Authors: Gomes Siqueira Suéllen , Salvi Luana Carla , Varella de Carvalho Rodrigo , Chisini Alexandre 
Published: November 2024

Aim: Tooth sensitivity is the principal side effect as a clinical consequence resulting from tooth bleaching. Therefore, several strategies have been proposed to control this adverse effect. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of low-level laser therapy on tooth bleaching sensitivity compared to the placebo group or no intervention group. Literature Review: A search was carried out in six databases (BVS, PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Scielo, Cochrane library) until April 2024. Only studies with a randomized clinical trial or split-mouth design that performed in-office tooth bleaching and evaluated the effect of low-level laser therapy on post-bleaching sensitivity were included. The search was not limited by language or time. Due to the great heterogeneity observed between studies, the data were analyzed qualitatively. Results: Of the 586 records found, 478 remained after removing duplicates. Thus, 21 articles were accessed in full and only ten met the eligibility criteria and were included in the present review. Most of the studies (n=6; 60%) were with split-mouth designs. Considering the ten studies included in the present review, only two studies did not find a significant reduction in sensitivity after tooth bleaching in at least one of the periods evaluated. The application of low-level laser therapy before or after in-office tooth bleaching does not seem to influence the results. Conclusion: we observed that low-level laser therapy appears to have a positive effect in preventing sensitivity after tooth bleaching. This effect seems to only be significant in the first few days after tooth bleaching.

This research was conducted at PLN UP3 Gresik to evaluate the sitting posture of employees and determine its alignment with ergonomic standards. The study aimed to improve employee posture to ensure a safer and more comfortable work environment. Sixteen workers participated in the study, which involved observations, interviews, and the distribution of questionnaires to identify issues related to work posture. The OWAS (Ovako Working Posture Analysis System) and REBA (Rapid Entire Body Assessment) methods were employed based on established literature. The findings revealed a mismatch between the design of tables and chairs and ergonomic requirements. According to the OWAS method, the work posture code was 2, indicating the need for corrective action. The REBA method showed angular values of 7 for group A, 4 for group B, and 8 for group C, all suggesting a need for improvement due to musculoskeletal complaints. Data were gathered through Nordic Body Map (NBM) questionnaires and photo analyses of workers' postures. The study concludes that corrective actions are necessary, recommending that the company design seats based on workers' anthropometric data and conduct periodic evaluations to ensure ongoing comfort and safety.

Authors: Sesilia Khofidatul , Jufriyanto Moh. , Rizqi Akhmad Wasiur 
Published: November 2024

PT Petrokimia Gresik is the most comprehensive fertilizer manufacturer in Indonesia, and it produces a wide range of fertilizers and chemicals for agro-industry solutions. One of its products, NPK Phonska fertilizer, is always the product with the highest demand every year. In 2023, the demand for this fertilizer reached 1,972,380.55 tons. The main problem that often occurs is the overstocking and stocking out of raw materials. This condition not only results in increased storage costs but also threatens production continuity. Therefore, optimal inventory control is the company's main goal, which is to ensure the availability of raw materials in a timely manner and minimize costs. This study aims to find the most effective inventory control method in overcoming these problems. The EOQ (Economic Order Quantity) and POQ (Periodic Order Quantity) methods were chosen as alternative solutions. This research uses quantitative methods with data collection through field observations. The results showed that the most right inventory control method to reduce total inventory costs is the EOQ method, with a total cost of Rp7,043,999,215. This figure is lower than the POQ method of Rp11,071,943,308 and the Min-Max method used by the company of Rp23,217,085,977. The EOQ method is proven to be more efficient in managing inventory, resulting in cost savings of up to 69.7% or Rp16,173,086,762. Therefore, the application of the EOQ method is a good choice to be implemented in the company.

Authors: Sisyan Susanna , Babayan Izabella 
Published: November 2024

The content of any educational process must be progressive and derive from the primary goal of forming, teaching, and educating the essential abilities, capacities, and skills for the future specialist, as well as the value system, guided not by the level and requirements of the educational sector but by the educational system. In other words, the student should be viewed from the development perspective.
Pedagogical practices have an irreplaceable role in turning the knowledge acquired in the pedagogical university into abilities and in acquiring important professional qualities for the teacher, bearing in mind that the pedagogical profile of the teacher is completed during the pedagogical practical work. Pedagogical practice is one of the most critical components of pedagogical education, which aims to form and develop future educators' general and professional competencies.
To understand the current issues of Pedagogical practice as an essential means of forming the professional abilities of the future teacher and aim to help improve that process in the context of university education, we conducted research. We explored the process of organizing Pedagogical practice, tested its effectiveness, and developed recommendations for increasing the effectiveness of pedagogical practice.
Adoção intuitu personae: uma forma de garantir o melhor interesse da criança e adolescente
Authors: Bueno Michele Aparecida dos Santos , Ningeliski Adriane de Oliveira 
Published: November 2024

O presente estudo aborda a adoção intuitu personae, uma modalidade de adoção não prevista no Estatuto da Criança do Adolescente, que regra a adoção de crianças e adolescentes no Brasil. A adoção intuitu personae difere no ponto que permite que os pais biológicos direcionem a uma família seu filho, ou seja, há entrega para família não habilitada no cadastro nacional de adoção – CNA. Tal intento busca verificar a possibilidade de reconhecimento desse tipo de adoção, a fim de apurar se há o respeito ao princípio do melhor interesse infantojuvenil. A responsabilidade pela proteção e garantia desses direitos é compartilhada entre a família, sociedade e Estado de acordo com o artigo 227 da Constituição Federal. Desse modo, utiliza-se como metodologia de abordagem a dedutiva, assim se parte do pressuposto que a adoção direcionada pode ser reconhecida, uma vez que mantém a criança na comunidade em que vive e permite vínculos com a família de origem. Conclui-se, portanto, que a adoção intuitu personae é um modo a ser reconhecido pela Legislação pertinente.
Measuring Islamic Financial Literacy
Authors: McGregor Sue L. T. , Hamdan Alghamdi Amani K. 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
Islamic financial literacy (IFL) concerns Muslims’ ability to manage their money while respecting Islamic law and ensuring Shariah compliance. IFL is a pressing concern in Muslim-majority countries where conventional financial literacy rates tend to be very low (<30%) (compared to the 60% global average) and IFL rates even lower (10%). Efforts to study and measure IFL are underdeveloped but growing. The paper begins by exploring what constitutes conventional financial literacy versus IFL, then profiles a detailed compendium of nearly 30 Islamic finance concepts inherent to measuring IFL – both permitted (halal) and forbidden (haram) (e.g., riba, gharar, takaful, zakat, sukuk, and faraid). We identified and critiqued seven nascent initiatives (2016–2022) exemplifying efforts to develop IFL measures. Many initiatives only reached the development stage. Those that progressed to instrument validation yielded reliable measures, albeit seldom on a full range of Islamic finance concepts. Virtually no instruments were empirically tested. The paper culminated with recommendations for future research around studying this bourgeoning phenomenon.
Fabrication and characterization of a filament for 3D printing from polylactic acid with Cryptostegia grandiflora fiber
Authors: Santulli Carlo 
Published: November 2024

Abstract
Additive manufacturing (AM), i.e., 3D printing, has seen significant growth in recent years in all industries due to its potential advantages, requiring the polymers that are adapted as for melt flow index (MFI) to this use to have adequate tensile strength as well. Hence, in this work, a novel ligno-cellulosic fiber from Cryptostegia grandiflora (CG) and polylactic acid (PLA) were blended to obtain a filament for AM using a twin screw extruder. To determine the filament’s suitability for the 3D printing process, MFI and thermal degradation were examined. In order to identify the distribution and the effect of CG fiber (CGF) filler on the matrix, the filaments were examined using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). CGF powder distribution was observed in the microstructure of the CGF/PLA composite filament. Due to the high compatibility between PLA and CGF, their blending slightly increased the degradation temperature, though did not lead to any crystallinity loss, and the CGF/PLA filament showed 12.5% better tensile characteristics than the pure PLA filament. Based on their performance, the CGF may represent a suitable and compatible filler to improve the properties of the PLA filament for 3D printing applications.

Published: November 2024

This article is devoted to the analysis of the issues of the possibility and necessity of organizing and implementing public control outside the territorial borders of the state. The authors note that the public control is the most important legal guarantee for the implementation and protection of both the system of constitutional principles and the entire system of rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of citizens of the Russian Federation, as well as numerous non-governmental non-profit organizations. In this regard, the issues of determining the spatial boundaries of the functioning of this institution of civil society are of particular interest. In the context of international law, the territory of the planet is conventionally represented by the state territory of the countries of the world, territories with a mixed regime, as well as territories with an international regime (the Antarctic continent occupies a special place in this group of territories). The authors analyze the possibilities and limits of the functioning of public control within each group of these territories. The article uses a number of methods of scientific cognition, including: formal-logical; comparative-legal; historical-legal; statistical; sociological; method of analyzing specific legal situations. The paper analyzes modern problems that impede the optimal functioning of the institute of public control outside the territorial borders of the state (on the example of Russia), the most important of which are: the lack of consolidation in the legislation on public control of the concept and content of the territorial limits of the functioning of this institution of civil society; the absence in international legislation of direct consolidation of the institute of control of civil society of the peoples of the United Nations international governmental and non–governmental organizations; weak development of the institute of international associations and unions of subjects of public control (subjects of civil society); ignoring by a number of countries (including the United States) the need to sign and (or) ratify the most important UN conventions affecting territories with a mixed and international regime (for example, the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea dated 11/16/1994); weak development in the scientific doctrine of international law of forms, methods, principles, grounds and limits of the functioning of public control (control of civil society) outside the territorial borders of the state. The authors have developed and justified a system of measures to resolve these problems.
Nail changes in diabetes mellitus along with dermoscopic correlation: A cross-sectional observational study from a tertiary care institute in North India
Authors: Mahajan Mohita , Mahajan B. B. 
Published: November 2024

Objectives:
The pathological process of diabetes that occurs systemically is reflected in the nail, thereby helping in the early diagnosis and optimal management of diabetes. Hence, the aim of our study was to study the nail changes in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) and compare these nail changes with those occurring in non-DM patients.

Materials and Methods:
This cross-sectional observational study enrolled 200 patients which included 100 cases of DM and 100 non-DM age- and sex-matched controls and was conducted in a tertiary care institute over a period of 1.5 years. Onychoscopy was performed on all the patients.

Results:
Onychomycosis was present in 29% of diabetics as compared to 11% of controls (statistically significant – P = 0.001). Ragged cuticle was present in 63% of diabetics as compared to 22% of controls (P = 0.001). Longitudinal ridging was present in 46% of diabetics and 28% of controls (P = 0.008). Pitting was present in 8% (statistically not significant; P = 0.2), onychodystrophy in 4% (P = 0.04), paronychia in 16% (P = 0.002), and distal onycholysis (P = 0.05) of diabetics. Other nail changes included pterygium, leukonychia, Beau’s lines, thickening of the nail plate, melanonychia, and subungual hyperkeratosis.

Conclusion:
The nail changes are an important indicator of the underlying metabolic alterations. The nail changes that can be used as screening for DM include onychomycosis, paronychia, ragged cuticle, distal onycholysis, and onychodystrophy. Dermoscopy plays an important role in diagnosing these nail changes.
Neurosurgical treatment of cerebellar infarct: Open craniectomy versus endoscopic surgery
Authors: Mostofi Keyvan , Shirbache Kamran , Shirbacheh Ali , Peyravi Morad 
Published: November 2024

Background:
Cerebellar infarction can lead to severe morbidity and mortality. Current surgical options include decompressive craniectomy (DC) and endoscopic minimally invasive evacuation of necrotic tissue (MEN), but no randomized studies compare their outcomes.This study compares outcomes between DC and MEN in patients with cerebellar infarct using the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) and Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) scores.

Methods:
Retrospective review of 37 patients treated for cerebellar infarct between 2010 and 2020. Patients were divided into DC and MEN groups, with outcome measures assessed postoperatively.

Results:
Both techniques produced similar improvements in GCS and SARA scores, though MEN showed faster healing time and shorter surgery duration.

Conclusion:
MEN may offer advantages over traditional surgery in terms of healing and shorter operative time, warranting further investigation.

В структуре таможенных органов Российской Федерации произошли существенные изменения – была создана единая сеть электронных таможен и центров электронного декларирования, в связи с чем произошло разделение центров электронного декларирования и таможенных постов фактического контроля. В условиях такой модернизации произошло разделение документального контроля, проводимого центрами электронного декларирования, и фактического контроля, осуществляемого таможенными постами фактического контроля, в связи с чем возрастает значение таможенных постов фактического контроля, непосредственно обеспечивающих проведение таможенного контроля. В статье рассмотрена деятельность таможенных постов фактического контроля таможенных органов Российской Федерации. По результатам исследования даны предложения по решению проблем, связанных с проведением таможенного контроля таможенными постами фактического контроля Российской Федерации.
The structure of the customs authorities in the Russian Federation has changed significantly, the establishment of a single network of electronic customs offices and electronic declaration centers resulted in the separation of electronic declaration centers and customs stations of actual control. Such modernization led to the separation of documentary control carried out by electronic declaration centers and actual control carried out by customs stations of actual control, which increased the importance of customs stations of actual control immediately responsible for customs control. We consider the activity of the customs stations of actual control of the customs authorities of the Russian Federation. Based on the results of the study, we present our solutions to the problems concerning customs control by the customs stations of actual control of the Russian Federation.
