Authors: Середкина Екатерина Андреевна , Вьюговская Елена Васильевна 
Published: June 2024

Статья основана на данных онлайн опроса, проведенного среди родителей, имеющих хотя бы одного ребенка в возрасте 10-17 лет. Опрос проводился в восьми регионах страны, реализованная выборка составила 115 115 анкет. Для анализа отобраны наблюдения, в которых указан размер домохозяйства и указаны расходы хотя бы на одну из трат на ребенка – дополнительное образование и медицина. Подвыборка составила 100 397 анкет (87% от всей выборки). В статье показаны факторы, определяющие вероятность более высоких расходов домохозяйств на дополнительное образование и здоровье ребенка, в том числе состав и место проживания домохозяйства и др. Кроме того, было выявлено, что пол ребенка и его возраст являются значимыми факторами для размера расходов домохозяйства по рассматриваемым категориям. Девочки по сравнению с мальчиками зачастую оказываются более включенными в систему дополнительного образования, что влияет на уровень расходов их родителей на эту сферу. В младших возрастах бо́льшие траты на здоровье наблюдаются среди родителей мальчиков, но начиная с 13 лет в расходах на здоровье появляется дисбаланс в пользу девочек. Более высокие траты на здоровье девочек отчасти могут быть объяснены тем, что к 17-летнему возрасту большая доля девочек по сравнению с мальчиками имеет ограничения по здоровью. Кроме того, наблюдается существенная разница в доле мальчиков и девочек, занимающихся спортом (не в пользу последних), что также может быть фактором более высоких расходов на их здоровье.

Objectives. To determine the effects of aerobic exercise on the components of the metabolic syndrome in older diabetic patients. Materials and methods: We used the PubMed/Medline, Scopus, Cochrane library, Web of Science databases and the Google Scholar search engine. Randomized controlled trials ( RCTs ) were selected according to the inclusion criteria. Two review authors independently determined whether studies met the inclusion criteria, extracted data and used the Cochrane risk of bias (ROB 2.0) tool. Quantitative analyzes were performed in R V. 4.0.5 using random effects. Results. The searches identified 8697 studies, of which 7 RCTs were included in the qualitative synthesis. Most studies were assessed to have high or low ROB in at least three domains. The meta-analysis showed that aerobic exercise was effective in improving glucose levels (standardized mean difference [SMD]: -1.04; 95% confidence interval [CI]: -1.27, -0.81), systolic blood pressure ([SMD]: -0.79; [CI]: -1.02; -0.56), diastolic blood pressure ([SMD]: -0.75; [CI]: -0.98; -0.52), glycosylated hemoglobin ([SMD]: -0.57, [CI]: -0.77, -0.37), HDL ([SMD]:0.35, [CI]: 0,15 ; 0.55), triglycerides ([SMD]: -0.26; [CI]: -0.47; -0.06). No significant adverse effects were reported. Conclusions. Aerobic exercise was shown to have a significant improvement in the components of the metabolic syndrome in diabetic older adults and no significant adverse effects were reported. However, we recommend more RCTs with a longer intervention time to establish the impact on symptoms and complications.

Published: June 2024

Objetivos. Analizar el impacto presupuestario de upadacitinib (UPA) 15 mg + metotrexato (MTX) para el tratamiento de la artritis reumatoide (AR) moderada a grave en pacientes con respuesta inadecuada a los fármacos antirreumáticos modificadores de la enfermedad convencionales (RI-DMARc) desde la perspectiva de la seguridad social y los sectores de salud privados en Argentina. Materiales y métodos. Se desarrolló un modelo de análisis de impacto presupuestario para una cohorte hipotética de 100,000 adultos con cobertura de seguro de salud que fueron diagnosticados con AR en un horizonte de tiempo de 5 años. Los parámetros del modelo se obtuvieron a través de una revisión de la literatura y se validaron con expertos locales. Los costos se expresan en dólares estadounidenses (USD) para el 2024. Resultados. La introducción de UPA 15 mg + MTX para el tratamiento de AR moderada a grave y RI-DMARc resultó en un costo incremental mínimo, con un costo acumulado total a cinco años de USD 1.855 para la seguridad social y USD 1.812 para el sector privado de salud, lo que representa aproximadamente el 2% del presupuesto total. El costo de adquisición de UPA fue la variable más influyente en el análisis de sensibilidad. Conclusiones. La introducción de UPA 15 mg + MTX para el tratamiento de AR genera un incremento de costos marginal para el sistema de salud en Argentina, lo cual es especialmente importante en contextos de presupuestos limitados. Proporcionar estimaciones basadas en la evidencia es una herramienta valiosa para ayudar a tomar decisiones informadas sobre la asignación eficiente de recursos en salud.

Echinococcosis has been known since the time of Hippocrates. Since then, terms and definitions have been coined or adapted in different languages to refer to multiple aspects related to this zoonosis. It is important to promote a good understanding in reading and writing at the level of scientific, academic information, for general knowledge and mass dissemination. During the 27th World Echinococcosis Congress, a working group was established for this purpose. The result was a consensus with recommendations applicable to science and communication between professionals, published in 2020 in English. On the recommendation of some members of the WHO Informal Working Group on Echinococcosis (WHO-IWGE), a working group composed of experts on echinococcosis from Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Spain, Paraguay, Peru and Uruguay was convened to prepare a proposal of terminology in Spanish. The result of this consensus is to propose a unified nomenclature of progressive application, which serves as a basis for consultation and reference.

Published: June 2024

Any reduction in friction between the orthodontic wire and the bracket can speed up tooth movement in the sliding technique and result in improved 3-D control. The purpose of this study was to investigate frictional forces caused by covering orthodontic wires and brackets with silver oxide nanoparticles (AgO).: In this study, 30 brackets (0.022 × 0.028” slot) and 30 arch wires (0.019 × 0.025” SS wires) were taken and split into 3 groups. The first group included uncoated arch wires and brackets. The second group included uncoated arch wires and coated brackets. The third group included coated arch wires and coated brackets. These brackets were further examined under Scanning electron microscopy to evaluate the AgO nanoparticle coating and its thickness. These brackets and wires were then subjected to a friction test with the help of a UNIVERSAL TESTING MACHINE. Frictional forces were statistically analysed using One-way ANOVA test followed by Tukey’s HSD Post hoc Analysis.: Coating with AgO nanoparticles significantly influenced frictional force values (P &#60; 0.0001). The first group showed 0.8690 ± 0.1512 N (control).The second group showed 0.4815 ± 0.0840 N. The third group showed 0.2010 ± 0.0445 N. This mean difference in the Frictional force between 3 groups was statistically significant.: AgO nanoparticles may be a unique way to dramatically reduce friction during tooth movement because of their beneficial impacts on lowering frictional forces.

To assess the understanding, acceptance and compliance of patient undergoing fixed orthodontic treatment. A self-designed closed-ended questionnaire of 15 questions, addressing understanding, acceptance and compliance of patient were distributed to 400 adult patients undergoing fixed orthodontic treatment at MIDSR Dental College, India. Cross-sectional questionnaire survey was conducted. Before participation in the study consent was taken from every patient. The descriptive statistics was used for evaluation of obtained data. A total of 400 participants responded to the survey. The results shows that patient’s understanding about necessity of treatment, its duration, and treatment plan for fixed orthodontic treatment was 62.2%. The acceptance rate for treatment selection by orthodontist, for wearing retainer and to convince friends or relatives for fixed orthodontic treatment was 53.52% and theywere happy with the treatment. While 69.5% patients were having good compliance for brushing teeth twice daily by using orthodontic toothbrush, for using mouthwash and for modifying diet with the fixed orthodontic treatment. Although many of patients were found to have good understanding of orthodontic therapy but acceptance towards orthodontic treatment and orthodontic treatment protocols was average. Orthodontist still need to work on this aspect to increase the acceptance of treatment among patients. The Compliance of patients was satisfactory as they strictly adhere to dietary restrictions maintained good oral hygiene by using special cleaning aids. The study concludes that the orthodontists need to take an active role in increasing orthodontics-related patient behaviours by improving patient education

O presente artigo tem, por finalidade, a análise dos critérios para ascensão na carreira profissional dos aprovados nas vagas reservadas para deficientes nos últimos concursos públicos para servidores do Tribunal de Justiça da Paraíba, realizados em 2008 e 2012, e a progressão funcional em igualdade de oportunidades. Considerando as ações afirmativas, examina-se a política de reserva de quotas para deficientes em concurso públicos e a imposição constitucional como instrumento de inclusão, de acordo com os princípios da igualdade e da dignidade da pessoa humana, previstos na Constituição Federal de 1988, na Convenção Internacional sobre Direitos da Pessoa com Deficiência e Estatuto da Pessoa com Deficiência. Através de pesquisa bibliográfica, e análise documental e exploratória, levantaram-se dados dos últimos concursos (2008 e 2012), para analisar os critérios adotados nos respectivos editais, a lotação e a promoção na carreira laborativa dos servidores deficientes, examinando a articulação da proteção jurídica das pessoas com deficiência com o princípio geral de igualdade. Nesse contexto, verifica-se que as ações afirmativas direcionadas à pessoa com deficiência vem se consolidando ao longo do tempo, haja vista que muitas conquistas foram alcançadas, mas resta comprovada que a concretização dessas medidas está ligada à compreensão de seus destinatários e dos superiores imediatos, responsáveis por avaliá-los e por promover um ambiente de trabalho produtivo e adaptado às deficiências apresentadas pelo subordinado. Assim, firma-se a necessidade imperiosa de uma cultura que respeite as diferenças, como baluarte do valor maior da dignidade da pessoa humana, meta perene da Constituição de 1988.

Published: June 2024

The use of alternative fuels and electric vehicles is an opportunity to reducing exhaust emissions. We observe that the regulations on exhaust emissions from mobile sources are becoming gradually stricter on the all the world. As is widely known, using alternative fuels instead of conventional fuels helps lower vehicle emissions. The most popular alternative fuels are hydrogen, propane, biobutanol, methanol, dimethyl ether, etc. It is very important that more than a dozen alternative fuels are under development. The article contains a comparison of the operating costs of electric cars and cars with an internal combustion engine. This work shows also the characteristic of new alternative fuels and their impacts on exhaust emissions.

Authors: Sardiña Eduardo , Hijón-Neira Raquel 
Published: June 2024

The text examines the assessment of learning in science and the use of technologies like Scratch to enhance this process. Assessment is crucial for measuring progress and guiding teaching, especially in science where it fosters scientific skills and understanding. The study focuses on third-year secondary education students, evaluating the impact of Scratch on their learning compared to a gamification approach. Scratch, developed by MIT, is effective in interactive teaching and improves academic performance and student motivation. The research used an experimental design with a control group (gamification) and an experimental group (Scratch), measuring acquired knowledge through pretests and posttests. Results show that both groups significantly improved their knowledge, although the control group had a higher baseline initially. Students valued collaboration and playful learning. However, they faced technical challenges and highlighted the importance of teamwork. The study concludes that Scratch has great educational potential, suggesting improvements such as redesigning activities and increasing work sessions to maximize its effectiveness in learning and student motivation.

Virtual melting and cyclic transformations between amorphous Si, Si I, and Si IV in a shear band
Authors: Levitas Valery , Chen Hao 
Published: June 2024

Abstract

Virtual melting (VM) as alternative deformation and stress relaxation mechanisms under extreme load is directly validated by molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of the simple shear of single crystal Si I at a temperature 1,383 K below the melting temperature. The shear band consisting of liquid Si is formed immediately after the shear instability while stress drops to zero. A thermodynamic criterion for VM, which depends on the ratio of the sample to shear band widths, is derived analytically and confirmed by MD simulations. With further shear, the VM immediately transforms to a mixture of lowdensity amorphous a-Si, Si I, and IV, which undergo cyclic transformations a-Si to and from Si I, a-Si to and from Si IV, and Si I to and from Si IV with volume fraction of phases mostly between 0.2 and 0.4 and non-repeatable nanostructure evolution. Such cyclic transformations produce additional important carriers for plastic deformation through transformation strain and transformation-induced plasticity due to volume change, which may occur in shear bands in various material systems but missed in experiments and simulations.
