Detecção de espécies fúngicas e avaliação da produção de micotoxinas em sementes de Bixa orellana (Linnaeus, 1753) in natura comercializadas a varejo
Authors: Tiné Pereira da Silva Lucas , Machado Costa Danielle Cristina , Telles de Sá Moreira Emilio 
Published: February 2025

Os fungos quando crescem em determinados alimentos, possuem a capacidade de deteriorá-los produzindo metabólicos naturais chamados de micotoxinas. A contaminação desses alimentos acarreta diversos problemas desde o desperdício da matéria prima aos efeitos nocivos da ingestão desses alimentos, além do potencial carcinogênico, teratogênico e mutagênico que tais micotoxinas possuem. A Bixa orellana, planta conhecida popularmente como urucum, é amplamente utilizada desde a cultura indígena à indústria têxtil, alimentícia (produção de colorau) e na produção de remédios. A cor característica das sementes se dá pela presença de carotenóides, pigmentantes presentes na natureza, como a bixina, que podem desempenhar um grande papel nas ações fisiológicas auxiliando nas interações anti-inflamatórias e auxiliando nos processos lipídicos e cardíacos, além de apresentar propriedades antibacteriana e antifúngica. O presente estudo teve como objetivo realizar a análise do crescimento fúngico em sementes de Urucum, isolando e identificando os agentes infectantes. Utilizaram-se sementes de Urucum vendidas a varejo, separadas por tratamento: semente inteira não lavada, moída não lavada, inteira lavada com hipoclorito 2,5%, moída lavada com hipoclorito 2,5%. Tais sementes foram cultivadas em meio de cultivo DRCB com acompanhamento de crescimento de 24 em 24 horas. A identificação das espécies fúngicas foi dada através da utilização do método de microcultivo em lâmina. As estruturas foram classificadas em: hifas septadas ou asseptadas, hialinas ou demáceas e sua respectiva estrutura de reprodução. A determinação de espécie foi feita através da análise da estrutura de reprodução seguindo a chave de identificação. Os principais fungos encontrados foram: Aspergillus flavus e Aspergillus niger. Conclui-se que, a contaminação fúngica nos grãos de urucum está presente, tanto em amostras in natura quanto sanitizadas, salientando-se a importância de uma vigilância sanitária mais abrangente e métodos eficazes na conservação e higienização dos grãos.
O Processo de Internacionalização do Serviço Social: desafios e direção política
Authors: Yazbek Maria Carmelita 
Published: February 2025

Este ensaio crítico problematiza a internacionalização do Serviço Social brasileiro, entendendo-a como resultante do intercâmbio entre Programas de Pós-graduação, grupos de pesquisa e cursos de Serviço Social de países distintos, cujo objetivo é a produção de conhecimentos e a ampliação e qualificação do debate acadêmico e da pesquisa. Em sentido mais amplo, é fundamental situar a internacionalização como um processo político, pleno de contradições e disputas, resultantes do intercâmbio, no âmbito de uma “economia global do conhecimento”, processo com tendências globalizantes e imperialistas. Para uma análise desse processo no Brasil, devemos situar a profissão como área de produção de conhecimentos, que vem sendo construídos sobre seu processamento como especialização do trabalho coletivo, sobre as condições de vida da população com a qual trabalha e suas lutas coletivas, especialmente sobre a realidade social, econômica, política e cultural com a qual o Serviço Social estabelece interlocução.
A qualitative exploration of midwives' and ambulance clinicians' experiences working together
Authors: Humphreys Aimée , Ranganathan Meghna 
Published: February 2025

Background/Aims Effective teamwork represents a significant component of high-quality maternity care. Midwives and ambulance clinicians are sometimes required to work together in the pre-hospital setting, but these interactions are not well documented or understood. This study aimed to explore the views and experiences of clinicians, to describe the barriers to and facilitators of effective teamwork in this context. Methods Focus group discussions and in-depth interviews were conducted with 30 London-based clinicians who had experience of providing emergency maternity care in the pre-hospital setting as part of a multidisciplinary team. Data were analysed thematically, informed by principles of grounded theory. Results Three overarching themes emerged: significance of the patient environment, reaching a shared mental model and interpersonal dynamics. Challenges included conflicting priorities and lack of understanding each other's roles and skillsets. Civility and multidisciplinary training were perceived as conducive to effective teamwork. Conclusions The findings provide insight to the factors that were perceived to impact teamwork in a pre-hospital maternity context. Actions to improve patient safety include increased partnership working between acute and ambulance trusts, including the provision of multidisciplinary training. Implications for practice Midwives and ambulance clinicians report a shared goal of a safe and positive experience for the families in their care. When working towards these outcomes, teams require leadership that acknowledges the various professional remits present.

Published: February 2025

Background/Aims Asynchronous online education for midwives and nurses has become more popular, but evaluation is required to ensure quality and continuous improvement. This study aimed to evaluate six asynchronous online learning courses provided to midwives and nurses in the Republic of Ireland. Methods This descriptive study captured 1413 participants' reactions from post-programme evaluation questionnaires, which were analysed with descriptive statistics. Results There was a high level of satisfaction with the courses and most respondents preferred asynchronous online learning. Benefits were highlighted, but participants noted a lack of interaction and opportunities for questions. Conclusions Asynchronous online learning should be considered for suitable topics in nursing and midwifery. However, opportunities for interaction and questioning could be included. Implications for practice This study aids healthcare educators in online learning design and gaining support for online learning from both learners and healthcare institutions.
Exploring safeguarding midwives' experiences of caring for pregnant women with substance dependency
Authors: Moore Elaine 
Published: February 2025

Background/Aims Midwifery research exploring midwives' views and beliefs about pregnant women with substance dependency has centred on those working in clinic or hospital settings. There is little research exploring the relationship between these women and safeguarding midwives providing clinical care via a community-based midwifery-led continuity of care model. This study aimed to explore this relationship. Methods Using interpretative phenomenological analysis and visual inquiry techniques, five midwives participated in semi-structured interviews exploring their attitudes and emotions about working with women with substance dependency. Results Five superordinate themes were found: transformation, tug of war, reciprocity, proxy parenthood and the midwives' twitch Conclusions Midwives' relationships with women with substance dependency are based on partnership, honesty, trust, care and compassion. Midwives' perceptions of these women were transformed through reciprocal relationships facilitated by midwifery-led continuity of care and the women's life stories. Implications for practice Midwifery-led care models should be expanded to include women of all risk levels. Additionally, women's narratives should be included when educating student and qualified midwives about substance dependency in pregnancy.

AimsTo establish cut-off values for lateral pubofemoral distance (PFD) measurements for detecting hip dysplasia in early (four days) and standard care (six weeks) screening for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH).MethodsAll newborns, during a one-year period (October 2021 to October 2022), were offered a PFD ultrasound (US) examination in addition to the existing screening programme for DDH. Newborns who were referred for standard care hip US, suspected for DDH, received a secondary PFD US examination in conjunction with the standard care Graf/Harcke hip US examination. Receiver operating characteristic curves and empirically optimal cut-off values were calculated with a true positive defined as a Graf type ≥ IIc hip.ResultsWe included 2,735 newborns, of whom 758 received both early PFD hip US and standard care Graf/Harcke hip US. For early (four days) PFD screening, the optimal cut-off point was calculated to be 6.2 mm (95% CI 4.7 to 7.7) producing a sensitivity of 80% (95% CI 55% to 100%) and a specificity of 87% (86% to 89%). For PFD screening performed at standard care (six weeks) hip US, the optimal cut-off point was calculated to be 5.6 mm (95% CI 4.9 to 6.3) producing a sensitivity of 100% (95% CI 100% to 100%) and a specificity of 96% (95% CI 95% to 97%).ConclusionPFD US screening produces a high degree of both sensitivity and specificity for detecting DDH. Age-specific cut-off values should be used to heighten the accuracy of PFD US screening.Cite this article: Bone Jt Open 2025;6(2):119–125.

Analytical aberration theory for plane-symmetric optical systems and its application in distortion analysis of spectrometers
Authors: Liu Yuxuan , Rolland Jannick P. 
Published: February 2025

Based on a generalization of paraxial optics and wavefront aberration
expansion, we derive the aberration coefficients of main aberration types
(i.e., third-group aberrations) in plane-symmetric systems. The
derivation removes approximations used in prior work and includes
contributions from freeform surfaces and induced aberrations to reach
formulas of aberration coefficients that are widely applicable to
plane-symmetric systems. The analytical formulas of aberration
coefficients provide a good prediction of aberrations in an optical system
based on the arrangement and shapes of optical surfaces without real
raytracing. When applied to the analysis of distortion in freeform
spectrometers, the theory predicts distortion behavior consistent with
results simulated from real raytracing. The formulas of aberration
coefficients also provide useful insights on aberration balancing between
surfaces and between intrinsic and induced aberrations.
Clinical efficacy of different methods for treatment of granulomatous lobular mastitis: A systematic review and network meta-analysis
Authors: Zhou Yuxiang , Xu Leilai 
Published: February 2025

Objective
This network meta-analysis aims to evaluate the recurrence rates of various treatment options for granulomatous lobular mastitis.

Methods
We systematically searched and identified eligible studies in PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases until September 30, 2023. Original studies reporting the recurrence rates of various treatments were included. Subsequently, literature screening, data extraction, and network meta-analysis were conducted. This study was registered with PROSPERO (registration number CRD 42023434773).

Results
Nineteen articles involving 1,095 patients were included in this study. The network meta-analysis revealed that several treatment combinations reduced the recurrence rate compared to observation: Surgery + Local steroid injection + Systemic steroids therapy (OR: 0.23, 95% CI 0.01 to 4.53), Local steroid injection (OR: 0.34, 95% CI 0.02 to 6.81), Surgery + Systemic steroids therapy (OR: 0.36, 95% CI 0.02 to 5.29), Surgery + Traditional Chinese Medicine (OR: 0.33, 95% CI 0.01 to 9.11), Systemic steroids therapy + MTX (OR: 0.62, 95% CI 0.01 to 34.59), and Systemic steroids therapy + drainage (OR: 0.76, 95% CI 0.05 to 10.67). Among these, Surgery + Local steroid injection + Systemic steroids therapy demonstrated superior efficacy. The surface under cumulative ranking curve (SUCRA) values were highest for Surgery + Local steroid injection + Systemic steroids therapy (0.85), followed by Local steroid injection (0.78) and Surgery + Systemic steroids therapy (0.77).

Conclusions
Steroid-based combination therapy may be the first choice for IGM patients, with a comprehensive strategy of local and systemic steroids combined with surgery having the best effect on IGM.
The Question of the Unconstitutional Constitutional Amendment, and The Duty to Obey the Law
Authors: Erdman Shlomo Michael 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
In recent years, constitutional discourse has centred around the disqualification of modifications made to constitutions on supraconstitutional grounds rather than for a failure to meet the formal requirements for modification prescribed by the constitution and the legitimacy of judicial intervention in such modifications. The purpose of this paper is to pinpoint the theoretical and practical difficulty in accepting these doctrines in the law and to propose an alternative approach that does not allow the court to intervene unless the modification prevents the people from modifying the constitution itself or is made through undemocratic methods. The article claims that the content of the rights protected in an amendment to the constitution should not determine the constitutionality of the amendment but should be examined according to whether it is a law that should be obeyed which raises questions only in cases of harms to jus cogens principles.
Emotion profiles of Chinese secondary EFL learners: link with subjective well-being, English achievement, and demographics
Authors: Ma Lihong , Hau Kit-Tai , Liu Lixueqing , Liu Jian 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
This study employed latent profile analysis (LPA) to identify emotion profiles among foreign language (FL) learners and explored their relationship with FL achievement and subjective well-being, drawing on control-value theory. The participants included 4,109 Chinese secondary students who completed an English achievement test and online questionnaires focusing on subjective well-being and FL enjoyment, anxiety, and burnout. The LPA results indicated a four-profile model, categorized as “low enjoyment, anxiety, and burnout”, “low enjoyment with moderate anxiety and burnout”, “moderate enjoyment with low anxiety and burnout”, and “high enjoyment, anxiety, and burnout”. Four profiles showed significant differences in subjective well-being and English achievement. Notably, the group characterized by “moderate enjoyment with low anxiety and burnout” demonstrated the highest levels of subjective well-being and English achievement. In contrast, the group with “low enjoyment, anxiety, and burnout” exhibited the lowest outcomes in these areas. Additionally, the group characterized by “low enjoyment with moderate anxiety and burnout” outperformed the “high enjoyment, anxiety, and burnout” group in English achievement, despite experiencing lower subjective well-being. Significant differences in FL emotion profiles were also observed across gender, socioeconomic status, and boarding status. These findings provide valuable insights into FL instruction.

Robust multiresonant nonlocal metasurfaces by rational design
Authors: Malek Stephanie C. , Doiron Chloe F. , Brener Igal , Cerjan Alexander 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Dielectric metasurfaces supporting optical resonances have become a promising platform for quantum and nonlinear optics. However, resonant metasurfaces remain limited in their capacity to independently control the behavior of many distinct resonances despite efforts in computational optimization and inverse design. In this work, we overcome longstanding limitations by introducing a generalized rational design paradigm based on symmetry. Specifically, we use symmetry-broken metasurfaces with periodic “quadromer” lattices comprised of four nanostructures per unit cell to enable extensive control of multiple optical resonances. The rationally designed metasurfaces are readily fabricable, and we experimentally demonstrate metasurfaces that support up to four high Q-factor resonances with deliberately chosen free-space polarizations, spectral separations, and mode profiles. Our design paradigm may unlock new applications for multiresonant metasurfaces in quantum and nonlinear optics, optical sensing, and augmented reality displays.

Published: February 2025

Abstract
Growing concerns over our dependence on finite, non-renewable resources like petroleum and metals have driven the development of eco-friendly technologies centered on advanced hybrid nanomaterials. Among these, the use of renewable nanocellulose – ranging in size from 1 to 100 nm – has gained significant attention in nanotechnology research. Derived from sustainable sources, nanocellulose offers notable advantages; however, challenges persist when integrating it with metal oxide nanoparticles (MONPs). These challenges include high reactivity in cellular environments, elevated production costs, and a tendency to aggregate, leading to instability in both liquid and dry states. Aggregation can impair uniform dispersion and result in sediment formation in certain applications. A promising solution to these challenges is hybridizing MONPs with functionalized nanocellulose, a method widely adopted by researchers. This approach is cost-effective, environmentally sustainable, and produces a renewable material with low density, excellent stability, superior mechanical properties, and biocompatibility. However, several questions remain unresolved, such as the most commonly used functionalization techniques for MONPs hybridization, the underlying mechanisms, and the specific benefits of this hybridization. Based on current findings, oxidation and carboxymethylation emerge as the most frequently used functionalization techniques for hybridizing MONPs with nanocellulose. These processes introduce carboxylic acid and carboxymethyl groups, respectively, which act as capping agents that readily bond with MONPs. This results in high degrees of substitution (DS) and improved nanoparticle dispersion. Furthermore, hybridization enhances properties such as thermal stability, UV protection, antibacterial activity, adsorption capacity, and mechanical performance, underscoring its potential for diverse applications.
