Deuda hipotecaria y vida cotidiana en Nicaragua y México
Authors: Sánchez Perla , Salinas Luis
Published: May 2024

Desde la década de los noventa, distintos países de América Latina favorecieron el desarrollo de políticas habitacionales centradas en el crédito hipotecario como vía privilegiada de acceso a la vivienda en propiedad, lo cual derivó en su normalización como la forma más inteligente y segura de tenencia. Este estudio buscó analizar las consecuencias de la deuda hipotecaria de vivienda social en la vida cotidiana, a través de una revisión crítica de la política habitacional de ambos países, y la aplicación de entrevistas semiestructuradas a familias endeudas en Managua y Ciudad de México. Esto permitió identificar que la deuda ha funcionado como una técnica de disciplinamiento con repercusiones significativas en las condiciones de la vida cotidiana de los sujetos endeudados y la construcción de sujetos sumisos que se someten a las condiciones políticas, económicas y laborales imperantes, comprometiendo así su capacidad para decidir sobre su presente y su porvenir.

Published: May 2024

Lack of proper lumbar posture is responsible for the occurrence of neck and shoulder pain, low back pain, and muscle and joint injuries in the abdominal region in more than 75% of individuals. This scenario is influenced by the excessive use of computers in the workplace, prolonged periods of incorrect sitting posture, inadequate posture during daily activities, and repetitive and localized movements, among other factors. Consequently, numerous studies are being carried out with the aim of reducing or eliminating the frequency of the problem. The most common solution proposed by researchers is the use of lumbar posture correction waistcoats. This article has automated a posture correction waistcoat that protects the wearer but also monitors their posture. When incorrect posture is identified, the waistcoat generates a warning signal. To do this, gyro sensors, accelerometer sensors, and vibration motors were installed and supervised by an Arduino microcontroller. A communication system based on Bluetooth technology was used, integrated into an Android app that interacts with the user, displaying monitoring data and providing graphical representations of inappropriate postures. In addition, a health and well-being module was implemented, which suggests a physical exercise routine to prevent back pain. In addition, a therapeutic massage module was included for relaxation and an interface for storing music that can be played while wearing the waistcoat. The results demonstrated that the implemented system generated a smart vest capable of monitoring and alerting the user when an incorrect posture was identified. Furthermore, the results indicated that the health and well-being module provided a positive user experience.

Published: May 2024

O estudo buscou identificar o perfil epidemiológico da sífilis congênita e em gestantes em Indaiatuba, São Paulo, entre 2012 e 2021. Utilizou-se uma metodologia exploratória, descritiva, ecológica e retrospectiva, com dados obtidos do Sistema de Informação de Agravo de Notificações (SINAN). Durante o período, foram notificados 386 casos de sífilis gestacional e 172 de sífilis congênita. Houve aumento significativo de 71,05% nos casos de sífilis em gestantes e 85,7% em sífilis congênita. Em 2016, as taxas de incidência foram as menores registradas, com 7,17 e 4,56 casos a cada mil nascidos vivos, respectivamente. No entanto, de 2020 a 2021, observou-se crescimento expressivo, com aumento de 76% nos casos de sífilis gestacional e 63% em sífilis congênita. É preocupante que muitas gestantes diagnosticadas no pré-natal não receberam tratamento adequado ou nenhum tratamento, contribuindo para a transmissão da doença ao feto. A situação sugere a necessidade urgente de ações eficazes para controle e prevenção da sífilis na região. Estudos futuros devem focar na monitorização da sífilis e na identificação de fatores de risco. Avaliar a eficácia das intervenções implementadas é crucial, assim como promover uma abordagem coordenada entre profissionais de saúde, gestores e comunidade para proteger a saúde materno-infantil em Indaiatuba.

O polimorfismo C677T no gene MTHFR está relacionado a Hipertensão Arterial Sistêmica (HAS) e a obesidade, sendo estas doenças crônicas relacionadas ao consumo baixo de fibras, embora ainda não seja consensual. Com base no exposto, o objetivo deste estudo foi analisar a influência do polimorfismo C677T no gene MTHFR sobre os valores pressóricos em mulheres hipertensas com sobrepeso e obesidade utilizando intervenção com fibras dietéticas mistas. Estudo de intervenção duplo-cego placebo controlado, envolvendo sessenta mulheres adultas com sobrepeso ou obesidade, sendo vinte e cinco hipertensas e vinte e cinco normotensas.  Foram realizadas avaliações antropométricas, análises bioquímicas e genotipagem do polimorfismo C677T do gene MTHFR. Inicialmente a amostra foi selecionada por conveniência, e após aleatoriamente, sendo formados quatro grupos, tendo os grupos um (G1-hipertensas) e três (G3-normotensas), recebido sachês com doze gramas de fibras dietéticas mistas e os grupos dois (G2-hipertensas) e quatro (G4-normotensas) o placebo. O G1 com genótipos CT/TT apresentou maiores reduções dos valores de pressão arterial sistólica após a intervenção com fibras (147,87 ± 22,48 mmHg x 129,67 ± 19,69) seguido do genótipo CC (143,33 ± 15,05 mmHg x 129,67 ± 14,99) p = 0,0145. Tendo o G1, com genótipo CT/TT apresentado uma média de menos 15.5 mmHg (p = 0,0026) seguido do grupo CC G1 com menos 15,0 mmHg de média da pressão arterial sistólica (p = 0,0115). Logo, efeito HIPOTENSOR sobre os valores da pressão arterial sistólica mesmo na presença do polimorfismo C677T no gene MTHFR, foi observado principalmente nos portadores do genótipo CT/TT seguido do genótipo CC que apresentaram melhor resposta a partir da intervenção com doze gramas de fibras dietéticas mistas.
A evolução do tabagismo - do convencional ao eletrônico

Published: May 2024

A história do tabagismo passa por uma transformação de percepção ao longo dos tempos. Inicialmente associado a práticas rituais e medicinais, o cigarro moderno ganhou popularidade no século XIX, sendo promovido como símbolo de status. Para a construção desta imagem gloriosa associada ao hábito de fumar, a mídia teve um importante papel através de propagandas da indústria do tabaco e, também, demonstrou resistência à publicação de matérias contra o fumo à medida que os estudos surgiam. No entanto, evidências científicas crescentes ligaram o tabagismo a sérios problemas de saúde no século XX, levando a uma mudança na percepção pública, de herói a vilão. Paralelamente, surgiram os cigarros eletrônicos como alternativa, visando substituir o tabaco queimado por um vapor aromatizado, reduzindo os efeitos relacionados à queima. Porém, o seu impacto na saúde ainda é objeto de debate, visto que recentemente foi possível associar pneumopatias como a EVALI ao uso do novo dispositivo de fumo. Sendo assim, a construção da linha do tempo nos ensina que a luta contra o tabagismo é contínua e requer uma abordagem multifacetada, que inclui ações de conscientização, regulação da indústria do tabaco e investimentos em pesquisa para entender melhor os impactos do tabagismo e de suas novas formas de consumo. A proteção da saúde pública deve permanecer como uma prioridade, e é essencial que autoridades de saúde em todo o mundo trabalhem em conjunto para enfrentar esse desafio global. Somente assim poderemos garantir um futuro mais saudável para as gerações futuras, livre dos danos causados pelo tabagismo.

Published: May 2024

Os problemas sociais, econômicos, políticos, culturais e ambientais não são exclusivos dos países periféricos, mas são mais graves nos países do Sul. A resolução da problemática dos resíduos sólidos urbanos no Brasil requer uma abordagem interdisciplinar que promova o diálogo entre política, economia e natureza. O artigo objetiva analisar a implementação da PNRS/2010 no estado de Mato Grosso, Brasil, e verificar como ela dialoga com os princípios da Economia Solidária, no que se refere à inclusão socioeconômica produtiva de Catadores de materiais recicláveis. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa, descritiva, com pesquisa de campo, observação, vistas in loco e realização de entrevistas em profundidade. A pesquisa envolveu quatro municípios e quatro mesorregiões mato-grossenses. Os dados foram interpretados com base na análise de conteúdo. O estudo identificou estreita relação entre os objetivos, os instrumentos e as diretrizes da PNRS/2010 com princípios da Economia Solidária. Os resultados apontam que a interlocuação entre as duas políticas são fundamentais para a implementação da coleta seletiva realizada por Catadores. No âmbito da PNRS/2010, mostra-se que os PMGIRS que consideram a interface entre a Economia Solidária, quando aliadas a educação ambiental, promovem a sensibilização, a mobilização social, consciência política que efetivamente contribuíram para a inclusão socioeconômica produtiva dos Catadores. Mas também geram consciência e compromisso com a causa ambiental, empoderamento e autonomia. E, por ser mais econômica e eficiente, estabelece uma relação custo-benefício economicamente viável. Dessa forma, é possível inferir que a coleta seletiva realizada por catadoradores representa uma oportunidade para desenvolver soluções sustentáveis em todas as suas dimensões, evidenciando a relevância da interação entre as duas políticas mensionadas. Apesar das limitações do estudo, o artigo apresenta questões iniciais, lacunas na pesquisa e sugere possíveis direções para futuras investigações nesse campo.

Tinjauan Kriminologis Terhadap Modus Baru Peredaran Psikotropika dan Obat-Obat Tertentu Melalui Toko Kosmetik
Authors: Primananda Adhika , Giritikawati Novi , Bayu Rastika Dewa Gede
Published: May 2024

Saat ini teridentifikasi modus baru dalam peredaran Psikotropika dan Obat-Obat Tertentu (OOT) yang Sering Disalahgunakan, yaitu menggunakan toko kosmetik sebagai sarana mengedarkannya. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk menggambarkan fenomena modus tersebut dan memberikan rekomendasi untuk menanggulanginya. Kajian ini dilakukan secara kualitatif dengan mengumpulkan data sekunder berupa data-data administratif dan penelusuran pemberitaan, kemudian melakukan verifikasi data dengan melakukan wawancara ke pihak terkait serta melakukan observasi lapangan. Dari data yang terkumpul, terlihat adanya peningkatan kasus peredaran psikotropika dan OOT dengan modus toko kosmetik. Modus tersebut setidaknya ditemukan di 3 Provinsi, antara lain Provinsi DKI Jakarta, Provinsi Banten, dan Provinsi Jawa Barat. Ciri yang terlihat dari modus tersebut adalah banyaknya pembeli remaja laki-laki yang bertransaksi secara sangat singkat di toko kosmetik dengan kendaraan roda dua dalam kondisi siap jalan, serta jumlah kosmetik yang dijual tidak terlalu banyak, yang umumnya sudah berdebu atau kadaluwarsa, dan dipadatkan pada bagian depan etalase untuk menutupi produk obat yang dijual. Terdapat temuan menarik dimana jaringan kelompok masyarakat daerah tertentu berperan penting dalam berkembangnya modus ini. Selain itu, penindakan yang dilakukan oleh aparat belum efektif karena beberapa toko yang sudah dilakukan penindakan kembali melakukan pelanggarannya. Jika ditinjau secara kriminologis, salah satu penyebab mengapa pelaku memilih menjual psikotropika secara ilegal adalah adaptasi pelaku terhadap kondisi anomie, dimana harapan akan kesuksesan dan kekayaan sulit dicapai dengan cara-cara konvensional. Dalam mengejar harapan tersebut, pelaku mengambil keputusan-keputusan rasional yang bertujuan untuk memaksimalkan keuntungan serta meminimalkan biaya/resiko. Jaringan kelompok masyarakat tertentu juga terbentuk karena pilihan rasional sehingga menjadi kelompok kejahatan terorganisir model kultural.
Potensi Peredaran Kosmetik Dalam Bentuk Mainan (Mainan Kosmetik) Tidak Memiliki Izin Edar
Authors: Sende Iin Febrianti , Kembaren Anita , Yunianto Edi Priyo , Barus David Julianto , Arrahman Yovia Rizki
Published: May 2024

Kosmetik dalam bentuk mainan anak/mainan kosmetik seperti eyeshadow, lipstik/lip gloss, blush on, kutek, dan lain-lain populer digunakan oleh anak-anak. Mainan kosmetik diedarkan secara offline di toko-toko mainan anak/secara online di marketplace. Mainan kosmetik berpotensi mengandung bahan yang berbahaya seperti merkuri, formaldehida, dan lain-lain. Bahan-bahan ini berpotensi menyebabkan gangguan kesehatan terutama kepada anak yang masih memiliki fungsi pelindung kulit maupun sistem imun yang belum matang. Perizinan peredaran mainan kosmetik saat ini bersifat dualisme, yaitu sebagai kosmetik yang harus dinotifikasi ke Badan POM, ataupun sebagai mainan yang harus berstandar SNI dan diproduksi oleh produsen mainan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui tren peredaran mainan kosmetik dan potensi dampak dari dualisme perizinannya terhadap pemenuhan jaminan keamanan produk mainan kosmetik di peredaran. Penelitian dilakukan dengan melakukan pendataan mainan kosmetik di 48 (empat puluh delapan) toko mainan di Jakarta, Bogor, Depok, Tangerang, Bekasi, Denpasar dan Surabaya pada periode bulan April – Juni 2023. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa seluruh mainan kosmetik merupakan kosmetik dekoratif, dan paling banyak ditemukan sebagai mainan dengan penandaan SNI. Sebagian besar mainan kosmetik yang ditemukan di peredaran adalah produk impor dari China. Selain itu, di peredaran ditemukan jugamainan kosmetik tidak memiliki izin edar (TIE) dan atau masuk dalam kategori ganda sebagai mainan dan kosmetik. Hal ini dapat menjadi celah bagi pelaku usaha yang memproduksi maupun menjual mainan kosmetik TIE yang berpotensi mengandung bahan berbahaya, serta dapat menimbulkan kerugian bagi pelaku usaha yang mendaftarkan produknya pada kedua kategori.  BPOM perlu berkoordinasi dengan lintas sektor terkait untuk mengkaji regulasi produk mainan kosmetik guna menetapkan batasan antara mainan dan kosmetik.

Patients with age more than 18 years, of both genders who provided consent for eye examination and treatment, were included in the study while patients with corneal disease or prior surgery, ocular trauma, or those presenting with active infection or ocular disease were excluded from the study. Results: 396 (44.0%) of patients were males and 504 (56.0%) were females. The results indicate that the mean IOP measurement for air puff tonometry (17.43 mm Hg) is significantly higher (p-value=0.0001) than the mean measurement obtained by Goldman tonometry (13.84 mm Hg). Overall, the distribution of IOP was similar for both types of tonometry, with a slightly higher proportion having high IOP values (19-22 mmHg) with Goldman tonometry compared to air puff tonometry. Conclusions: The findings of this research demonstrated a noteworthy contrast between the two techniques, where the air puff tonometry produced noticeably elevated intraocular pressure measurements in comparison to the widely accepted applanation tonometry

Al-Ghaz?l? in Sufism has had big influenced of his thought in the world. He was Syafi’i follower in fiqih law and Asy’ariyah in theology, when he was in Baghdad he hung out with many mazhabs. Ihya’ Ul?m al-D?n is outlined with sharp thought method. The discussion is divided to systematic parts. It combined outward and inner fiqh, in explaining the difficult terms, this book uses tamstil. Al Ghazali has written heart diseases and its medicine. It also inserted many advantage stories as refreshing phase. Heart education is the soul controlling process. This soul consequently is able to encourage the physical activity in daily life appropriate with syari’ah of Allah through riyadhoh, fasting, praying or other worships. It also makes person becomes obidient people from birth to death, through many education and teaching and learning gradually, in which the learning peocess is parents and society responsibility toward a pious (shalih) person. The purpose of psychology according to Ghazali is forming pious or shalih people.

Vid analyser inom den nationella miljöövervakningen av växtskyddsmedel (NMÖ) och annan miljöövervakning ingår vissa metaboliter från växtskyddsmedel. Kunskapen om vilka andra metaboliter som kan finnas i grund- och ytvatten i Sverige och som skulle kunna ha negativ effekt på miljön eller människors hälsa är bristfällig. Detta projekt syftar till att identifiera vilka metaboliter från växtskyddsmedel som kan vara relevanta att analysera i svenska yt- och grundvatten. En bedömning görs också av vilka som är praktiskt möjliga att inkludera i analyspaket för den nationella miljöövervakningen. Totalt 33 prover från Sverige analyserades för 67 metaboliter av laboratoriet DVGW Technology Centre for Water (TZW) i Karlsruhe, Tyskland. Totalt 22 metaboliter detekterades, 7 i grundvatten och 22 i ytvatten. Elva substanser förekom i halter över 0,1 µg/l i ytvatten och fyra av dessa över 0,1 µg/l även i grundvatten. Övriga underlag som användes för att identifiera relevanta metaboliter är: • Resultat från tidigare analyser av metaboliter i Sverige och Danmark • Underlag om relevans baserat på data från registreringsprocessen • Genomgång av lagstiftning och diskussion med berörda myndigheter Totalt har 38 metaboliter från växtskyddsmedel identifierats som relevanta att analysera i svenska yt- och grundvatten. Fyra av metaboliterna ingår redan i analyserna inom NMÖ, fyra kan inkluderas i NMÖ-analyserna från och med 2024 och en metabolit kan inkluderas i en ny metod för mycket polära ämnen som utvecklas med finansiering av Naturvårdsverket. De resterande kommer att testas efter prioritering i samråd med berörda myndigheter. Identifiering av relevanta metaboliter att inkludera i den nationella miljöövervakningen, och i analyser av yt- och grundvatten generellt, behöver vara en kontinuerlig process eftersom nya ämnen tillkommer på marknaden och kunskapen kring befintliga ämnen utvecklas. Att CKB får uppgifter från Kemikalieinspektionen två gånger per år säkerställer att detta fortsätter att uppmärksammas. Av ekonomiska skäl kan bara ett begränsat antal metaboliter inkluderas i den löpande nationella miljöövervakningen och en prioritering behöver därför göras. Denna prioritering bör göras i samråd med Naturvårdsverket och Kemikalieinspektionen och eventuellt andra berörda myndigheter.
Bridging Theory and Practice
Authors:   , Steenhuis Sander
Published: May 2024

Due to persistently increasing pressure on health systems in high-income countries, many
payers are searching for alternative models to pay providers for care delivery — and ‘bundled payments’ are often considered among the most prominent. Although in theory their potential ‘value’ for patients and society seems high, little is known about how a bundled payment contract between a payer and provider can best be designed and implemented to actually achieve this potential in practice. Because of this knowledge gap, bundled payment contracts are often seen as complex and their adoption is slow. Therefore, this dissertation aims to fill that gap by 1) exploring the complexity in the design and implementation of bundled payment contracts and 2) exploring solutions to reduce this complexity in order to accelerate adoption.

Concerning the first part of this aim, this dissertation shows that over 50 key elements contribute to the complexity of the design and implementation process of bundled payment
contracts. These elements encompass all phases of care procurement and relate to actors on
all levels of the health care system. In addition, the dissertation shows that, although it is
theoretically possible to address each of these elements in an overview of over 30 strategic,
tactical and operational design choices, these choices — and the options within them — are often: context-dependent (e.g., options in a single-payer system are different than in a multipayer system), interchangeable (i.e., different choices can achieve similar effects) and/or interrelated (i.e., choosing one option can have a positive or negative impact on the options in other procurement phases). Precisely this multitude of elements and intertwining choices and options are responsible for making the design and implementation of bundled payment contracts so complex.

Concerning the second part of this dissertation’s aim (i.e., ‘to explore solutions to reduce this complexity’), each of the chapters in this dissertation offer multiple insights, lessons and even practical tools that can be used to help reduce the complexity of the design and implementation of bundled payment contracts — such as the included specification of a structured roadmap for a bundled payment contract design process.

In conclusion, compared with traditional ‘fee-for-service’ models, bundled payment contracts introduce alternative financial incentives that affect the entire health care system, involve almost all aspects of governance within organizations and demand a different type of collaboration between organizations. Therefore, bundled payment contracts should not be strategically approached by payers and providers as being the mere adoption of a new contracting model but, rather, as being part of a broader transformation to a more sustainable and value-based health care system, based less on short-term transactional negotiations and more on long-term collaborative relationships between payers and providers.

Published: May 2024

Currently available high-resolution crystallographic studies of liganded and unliganded antibody molecules have provided the opportunity to analyze in more detail the structure of the antibody and its interaction with antigen, as well as the interactions between the domains of the molecule and between the framework and the complementarity-determining regions of the variable domains. The structural data now available have also allowed a more detailed analysis of the solvent accessibilities of the residues in the various domains of the molecule. The information resulting from this analysis is useful in the engineering of antibodies for therapeutic and other purposes.
Survivable Network Design with Constrained h-Subgraph Flows
Authors: Labao Alfonso , N. Adorna Henry
Published: May 2024

In this paper, we propose a variant of the survivable network design problem, where subgraphs are given flow constraints, which represent upper bounds on weights of outgoing edges with endpoints that belong to vertex subsets of these subgraphs. The general problem of verifying whether the weights of outgoing edges of any vertex subset (i.e. a graph cut) of an arbitrary subgraph meets a certain upper bound is a computationally hard problem. However, our proposed problem considers special types of subgraphs (termed h-subgraphs) which possess a tree structure. In particular, a h-subgraph consists of a trunk whose vertices are connected by a unique path and which are termed as trunk vertices. Each trunk vertex is connected to a branch which also has a tree structure. This special graph structure of h-subgraphs - along with conditions over the flow constraint function and additional constraints on the optimization problem allow for the construction of a polynomial-time algorithm to solve our proposed problem - using efficient separation oracles under the ellipsoid method of linear programming. Our proposed algorithm provides (2pl,2z(S)+3)-performance where p is the maximum length of any path that connects the root and leaves of a branch of any h-subgraph, l is the maximum number of leaves of any branch of a h-subgraph, and S is a vertex subset of a branch of a h-subgraph.
Bacterial composition and antibiotic resistome profile of water in the Manila Bay South Harbor

Anthropogenic activities in Manila Bay, the oldest and busiest international port in the Philippines, may cause changes in flora and fauna within its harbors. Specifically, the ballasting and deballasting of ships may accidentally introduce new populations of microorganisms, plants, and animals. Ballasting (and deballasting), or the process of carrying in/out of seawater from ship tanks in major ports/harbors, are causing major disturbances, particularly in marine ecosystems. Previous studies have shown that marine microorganisms comprise 98% of the primary production and regulation of the ocean's biogeochemical processes. However, with the continuous community disturbances due to human influence, potential marine bacterial populations with antibiotic resistomes may occur, and impact marine diversity. Since data on the microbial communities in Manila Bay South Harbor are limited, this study determined the bacterial composition and antibiotic resistome profiles of water samples from the area. Next-generation sequencing techniques and culture-based methods were utilized to elucidate the bacterial and functional diversity, as well as the antibiotic resistome of the water samples from the Manila Bay South Harbor. The bacterial diversity of the water sample was made up primarily of members of Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes, and Prevotella. The Clusters of Orthologous Group (COG) Level 1 identified metabolism as the most dominant functional predicted metagenome. The characterization of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) from water samples revealed that ARGs encoding resistance to multidrug was the most abundant. On the other hand, the identified antibiotic-resistant bacteria included ampicillin-resistant Escherichia coli, multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae, ampicillin- and cefuroxime-resistant Vibrio alginolyticus and ampicillin resistant Vibrio furnissii. The above results provide a baseline marine bacterial community and antibiotic resistome profile of the Manila Bay South Harbor. This information is critical in gaining a better understanding of the potential roles of shifts in marine microbiomes, and in turn, help in developing appropriate solutions for managing the undesirable consequences of ballast water.
