Published: December 2023

Que as novas tecnologias, como resultado da mundialização da economia e da globalização digital, exigem processos dialógicos, pautados em fatos e focados em resultados e debate, é o que diz a dialética. Para tanto, este estudo objetiva compreender as políticas públicas, no seu sentido mais amplo, que ultrapassem a questão partidária e representativa de grupos políticos e objetiva pensar as políticas públicas x novas tecnologias, com os seus processos dialógicos, para cumprimento das metas impostas pela legislação (lei 13.005/2014). O artigo enfatiza ainda a compreensão da aplicação de diretrizes de governança na educação brasileira, com o objetivo de focar nas possibilidades e necessidades que a educação deste século depende, além de observar a aplicação de tais diretrizes voltadas ao ensino tecnológico, que vem se acentuando nas práticas sociais da contemporaneidade, seja nos aspectos que envolvem a governança digital, quanto na prestação de serviços, voltados à educação. A pesquisa estende-se a enfatizar as necessidades de implementação da e-governance respaldada as competências informacionais e digitais necessárias a uma população ainda carente de acesso às Tecnologias da Informação e da Comunicação, habilidades do letramento, que surgem no âmbito da educação brasileira, com maior evidência no período de emergência em saúde global no qual ainda se vive os reflexos. Nesta seara a ciência se torna uma aliada na busca de soluções para a convivência social plena.
Metabolism of alimentary compounds by the intestinal microbiota and consequences for gut health
Authors: Blachier Francois , Kong Xiangfeng 
Published: December 2023

The intestinal microbiota in the mammalian large intestine metabolizes numerous alimentary compounds that are not digested and absorbed in the small intestine. By doing so, microbiota produces metabolites that accumulate in the luminal fluid. Several bacterial metabolites have been shown to be involved in communication between microbes and to act on the colonic epithelial cell metabolism and physiology. In fact, effects of bacterial metabolites on energy metabolism in colonic epithelial cells, water and electrolyte movements across the colonic epithelium, and epithelial renewal and barrier function have been reported. In this review, the consequences of such interkingdom metabolic interactions are summarized by presenting typical examples of bacterial metabolites that are known to affect communication between intestinal microbes and/or between microbes and the intestinal epithelial cells. Current studies indicate that the bacterial metabolites derived from alimentary compounds affect the colonic epithelial cells either positively or negatively. These findings pave the way for further experimental and clinical studies aiming at establishing what can be done in terms of alimentary intervention to optimize host-microbe communication for beneficial effects on gut health.

Published: December 2023

Background: Long-term consumption of a high-fat diet (HFD) causes obesity and is a risk factor for depression. The HFD has a significant impact on the gut microbiota, and dysbiosis of the microbiota is now associated with certain psychiatric disorders such as anxiety and depression. We aimed to investigate whether modulation by antibiotic treatment of the composition of the gut microbiota in diet-induced obese (DIO) C57BL/6J male mice has an impact on depressive-like behaviour.
Methods: In this study, we have analysed the effects of a 15 weeks HFD on helplessness assessed in the forced swim test and anhedonia assessed in the sucrose preference test. Two weeks before the start of the behavioural tests, a group of HFD mice were given a combination of two non-absorbable antibiotics, neomycin and polymyxin B.
Results: In DIO mice, anhedonia and significant changes in the composition of the gut microbiota at the phyla and family level were observed. On the other hand, there was no significant effect of HFD on the peripheral inflammatory profile. In DIO mice, antibiotic treatment resulted in very pronounced alteration in the composition of the gut microbiota, without any change in anhedonia behaviour.
Conclusion: In DIO mice, only four families of bacteria were not affected in their relative abundance by the antibiotic treatment, the Bifidobacteriaceae, Erysipelotrichaceae, Rikenellaceae and Streptococcaceae. This stability concomitant with that of anhedonia suggests that these families may be involved in anhedonia in DIO mice.

Authors: Mauck Clinton Ross , Robertson Jyothi Vinnakota , Vincent Marjorie Robin 
Published: December 2023

Introduction: In the age of Big Data, the animal welfare industry stands to benefit from data-driven decision making, particularly in commercial dog breeding. Despite its potential, many organizations and regulatory bodies, such as the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), face significant challenges in organizing and using it effectively. The existing challenges limit the extent to which the vast amount of data collected by the USDA can be used to improve regulatory oversight and promote animal welfare. This study explored the potential of leveraging publicly-available inspection report data to inform animal welfare standards and identify areas of improvement.
Methods: We formulated an innovative approach for extracting, cleaning, and structuring data from the Public Search Tool (PST) database. Our approach involved the use of customized web-scraping tools and data manipulation techniques, including automatic data retrieval, transformation of inspection reports into a text-friendly format, and pattern recognition for collating pertinent data elements. We conducted descriptive statistical analyses on the assembled dataset to set the stage for a comprehensive exploration of inspection reports from Class ‘A’ commercial dog breeding facilities.
Results: Our study produced an extensive dataset detailing compliance with animal welfare standards at Class ‘A’ commercial dog breeding facilities across the United States from 2014 to 2023. Preliminary analysis revealed prevalent areas of non-compliance, such as inadequate veterinary care and substandard housing conditions. The dataset facilitated a deep analysis of animal welfare practices within the commercial dog breeding industry, providing insights across geographical locations and facility sizes.
Conclusion: Our study underscores the potential of harnessing Big Data to inform regulatory decisions and improve animal welfare within commercial dog breeding. It introduces a method to transform publicly available data into an accessible format. This allows us to go beyond anecdotal evidence into comprehensive assessments, facilitating constructive dialogue and effective policy-making. Further research leveraging advancements is recommended to deepen insights and encourage collaborative efforts to elevate animal welfare standards.

Prediction of shear strength of corrosion reinforced concrete beams using Artificial Neural Network
Authors: Asteris Panagiotis G. , Nguyen Thuy-Anh 
Published: December 2023

The shear strength of corroded reinforced concrete (CRC) beams is a critical consideration during the design stages of RC structures. In this study, we propose a machine learning technique for estimating the shear strength of CRC beams across a range of service periods. To do this, we gathered 158 CRC beam shear tests and used Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to create a forecast model for the considered output. Twelve input variables indicate the geometrical and material properties, reinforcing parameters, and the degree of corrosion in the beam, whereas the shear strength is the output considered. The database is designed to employ 70 percent of the data point to train the model and 30 percent to assess the performance. The model makes outstanding predictions, according to the results, with an R2 value of 0.989. In addition, five empirical shear strength models in the literature are utilized to test the suggested ANN model, demonstrating that the new model performs much better. With any given service period, the suggested time-dependent prediction model can offer the shear strength of CRC beams.

Published: December 2023

Context Intravenous (IV) to oral (PO) transition of antimicrobial therapy is a common antimicrobial stewardship activity. Inpatient institutions seeking to create new IV to PO switch services or enhance existing services may benefit from a review of practices utilized at other institutions. Objective The objective of this review is to summarize IV to PO switch practices utilized by healthcare institutions with established antimicrobial stewardship programs across Kentucky. Methods The Kentucky Antimicrobial Stewardship Innovation Consortium (KASIC) invited pharmacists on the Advisory Board to share current IV to PO switch practices utilized at their institutions. The submitted documents were evaluated in a systematic approach and summarized. Results Nine of ten institutions represented by the Advisory Board submitted an IV to PO switch practice document for analysis. All institutions utilized pharmacist-driven protocols to allow automatic conversion from IV to PO for select antimicrobials based on specific patient criteria. All protocols included the following antimicrobials eligible for conversion: azithromycin, doxycycline, fluconazole, levofloxacin, linezolid, and metronidazole. Majority of protocols also had inclusion and exclusion criteria based on patient specific factors such as ability to use the enteral route, clinical stability, and infection type. There was variation in the level of restriction placed on conversion eligibility criteria among protocols. Conclusion IV to PO switch practices for antimicrobials vary across the state of Kentucky. Institutions should tailor protocols based on specific needs, clinical leadership support, and feasibility of implementation.
Boundary Element Method Analysis of 3D Effects and Free-Surface Proximity on Hydrofoil Lift and Drag Coefficients in Varied Operating Conditions
Authors: Nicolas Hugo , Perali Paolo , Sacher Matthieu , Bot Patrick 
Published: December 2023

_
The use of hydrofoils to enhance ship performance raises the scientific issue of free-surface proximity, which is important to consider during the design stage, to feed velocity prediction programs, for instance. Typically, the flow over a shallowly submerged hydrofoil is characterized by the Froude number, the submergence depth-to-chord ratio, the angle of attack, and geometric parameters of the lifting surface. Among these parameters, the present paper investigates the influence of the wing aspect ratio on the lift and drag coefficients of hydrofoils operating near a free surface. For this purpose, rectangular wings with an H105 profile at 2° angle of attack and aspect ratios ranging from 4 to 20 are systematically analyzed using a 3D boundary element method. The free surface is modeled using a linearized Neumann-Kelvin boundary condition. Chord-based Froude numbers of 0.5, 1.1, and 6.3 are studied. The submersion depth is swept between 0.1 and 30 times the foil chord length. The evolution of the normalized lift and drag coefficients with respect to the foil submersion and the aspect ratio is discussed in detail. Flow velocity is shown to play a significant role in the evolution of the lift and drag coefficients with submersion depth, close to the free surface, for all the aspect ratios. Its influence gets reduced by moving away from the free surface. The critical submersion depth, where the free-surface effects cease, is found to increase with higher flow velocity and aspect ratio. Furthermore, both positive and negative correlations between the force coefficients and the aspect ratio are identified, depending on the operating conditions. It is found that when the proximity to the free surface either enhances or impairs a force coefficient relative to its value in unbounded flow, increasing the aspect ratio amplifies this effect. Overall, this study confirms the effectiveness of steady boundary element methods for simulating the flow around hydrofoil wings in the vicinity of a free surface and contributes to further understanding the influence of geometric parameters on hydrofoil performance.
