Research Progress of Cryptosporidium Adhesion and Gliding Motility Related Proteins
Authors: Liu Enqi
Published: September 2024

This review focuses on the complex molecular mechanisms involved in the adhesion and gliding motility of Cryptosporidium, emphasizing the importance of these processes in Cryptosporidium infection and summarizing the virulence factors involved. Subsequently, The manuscript meticulously examines the functional profiles and the chronicled research trajectories of adhesion-associated virulence factors, namely CSL, gp40/15, and gp900. In parallel, it explores the repertoire of factors implicated in gliding motility, including TRAP-C1, Cptsp4, and CpROM. Each factor is contextualized within the broader framework of the parasite's engagement with host defenses and its evasion strategies. Moreover, the review prognosticates the prospective research avenues that these factors are poised to influence, offering a measured appraisal of their viability as targets for vaccine and therapeutic development. The discourse encapsulates the current state of knowledge while venturing into the uncharted territories of potential, thereby establishing a robust foundation for future investigative endeavors aimed at demystifying the biological intricacies and pathogenic mechanisms of Cryptosporidium.
Conservative Narratives about Women’s Suffrage in Brazil Between 1933 and 1937: Nuances Regarding the Idea of Emancipation through the Right to Vote
Authors: Westhrop Amy Josephine
Published: September 2024

The aim of this paper is to better understand opinions about the enfranchise-ment of women at the period immediately after the Electoral Code of 1932 until the beginning of the Estado Novo (from 1933 until 1937). It endeavoursto show how different to a so-called democratic progress of the 1930swomen’s suffrage was, through the analysis of the history of other countries and sources of the time (female, Catholic and alternative newspapers). It demonstrates, instead, the existence of movement in the construction of a narrative that puts the vote (and women’s emancipation) aside to adopt a type of persuasion aiming to maintain the status quo, used by both the Catholic Church and political powers
Habitusand Contract: Behind Gender Inequality in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
Authors: Souza Jéser Abílio de , Cordeiro Ana Gabriela de Castro , Santos Raquel Conceição
Published: September 2024

Who can speak for the state? Although the noun ‘diplomat’includesboth genders, diplomacy is not attributed towhat is considered as ‘feminine’ characteristics, nor even with the figure of a woman herself. This article aims to contribute to the discussion in the field of women’s participation in public service, focusing on high-level bureaucracy –more precisely, the diplomatic career. The main question here concerns what lies behind the structural and structuring inequalities in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MRE) and the Rio Branco Institute (Itamaraty), using gender as an analytical lens –but, of course, without disregarding issues of race and sexuality. To this end, we observed (i) the history of women entering thecareer since the beginning of the Brazilian republic; (ii) the practices that constitute the diplomatic habitus and ethos,from initial training at Itamaraty to the arrival at the MRE; and (iii) the racial-sexual contract that circumscribesthe practices of domination in the institution
Reimagining the Social During the Covid-19 Pandemic: Scientific Denialism, Brazilian Diplomacy and the ‘Virus of Communism'
Authors: da Costa Lopes Thiago
Published: September 2024

Examining the circulation of scientific statements during the Covid-19 pandemic in Brazil from an STSperspective, the article argues that the denialism espoused by the far-right diplomatic circles oftheJair Bolsonaro administration must be understood in light of the disputes, which the virus revived, over different forms of imagining the social. Iexamine how the very reality of Covid-19 and the socioeconomic crisis to which it gave rise, urging governments to adopt social protection measures and strong forms of international cooperation, became the object of intense disputes between representatives of the so-called ‘anti-globalism’in Brazil’sdiplomatic institutions
Assessing Healthcare Equity in Orthopaedic Surgery: An Analysis of Over 24,000 Surgical Cases
Authors: Visco Zachary R. , Chaudry Ezan , Hudson John S. , Lim Moe R.
Published: September 2024

Introduction:

Health disparities have been widely studied in the primary care and surgical settings. The purpose of this study was to examine surgical access disparities for orthopaedic surgical cases performed at a large academic health center by comparing the relationship between patient demographic factors and surgical wait time.

Methods:

A total of 24,778 orthopaedic surgical cases from 2018 to 2022 at a public, tertiary care, Level I trauma center were retrospectively analyzed to assess for surgical timing disparities based on patient-specific factors, including race, sex, language, and socioeconomic status.

Results:

Elective surgical cases were completed with an average surgical wait time of 28.11 ± 26.34 days. Urgent surgical cases were completed with an average surgical wait time of 1.23 ± 1.50 days. Patient race, sex, language, and socioeconomic status had no effect on surgical wait time for urgent case scheduling. Female patients had longer average wait times in elective cases, whereas race had a weak association with increased wait time. Two-factor interaction analysis showed no multifactorial effects of patient demographic factors on surgical wait time. Patient race and socioeconomic status were associated with increased distance from surgical sites, although increased distance did not correlate with increased surgical wait time.

Conclusion:

Patient demographic factors did not demonstrate clinically notable associations with surgical timing in this patient cohort, in contrast to previous studies demonstrating the effects of race and socioeconomic status on healthcare outcomes and access. Race and socioeconomic status did correlate with increased distance from surgical centers although distance from surgical sites did not correlate with surgical wait time. This contributes to previous literature on healthcare equity and indicates that surgical wait time may not contribute to the known healthcare inequalities seen in minority and marginalized patients.
Crypte et scène originaire dans le cycle des Aurélia Steiner de Marguerite Duras
Authors: Cassirame Brigitte
Published: September 2024

Les trois versions de l’histoire d’Aurélia Steiner déclinent une même histoire tragique selon des variations incompossibles. Les jeux de croisement à l’œuvre d’un récit à l’autre et le travail du style favorisent le surgissement d’un inconscient du texte. À travers l’espace scriptural au sein duquel elle devient négation d’elle-même, Aurélia Steiner incarne le paradoxe d’une scène primitive non vécue, dont la particularité tient au fait qu’elle n’a jamais vraiment connu l’intimité de ses parents, disparus dans les camps de la mort.
De la disparition d’une lettre
Authors: Malloy Neil
Published: September 2024

Cet article lit les traductions anglaise et américaine du Ravissement de Lol V. Stein réalisées par Eileen Ellenbogen et Richard Seaver comme le prolongement de la dynamique du ravissement à l’œuvre dans le roman de Duras. Entre capture et abandon, l’acte de traduire témoignerait de l’impossibilité de réaliser une fusion érotique et langagière avec une histoire originelle qui échappe toujours. Partant du destin des lettres dans les traductions de langue anglaise – l’absence ou l’expansion de ces éléments stylistiques si essentiels à la poétique durassienne –, l’article étudie les effets qu’impliquent les choix des traducteurs quant aux questions de musicalité, d’identité et d’érotisme. Les différences des deux traductions sont mises au jour à travers l’étude de leurs efforts pour aborder la répétition et le rythme de l’écriture durassienne. La traduction, qui ne peut que trancher dans l’ambivalence du texte source, se lit comme une forme de réappropriation subjective et nécessairement incomplète, une expression renouvelée du désir.
« Tout ce qu’on peut savoir quand on ne sait rien, je le sais »
Authors: Matthey-Jonais Eugénie
Published: September 2024

Le texte La Douleur, de Marguerite Duras, témoigne d’une expérience nuancée du non-savoir qui se retrouve au cœur de l’écrit, dans l’intensité poignante de l’attente de Robert L. par la narratrice, mais aussi dans le paratexte ajouté lors de la publication, en 1985. La préface met en scène un non-savoir du texte par l’auteure avant même que le lecteur soit plongé dans le non-savoir produit par le décalage entre la réalité vécue par la narratrice et les discours d’information, gouvernementaux ou clandestins, qui l’entourent. La disparité entre l’expérience du non-savoir de la narratrice et les discours dominants relayés entre autres par la droite victorieuse fait ressortir une difficulté de penser le politique dans la douleur vive de la fin de la guerre. La perspective philosophique de la narration, basée sur une posture féminine affirmée, est éminemment politique.
Agatha et le corps optique
Authors: Rioual Quentin
Published: September 2024

Cet article est une base de réflexion dramaturgique pour l’interprétation d’Agatha de Marguerite Duras. Il fait l’hypothèse d’une parenté entre l’hypotypose classique et le récit descriptif contenu de la pièce. À partir de là, il étudie comment les caractéristiques rhétorique et stylistique de l’hypotypose permettent de mettre en lumière l’invisible et l’indicible durassiens. Pas à pas, l’article décrypte alors quelques répliques-clés de la pièce en vue de donner des outils de jeu à une interprète. De cette analyse, émergent les notions de corps optique et de corps épiphanique composé et partagé par tous les corps en coprésence dans la salle de théâtre.
« Lire, comme ça ou autrement »
Authors: Larmet Chloé
Published: September 2024

La réflexion qui suit propose de mettre en regard le travail de mise en scène mené par Éric Vigner en 1993 du texte La Pluie d’été avec le modèle du théâtre lu chez Marguerite Duras. Une phrase d’Ernesto, le personnage central du roman de Duras, servira de point de départ pour éprouver l’hypothèse suivante : les mots « lire comme ça ou autrement » constituent un manifeste théâtral pour Duras autant que pour Vigner, un manifeste esthétique et dramaturgique et que l’on décomposera ici en deux temps. Lire, d’abord. Soit placer le geste théâtral sous l’égide de celui de la lecture et nous verrons ainsi de quelle façon Vigner fait du livre de Duras en tant qu’objet l’élément structurant de sa mise en scène. Une fois cet espace du livre établi, nous étudierons comment l’esthétique de Vigner repose sur une logique d’interruption qui permet au lecteur, comme au spectateur de La Pluie d’été, d’exercer sa liberté. Dans ces écarts entre les mots et les corps, quelque chose du geste de l’écriture propre à Duras devient alors sensible, une scène d’écriture qui peut se lire comme ça, ou autrement.
Des interactions verbales aux scènes romanesques chez Marguerite Duras
Authors: Doneux-Daussaint Isabelle
Published: September 2024

La gestion des scènes dans les romans de Marguerite Duras revêt des formes très diverses. Elle peut arborer une vraie forme d’écriture scénique comme dans Le Square où aucun changement ne s’opère entre la version romanesque du texte et la version théâtrale. La scène peut aussi figurer sous le mode d’une absence dans la mesure où les principaux protagonistes en sont absents et ne la vivent qu’avec une conscience perceptive avortée. Cette scène dramatique initiale fait l’objet d’une perpétuelle reconstruction par le langage laissant en permanence échapper « la vérité » sur elle. Celle-ci prend alors la forme d’une scène de conversation. L’article étudie les diverses scènes romanesques durassiennes comme les scènes d’attente, de confidence, de disputes, les scènes érotiques, les scènes de déclaration d’amour, les scènes de rencontre et les scènes mondaines dans leur articulation avec les formes de dialogues (dilogue, trilogue et polylogue) de personnages, dans une optique de pragmatique narrative pour en faire resurgir leur mise en texte et leur rôle dans l’économie des romans. Celles-ci sont généralement traitées en détournement des codes génériques et des attentes des lecteurs.
Marguerite Duras et Françoise Sagan
Authors: Falantin Flavien
Published: September 2024

Cet article analyse les relations entre Françoise Sagan et Marguerite Duras, deux romancières souvent présentées comme rivales. À travers l’examen de leurs œuvres et de leurs influences mutuelles, cette étude met en lumière les différences marquantes dans leurs styles d’écriture et leurs approches littéraires. Elle explore également les similitudes thématiques et les préoccupations communes qui ont façonné leur production littéraire, notamment en ce qui concerne la représentation du désir féminin. En se penchant sur les contextes historiques et culturels dans lesquels elles ont évolué, le présent article souligne l’impact des expériences personnelles et des événements de leur époque sur leur trajectoire respective. Malgré les rivalités médiatiques et les divergences notables dans leurs parcours, il convient ici de mettre en évidence des moments de solidarité qui révèlent la complexité des relations humaines et artistiques après la Seconde Guerre mondiale.
What prevents women from reaching the highest strategic management positions?
Authors: Lara Diana Ivonne Llanos , García Sara Melissa Farro
Published: September 2024

This research examines the underrepresentation of women in corporate leadership positions, noting that despite inclusion initiatives, progress has been modest due to gender stereotypes and the tendency of many women to abandon their careers after motherhood. In Peru, for instance, only 9.59 % of executive positions are held by women, not withstanding governmental efforts. Through a systematic review of 16 studies, the proportion of women in leadership roles, the obstacles they face, and strategies to overcome them were analyzed. Results suggest that a 33 % female presence in managerial roles improves the work environment and performance. The main barriers identified include machismo, gender stereotypes, lack of self-confidence, impostor syndrome, sexualization, and inequality in family responsibilities. To counter these limitations, proposed strategies include fostering sociability, maintaining a resilient attitude, creating support networks among women, implementing gender equity policies, and participating in mentoring and professional development programs. The relevance of these findings lies in their potential to promote greater inclusion in the business sphere and demonstrate that, despite persistent machista ideology, it is feasible to overcome the glass ceiling that restricts women's access to leadership positions.
Spôsoby zásahov do sakrálnych objektov v dejinnom prehľade do konca 19. storočia v slovenskom prostredí. Pokus o typologický pohľad

Interventions in the sacral object have their real causes and are characterized by specific manifestations in the material scope. In following post I want to describe the method of handling the older substance in a historical overview up to the end of the 19th century. Then a qualitative change occurs, requiring a different formal and evaluation approach. The classification of this evaluation is not a cause that conditioned the intervention, but its typological side. The targeted interventions were often repeated during several developmental and stylistic stages. I am interested in the very characteristics of dealing with an older substance in the amterial – spatial and expressive sense. The examples that I present are illustrative, while there are mainly focused on the Slovak country.

The development of perception is very important for children of younger school age. Primary school teachers can also develop it through manipulation activities. One of the important aids in manipulative activities is also a set of geometric shapes created by the Hungarian mathematician Zoltán Pál Dienes called Dienes' s logical block. The aim of the paper is to bring this tool closer, especially to primary school teachers, and to offer them suggestions of thematic units in which they can use Dienes' logical block.

Inspección de Trabajo - Inspección de Migraciones. Relato sobre las tensiones en un modelo de inspección integral.
Authors: ARAGÓN BOMBÍN RAIMUNDO , LOSADA CRESPO BEATRIZ
Published: September 2024

El presente artículo pasa revista al nacimiento y evolución de las Inspecciones de Trabajo y de Migraciones hasta llegar a su configuración actual. Para ello, se analizan dos factores: la normativa que regula su ámbito de actuación y competencias, y los factores que determinan el perfil profesional y su desempeño.
Un modelo de inspección integral, como es el español, se enfrenta al desafío, en el ejercicio de todas sus competencias, de dar una respuesta adecuada tanto a las demandas sociales como a las prioridades que marquen los responsables políticos en cada coyuntura.
El recorrido de su pasado, en el que se han alternado las fases de confluencia con las de dispersión, puede ilustrar la forma de respuesta que debiera darse al reto que el mantenimiento del actual sistema de inspección puede plantear en el futuro.
La guerra de Troya en el "Cancionero de Baena" y sus conexiones historiográficas
Authors: Cuesta Torre María Luzdivina
Published: September 2024

Algunos poetas con obra en el Cancionero de Baena aluden con cierta frecuencia a la guerra de Troya, fundamentalmente mediante menciones a los principales personajes, generalmente con propósitos ligados a la instrucción moral. Entre las fuentes que manejaron para adquirir el conocimiento de esta temática se encontraban, seguramente, obras historiográficas. El propósito de este trabajo es establecer los conocimientos que manifiestan tener los poetas con anterioridad a 1432, determinar si pueden percibirse periodos o fases de interés en el uso de esos motivos literarios, y considerar hasta qué punto estos conocimientos son habituales o más bien exclusivos de un grupo reducido de autores. Paralelamente este trabajo resultará en implicaciones sobre el conocimiento de la guerra de Troya entre las élites cortesanas (público de estas composiciones) en el primer tercio del XV. Para ello se repasan las menciones a los héroes griegos y troyanos y a las protagonistas femeninas, topónimos y gentilicios que aparecen en el Cancionero de Baena. Finalmente se abordará el problema de las correspondencias entre las etapas de interés por la materia de Troya en este cancionero y la lectura y reelaboración en nuevas versiones en prosa en castellano.
Miopia em crianças em fase escolar e a sua relação com o tempo de exposição a telas: uma revisão integrativa
Authors: Farias Laiza Gallo , Oliveira Ivanilson Santos , Pimentel Rodrigo Fernandes Weyll
Published: September 2024

A miopia está se tornando cada vez mais prevalente em todo o mundo e pode aumentar o risco de doenças oculares como glaucoma. A exposição prolongada a telas é um fator de risco que tem sido associado a um maior risco de desenvolvimento de miopia em crianças. Com o crescente uso de dispositivos eletrônicos pelas crianças, é importante entender melhor essa relação e avaliar as práticas de uso de telas para prevenir e tratar a miopia. Há poucos estudos que abordam esta temática no Brasil e no mundo. Este estudo tratou-se de uma análise integrativa, realizada em seis fases, conforme o modelo delineado por Mendes, Silveira e Galvão. A busca/amostragem sistematizada foi realizada por meio da busca eletrônica às bases de dados Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), PubMed, Web of Science (Clarivate), Scientific Electronic Library Online (SCIELO), Scopus e Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS). Descritores controlados do Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) e Descritores em Ciências da Saúde (DeCS) foram utilizados para efetivar a busca bibliográfica nas bases de dados, conforme a seguinte equação: “miopia” or “myopia”  and “Criança” or “Child” and " Tempo de Exposição" or " Níveis Máximos Permitidos” or Threshold Limit Values". Para determinar o nível de evidência dos artigos selecionados, adotou-se a classificação proposta pela Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ). O processo de seleção dos artigos resultou em um total de 139 publicações, sendo 36 excluídos devido à duplicidade, e 100 por não se relacionarem com o tema desta revisão. Foram selecionados seis artigos e os dados foram agrupados em três categorias, a saber: 1- Evidências mistas sobre o tempo de tela e miopia; 2- Impacto do tempo de tela e atividade ao ar livre nas crianças com miopia; 3- Recomendações práticas para mitigar o risco de miopia em crianças. Este estudo considerou que alguns estudos sugerem uma ligação positiva, outros não encontram uma associação significativa, destacando a necessidade de mais pesquisas bem controladas para entender melhor essa relação. Assim ações como: limitar o tempo de tela, incentivar atividades ao ar livre e adotar hábitos visuais saudáveis podem ser estratégias eficazes para mitigar o risco de desenvolvimento de miopia em crianças.

Published: September 2024

Objetivo: O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o tratamento de implantoplastia para redução da adesão bacteriana nas superfícies dos implantes e investigar qual o melhor tipo de broca para realizar a implantoplastia. Materiais e Métodos: Dezoito implantes tiveram um lado da superfície alisada e o outro lado permaneceu com as características originais. Os implantes foram divididos em: Grupo 1 (n=6) broca diamantada, Grupo 2 (n=6) broca carboneto de tungstênio e Grupo 3 (n=6) broca multilaminada. Os implantes foram inoculados em 8 horas de exposição à contaminação com cepa Escherichia coli. A análise da adesão bacteriana foi realizada com Microscopia Eletrônica de Varredura (MEV). Resultados: Aplicou-se o teste t de Student, para comparar o lado tratado com o outro lado sem tratamento.  Observou-se que não houve diferença significativa, Grupo 1 (p=-1,07), Grupo 2 (p=0,91) e Grupo 3 (p=0,47). Para a comparação entre o melhor desempenho das brocas, foi aplicado o teste ANOVA, onde pelo menos uma das brocas apresentou desempenho melhor, o Fcalculado (5,26) foi maior do que o Ftabelado (3,68). Para verificar qual broca teve melhor desempenho, aplicou-se o teste de Turkey, identificando que a broca diamantada era estatisticamente melhor, a DMS (Diferença Mínima Significativa) foi de 28,89. Conclusão: O tratamento de implantoplastia de forma isolada não foi o suficiente para controlar a adesão bacteriana nas superfícies dos implantes tratados e a melhor broca para ser realizada a implantoplastia é a broca diamantada.

Published: September 2024

A literatura científica tem demonstrado o conhecimento fragilizado dos profissionais de enfermagem acerca dos Cuidados Paliativos e seus princípios. Nesta perspectiva, esta revisão de literatura, de abordagem qualitativa, explorou as compreensões da Equipe de Enfermagem em relação aos Cuidados Paliativos. Para realização desta pesquisa, utilizou-se artigos que correspondiam ao recorte temporal de 2018 a 2024, nas bases de dados: Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS) e a Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO). Foram encontrados 64 artigos que, com base em critérios de inclusão e exclusão, e leitura analítica, resultaram na seleção de 05 artigos para compor o corpus desta pesquisa. Sob esse viés, observou-se que a assistência prestada aos pacientes em Cuidados Paliativos, são ações que possuem como objetivo a melhoria da perspectiva de qualidade de vida de pessoas que vivenciam doenças, ausentes de possibilidades terapêuticas de cura, que ameaçam à vida, e de seus familiares, por meio de prevenção e tratamento oportuno e precoce das manifestações clínicas do sofrimento físico, psíquico, espiritual e social. Além disso, evidenciou-se que a literatura científica enfatiza a importância da compreensão da filosofia e dos objetivos dos cuidados paliativos e destaca a necessidade de saber lidar e compreender os pacientes que estão nessa atenção, de forma holística. No entanto, foram identificadas fragilidades nas escolas formadoras dos diferentes níveis de Enfermagem e em especial  na graduação e no exercício da prática de enfermagem, que são essenciais para aprimorar e atualizar o conhecimento dos profissionais no contexto dos Cuidados Paliativos.
Civilization in the Face of Sociology
Authors: Fedorov Valery V.
Published: September 2024

The article is a brief overview of the concepts that exist in sociological science from the moment of its inception to the present and related to civilizational issues. The peculiarities of this branch of knowledge, which arose during the Great Industrial Revolution, in the era of the formation of nation-states, led to the fact that for a long time sociologists did not use a civilizational approach, the idea of civilization prevailed as a certain stage in the development of society, opposing “barbarism”, in the age of Enlightenment (F. Guizot), and in the twentieth century (N. Elias). At the same time, it is possible to identify a certain attitude to civilizational issues in Marxism, and in an alternative approach to it, which the author calls technological (D. Bell, O. Tofler with J. Gelbraith adjacent to them), and in the concept of the “world-system” by I. Wallerstein, and in geoeconomics by F. Braudel. The article analyzes the contribution to the sociology of civilizations of the classics of the civilizational approach (N.Y. Danilevsky, O. Spengler, A. Toynbee, P. Sorokin). Special attention is paid to the “civilizational turn” in sociology in the 1970s, primarily related to the works of Sh. Eisenstadt and continued at the beginning of the XXI century by Aronson, as well as the concept of Russian civilization in the works of sociologists D. Nielsen and I. Yakovenko. The article raises theoretical questions about the civilizational approach from a sociological perspective, first of all, the scientific possibilities to identify specifically cultural and value cores of various civilizations, including Russian, to define Russian civilization in relation to the concepts of Eastern Christian civilization and Soviet civilization, as well as the degree of its universalism and autarkism.
Civilizational Identity and the Identity Politics Agenda: Russian Priorities in a Transforming World Order
Authors: Semenenko Irina S.
Published: September 2024

The author offers a brief overview of the field of identity studies in political research with a focus on the significance of civilizational identity as a key concept relevant for evaluating the dynamics of political identity and the priorities of political agenda setting in a radically transforming world. The paper outlines a conceptual framework for understanding civilizational identity and assesses its role in forming the discursive power of the state and in promoting a development policy agenda. This agenda is activated by identity politics promoted by the state and other political actors to construct and uphold an array of politically significant identities which are important for social cohesion and for implementing national development goals. Correlating tradition and innovation in the social sphere is an important priority for consistent development policies. Russia has longstanding traditions of promoting a civilizational discourse reflecting her place in the Christian world and in the dialogue of cultures and civilizations, with a focus on the pivotal role of the state in social development. The research methodology is based on approaches developed in the field of identity studies. These include both the assessment of identity transformations as changing notions of the self in relation to politics in a fluid social and political environment and the implications these perceptions of societal realities have for current social policies and for promoting political change.
Theatre after Covid : Innovation or Path Dependence?
Authors: Balme Christopher , Eder Thomas , Rowson James
Published: September 2024

Drawing on a mixed methods approach, this paper will present findings from survey data and discourse analysis of materials gathered in the UK, Germany, Switzerland and Austria. It asks the question whether the exogenous shock brought about by the Covid pandemic has prompted theatres to innovate. Starting from the theory of path dependence which suggests that institutional change is extremely difficult, the paper will argue that preliminary findings do indeed point to transformations that affect both technological and institutional dimensions of theatre, particularly in the field of digital infrastructure and knowhow. The differences vary, however, considerably across the countries and theatre systems surveyed which provide a point of departure for a discussion on systemic differences. The surveys also provide some surprising results concerning work satisfaction and income as support programmes ensured that theatre workers could survive and in fact reduced pressure to produce and perform on schedules that were often deemed unsustainable.
INTERCORRÊCIAS EM	TRATAMENTOS HEMODIÁLICOS EM PACIENTES ADULTOS
Authors: De Almeida Bruno Alves , Souza Ana Cristina Matos de , Pontes Naiara Cidade
Published: September 2024

A hemodiálise é uma modalidade terapêutica amplamente utilizada no manejo da insuficiência renal crônica (IRC), que afeta milhões de pessoas em todo o mundo. Este procedimento, que substitui parcialmente as funções dos rins, é vital para a sobrevivência de pacientes cujos rins não conseguem mais desempenhar adequadamente suas funções de filtração e excreção de resíduos metabólicos. No entanto, apesar de ser uma terapia salva-vidas, a hemodiálise não está isenta de complicações, conhecidas como intercorrências, que podem impactar significativamente a qualidade de vida dos pacientes. Intercorrências durante o tratamento hemodialítico podem variar desde eventos leves, como hipotensão e cãibras musculares, até complicações mais graves, como arritmias cardíacas, reações anafiláticas e infecções. A prevalência e a gravidade dessas intercorrências podem ser influenciadas por diversos fatores, incluindo a condição clínica do paciente, a adequação do tratamento, e a existência de comorbidades. Além disso, a repetitividade dessas complicações pode levar ao desgaste físico emocional, tanto dos pacientes quanto dos profissionais de saúde envolvidos no cuidado. Dessa forma, essa pequisa tem como objetivo aprensetar que como a prevenção e cuidados técnicos de assistência da enfermagem tem uma grande responsabilidade pelo paciente renal no momento em que ele está sobre seus cuidados, assim evitando que o mesmo fique hemodinamicamente instável.

Authors: Padilha Artur Hinkelmann , Rossi Arley Silva
Published: September 2024

A detecção e prevenção de vazamentos de gases tóxicos em ambientes industriais são de extrema importância para garantir a segurança dos trabalhadores, uma vez que a exposição a esses gases pode representar sérios riscos à saúde e até mesmo colocar vidas em perigo. Em indústrias onde a manipulação e o armazenamento de substâncias químicas são comuns, a possibilidade de vazamentos de gases tóxicos é uma preocupação constante. A inalação desses gases pode resultar em intoxicação, asfixia e até mesmo morte, destacando a necessidade crítica de sistemas de detecção e alerta eficazes para mitigar esses riscos. Com base nesse cenário, este artigo apresenta uma abordagem inovadora para lidar com esse desafio, utilizando o microcontrolador Arduino e a plataforma Tinkercad para desenvolver e simular um sistema de segurança completo. O sistema é projetado para detectar vazamentos de gases tóxicos e acionar alarmes sonoros, visuais e luminosos, além de ventiladores para dissipação do gás. Os testes realizados demonstraram que o sistema é capaz de ativar os protocolos de segurança necessários de forma rápida e precisa, garantindo uma resposta eficaz em situações de emergência. A implementação deste sistema oferece uma solução eficaz e de baixo custo para melhorar a segurança em ambientes industriais, destacando sua relevância na prevenção de acidentes e na proteção dos trabalhadores, sendo possível criar ambientes de trabalho mais seguros e inclusivos.

Materyal ve Metod: Hastanemizde 2013-2021 yılları arasında trombofili varyant analizi yapılan 955 kişinin moleküler analiz sonuçları geriye dönük olarak incelendi. Kan örnekleri, 4 mL’lik K3EDTA içeren tüplere alındı. Protrombin G20210A, Faktör V Leiden G1691A, MTHFR C677T ve A1298C, PAI-1 4G/5G, Beta Fibrinojen 455G>A, Faktör XIII V34L ve Glikoprotein IIIa L33P varyantları, Qiagen firmasının kitleri kullanılarak pyrosekans yöntemi ile araştırıldı.

Bulgular: Genetik test için laboratuvarımıza gönderilen 955 kişiden 5’inde (%0.5) hiçbir varyant bulunamadı. 950 kişide (%99.5) ise bir veya daha fazla varyant tespit edildi. Toplamda 3085 adet gen varyantı saptandı. Bu varyantların 825’i (%26.7) homozigot, 2260’ı (%73.3) heterozigot olarak belirlendi. En sık rastlanan varyant ise 931 adet (%30.2) ile PAI-1 4G/5G oldu.

Sonuç: Kalıtsal trombofili olduğundan şüphelenilen hastalarda, bölgelere göre en sık görülen varyant dağılımını genetik test ile belirlemek, varyant analizi için istenecek genetik test çeşidi sayısını azaltabilir. Bu sayede, test sonuçlarının alınma süresi ve test maliyeti de düşürülebilir.

Amaç: Klinik laboratuvarlarda kullanılan Altı Sigma metodolojisi; istatistiksel hesaplamalara dayanan, süreç değişkenlerine odaklı, süreç performansı hakkında bilgi sağlayan bir kalite yönetim aracıdır. Bu çalışmada, laboratuvarımızda en çok kullanılan biyokimya ve immunoassay testlerinin analitik süreç performanslarını altı sigma metodolojisi kullanarak değerlendirerek düşük performanslı parametrelerin kalite hedef indeksini ölçmeyi amaçladık.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu çalışma Kayseri Şehir Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi Merkez Biyokimya Laboratuvarında gerçekleştirildi. Rutin biyokimyada en sık çalışılan 24 biyokimya ve 23 immunoassay olmak üzere 47 test parametresinin sigma değerleri hesaplandı. Yüzde bias için 2022 Aralık ayına ait dış kalite kontrol verileri, %CV değerleri için %CV1-%CV2 olmak üzere 2 düzey iç kalite kontrol verileri, TEa(Toplam izin verilebilir hata) oranları için CLIA(Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments)2019 ve RiliBAK(German Guidelines for Quality)’ın belirlediği değerlerden yararlanıldı. Düşük performans gösteren testlerin hata nedenleri, kalite hedef indeksi(QGI) ile değerlendirilmiştir.

Bulgular: Laboratuvarımızda çalışılan biyokimya parametrelerinden sodyum, klor testlerinin en az bir düzeyinde sigma değerleri <3 iken; ALP, AST, CK, kreatinin, GGT, HDL, demir, LDH, magnezyum, fosfor, total protein, trigliserid, üre ve ürik asit testlerinde sigma değerleri ≥6 idi. İmmunoassay parametrelerinden DHEA-S testinin bir düzeyinde sigma değerleri <3 iken; AFP, CA15-3, CA125, CEA, CA19-9, serbest PSA, total PSA, ferritin, insülin, LH, progesteron, prolaktin, parathormon, testosteron, serbest T3, serbest T4, TSH ve B12 testlerinde en az bir düzey sigma değerleri ≥6 idi.

Sonuç: İncelenen testlerimizin büyük kısmı dünya standartlarında kaliteye sahipti ve iyileştirilmesi gereken kalitedeki parametrelerimiz de tespit edildi. Klinik laboratuvarların toplam kalitesinin parçası olan analitik performansın değerlendirilmesi, geliştirilmesi ve takip edilmesinde güvenilir bir yöntem olan sigma metodolojisi kullanılabilir.

Published: September 2024

Amaç: Yasadışı ve kötüye kullanılan madde analizi öncesi yapılan idrar bütünlük testlerinin değerlendirilmesi ve kısıtlılıklarının ortaya konulması amaçlanmıştır.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu retrospektif çalışmada, 1 Ocak 2023 ile 15 Haziran 2023 tarihleri arasında Şanlıurfa Mehmet Akif İnan Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesine bağlı AMATEM laboratuvarında 5495 kişiye ait 8858 idrar numunesinde çalışılan madde analizi (amfetamin, ekstazi, benzodiazepin, esrar, kokain, opiat, eroin ve sentetik kanabinoid-3) ve idrar bütünlük testlerinin (kreatinin, dansite, pH ve nitrit) sonuçları incelendi.

Bulgular: İdrar kreatinin değeri 4.52-20 mg/dL arasında olan 116 dilüsyonlu idrar numunesinin 40'ında (%34.5) madde pozitifliği saptandı. İdrar kreatinin değeri 200-400 mg/dL arasında ve 400 mg/dL üzerinde olan numune sayısı sırasıyla 2915 ve 141 idi ve bunların madde pozitifliği oranı ise sırasıyla %46.1 ve %59.6 idi. İdrar dansitesi 1.001-1.003 arasında olan 32 idrar örneği saptanmış olup, bunların 7'sinde (%21.9) madde pozitifliği bulundu. İdrar dansitesi 1.035 üzerinde olan 345 idrar örneğinin 223'ünde (%64.6) madde pozitifliği tespit edildi.

Sonuç: Bu sonuçlar, dilüe idrar örneklerinde pozitif madde analizi sonuçları görülebileceğinden, idrar örneklerinin dilüe olsa bile çalışılması gerektiğini göstermiştir. Ayrıca bulgularımız, ulusal kılavuzumuzda yapısı değiştirilmiş idrar örnekleri için tanımlanan kreatinin ve dansite kriterlerinin yeniden değerlendirilmesi gerektiğini desteklemektedir.

Study’s Excerpt/Novelty

Assessment of toxic metal concentrations of a widely used traditional herb in Katsina state, was carried out.
Flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry and descriptive statistical analysis was employed in the research.
Pb, Cr, and As were found to be beyond WHO/FAO thresholds.

Full Abstract
There has been an increase in the utilization of traditional herbal drugs for different medications and health care in Katsina state.  This is possibly due to the growing need for complementary disease treatment, relative cheapness, availability, and wider distribution.  Raw samples of a popularly used traditional herb (locally named - Dan Lambar Rimi) were purchased from local markets, prepared, and analyzed using a flame atomic absorption spectrophotometer for Pb, Cr, As, Co, Ni, and Cd concentrations.  The obtained concentrations were then summarized using descriptive statistics in SPSS Version 27.  The results for the elements analyzed were Ni (0.83 ± 0.15), Cd (0.20 ± 0.01), Pb (21.5 ± 6.63), As (2.10 ± 0.70), Cr (2.36 ± 0.37), and Co (1.15 ± 0.22) ppm.  Cr, Pb and As concentrations were greater than the WHO/FAO threshold limits for herbal medicines, while that of Cd was within the recommended threshold.  Furthermore, the concentrations of these metals (As, Cr, and Pb) were greater than the WHO/FAO acceptable threshold in 50% of the herbal samples analyzed.  Therefore, these metals can pose a threat to public health, especially considering the conventional way in which this herbal medicine is used.  With deliberate improvement in hygiene during its preparation prior to consumption, the risk will be brought to a minimal.  Future studies should perform a detailed chemical risk assessment, especially when we look at the increase in the number of diseases of unknown etiology in the region.
The development of flexibility in people of mature age through hatha yoga

Relevance: The level of flexibility development, along with other indicators, determines the level of human health. New approaches to the content of wellness classes for middle-aged and mature people have been developed and substantiated. Physical activity and physical exercises of a health-improving orientation are necessary throughout life. At the same time, each stage of age-related development is characterized by certain features of conducting activities and their orientation. For example, before the age of 35-40, when assimilation processes prevail in the body, classes should have a developmental orientation, and after 40 years - mainly preserving health.

The aim of the study is to increase flexibility in women aged 30-45 years through hatha yoga classes.

Organization and methods of research. The study involved women aged 35 to 45 years old who practiced yoga at the Lanfen studio in Yekaterinburg for 3 months. The generally accepted Indian method of teaching hatha yoga was used, which is characterized by performing a set of "asanas", which are canonized, typical yoga poses, with a delay in each pose from a few seconds to a minute or more with a slow transition from one pose to another. As a rule, the exercises were performed with low intensity using the principle of absolute concentration on the final result of their actions, as well as compliance with the rules of exercise (consistency and breathing).

The results of the study and their discussion. The experimental data obtained in the course of the study allow us to assert that the model of the educational and training process aimed at developing the quality of flexibility, where special attention is paid to warm-up using intensive gymnastics and summing exercises, static-strength and corrective exercises, stretching and relaxation exercises, is really effective in relation to a young age and our climatic conditions. The main provisions of the work can be applied in the professional activities of specialists in the field of recreational physical culture and fitness, in physical culture and wellness work with other population, as well as for the development of flexibility among representatives of various sports.

Conclusions. An experimental technique was developed to improve the quality of flexibility, and a pedagogical experiment was conducted for three months. The technique included joint warm-up, a dynamic complex "Surya Namaskar", 3 main complexes, and restorative asanas with pranayama to improve the quality of flexibility. The technique has shown its effectiveness. The overall flexibility indicators of the women tested increased, especially the mobility of the spine improved, since the spine is primarily rebuilt and stretched in this technique.
Social adaptation of women in sports

Relevance. Professional sports are prestigious. Many athletes choose to engage in sports as their main activity. But age and competition do not allow athletes to stay in their usual place for a long time. The article examines the reasons that can increase the crisis of athletes after the end of their careers. The main psychological problems of athletes are negative states and the need for professional self-determination. Factors aimed at "mitigating" the crisis are also proposed.

The purpose of the study is to develop a system for integrating female athletes into social life.

Organization and methods of research. A sociological study "Women and sports" was conducted. 108 female athletes from Yekaterinburg took part in the survey. The respondents were offered a questionnaire of 22 questions concerning life plans, self-assessment of personal qualities and clarification of the attitude of female athletes to sports. Female athletes from 12 sports took part in the survey.

The results of the study and their discussion. As our study showed, the majority of patients (60% of the respondents) started playing sports in childhood, at the age of 10. A third of the athletes started sports activities at the age of 11-12, and only 3.5% of the respondents joined the sport at the age of 15 and older. The data we have obtained confirm the current trend of rejuvenation of women's sports.

Conclusions. It was revealed that an athlete's adaptation to social life outside of sports depends on the level of results achieved by him: the higher the sports results, the more difficult the social adaptation. Women who have given many years to sports do not regret the decision they once made to play sports and consider it the right one. The results obtained allow us to assert that women in modern society have received new opportunities for the realization of sports interests. There is reason to believe that the 21st century will be the century of their new sporting achievements.
