Authors: Lopes Tarsila Teixeira Vilhena , Souto Bernardino Geraldo Alves 
Published: August 2022

Esta pesquisa foi aprovada pelo Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa com Seres Humanos, mediante o protocolo CAAE n. 10830012.7.0000.5504, e teve o objetivo levantar e descrever a percepção espontânea de um conjunto de adultos sobre sua não adesão aos cuidados primários de saúde bucal. Trata-se de um estudo qualitativo que, em março de 2013, gravou 14 entrevistas feitas por um único entrevistador. Todos os participantes elegíveis e acessíveis foram entrevistados. O critério de elegibilidade foi pessoas de ambos os sexos que tinham mais de 18 anos e haviam faltado sem justificativa a pelo menos três consultas odontológicas ou abandonado o acompanhamento em uma Unidade de Saúde da Família do município de São Carlos, São Paulo. Foi feita análise do conteúdo temático sobre 11 destas entrevistas devido à saturação dos achados a partir da décima primeira e a interpretação das falas se baseou na filosofia humanista-existencial-personalista. Foram identificadas duas categorias temáticas: Concepções sobre saúde bucal e Práticas de cuidado; a última foi distribuída em duas subcategorias: Medo e Relação profissional-usuário. Encontrou-se que a negligência em relação à atenção odontológica pode ter origem na compreensão da pessoa de que a saúde bucal se restringe à ausência de sintomas dentários, no medo do tratamento e numa postura profissional menos afeita ao cuidado centrado na pessoa. Portanto, é necessário que o processo de cuidado considere a saúde bucal contextualizada no indivíduo em seu ambiente de crenças e percepções, e articule este contexto no projeto terapêutico.

Abstract
The one-dimensional premixed laminar freely propagating flame was used to numerically simulate the laminar combustion characteristics of primary reference fuel (PRF). The equivalence ratios are set as 0.7–1.5 at initial temperatures of 298, 358, and 403 K, initial pressures of 1, 2, and 5 atm. Laminar burning velocity (LBV), adiabatic flame temperature (AFT) and mole fractions of H, CO, CO2, C2H4 at Φ = 1.0 are investigated. Meanwhile, temperature sensitivity, rate of production (ROP) and reaction pathway are analyzed. The results show that LBV and AFT decrease with n-heptane doping ratios increasing. With the increase of initial temperatures, the LBV and AFT increase. With the increase of initial pressures, the LBV decreases, while AFT increases slightly. Through temperature sensitivity analysis, it can be found that R1 H + O2 ⇔ O + OH and R97 OH + CO⇔ H + CO2 are main exothermic reactions. R12 H + OH + M ⇔ H2O + M and R56 H + CH3(+M) ⇔ CH4(+M) are major endothermic reactions. n-Heptane is decomposed into C2H4 and C2H3, and iso-octane is decomposed into CH3, CH3O, and CH2O. These small molecule species are further oxidized to generate HCO, which is finally changed into CO2.

Abstract

Objectives
To evaluate the effect of incorporating calcium advice into early pregnancy counseling on calcium intake during pregnancy in the Netherlands.

Methods
A multicenter prospective before-after cohort study was conducted introducing risk-based care including calculating individual pre-eclampsia risk. Part of the intervention was to incorporate calcium advice into routine counseling. We calculated individual daily calcium intake and adequacy of calcium intake (≥1,000 mg/day) at 16, 24 and 34 weeks of pregnancy. We performed a multiple logistic regression adjusting for covariates to identify any differences in the risk of inadequate calcium intake between RC and CAC.

Results
In regular care (RC, 2013–2015, n=2,477) 60% had inadequate calcium intake, compared to 49% during calcium advice care (CAC, 2017–2018, n=774) (aOR 0.75, 95% CI 0.64–0.88). Specific calcium supplements were used by 2% and 29% in RC and CAC, respectively (OR 25.1, 95% CI 17.8–36.0). Determinants of an inadequate calcium intake were lower age (aOR per additional year 0.96, 95% CI: 0.94–0.98), nulliparity (aOR 1.22, 95% CI: 1.03–1.45) and non-Caucasian origin (aOR 1.83, 95% CI 1.09–3.09). In CAC, risk of inadequate intake decreased with increasing predicted pre-eclampsia risk, which was a trend reversal compared to RC.

Conclusions
Incorporating calcium advice into early pregnancy counseling was shown to lead to a decrease in the risk of inadequate calcium intake during pregnancy, but still inadequate intake in half of the women suggesting the need for further study on improving implementation. Awareness of individual increased PE risk had positive effect on calcium intake.

Published: August 2022

Introducción. Los sensores remotos ofrecen la capacidad de observar un objeto sin estar en contacto con el mismo, son utilizados en aplicaciones para la agricultura y tienen un gran potencial de desarrollo para el cultivo del banano (Musa AAA). Durante las últimas décadas las investigaciones en sensores remotos y agricultura se han incrementado gracias a la disponibilidad de imágenes satelitales de alta resolución y al uso de vehículos aéreos no tripulados que generan información base para las investigaciones. Objetivo. Realizar una revisión general sobre las aplicaciones del uso de sensores remotos para el cultivo del banano en tres aspectos específicos: determinación del área de cultivo, estimación de su productividad y en el diagnóstico de enfermedades. Desarrollo. Las áreas de plantaciones comerciales de banano son de fácil detección visual o por medio clasificaciones de imágenes, como con las imágenes del radar de abertura sintética (SAR), que pueden alcanzar presiones superiores al 95 %. Esto debido a la alta retrodispersión de las hojas grandes de la planta. No obstante, los estudios realizados en cuanto a productividad son escasos para el cultivo de banano y se han limitado al uso de índices de vegetación, con resultados bajos en sus correlaciones. En cuanto la identificación de enfermedades, se ha trabajado en las principales que afectan la producción con niveles de correlación superiores al 90 % para algunas enfermedades. Conclusión. La presente revisión evidencia que las plantaciones bananeras pueden ser delimitadas mediante el uso de sensores remotos y, de igual forma, estos permiten la identificación de las principales enfermedades en el cultivo. Sin embargo, los resultados obtenidos para determinar productividad son escasos y con poca precisión.

Apart from knowledge and skills, attitudes also shape the overall competency of a medical graduate. Quiz based learning is a refreshing way of implementing competency based exercises in Pharmacology. To assess the attitude of second year MBBS students and obtain feedback about pharmacology quiz. Fifty-four second year MBBS students were included in the study and divided into 6 groups of 9 each. A well-designed questionnaire with ten statements was used to assess the attitude of the students, responses were recorded as five point Likert scale and scored on a scale of 1 to 5 (strongly agree:5, agree:4, neutral:3, disagree:2 and strongly disagree:1). Mean score for each statement was graded (mean score &#62;3: positive attitude, score =3: neutral; score&#60;3: negative). The students had an overall positive attitude towards the quiz (mean attitude scores for all the statements was &#62;3). They found quiz interesting (mean score: 4.71 ±0.48), allowed for healthy competition and teamwork (mean score: 4.58 ±0.60), as a refreshing way of learning and breaks the monotony (mean score: 4.47±0.79), improved student-teacher interaction (mean score: 4.48±0.69). Students’ feedback showed (indicated as strongly agree/agree: n, %): rounds in the quiz were interesting (52, 96%), allowed for fair chance of participation for all (45, 83%), improved peer-interaction (50,92%), helpful for examinations (52,95%) especially for viva-voce (34,63%). Crossword (21, 38%), rapid fire (10, 21%), identification of Adverse drug reactions (9, 16%) and jigsaw puzzle (5, 9%) were the favorite rounds for the students. Students had a positive attitude and feedback was encouraging. Quiz improves peer interaction, decision-making, confidence, analytical skills, working under pressure and effective communication, regular quiz exercises and assessments can be an effective competency based learning tool for medical undergraduates.

The article represents the dynamics and composition of the US population in the 21st Century, as well as major characteristics of the American labor force. It is shown how the demographic composition of population has been changing since 2017 until 2060, the conclusion is made that the US population is aging.
The labor force composition mostly represents the changing structure of the US population. The industrial structure of the labor force is continuing changes in favor of service sector and in favor of highly technological industries. As for occupational structure one can see the growth of share of brainwork in contrast to manual labor.
In racial and ethnic composition of labor force the data demonstrate the dominance of white Americans (77%), followed by Hispanics (18%), Blacks (12%) and Asians (6%).
Women play the more significant role in the labor force primarily because of their growing labor participation. The current share of women in the labor force is close to 50%.

Objectives: Physician satisfaction with their job can lead to a better quality of care, fewer chances of making errors, and better patient outcomes. The purpose of the study was to examine physician satisfaction; and to assess job satisfaction across several factors, such as quality of care, ease of practice, relationship with leadership, and inter-professional collaboration. Method: A descriptive cross-sectional design was used. Data were collected between July 2019 and January 2020. Participants provided demographic information and completed surveys related to physician satisfaction (13-item Likert type items on a scale from 1 to 5), and inter-professional collaboration (15-item, 4-point Likert scale, ranging from 1 for “strongly disagree” to 4 for “strongly agree”). Multiple linear regressions were used to determine the relationship between overall job satisfaction and demographic features and inter-professional collaboration. Results: Out of 396 physicians who were contacted, 354 responded (response rate = 89.4%). The median age was 40 years, and there were 208 male and 124 female physicians. The vast majority (238/354 = 62%) were expatriates. Seventy percent had a post-graduate degree. The vast majority (308 = 87%) worked in government hospitals. Results showed that 15 (5%) of the physicians were not satisfied with their job (<3.00), 179 (40%) expressed a moderate level of satisfaction (3.00 – 3.75), and 129 (55%) were highly satisfied (>3.76). There was no difference in mean job satisfaction score among different groups of study participants, except for gender, and the working grade (p < 0.05). The overall job satisfaction rates were higher for the quality of care (M = 3.93, SD = 0.61), and for ease of practice (M = 3.89, SD = 0.55) and lower for the relationship with leadership (M = 3.67, SD = 0.86). Having a clinical postgraduate degree together with a PhD, a senior level of responsibility and good inter-professional relationship were associated with higher job satisfaction rates (p = 0.003 and 0.007, respectively). Conclusion: Overall, the job satisfaction rate was high. There was no difference among different groups of study participants, except for the working grade. Having a clinical postgraduate degree, a senior level of responsibility, and good inter-professional relationship were associated with higher job satisfaction rates. The overall job satisfaction rates were higher for the quality of care, and for ease of practice, and lower for relationship with the leadership. Relationship with the leadership is a modifiable factor and efforts at enhancing the physician-leadership relationship may lead to even higher satisfaction rates.

The realities that Ukraine faces today, namely, the full-scale war with the imposition of martial law on the territory of the whole country, led to a number of discussions arising around the effective but safe conducting of the education process at universities and other educational establishments and concerned the organization and proper management of the students` learning process. Despite the previous experience of distance and blended learning modes implemented during the Covid 19 period, it should be noted that some aspects of the organization of the educational process require reconsidering, taking into account the new experience of studying in wartime and the need to regard the emotional tension of students, especially those caught up in the temporarily occupied territories. A survey was conducted among the students of the National Technical University of Ukraine "I. Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute" with the aim to reveal and analyze the level of technical students` adaptation to learning a foreign language in extreme conditions and the relevance of tools and methods the teachers have been applying on their ESL lessons. Among the outcomes, it`s worth mentioning the non-fading motivation of students to learn foreign language, increased cross-cultural communication, and mostly high-level accommodation to distance learning mode. It was interesting to find out that students expressed unwillingness to discuss war and relevant news in the ESL lessons and are having issues with managing their academic study time. All the results obtained provide the ground for further reconsidering of the curricula to better meet the students' educational needs.
