Published: September 2021

The approach of cross themes is an option to facilitate the teaching and learning process of Chemistry. This study aimed to verify how the issue of biodiesel is being treated in chemistry classes in high school and its presence in the textbooks adopted by the teachers. For this purpouse, high school Chemistry teachers of five schools of Campina Grande-PB answered a questionnaire with open questions to collect data. The textbooks used were of the authors Geraldo Camargo (1997), Usberco and Salvador (2006), Sardella (2004) and Feltre (2005), where this last one was the most widely accepted and the only that is part of the federal government's program of Chemistry textbooks for high school. Regarding the presence of the theme of biodiesel in the textbook adopted, some teachers were unsafe in their answer or did not know how to answer, which shows that some of them do not have an idea about the content of the book they use. Most teachers claimed lack of time to address theme and it was showed that many of them followed the book adopted strictly. Then if the book does not cover the content, the teacher also did not do it.

Published: September 2021

Cutaneous leishmaniasis is gradually becoming an increasing public health concern. Therefore, it is essential to generate knowledge on the epidemiological determinants of the infection to develop effective control strategies on the transmission of the disease. Environmental changes, the immune status of the host, and treatment failure are the three most important risk factors associated with cutaneous leishmaniasis. The aim of this study was the prevalence of cutaneous leishmaniasis at the ALERT center, over a five-year (2014-2018). A total of 2329 study participants comprising 1174 (50.4%) males and 1155 (49.6%,) females participated. The data was collected retrospectively from ALERT center clinical laboratory records within the study period (2014-2018).          The overall prevalence of cutaneous leishmaniasis among the study participants was 33%. Of this, the prevalence of cutaneous leishmaniasis among male and female study participants was 34.9% and 31.1%, respectively. The prevalence in the age group less than 18, 19-28, 29-38, and greater than 39 years was 37.0%, 26.6%, 13.3%, and 23.1%, respectively.          Generally, this study showed that cutaneous leishmaniasis, prevalent in the study area, is still a public health problem associated with many risk factors. Hence, there is a need to implement a sound control program, strengthened behavioral change, communication, and social mobilization-related activities.
Corporate Social Responsibility and Firm Performance in SMEs: Empirical Evidence from Cameroon
Authors: Ramecesse Ateufack Djogho
Published: September 2021

We examined the mediating effects of corporate governance and image on CSR and performance link. We find CSR positive related to firm performance but insignificant. We further established CSR and FP are positive and insignificant without the existence of CI and CG but becomes significant with the inclusion of both mediating variables. Therefore, corporate governance codes and principles should be enhanced in Cameroon, since CSR engagement helps in better governance practice through establishing good internal controls and monitoring that ultimately enhances a firm financial performance. Several policy recommendations were discussed.

La familia en la historia de Jesús
Authors: Montes Peral Luis Ángel
Published: September 2021

La historia de Jesús testimonia dos clases de familia: la biológica y la escatològica. Constituye un hecho incuestionable que, durante su actividad pública, Jesús estuvo desasido de la familia terrena, como se constata en la relación que mantuvo con su madre María. Puso todo su empeño en congregar en torno suyo a la familia de los hijos y hermanos del reino, para presentársela al Padre como ofrenda agradable a sus ojos. Por la familia Dei desgastó su vida e incluso se entregó a la muerte. Después de la resurrección, su familia de la carne y de la sangre se convierte en parte fundamental de la familia escatològica. Tiene una presencia bien significativa en la más primitiva comunidad de Jerusalén (Hch 1,14) y su primo hermano Santiago (Me 6,3) llega a ocupar la presidencia de la comunidad madre del cristianismo.
La OALA en sus cuarenta años de Historia
Authors: García Sánchez Joaquín
Published: September 2021

La década del 70 al 80 fue un momento de efervescencias fruto del Vaticano II al interior de la Iglesia. La Orden de San Agustín no podía estar ajena a estos cambios, sobre todo, después del Capítulo General Intermedio del año 1968, celebrado en Villanova. La primera reunión de lo que habría de ser en el futuro la Organización de Agustinos en América Latina (OALA) se celebraría en Quito (Ecuador) al año siguiente, en abril de 1969. Sería el comienzo de un largo proceso que culminaría con la reunión de Chile de este acontecimiento agustiniano. Fuerzas diferentes, progresistas y conservadores, han animado este proyecto durante estas cuatro décadas, que al autor describe minuciosamente. Concluye con una serie de observaciones y recomendaciones.

Published: September 2021

Aim: To detect the novel mutation in VANGL1 gene indicating genetic association of Myelomeningocele. Methodology: The study design was cross sectional. It comprises of sixty individuals, of them fifty were diagnosed cases of myelomeningocele and ten were healthy individuals taken as controls. The cases were collected from Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Center. The study was carried out in Dow Diagnostic and Research Laboratory (D.D.R.L.). Most of the patients were less than one year of age. The cases were evaluated for various other parameters like site and size of cyst and associated features like presence of hydrocephalus in the individuals. Since folic acid deficiency is the key component in the causation of the disease so mothers were also asked about the consumption of folic acid. Blood was drawn from patients after a written permission from the parents of the concerned patient. It was followed by the conduction of PCR to seek for any mutation in VANGL1 gene. Results: We found a rare mutation in VANGL1 gene revealing substitution of valine to serine at position 239 i.e. V239S. Hydrocephalus being the associated anomaly was present in 32% of the patients. Most of the affected individuals were males. 98% mothers of the sufferers did not take folic acid during pregnancy. In most of the patients, lump was present on the lumbar region. Conclusion: Myelomeningocele is a congenital birth defect with lifelong complications. Its prevalence can be decreased by taking certain measures. Periconceptional intake of folic acid has been established to lessen the risk of the disease. We identified a rare mutation in VANGL1 gene that may result in the causation of myelomeningocele. Keywords: Neural tube defects, mutation, myelomeningocele.

Published: September 2021

Background: Affective temperament may strongly influence psychopathological characteristics in mood disorders such as clinical course of major or minor affective episodes, predominant polarity, clinical symptoms, long term clinical course, suicidality, and response/adherence to medication.Objective: The objective of this work is evaluate the association between affective temperament and clinical characteristics in bipolar disorder (BD) patients.Method: 88 euthymic bipolar patients were evaluated through Hamilton Depression Scale (HAM-D), Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS), Clinical Global Impressions Scale for use in bipolar illness (CGI-BP), and TEMPS-Rio de Janeiro. Identification, sociodemographic data, and clinical information as age on disease onset, number of manic episodes, number of depressive episodes, polarity of first affective episode, and history of suicidal attempts, if any, from each patient were collected.Results: Our results founded that high scores in cyclothymic, irritable, depressive and anxious temperaments were associated with at least one suicide attempt. Higher scores of anxious temperament were associated with depressive polarity in the first episode of the disease as well as higher amount of manic episodes. Higher scores of hyperthymic temperament were associated with manic polarity in the first episode of the disease. Higher scores of depressive temperament were associated with higher scores in total HAM-D and specifically with higher scores in items 1 and 2 of HAM-D, i.e., depressive mood and guilt. No correlation was found between temperament and intensity of subsyndromal manic symptoms.Conclusion: We concluded that affective temperaments in BD are associated with history of suicide attempts, seem to influence polarity of first episode and that depressive temperament seems to relate to more intense subsyndromal depressive symptoms, especially depressive mood and guilt.
Perspectivas feministas e cinema: uma possibilidade de recusa à homofobia pela universidade
Authors: Azevedo Sabine De Almeida
Published: September 2021

Este artigo busca descrever a aliança entre as perspectivas feministas e o cinema insurgente como inovação que permite o enfrentamento da homofobia pela universidade. A homofobia e os prejuízos sociais que decorrem dela desafiam marcos democráticos e de justiça social. Estratégias discursivas e visuais sustentam essa prática discriminatória, inclusive, no campo educacional. Argumentamos que a produção cinematográfica que apresenta modos de viver e personagens fora da heteronorma possibilita a recusa dos fenômenos de padronização e criação de novos afetos e formas de convivência, ou seja, constitui uma forma de combater a política de precarização que a homofobia institui. A responsabilidade social e política da universidade deve assegurar as condições necessárias para que todos os sujeitos vivam e prosperem, minimizando o regime desigual que práticas e discursos discriminatórios fazem por manter.
Controversies in the use of informed consent in health care - Controvérsias ao uso do termo de consentimento informado na assistência à saúde
Authors: Maristela Silva Freitas
Published: September 2021

O termo de consentimento informado (TCI) é o documento que evidencia a implementação do processo de consentimento informado na prática assistencial em saúde. Apesar de representar uma evidência do respeito à autonomia e dignidade do paciente neste contexto, e ser uma exigência ética e legal na prática da medicina, há autores que apresentam controvérsias ao seu uso no âmbito da relação médico-paciente, alegando que a obtenção do documento burocratiza esta relação, torna o trabalho do profissional mais exaustivo e aumenta o custo da assistência. Também existem referências ao fato de que como um contrato, a formalização do TCI não garante que haja equilíbrio entre os interesses das partes envolvidas. Buscando um melhor entendimento acerca destas críticas, este artigo teve por objetivo apresentar e analisar controvérsias à formalização do processo de consentimento informado através do TCI.

Poucos estudos avaliaram a diferença dos efeitos de drogas no gênero  utilizando instrumentos para este fim. Este estudo avaliou o uso de actígrafos simples (pulseiras inteligentes) comparando a influência dos gêneros e uso de nicotina nos padrões de sono e vigília. A amostra foi composta por estudantes universitários de ambos os gêneros, fumantes e não fumantes (n=40). As pulseiras inteligentes foram usadas por 7 dias. Uma ANOVA two way indicou que mulheres dormem mais, apresentando mais sono leve e interrupções do sono noturno. Fumantes apresentaram menor tempo de sono profundo. Os resultados foram coerentes com a literatura. As variáveis do dispositivo correlacionaram significativamente entre si e com os diários do sono. Concluímos sobre a viabilidade do uso de instrumentos de baixo custo e de simples utilização em estudos do sono, o que pode ser útil em pacientes pouco colaborativos.
COVID 19: Bioethics, the racial line and ethical praxis
Authors: Sassi Juliana
Published: September 2021

This article reflects upon the limits and potential of bioethics in a society in which not only people's values are hierarchised along racial lines, but the public and private interests are also structurally antagonised. The author focused on the experience of migrants and asylum seekers in Ireland during the COVID 19 Pandemic. Developing a literature review on bioethics and race, the author locates this case study within the liberal rationality, which is individualist and ultimately values people according to the market needs. Applying the concept of racial capitalism to make sense of racialisation processes, the author claims the need to build ethics that is also practice, what she calls, ethical praxis.

In this article the subjects of discussion are importance and role of media literacy in the modern society. Te authors gave us a short review of the activities in the feld of media literacy in Bosnia and Herzegovina, importance of media literacy and the role of lifelong learning centres for the development of this concept. Media scene in B&H is extremely complex and the citizens are exposed to diﬀerent contents of numerous media,74 Belma Buljubašić, Lejla Turčilo which also includes propaganda activities, fake news, disinformation, etc. In education policies in B&H the signifcance of this concept has not been recognised, and the
students do not study media and information literacy in the process of formal education. Furthermore, media literacy for adults is neither being considered nor developed, hence the authors suggest that the lifelong learning centres could (and should) be the places where the aspects of media literacy are tackled through short-term and long-term training programmes.

Published: September 2021

Adult learning and phenomena of stress and trauma are not often connected within scientific entities or integrated into practical teaching. However, adult education theory and multidimensional model of coping - BASIC Ph - have a mutual subject: work with humans. During the process of learning and teaching adults gain insights and self-insights, which often lead to behavioral change and BASIC Ph insists exactly on the fact that humans can learn about coping strategies and therefore can support self-development. Based on comprehensive study on quality of communication with chronically ill children, their families, schools and medical staff, two dissertations and postgraduate pedagogy studies, with different research tasks, have applied the same theoretical concept and brought valuable insights on practical use of BASIC Ph in work with ill children. Thus this paper interprets the results of all three studies from the perspective of adult education and aims to demonstrate the utilization of BASIC Ph model in adult learning and teaching.

The government’s efforts of the Special Region of Yogyakarta (Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta/DIY) government for self-sufficiency in meat certainly have obstacles, one of which is the productivity of livestock development which is hampered by parasitic diseases such as Fascioliasis. Fascioliasis is a disease caused by F. hepatica or F. gigantica. To find out the relationship between risk factors for Fascioliasis disease in a spatial region, it can use spatial modeling by integrating remote sensing technology and Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Spatial modeling can be used to determine the correlation between risk factors and can also be integrated with secondary data to obtain more comprehensive information. The method used in this study is a combination of various quantitative methods consisting of data processing based on remote sensing and GIS for risk factor analysis. Besides, some variables are not obtained quantitatively, namely livestock management variables obtained by structured interviews with livestock owners and veterinary experts. In general, DIY has a moderate risk level for Fascioliasis parasites. Although there are common levels of risk, the conditions of vulnerability and vulnerability of the constituents may differ, which implies different livestock management strategies.

The problem in this study is the existence of community activities that dispose of household waste and toilet waste directly into the Poopoh River. This study aims to analyze and obtain river water quality data. This type of research is a quantitative research using a fixed sample water sampling method. The parameters measured were pH, DO (Dissolved Oxygen), BOD (Biological Oxygen Demand), and TSS (Total Suspended Solid). The results showed that there had been a decrease in the quality of river water in the downstream part of the river as seen from the results of laboratory tests which stated that the pH level in the upstream part of the river reached 6.94 and downstream increased to 7.98. The level of BOD in the upper reaches of the river is 1.8 and in the lower reaches of the river rises to 26.95. The DO level in the upstream part of the river is 7.5 and at the downstream level, it drops to 1.62. The TSS level in the upper reaches of the river is 5 and in the lower reaches of the river, it has increased to 20. It can be seen that there has been a decrease in the quality of river water from upstream to downstream, especially in the parameters of BOD and DO.
STREET TRADE AND THE ATTAINMENT OF URBAN RESILIENCE AND ADAPTATION IN LAGOS, NIGERIA
Authors: Omoegon Ademola
Published: September 2021

Rapid urbanization rates and the proliferation of informal activities in vulnerable locations present significant challenges to urban resilience and adaptation, particularly in cities seeking to reduce poverty and improve economic growth. Inclusive urban governance has been identified as being vital to building resilience. Informal employment is the life blood of African cities, as evidenced by the multitude of street traders which abound in urban areas. However, in recent times many city authorities in Africa have adopted neo-liberal development policies which have led to the sanitization of public space and displacement of street traders, as well as a consequent worsening of the already precarious working conditions of traders and a significant damage of their limited associational structure, thus reducing their capacity to participate in urban governance. Through a case study of Lagos, Nigeria which possesses the largest informal economy in Africa, this paper examines the challenges which associations of the working poor face and the effect of this on urban resilience efforts. By exploring the experiences of street traders, the paper aims to investigate their current forms of organisation, their role in urban governance and how these factors can enhance or hinder urban resilience and adaptation.

This research examines the typological analysis of housing development in the peri-urban settlements of Lagos State, Nigeria. Case study methodology was adopted, using random sampling to select housing developments under different housing initiatives, in purposely selected peri-urban settlements in Ibeju-Lekki Local Government Area of Lagos State. Primary data collection was from survey questionnaires, direct observations and in-depth interviews administered to household heads in the case study area. Data analysis was done using descriptive statics to generate frequencies, percentages, cross tabulations of the variables. Findings showed different housing typologies under three categories: owner occupied, part rental and full rental housing. Housing typologies in the study area were influenced by different housing initiatives, and the socio-economic attributes of the residents revealed a heterogeneous mix of the population in terms of culture, literacy level and household size. Based on the research findings it is recommended that the residents' socio-demography should be put into consideration in building typology designs, to enhance effective user performance in peri-urban housing development under diverse housing development schemes in Lagos State.

Published: September 2021

The British colonial buildings in the city of Lahore were mainly constructed with fair face bricks. The different forms and decorative styles of bricks were used in the building facade that formed the characteristic British Colonial Style. This study focuses on the comparative analysis of the contemporary and colonial bricks for their durability and salt deposits in the present scenario. The representative brick samples have been collected from the selected buildings for their physical, mechanical and chemical testing, to generate data for comparative analysis in addition to the visual examination of buildings for the study of deterioration factors. The results clearly depict that the contemporary bricks composition and manufacturing techniques are different from the colonial bricks. The high content of soluble salts in the contemporary bricks was found to be responsible for salt deposits in contemporary bricks and one of the main cause of failure in the restoration works of the colonial buildings.

EXPLORING THE VIRTUAL MARKET OF RECYCLING: A CASE STUDY IMPROVINGWASTE REUSE AND RECYCLING IN BANGKOK
Authors: Ali Mansoor , Paaopanchon Sutima
Published: September 2021

Increasing quantities of solid waste is a global challenge for many urban areas in industrializing countries, such as Thailand. United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set clear targets and indicators to improve the waste situation globally. These targets include higher collection rates, safe disposal practices and enhancing the rates of waste reuse and recycling. Bangkok, with a population of 9.5 million (Population of 2018) is facing a number of challenges in solid waste management. These challenges include an increasing quantity of waste, a shortage of waste disposal sites, and reduced incentives to reuse and recycle waste. While at the same time, 80% of the population has active internet and phone connections (Internet World Statistics, 2018). This paper explores the viability of a virtual waste market in Bangkok by connecting the supply and demand of recyclable waste materials through a mobile application. Particularly, its viability is explored in the nexus between government institutions, informal systems of waste recycling, and in Bangkok population groups. Behaviors and attitudes towards the use of virtual markets to enhance recycling rates have been studied, while key actors (especially those who directly deal with the waste generators) in the recycling chain are also interviewed. The paper concludes that the concept of a virtual market through a mobile application offers the potential to enhance connection between supply and demand. A virtual market offers the advantage of real time information regarding the material’s quality, quantity, prices and locations. It also offers faster and reliable transfer of money. Buyers and sellers can even rate the quality of each other’s services. However, to achieve the full advantages and to build a system, all the actors in the chain need to be connected. The study found that itinerant waste buyers and waste pickers directly access the waste and deal with the waste generators. While these groups are the most important links in the chain, they have a low connectivity to mobile phones and hence could not acquire full benefits of the virtual market. Virtual market works well when the connectivity is available to all the relevant groups. The paper concludes that recycling and reuse rates of waste materials can be increased through virtual market if the support is targeted to connect all.
