OBJECTIVES:
In this report, we compare weight loss, comorbidity resolution, nutritional abnormalities, and quality of life between younger and older adolescents after metabolic and bariatric surgery.

METHODS:
From March 2007 to December 2011, 242 adolescents (≤19 years of age) who underwent bariatric surgery at 5 clinical centers in the United States were enrolled in the prospective, multicenter, long-term outcome study Teen–Longitudinal Assessment of Bariatric Surgery. Outcome data from younger (13–15 years; n = 66) and older (16–19 years; n = 162) study participants were compared. Outcomes included percent BMI change, comorbidity outcomes (hypertension, dyslipidemia, and type 2 diabetes mellitus), nutritional abnormalities, and quality of life over 5 years post surgery.

RESULTS:
Baseline characteristics, except for age, between the 2 cohorts were similar. No significant differences in frequency of remission of hypertension (P = .84) or dyslipidemia (P = .74) were observed between age groups. Remission of type 2 diabetes mellitus was high in both groups, although statistically higher in older adolescents (relative risk 0.86; P = .046). Weight loss and quality of life were similar in the 2 age groups. Younger adolescents were less likely to develop elevated transferrin (prevalence ratio 0.52; P = .048) and low vitamin D levels (prevalence ratio 0.8; P = .034).

CONCLUSIONS:
The differences in outcome of metabolic and bariatric surgery between younger and older adolescents were few. These data suggest that younger adolescents with severe obesity should not be denied consideration for surgical therapy on the basis of age alone and that providers should consider adolescents of all ages for surgical therapy for obesity when clinically indicated.

Published: February 2021

Objective: The aim was to determine the prevalence and types of the allergies present among dental professionals in Costa Rica. Materials and Methods: We performed a cross-sectional study on 664 dentists who completed a self-reported questionnaire. A descriptive cross-sectional study with inferential analysis was carried out. Results: Dentists reported allergies prior to studying dentistry in 39% of cases, 36% reported chronic illnesses, and 61% of the dentists reported first-degree relatives with some type of allergic reaction. Different allergies had a similar prevalence among the dental professionals (ranging between 19%-26%), all allergic manifestations occurred within the first 120 minutes after exposure. The average time of exposure to dentistry-related environments was 16 years (95% CI) among all the dentists surveyed. Conclusions: There is a positive correlation between the presence of a chronic illness and the predisposition to develop allergic reactions among dentists. In addition, there is a directly proportional relationship between age, time of exposure to dental environments, and the risk of developing allergic conditions to dental materials. The main adverse reactions reported due to exposure to dental materials, medicines and/or food were gastrointestinal, skin, and respiratory problems.

Published: February 2021

Neste artigo abordaremos alguns aspectos referentes ao mito e ao seu desenvolvimento em Sobrevivendo no inferno, dos Racionais Mc’s. Primeiramente, procuraremos discernir a trajetória do mito no rap brasileiro a partir de três blocos históricos: (1) até os anos 1989, (2) 1990-1999 e (3) de 2000 em diante. A partir da concepção do rap enquanto literatura oral urbana, tentaremos esclarecer a relação entre do mito e da experiência religiosa com a obra em questão. Em seguida, buscaremos descrever como se dá a construção de uma cosmogonia periférica através da faixa “Gênesis”, e apresentaremos uma proposta de leitura metafórica do mito em alguns trechos da faixa “Capítulo 4 versículo 3”, a fim de encontrar um caminho de acesso ao conteúdo poético do texto.

Significance Statement
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has caused a pandemic for which currently there are limited preventative and therapeutic approaches. The use of soluble ACE2 protein has been recently proposed as a way to intercept the SARS-CoV-2 S spike from binding to the full-length membrane-bound ACE2 receptor. We have developed a newly bioengineered soluble ACE2 protein of shorter molecular size and modified by fusing it with an albumin binding domain (ABD) tag to extend its duration of action. Here, we demonstrate in studies conducted in a BSL-3 facility that human kidney organoids can be infected by SARS-CoV-2 as they possess the human full-length ACE2 receptor and transmembrane serine protease 2, which are needed for infectivity. Using this model, we demonstrate that our novel soluble ACE2 variant can inhibit SARS-CoV-2 infection, suggesting its potential preventative and therapeutic use.

Background
There is an urgent need for approaches to prevent and treat SARS-CoV-2 infection. Administration of soluble ACE2 protein acting as a decoy to bind to SARS-CoV-2 should limit viral uptake mediated by binding to membrane-bound full-length ACE2, and further therapeutic benefit should result from ensuring enzymatic ACE2 activity to affected organs in patients with COVID-19.

Methods
A short variant of human soluble ACE2 protein consisting of 618 amino acids (hACE2 1–618) was generated and fused with an albumin binding domain (ABD) using an artificial gene encoding ABDCon, with improved albumin binding affinity. Human kidney organoids were used for infectivity studies of SARS-CoV-2 in a BSL-3 facility to examine the neutralizing effect of these novel ACE2 variants.

Results
Whereas plasma ACE2 activity of the naked ACE2 1–618 and ACE2 1–740 lasted about 8 hours, the ACE2 1–618-ABD resulted in substantial activity at 96 hours, and it was still biologically active 3 days after injection. Human kidney organoids express ACE2 and TMPRSS2, and when infected with SARS-CoV-2, our modified long-acting ACE2 variant neutralized infection.

Conclusions
This novel ACE2 1–618-ABD can neutralize SARS-CoV-2 infectivity in human kidney organoids, and its prolonged duration of action should ensure improved efficacy to prevent viral escape and dosing convenience.
Die uitbou van ’n eens marginale tradisie: Marlise Joubert se gebruik van vroulike taal
Authors: Lourens Amanda 
Published: February 2021

It has already been shown that female poets play an important role in the Afrikaans literary system, after the domination by a male tradition had relegated the female system to a marginal position. Female poets came to the fore since the 1970s and took up a stronger and more central position within the system. This article strives to investigate the further consolidation of this female Afrikaans tradition, especially with reference to the volume Passies en passasies (“Passions and Passages”, 2007) by Marlise Joubert. In particular, this article wants to investigate whether specific aspects of Joubert’s work, apart from the exploitation of female topics, are responsible for the appeal by critics for a stronger position for Joubert within the literary system. The following hypothesis forms the basis for the investigation: Joubert employs an authenticfemale language in her poetry, and this leads to the consolidation of the Afrikaans female tradition.

It was aimed in this study to evaluate the ensiled pejibaye residue in the feeding of ruminants as roughage. For the in vitro digestibility assay, a randomized block design was used, with four treatments (pejibaye residue without additives; pejibaye residue + banana residue; pejibaye residue + rice residue and pejibaye residue + citrus pulp), with four replications. The variables studied were: chemical composition, specific mass, pH, average particle size, fermentation temperature and fermentative losses. Apparent digestibility was performed with sheep in a completely randomized design, to evaluate the same treatments mentioned above, using five replications. Heart-of-palm pejibaye residue silages showed average particle size, pH and density values within the range appropriate for their manufacture. Among the additives used in this study, silage with 15 g/100g of rice provided improvements in several nutritional parameters, such as DM, NDF, ADF, CF and NDF/NFC. High moisture content impairs the ensiling process, but it was solved with high dry matter content ingredients addition to promote the material stability.
La vulnerabilidad externa de la economía colombiana en el periodo 1990-2015: un análisis comparativo
Authors: Portillo-Riascos Luis Hernando , Ortiz-Benavides Edinson 
Published: February 2021

El objetivo de este estudio es cuantificar la vulnerabilidad externa de la economía colombiana para el lapso 1990-2015. Para alcanzar este propósito, se calcularon dos indicadores, tomando como referencia la propuesta de Abeles y Valdecantos (2016). A partir de los resultados encontrados, se evidenció que, durante el transcurso del periodo estudiado, la economía colombiana, durante el transcurso del periodo estudiado, incrementó tanto su vulnerabilidad real como la financiera. Frente a este hallazgo, se argumentó que la mayor vulnerabilidad externa de este país se explica por dos razones: a) la incapacidad de esta economía para modificar su modelo de inserción comercial basado en la explotación de los recursos naturales y b) el incremento de la dependencia del financiamiento externo.

Aim To determine the type and incidence of ictal bradyarrhythmias in patients with drug-resistant types of epilepsy by long-term electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring.Material and methods Subcutaneous ECG monitors programed for recording pauses >3 sec and episodes of bradycardia ≤45 bpm were implanted in 193 patients with persistent epileptic seizures without organic pathology of the myocardium. Recording was activated by the patient/family at the onset of epileptic seizure. The follow-up period was 36 months with visits to the clinic every three months.Results For 36 months of monitoring, 6494 ECG fragments were recorded. Ictal bradycardia was observed in 6.7 % of patients, including ictal asystole in 2.6 % of patients. Episodes of bradycardia and asystole during epileptic seizures were transient and developed significantly more frequently in men, patients with long duration of the disease, bilateral tonic-clonic or focal seizures with disorder of consciousness, during sleep, on the background of treatment with several antiepileptic agents, mostly from the group of potassium channel blockers.Conclusion Bradyarrhythmias accompanying epileptic seizures are transient and reproducible from seizure to seizure. They reflect functional changes in the myocardium and do not determine the life prediction for patients with epilepsy without organic pathology of the heart.
The Phenomenon of Dividend Announcement on Stock Abnormal Return (Case in ASEAN Countries)
Authors: Hariyanto Ikka Tiaraintan , Murhadi Werner Ria 
Published: February 2021

Research aims: to examine the existence of stock’s abnormal return after dividend announcement activity.Design/methodology/approach: event study with 1.330 samples of dividend announcement in ASEAN countries during 2018. The research period was 21 days around the dividend announcement’s date.Research findings: this analysis's results agreed with the dividend signaling theory hypotheses, where the increase, decrease, or constant dividends could be an informative aspect for investors. Theoritical contribution/originality: it was shown by the presence of a positive abnormal return between an increase and a constant dividend, while a negative abnormal return between decrease dividends.Practitioner/policy implication: in the ASEAN capital market, it could be concluded that the change of dividend nominal would signal the firm’s prospect.Research limitation/implication: this research used the earliest dividend announcement before revision. Suggestions for further research are to pay attention to announcements of changes in dividend distribution dates and nominal revision, whether they contain information for investors, which will affect stock price movements.
Spanish PIBID: a space that brings school and future teachers together
Authors: Bergmann Juliana Cristina Faggion , Cesco Andréa 
Published: February 2021

This paper proposes a reflection on the Spanish Teaching Initiation Institutional Scholarship Program [Spanish PIBID] at the Federal University of Santa Catarina as a space that brings together schools and future teachers, in schools of the Florianópolis Metropolitan Region, showing actions and challenges faced for the consolidation of the program in the region. Based on a research done with the participants of the Spanish subproject—2012-2020—the project was analyzed from the perspective of PIBID teacher trainees, according to the topics highlighted by them, such as the relation between theory and practice, their presence in school, or the relation between the university and basic school. Based on official data on filled and unfilled school capacity, current challenges faced by teaching programs in universities were also taken into account, especially in the case of Spanish as a foreign language program, considering the need to keep teaching-fostering public policies in place. As a formative experience, the subproject is perceived as rewarding, having as a theoretical basis the training of reflective teachers and researchers, concerned with collaborating to maintaining high quality standards for public school as an institution that educates critical and autonomous citizens.
Educational process and socio-environmental conflicts: construction of possible meanings and senses

Published: February 2021

Neste artigo, sistematizamos parte dos resultados da tese do primeiro autor, que teve como objetivo construir possíveis significados e sentidos sobre a relação entre processo educativo e conflitos socioambientais, a partir da análise dos textos de teses e dissertações em educação ambiental [EA] concluídas no Brasil. Trata-se de uma pesquisa documental inserida em um projeto mais amplo sobre o estado da arte da pesquisa em EA no Brasil — Projeto EArte. Os trabalhos analisados foram selecionados no Banco de Teses E Dissertações disponível no site desse projeto —www.earte.net. As análises foram orientadas pelos referenciais teórico-metodológicos associados à perspectiva histórico cultural e à perspectiva bakhtiniana. Os dados apresentados neste artigo referem-se às análises das teses e dissertações que exploraram processos educativos envolvendo conflitos socioambientais, associados à ideia de “participação” e “participação e cidadania”. As análises nos permitiram considerar que a promoção da participação e o exercício da cidadania tem sido entendidos como tarefas desafiadoras para os educadores ambientais. Neste contexto, os conflitos socioambientais passam a ser considerados como princípio orientador de propostas e práticas em EA na perspectiva crítica, pautadas no diálogo entre saberes, potencialmente capazes de promover a superação da “semiformação” dos sujeitos.
Evaluación y control. La formación del profesor de Educación Física en la burocracia moderna. El proceso de clasificación y estratificación del Estado = Evaluation and control. Physical Education in the process of classification and stratification of the modern bureaucracy
Authors: Hours Germán 
Published: February 2021

La evaluación tiene un papel definitorio en la formación profesional de cualquier carrera y la Educación Física no es la excepción. El valor que se le otorga en los trayectos formativos debe ser sometido a análisis verdaderamente críticos, que consideren sus estatutos fundamentales sostenidos bajo esa impronta que ha legitimado incontables mecanismos de gobierno, que han limitado categóricamente los márgenes de manifestación de la sociedad en su totalidad. Desde esta perspectiva, se han establecido incontables y diversos procesos de cuantificación, bajo el nombre de evaluación, operando en nombre del tan proclamado progreso, pero que no han hecho más que reforzar permanentemente el poder coercitivo de las tecnologías gubernamentales en las democracias occidentales, pero, como se podrá observar en el siguiente texto, definidas hacia el desarrollo de las libertades más avanzadas, instituyendo el condicionamiento de ser siempre, y casi exclusivamente, posibles de ser resueltas por el propio accionar del ser humano. AbstractThe evaluation has a defining role in the professional training of any career, and Physical Education is no exception. The value that is given to it in the formative paths must be subjected to truly criticalanalyzes, which consider its fundamental statutes, under that imprint that has legitimized countless mechanisms of government, which have categorically limited the margins of manifestation of society asa whole. From this perspective, countless and diverse quantification processes have been established, under the name of evaluation, operating in the name of such proclaimed progress, but that have onlypermanently reinforced the coercive power of government technologies in Western democracies, but, as can be seen in the following text, defined towards the development of the most advanced freedoms,instituting the conditioning of being always, and almost exclusively, possible to be resolved by the human being's own actions.

Published: February 2021

A cultura da mandioca apresenta alta relevância socioeconômica para o Brasil. Entretanto, na região Oeste do Pará, a disseminação de pragas e doenças, entre outros fatores, tem limitado a produção de raízes. Desta forma, a micropropagação torna-se uma alternativa aos métodos tradicionais de cultivo para a obtenção de material com qualidade fitossanitária. Objetivou-se neste estudovaliar o efeito de diferentes concentrações de ácido naftalenoacético (ANA) no estabelecimento in vitro de ápices caulinares de mandioca da variedade Água Morna. Os ápices caulinares foram introduzidos em meio MS, suplementado com 0,04 mg L‑1 de 6-benzilaminopurina, 0,05 mg L‑1 de ácido giberélico e diferentes concentrações de ANA (0,00 mg L-1; 0,01 mg L-1; 0,02 mg L‑1 e 0,03 mg L-1). O delineamento experimental foi inteiramente casualizado, com cinco tratamentos, contendo cinco repetições de cinco tubos cada. Ao longo de 30 dias, avaliou-se a altura das plântulas, número de folhas verdes e mortas, números de raízes e o comprimento da maior raiz. As plântulas apresentaram valores médios de 1,51 cm de altura, 1,51 folhas verdes, 1,67 raízes e 1,31 cm de comprimento da maior raiz. O tratamento controle proporcionou o menor número de folhas mortas, cuja média foi de 0,52 folhas. Não houve diferenças significativas entre as concentrações de ANA para as demais variáveis analisadas, exceto para número de folhas mortas. Portanto, o estabelecimento in vitro da mandioca variedade Água Morna foi eficiente em todos os tratamentos, podendo o meio de cultura isento de reguladores de crescimento ser empregado.
