Aquino Lira Lopes Maryângela
Published: December 2024

O presente estudo busca identificar por meio da Constituição do Equador, aprovada mediante referendo popular, passando a vigorar em 20 de outubro de 2008 e da Constituição Boliviana, que buscou construir coletivamente um Estado Unitário Social de Direito Plurinacional, os pressupostos principiológicos e legais para o reconhecimento da natureza como sujeito de direitos, para além do antropocentrismo. Nesse sentido, torna-se, pois, necessária uma mudança urgente no campo jurídico e cultural, considerando que pensar na questão ambiental significa refletir sobre a relação entre o ser social e a natureza, em outras palavras, sobre a relação de igualdade entre o homem e a natureza em si. É necessário ocupar-se das íntimas conexões existentes em todo o mundo natural – de que o Homem é parte integrante. Assim, o texto propõe, a partir da pesquisa documental, com revisão de literatura e análise constitucional, compreender o reconhecimento da natureza como sujeito de direitos e os ensinamentos que daí podem pautar nossa jornada em busca de novos paradigmas jurídicos. Na mesma medida, torna-se imperioso a superação do paradigma antropocêntrico, na proporção em que discorre acerca do respeito pela natureza a partir de uma reflexão sobre o sentido da existência e do processo evolutivo, tanto do universo, como o do cosmo. Ao final, a partir da análise das normas de proteção à natureza ou “Pachamama”, verificou-se, também, que é legalmente possível e necessária a garantia da concessão de uma ampla tutela ecológica, evidenciando a importância da perspectiva ecocêntrica, no sentido de considerar a terra nossa casa comum, sob o manto da Ética Ambiental.

A demonstrative-kinesthetic teaching approach for inverse kinematics of a 4-DOF robot manipulator
Authors: Mabong Griffin , Osore Emmanuel , Cherop Peter
Published: December 2024

Kinesthetic guidance as a paradigm of programming by demonstration of robot manipulators has eased the process of robot programming, especially for non-skilled and semi-skilled shop-floor operators in manufacturing industries. Today, the inverse problem remains an area of interest in robotics, leading up to the deployment of robots for collaborative technology with humans. The paper proposes using a demonstrative-kinesthetic teaching technique to program a robot manipulator, determine the inverse kinematics using the approach, and compare with structured texts to program the manipulator. The approach was carried out on a Dobot magician, a 4-DOF robot manipulator. A control platform was created using MS Visual Studio IDE, using Python to control the arm, and it was programmed demonstratively using the lock arm button and structured texts to carry out a palletizing task. The joint parameters were collected and compared using the demonstrative-kinesthetic technique and structured texts as programming methods. The structured texts were used as a control for the experiment. The results showed that joint values obtained using the demonstrative-kinesthetic technique did not vary significantly from structured texts' joint values. The approach provided an avenue for quickly programming a robot manipulator, especially concerning the non-skilled workforce, and finding analytical solutions to the inverse problem of the robot manipulator.

Published: December 2024

Avocado is a fruit with numerous benefits for the pharmaceutical and agro-industrial sectors.
In recent years, anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum gloesporioides has significantly affected the
crop, leading to reduced production and yield. Chemical control methods have been effective
however have resulted in the development of resistant strains. This study aimed to evaluate the
inhibitory activity of secondary metabolites produced by Burkholderia cepacia against
C. gloesporioides and its potential to promote plant growth in vitro. Various culture media with
different carbon sources were tested to optimize the production of B. cepacia metabolites and
assess their activity against C. gloesporioides on PDA-R2A culture medium. Additionally, the
promotion of plant growth was evaluated through the production of siderophores, phosphate
solubilization, and nitrogen fixation. The results demonstrated that the rhizospheric bacterium
B. cepacia, isolated from avocado cultivar soils, exhibited antagonistic effects on the growth of
C. gloesporioides. For all four media tested whey, glycerol, honey and molasses, significant
statistical differences (p<0.05) were observed. The culture medium supplemented with molasses
exhibited the highest antifungal activity (77.56%) against the pathogen in vitro. The GC-MS
analysis identified pyrrole [12-a] pyrazine-14-dione hexahydro-3-(2-methylpropyl), a compound
capable of deteriorating the cell wall of the pathogen. Furthermore, the bacterium showed the
ability to produce siderophores, solubilize phosphate, and fix nitrogen in vitro. This study
highlights the versatility of B. cepacia in controlling pathogen growth in vitro and suggests its
application could protect crops against diseases by producing volatile secondary metabolites and
promoting plant growth, thus reducing the need for chemical fertilizers.

Published: December 2024

As natural regulators of insect populations, entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) can affect native
species. This research investigates the infection of Carcinopsis sp. wētā by an entomopathogenic
fungus in the Dogny Forest, New Caledonia, and explores associated ecological dynamics.
Molecular characterization revealed that the fungus associated with the wētā belongs to the
entomopathogenic Beauveria malawiensis. A potential secondary pathogen, Trichoderma
uncinatum, was also isolated and grown on a culture medium. The diversity highlights the complex
interactions between fungi and their hosts. The presence of these entomopathogenic fungi on wētā
raises concerns about their potential future use as bioagents against pests. Monitoring and
regulating the transfer of insect materials between the New Caledonia and New Zealand
archipelagos are crucial for wētā conservation efforts. Further research is needed to better
understand the ecological interactions between wētā and fungal pathogens, as well as their
implications for forest ecosystem dynamics. This study underscores the importance of proactive
conservation measures to preserve biodiversity in both archipelagos.

“Onde se encobre a miséria e estado desgraçado do país”: Antônio Muniz de Souza e as máximas para viajantes no Império do Brasil (1843)
Authors: Santos Magno Francisco de Jesus
Published: December 2024

Antônio Muniz de Souza (1782-1857) foi um letrado negro nascido no antigo norte do Brasil e que ao longo da primeira metade do século XIX viajou pelos sertões do Império. Fruto dessas experiências como viajante, ele publicou em 1843 o livro “Máximas e Pensamentos”, obra na qual apresentou algumas orientações para a conduta de homens que tivessem o interesse em viajar pelo país. A partir da mobilização dessa fonte historiográfica, este artigo tem como cerne a compreensão do letrado negro no que diz respeito ao papel atribuído aos viajantes em um país que estava em processo de construção de sua autonomia.

Introduction Both American and European guidelines recommend against routine use of antibiotics prophylaxis in routine cystoscopy. But studies have shown that antibiotics use during cystoscopy is discordant from available guideline recommendations even in Europe and America. This study aims to identify prophylactic antibiotic uses pattern of Nepalese Urologists and measure adherence to guidelines.
MethodsAn online questionnaire based self-reported survey was conducted among the practicing urologists of Nepal, who were full members of Nepalese Association of Urologists. The questionnaires in Google Forms were sent via emails to 96 urologists of Nepal. Fully completed questionnaires were analyzed.
ResultsOut of 96 emails 58 fully filled questionnaires were received and analyzed. Routine prophylactic antibiotics prescription before cystoscopy was reported by 43 (74.1%) urologists. Availability of Antibiotic Stewardship/Antimicrobial Stewardship team at their workplace was reported by 31 (53.4%) urologists and 19 (32.8%) urologists reported of having Standard Operating Procedure regarding peri-procedural antibiotic prophylaxis at their workplace. No verification of the answers were done and reported as received.
ConclusionPeri-procedural antibiotic prophylaxis practice during cystoscopy was highly prevalent.

This study analyzes the impact of government spending and local revenue (PAD) on economic growth in North Sumatra for the period 2014-2023. The analytical method used is multiple linear regression, with t-tests and F-tests to determine the significance of the variables. The results indicate that government spending has a positive but insignificant effect on economic growth, with a coefficient of 2.83. In contrast, PAD shows a negative and significant effect on economic growth, with a coefficient of -2.08. Simultaneously, government spending and PAD have a significant influence on economic growth, with an R-squared value of 65.90%. These findings highlight the need for local governments to optimize spending and enhance the effectiveness of PAD in supporting sustainable economic development.
An Integrated Approach for Design Optimization in AI-Driven CAE

Prior to actual testing, performance evaluation is conducted through Computer-Aided Engineering
(CAE) in design process. The analysis results are scrutinized to verify whether the design meets the
intended performance. If not satisfied, the conditions are modified, and the analysis is iteratively
performed until the desired performance is achieved. However, this iterative process poses challenges
in terms of both time and cost.
To address this, machine learning and deep learning methodologies have been developed.
Nevertheless, some of the existing models focus on identifying a single optimal solution for a given
performance. This focus may overlook the potential to discover diverse sets of design parameters that
can achieve the same performance criteria. In this study, we propose a method that aims to efficiently
identify multiple design parameters that satisfy the desired performance with high accuracy, thereby
reducing the need for iterative processes.
We modify the model to predict various design parameters by applying Monte Carlo dropout and
Bayesian neural network to the tandem network, which outputs only one design parameter fitted to the
training data. Furthermore, we propose a 2-stage methodology for exploring local minima by performing
bayes optimization based on multiple candidate values derived from the tandem network. The proposed
model significantly reduces the number of iterations required for design optimization and predicts
multiple possible design parameters. Experimental results using data from rear-wheel steering and
braking simulations demonstrate the overwhelming performance and diverse design parameters
provided by our proposed model.
ctDNA/MRD Testing for Colon Cancer: A Work in Progress or Ready for Prime-Time Standard of Care?
Authors: Caughey Bennett A. , Parikh Aparna R.
Published: December 2024

In patients with surgically resectable colon cancer (CC), clinicopathologic characteristics translate into cancer staging and predict recurrence risk. Adjuvant chemotherapy reduces the risk of recurrence and is offered to high-risk patients. However, some patients are inevitably overtreated or undertreated; better risk stratification is necessary to improve outcomes after surgery. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA)–based minimum residual disease (MRD) assays sequence plasma cell-free DNA for tumor DNA to predict the presence of otherwise subclinical malignancy. Studies have demonstrated that detectable ctDNA after surgery for CC predicts a high rate of recurrence and improves prognostication. Recent clinical trials show promise for using ctDNA to guide therapy, in particular standard-risk stage II CC. Large, randomized studies evaluating ctDNA-guided adjuvant chemotherapy versus standard of care in stage III CC are ongoing. Current data are insufficient to recommend routine use of ctDNA to guide adjuvant chemotherapy in resectable stage III CC.

Published: December 2024

The aim of this research was to investigate the elements of the indexing policy used by professional cataloguers in a university library system in the Amazon region. The methodology is exploratory and case study, using a questionnaire as an instrument and applied to 36 university libraries of a federal institution. The results obtained from the 12 participating libraries identified the elements of the policy: human resources, clientele, subject coverage, selection and acquisition of source documents, indexing process, document language, level of completeness, search strategy and system evaluation, as well as the absence of an indexing policy formalised in an indexing manual. It is concluded that the development of an indexing policy for the library system could help to systematise the indexing process and optimise retrieval, proposing reflections on indexing policy in the context of the Brazilian Amazon.
