Socio Ecological Model (SEM) and Diffusion of Innovation (DOI) Integrated Framework: A Proposal for Integration to Improve Intervention in the Digital Age of Medicine
Authors: Gousse Yolene , Ravenell Joseph , Steptoe Robert , Douglas Dawn , Camille Joanne , Castor Chimene 
Published: December 2024

Health promotion intervention theory must adapt as evidence grows to support the complexities of social and behavioral health fields. Following the COVID-19 pandemic, digital health continues to grow, requiring a re-evaluation of traditional models’ applicability to these approaches. The authors propose adapting and integrating the Socio-Ecological Model (SEM) and Diffusion of Innovation (DOI) models for application with digital health to deliver interventions. We also describe the application of the SEM-DOI integration in conjunction with a demonstration project, a digital intervention to improve Metabolic Syndromes (MetS) health outcomes. Future health interventions may consider the proposed SEM-DOI model to account for individual and community-level factors during implementation and use as a guide for meaningful evaluation. Adaptations of theoretical models to current-state interventions and integration of multiple, established models are needed to sustain prevention efforts and efficacy over time.

Objectives:
The development of hypertension is influenced by a range of factors including diet, obesity, physical activity, family history, and alcohol/tobacco use. This study was aimed at evaluating cardiovascular risks, predisposing risk factors for hypertension, as well as assessing awareness of hypertension and its associated risk factors among civil servants in Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria.

Materials and Methods:
A cross-sectional survey carried out among civil servants working with the Akwa Ibom State Government at the State secretariat in Uyo, Nigeria. A convenient sampling technique was used in recruiting participants for the survey. Recruited participants were interviewed using a suitably designed, pre-tested data collection instrument. The interview was targeted at identifying predisposing risk factors for hypertension among the participants as well as assessing the respondents’ awareness of hypertension and its associated risk factors. Furthermore, the recruited participants were subjected to a cardiovascular risk assessment screening, namely, blood pressure check, pulse rate check, and body mass index determination. Descriptive statistics was used to summarize data, while Pearson’s Chi-square test (χ2) was used to assess the association between variables with statistical significance set at P < 0.05.

Results:
Two hundred and twenty-nine civil servants participated in this study. About 61.6% (141) of the study participants were female, while 129 (56.3%) of the participants had a positive family history of hypertension. About 41.0% (94) of the participants had blood pressure readings in the hypertensive range, with 48 (21.0%) of them being obese. The mean knowledge score of the risk factors for hypertension among the study participants was 5.61 (Standard deviation = ±3.309; Minimum = 0; Maximum = 10), with 36.2% (83) of the participants having a poor level of knowledge (score <5). There was no statistically significant relationship (P > 0.05) between participants’ knowledge of hypertension risk factors and their sociodemographic variables, family history of hypertension, and lifestyle.

Conclusion:
A significant proportion of the participants had a high risk for cardiovascular disorders. The prevalence of predisposing factors for hypertension among the civil servants was high. Knowledge of the risk factors for hypertension was less than optimal. There is a need for enhanced public health enlightenment campaigns on hypertension and its associated cardiovascular risks among this population.

Background:
Orbital bullet injuries resulting from high-velocity trauma pose significant clinical challenges due to the potential for severe ocular and systemic complications. This meta-analysis consolidates the existing body of knowledge on direct orbital bullet injuries with respect to clinical outcomes, management strategies, and long-term effects.

Methods:
The literature search was conducted by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses, using databases such as PubMed and Scopus. Seventeen articles were reviewed, out of which six studies met the inclusion criteria. Extracted data included details on study design, sample size, patient demographics, projectile type, clinical presentation, imaging modalities used in establishing the diagnosis, surgical interventions performed, duration of follow-up, and the outcomes achieved. Data synthesis was done using fixed and random effects models; heterogeneity testing was assessed using the I2 statistic.

Results:
A total of 688 patients with orbital bullet injuries were analyzed. The average age years ranged from 7 to 58, with a predilection for the male gender, about 70%. These injuries caused marked visual impairment, which included optic nerve injuries, legal blindness, cornea injuries, hyphema, orbital fractures, vitreous hemorrhage, lid lacerations, cataracts, and retinal injuries. Optic nerve injuries exhibited substantial variability (I2 = 100%, H2 = 1.254 × 108). Legal blindness was common (I2 = 100%, H2 = 1.628 × 107), with high rates reported in conflict zones. Corneal injuries and hyphema were also prevalent, with significant heterogeneity observed (I2 = 100%, H2 = 8.183 × 106 for corneal injuries and I2 = 99.861%, H2 = 721.638 for hyphema). Only orbital fractures, vitreous hemorrhage, lid lacerations, cataracts, and retinal injuries showed very high heterogeneity with varying clinical presentation. Early surgical intervention and advanced imaging techniques played a very vital role in the management of these injuries and those which improved the prognosis of outcome.

Conclusion:
Orbital bullet injuries remain a great clinical challenge and are very variable in nature. This huge variability of injury patterns and outcomes enjoins that treatment must be individualized, with very early intervention, evolved imaging modalities, and thorough surgical management for the best possible improvement in the patient’s outcomes and prevention of long-term sequelae. Further studies should be done to come up with unified guidelines regarding the evaluation and treatment of such complex injuries.
Use of “enhanced contact endoscopy for pituitary surgery” in a collision sellar tumor (papillary craniopharyngioma + non-functional pituitary adenoma): Representative case illustration and two-dimensional operative video
Authors: Burgos-Sosa Erik , Julian-Mendoza Jose de Jesus , Mancilla-Mejía Francisco Javier , García-Guzmán Berenice , Ramírez-Espíndola Refugio , Curiel-Valdes Jose Jesus , Taylor-Martínez Mario A. , Dorantes-Argandar Agustín 
Published: December 2024

Background:
Collision sellar tumors are rare disease entities. Less than 30 cases have been reported in the literature in the last 20 years. We present the case of one patient diagnosed with a collision sellar tumor and describe the use of Enhanced Contact Endoscopy for pituitary gland and tumoral identification not previously described in the literature.

Case Description:
The patient is a 57-year-old man who presented with visual field deficits and intense frontal headache accompanied by a slight hypothyroidism. Magnetic resonance imaging shows two different lesions in the sellar area, with a pendular effect of the pituitary stalk displaced to the side of the pituitary adenoma. The patient was operated on with an endoscopic endonasal subsellar approach, aiding with an enhanced contact endoscopy to demarcate the pituitary gland from the tumor adequately. Pathology diagnosis was compatible with pituitary adenoma (First lesion) and papillary craniopharyngioma (Second lesion). A short surgical video was added to complement the learning of the technique for enhanced contact endoscopy for a description of the microvasculature pattern.

Conclusion:
Collision sellar tumors are a rare pathology in the sellar region and could benefit from a variety of combined treatments for optimal outcomes. Enhanced contact endoscopy for pituitary surgery could be useful for distinguishing the normal pituitary gland from the tumor.
ВЛИЯНИЕ ПЛОДОВ КОРИАНДРА ПОСЕВНОГО И ФЕНХЕЛЯ ОБЫКНОВЕННОГО НА ПРОДУКТИВНЫЕ КАЧЕСТВА КУР-НЕСУШЕК В ПЕРИОД ПОЛОВОГО СОЗРЕВАНИЯ

В настоящее время в Российской Федерации инициируется разработка технологий кормления птицы с использованием фитогенных добавок. Цель работы - изучение влияние добавки семян кориандра посевного и фенхеля обыкновенного на общее физиологическое состояние и продуктивность кур-несушек. Для проведения опыта было сформировано 3 группы кур кросса Хайсекс Браун (n=30) в возрасте 12 недель, Контрольная группа получала основной рацион без добавок. Опытные группы, начиная с 12-й недели получали стандартный рацион с добавлением обрушенных плодов кориандра посевного или фенхеля обыкновенного в количестве 1 г/сут. В группе кориандра были выше по отношению к контролю живая масса (Р<0,05) и яйценоскость (Р<0,1) в период интенсивной яйцекладки. Бракованные яйца чаще встречались в контрольной группе. По данным гематологического исследования, добавки кориандра и фенхеля не оказывают негативного влияния на состояние здоровья кур-несушек. Выявлена тенденция повышения доли желтка в составе яйца, что можно считать положительным эффектом фитогенов, поскольку в желтке имеются незаменимые жирные кислоты, витамины и другие полезные соединения. Заключили, что добавление обрушенных плодов кориандра в рацион кур-несушек оказывает положительное влияние на продуктивность и качество яиц.
Currently, the Russian Federation is initiating the development of poultry feeding technologies using phytogenic additives. The aim of the work is to study the effect of adding coriander and fennel on the general physiological state and productivity of laying hens during sexual maturity and oviposition. To conduct the experiment, 3 groups of laying hens of the Hise x Brown cross (n=30) aged 12 weeks were formed. The control group received the basic diet without additives. The experimental groups, starting from (at what age?) received a standard diet with the addition of ground coriander and fennel in the amount of 1 g / day. In the coriander group, live weight (P 0.05) and egg production (P 0.1) were higher in relation to the control during the peak of egg production. Defective eggs were more common in the control group. According to the hematological study, coriander and fennel additives do not have a negative effect on the health of laying hens. A tendency was revealed to increase the proportion of yolk in the egg, which can be considered a positive effect of phytogens, since the yolk contains essential fatty acids, vitamins and other useful compounds, and the protein only contains protein.
Некоторые аспекты международно-правового регулирования ограничений пропаганды
Authors: Бадина Д.А. 
Published: December 2024

Актуальность темы статьи обусловлена тем, что ни одно современное демократически развитое государство не может существовать обособленно, в отрыве от международного сообщества, и Российская Федерация — не исключение. Россия является участником ряда международных правовых актов, которые представляют собой часть ядра источников конституционного права государства. В этой связи злободневным является вопрос, как практически на международном уровне осуществляется балансирование между правами граждан на свободное выражения мнения, ведение пропаганды, с одной стороны, и ограничением этих прав по определенным основаниям — с другой. Цель работы — исследование фундаментальных международных нормативных правовых актов, регулирующих ограничения свободы выражения мнений, проведения пропаганды, а также рассмотрение практических материалов, касающихся данной проблемы. Методологию исследования составляют индукция, анализ, сравнительно-правовой метод, синтез, а также метод сопоставительного анализа. В результате исследования проанализированы фундаментальные международные акты в области прав человека и гражданина на предмет закрепления свободы выражения мнений, пропаганды, а также установленные данными актами ограничения. Рассмотрены и сделаны выводы по сложившейся правоприменительной практике Комитета ООН по правам человека в рамках исследованных нормативных актов.
The relevance of the topic of the article is due to the fact that not a single modern democratically developed state can exist in isolation, in isolation from the international community, and the Russian Federation is no exception. Russia is a party to a number of international legal acts, which are part of the core of the sources of the constitutional law of the state. In this regard, the topical issue is how practically at the international level the balancing is carried out between the rights of citizens to freely express their opinions, conduct propaganda, on the one hand, and the restriction of these rights on certain grounds, on the other. The purpose of the work is to study fundamental international normative legal acts regulating restrictions on freedom of expression, propaganda, as well as consideration of practical materials related to this problem. The research methodology consists of induction, analysis, comparative legal method, synthesis, as well as the method of comparative analysis. As a result of the study, fundamental international acts in the field of human and civil rights were analyzed in order to secure freedom of expression, propaganda, as well as the restrictions established by these acts. Considered and made conclusions on the current law enforcement practice of the UN Committee on Human Rights in the framework of the studied normative acts.

Se debe tener un sistema que ayude a tomar decisiones para lo cual debemos tener las rutinas que nos permitan que las personas que están tomando las decisiones tengan esa visibilidad. En el caso de Cajamarca algo que fue fundamental, muy parecido a lo de Cusco, fue que los líderes del hospital supieran cuánto esperaban sus pacientes porque no lo sabían, no tenían una manera de medir los tiempos de espera y cuando vieron esos números primero no los creían y luego cuando empezaron a ver las historias detrás de esos números se dieron cuenta de que sí eran reales y que había una oportunidad para mejorar. Pasa en todo el Perú, cuando las tasas de rotación del personal son tan altas sobre todo en puestos de liderazgo. Por ello es importante interactuar con toda la cadena de implementación.
Fatores determinantes no entendimento sobre turismo:
Authors: Delgado Anna Karenina Chaves 
Published: December 2024

Os alunos iniciantes no estudo do turismo se deparam com a necessidade de compreender o que é turismo. Considerando que alguns possuem uma ideia baseada no senso comum, podem apresentar dificuldade inicialmente em perceber as minucias associada ao turismo. Assim, ao longo de seis anos de docência em componentes curriculares iniciais de cursos (superiores e técnicos subsequentes) ofertados em uma instituição federal de ensino foram compiladas as principais dúvidas e a partir destas realizou-se uma pesquisa bibliográfica buscando responder aos questionamentos a luz de pesquisas realizadas por estudiosos da área. Notou-se que aspectos como mobilidade, novas relações estabelecidas entre trabalho e viagens, temporalidade, entre outros aspectos, tem tornado a criação de uma definição única sobre turismo mais complexa, requerendo do discente o desenvolvimento de um senso crítico para que entendam de forma ampla o vem a ser turismo.
Como confiscar a democracia de um país sem aplicar um golpe?
Authors: Rossatti João Paulo , Rezzieri Raphaela 
Published: December 2024

Este artigo procura analisar as marcas do discurso neoliberal na revista Veja durante os primeiros anos do governo José Sarney (da posse em março de 1985 até as eleições parlamentares de 1986). Primeiro elemento dessa análise é tratar a revista como um sujeito midiático, isto é, como um indivíduo dotado de uma visão de mundo e ideologia que baseiam quem ele é, como age e o que deseja do mundo e para ele. Segundo, a análise articula a análise de obras de Ludwig von Mises a Friedrich von Hayek no intento de mostrar como essas ideias já circulavam pela esfera pública e, por conseguinte, foram assimiladas pelo sujeito Veja e disseminadas através de suas páginas aos leitores/sujeitos consumidores. Com isso, o que buscamos mostrar, ao final do texto, foi o modo como este sujeito procurou agir de modo ativo (e não desinteressado) na construção de um tipo específico de democracia.
Finanças empreendedoras no Brasil
Authors: Peres Júnior Miguel Rivera , Tonelli Adriano Olímpio , Castro Isabela de Souza 
Published: December 2024

A expansão de novos negócios, principalmente baseados em modelos de negócios inovadores, escaláveis e recorrentes (startups), associada a fenômenos contemporâneos como a globalização e os avanços tecnológicos, ampliou as possibilidades de financiamento a esses empreendimentos. Para acompanhar tal tendência, houve uma expansão do campo de estudos das finanças empreendedoras (entrepreneurial finance) nos últimos anos. Diante disso, o presente trabalho visa desenvolver uma revisão bibliométrica do campo de finanças empreendedoras, com base nas publicações que tratam do tema envolvendo o Brasil. Os resultados mostram um descolamento da produção sobre o Brasil do “mainstrream” das finanças empreendedoras em relação aos grupos de pesquisa atuantes, às referências utilizadas e aos temas abordados. Se essa desconexão indica certo alheamento às produções mundiais ou demonstra a independência deliberada frente ao conhecimento ora consolidado, tais hipóteses carecem de investigação aprofundada.

ENTREPRENEURIAL FINANCE IN BRAZIL: A BIBLIOMETRIC STUDY
Abstract
The expansion of new businesses, mainly based on innovative, scalable and recurring business models (startups) associated with contemporary phenomena such as globalization and technological advances have expanded the possibilities of financing these ventures. To keep up with this trend, there has been an expansion of the field of entrepreneurial finance studies in recent years. Accordingly, this paper aims to develop a bibliometric review of the field of entrepreneurial finance, based on publications that address the subject in Brazil. The results show a disconnection of production on the country from the “mainstream” of entrepreneurial finance in relation to the active research groups, the references used and the topics addressed. Whether this disconnect indicates a certain detachment from global productions or demonstrates deliberate independence from the currently consolidated knowledge, such hypotheses require in-depth investigation.

Authors: Kadhim Dheyaa Jabbar 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
Since the focus of healthcare has shifted toward prevention, pharmacists were highly encouraged to expand their practice to include vaccination services. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the attitude of Iraqi community pharmacists to provide vaccination and to explore the expected barriers to provide such services at community setting. The present study was a cross-sectional online survey study that included 135 Iraqi community pharmacists who are licensed by the Iraqi syndicate of pharmacists. The first part of the survey questionnaire is related to sociodemographic characteristics. The 2nd part assessed the attitudes of community pharmacists towards delivering vaccination service in community pharmacy setting. The 3rd section explore barriers that community pharmacists expected to face when delivering vaccines. Among the 135 participants, 59 (43.7%) showed high positive attitude and 65 (48.14%) reported high barriers level. Only (45.93%) of respondents agreed that community pharmacists have a good knowledge about vaccination and only (42.22%) of them agreed that vaccination by community pharmacists will lower the cost to the patients. In addition, (79.26%) of them agreed that providing vaccination through community pharmacy will improve the rate of vaccination in general. Regarding barriers, results of the current study showed that the most common two barriers to provide vaccination services were lack of authorization and lack of continuous training and workshops [(85.19%) for each]. Pharmacists with Bachelor degree had significantly higher positive attitude compared with those having higher academic degrees. In addition, pharmacists with working experience of 5 years or less had significantly higher barrier score compared to those with more than 5 years working experience. In conclusion, despite their desire to increase their knowledge, less than half of Iraqi community pharmacists reported a positive attitude toward the introduction of a community-based vaccination program. In addition, many barriers about implementing vaccination services were found in the current study.

Purpose: To report on the development, implementation, and evaluation of a facilitated Black admissions program (FBAP) in a Canadian physiotherapy program in 2023. Methods: We observed and reported on the development and application process of a FBAP in a Master of Science Physiotherapy [MSc(PT)] program, and the characteristics and results of applicants who applied through the FBAP and compared their interview experience with the conventional stream of applicants in the MSc(PT) program. We summarized the candidate data from the streams using descriptive statistics and then compared the stream's interview score means and the evaluator scores between and within streams by calculating intraclass correlation coefficients and standard errors of measurements. Results: Our analysis revealed the mean scores of the FBAP were significantly higher than those of the conventional stream ( p = 0.018). There was no difference in the correlation between sub-GPA and interview scores for the two streams. In addition, the comparison of the interrater reliability of the FBAP (ICC: 0.76; 95% CI: 0.43, 0.90) and the conventional stream (ICC: 0.82; 95% CI: 0.79, 0.84), demonstrated alignment with no significant difference. Conclusions: In 2023, McMaster University successfully implemented the first iteration of the FBAP stream and fulfilled a vision that began in 2021 to increase the diversity of underrepresented minorities and decrease historical barriers for Black applicants in their MSc(PT) admissions processes.
