The study investigated musculotendinous adaptations in high and low performance triathletes compared to a control group, using ultrasonography to analyze the Achilles tendon and triceps surae muscles. Only the pennation angle of the medial gastrocnemius muscle showed statistically significant differences between the groups (p = 0.002), with higher values ​​in the control group compared to the triathletes. The pennation angle directly influences the capacity to generate force and muscular endurance, standing out for the greater cross-sectional area in efficiently packed muscle fibers. This study suggests that these adaptations may influence performance and predisposition to injuries in triathletes.

Safety management system: From industrial practice to healthcare facilities
Authors: Vaz Junior Carlos André
Published: July 2024

The history of the chemical industry has been marked by several accidents, resulting in severe loss of life, environmental damage and financial losses. Society and the government began to demand that industries invest in technologies that would prevent new tragedies. However, it soon became clear that accidents were not only linked to the technology used, but also to human error. Understanding human behavior began to be valued. Although industries were safer, accidents continued to occur, now due to management failures. The creation of a management system became necessary. Today, safety management systems are present in sectors as diverse as the chemical industry, mining and civil aviation, with effective improvements in safety. Similar benefits could be obtained in health units. A management system such as that used by the chemical industry can be divided into four areas: “commitment to safety”, “identification of hazards and risks”, “risk management” and “learning from experience”. The first seeks to promote commitment and a culture of safety, as well as to ensure compliance with the relevant legislation and standards. The management system merely complements the national legal and regulatory framework. The identification of accident scenarios, hazards and existing risks is the focus of the second field. The third field deals with the operationalization of the management system in the organization's day-to-day activities, whether through procedures, contractor management, change management, etc. Finally, the last field measures the evolution of safety and promotes the investigation of incidents and accidents. Management systems are tools that can be adapted to the needs of each sector. When implemented properly, they generate significant organizational benefits, reducing operational risk.

Infection in pregnant women can lead to congenital Zika virus syndrome (CZVS), characterized by microcephaly and other severe neurological malformations in newborns. Primary prevention is crucial, given the association between ZIKV and severe neurological complications, requiring ongoing support for those affected.
Health and quality of life: A survey of military personnel from the paratrooper infantry brigade
Authors: Geraldo Carlos Arthur Emerenciano
Published: July 2024

During the careers of military personnel of the Parachute Infantry Brigade, who, due to the needs of their service, are exposed to various stimuli in their activities considered high risk, the physical and mental health of these professionals is essential, as they can be affected by high levels of stress, suggesting impacts on their quality of life. Based on the encouragement of professor Janiara de Lima Medeiros provoked by concerns about the inclusion of the female body in the Agulhas Negras Military Academy, starting in 2018, this research was directed to questions about healthy living in the barracks. The objective of this research was to correlate the stress levels and quality of life of 113 military personnel of the Parachute Infantry Brigade, who are fit for airborne activities. Five instruments were used in this research: free and informed consent form; letter of consent; sociodemographic data; stress inventory (LIPP-2000) and quality of life assessment instrument of the World Health Organization (WHOQOL-100). The results highlighted positive correlations between quality of life, length of service and age, and there was no significant correlation between total stress and quality of life. The limitations of the research are discussed, since it did not include samples from other genders, thus restricting the scope of other possibilities inherent to the researched public, since in its active personnel, we have female representation. Another issue is the size of the sample in relation to the population, since it did not include a sufficient number of participants to achieve a smaller margin of error and a higher level of confidence in the results. We emphasize the importance of a more comprehensive study to verify whether the results found in this study will be maintained in the face of changes in the scenario of this military institution.

Introduction/Study Objectives: The aim of the current study is to assess the rate and extent of absorption of a test and reference formulation containing sitagliptin. Methods: An open-label, balanced, randomized, two-treatment, two-period, two-sequence crossover study was implemented to investigate the pharmacokinetic bioequivalence of a test and reference tablet products both containing a single dose of sitagliptin 100 mg in 28 healthy volunteers under fasting conditions. A total of twenty blood samples were obtained at pre-dose and multiple time intervals post-dose throughout the 48 hours sampling period. Sitagliptin concentrations were analysed using an LC-MS/MS validated method following a solid phase plasma extraction step. Sitagliptin pharmacokinetic parameters estimated with non-compartmental pharmacokinetic analysis were compared between the test and reference formulations with a multivariate analysis of variance. Results and Discussion: The differences between the reference and test formulations in terms of area under the curve, 0 to infinity (AUC0-inf), AUC0-48, and the maximum concentration (Cmax) were found to be not significant. The 90% confidence intervals of sitagliptin Ln-transformed AUC0-inf, AUC0-48, and Cmax, were within the pharmacokinetic bioequivalence acceptance range of 80%–125%. Conclusion: The test formulation of sitagliptin was bioequivalent in terms of exposure to the reference formulation in healthy volunteers under fasting conditions.
Ethnic sensitivity assessments in biosimilar monoclonal antibodies clinical development programmes: necessary or not?
Authors: Athalye Sandeep N , Baruah Dev B , Mittra Shivani , Ranpura Ankit , Kumar Kuldeep , Wolff-Holz Elena
Published: July 2024

Ethnic sensitivity assessments in the form of bridging pharmacokinetics (PK) studies are often needed for biosimilar monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) to meet regulatory requirements in regions like East Asia. However, mAbs exhibit properties that make them less likely to be affected by ethnic differences, as they do not undergo traditional drug-related metabolism like liver and gut metabolism, unlike small molecule drugs. Current literature indicates that ethnicity generally does not influence the PK, pharmacodynamics (PD), safety, and efficacy of most mAbs. For instance, the recommended doses for most mAbs are similar or have no difference between non-Japanese and Japanese patients. Despite these findings, dedicated Ethnic Sensitivity Studies (ESSs) are still routinely required for approval in countries/territory of East Asia such as Japan, South Korea, China and Taiwan. This article argues that such requirements should be reconsidered based on the available data on the reference drug rather than being a default obligation in biosimilar development of mAbs. ESSs are not only questionable but also costly and time-consuming for biosimilar mAbs. Eliminating such a requirement could accelerate the development of biosimilar drugs while maintaining safety and efficacy standards, facilitating access to these life-saving therapies across the globe.

O značenju kvadrata i kruga u neolitskoj ornamentici
Authors: Tasić Nenad
Published: July 2024

Proučavanje praistorije centralnog Balkana tokom poslednjih tridesetak godina dvadesetog veka snažno je obeleženo postojanjem dva potpuno različita viđenja porekla neolitskih kultura sa ovog prostora. Prvi je stav Dragoslava Srejovića, koji je posle otkrića kulture Lepenskog Vira, u sve većoj meri težio povezivanju korena starčevačke kulture sa mezolitskom kulturom đerdapskog prostora. U stvari, Srejovićeva celokupna kulturološka shema ranog i srednjeg neolita srednjeg Balkana bila je pod snažnim uplivom ovog njegovog epohalnog otkrića. Otuda je uvođenje pojmova kao što je Proto-Starčevo imalo za cilj da naglasi genetsku srodnost i kontinuitet razvoja na relaciji mezolit-neolit, odnosno da izrazi autohtonost neolita na prostoru centralnog Balkana. Drugi krug praistoričara bio je okupljen oko Milutina Garašanina, istraživača Anzabegova u Makedoniji, koji je zastupao ideju o bliskim vezama balkanskog neolita sa kulturama anadolskog platoa. Garašaninov dobro poznati termin „balkansko-anadolski kompleks" u osnovi naglašava visoki nivo srodnosti koji bi, po tom stanovištu, trebalo da postoji u materijalnoj i duhovnoj kulturi ova dva regiona.

Breza, poznata po rudniku mrkog uglja, smještena po brežuljkastom terenu na obalama rijeke Stavnje i udaljena oko 30 km sjeverno od Sarajeva, nalazište je antičke nekropole. Breza leži na pruzi Podlugovi - Vareš i sa Sarajevom je povezana cestovnim i željezničkim saobraćajem.
Breza je i od ranije poznata kao arheološko nalazište, posebno po kasnoantičkoj bazilici iz V - VI vijeka n. e., koja ulazi među kulturno – povijesne spomenike jedne dosta slabo istražene epohe. Prikupljeni arheološki materijal iz prvih iskopavanja potaknuo je D. Sergejevskog da 1959. godine obnovi istraživanja bazilike u Brezi, pa su ta iskopavanja imala revizioni karakter.

Značaj sevdalinke za frazeologiju bosanskog jezika
Authors: Meco Zenaida
Published: July 2024

Frazeme su, i prije konstituiranja frazeologije kao posebne naučne discipline, pobuđivale pažnju filologa jer su se isticale kao slikovite i ekspresivne u odnosu na druge riječi i skupove riječi. Međutim, tek se Charles Bally (1865-1947)1 podrobnije pozabavio njima, ukazujući na složenost njihove značenjske strukture te napravivši prvu klasifikaciju. Njega je naslijedio V. V. Vinogradov, koji je najzaslužniji za to što se od druge polovine XX stoljeća do danas ruska frazeologija najintenzivnije izučava.

Authors: A. Sakr Mohamed , A. Seleemah Ayman , F. Kharoob Omnia , Aboelnour Mostafa
Published: July 2024

A finite element model (FEM) was created with the aim of analyzing the behavior of steel fiber reinforced recycled concrete (SFRRC)-filled steel tube columns under combined cyclic loading and monotonic axial load. The FEM considered the effect of steel tube confinement on the inner concrete behavior under cyclic loading. The numerical model was described in detail, with a focus on modeling the materials involved (normal concrete, SFRRC, and steel) under cyclic loading. A constitutive concrete model - with and without considering confinement - was based on utilizing a concrete damaged plasticity (CDP) model. The steel tube - concrete core interface was modeled by a surface-to-surface contact. A stress-strain constitutive concrete model, confined by circular steel tubes, was implemented, and validated using experimental results from the literature. The developed FEM considered various parameters: steel tube thickness, volume ratios of steel fibers, besides strengths of both concrete core and the steel tube. The FEM results showed great similarity to the under- cyclic- loading tested columns. The results indicated that the concrete confining pressure must be considered in CDP model. A good correlation between numerical and experimental findings was obvious, including failure modes, and hysteretic curves of load-displacement.

Authors: Cahyawati Rizki Dian , Erna Marisa Dewi , Sumarni Sumarni , Sazilli Dikha , Mahendra Mahendra
Published: July 2024

The World Health Organization has determined that the average rate of sectio cesarean delivery in a country is around 5-15% per 1,000 births. Sectio cesarean delivery is the process of giving birth surgically by making incisions in the mother's abdomen (laparotomy) and uterus (hysterotomy) to remove the baby. One of the effects of SC is post-SC pain, which is caused by an incision or tear in the tissue of the front abdominal wall. Pain is an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience that results from actual and potential tissue damage, regardless of the nature, pattern, or cause of the pain. This study aims to describe the disturbance of a sense of security and comfort due to pain in post-Sectio Caesarea patients at Sumber Kasih Cirebon Hospital. This study uses a case study method by applying nursing care to the patient Mrs. for assessment, diagnosis, intervention, implementation, and evaluation. The results showed that the patient's comfort and pain disorders could be overcome, with the patient no longer complaining of pain and the pain scale reduced from 5 to 1. Thus, the patient's problem can be said to be resolved. The implications of this study indicate that appropriate nursing interventions can significantly reduce post-sectio cesarean pain, thereby improving the quality of life of postoperative patients.

Interaction Patterns During Block-based Programming Activities Predict Computational Thinking: Analysis of the Differences in Gender, Cognitive Load, Spatial Ability, and Programming Proficiency
Authors: Yusuf Abdullahi , Noor Norah Md , Román-González Marcos
Published: July 2024

The recent advancement in computational thinking (CT) research has reported numerous learning benefits to school-age children. The long-standing perceived difficulty of computer programming has challenged the acquisition of CT skills from programming education. Several block-based programming environments (BBPEs) have been developed to reduce this difficulty and enhance active engagement in computational-related activities. Although numerous studies have examined students’ level of interactions during block-based programming modality (BPM) activities, a major gap in the literature is the paucity of research evidence reporting the association between these interactions and CT. This study, therefore, investigates the association between interaction patterns during BPM activities and CT skills. The present study employed a longitudinal approach where the same participants were observed over eight weeks. Thirty-five, second-year-level computer science and computer education students (mean age: 19.8; male = 23, female = 12) from a research university in Nigeria were recruited. Their computational activities over the study periods were video-recorded. The participants’ CT skills were collected using the computational thinking test and the computational thinking scale. Findings indicate four interaction patterns: learner–learner, learner–content, learner–teacher, and learner–distractor. Learner–learner and learner–content were prevalent. The interaction patterns significantly predict CT skills although significant differences exist across gender, cognitive load, spatial ability, and programming proficiency. The research has provided opportunities for educators to integrate BBPEs in learning programming and CT concepts. Although such integration is likely to occur with the help of strong educational policies, teachers are encouraged to cultivate the spirit of collaboration in students during programming activities.
La RSC de las cooperativas eléctricas españolas en su estrategia de Relaciones Públicas
Authors: Campillo Alhama Concepción , Igual Antón Diego
Published: July 2024

La responsabilidad social corporativa (RSC) se erige como uno de los vectores críticos de relaciones públicas que fomentan la competitividad, el crecimiento de las organizaciones y su reputación. En esta contribución se realiza una aproximación a la responsabilidad social de las 28 cooperativas eléctricas españolas y su integración en las estrategias de relaciones públicas. A través de una investigación descriptiva y exploratoria se establece como objetivo analizar la gestión de la RSC en este sector a partir de la gobernanza corporativa, la implicación con los ODS prioritarios de la Agenda 2030, las relaciones con los grupos de interés, los compromisos adquiridos, la identificación de canales de comunicación y los temas materiales que condicionan la gestión relacional. A partir de este objetivo se aplica la siguiente triangulación metodológica con técnicas de investigación cualitativas y cuantitativas: implementación de un cuestionario ad-hoc semiestructurado, entrevistas en profundidad a expertos sectoriales y análisis de contenido de los informes y memorias de gestión. Como resultados de investigación se constata la escasa implicación con políticas de RSC y la falta de compromiso con los ODS prioritarios por parte de las cooperativas eléctricas. La mayoría de las organizaciones analizadas no facilitan procesos de participación de sus grupos de interés ni integran sus expectativas en la gestión de RSC. Tampoco utilizan suficientemente canales de comunicación bidireccional. A partir de la identificación de 17 temas materiales se realiza una matriz que refleja la prioridad y relevancia que estas organizaciones les otorgan en sus informes corporativos. Se concluye que las cooperativas eléctricas deben planificar estrategias de relaciones públicas que integren en mayor medida la participación y expectativas de sus grupos de interés prioritarios. Y se propone un modelo de comunicación de la RSC para reforzar la gestión estratégica de relaciones públicas en el sector cooperativista eléctrico.

Published: July 2024

In vitro Gametogenesis is an emerging field in biological science which allows a scientist to create human gametes from the DNA contained in a somatic cell. This technology holds promise for the study of fertility problems in both men and women. However, it also has a high potential for immoral use from the Catholic ethical perspective, particularly with its connection to IVF.
