Authors: Ras Jaron , Holley Zoe Kelsey , Singh Varsha , Van Wyk Migael , Van Wyk Ryan , Leach Lloyd 
Published: August 2024

Background
Firefighters encounter dangerous conditions in their work environment that place them at risk of severe injury. Musculoskeletal injuries (MSIs) are one of the primary injuries sustained by firefighters, which may be due to the firefighters’ lack of knowledge and poor attitudes toward MSIs. Therefore, the aim of the study was to determine firefighters’ knowledge of and attitudes toward work-related MSIs in the City of Cape Town Fire and Rescue Service.

Methods
The study made use of convenient sampling and recruited 226 firefighters in the City of Cape Town Fire and Rescue Service. A self-administered researcher-generated questionnaire was used to collect information on the firefighters’ knowledge and attitudes about work-related MSIs. To ensure the validity and reliability of the questionnaire, the questionnaire underwent face and content validity, as well as a pilot study was conducted to ensure the questionnaire was suitable for research purposes. Mann-Whitney-U test, Kruskal-Wallis-H test, Spearman’s rank correlation and linear regression were utilized for data analyses. Statistical significance was set at a p-value less than 0.05.

Results
The results showed that most firefighters (62.6%) had good knowledge of work-related MSIs, and the majority (59.0%) had negative attitudes toward work-related MSIs. In addition, positive correlations were present between overall knowledge of work-related MSIs and overall attitudes toward work-related MSIs (r = 0.423, p <0.001) and between attitudes toward physical activity (r = 0.439, p <0.001). Overall knowledge of MSIs was linearly related to overall knowledge of MSIs (β = 0.383, p <0.001).

Conclusion
The majority of firefighters had good knowledge of work-related MSIs, but-negative attitudes toward MSIs. The promotion of educational programmes using short courses, workshops and webinars on the factors contributing to the high injury prevalence should be implemented and encouraged.

Published: August 2024

Introduction: Toxoplasma gondii, the agent of toxoplasmosis, is a global zoonosis affecting mammals and birds, with the domestic cat as its definitive host. Discovered in 1980, it infects one-third of the human population and is transmitted through contaminated food or congenitally, causing various syndromes.

Study Objective: To determine the incidence of Toxoplasma gondii in Ecuador during the period 2013-2023.

Methodology: A comprehensive literature review of publications from January 2013 to December 2023 was conducted, selecting relevant scientific articles. Searches were carried out in databases such as Scopus, WOS, Google Scholar, SciELO, Dialnet, institutional thesis repositories, and EBSCO.

Conclusion: Toxoplasmosis represents a major public health concern in Ecuador due to its high prevalence and associated risks. This necessitates regional preventive measures, such as food education and screening tests, due to the geographical and temporal variability of Toxoplasma gondii.

Published: August 2024

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate compliance with prevention behaviors in contexts of social outbreaks of COVID19 in young people, their association with infection, and the barriers to compliance.

Theoretical framework: The population between 15 and 29 years of age was among the most affected by COVID19. Prevention behaviors were public health measures aimed at preventing and/or controlling SARS-CoV-2 transmission at the societal level. It is necessary to review compliance with these measures and the associated factors in order to develop prevention plans for public health problems with social implications.

Methods: Case-control study among subjects aged 18-29 years exposed to outbreaks of COVID-19 in social events. Prevention behaviors were studied in 40 confirmed cases of COVID-19 and 40 controls.

Results and Discussion: Prevention behaviors among the young cases and controls analyzed during the COVID-19 pandemic have been low. Although they believed these behaviors to be effective, they had low perceived susceptibility to the disease and perception of risk among friends.

Research implications: Prevention behaviors and beliefs about their effectiveness are factors that should be analyzed in situations of public health risks and develop educational actions that encourage these behaviors to prevent the health of the population.

Originality/value: This study based on the experience during the COVID19 allows the analysis of prevention variables in social and educational contexts.

Objective: To investigate the supply chain of a small dermocosmetics company in Belo Horizonte, MG, by analyzing direct and indirect impact factors on the management of this chain.

Theoretical Framework: The study is based on supply chain management theories, SWOT analysis (strengths, opportunities, weaknesses, and threats), cause and effect analysis, and concepts of production planning and control (PPC).

Method: A single case study with a qualitative and descriptive approach. Data collection was conducted through on-site visits, unstructured interviews, and document analysis. The SWOT matrix was applied in the sales sector, disadvantages of the production process were identified, and causes and effects in supplier management were analyzed.

Results and Discussion: The study identified a lack of control in supplier management, production, and sales processes, resulting in negative impacts on the company's operational efficiency. The SWOT matrix revealed strengths such as a well-trained sales team, but also significant weaknesses such as inadequate inventory control. The cause and effect analysis identified overproduction, high inventory costs, and waste due to a lack of communication between processes.

Research Implications: The study enhances the understanding of the importance of effective supply chain management in small dermocosmetics companies and demonstrates the applicability of single case studies with detailed qualitative data collection.

Originality/Value: This research theoretically contributes to the literature on supply chain management and provides practical recommendations to improve the company's efficiency and competitiveness, highlighting the importance of effective management for the sustainability and growth of small businesses.

Authors: Menezes Catarina , Gamboa Maria José , Oliveira Marta 
Published: August 2024

A inovação tecnológica e a apropriação da tecnologia pelas pessoas, em contextos profundamente multimediáticos, têm vindo a alterar os modos de ler e de socializar leituras. No quadro de uma nova ecologia comunicacional, a tecnologia digital, em particular o podcast, constrói novas possibilidades de partilha e diálogo, redimensionando a dimensão sociocultural da leitura. Configura-se, assim, como um recurso que problematiza o conceito de leitura e os modos de ligar e formar leitores, desafiando à construção de comunidades informais que partilham as suas experiências de leitura. Neste sentido, apresenta-se o projeto Contrakapa, um podcast sobre livros e leituras, desenvolvido como projeto extracurricular, em contexto de ensino superior. A partir da aplicação de um questionário e da análise de conteúdo dos podcasts já publicados, pretende-se conhecer a forma como os participantes percecionam o seu envolvimento no projeto e o impacto que o mesmo teve/pode ter na sua construção enquanto leitores e elementos de uma comunidade leitora, nos seus modos de ler e de pensar o lugar da leitura e da literatura. Como se envolvem os participantes no projeto? Que motivos orientam o seu envolvimento? Como avaliam essa participação? O que sentem quando produzem e ouvem o podcast? O que pensam sobre o impacto do projeto no seu percurso leitor? Os dados obtidos apontam para um envolvimento positivo com o projeto, salientando-se uma dimensão emocional, fundamental para a construção de itinerários pessoais de leitura e de comunidades de leitores, e, consequentemente, para a exploração das suas possibilidades formativas em dinâmicas transmediáticas.

Authors: Sekar Ilamathi , Meenakshi K. Devi 
Published: August 2024

Objectives:
Breastfeeding is the single most important determinant of infant mortality and under-five mortalities. The objective of the study was to estimate the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of mothers regarding the World Health Organization (WHO) recommendations for breastfeeding.

Material and Methods:
This cross-sectional study was done on 350 mothers of children aged 2–5 years in a tertiary care hospital in Chennai. Data were collected on sociodemographic variables, knowledge, attitude, and practices of breastfeeding through face-to-face interviews. Data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences.

Results:
About 78.9% knew about early initiation of breastfeeding, 78.6% about exclusive breastfeeding, and 71.1% about breastfeeding till 2 years of age. About 66.9% of mothers initiated early breastfeeding, 60.6% exclusively breastfed, and 48.9% of mothers breastfed their children till 2 years. Only 26% fulfilled all the three criteria of the WHO recommendation for breastfeeding.

Conclusion:
Although the knowledge and attitude about breastfeeding were good, practices were not optimal. Strong information, education and communication (IEC) activities are needed to encourage mothers regarding breastfeeding practices.
Quality of Life of Children with Idiopathic Nephrotic Syndrome
Authors: Shukla Jyoti , Gupta Anita , Kalra Raminder 
Published: August 2024

Background
Nephrotic syndrome (NS) is relapsing–remitting illness affecting children and characterized by proteinuria, edema, and hypoalbuminemia. The disease involves the significant formative years of a child’s life and profoundly impacts their physical and psychosocial well-being. There is a scarcity of literature exploring the quality of life (QoL) of children with NS and the factors influencing them. The study aimed to discuss the QoL of children with NS and the factors influencing it.

Materials and Methods
A systematic search of electronic databases, including PubMed, Google Scholar, and Embase, was carried out from 2004 to August 2023. Nineteen original articles in English language that focused on evaluating the QoL of children with NS were included. Articles in languages other than English, letters, and editorial reviews, studies involving populations other than children, were excluded.

Results
Children with NS tend to have a better QoL as compared to those with other chronic diseases (p = <0.001), but it remains lower than that of healthy children (p<0.05). School functioning was the most affected domain. Recurrent relapses, prolonged illness, high steroid dosages, and multiple medications are significant contributors to impaired QoL. Children with steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS) had poorer QoL among the clinical subtypes.

Conclusion
Children with NS face various challenges that impact their QoL. Comprehensive care strategies to enhance QoL are the need of the hour.
США, Полония и внутриполитические процессы в Польше в 1946–1947 гг.
Authors: Nemchaninov D.G. 
Published: August 2024

The article examines American policy in relation to domestic political processes in Poland in 1946–1947. The article examines the main motives and methods of Washington's policy during the referendum in June 1946 and the elections in January 1947, as well as further tactics used to change the political course of Warsaw. The author pays attention to the influence of the activities of the Polish diaspora in the USA on these processes. The study found that the main place on the agenda of American policy in the Polish direction during this period was the holding of free elections in order to ensure the coming to power of the democratic Polish opposition. Issues of freedom of the press and maintaining relations with political parties occupied an important place in the activities of American diplomacy. Unable to physically influence the domestic political situation in Poland, the United States hoped to achieve its goals using diplomatic methods and levers of economic pressure. However, they were unable to significantly influence the domestic political situation in Poland. After the defeat of the Polish democratic opposition, Washington shifted its focus from the Polish People's Party to support the Polish Socialist Party. In addition, an additional bet was placed on the Catholic Church, which was in opposition to the Warsaw government. An important element of influence on the policy of the White House was the Polish diaspora in the United States.
В статье рассматривается американская политика в отношении внутриполитических процессов в Польше в 1946–1947 гг. Исследуются основные мотивы и методы политики Вашингтона в период проведения референдума в июне 1946 г. и выборов в январе 1947 г., а также дальнеи шая тактика, использованная для изменения политического курса Варшавы. Автор уделяет внимание влиянию на данные процессы деятельности польскои диаспоры в США. В ходе исследования установлено, что главное место в повестке американскои политики на польском направлении в данныи период занимало проведение свободных выборов с целью обеспечения прихода к власти демократическои польскои оппозиции. Важное место в деятельности американскои дипломатии занимали вопросы свободы прессы и поддержания отношении с политическими партиями. Не имея возможности физически повлиять на внутриполитическую ситуацию в Польше, США рассчитывали достичь поставленных целеи , используя дипломатические методы и рычаги экономического давления. Однако они не смогли существенно повлиять на внутриполитическую ситуацию в Польше. После поражения польскои демократическои оппозиции Вашингтон переориентировался с Польскои народнои партии на поддержку Польскои социалистическои партии. Кроме того, дополнительная ставка была сделана на католическую церковь, находившуюся в оппозиции к варшавскому правительству. Важным элементом влияния на политику Белого дома была польская диаспора в США.
