REFLEXÕES SOBRE AS AULAS DE EDUCAÇÃO FISICA
Authors: Gonçalves Maria Augusta Salin 
Published: January 2022

Grande parte dos professores questiona-se sobre o sentido do seu papel, buscando encontrar princípios válidos que orientem as suas pra ticas educativas. Existem teorias de ensino, muitas propostas metodológicas, que freqüentemente são utilizadas pelos professores para orientar a sua ação pedagógica. A decisão por uma ou por outra metodologia, muitas vezes, é influenciada por modismos, sendo as diferentes alternativas adotadas sem uma reflexão crítica. São como que impostas de fora pa ra dentro, sendo por isso incapazes de orientar de forma efetiva os procedimentos concretos do professor em sala de aula. Partimos do princípio que as práticas pedagógicas do professor realmente serão consistentes e autênticas, se estiverem enraizadas na sua concepção de ser humano, vida e sociedade. Por isso consideramos importante que o professor busque, através de leituras e reflexões, encontrar princípios válidos que orientem a sua ação pedagógica.

Published: January 2022

Background: Allergic Rhinitis (AR) is one of the inflammatory diseases of the nasal mucosa, caused by immunoglobulin E (IgE) after allergens exposure, Severity measurement of the AR symptoms can be conducted subjectively by counting the total nasal symptom score (TNSS) and objectively by counting the serum IgE levels. Vitamin D (VD) plays a significant part in inborn and adaptive immunity; however, this is not completely understood. It is reported that over 900 genes are regulated by VD. The aim of this study is to assess the role of VD supplementation in AR.
Methods: This prospective randomized controlled study was carried out on 90 patients Test group (n = 45): received standard medications and supplementation of oral VD3 (cholecalciferol; 1000 IU) for 3 months. Control group (n = 45): received standard medications without supplementation of oral VD3.
Results: Comparison between both groups showed insignificant difference between both groups in VD level at the start of the study. According to TNSS in test group, there was significant improvement after 3 months compared to before the study. According to TNSS in control group, there was significant improvement after 3 months than before the study. There was significant improvement in test group than control group as regard to TNSS after 3 months.
Conclusions: There was highly significant reduction in the TNSS after VD supplementation. Thus, VD supplementation alters the course of AR towards clinical improvement.

Authors: Argawu Alemayehu Siffir 
Published: January 2022

Introduction: In Africa region on the date of December 09, 2021 at 14:46 GMT, the total cumulative cases of COVID-19 was 8,889,437 with total deaths and total recoveries of 224,731 (2.5% of death rate) and 8,185,382 (92% of recovery rate) respectively. Thus, this study aimed modelling and forecasting of COVID-19 new cases in top seven infected African countries using time series models.
Methods: The top seven infected African countries COVID-19 new cases dataset was taken from our World COVID-19 dataset. The study period was from February 14 to September 06, 2020. Different time series models were used for modelling and forecasting of COVID-19 new cases data. Models comparisons were done by normalized BIC, root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), and R-squared values.
Results: The COVID-19 new cases data of Algeria, Egypt, Ethiopia, Morocco, and South Africa were fitted by ARIMA (0,1,0), ARIMA (0,1,0), Damped trend, Brown, and ARIMA (0,1,14) models in the study period, respectively. Whereas Ghana, and Nigeria COVID-19 new cases data were followed by simple exponential smoothing models. The 95% confidence levels for lowest to highest forecasted COVID-19 new cases were 258 to 197 with decreasing trend in Algeria, 63 to 933 with increasing trend in Egypt, 636 to 2,141 with increasing trend in Ethiopia, 0 to 1,022 with constant trend in Ghana, 1,900 to 2,807 with increasing trend in Morocco, 0 to 543 with constant trend in Nigeria, and 2,056 to 2,444 with increasing trend in South Africa for the next one month (from September 7 to October 6, 2020).

Correlation of Salivary Cortisol Levels with Anxiety in Type II Diabetes Mellitus Patients before and after Complete Denture Rehabilitation - An in vivo Study
Authors: Bansod Akansha Vilas , Pisulkar Sweta Kale 
Published: January 2022

Background: Complete edentulism constitutes health care burden, resulting in alterations in physical, psychological and emotional behavior. Also, a reduction in quality of life is expressed by patients, raising their levels of stress and anxiety. Stressful situations cause increased blood pressure and heart rate resulting in the secretion of cortisol hormone, which stimulates gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis causing hyperglycemia, which may favor the occurrence of Diabetes. As the diabetic’s population is rapidly rising, Prosthodontists are certain to see a greater number of diabetic edentulous patients. Thus, there is a need to assess the relationship of complete denture rehabilitation with the generic health of edentulous patients which can be done by checking the stress levels, and their effects on systemic health.
Objectives: To determine anxiety levels and Salivary Cortisol levels in Type II Diabetes Mellitus patients and compare and correlate them before and after rehabilitation with Complete Dentures.
Methodology: It will be a cross-sectional study, carried out on edentulous diabetic patients aged 50-70 years visiting the Department of Prosthodontics of Sharad Pawar Dental College and Hospital. With consent for participation, Glycated Hemoglobin and anxiety levels will be determined, along with fabrication of complete dentures. Patients will be assessed at two stages; before and 1 month after complete denture rehabilitation.
Results: The research has been approved by the Institutional Ethical Committee. The results expected are the significant reduction in anxiety levels after Complete Denture Rehabilitation and thus, a definitive correlation between anxiety and salivary cortisol levels.
Conclusion: Adaptation of patients to their new set of Complete dentures can be improved by their clinicians by acquisition of the knowledge of relationship of the general health of the patient and correlating it to the dental rehabilitation.
Ni, Co Hydroxide Modified by Partial Substitution of OH– with Cl– for Boosting Ultra‐Fast Redox Kinetics up to 500 mV s−1 in Supercapacitors
Authors: Chang Jin , Zhang Su , Shi Mengjiao , Feng Jing , Liu Zheng , Wei Tong , Fan Zhuangjun 
Published: January 2022

AbstractMetal oxides/hydroxides have attracted great attention as battery‐type electrodes for supercapacitors due to their high theoretical capacitance. However, their poor electrical conductivity and ion transport kinetic severely limit their rate performance, hindering the practical application for high power devices. Herein, a simple co‐precipitation method to synthesize partial substitution of OH– with Cl– in Co, Ni layered hydroxide in saturated NaCl solution is reported. The Cl– substitution significantly increases the interlayer H2O content from 5.3% to 10.2% by changing the polarity of the hydroxide layers, leading to ultrafast ion transport through the Grotthuss behavior. Moreover, the Cl– substitution also changes the electron configuration of Ni and Co, enhancing the electrical conductivity and redox activity. Thanks to the robust electrochemical kinetics, the Ni0.85Co0.15(OH)1.77Cl0.23 shows well‐maintained redox peaks at an ultrahigh scan rate up to 500 mV s–1 and an outstanding rate performance (1076.3 C g–1 at 1 A g–1 and 333.6 C g–1 at 100 A g–1), which are among the best in the previously reported Ni(OH)2 based electrodes. Therefore, this simple anion substitution strategy opens up a new concept for achieving ultrahigh rate battery‐type electrodes.
Visible Light Induced Aerobic Coupling of Arylboronic Acids Promoted by Hydrazone
Authors: Xia Hongyu , Wang Ganghu , Zhao Dongbo , Zhu Chunyin 
Published: January 2022

AbstractA visible‐light‐induced oxidative coupling of arylboronic acids has been developed for the synthesis of biaryls. The reaction that employs polydentate hydrazones as the bifunctional catalyst works smoothly under room temperature. It is compatible with a wide range of functional group. The study of UV‐Vis spectrum indicated that hydrazone and its complex with CuI show major absorptions upon visible‐light, which secures the dual role of hydrazone as both ligand and photocatalyst in this reaction. Hence, the reaction is proposed to involve stepwise transmetallations, photo‐induced oxidations, and reductive elimination.magnified image
Exploring Coupled Martensitic and Order–Disorder Phase Transitions in Fe7Pd3 Shape Memory Alloys Equilibrated Along the Bain Path: An Embedded Atom Method and Ab Initio Based Monte Carlo Study
Authors: Holm Alexander , Schmalfuß Jonathan , Mayr Stefan G. 
Published: January 2022

AbstractThe ferromagnetic shape memory alloy, Fe7Pd3, not only offers promising applications, but also reveals a number of unresolved scientific questions, including coupling between a series of martensite and order–disorder transitions, which are in the focus of the present study. To address and understand these aspects, which are of particular importance for controlling phase stability in , an ab initio based Monte Carlo simulation code is developed, whose results demonstrate that equilibrated ordered or disordered phases show distinct dependencies coupled to temperature and lattice structure. Moreover, in equiatomic domains emerging from initially randomized disorder, an intermediate, entropy stabilized phase is identified with significantly higher magnetic anisotropy energy, being advantageous for miniaturized applications. This phase, among other observed configurations, is comprehensively characterized by free energy landscapes and magneto‐structural coupling derived from vibrational analysis of molecular dynamics trajectories and full relativistic spin polarized density functional theory ground state calculations, respectively.
Excitonic Effects in Fe/As K‐Edge Absorption for Iron Based Superconductors: A Combined DFT and BSE Analysis
Authors: Ghosh Soumyadeep , Ghosh Haranath 
Published: January 2022

AbstractThis work provides a detailed theoretical calculations of Fe/As K‐edge X‐ray absorption spectra of six different iron based superconducting compounds FeSe, LiFeAs, NaFeAs, , , and , by using three distinct levels of calculations to evaluate the electron–hole interaction properly. First, density functional theory (DFT) in absence of core–hole effect which completely neglects the electron–hole interaction; second, supercell based core–hole calculations where the static electron–hole Coulomb interaction is taken into account; and finally, by solving the Bethe–Salpeter equation (BSE) which takes care of the dynamical screening of photo‐electron and core–hole. The characteristic peaked features and spectral weight distribution in Fe K‐edge absorption spectrum matches well in both the theoretical methods, especially when “core–hole” effect are explicitly considered for iron chalcogenides. Hence, the electron–hole screening effect is almost equivalent in both the methods for these compounds. Occurrence of an additional higher energy peak and bifurcation of some peaks in the BSE spectrum may be attributed to excitonic effects. BSE based As K‐edge absorption spectrum differs significantly with the DFT ones in some of the studied compounds, indicating more paramount excitonic effects for As edges. Nonresonant inelastic X‐ray scattering is also investigated at various momentum transfers and converges to corresponding X‐ray absorption spectrum at low momentum transfers.
Symptom severity and posttraumatic growth in parents of children with autism spectrum disorder: The moderating role of social support

Published: January 2022

AbstractParents of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) experience posttraumatic growth (PTG). No study has investigated the moderating effect of social support and family function between symptom severity and PTG. The study aims to examine whether social support and family function moderate the relationship between symptom severity and PTG among parents of children with ASD. Using a cross‐sectional design, a total of 385 parents of children with ASD were recruited from September 2019 to November 2020 by convenience sampling. Participants completed the Posttraumatic Growth Inventory, Social Support Rating Scale, Autism Behavior Checklist, and Family Apgar Index. Both social support (r = 0.354, p < 0.01) and family function (r = 0.379, p < 0.05) were significantly related to PTG. Although symptom severity was not significantly related to PTG (p > 0.05), social support moderated the correlation between symptom severity and PTG [β(SE) = −0.134 (0.719), p < 0.01, 95% CI = (−3.552, −0.723)]; the positive association was stronger for low social support [β(SE) = 0.145 (0.054), t = 2.675, p < 0.01, 95% CI = (0.038, 0.252)], while the negative association was weaker for high social support [β(SE) = −0.121 (0.051), t = −2.378, p < 0.05, 95% CI = (−0.221, −0.021)]. Family function did not moderate the relationship (p > 0.05). Higher social support appears to buffer the detrimental effect of symptom severity on PTG, and social support seems to be an important factor when delivering interventions aimed at decreasing symptom severity and improving positive growth.Lay SummaryBoth social support and family function were positively associated with PTG. Providing sufficient perceived social support and enhancing family function promoted parents' positive psychological experience. Higher social support seemed to buffer the detrimental effect of symptom severity on PTG, and it could be an important intervention target for improving the psychological growth of parents of children with ASD.
Collaborative study results for oxidative gelation method (56–25.01)
Authors: Bettge Arthur D. 
Published: January 2022

AbstractBackground and ObjectivesA collaborative trial for a method estimating the potential for oxidative gelation for wheat flour was conducted among 11 laboratories and results analyzed to facilitate inclusion of the method into the AACCI Approved Methods.FindingsStatistical analyses indicated the method provided adequate repeatability (sr = 0.2–0.55) and reproducibility (sR = 0.84–2.87) within and among participating laboratories, respectively. It was noted that repeatability and reproducibility are statistical measures best applied for evaluating results deriving from methods that analyze a single component for quantity. These measures are less appropriate for measurement of dynamic systems involving multiple components, such as viscosity. Rank analyses were also used to analyze results and then discussed as an appropriate alternative means of evaluating consistency of the method among laboratories.ConclusionsThe method was approved by the AACCI/CGA Approved Method Committee.

AbstractAmaranth (Amaranthus spp.) is an underutilized crop increasing in popularity as a grain and as a leafy vegetable. It is rich in protein, minerals, and vitamins, and adapts well to a range of production systems. Currently, the lack of improved cultivars limits the use of the crop. Breeding‐improved cultivars requires access to large collections of amaranth biodiversity stored in genebanks. The task of searching such vast collections for traits of interest can be eased by generating core collections, which display the diversity of large collections in a much smaller germplasm set. The World Vegetable Center amaranth collection contains around 1,000 accessions of 13 species; among them, there are 281 accessions of four species important for use as vegetable amaranth in Africa (A. cruentus, A. hypochondriacus, A. caudatus, and A. dubius). Based on single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) marker genotype diversity, a core collection (CC) of 76 accessions, cultivars, and selections was assembled. To a large extent, it represents the diversity of the whole collection. The CC was evaluated for yield and nutritional parameters during the cool and warm seasons in Tanzania and Taiwan and a pretest for variation of drought tolerance in the CC has been performed. Cultivar Madiira 2, an improved cultivar developed for vegetable production in Africa, outperformed all other tested cultivars in terms of yield stability, but several CC accessions had higher yield, lower wilting score, and higher nutrient content than Madiira 2. This indicates the core collection can be used for further improvement of amaranth cultivars.

Published: January 2022

AbstractA palladium‐catalyzed benzylic silylation of diarylmethyl carbonates with silylboranes has been developed. The reaction proceeds smoothly even under external base‐free conditions, and the corresponding benzylic silanes are formed in good to high yields. The obtained benzyl silane derivatives can work as the benzylic nucleophiles by the action of a suitable fluoride source and react with some carbon electrophiles to deliver the corresponding benzylic C−C cross‐coupled products. Additionally, while still preliminary, the allylic silylation of the isoelectronic allylic carbonates is also achieved.
