Plural safety: image, policy and reality in Rotterdam’s Old West
In this article we want to show how different actors (amongst whom residents, professional safety-functionaries and street youth) view the safety situation in Rotterdam’s problematic neighbourhood ‘the Old West’ in very different ways and start from very different parameters. We conclude that the one-dimensional image of an unsafe neighbourhood that emerges from the city’s official, quantitative measurement instrument, the so-called ‘Safety Index’ (Veiligheidsindex), does not do justice to the diversity of opinions and visions of the different actors in the neighbourhood and is thus unsuited as the political ‘compass’ for local safety policy it was intended for. This diversity comes much better to the surface in the qualitative, ethnographic research on which this article is based. Such research enables us first to better understand safety as a local phenomenon and secondly offers more concrete points of departure for policy.

The blurring of spheres between a criminal law and an administrative approach against human trafficking in the Dutch prostitution sector
Since the legalization of the prostitution sector, not only has the combating of human trafficking through criminal law been substantially fortified, but also the administrative approach to human trafficking in that sector. This integral approach of human trafficking, in which administrative and criminal law measures complement each other, is necessary to combat this harrowing type of crime. The criminal law-administrative approach offers good footholds for a more forceful reaction to human trafficking. Besides the preventive effect administrative measures can have as a complement to criminal law, administrative supervision can also be useful to obtain criminal law information. However, that brings several new dilemmas with it that are connected to the phenomenon of the blurring of spheres. Under certain circumstances, the blurring of spheres between a criminal law and an administrative approach can lead to an improper use of competencies. We conclude that in the manner in which the prostitution sector is currently supervised, the legal protection of the citizen against actions of the supervisor is inadequately guaranteed. That does not mean that information that is obtained through administrative supervision may no longer be used in criminal cases. It is to be recommended however that several changes be made to current practice, which may prevent the improper use of supervisory competencies in prostitution controls.

Jazzy structures. A final reflection on the future of security
The author provides a discussion of the articles in this issue of the Tijdschrift voor Veiligheid (Journal on Security) on the occasion of its tenth anniversary. He notes that there is an increasing hybridising, subjectification and fragmentation in the security area. The increasing interweaving of security politics seems to apply least to a common approach in ‘social security and physical safety issues’ (crime control and disaster and crisis management), while exactly this was aimed for in so-called integral security politics. According to the author that is the case because of ‘the moral pin’, which plays a dominant role in crime, but not in safety issues. The entanglement of forms of security identified by the author has a normative basis – it comes from the social order of an increasingly complex society. For the future an ever greater responsibilisation can be expected, in which the perception of security becomes even more important than it is now already. Not a big orchestrated security policy, but jazzy structures will then determine the prospects.

Twittering community officers positively alter followers’ willingness to report and perception towards the police organization, but do not alter their perception of safety
Since November 2009, the regional police of Groningen facilitated their community officers with Twitter. According to the principles of community policing, they are enabled to shorten the distance between the police and citizens by giving them a direct connection. Such a connection should stimulate interaction, while at the same time it should make people feel more safe. In addition, Twitter also creates possibilities for the police to be transparent. Sharing of information should alter citizens’ perception towards the police.A comparison has been made, by using an online questionnaire, between followers and two kinds of non-followers. The effects of following twittering community officers have been demonstrated by using statistical analyses, taking into account relevant control variables. On the basis of these analyses it has been demonstrated that following a twittering community officer did not positively or negatively alter the perception of safety of their followers. However, an enhanced information position has made followers much more aware of local disorder and crime. Thanks to shared information about police actions to sustain and improve local safety and livability, followers’ perception of safety has not been altered negatively.Followers’ perception towards the police organization has been positively altered, thanks to the twittering community officers. Especially the sharing of information and involving citizens into local policing helps the police to alter the perception of citizens towards their organization. In addition, it has been shown that followers’ willingness to report has been improved. Thanks to the ease of use of Twitter and the shortened distance between the police and citizens, followers do frequently contact the police or a community officer to share some information, or to report some crime or disorder. However, it has been shown that Twitter should just be presented as complementary to existing ways to contact the police.

Tackling incivilities in big cities
The theme of governing anti-social behaviour and incivilities in the public space became more important on the policy and research agenda over the last twenty years. This article describes the law on incivilities in Belgium, namely the ‘administrative communal sanctions’ (GAS). This law is studied in a broader context of contemporary crime control and its organizing patterns. The development of the politics of behaviour can be explained by different characteristics of the period referred to as the late modernity. In the dissertation ‘A culture of control?’ (Devroe 2012) we studied the application and the concrete strategies behind the governance of incivilities on a national and on a city level. The incivility law broadened the competences of the Mayor and the city council especially in the completion of anti social behaviour and public disorder problems in his/her municipality. Instead of being dealt with on a traditional judicial way by the police magistrate, the Mayor can, by this law; himself lay on fines until maximum 250 euro. We mention ‘city republics’ as this punitive sanction became a locally assigned matter, which means that one municipality differs from another in their ‘incivility policy’. Due to the split up of competences of the Belgian state arrangements of 1988, each municipality finds itself framed in different political and organisational executive realities. In this view, Mayors can be called ‘presidents’ of their own municipality, keeping and controlling the process of tackling incivilities as their main responsibility and determining what behaviour had to be controlled and punished and what behaviour can be considered as normal decent behaviour in the public space. Problems of creating a ‘culture of control’, creating inequality for the poor, the beggars and the socially ‘unwanted’ can arise, especially in big cities.

Geometria nas aulas de matemática no ensino médio das escolas indígenas de palmeira dos índios
Authors: Silva Beatriz Machado da , Souza Elvis Gomes 
Published: February 2025

O presente trabalho é resultado de um estudo de caso, que tem como objetivo geral compreender como o ensino da geometria é contextualizado no Ensino Médio de uma escola indígena de Palmeira dos Índios, Alagoas. Assim, esse trabalho se caracteriza como exploratório, desenvolvendo-se a partir do seguinte problema: de que forma a geometria é contextualizada em uma escola indígena de Palmeira dos Índios? Para tanto, buscamos aporte teórico nos estudos de Masola; Vieira; Allevato (2016), os quais defendem que os conhecimentos específicos de uma determinada área deve ser transpostos para o campo pedagógico, ou seja, (re)contextualizados; recorremos a Mendes (2013), por considerar relevante seus estudos sobre níveis de contextualização do ensino da matemática e Proença (2021) por defender o uso do jogo como estratégia de desenvolvimento de modelos matemáticos. Contudo, os resultados desta pesquisa demonstram que o ensino da geometria tende a apresentar uma organização didática clássica tradicional, marcada pela dificuldade de trabalhar em uma perspectiva intercultural. Embora os povos indígenas façam pinturas geométricas em seus corpos e no artesanato, não raro, desconsidera-se a possibilidade de trabalhar o conhecimento geométrico contextualizado a partir da arte produzida em sua comunidade, prevalecendo como referência pedagógica a cultura eurocêntrica.

O prolapso vaginal é a exteriorização do órgão pela vulva, onde a mucosa exposta poderá sofrer traumatismo, ressecamento, laceração e necrose. Sendo uma das principais afecções que ocorrem no período pós parto de ruminantes. As etiologias envolvidas nesta afecção são diversas, como o relaxamento do sistema de fixação da vagina, aumento da pressão intra-abdominal, defeitos anatômicos, distúrbios hormonais, obesidade, inflamação na região vulvar e predisposição hereditária. Por se tratar de uma doença de caráter hereditário, o ideal é evitar novamente a reprodução deste animal. Quanto ao tratamento, é cirúrgico e o prognóstico depende da gravidade da afecção e do tempo transcorrido desde o seu início. O objetivo deste estudo é descrever um caso de prolapso vaginal ocorrido em uma vaca zebuína, durante acompanhamento de estágio extracurricular em uma cidade do noroeste do estado do Rio Grande do Sul.

Published: February 2025

Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to significantly transform medicine and enhance the experiences of patients and physicians alike. The distance between research and deployment has been shortened by promising studies and developments in medical image processing. Eventually, authors discuss significant ethical and technological difficulties ranging from racial bias to data shortage. AI may reach its full potential as these issues are resolved, making healthcare more accessible, effective, and precise for patients everywhere. However, among the excitement, there is equal scepticism, with some urging caution at inflated expectations. Conclusively, this overview provides new insights into establishing a strong platform to explore certain new facets in the area of healthcare and medicine. The rapid progression of AI technology presents an opportunity for its application in clinical practice, potentially revolutionizing healthcare services, though there are still concerns over research gaps and potential areas for further study in view of the regulation of AI in medicine and pivotal roles across the healthcare system, equally impacting patients, doctors, and researchers.
Examining the Prediction of Vapor-Liquid Equilibria through Comparative Analysis: Deep Learning versus Classical Cubic and Associating Fluid Theory Approaches
Authors: Khan Muhammad Naveed , Warrier Pramod , Zaman Babar , Peters Cornelius 
Published: February 2025

Accurate vapor-liquid equilibria (VLE) calculations of carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide mixtures are critical to gas processing and the affordable, safe design of flow assurance technologies. Inaccurate VLE predictions can lead to inaccurate gas hydrate phase equilibria predictions and ensuing safety and economic risks. This research paper explores the potential incorporation of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) to support conventional expert systems within the context of predicting VLE. It facilitates more flexible and data-driven approaches that are required due to the growing intricacy and dynamic character of chemical processes. Moreover, various cubic and non-cubic equation of state (EoS) models (such as SRK, PR, CPA, SAFT, and PC-SAFT) were also examined to compare predicted VLE for various mixtures of CO2 and H2S. Prior to the comparison of DNN-predicted VLE with EOS models, binary interaction parameters were optimized for all EOS with the available experimental phase equilibria measurements. Model accuracies were compared and analyzed for various binary systems containing CO2/H2S + other associative and non-associative components. The absolute average deviation in vapor and liquid phase composition/bubble pressure was calculated and compared for all five-state EOS with DNN predictions. The DNN and equation of states with BIP gave a reliable illustration of the phase behavior of CO2/H2S-containing systems compared to others as indicated by the lower AADP values. By contrasting the applied DNN model with conventional techniques, we explore the promising channel for future research directions and industry applications, as well as an opportunity for innovation and field advancement for modern expert systems.

Published: February 2025

The methods and trends to teach students the English language is changing widely over time. Technology-based programs and computer-assisted software are taking place rapidly. These programs help both teachers and learners. The use of ‘Blogs’ or ‘Weblog’ and ‘Vlog’ for language teaching facilitates language learning. The present paper aims to analyze the rationale for using Vlogs and Blogs for ELT practitioners. It further investigates the merits and demerits of its usage because technology has become an integral part of teaching. For this purpose, an open-ended questionnaire was disseminated to 20 ESL teachers. A qualitative study found that vlogs improve students’ listening, pronunciation, and conversation skills, while blogs allow users to read and write materials. Instructors use it to read up-to-date material and motivate their students to learn easily and effectively. Findings prove that most participants use technology in different teaching activities and situations. These are more positive and a few negative impacts on teaching and learning the English language. The study is significant because modern classrooms have different requirements than traditional classrooms, and students prefer technology on notes and tough reading materials.

Published: February 2025

Background: The mental and physical impacts of adverse childhood experiences persist into adulthood, highlighting their long-term consequences. These physical effects are attributed to psychobiological processes, including anxiety, depression, stress, anger, sleep disorders , which influence inflammatory pathways. In the present study, it was aimed to compare the adverse childhood experiences of essential hypertension (HT) patients with healthy controls.
Methods: The sample of the current study consists of 200 participants, including 100 HT patients who applied to cardiology outpatient clinics and 100 healthy controls. HT was defined in accordance with the European Society Of Cardiology guideline. The sociodemographic data form and Adverse Childhood Experiences Questionnaire were applied to the participants who volunteered to participate in the study after obtaining their consent.
Results: The mean age of the participants included in the study was 51.55±8.90 years and 78.5% were women. There was no statistically significant difference in age, gender, marital status, income level, height and weight variables between the healthy control group and HT patients (p>0.05). Body Mass Index (t=-2.558, df=198, p=0.011) and ACE-Q (t=-2.609, df=198, 0.010) scores of HT group were found to be statistically significantly higher than healthy controls.
Conclusion: The present study shows that patients with HT are exposed to more adverse childhood experiences compared to healthy volunteers. This result supports studies showing that psychosocial factors may have an effect on the pathogenesis of HT.

Teachers are figures who occupy a position and play an important role in education. Therefore, the teacher's performance in teaching is one of the important things in transferring knowledge. One performance that needs to be considered for a teacher is facial makeup. The best impression can be seen from the appearance of a teacher. Because the appearance will be seen first by all students. A good appearance can be interpreted by looking neat, clean, and attractive in terms of clothing, hair makeup and most importantly facial makeup. The purpose of the socialization of corrective makeup techniques is so that teachers can know corrective makeup techniques to provide skills, enthusiasm and motivation for teachers to be more creative in applying makeup in beautifying their appearance, especially when they teach. This teacher service activity teaches teachers how to apply their own makeup that is tailored to the occasion they are doing. This activity was carried out by delivering material using lecture and demonstration methods so that participants could see firsthand the technique of applying cosmetics to corrective makeup. After that, the participants held a discussion session with the resource person and continued the evaluation of the activity by asking several questions to the students. The enthusiasm of the trainees can be seen from the many questions asked about good cosmetics used for corrective makeup.
