Authors: Tjujitno Aurellia Valmai , Prastyani Reni , Susanto Joni , Loebis Rozalina , Indriaswati Luki , Wulandari Lely Retno 
Published: February 2025

Highlights:

The younger age and shorter duration of misalignment are significant predictors of success in horizontal strabismus surgery. Younger patients tend to have higher success rates, and shorter durations of misalignment correlate with better surgical outcomes.

Despite variations in population and surgical methods, the overall success rate of 82.3% for horizontal strabismus surgeries aligns with previous studies. This consistency underscores the reliability of surgical outcomes in different settings.

Abstract
Introduction: Strabismus is an eye disorder characterized by misalignment of the eyes, which can occur in individuals of any age. This study explored the surgical outcomes of horizontal strabismus correction in patients, aiming to provide insights into the factors influencing success.
Methods: A prospective study was conducted with 17 patients (n=17) who underwent surgery at Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital, Surabaya, Indonesia. Preoperative factors, including age, duration of misalignment, and preoperative angle of strabismus, were analyzed for their impact on surgical success. The International Business Machines Corporation (IBM) Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) for Macintosh version 27.0 was used for data analysis.
Results: This study reviewed the medical records of 17 research samples (n=17). A significant change in the median angle of deviation prism diopters (PD) preoperatively was indicated by the median Postoperative Deviation (PD) (p<0.001). A significant difference in median age at surgery was observed between successful and unsuccessful cases (p=0.035), with younger individuals exhibiting a higher success rate. The duration of misalignment emerged as a crucial factor, with a shorter duration correlating positively with a higher probability of surgical success (p<0.001). Notably, successful outcomes were achieved by all children (100%), suggesting a potential trend indicating age as a predictor of success. While the preoperative angle of strabismus did not significantly impact success, a trend emerged (p=1), indicating a potential threshold effect for more significant angles.
Conclusion: Knowing the significance of age and duration of misalignment on the success rate of strabismus surgery allows for enhanced preoperative assessments, optimized timing of surgery, and developed predictive models to assist in clinical decision-making, ultimately leading to more efficient and successful surgical outcomes.

Published: February 2025

For generations, Mississippi Delta residents have been subjected to food inequity and resource deprivation from centuries of racism. The Food Is Medicine (FIM) movement is gaining salience as one solution to address diet-related health conditions in partnership with health care providers, medical systems, and local agriculture groups. The Delta GREENS (Growing a Resilient, Enriching, Equitable, Nourishing food System) FIM research study conducted focus groups in July and August 2023 to center the perspectives and lived expertise of residents in the Mississippi Delta receiving health care services from the Delta Health Centers. This analytic essay provides context of the past and present food and farming infrastructure in the Mississippi Delta from the residents of these communities. The goal is to inform equitable and sustainable FIM interventions in the rural South and elsewhere in the country among historically marginalized populations. ( Am J Public Health.

Does green credit policy promote the formation of new quality productivity in resource-based enterprises? Evidence from China
Authors: LI Ting , ZHONG Wen , YAN Zhiqing 
Published: February 2025

Abstract

The green credit policy is designed to foster sustainable and high-quality development within enterprises. However, it currently lacks focus on the development of new productive forces in resource-based enterprises, particularly concerning the systemic effects of financing constraints, technological changes, and awareness of green transformation. These areas warrant further investigation. This study leverages a quasi-natural experiment based on the original Green Credit Guidelines by the China Banking Regulatory Commission, initiated in 2012. Using data from resource-based enterprises listed in China’s A-share market from 2008 to 2022, a difference-in-difference approach assesses the impact of green credit policies on the emergence of new quality production capacities within these firms. The research indicates that green credit policies can effectively integrate environmental regulation with financial resource allocation, substantially enhancing total factor productivity and fostering new quality productivity within resource-based enterprises. Mechanism analysis reveals that these policies mitigate financing constraints, stimulate technological advancements, and strengthen green transformation awareness, thereby boosting total productivity and quality of production. Heterogeneity analysis points out that the influence of green credit policies is more pronounced in less marketed regions compared to highly marketed ones, and it is more significant in state-owned enterprises than in non-state-owned enterprises. Additionally, throughout various enterprise lifecycles—decline, maturity, and growth—the need to bolster primary responsibilities and differentiate requirements for policy implementation becomes evident.

Published: February 2025

Abstract

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the 2nd leading cause of cancer death in the United States (US). Rural Appalachia suffers the highest CRC incidence and mortality rates. There are several non-clinical health-related social determinant factors (SDOH) associated with cancer mortality. This study describes novel predictive modeling that uses demographic, clinical, and SDOH features from health records data from Appalachian community cancer centers to predict 5-year CRC survival. We trained, validated, and tested four gradient-boosted tree ensemble (XGBoost) machine learning models which were developed using selected combinations of available features. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was greatest in the model that included SDOH features with demographic and clinical features (0.79; P < 0.0001). Feature stratification showed rurality as the top SDOH feature. It is demonstrated that the ML model performs better when SDOH features are included, and that rurality significantly impacts CRC survival in Appalachia.
Fault Detection, Classification and Localization in Power Transmission Lines Using ANN
Authors: Sokolović Živko , Žarković Mileta 
Published: February 2025

Abstract

Power transmission line is key equipment in secure and reliable power flow in each power system. To arise reliability and security of overhead power lines, different types of failures should be simulated to minimize their impact and to detect and resolve them as quickly as possible. The objective of this paper is to provide an accurate method for detection, classification and localization of faults occurring in power transmission lines using Artificial Neural Network (ANN). Power transmission system was modelled in DIgSILENT PowerFactory, simulating both normal and fault scenarios. Three types of faults were considered for simulation: single-phase-to-ground fault, two-phase short circuit, and three-phase short circuit. Each fault was simulated across the 110 kV power lines with a resolution of 5%. In addition to the fault scenarios, normal scenario was carried out using a load flow analysis, where the system’s load was varied. Voltage and current data from these simulations were utilized to train and test the ANN model. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was applied for dimensionality reduction, improving the efficiency and performance of the ANN model. The proposed model achieved an accuracy of 100% in detecting fault types, a fault classification accuracy of 94% for identifying the fault line, and a mean absolute error (MAE) of 1.15 in pinpointing the exact fault position. These results demonstrate the model's effectiveness in accurately identifying and localizing faults in power transmission lines, significantly contributing to the reliability and stability of power grid operations.

ABSTRACT

Assessment of hydrological flux under climate and land use change is critical. For the Ken-Betwa river-linking project underway in central India, a pre-assessment of land use land cover (LULC) and climate change effects on the hydrology of the Betwa River basin becomes essential. Land Change Modeler suggests a sustained expansion in open forests and built-up land. Agricultural land area shows a decline for 2030 and 2050. Model performance measures such as Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency, R2, PBIAS, and RSR for calibration (1987–1999)/validation (2000–2018) were 0.66, 0.67, 1.2, 0.59, and 0.64, 0.65, 9.2, and 0.60, respectively, based on the historical climate (1984–2018) and land use map. SSP245 scenarios (MRI-ESM2-0 and ACCESS-ESM1-5) and LULC 1990, 2010, 2030, and 2050 show a decreasing trend in the average annual discharge. Average annual river discharge declined with the MRI-ESM2-0 model under SSP245 and LULC 2010 scenarios, while a more optimal decline was observed under SSP245 and LULC 1990 scenarios. There is a substantial decline in average annual river discharge with ACCESS-ESM1-5 under SSP245 and LULC 2050, whereas the least projected decline is under SSP245 and LULC 1990. Both models exhibited a decreasing trend in average annual discharge at the outlet from mid-century.
"Não Vão Nos Matar Agora"

O presente artigo busca analisar sobre como as comunidades quilombolas atravessaram o contexto da Pandemia da Covid-19, identificando quais foram as ações comissivas e omissivas do Estado Brasileiro de proteção a esses grupos, no intuito de investigar a possível presença do racismo na política estatal. Na primeira sessão do texto, analisamos as notas públicas da CONAQ e da CEACQ, o PL 1142/2020 para promoção de direitos tradicionais na pandemia, os vetos presidenciais que resultaram no desmonte do referido PL e a ADPF 742 no STF sobre o plano nacional de enfrentamento da pandemia voltado à população quilombola. Nesse aspecto, destacamos as mobilizações de organizações de direitos humanos e movimentos quilombolas nos processos de disputa por políticas públicas, sob um viés crítico e antirracista. Assim, na segunda seção, discutimos a relação entre a pandemia nos quilombos com três denominados mitos: 1) o mito da democracia racial; 2) o mito da “pandemia democrática”; e 3) o "mito" Bolsonaro. Por fim, identificou-se que, tal como vem sendo feito há séculos no Brasil, o Estado Brasileiro, especialmente o Governo Federal, violou diversos direitos das comunidades quilombolas a nível nacional, de modo que se não fossem organizações, como a CONAQ, não haveriam se quer medidas para tentar minimizar o impacto da pandemia nas comunidades quilombolas.

A Crise dos Refugiados na Europa Analisada a Partir do Pensamento de Hannah Arendt
Authors: Pires Túlio Almeida Rocha 
Published: February 2025

A partir do cenário de crises migratórias na Europa que evidenciam uma agudeza crescente da inefetividade de direitos básicos de uma parcela considerável de pessoas, questionou-se: como interpretar o agir justo do Estado a partir do pensamento de Arendt diante da questão dos refugiados? Dessa forma, a pesquisa buscou interpretar a situação dos refugiados a partir da obra intitulada Origens do Totalitarismo, de Arendt (2012). A metodologia aplicada na realização do estudo tomou a forma de uma pesquisa bibliográfica qualitativa das referências analisadas. Considerando os posicionamentos que tendem a repudiar os sujeitos em situação de refúgio nos Estados soberanos de destino, a atual conjuntura pede urgente reflexão e debate público acerca da hospitalidade com uma perspectiva humanista.

Direitos humanos e democracia no Brasil
Authors: Antoni Douglas 
Published: February 2025

A ideia central proposta neste ensaio, situa-se nas reflexões e analises das interseccionalidades entre as políticas de Direitos Humanos, democracia, e no modo que se configura as significações ontológicas na realidade material de populações e grupos sociais historicamente desfavorecidos e inferiorizados, no que concerne a conjuntura e alcance dos direitos humanos e democracia brasileira, apontando para o reconhecimento das lacunas existentes na efetividade dessas premissas, tanto quanto a noção enviesada de suas concepções, carecendo de uma profunda revisão semântica e sistemática. Pois, subjaz alicerçados em enquadres que desnutrem e cerceiam populações lidas como dissidentes, delimitando quais sujeitos que serão contemplados por esses pressupostos e os postos nas fronteiras da inumanidade e deterioração ontológica. Dada a problemática, emerge a percepção de seletividade na efetivação desses direitos e a potencialização de fraturas ontológicas. Portanto, é preciso entender as iniquidades inoculadas nas existências subalternizadas em suas matrizes históricas e suas reorganizações na modernidade.

Authors: Toledo Lly 
Published: February 2025

Apresenta-se um estudo analítico acerca do crescente poder de ingerência das Big Techs na vida do homem moderno através de plataformas digitais, o que vem fomentando um questionamento político a respeito da necessidade de regulamentação que preserve direitos e garantias fundamentais do homem. Pretende-se oferecer uma análise crítica da atuação das grandes empresas de tecnologia na realização de coleta de dados privados, através das quais realizam a construção de análise e categorização dos indivíduos com fins econômicos promovendo uma notável violação de direitos humanos. A metodologia empregada é do tipo exploratória, através da análise dos estudos a respeito dos fenômenos da digitalização no Direito. Os resultados obtidos apontam que o gerenciamento algorítmico realizado pelas Big Techs, através das plataformas digitais, promovem a coabitação de inovações tecnológicas com novas formas de degradação de direitos fundamentais, tornando a regulamentação do ambiente virtual fundamental em um Estado Democrático de Direito.

A falta do direito à educação superior inclusiva para estudantes com deficiência na Universidade Federal da Paraíba
Authors: Da Costa Cavalcanti Maria Antonia , Sousa Ismael da Costa Maria Eduarda 
Published: February 2025

Este artigo aborda as tecnologias assistivas, como a concretização da garantia à acessibilidade dentro do contexto acadêmico. A Constituição Federal Brasileira de 1988 prevê que o dever do Estado com a educação só será efetivado mediante à garantia de atendimento educacional especializado às pessoas com deficiência. Tal direito, ainda é tratado com especialidade pelo Estatuto da Pessoa com Deficiência, lei 13.146/2015. Diante dessa garantia fundamental, tecnologias de informação e de comunicação (TIC) consistem em um mecanismo crucial e universal para assegurar e promover o exercício de direitos e de liberdades fundamentais por indivíduos com deficiência. Logo, como os cursos de Direito no Brasil, de maneira geral, tradicionalmente, prevalece uma metodologia de estudo com muitos livros inacessíveis às necessidades das pessoas com deficiência, faz-se imprescindível a ampliação do uso das tecnologias abordadas.

Experimental Hemorrhage in Splenectomized and Nonsplenectomized Dogs
Authors: Dillon A. R. , Hankes G. H. , Nachreiner R. F. , Redding R. W. 
Published: February 2025

SUMMARY
Ten splenectomized and ten nonsplenectomized conscious dogs were subjected to hemorrhage of 41% of their blood volume over a 15-minute period. Hemodynamic and metabolic variables were monitored for 4 hours after hemorrhage. Mortality (100%) occurred in the splenectomized group. Significant (P < 0.001) hemodynamic responses after hemorrhage included hypotension, tachycardia, low central venous pressure, and decreased ecg voltage of the R wave. Tachypnea was noted in the absence of hypoxia, hypercapnia, and acidosis in the nonsplenectomized dogs. Significant (P < 0.0001) hypocapnia and mean Pco2 values of 13.9 mm of Hg and 23.5 mm of Hg in splenectomized and nonsplenectomized dogs, respectively, was noted. Mean hemoglobin levels were significantly (P < 0.001) decreased after hemorrhage in the splenectomized dogs. The absence of a change in hemoglobin in the nonsplenectomized dogs was attributed to the translocation of extracellular fluid into the vascular space which diluted the high concentration of rbc from splenic contraction. Other changes noted after hemorrhage were hyperglycemia, increased blood cortisol, and increased pyruvate and lactate levels. Changes were not noted in pyruvate-to-lactate ratios.

SUMMARY
The efficacy of three immunization methods for bovine anaplasmosis was tested on 88 yearling Normandy cattle which were challenge-exposed under field conditions in an enzootic zone in Colombia, South America. A total of 30 cattle were immunized (premunized) with a presumed mild Colombian isolate of Anaplasma marginale; 29 calves were vaccinated with an attenuated A marginale of ovine origin; and 29 were exposed to a virulent A marginale stabilate of Colombian origin. Twenty-nine nonvaccinated cattle served as controls. Parasitemia, packed cell volume, body weight, and complement-fixation antibody response were monitored to determine host response to challenge exposure.
The calves experienced a Babesia challenge exposure following arrival in the enzootic zone, after which a transient increase in Anaplasma parasitemia, accompanied by a decrease in packed cell volume, occurred in most of the vaccinated calves. However, neither clinical anaplasmosis nor mortality due to the disease occurred in the immunized cattle. Twenty-seven of the nonvaccinated calves had signs of clinical anaplasmosis and five (17%) died of the disease.
Caprine Mycoplasmosis: Immune Response in Goats to Mycoplasma putrefaciens After Intramammary Inoculation
Authors: Brooks D. L. , DaMassa A. J. , Adler H. E. 
Published: February 2025

SUMMARY
The primary inoculation of various doses of Mycoplasma putrefaciens into the udders of goats was followed by acute agalactia in the inoculated udder half, without involvement of the noninoculated half. Milk production either stopped or was severely curtailed in the affected half. Significant resistance to challenge exposure was demonstrable for periods up to 1 year in previously infected udders. Subsequent challenge exposures resulted in a benign pattern of disease that lasted a short period, with few organisms appearing in the milk secretions and no effect on milk yield.
