IMPACTO DO PLANEJAMENTO VIRTUAL NA CONFECÇÃO DE GUIAS CIRÚRGICAS PARA COLOCAÇÃO DE IMPLANTES DENTÁRIOS: UMA ANÁLISE DE PRECISÃO E EFICÁCIA
Authors: Soares Alanna Freitas , Lopes Luiz Rodrigo Côrtes
Published: January 2025

Este estudo bibliográfico investiga o impacto do uso de planejamento virtual na confecção de guias cirúrgicas para colocação de implantes dentários, comparando sua eficácia e precisão com métodos convencionais. O avanço da tecnologia de planejamento virtual na odontologia levanta questões sobre seus efeitos nos resultados clínicos. O estudo examina a precisão na posição do implante, o tempo cirúrgico, a taxa de sucesso e as complicações pós-operatórias como principais métricas de avaliação. A análise de estudos relevantes indica que o uso de planejamento virtual tende a resultar em maior precisão na posição do implante, redução do tempo cirúrgico e potencial aumento da taxa de sucesso. No entanto, são necessárias mais pesquisas para validar consistentemente esses achados e avaliar possíveis desafios associados à adoção dessa tecnologia. Os resultados desta análise contribuem para a compreensão dos benefícios e limitações do planejamento virtual na odontologia e podem informar práticas clínicas para melhorar a eficácia da colocação de implantes dentários.
MARIA AUXILIADORA E NICE AVANZA: CLASSIFICAÇÕES DE DETERMINADAS PRODUÇÕES
Authors: Pereira Aline da Conceição , Cardoso Renata Gomes
Published: January 2025

O presente artigo[1] fala sobre as artistas Maria Auxiliadora (1935-1974) e Nice Avanza (1938-1999), ambas mulheres negras, cujas trajetórias e obras são aqui enfocadas para analisar os processos de circulação e reconhecimento de artistas autodidatas no cenário artístico brasileiro. Propõe-se, portanto, apresentar uma reflexão sobre as categorias arte popular, naïf e arte erudita, observando como Maria Auxiliadora e Nice Avanza se relacionam com tais categorias, por meio de obras que abordavam temas contemporâneos e relevantes, como a cultura afro-brasileira. Suas obras tiveram reconhecimento internacional, o que indica a necessidade de observar como a recepção crítica nacional e internacional abordou tais categorias para inseri-las em discussões sobre arte brasileira. Para tal abordagem comparativa, a pesquisa percorreu fontes sobre as artistas que incluem entrevistas, documentários, catálogos de exposições, bem como a autores que discutem as categorias mencionadas no contexto da história da arte. Ao final do estudo é apontada a possibilidade para reavaliar o uso de determinados rótulos, no sentido de destacar a importância da diversidade na representação cultural da arte brasileira.

TOPONÍMIA DOS ACIDENTES HUMANOS RURAIS DOS MUNICÍPIOS DA REGIÃO IMEDIATA DE NAVIRAÍ-MUNDO NOVO/MS
Authors: Silva Silmara Cristina Batista da , Isquerdo Aparecida Negri
Published: January 2025

A palavra nomeia os seres e as coisas existentes no mundo e, desde os tempos mais remotos, desempenha o papel de agente transformador e revelador das realidades presentes na sociedade. Por meio da palavra, concretizam-se a cultura de um povo, as variações linguísticas e toda a história que conhecemos e identificamos. Assim, é possível afirmar que o ser humano se reconhece como um ser social a partir da linguagem. Em outras palavras, a língua transforma o indivíduo em um agente ativo e fundamental no processo de construção de sua identidade. Nesse sentido, a língua desempenha um papel primordial ao promover a ascensão humana, eternizando os registros históricos e culturais de um povo. Este trabalho tem como objetivo discutir resultados de uma pesquisa realizada sobre a denominação dos acidentes humanos rurais da Região Geográfica Imediata de Naviraí-Mundo Novo/MS. O estudo analisa a motivação, a língua de origem e a estrutura morfológica das denominações atribuídas a esses acidentes humanos. O estudo fundamenta-se principalmente em contribuições de Dick (1990; 1992; 1998); Sapir (1969); Laraia (2008) e Duranti (2000). Os resultados indicaram que 25,69% dos topônimos pertencem à taxonomia hagiotoponímica; 11,11% enquadram-se na categoria de antropotopônimos e 9,38% são classificados como animotopônimos eufóricos. O processo denominativo dos acidentes humanos rurais da região investigada reflete a valorização da crença em santos relacionados à hagiologia católica, bem como a influência dos grupos sociais que inicialmente fixaram residência na área geográfica investigada.

Authors: Júnior José Saraiva Plácido , Bassani Marcel Antonio Arcari
Published: January 2025

O presente estudo tem como objetivo investigar a utilização de técnicas de agrupamento não supervisionado para determinar agrupamentos dos teores de ouro da Mina da Posse. Devido o banco de dados utilizado apresentar apenas dados de análise química, foram realizados testes de algoritmos de agrupamento não supervisionados e validações por algoritmos que utilizam aprendizado de máquina para determinar as principais correlações químicas e seus comportamentos geoespaciais, tendo em vistas estudos geometalúrgicos. Os grupos obtidos por esses algoritmos foram comparados contra os grupos obtidos da maneira tradicional, que considera apenas os teores de ouro. Os resultados mostraram que o método de agrupamento no espaço duplo teve a melhor definição de domínios. Com formação de grupos distintos que possuem teores de Au semelhantes, mas diferentes correlações entre o Au e os demais elementos analisados. Esses diferentes grupos podem, por meio de estudos geometalúrgicos posteriores, fornecer informações importantes para a tomada de decisão no planejamento de mina.
Biografías colaborativas: construyendo la memoria colectiva a través de fotografías compartidas
Authors:   Universidad de A Coruña, Rodríguez-Rodríguez Carmen , Santiago-Gómez Elvira ,   Universidad de A Coruña
Published: January 2025

En este capítulo se propone un acercamiento al estudio de dos casos en los que se produce la construcción de «Biografías colaborativas». En un contexto de erosión del estado de bienestar y crisis del vínculo social en Europa, en el que se produce una desintegración económica y social del rural, resulta significativo observar cómo se crean iniciativas de diversa envergadura para paliar las problemáticas derivadas del panorama actual como la desintegración social producida por el éxodo rural, la emigración y el individualismo. Las transformaciones en el tejido social generan acciones de resistencia para intentar recuperar un control que se nos escapa. La Acción Colectiva Colaborativa (ACC) que se desencadena con este fin puede desarrollarse de muchas formas, algunas llamativas y espectaculares, otras cotidianas y aparentemente prosaicas. Tomamos un ejemplo de este último tipo de ACC para comprobar cómo un proyecto comunitario, aparentemente sencillo, tiene efectos complejos sobre las formas de movilización, las prácticas y los vínculos sociales, entreverando tradición y modernidad para poder sobrevivir como comunidad. El caso de estudio nos permite observar cómo, desde una práctica micro, podemos ver reflejado lo macro, reconociendo elementos que, a distinta escala, nos hablan de experiencias comunes.
La sociedad colaborativa. Los impactos de la acción colectiva en la sociedad contemporánea
Authors:   Universidad Pública de Navarra, Aliende Urtasun Ana , Castelló-Cogollos Rafael ,   Universidad de Valencia, Llopis Goig Ramón ,   Universidad de Valencia
Published: January 2025

En un contexto de crisis, cambio climático y reformulación de los sopor-tes y vínculos sociales, las prácticas colaborativas tejen relaciones innovadoras en distintos ámbitos de la acción colectiva, como, por ejemplo, el consumo y la alimentación; la política y la movilización; la identidad y la memoria; la ciencia, el arte y la tecnología; el espacio urbano y rural; el trabajo; el género; la vivienda, el cuerpo y los cuidados.Este libro analiza experiencias sociales que ayudan a visibilizar y comprender tramas de cooperación cotidianas, donde se desarrollan habilidades, se generan diálogos y se conforman apoyos junto a otros y otras, compartiendo vulnerabilidades y generando resistencias y alternativas.Sobre los puentes de la mutualidad de épocas pasadas, ahora desmantelados, se exploran nuevas asociaciones que recogen inquietudes y situaciones compartidas que las personas individuales no alcanzan a contestar solas. Los ejemplos analizados en este libro muestran que la colaboración no se basa, exclusivamente, en el principio de equivalencia, en valores de cambio y valores de uso equitativamente aportados o apropiados. La colaboración deja en los y las participantes, un «resto» que no es completamente traducible al nivel del compromiso o de la aportación de quienes colaboran en la acción colectiva. Si, como escribe Eva Illouz, una crítica posnormativa «cambia con la naturaleza misma de lo que crítica», hay repeticiones en los casos estudiados que constituyen piezas angulares para generar pensamiento crítico sobre la acción colectiva colaborativa. Y, por tanto, también para contribuir a configurar una sociedad colaborativa acorde con los cambios sociales de nuestro tiempo.
Prorrateo electoral sin reglas en el Parlamento Europeo: una propuesta de fórmulas de proporcionalidad decreciente
Authors:   Universidad de Granada, Ramírez González Victoriano , Ortega Villodres Carmen ,   Universidad de Granada, Palomares Bautista Antonio ,   Universidad de Granada
Published: January 2025

En este capítulo se propone una familia paramétrica de métodos para hacer
un reparto de escaños decrecientemente proporcional entre los Estados. Estos métodos
distribuyen de forma diferencial una parte de los escaños entre los Estados
en proporción a su número de habitantes y otra en proporción a la raíz cuadrada
de sus poblaciones. Nuestra propuesta se basa en consideraciones normativas, legales,
empíricas y pragmáticas. En primer lugar, la familia paramétrica de métodos
coarticula en la práctica el poder de los dos sujetos constituyentes de la Unión Europea
—los ciudadanos de la Unión y de los Estados miembros— (Habermas,
2016). En segundo lugar, nuestra propuesta puede ser aplicada tanto respetando
los límites en la representación por Estado miembro como sin ellos. En tercer lugar,
el método paramétrico arroja distintas distribuciones de los escaños entre los
Estados, entre las que las dos instituciones europeas —el Consejo de Europa y el
PE— pueden elegir en el momento de determinar la composición del PE, antes de
cada elección. Finalmente, este también ofrece una solución «pragmática» que
cumple con el principio de PD, pero sin implicar mayores cambios en la representación
de los Estados pequeños y medianos en el PE.
Exploring the Role of Financial Assets in Enhancing the Performance of Nigerian Banks
Authors: Ehiedu Chukwunweike Victor , Ukueku Ogheneovo
Published: January 2025

The study looked at the impact of financial assets (FA) on the financial performance (FP) of Nigerian deposit money banks (DMBs) from 2013 to 2022 (10 years). The study's specific goal is to investigate the coexistence of financial asset measurements [Cash Equivalents (CE), Trade Receivables (TR), Loans and Advance (LAD), and Foreign Bank Deposit (FBD)] and [DMB FP as proxied by Return on Equity (ROE)]. The selected ten banks were picked from the pool of 18 deposit money banks listed on the Nigerian Exchange Group. They were examined through descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis utilizing the OLS method. The findings indicated that capital equity (CE), liquidity asset density (LAD), and financial burden debt (FBD) have minimal impacts on return on equity (ROE); however, total revenue (TR) has a significant impact on ROE. Ultimately, the research revealed a strong correlation between financial assets (FA) and financial performance (FP) of deposit money banks in Nigeria. It is recommended that managers in the banking industry boost their allocation of cash holdings through cash planning (estimated forecast of cash position in the future) in order to maintain an optimal cash position level and improve their FP. Furthermore, treasurers must plan to invest idle capital in short-term investments such as treasury bills and interbank lending, which increases profitability and reduces fund costs.

Intrinsic Motivation and Rewards on Affective Commitment
Authors: Heryanto Imam
Published: January 2025

This study explores the influence of intrinsic motivation and rewards on affective commitment among vocational high school teachers in Bandung. The main issue addressed is how these two factors contribute to teachers' emotional attachment and commitment to their profession. The primary objective of this research is to analyze the relationship between intrinsic motivation, rewards, and affective commitment using a component-based Partial Least Squares (PLS) approach. A survey was conducted involving 83 vocational high school teachers in Bandung as participants. The research employed statistical analysis to evaluate the impact of intrinsic motivation and rewards on the teachers' affective commitment levels. The findings reveal a significant positive influence of both intrinsic motivation and rewards on affective commitment among the respondents. Specifically, intrinsic motivators such as personal fulfillment and passion for teaching, combined with external rewards, enhance teachers' emotional ties to their work and their willingness to remain committed to their institutions. The implications of this research suggest that fostering intrinsic motivation and implementing appropriate reward systems can play a crucial role in increasing teachers' affective commitment. Educational institutions are encouraged to develop strategies that enhance intrinsic motivation, alongside providing tangible rewards, to improve overall teacher satisfaction and retention. By understanding these dynamics, school administrators can create more supportive environments that bolster teachers' commitment and drive toward their professional responsibilities.
Language, Societal Security and Stability: A Study of the Expressive Forms used by Influential People on Television Programmes in Nigeria and the Republic of Congo
Authors: ANANA Mariam , NGALOUO-ANTSO Abraham
Published: January 2025

This article studies the impact of the language of influential people on social security and stability in Nigeria and the Republic of Congo. It explores the scope of hate speech, the use of vulgar language, derogatory family expressions, slang and insulting words from certain authorities and their consequences in the interest of the population. The data to support the research was randomly selected and collected from the Nigerian television programme “Politics Today” and the Congolese national television programme. It reveals in the light of Mead’s (1934) ‘Symbolic Interactionalism’ and Sacks’ (1992) ‘Conversational analysis’ that the state of each society is determined by the positive or negative roles played by language. Therefore, appropriate words uttered in pleasant tones and good dispositions (in spoken, written and sign language) can help strengthen the security and stability of a society.
However, inappropriate language use is one of the potential causes of insecurity and instability. Ultimately, this study recommends that members of society, especially the most educated, learn to choose convenient words, understand the components of language, interact and make perfect communications. Furthermore, they must meticulously and judiciously convey useful messages to the relevant authorities for diligent responses. Journalists or producers of television programmes should reserve the right to make judgments when presenting their programmes. In doing so, they will avoid negatively influencing viewers so that the security and stability of society can be maintained.
La gestion du plurilinguisme social par l’etat au congo : etat des lieux et perspectives
Authors: PANDI née MABIALA Ida Rose Aimée
Published: January 2025

The sociolinguistic situation in the Congo is characterized by a plurilingualism that brings several languages of various statuses into contact. On the one hand there are local languages represented by dozens of ethnic languages that serve for intra-ethnic communication and two vehicular languages Lingala and Kituba that allow inter-ethnic communication throughout the territory. On the other hand, we have French, which is the official language of schooling. Despite this multilingual linguistic niche, French is officially the only language in use in administrative and school settings. No space is reserved for Congolese languages, even less for the two vehiculars who closely complement this linguistic palette. Thus, the problematic on the management of plurilingualism in the Congo imposes itself acutely and generates major issues in the fields of politics, sociolinguistics and didactics. It is in this perspective that our reflection is located, the problematic of which is based on the following main question: "What state of play can be done on the management of multilingualism by the state in the Congo? ». At the end of a field investigation, we noted that the management of social plurilingualism in the Congo still remains a question to be developed. From independence to date, several official projects have been initiated on this issue, particularly on the promotion of the two vehicles. Unfortunately, not all of these projects have been successful due to didactic, pedagogical and ineffective political constraints. Based on this result, for a rational management of this plurilingualism, a linguistic reorganization is necessary that is likely to grant a didactic range to lingala and kituba.

L’écriture de la perversion dans Rivales de Noun faré
Authors: TCHAO Essotorom
Published: January 2025

This article sets out to show the innovative aesthetic of Noun Faré's Rivales, not only in terms of narratology, but also in terms of writing style, where insult and exposure of the body seem to be a strategy for the novelist to write about perversion, which has become a reality brought out into the open. The narrative blurring is characterised by interlocking and similar narratives and female characters who are narrators with almost the same stories, characterised by rape and hatred of their mother. A style of writing that defies the norms of language and an over-exposure of the body, especially the sexual parts of the body, are proof that the novelist uses perversion as a writing strategy that exposes our current society, where perversion seems to be the norm. Gérard Genette's narratology and discourse analysis are the appropriate tools for this analysis.
Le pouvoir traditionnel en « perte de vitesse » ? analyse dans deux romans burkinabè
Authors: NOMBRE Fatimata
Published: January 2025

Power, in all its forms, has always arused enthousiasm, but also crystallized passions. An expression of authority and exemplarity, it is intimately linked to divine power, with reference to pharaohs and deities in many civilizations in Africa and the rest of the world. However, it is increasinggly controversial. Certainly, its ability to mobilize around common causes and to resolve civil and land disputes and family conflicts is no longer in question, but the exercise of political aspect seems not suited to the current modern context and the aspirations of societies in full change : non-inclusive, implacable decisions, male dominance, mystery and esoterism. This is ambivalent image is one reflected by literature, in this case Burkinabe literature.
Les radios de proximité et la question de la cohésion sociale en Côte d’Ivoire
Authors: TOPÉ GUEU Michelle
Published: January 2025

After a violent post-electoral crisis in 2010 which caused more than 3,000 deaths, according to the official report, Côte d'Ivoire is recovering from the traumas of its recent history. More than ten years after the war, the mechanisms of public life continue to be put in place gradually in a context of painful national reconciliation made even more complex with the trial coupled with the International Criminal Court in The Hague of the former head of the State, Laurent Gbagbo and his foal, Mr. Charles Blé Goudé. In this fragile social context, the media, formerly accused of having contributed to setting the country ablaze, are now called upon to participate in the reconstruction of the social fabric. This is particularly the case for local radio stations. How do these local media contribute to strengthening social cohesion in Côte d'Ivoire? This article aims to analyze the role of community media in peacebuilding in Côte d'Ivoire. The documentary study and the individual interviews of some managers of local radios, made it possible to show the important role of local radios in the reconstitution of the social fabric in Côte d'Ivoire. Gatekeeping and agenda setting theories have helped to understand the power of local radios in social relations in Côte d'Ivoire.
Youth Edginess as an Indignant Outcry for Environmental Justice: A Postcolonial Ecocritical Analysis of Chimeka Garricks’ Tomorrow Died Yesterday and Imbolo Mbue’s How Beautiful We Were
Authors: MAKOSSO Alphonse Dorien
Published: January 2025

This study deals with the plight of the youth in Chimeka Garricks’ Tomorrow Died Yesterday and Imbolo Mbue’s How Beautiful We Were. Drawing essentially from the postcolonial eco-critical theory by Huggan and Tiffin, it aims to show how young people, in the novels under consideration, show their outrage and fight for environmental justice and restoration. A peruse of both narratives unveils that oil pollution, environmental damages, as well as the chaos engendered by ecological mismanagement, have obviously instigated the resentment of young people, who, showing ‘symptom’ of edginess, no longer hesitate step from indignation to vandalism as a means of last resort to change the status quo. As a final assessment, this paper suggests that western neo-colonial corporations, with governments’ complicity, constitute the real culprits of ecological damages in Africa, this motivates African writers like Chimeka Garricks and Imbolo Mbue to get involved in decrying these awful practices and resorting to eco-activism in their literary fresco to take a step towards sustainable development.

It is a question of showing the place of the language in the advertising communication at this telephone operator.
L’espace public médiatique face à l’influence du champ politique : Cadre juridique encadré et service public mitigé –l’exemple de Télé-Congo
Authors: OKOTI Lambert Romuald
Published: January 2025

This article is proposed to study the question of the legal status of the public television in (Africa) in connection to the notion of the media public service focusing on the Congolese public channel. Being based on the analysis of twenty semi-structured interviews with professional actors of this media and associations and by analyzing two specific programs of this public television at the rate of three numerous per programs. We observed in the results of this investigation that there is an unsuitability between the informational content of programs, the understanding of the public service by professionals and the legal texts of this channel which seem to be hybrid and not well-structured and do not fit in with the logic of the media public service. Indeed, this channel is rather divided between a primordial political imperative linked to the popularization of the governmental speech and a theoretical mission of the public service
Platon et la question de l’héritage
Authors: MFOUTOU Pierre Hubert
Published: January 2025

This paper examines the question of inheritance in Plato's thought. The aim is to show that in his major dialogues, such as the Laws and the Republic, Plato places the notion of inheritance at the heart of his thought, striving to provide an answer to the problem of continuity in the moment of rupture that is death. He was the voice of the society of his day, proposing that inheritance be passed on to the preferred child. The founder of the academy adheres to a commonly accepted idea: the idea of passing on the assets we accumulate to our loved ones according to well-defined rules. We can deduce from his analysis that only human beings are entitled to a legacy. Only they deserve to be elevated to a higher level through inheritance. The reason is that they have abilities unknown to animals: abilities that enable them to safeguard and grow what has been passed on to them.

OF THE MONASTERY OF THE MOTHER SEE OF HOLY ETCHMIADZIN
Authors: HAKOBYAN NYURA , KHUDAVERDYAN ANAHIT
Published: January 2025

During the excavations of 20-30 May 2019, an early medieval tomb was discovered near the southern wall of the Etchmiadzin Cathedral. The burial is in the ground in a typical stone sarcophagus facing north-west. The sarcophagus is made of stone, lined with polished tuff slabs. The sarcophagus is covered with unworked massive tuffs. The base of the sarcophagus is strewn with soil. There is no written evidence of when and under what circumstances the remains were reburied. Inhumations were widespread in the Hellenistic, Classical and Early Medieval periods and were oriented in a variety of directions. In Djrvezh, Artashat, Vagharshapat, Garni, in neighbouring Georgia and other places, the practice of burials in stone slabs and inhumations were based on their pagan traditions. According to the testimony of Agathangelos, the direction of the burials has not yet been clearly determined on Christian ideology. Hence, Grigor Lusavorich did not observe the Christian ritual of inhumation of the virgin martyrs of Sint Hripsime. The sarcophagus has been dated to the early 4th century based on its construction, orientation, stratigraphic data and comparable parallels, i.e. before the foundation of the Etchmiadzin Cathedral. “Saint Gregory erected crosses and arranged fences on the sites of the temples to be built, but he did not build an altar because he did not have the honour of a priest” (Ագաթանգեղոսի Պատմության հունական նորահայտ խմբագրությունը 1966, 80). Opening the sarcophagus, we found human remains: a skull and small fragments of bones of the postcranial skeleton. The surface of the bones revealed traces of burning and crystals: the white crystal on the surface bones is the result of a taphonomic event and is not due to a pathological condition.

FREE VIBRATION ANALYSIS OF A FUNCTIONALLY GRADED MAGNETO-PIEZO-THERMOELASTIC CERAMIC-METAL NANOBEAM USING MODIFIED NONLOCAL STATE-SPACE STRAIN GRADIENT THEORY
Authors: SELVAMANI R. , RUBINE L. , PRABHAKARAN T. , YAYLACI M.
Published: January 2025

This work studies how the variable nonlocal parameter is related to the material variations across a functionally graded (FG) nanobeam. Hamilton’s principle is used to derive the governing motion equations for a FG nanobeam within the refined higher-order state-space strain gradient theory. The presented formulation is tested numerically via Navier’s solution for a simply supported FG nanobeam. A comparison with the existing published findings is performed to show the precision of results. Furthermore, the effects of the nonlocal parameters of the ceramic and metal parts, as well as temperature, magnetic potential, and electric voltage on the free vibration response are investigated.

Background: Bile is stored and concentrated in the gallbladder as food is being consumed. Bile acids regulate gallbladder function via the membrane bile acid receptor. By storing bile acids and changing their composition, changes in gallbladder motor activity can guard against a number of clinical disorders in addition to contributing to the development of gallstone disease.
Methods: This paper compiles studies conducted on Iraqi individuals suffering from gallbladder diseases and reviews the findings of these studies..
Results: In recent years, gallbladder stones have become increasingly widespread in Iraqi culture, and gallbladder illnesses have becoming more common among Iraqis. This review seeks to provide an overview of the many gallbladder conditions.In a number of Iraqi investigations, gall bladder disorders were associated with this condition, and it was discovered that there were more Gram-negative bacteria than Gram-positive bacteria. Other studies included some diseases that were linked to gall bladder disorders in these diseases. According to some research, there is a chance that some persons will have GBD, which is typically asymptomatic during pregnancy. Advanced maternal age, a prior history of GBD, and a positive family history may all raise this risk.
Recommendation: The statement calls for more research on gallbladder disorders among Iraqis and how they connect to intestinal disorders.

The Philippines is one of the most climate-vulnerable countries in the world and faces several disasters, including floods, droughts, typhoons, earthquakes, landslides, and volcanic eruptions. These events are known to have negative impacts on people’s mental health. Studying the harmful effects of climate change on people’s mental health is in line with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals 3 (Good Health and Well-being) and 13 (Climate Action). Eco-anxiety, defined as anxiety relating to climate change and other environmental problems, is one of the adverse effects of climate change on mental health. Among young Filipinos, prior studies indicate that eco-anxiety is prevalent, but research investigating the various factors contributing to eco-anxiety is limited. In the present study, the researchers focused on climate change awareness as a factor associated with eco-anxiety. This study aimed to determine the level of climate change awareness and eco-anxiety among undergraduate students and determine if there is a significant relationship between these two variables. Using the Awareness Scale for Climate Change and Hogg’s Eco-Anxiety Scale, data were gathered among 392 undergraduate students in one of the higher education institutions in Davao City. Results showed that undergraduate students, on average, exhibit a very high level of climate change awareness. Additionally, results revealed that, on average, undergraduate students experience a moderate level of eco-anxiety. Results also showed a significant but low positive relationship between climate change awareness and eco-anxiety. The results of this study add to the growing body of research investigating the prevalence of and relationship between climate change awareness and eco-anxiety. This study highlights the need to reassess various climate change awareness programs and implement other interventions to help address eco-anxiety among young people and students.

Introdução: Os mecanismos de estresse e resistência periférica à insulina em queimaduras graves determinam a glicosilação proteica com aumento da morbimortalidade. Assim, o controle glicêmico torna-se prioridade, bem como a confecção de um protocolo de insulinização eficaz e seguro.
Objetivo: Analisar o protocolo de insulinização para queimados e compará-lo ao protocolo de insulinização geral quanto a resultados glicêmicos e desfechos de pacientes queimados.
Método: Estudo observacional analítico transversal retrospectivo que analisou o prontuário de grandes queimados em 88 pacientes, divididos em 2 grupos: 41 usuários do protocolo geral, e outro com 47 usuários do protocolo para queimados.
Resultado: A porcentagem glicêmica fora do alvo, com o protocolo geral, foi de 23% enquanto com o para queimados foi de 17% (p = 0,0001). A variação glicêmica média diária (p = 0,027) e a média das glicemias máximas diárias (p = 0,022) foram significativamente maiores no grupo do protocolo geral quando comparado com o do protocolo para queimados, enquanto a média das glicemias mínimas diárias (p = 0,71) foi semelhante entre ambos. A mortalidade predita pelo índice Abbreviated Burn Severity Index encontrada foi significativamente maior no grupo que utilizou o protocolo para queimados quando comparado ao geral (p = 0,004), entretanto não se evidenciou diferença estatística entre os grupos quanto à mortalidade (p = 0,61).
Conclusão: Constatou-se redução da porcentagem de mensurações fora do alvo glicêmico, na média das glicemias máximas e na variabilidade glicêmica no protocolo para queimados, quando comparado com o protocolo geral. Todavia, a média das glicemias mínimas diárias foi semelhante entre os protocolos. A mortalidade predita pelo Abbreviated Burn Severity Index foi maior no protocolo para queimados quando comparado com o geral; contudo, a mortalidade foi semelhante entre ambos.

Introdução: A American Heart Association e a European Society of Cardiology recomendam os inibidores do cotransportador de sódio-glicose 2 (iSGLT2) para o tratamento da insuficiência cardíaca, independentemente da fração de ejeção. Por outro lado, a Sociedade Brasileira de Cardiologia, não incluiu recomendações formais sobre o uso de iSGLT2 para insuficiência cardíaca com fração de ejeção preservada (ICFEp). Objetivo: Analisar a eficácia dos iSGLT2 em pacientes com fração de ejeção intermediária/levemente reduzida (ICFEmr) e ICFEp. Metodologia: Foi realizada uma revisão de literatura utilizando a abordagem PICO. Foram incluídos artigos com p-valor inferior a 0,05, resultando em 14 artigos publicados entre 2020 e 2023. As bases de dados consultadas foram PubMed, Lilacs e SciELO, utilizando os descritores: “Sodium-Glucose Transporter 2 Inhibitors”, “Ejection Fraction”, “Mildly Reduced” e “Preserved”. Resultados: Os estudos indicaram que o uso de iSGLT2 em cardiopatas ICEFEP ou ICEFEmr está associado a uma redução significativa no risco de morte cardiovascular e em complicações hospitalares. A fração de ejeção não apresentou alterações significativas. Além disso, os estudos relataram melhorias nas funções renais, na classificação funcional da New York Heart Association e no manejo geral do DM. Todos os estudos mostraram melhora nos sintomas e na qualidade de vida dos pacientes. Os estudos demostram ressalvas quanto à redução da mortalidade geral. Conclusão: Os dados sugerem que, independentemente da presença de DM, os iSGLT2 são eficazes na redução de internações por insuficiência cardíaca e na mortalidade cardiovascular em indivíduos com ICFEmr e ICFEp.

Introdução: a amputação é caracterizada pela remoção cirúrgica ou traumática de uma extremidade do corpo. Objetivo: comparar a eficácia da MN e o AEP em pacientes amputados de membros inferiores a nível transfemoral para o ganho de ADM mensurados pelo Banco de Wells e Dillon. Método: trata-se de uma pesquisa experimental de natureza quantitativa. A amostra foi composta por 14 voluntários atendidos pelo estágio de Amputação, Órtese e Prótese do curso de Fisioterapia (UNIPAC Barbacena) na Clínica Escola Vera Tamm de Andrada. Foram utilizados como critérios de inclusão: pacientes amputados em nível transfemoral unilateral; sexo masculino e faixa etária entre 18 e 75 anos; aptos para realização de atividades físicas após preenchimento do Questionário de Screening Pré-exercício. E para os critérios de exclusão: presença de patologias que caracterizassem contraindicação para a realização da MN e AEP e presença de lesão que impossibilitasse a aplicação das técnicas. A análise dos dados realizada utilizando o pacote estatístico SPSS versão 24.0 e a normalidade dos dados determinada pelo teste de Shapiro Wilk. Resultados: ao verificar o pré vs pós das intervenções, houve um ganho de ADM em ambas as técnicas, no entanto, ao compará-las entre si não foi possível identificar qual a mais eficaz. Conclusão: conclui-se que as técnicas de MN e AEP são eficazes para o ganho de ADM em amputados transfemorais e podem ser elencadas no processo de reabilitação. Contudo, sugere-se o desenvolvimento de novos estudos com um maior número amostral e que analisem os efeitos crônicos das referidas técnicas.

O presente trabalho analisa como a educação CTS é contemplada no Projeto Pedagógico do Curso (PPC) de Ciências Biológicas de uma universidade pública do estado de Mato Grosso do Sul. Para tanto, realizou uma pesquisa de natureza qualitativa e documental, tendo como instrumento de coleta dados o PPC/2018 da universidade selecionada. Os dados foram sistematizados e analisados de acordo com a análise de conteúdo, sendo organizados em categorias para melhot analisar. Em linhas gerais, o PPC analisado conserva-se alinhado aos documentos que regem os cursos de formação docente inicial em relação às suas demandas, contudo, a perspectiva CTS permanece ofuscada ou com concepções de sentido ambíguo, as quais ficam à mercê da interpretação dos professores se irão abordá-la ou não em sala de aula como conteúdo, estratégia ou habilidade CTS, necessitando maiores adequações ou inclusões desta tríade na matriz do curso pesquisado, visto suas potencialidades e contribuições para o ensino.

Introdução: Arbovírus são vírus transmitidos entre artrópodes e vertebrados, essencialmente para manter seu ciclo de vida. Têm uma distribuição global, prevalecendo em áreas tropicais. Entre as doenças negligenciadas, arboviroses como dengue, chikungunya e febre de Oropouche destacam-se pela ameaça à saúde pública em países em desenvolvimento. A febre de Oropouche é transmitida principalmente pelo mosquito Culicoides paraensis, afetando tanto áreas urbanas quanto silvestres. Seus sintomas incluem febre alta, cefaleia, mialgia, podendo evoluir para meningite ou meningoencefalite em casos graves. Objetivo: Analisar a dinâmica epidemiológica da febre Oropouche nas semanas 1 a 31 no Brasil. Metodologia: Este estudo observacional analisou dados do painel epidemiológico do Ministério da Saúde entre julho e agosto de 2024, avaliando exames detectáveis de Oropouche por semana epidemiológica, local provável de infecção, faixa etária e sexo. Resultados: Foram confirmados 7.497 casos de Oropouche entre as semanas epidemiológicas 1 a 31, com maior incidência no Amazonas. A infecção predominou em adultos jovens e mostrou predominância masculina. Conclusão: A febre de Oropouche é um problema de saúde pública, exigindo diagnóstico precoce e vigilância epidemiológica para controlar sua disseminação e evitar complicações.
