Exploring Five Modes of Thinking for Qualitative Data Analysis on Ikeda Studies
Authors: Kuo Nai-Cheng , Gilbreath Molly 
Published: December 2024

Amaç: Bu makale, Freeman'ın (2017) nitel veri analizi için beş düşünme biçimine (yani kategorik, anlatısal, diyalektik, şiirsel ve diyagramatik) genel bir bakış sunar ve her bir biçimin Daisaku Ikeda'nın küresel liderler ve akademisyenlerle yaptığı 42 barış diyaloğunu analiz etmek için nasıl uygulanabileceğine dair somut örnekler sunar. Makale, Ikeda'nın barış diyaloglarını birden fazla düşünme biçimiyle anlamanın neden önemli olduğunu ve Ikeda'nın diyaloglarında barışın hangi bileşen boyutlarının örneklendirildiğini ele almaktadır.
Yöntem: Araştırma nitel bir veri analizi, özellikle bir belge analizi içeriyordu. Bu, Ikeda'nın yayınlanmış diyaloglarını bulmayı ve toplamayı içeriyordu, bunlardan 42'si üç kriteri karşılıyordu (yani, İngilizce dil kullanılabilirliği, barışla ilgili konuları kapsayan diyaloglar ve kaynaklarının doğruluğu). Öz-yansıtıcılık, veri toplama ve analiziyle ilgili kendi sınırlamalarımızı ve inançlarımızı eleştirel bir şekilde incelemek için kullanıldı.
Bulgular : Bulgular, çoklu düşünme biçimlerinin benimsenmesinin, veri analizi sürecinde diyaloglara daha geniş bir bakış açısı sağlama ve ilişkisel ve yaratıcı epistemolojik iç içe geçmeyi teşvik etme açısından avantajlı olduğunu göstermektedir.
Araştırma ve Uygulama İçin Sonuçlar: Gelecekteki araştırmalar, Ikeda'nın barış ve ötesi üzerine diyaloglarının nicel veri analizinde kullanılan farklı düşünme biçimlerinin daha fazla analiz edilmesi ve karşılaştırılması yoluyla mevcut çalışmanın bulgularına dayanabilir.
Decay of bow thruster induced near-bed flow velocities at a vertical quay wall: A field measurement
Authors: Tukker Jim , Ruijter Michel , Van der Vorm-Hoek   Charlotte , Hofland Bas 
Published: December 2024

During berthing operations of large vessels, the bow thruster jet deflecting on the quay wall and the bed can lead to high flow velocities near the bed. This may scour the bed when it is left unprotected, causing instability of the adjacent quay wall. Due to the complex flow field of the reflected jet, the decay in near-bed flow velocities perpendicular to the quay wall is unknown. This results in uncertainties in the design of bed protections, especially in the required width.
In this research, the decay of the near-bed flow velocity perpendicular and parallel to the quay wall induced by a 4-channel bow thruster is studied. Field measurements have been conducted in the North Sea Port of Gent with one of the largest Dutch inland vessels. The near-bed flow velocities have been measured at multiple distances from the quay wall.
For the flow velocity measurements four main parameters have been varied: the applied bow thruster power, quay wall clearance, number of thrusters, and the lateral distance between jet axis and measurement sensors.
The highest flow velocities were measured near the quay wall, rapidly declining while moving away from the quay. Comparison of the measurement results to the Dutch and German guidelines generally leads to the conclusion that these guidelines are conservative. In addition, the dependency of the velocity on the total travelled distance by the jet as given in the Dutch method is not reflected in the measurement results. Furthermore, fundamentally different outcomes on the influence of the quay wall clearance on the near-bed flow velocity have been found.
When the measured near-bed flow velocities are used as the sole input to calculate the required bed protection, significantly smaller rock sizes and asphalt mattress thickness would be necessary to withstand the hydraulic load of the jet in comparison to current guidelines. Further studies with different vessels and direct measurement of the efflux velocity of the thrusters are recommended.

Authors: Pajtinková Bartáková Gabriela , Ganobčík Ján , Halmo Martin 
Published: December 2024

The increasing awareness of environmental degradation has led to a growing demand for sustainable products, prompting the adoption of eco-labelling as a pivotal tool for environmental protection. This article aims to examine eco-labelling's multifaceted role in fostering environmentally responsible consumer choices and incentivising businesses to embrace sustainable practices. By providing a comprehensive overview of the fundamental principles and mechanisms underlying eco-labelling, the paper explores how these labels communicate vital information about a product's ecological impact to consumers. Drawing insights from case studies and existing frameworks, the article evaluates the effectiveness of various eco-labelling programs in influencing consumer behaviour and steering market forces toward sustainability. However, it also addresses challenges such as greenwashing and the lack of standardised criteria, proposing potential solutions to enhance the credibility and transparency of eco-labels. Furthermore, the discussion encompasses the regulatory landscape and industry collaboration, emphasising the crucial role of government policies and collective efforts in fortifying the success of eco-labelling initiatives. In conclusion, the article asserts that eco-labelling is a dynamic force for environmental protection, urging continuous research, collaboration, and refinement to solidify its impact on shaping a more sustainable and eco-conscious marketplace.

Published: December 2024

Tempe is an inherent food source for Indonesians, with a large number of tempe consumers in the local community. This community service program aims to improve students' understanding and skills in processing cempedak seeds into tempe, including drying methods that allow long-term storage. This activity was carried out from July to November 2024. This activity was carried out in several stages, namely the preparation stage, the implementation stage, and the completion stage. The program on the utilization of cempedak seeds in tempeh production shows promising potential as a food innovation based on local resources. The success rate of this program is not only measured from the production aspect, but also from the transfer of knowledge to students who act as agents of change in alternative food development. Some of the advantages of this activity program are that it provides an alternative utilization of cempedak seed waste into products with nutritional value. In addition, the production cost is relatively affordable compared to the use of soybean. The disadvantage of this program is that the availability of raw materials depends on the cempedak harvest season.

Authors: Ejechi Bernard Onyekweli , Ejechi Eucharia Onyema 
Published: December 2024

The applicability of the sociological theory of social practice (SPT) for locating safety intervention points in street food practices was investigated. A randomly selected 100 pushcart street foods/vendors were used for the study. The practice elements enunciated in the social practice theory (materials, competence, social meaning) were identified in pushcart practices by non-participant observation and structured questionnaire. Warmer/containers, plates, dishing spoons, wash-water and food were identified as practice materials. The observed practices bothering on competence were: washing and re-use of plates, opening and closing of food containers, exposure of dishing spoons, use of non-potable wash water and environment of sales points. In order to confirm intervention points indicated by these practices, the presence of coliforms and Salmonella on the elements and sales points (Motor Parks, markets, workshops, construction sites) aerosols were investigated. Coliforms and Salmonella were isolated from the material elements in 16-64% of the pushcarts barely 4 hours after commencement of sales. The choice of sales points was influenced by satisfactory income (meaning element) despite their poor sanitary conditions. The high levels of aerosolised coliforms (2.29-3.38 log cfu/m3) in these sales points indicated environment as an intervention point. This was corroborated by the association between coliform levels on the material elements and the environment (X2=6.32-19.46; P=0.000-0.042). In conclusion, competence and sales environment were indicated as intervention points for pushcart food safety as supported by microbiological analyses. Thus, intervention by encouraging sales of packaged foods in pushcarts can eliminate incompetent handling, vulnerable practice materials and exposure in unsanitary environment.

Published: December 2024

Actualmente existen técnicas revolucionarias para conseguir resultados de rejuvenecimiento con rellenos de ácido hialuronico, sin embargo, en la mayoría de los casos se utiliza una cantidad exagerada, haciendo que el costo de los tratamientos sea muy alto y en ocasiones los resultados no son favorables o naturales para los pacientes. Además, los efectos a largo plazo no se ven tan favorecidos sólo con la utilización de ácido hialurónico, por lo que las nuevas alternativas y tendencias apuntan hacia que los péptidos biomiméticos pueden sumar para formar tratamientos más impactantes y con coste-efectividad más favorables. En este estudio se incluyeron 15 pacientes femeninos a las cuales se les realizó un tratamiento con ácidos hialurónicos adicionados con péptidos biomiméticos, a todas se les aplicó la misma cantidad de ácido hialurónico reticulado de G´ alta en los engrosamientos más importantes de los ligamentos de retención facial y cantidades variables dependiendo de sus necesidades, de ácidos de G´ media y no reticulados. Los resultados se evaluaron de inmediato de forma cuantitativa por medio de un cáliper digital midiendo el lifting facial obtenido y forma cualitativa por medio de encuestas de satisfacción. Los hallazgos revelaron que el lifting facial con los puntos de suspensión ligamentaria superan por mucho, técnicas en donde se requiere más ácido hialurónico y además se percibe a los pacientes más saludables, jóvenes y descansados.
Tomada de decisão da reforma em portugal: a importância dos Preditores micro
Authors: Costa José 
Published: December 2024

Num mundo em que a longevidade humana desafia as noções tradicionais de carreira, as decisões de reforma tornam-se cada vez mais complexas e cruciais para as pessoas e para a sociedade. Esta investigação analisa o papel dos preditores micro da decisão de reforma laboral, comparando quatro opções: antecipação, reforma no tempo normal, reforma parcial (trabalho de ponte) e adiamento. Pretende-se avaliar o impacto da idade, escolaridade, saúde, anos até à reforma, planeamento, volição no trabalho e salário na reforma. Uma amostra de 600 participantes, com idades entre 50 e 85 anos, residentes em Portugal continental, respondeu a um inquérito online no segundo semestre de 2023 (média de idade= 56.37 anos, DP= 6.29 anos) sendo 52% mulheres. Os resultados indicaram que 39% dos sujeitos preferem reformar-se no tempo normal, 29% optam por reforma parcial, 21% pretendem antecipar e 10% desejam adiá-la. A volição, a escolaridade e a saúde distinguem significativamente os quatro grupos de decisão de reforma. Num contexto de elevada esperança de vida dos portugueses (81.2 anos em 2023), os resultados sublinham a importância de investigar os percursos profissionais, especialmente considerando o elevado número de pessoas que deseja continuar a trabalhar para além do tempo normal. Estudos suplementares são necessários para identificar a visão dos trabalhadores em relação à perspetiva organizacional e governamental (aspetos meso e macro).
Envelhecimento e Socialização:
Authors: Cláudia Lima Monteiro  
Published: December 2024

Introdução: No Brasil, o aumento da população idosa é notável. Dados do Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE) de 2022 indicam que mais de 22 milhões de brasileiros possuem 65 anos ou mais, representando 10,9% da população. Essa mudança demográfica exige maior atenção à socialização no processo de envelhecimento. Objetivo: Este artigo objetiva apresentar a experiência de implementação de um grupo de idosos na Unidade Básica de Saúde (UBS) Eldorado, localizada no município de Diadema, no estado de São Paulo. Métodos: Em conformidade ao Plano de Governo Municipal de Diadema, no ano de 1997 foram criados Grupos de Terceira Idade nas 20 UBS da cidade, visando incentivar a socialização de munícipes idosos(as). Na UBS Eldorado o grupo foi implementado e acompanhado por equipe interdisciplinar, com periodicidade quinzenal. Resultados e discussão: A demanda inicial dos idosos por consultas médicas e palestras sobre saúde e doença foi progressivamente substituída por atividades de interação social, como caminhadas, realização de artesanato, bingos e excursões. O estímulo à autonomia dos participantes para a organização dessas atividades e o aumento de vínculo entre eles fizeram parte desse processo. Conclusão: A experiência do Grupo reforça o papel primordial da socialização para essa faixa etária. A promoção da autonomia dos idosos por meio de atividades recreativas e de fortalecimento de vínculos entre seus membros foram aspectos importantes observados pelos familiares e pela equipe técnica da UBS Eldorado. Aponta-se, portanto, a importância da abordagem integral e interdisciplinar em saúde, visando contribuir para um envelhecimento saudável.

Os idosos representam atualmente em Portugal a maior faixa da população (64 % da população em 2022 tinha mais de 65 anos) (INE,2024), assim sendo os cuidados de saúde devem ser adaptados para que consigam dar uma resposta eficaz e efetiva na promoção da saúde e no aumento da qualidade de vida da população (envelhecida).
Os dados estatísticos indicam que cada vez mais se recorreu aos serviços de urgência hospitalar em Portugal, a principal causa deste aumento são as dificuldades no acesso aos cuidados de proximidade. Estes dados revelaram ainda, que existiu um aumento da procura de meios complementares de diagnóstico e terapêutica, nos últimos anos, por necessidade de diagnósticos cada vez mais precisos para uma população envelhecida com múltiplas patologias associadas ao aumento da idade.
Na área da saúde surgiram dois conceitos de relevância, a medicina personalizada e a saúde digital que deveriam ser colocados ao alcance da maior faixa da população, os idosos. No entanto, deparam-se com barreiras institucionais e financeiras, porque obrigam a novas aprendizagens, alteração de metodologias organizacionais e elevados custos de instalação.
A literatura indica que a implementação de tecnologias de diagnóstico e terapêutica, como analises clínicas, exames imagiológicos e fisioterapia, mais próximas das populações resultaria em melhores resultados de saúde e diminuição dos custos efetivos com o tratamento de doenças em estadios mais avançados e na diminuição da dependência da população idosa, ou seja, melhor acessibilidade aos cuidados de saúde traduz-se em aumento da qualidade de vida.

Published: December 2024

Climate change is increasingly recognized as a global phenomenon with multifaceted impacts, affecting various aspects of human life including traditional medicine practices. Currently there seems to be minimal studies that have been conducted regarding the negative effects of climate change on herbal medicine in Meru County. It is against this background that this study was carried out with an aim that it may fill this gap to make a difference. The objectives of the study included to: (i) determine the negative impact of climate change on herbal medicine (ii) find out the influence of climate change on herbal profession and (iii) determine climate change mitigation measures for herbal medicine in Meru County, Kenya. The present study was carried out between April and September 2023 to investigate the effects of climate change on traditional medicine in Meru County, focusing on shifts in medicinal plant availability, efficacy, and access. A survey research design was applied using semi-structured and structured questionnaires. Mixed-methods approach was used, including surveys, field observations, and interviews. Data was collected from traditional healers, community members, and local authorities. The study showed that over 50% of the Meru county resident relies heavily on traditional medicine for healthcare delivery, making it susceptible to the impacts of climate change. Additionally, the study revealed that climate change has resulted to alterations in the availability and distribution of medicinal plants (85%), disrupting the traditional healing practices deeply rooted in the region's cultural heritage. Further, the results indicated that changing precipitation patterns, temperature fluctuations, and habitat destruction have contributed to the decline of several medicinal plant types. Moreover, Herbalists reported that they experience greater difficulties accessing the medicinal plants, often missing them out or travelling over huge destinations This loss of biodiversity has not only affected the abundance of medicinal resources but has also compromised the effectiveness of traditional remedies. The, increased frequency of extreme weather events, such as extended dry or wet weather conditions have hindered access to remote areas where medicinal plants are typically harvested, further exacerbating the challenges faced by traditional healers. Therefore, this study underscores the urgent need for climate change adaptation strategies that integrate classical knowledge systems with modern approaches to safeguard the rich cultural heritage and ensure the sustainability of healthcare practices in Meru County.
