Published: May 2024

O presente estudo teve como objetivo Investigar a dinâmica e multidimensionalidade do currículo na educação física. Para tanto, metodologicamente nos valemos de um estudo de caso, no qual fizemos análise da proposta curricular para educação física escolar da rede pública municipal de Camaragibe-Pernambuco e realizamos entrevistas com 10 professores dessa mesma rede de ensino. Os dados foram tratados por análise de conteúdo categorial por temática, focando como categorias analíticas o documento curricular; a organização dos conhecimentos e as questões metodológicas. Enquanto categorias empíricas, analisamos o tempo de exercício e atuação na EFE, a organização dos conhecimentos por níveis de aprendizagem, o perfil formativo do professor, as questões metodológicas e o planejamento das aulas. Inferirmos que as contribuições e fragilidades reconhecidas pelos professores de educação física no movimento de implementação de uma proposta curricular passam e passaram por apropriações e produções num percurso revestido por diferentes singularidades, interações e decisões, até sua materialização na prática pedagógica. Isto posto, os dados do campo nos permitiram ratificar a compreensão de que o currículo, em sua dinamicidade, tem existência no movimento de apropriação e produção docente, especialmente entre o formal e o real. Esse aspecto reitera a importância de novos estudos que evidenciem como os professores de Educação Física se apropriam, produzem e materializam o currículo a partir de subsídios de uma perspectiva crítico-superadora, diante da dinâmica existente na realidade da prática pedagógica.

Authors: Morales Carlos R. 
Published: May 2024

Around the world, educational institutions continue to grapple with the need for change compounded by the aftereffects of the COVID-19 pandemic. It has been well forecasted that higher education institutions must change to cater to and better serve the modern learner's needs. Learners have many expectations about their educational institutions: agility, dynamism, new ways of learning, digital learning, flexibility, and new business models. At the heart of this, an institution has embraced these expectations through an online campus. This article discusses the success of the TCC Connect Campus, conceptualized as a centralized online eLearning campus in Texas, which has embraced many of these tenets. The author will communicate the strategies employed to grow and scale academic offerings, student services, quality, and rigor and develop best practices to satisfy the needs of non-traditional students in a completely online campus. The campus will be celebrating its 10th year of operation in 2024.

Het IFF-arrest: het onderscheid tussen artikel 7:611 BW en artikel 7:613 BW is en blijft relevant
Het leerstuk van de (eenzijdige) wijziging van arbeidsvoorwaarden houdt de gemoederen al lange tijd bezig. Sinds 1998 spelen vragen als: Wat is de verhouding tussen de artikelen 7:611 BW, 7:613 BW en 6:248 lid 2 BW? Hebben zij betrekking op verschillende domeinen, zoals het individuele en het collectieve? En is er een onderlinge hiërarchie tussen de toetsingsmaatstaf van die artikelen? Het IFF-arrest bevestigt dat de rol van artikel 6:248 lid 2 BW zeer beperkt is. Dat roept de vraag op of artikel 7:611 BW en artikel 7:613 BW in feite inwisselbaar zijn geworden. Heeft de werkgever nog wat aan een eenzijdig wijzigingsbeding? Doordat de Hoge Raad in IFF oordeelt dat artikel 7:611 BW ook op collectieve wijzigingen ziet, is dat een legitieme vraag. Toch is er voldoende dogmatisch verschil tussen artikel 7:611 BW en artikel 7:613 BW om beide artikelen te handhaven. Met name het collectieve ordeningsbelang van artikel 7:613 BW noopt daartoe.

Published: May 2024

Root-knot nematodes have a wide host range, causing damage to many annual and perennial crops. More than 100 species of Meloidogyne are known in which M. incognita (Kofoid and White) Chitwood is one of the most common and important plant parasitic nematode in tropical and subtropical regions of the world including Pakistan. Therefore, the present study was planned to check the effect of PGPRs on juvenile mortality and egg hatching inhibition of M. incognita under lab conditions. Eggs were isolated from egg masses by using NaOCl solution. Rhizobacteria (Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Azotobacter chroococcum, Azospirillum sp., Rhizobium leguminosarum) were multiplied on nutrient broth and kept overnight at 28 ± 2 °C in shaking incubator. Cell free culture filtrates were obtained in falcon tubes by centrifuging PGPRs @ 4000 RPM twice for 30 minutes. Two ml of toxins of each PGPR was poured into each 5cm-dia. petri plate and 100 microliters of egg suspension containing approximately 100 eggs were put in each petri plate. Similar experimental conditions and protocols were used for juveniles’ mortality. In this experiment, instead of eggs, 100 J2s contained in 100 microliters of juvenile suspension were put in each petri plate. The petri plates were placed in completely randomized design in incubator at 28 ± 2 °C with ten replicates. Petri dishes containing distilled water were kept under control. All the PGPRs caused larval mortality and inhibition in egg hatching with varying degrees. The maximum egg hatching was inhibited by Bacillus subtilis while Rhizobium leguminosarum was found the least effective. The other PGPRs i.e. Pseudomonas fluorescens, Azotobacter chroococcum, and Azospirillum sp. showed intermediate results.

Published: May 2024

Gagal napas adalah kondisi dimana pernapasan tidak dapat mengeluarkan karbon dioksida dari tubuh (hiperkapnia) dan tidak dapat menyuplai oksigen kedalam tubuh (hipoksemia) secara adekuat. Intervensi manajemen jalan napas harus segera diberikan karena akan berdampak pada kerusakan otak bahkan kematian pada anak. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk menggambarkan penerapan terapi nebulasi menggunakan NaCl 3% dalam mengatasi bersihan jalan napas tidak efektif. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain studi kasus. Kriteria hasil yang diharapkan dengan dilakukannya intervensi yaitu adanya pengeluaran sekret, suara ronkhi di lapang paru meredup dan frekuensi napas membaik. Hasil yang didapatkan sebelum diberikan intervensi frekuensi napas pasien di rentang 24 - 42x/menit dengan suara ronkhi di seluruh lapang paru, setelah diberikan intervensi frekuensi napas ada di rentang 23-28x/menit. NaCl 3% terbukti efektif dalam mengatasi bersihan jalan napas dan meningkatkan saturasi oksigen. NaCl 3% bekerja mengencerkan sekret dan meningkatkan refleks batuk pada bayi. Hal ini dikarenakan mekanisme kerja hipertonik yang menganggu ikatan ion sekret dan mengurangi keterikatan silang yang ada didalamnya, melembabkan saluran pernapasan, dan merangsang pelepasan prostaglandin. Pemberian terapi nebulasi NaCl 3% dengan posisi semi fowler terbukti efektif dalam mengatasi masalah keperawatan bersihan jalan napas tidak efektif. Pemberian NaCl 3% lebih direkomendasikan untuk anak dibandingkan dengan pemberian salbutamol dan epinefrin.
NEUROMODULAÇÃO NÃO INVASIVA NO EQUILÍBRIO EM PACIENTES APÓS ACIDENTE VASCULAR CEREBRAL: REVISÃO SISTEMÁTICA
Authors: Vale David Soares , Silva Sátylla Jayne de Oliveira Costa , Macêdo Jordano Leite Cavalcante de 
Published: May 2024

O Acidente Vascular Cerebral ocorre devido à interrupção do fluxo sanguíneo para o cérebro (AVC isquêmico) ou à ruptura de vasos sanguíneos no cérebro (AVC hemorrágico). Isso pode resultar em implicações permanentes, exigindo adaptação familiar, sobrecarregando o sistema de saúde e acarretando custos. Compartilha fatores de risco com doenças cardiovasculares, como tabagismo, dislipidemia, hipertensão arterial, diabetes, obesidade e sedentarismo. Globalmente, o Acidente Vascular Cerebral é a segunda principal causa de morte, com aumento de 42% na incidência mundial. No Brasil, em 2016, foram registrados cerca de 102.965 óbitos por Acidente Vascular Cerebral. A prevalência de Acidente Vascular Cerebral é avaliada em 1,6% em homens e 1,4% em mulheres. Alguns fatores de risco não modificáveis incluem idade, raça, genética e sexo, enquanto outros, como hipertensão arterial, diabetes, doenças cardíacas, álcool, tabagismo e obesidade, podem ser diagnosticados e tratados. O objetivo deste estudo surgiu da necessidade da busca por maiores evidências abordando o uso da Neuromodulação Transcraniana Não Invasiva no tratamento dos indivíduos em questão. Ou seja, avaliar através da revisão a efetividade da intervenção no equilíbrio em pacientes pós Acidente Vascular Cerebral. A pesquisa trata-se de uma revisão sistemática de ensaios clínicos randomizados analisados por dois revisores independentes nas bases de dados nas bases National Library of Medicine, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, LILACS, Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde e Physiotherapy Evidence Database. Foram incluídas 3 revisões sistemáticas que utilizaram a Neuromodulação Não Invasiva como intervenção em pacientes pós Acidente Vascular Cerebral, sendo utilizada a escala PEDro para analisar a qualidade metodológica dos artigos. Conclui-se que a Neuromodulação Não Invasiva, especialmente através de EMTr e ETCC, é eficaz na recuperação motora pós Acidente Vascular Cerebral. A EMTr precoce induz plasticidade cortical, melhorando a função motora nas fases aguda e subaguda. A combinação de ETCC com treinamento específico, como RAGT, mostra promessa na melhoria da marcha em Acidente Vascular Cerebral crônico. A abordagem CRBiTBS destaca-se na recuperação da marcha e equilíbrio em Acidente Vascular Cerebral isquêmico. A Neuromodulação Não Invasiva é uma opção terapêutica promissora para melhorar equilíbrio e função motora pós Acidente Vascular Cerebral.

The objective: to determine causes of frequent detection of disseminated tuberculosis in HIV-infected patients taking into account the behavioral characteristics of patients, to propose additional measures to enhance tuberculosis detection.Subjects and Methods. 108 questionnaires filled out by TB/HIV co-infected patients staying in specialized hospitals in 3 regions of the Russian Federation were studied. We filled out the first 18 questionnaires ourselves while talking to patients, to assess whether the questions were clear to patients. The questionnaire included 28 questions with prompted answers; in addition, patients could give their own answers. Using the questionnaire, we found out whether the patients were seeking medical help in a timely manner, units to which they referred, awareness of tuberculosis before developing it, and exposure to tuberculous infection.Results. The majority of interviewed patients with previously diagnosed HIV infection did not undergo medical examination at the Center for AIDS Prevention and Control (CAIDSPC). When complaints associated with tuberculosis appeared, 57/108 (52.8%) respondents referred to the clinic at their place of residence. In 56/108 (51.8%) patients, 2 or more months passed from the moment of referral for medical help to diagnosis and initiation of tuberculosis treatment. 7/108 (6.5%) respondents reported history of tuberculosis, and 4/108 (3.7%) respondents reported exposure to a tuberculosis patient. After developing tuberculosis, 20/108 (18.5%) respondents were exposed to other HIV-infected patients. After detection of HIV infection, 93 (86.1%) patients indicated that they had not been made aware of tuberculosis.

Cohort studies published from January 1, 2019 to June 20, 2023 were selected, those studies were aimed to assess effectiveness of surgical treatment in patients with destructive tuberculosis using resections of various volume. For meta-analysis, 9 studies published in 2019 - 2023 were selected.Results. The effectiveness of comprehensive treatment with resections of various volume in destructive pulmonary tuberculosis patients made 85.3%. The success of surgical treatment in patients with fibrous cavernous pulmonary tuberculosis was somewhat less – 80.3%. At the same time, the incidence of postoperative complications in patients with fibrous cavernous pulmonary tuberculosis was higher and could reach 42.5%, while in the group patients with destructive tuberculosis, it was 27.3%. Some postoperative complications required repeated operations. The ratio of surgeries to patients was the following: 3263 surgical interventions per 1564 patients (average 2.08 surgeries per patient). Hospital lethality among patients with fibrous cavernous pulmonary tuberculosis after surgical treatment was 2.6%, and tuberculosis mortality within 5 years after surgery was 4.8%. The relapse rate among patients with fibrous cavernous pulmonary tuberculosis after surgical treatment was 7.1%.

Teachers' historical knowledge emerges from diverse historiographic, cultural and intrinsically educational influences on what history should be taught and how it should be taught. Therefore, this research aims to determine which historical figures emerge from the imaginary of Primary Education teachers, due to their historical relevance, their educational values and their connection with the present. The sample consisted of 105 teachers from various regions in Spain, who were questioned using a mixed-question instrument, which included both closed and open questions. The results show the pre-eminence of historical figures closely connected with national or regional identities, and with outstanding values of the present, which are given great historical significance and, in general, a high educational value. However, teachers tend to grant this educational value to the characters as a direct exemplification, positive or negative, of current democratic values, which they rarely problematize in their historical context.
El conocimiento histórico de los docentes se nutre de diversas influencias historiográficas, culturales e intrínsecamente educativas, sobre lo que se debe enseñar de Historia y cómo se debe enseñar. Por ello, en esta investigación se quiere determinar qué personajes históricos emergen del imaginario de los y las docentes de Educación Primaria, por su relevancia histórica, sus valores educativos y su conexión con el presente. La muestra estuvo compuesta por 105 profesores de varias Comunidades Autónomas, que fueron interrogados a través de un cuestionario de tipo mixto, que incluía preguntas cerradas y abiertas. Los resultados muestran la preminencia de personajes históricos muy conectados con la identidad nacional o regional y con valores destacados del presente, a los que se concede una gran significatividad histórica y, por lo general, un alto valor educativo. Sin embargo, los docentes suelen otorgar este valor educativo a los personajes como ejemplificación directa, positiva o negativa, de valores democráticos actuales, que pocas veces problematizan en su contexto histórico.
