O endividamento e a inadimplência são temas que se encontram em intensa análise e pesquisa na academia e fazem parte do cotidiano da população, principalmente em pequenos municípios. A literatura mostra que não são apenas os fatores socioeconômicos que apresentam impacto no nível de endividamento e inadimplência do indivíduo; outras variáveis demográficas e, principalmente, traços de personalidades, também tendem a explicar essa realidade do consumidor. Diante do exposto, o objetivo principal deste trabalho foi identificar os fatores determinantes do endividamento e da inadimplência dos bancários da cidade de Teófilo Otoni – MG. O estudo é de caráter quantitativo, por meio de uma pesquisa de campo em uma amostra de 56 indivíduos, onde as hipóteses apresentadas no modelo teórico foram baseadas no estudo de Silva, Vieira e Faia (2012). Com o intuito de atingir o objetivo utilizou-se duas técnicas multivariadas para a análise: a Análise Fatorial Exploratória e a Regressão Linear Múltipla. Os resultados do trabalho apontaram que o materialismo se constituiu como um dos fatores preditivos para o endividamento e a inadimplência. Associado a essa evidência, o autocontrole se apresentou como um inibidor da inadimplência. Esses resultados revelaram que o construto autocontrole foi um aspecto relevante, inferindo-se que o fato de poupar dinheiro, diminui consideravelmente a chance da inadimplência.

Published: May 2023

Muitas pesquisas têm comparado a diferença do desempenho econômico de produtores agrícolas orgânicos certificados e não certificados, mas eles apresentam resultados divergentes. Alguns desses trabalhos corrigiram o viés de seleção devido às variáveis observáveis, porém, nenhum deles tratou adequadamente a questão do viés relativo às variáveis não observáveis. Neste estudo se aplica o método Propensity Score Matching para corrigir o viés das variáveis observáveis, e a técnica recentemente desenvolvida por Millimet e Tchernis (2010) para corrigir o viés que surge do não atendimento ao pressuposto da independência condicional (CIA). Foram utilizados os dados do Censo Agropecuário (IBGE, 2006) da agricultura familiar no Brasil, com 71.189 observações. Os resultados confirmaram a hipótese da pesquisa, revelando que os agricultores familiares brasileiros certificados possuem 10% a mais em sua renda e cerca de 30% a mais no lucro, além de terem maior integração com o mercado.

Authors: Wadhwani Udita , Savaliya Dhara , Desai Purvi 
Published: May 2023

Introduction: Abdominal masses are commonly encountered in the pediatric population, with a broad differential diagnosis that encompasses benign and malignant entities. The main goal of abdominal imaging in the context of a suspected pediatric abdominal mass is to confirm its presence, as nonneoplastic entities can mimic an abdominal mass, and to detect specific imaging findings that narrow the differential diagnosis. Computed Tomography (CT) is currently the most powerful and versatile imaging procedure for the evaluation of abdominal masses It plays an important role in characterizing the mass and extent of disease and assisting in presurgical planning [1].
Aim: The purpose of this article is to describe the role of CT imaging in evaluation of pediatric abdominal masses.
Materials and Methods: Five case reports of abdominal masses in pediatric age group have been discussed.
All the five patients underwent CT scan on Philips brilliance 256 slice machine.
CT imaging findings with their histopathological diagnosis have been described.
Case Summary:
Case 1 :Wilm’s tumor
Case 2 : Rhabdomyosarcoma
Case 3 : Ewing’s sarcoma of sacrum
Case 4 : Germ cell tumor of ovary
Case 5 : Pelvic myxoid chondrosarcoma
Conclusion: Abdominal masses in the pediatric age group include a spectrum of lesions of diverse origin and significance. CT imaging plays a key role in defining the characteristics and extent of mass lesions found in infants and children. Imaging with histopathological correlation can be very helpful in the management of the patient.
Behind the Uniform: Police Violence and Abuse after #Endsars Protests in Nigeria (2021-2023)
Authors: Chinedu Ukachukwu Chukwuma 
Published: May 2023

Violence and abuse by those behind uniforms, especially the Nigeria Police, have continued to occupy a position of prime concern to Nigerians. Despite being a critical instrument relied on by the government in ensuring social control and enhancing governance, the Nigeria Police continues to receive prime attention from the Nigerian citizenry. This became very concentrated after the #EndSARS protests of October, 2020, that sought far-reaching police reforms. This study primarily explores police violence and abuse in Nigeria after the #EndSARS protests. Informed by the nature of the research problem, this study adopted the library research method and documentary evidence collected was subjected to detailed examination. The Social Conflict Theory and the Routine Activities Theory were adopted for analysis. The study found that police violence and abuse remain rampant in Nigeria because the police continue to work to preserve the status quo of inequality and exploitation in Nigeria. This situation is escalating despite the commitment of Nigeria to various treaties and international protocols which prohibit the application of violence and abuse in police work. The prospect of effective and efficient policing of Nigeria lies in closing the inequality gap in the Nigerian society. This will create the requisite environment that will enable the transformation of the Nigeria Police to an institution that eschews violence and abuse and is able to protect citizens.

Published: May 2023

ImportanceLeft ventricular conduction disease predicts heart failure and death, and the only strategies to mitigate its effects involve implantation of a permanent pacemaker. There are currently no proven preventive strategies for this common condition.ObjectiveTo determine the association between targeting intensive blood pressure (BP) control and the risk of developing left ventricular conduction disease.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsThis was a post hoc analysis of the 2-arm multicenter Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial (SPRINT), which recruited participants from 102 sites in the US and Puerto Rico and was conducted from November 2010 until August 2015. Adults 50 years and older with hypertension and at least 1 other cardiovascular risk factor were included. Participants with baseline left ventricular conduction disease, ventricular pacing, or ventricular pre-excitation were excluded for the current analysis. Data were analyzed from November 2021 to November 2022.InterventionParticipants were randomly assigned to a systolic BP target of less than 140 mm Hg (standard treatment group) or less than 120 mm Hg (intensive treatment group).Main OutcomeThe primary outcome was incident left ventricular conduction disease, including any fascicular or left bundle-branch block, assessed by serial electrocardiography. Incident right bundle-branch block was examined as a negative control.ResultsAmong 3918 participants randomized to standard treatment and 3956 to intensive treatment (mean [SD] age, 67.6 [9.2] years; 2815 [36%] female) monitored for a median [IQR] 3.5 (0.02-5.2) years, 203 developed left ventricular conduction disease. Older age (hazard ratio per 10-year increase [HR], 1.42; 95% CI, 1.21-1.67; P &amp;lt; .001), male sex (HR, 2.31; 95% CI, 1.63-3.32; P &amp;lt; .001), and cardiovascular disease (HR, 1.46; 95% CI, 1.06-2.00; P = .02) were associated with a higher risk of left ventricular conduction disease. Assignment to intensive treatment was associated with a 26% lower risk of left ventricular conduction disease (HR, 0.74; 95% CI, 0.56-0.98; P = .04). These results persisted when incident ventricular pacing was included in the outcome and when considering all-cause death as a competing risk. In contrast, no association between randomization assignment and right bundle-branch block was observed (HR, 0.95; 95% CI, 0.71-1.27; P = .75).Conclusions and RelevanceIn this study, targeting intensive BP control was associated with lower risk of left ventricular conduction disease in a randomized clinical trial, suggesting that clinically relevant conduction disease may be preventable.Trial RegistrationClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01206062
Role of CPNE1 in Odontoblastic Differentiation of Rat Stem Cells from Apical Papilla
Authors: Lu Xi , Xie Han , Ju Yanqin , Fu Yunyu , Liu Shangfeng , Zhao Shouliang 
Published: May 2023

AbstractCPNE1 is a calcium‐dependent, phospholipid‐binding protein that is ubiquitously expressed in various tissues and organs. This study investigates the expression and localization of CPNE1 in tooth germ development and the role of CPNE1 in odontoblastic differentiation. In rat tooth germs, CPNE1 is expressed in the odontoblasts and ameloblasts since the late bell stage. The depletion of CPNE1 in the stem cells from apical papilla (SCAPs) clearly inhibits the expression of odontoblastic‐related genes and the formation of mineralized nodules during differentiation, while CPNE1 overexpression promotes this process. In addition, CPNE1 overexpression increases AKT phosphorylation during the odontoblastic differentiation of SCAPs. Furthermore, treatment with AKT inhibitor (MK2206) reduces the expression of odontoblastic‐related genes in CPNE1 over‐expressed SCAPs, and Alizarin Red staining shows reduced mineralization. These results suggest that CPNE1 plays a role in the tooth germ development as well as the odontblastic differentiation of SCAPs in vitro that is related to the AKT signaling pathway.

AbstractIron–nitrogen–carbon (FeNC) materials have emerged as a promising alternative to platinum‐group metals for catalyzing the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in proton‐exchange‐membrane fuel cells. However, their low intrinsic activity and stability are major impediments. Herein, an FeN–C electrocatalyst with dense FeN4 sites on hierarchically porous carbons with highly curved surfaces (denoted as FeN4‐hcC) is reported. The FeN4‐hcC catalyst displays exceptional ORR activity in acidic media, with a high half‐wave potential of 0.85 V (versus reversible hydrogen electrode) in 0.5 m H2SO4. When integrated into a membrane electrode assembly, the corresponding cathode displays a high maximum peak power density of 0.592 W cm−2 and demonstrates operating durability over 30 000 cycles under harsh H2/air conditions, outperforming previously reported Fe–NC electrocatalysts. These experimental and theoretical studies suggest that the curved carbon support fine‐tunes the local coordination environment, lowers the energies of the Fe d‐band centers, and inhibits the adsorption of oxygenated species, which can enhance the ORR activity and stability. This work provides new insight into the carbon nanostructure–activity correlation for ORR catalysis. It also offers a new approach to designing advanced single‐metal‐site catalysts for energy‐conversion applications.
Rigidity‐Mediated Afterglow Tuning of Small Molecules in Polymer Matrix through Photoinitiated Solvent‐Free Copolymerization

Published: May 2023

AbstractThe ability to tune afterglow attributes of organic materials can largely extend their utility in the field of lifetime‐encoded security applications. Herein, the tuning of afterglow intensity and lifetime of molecule emitters after being doped into copolymer by photoinitiated solvent‐free copolymerization are reported. The molar ratio adjustment of 2‐hydroxyethyl acrylate and 2‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate in copolymerization allows systematic tuning of the rigidity of the resultant copolymers by occupying the free volume through methyl groups, enabling controlled stabilization of the in situ generated triplet excitons of the doped molecule emitters via effectively decreasing vibrational energy dissipation. With the use of this strategy, the green afterglow for 2,3‐naphthalenedicarboxylic anhydride can be tuned with a lifetime from 170.1 to 1258.6 ms, accompanied by a 76‐fold intensity enhancement. Furthermore, this strategy can be extended to tune multicolor afterglow materials through the choice of molecule dopants. When combined with digital light processing printing, the strategy allows for the facile fabrication of lifetime‐encoded complex 3D objects with high precisions for security applications.
