POLÍTICAS PÚBLICAS DE SAÚDE PARA PESSOAS IDOSAS: TRAMAS BIOPOLÍTICAS ENTRE GÊNERO E ENVELHECIMENTO
Authors: Silva Daniel Vieira , Pocahy Fernando Altair 
Published: November 2021

O presente artigo analisa como os marcadores de gênero e sexualidade encontram-se (des)articulados às políticas públicas voltadas para a população idosa. Buscou-se compreender como esses marcadores operam, em presença ou ausência estratégica, na (in)definição do sujeito (im)possível para o governo geracional. Para atingir nossos objetivos, estabelecemos uma descrição analítica de dois dos principais documentos que inauguram as políticas públicas para idosos no processo da abertura democrática. Os princípios ético-epistemológicos e metodológicos desta operação privilegiaram problematização discursivo-desconstrucionista, a fim de compreendermos os modos como nos constituímos em sujeitos de uma determinada população, no caso, idosa. Esse movimento nos permitiu acionar algumas análises sobre produções discursivas na (in)definição e governo do envelhecimento, destacando que a sua (in)eficácia depende de maior ou menor investidura na (des)articulação com outros marcadores da diferença.

The objective of this study was to carry out a comparative analysis between handgrip strength and mobility in the quality of life (QOL) of older adults living in long-term care facilities. Methods: This was a cross sectional study conducted in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, comprised of a sample population of 127 older adults. Measurements included the World Health Organization Quality of Life-OLD (WHOQOL-BREF) questionnaire, assessment of the handgrip strength by hand dynamometer and mobility by Timed Up and Go (TUG). An analysis of variance (ANOVA) was performed to compare the mean values of the WHOQOL-BREF, global and domains, in each stratum of the handgrip strength and mobility values. Our results showed that handgrip dynamometer strength was associated with higher perception of the global WHOQOL-BREF score and two WHOQOL-BREF domains environment (p<0.028) and physical health (p<0.002), that is, the highest QOL values were seen in those older adults with greater handgrip strength. However, no significant association between TUG score and any quality of life domains was found. It can be inferred that handgrip strength seems to influence the quality of life of institutionalized older adults and healthcare providers in LTCs should account for when designing interventions.

O objetivo deste estudo foi comparar o comportamento sedentário de nonagenários e centenários com e sem patologia, que faziam e não faziam uso de tabaco e ativos e inativos fisicamente. Caracterizou-se como um estudo quantitativo, descritivo e transversal com 41 idosos nonagenários e centenários. Foi utilizado um questionário sobre as características sociodemográficas e a versão curta do Questionário Internacional de Atividade Física – IPAQ para avaliação do comportamento sedentário e do nível de atividade física.Para análise dos dados,foi utilizado o Teste t de Student independente, considerando significativo p≤0,05. Os resultados apontam que 65,9% dos idosos permaneciam menos de 4 horas sentados e 83% não atingiram 150 minutos de atividade física durante a semana. O maior comportamento sedentário esteve associado com a presença de patologias, uso de tabaco e inatividade física. Estratégias precisam ser pensadas e elaboradas a fim de reduzir o comportamento sedentário e proporcionar um envelhecimento bem-sucedido.

Authors: Akter Nurunnahar , Kulinskaya Elena , Steel Nicholas , Bakbergenuly Ilyas 
Published: November 2021

Objective: To estimate the effect of oestrogen-only and
combined hormone replacement therapy (HRT) on the hazards of overall and
age-specific all-cause mortality in healthy women aged 46 to 65 at first
prescription.
Design: Matched cohort study.
Setting: Electronic primary care records from The Health
Improvement Network (THIN) database, UK (1984−2017).
Population: 105,199 HRT users (cases) and 224,643 non-users
(controls) matched on age and general practice.
Methods: Weibull-Double-Cox regression models adjusted for age
at first treatment, birth cohort, type 2 diabetes, hypertension and
hypertension treatment, coronary heart disease,
oophorectomy/hysterectomy, body mass index, smoking, and deprivation
status.
Main outcome measures: All-cause mortality.
Results: A total of 21,751 women died over an average of 13.5
years follow-up per participant, of whom 6,329 were users and 15,422
non-users. The adjusted hazard ratio (HR) of overall all-cause mortality
in combined HRT users was 0.91 (95%CI 0.88−0.94), and in oestrogen-only
users was 0.99 (0.93−1.07), compared to non-users. Age-specific adjusted
HRs for participants aged 46-50, 51-55, 56-60, and 61-65 years at first
treatment were 0.98 (0.92−1.04), 0.87 (0.82−0.92), 0.88 (0.82−0.93), and
0.92 (0.85−0.98), for combined HRT users compared to non-users, and 1.01
(0.84−1.21), 1.03 (0.89−1.18), 0.98 (0.86−1.12), and 0.93 (0.81−1.07)
for oestrogen-only users, respectively.
Conclusions: Combined HRT was associated with a 9% lower risk
of all-cause mortality and oestrogen-only formulation was not associated
with any significant changes.
Funding: IFoA.
Keywords: Hormone replacement therapy, menopause, mortality,
primary care records, THIN.
Tweetable abstract: Oestrogen-only HRT is not associated with
all-cause mortality and combined HRT reduces the risks.

Published: November 2021

W Polsce wierzba na cele energetyczne uprawiana jest od niedawna i podczas sadzenia popełniane są błędy, które mają wpływ na efekt ekonomiczny przedsięwzięcia. W roku założenia plantacji wierzby największe nakłady finansowe stanowią sadzonki pędowe (sztobry) i sadzenie. W opracowaniu przedstawiono rozwój długich sadzonek wierzby (żywokołów), dosadzanych po wypadniętych roślinach wierzby, na użytkowanej 10-letniej plantacji. W badaniach dokonano oceny sadzonek o długości 100, 150 i 200 cm, które zostały pobrane bezpośrednio przed sadzeniem. Po posadzeniu oraz w drugim roku doświadczenia, w odstępach co 3 tygodnie, określano liczbę rozwijających się i rosnących pędów. Długość sadzonki istotnie wpływała na liczbę rozwijających się pędów (w pierwszym sezonie wegetacji), jak również na ich zamieranie. W drugim roku wegetacji wpływ długości sadzonki na liczbę rozwijających się pędów I rzędu zaznaczył się dopiero pod koniec wegetacji. Długość sadzonki miała istotny wpływ na długość roślin i najdłuższego rozwijającego się pędu.

Published: November 2021

Abstract
The TTM (Total Traceability Management) is becoming a mandatory process requested by all OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturing) as a system to be deployed by the relevant suppliers. Process parameters from the machines are gathered by the TTM software and based on a defined algorithm the product is receiving new statuses, as physical and software characteristics. Given the high complexity of the current process flows, the highly automated lines and cells, the increased amount of process parameters, the necessity of synchronizing various production steps, it is needed that a simulation process to be done in advance of the full process deployment. The paper work reviews both the mathematical apparatus that underlies the simulation, and one of the various available simulation programs in academia. It is used one of the most usual software for simulation SIMQuick which is based on statistical methodologies. SIMQuick performs a virtual simulation of the process being used in various areas of activity including production in automotive, automation, supply chain processes and services, providing the valuable data for the behavior of the process and providing the premises for layout, flows, and resources improvements. The supply chain software ERP requirements with TTM technical inputs and outputs are the data pillars for the simulation which are presented as a result of the research.

Published: November 2021

Abstract

Markhamia tomentosa crude extract and fractions exhibited potent growth inhibitory effects capable to induce apoptosis in cervical (HeLa) cancer cell line via in vitro model. Presently, interaction of M. tomentosa phytoconstituents with molecular drug targets to exert its anticancer property is evaluated via in silico study. Identified phytoconstituents from M. tomentosa were retrieved from PubChem database and docked in active sites of HPV 16 E6, caspase -3 and caspase -8 targets using AutoDockVina from PyRx software. Screening for druglikeness; and absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity (ADMET) predictions was carried out with the use of SwissADME and pkCSM web servers. Standard melphalan and co-crystallized ligands of caspases -3 and -8 enzymes were used to validate protein-ligand interactions. Molecular dynamic simulation was used to validate the stability of the hit molecules complexed with caspases -3 and -8. All identified phytoconstituents from M. tomentosa showed binding affinity for HPV with docking scores range of - 5.4 to -2.6 kcal/mol. Ajugol, carnosol, luteolin and phytol showed good docking energy range of -6.8 to -3.6 kcal/mol; and -4.8 to -1.9 kcal/mol for the active sites of caspases -3 and -8 targets respectively. Based on docking scores; drug-likeliness; and ADMET predictions; luteolin and carnosol were selected as hit compounds. These molecules were found to be stable within the binding site of caspase -3 target throughout the 40ns simulation time. These findings identified hit ligands from M. tomentosa phytoconstituents that inhibit HPV 16 E6 oncogene expression with stimulation of caspases -3 and -8 targets.
Neighbourhood Policy vs. Remembrance Policy: Romania and Hungary
Authors: Bodó Barna 
Published: November 2021

Abstract
In East-Central Europe, the past has always been a determining factor as a framework for interpretation: the social construction of the past often serves (served) current political purposes. It is no wonder that in the countries of the region, often different, sometimes contradictory interpretations of the past have emerged. In today’s European situation, however, the countries of Central and Eastern Europe are perhaps most keenly faced by the transformation of Europe, with unclear, chaotic ideas dominating political and intellectual markets instead of previous (accepted) values – in the tension between old and new, Europe’s future is at stake. The question is: what role the states of Central and Eastern Europe play/can play, to what extent they will be able to place the neighbourhood policy alongside (perhaps in front of) the policy of remembrance and seek common answers to Europe’s great dilemmas.
The Role of Experimenting with the Human Voice in Film Music in the Representation of the Human/Alien Divide: the Case of Arrival (2016)
Authors: Medina Nicolás , Kiss Miklós 
Published: November 2021

Abstract
This article focuses on the musical dimension of experimentation in the creative space of science fiction film, concerning its uncanny, new and fantastic places, and otherworldly encounters within fictional, but possible worlds. The aim is to consider the function and potential of the audible – to examine how sound is used in the filmic exploration of the boundaries between the human and the alien (the unknown). More particularly, we are interested in the role that human voice-like and human vocal sounds can play in this divide, as we believe manipulations with such audible qualities contribute greatly to the emotional dimension of cinematic stories of otherworldly encounters. For that purpose, we concentrate on Denis Villeneuve’s Arrival (2016) and its soundtrack composed by Jóhann Jóhannsson, who resorts to different singing practices and vocal techniques to accompany a story charting the territories between the human and the alien.
Body, Telephone, Voice: Black Christmas (1974) and Monstrous Cinema
Authors: Thomsen Morten Feldtfos 
Published: November 2021

Abstract
This article investigates the role of the telephone as both an engine of suspense and a metaphorical double of cinema in Black Christmas directed by Bob Clark (1974). Employing Michel Chion’s concept of acousmatic voice, the article first explores the role of the telephone in creating both narrative suspense and diegetic cohesion. It then investigates how the film implicitly establishes a pattern of resemblance between the telephonic and cinematic mediums centred on their capacities for diffusion and disembodiment. Finally, the article explores the meta-cinematic implications of its preceding findings, arguing that the fears and anxieties associated with the telephone in Black Christmas ultimately concern cinema itself and its possible cultural impact. Although it attempts to enforce certain categories of knowledge and identity, Black Christmas ultimately engages with cinema’s capacity for subverting rather than enforcing ideology.
The Soundtrack of the Sinister Trailer
Authors: Redfern Nick 
Published: November 2021

Abstract
In this article, I analyse the soundtrack of the green band trailer for Sinister (Scott Derrickson, 2012), combining quantitative methods to analyse the soundtrack with formal analysis. I show that, even though Sinister is a narrative about a demon who lives in images, the horror in the soundtrack of this trailer is articulated through the sound design. I describe the structure of the soundtrack and analyse the distribution and organisation of dialogue, the use of different types of sound effects to create a connection between the viewer and the characters onscreen, as well as the use of specific localised sound events to organise attention and to frighten the viewer. I identify two features not previously discussed in relation to quantitative analysis of film soundtracks: an affective event based on reactions to a stimulus and the presence of nonlinear features in the sound envelopes of localised affective events. The sound design of this trailer is consistent with the principles of contemporary sound design in horror cinema, but also demonstrates some variation in its use of sound as a paratext to its parent film.
Circular Causality of Emotions in Moving Pictures
Authors: Deaca Mircea Valeriu 
Published: November 2021

Abstract
In the framework of predictive coding, as explained by Giovanni Pezzulo in his article Why do you fear the bogeyman? An embodied predictive coding model of perceptual inference (2014), humans construct instances of emotions by a double arrow of explanation of stimuli. Top-down cognitive models explain in a predictive fashion the emotional value of stimuli. At the same time, feelings and emotions depend on the perception of internal changes in the body. When confronted with uncertain auditory and visual information, a multimodal internal state assigns more weight to interoceptive information (rather than auditory and visual information) like visceral and autonomic states as hunger or thirst (motivational conditions). In short, an emotional mood can constrain the construction of a particular instance of emotion. This observation suggests that the dynamics of generative processes of Bayesian inference contain a mechanism of bidirectional link between perceptual and cognitive inference and feelings and emotions. In other words, “subjective feeling states and emotions influence perceptual and cognitive inference, which in turn produce new subjective feeling states and emotions” as a self-fulfilling prophecy (Pezzulo 2014, 908). This article focuses on the short introductory scene from Steven Spielberg’s Jaws (1975), claiming that the construction / emergence of the fear and sadness emotions are created out of the circular causal coupling instantiated between cinematic bottom-up mood cues and top-down cognitive explanations.

Published: November 2021

Abstract
Stabilization with cement is the most commonly used technique for the improvement of soil physical, mechanical, and engineering properties. This research reported on the properties of the rejuvenation for recycled soil cement with incorporation of fly ash (FA). The study showed that the specific gravity of Rejuvenated Soil Cement (RSC) decreased with increasing FA. The free swell ratio and linear shrinkage of RSC were significantly decreased with the increase in FA. The maximum dry unit weight of RSC increased with increasing FA up to the optimum FA content of 20 – 25 %. The optimum water content in compaction was relatively constant with the increase in FA. Particularly, the strength improvement in active zone of FA-RSC was influenced by several factors viz., compaction, packing, rehydration, and pozzolanic reaction. As a result, the unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of RSC increased with increase in FA and curing time. This research clearly showed that the rejuvenation of soil-cement with FA as additive was successful. It was also shown that the normalized UCSs of RSC at various curing times could be used to predict the UCSs at 7 and 28 days.
Conceptual Origins of Legal Linguistics
Authors: Galdia Marcus 
Published: November 2021

AbstractThis essay is a survey of methods applied and topics scrutinized in legal-linguistic studies. It starts with the elucidation of the epistemic interest that led to the emergence and to the subsequent expansion of the mainstream legal-linguistic knowledge that we dispose of today. Thus, the essay focuses upon the development of problem awareness in the emerging legal-linguistic studies as well as upon the results of research that might be perceived as the state of the art in the mainstream legal linguistics. Meanwhile, some methodologically innovative tilts and twists that enrich and inspire contemporary legal linguistics are considered as well. Essentially, this essay traces the conceptual landscape in which the paradigms of legal-linguistic studies came about. This conceptual landscape extends from the research into the isolated words of law and the style used by jurists to the scrutiny of legal texts and legal discourses in all their socio-linguistic complexity. Within this broad frame of reference, many achievements in legal-linguistic studies are mentioned in order to sketch the consequences of processes in which legal-linguistic paradigms take shape. The author concludes upon a vision of legal linguistics called pragmatic legal linguistics as the newest stage in the intellectual enterprise that aims to pierce the language of the law and by so doing to understand law better.
Forest land tax reductions – an effective payment for forest ecosystem services in Slovakia?

Published: November 2021

Abstract
Preferential land tax programs are used over 50 years and are mainly connected with nature protection and environmental goals. Nowadays, they are also considered as a way how to promote and support forest ecosystem services that arise from exempted forest land. In Slovak Republic national forest land tax reduction scheme exists for special purpose and protection forests, as well for other forests with special importance. The goal of the paper was to develop a multidimensional evaluation of this economic instrument for ecosystem service support in Slovakia. We evaluated how the forest land tax reduction fits into the payments for ecosystem services theory, which services are supported and what is the potential and implementation effectiveness according to theory of policy analysis. Even though, the forest owners and enterprises benefit from tax reductions, evidence regarding its visibility as payment for ecosystem service is low. Forest land tax reductions are considered as other economic incentive for ecosystem services support with moderate potential effectiveness. Despite the instrument have low visibility of FES supported from both sides – sellers and beneficiaries, its potential effectiveness is high, due its automatic and stable implementation without relevant implementation gaps.
