The training of Chemistry teachers in Brazil has been researched for a few decades and studies point out to training gaps that reverberate in teaching, especially in basic education. One of the contents covered in this step and which is part of the high school curriculum is radioactivity, which is related, among other things, to radiological and radioactive accidents that occur around the world. Thus, this research sought to investigate how the training provided to Chemistry undergraduates in the state of Goiás is in relation to the subject of radioactivity, since in 1987 a radiological accident occurred in Goiânia with a Cesium 137 source. This is a qualitative research, data were collected via questionnaire and the analytical technique used was discursive textual analysis (ATD). The results showed that due importance was not given to the radiological accident, since there is evidence of training gaps in relation to the topic of radioactivity in Chemistry degree courses in the state of Goiás, where the accident occurred, and the contents on radioactivity are either not addressed, or the approach is superficial. This fact directly impacts the teacher’s performance in basic education, when working on this content with their students. teaching education related things world Thus 198 13 source ATD. ATD .

RESUMEN El objetivo general fue analizar el mecanismo a través del cual la academia puede contribuir al logro de los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) en Paraguay. Ante la necesidad de visibilizar esta contribución por parte de la academia, se remarca el propósito del estudio, intercambiar experiencias de cómo puede la academia colaborar al logro de los ODS, la importancia de difundir informaciones relacionadas a los ODS y, sobre todo, indagar el grado de conocimiento de los ODS de personas clave de organizaciones o instituciones de las distintas comunidades de la zona de influencia de la sede Central y las Filiales de la FCE-UNA. El estudio analítico-descriptivo, está basado esencialmente en un trabajo de campo, con relevamiento de datos definida como población objetivo a líderes comunitarios. Los resultados obtenidos permiten afirmar que la visión de los líderes sobre el rol de las universidades para el logro de los ODS en Paraguay, refieren a que su rol es fundamental para el logro de los ODS y también mencionan que su rol es ser nexo con la sociedad para el logro de los ODS. Se concluye que el mecanismo óptimo a través del cual la academia/universidad puede contribuir al logro de los ODS en Paraguay, seria preferentemente incluir el tema de los ODS en el currículo de las facultades y brindar cursos sobre los ODS; otro, además sería elaborar e implementar proyectos en línea de los ODS, al que se agregan, el asesorar a las instituciones responsables del cumplimiento de los ODS.

ABSTRACT The overarching objective was to examine the manner in which academic institutions can contribute to the attainment of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Paraguay. In light of the necessity to make this contribution by academia visible, the objective of the study is to facilitate an exchange of experiences on how academia can collaborate to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the importance of disseminating information related to the SDGs, and, most importantly, to investigate the degree of knowledge of the SDGs among key individuals from organizations or institutions in various communities within the area of influence of the Central Headquarters and the Branches of FCE-UNA. The study is primarily analytical and descriptive in nature, with a particular focus on fieldwork and the collection of data from community leaders. The findings indicate that the leaders perceive the role of universities in achieving the SDGs in Paraguay to be of paramount importance. Furthermore, they assert that their role is to serve as a conduit between society and the achievement of the SDGs. It is thus concluded that the most effective mechanism through which academia/ universities can contribute to the achievement of the SDGs in Paraguay would be to integrate the topic of the SDGs into the curricula of the faculties and to offer courses on the SDGs. Additionally, another avenue for contribution would be the development and implementation of SDG-aligned projects, in collaboration with institutions responsible for achieving the SDGs

Abstract This work describes research that seeks to establish what gender students assign to six university courses. The work was divided into two phases, in the first one, the statistical data, from 2010 to 2022, of the number of students new to careers differentiated by gender was analyzed. In the second part, we sought to know the students opinions on the difference found in the number of male and female students admitted to each degree program. For this phase, ten students from each major were chosen to conduct a structured interview with open questions. A theoretical-deductive methodology with a quantitative approach was used for the statistical analysis and an analytical-synthetic methodology with a qualitative approach for the interviews. Among the results, it was obtained that, statistically, the university majors considered in the study have been assigned a gender; and that furthermore, when students are asked if the courses have gender, they answer no. But in the interview, their answers and comments allow us to affirm that they do assign a gender to the university major and that it coincides with the one found in the statistical analysis.

Resumen En este trabajo se describe una investigación que busca establecer qué género asignan los estudiantes a seis carreras universitarias. El trabajo se dividió en dos fases: en la primera, se analizaron los datos estadísticos, del 2010 al 2022, del número de alumnos de nuevo ingreso a las carreras diferenciados por género; en la segunda parte se buscó conocer las opiniones de los estudiantes sobre la diferencia encontrada en el número de alumnos y alumnas admitidos en cada carrera, para esta fase se eligieron diez estudiantes de cada carrera para realizarles una entrevista estructurada de preguntas abiertas. Se utilizó una metodología teórica-deductiva con enfoque cuantitativo para el análisis estadístico y una analítica-sintética con enfoque cualitativo para las entrevistas. Entre los resultados se obtuvo que, de manera estadística, a las carreras universitarias consideradas en el estudio sí se les ha asignado un género; y que, además, cuando a los estudiantes se les cuestiona si las carreras tienen género, responden que no. Pero en la entrevista, sus respuestas y comentarios, permiten afirmar que ellos sí asignan un género a las carreras universitarias y que coincide con el hallado en el análisis estadístico.

Resumo Introdução: O uso da ultrassonografia no local de atendimento (PoCUS) tem ganhado relevância na prática médica, melhorando a capacidade diagnóstica e a segurança do paciente. Contudo, no Uruguai, o treinamento PoCUS para internistas é limitado. O objetivo é concretizar a implementação da formação PoCUS para os cursos de pós-graduação em Medicina Interna. Metodologia: Foi criado um curso-oficina dividido em módulos por sistemas e protocolos clínicos. Bibliografia e material audiovisual foram fornecidos aos participantes. Foram utilizados aparelhos de ultrassom portáteis sem fio e modelos voluntários. Foram realizados testes diagnósticos de conhecimento, avaliações clínicas objetivas estruturadas e pesquisas de satisfação. Resultados: 30 dos 32 participantes concluíram e foram aprovados no curso. A pesquisa de satisfação mostrou alta avaliação dos objetivos do curso, logística e instrutores. Houve uma melhoria estatisticamente significativa no conhecimento do PoCUS entre o pré e o pós-teste (54,72% vs. 82,5%). A avaliação final teve média de aprovação de 92%, com uma única exceção que exigiu recuperação. Discussão: A formação PoCUS em Medicina Interna é considerada valiosa, mas o seu desenvolvimento é limitado no Uruguai. A implementação de um curso estruturado demonstrou melhorias no conhecimento e elevados níveis de satisfação. Foi comparado com outros cursos de habilidades clínicas com resultados semelhantes. A curva de aprendizado para diferentes órgãos varia, destacando a necessidade de monitoramento contínuo. Conclusões: Altos níveis de satisfação dos participantes foram obtidos com resultados positivos em conhecimentos e habilidades. Acreditamos que é importante continuar investigando a curva de aprendizagem pós-curso.

Abstract Introduction: The use of point-of-care ultrasound (PoCUS) has gained relevance in medical practice, improving diagnostic capacity and patient safety. However, in Uruguay, PoCUS training for internal medicine physicians is limited. The objective is to achieve the implementation of PoCUS training in Internal Medicine postgraduate courses. Methodology: A course-workshop was created divided into modules by clinical systems and protocols. Bibliography and audiovisual material were provided to participants. Wireless portable ultrasound machines and voluntary models were used. Diagnostic knowledge tests, structured objective clinical evaluations, and satisfaction surveys were conducted. Results: 30 of the 32 participants completed and passed the course. The satisfaction survey showed a high evaluation of the course objectives, logistics, and instructors. There was a statistically significant improvement in PoCUS knowledge between the pre and post test (54.72% vs. 82.5%). The final assessment had an average passing rate of 92%, with only one exception requiring retake. Discussion: PoCUS training in Internal Medicine is perceived as valuable, but its development is limited in Uruguay. The implementation of a structured course demonstrated improvements in knowledge and high levels of satisfaction. It was compared with other clinical skills courses with similar results. The learning curve for different organs varies, highlighting the need for continued monitoring. Conclusions: High levels of satisfaction were obtained from participants with positive knowledge and skills results. We believe that it is important to continue investigating the learning curve after the course.

Abstract: The present study examines the practices promoting self-regulated learning of university professors who teach basic sciences and social sciences courses in Chile, Argentina, and Cuba. The methodology applies a quantitative approach with a non-experimental cross-sectional design and descriptive-correlational design of variables. The sample consists of 299 university professors from Chile (41.1%), Argentina (31.1%), and Cuba (27.8%), with 18.8 years on average of university teaching experience. The results show that the basic sciences teaching group declares self-efficacy, knowledge, and beliefs to a lesser extent than social sciences professors, but this does not influence the practices of promoting self-regulation of learning. In conclusion, the variables are related to each other and the ones with the greatest effect are beliefs and teaching experience, the latter independent of the professor's country of origin.

Resumen: En el presente estudio se analizan las prácticas de promoción de la autorregulación del aprendizaje (ARA) de docentes universitarios que imparten clases a carreras de ciencias básicas y ciencias sociales en Chile, Argentina y Cuba. La metodología tiene un enfoque cuantitativo con un diseño no experimental transversal y diseño descriptivo-correlacional de las variables. La muestra consiste de 299 docentes universitarios de Chile (41.1%), Argentina (31.1%) y Cuba (27.8%), con un promedio de 18.8 años de experiencia ejerciendo docencia universitaria. Los resultados muestran que el grupo docente de ciencias básicas declara en menor medida autoeficacia, conocimiento y creencias que docentes de ciencias sociales, pero esto no influye sobre las prácticas de promoción de la autorregulación del aprendizaje. En conclusión, las variables se relacionan entre sí y las que tienen mayor efecto son las creencias y experiencia docente, esta última independiente del país de origen de los docentes.

There is widespread agreement that skills development is a vital dimension of the just energy transition (JET). Skills development for JET is rapidly emerging and involves complex inter-sectoral systems of skills development and new methods for demand analysis. Currently in South Africa, learning pathways into green jobs, enterprise development and more sustainable job options, including those required for JET at entry and technical levels, are unclear, ad hoc and fragmented. At best, we have fragmented offerings of courses and qualifications and few systemic approaches to skills analysis and development. There is also a narrow reliance on supply and demand discourses that are ill-fitting for the type of skills that need to be developed. Drawing on a group of regional and local studies focusing on skills supply and demand for JET, the paper analyses the responsiveness of skills systems, with specific focus on institutions and institutional arrangements that underpin skills planning and anticipation. The paper critiques the metaphor of 'supply' and 'demand', which, it argues, is the wrong lens, as it focuses attention on certain parts of the skills system dislocated from the broader conditions that they are imbedded in. We pose new methodological questions for engaged skills research that can enable a green and just future, and the systemic transformations that are needed to catalyse a low-carbon transition. SIGNIFICANCE: The research findings offer a critical reflection on the current approach to research focused on skills for the just energy transition. The review highlights the limitations of the dominant supply-demand approach of skills analysis, and we argue that it promotes a neoliberal, market-led discourse on skills that privileges industry and excludes the voices of communities and workers.

Abstract Objective Platelet to albumin ratio (PAR) and prognostic nutritional index (PNI) are potential indicators for evaluating nutritional and inflammatory status. This study aimed to examine the relationship between PAR and PNI and the acute complicated course of acute hematogenous osteomyelitis (AHO). Methods AHO patients were divided into the simple course group and the acute complicated course group. The patient's gender, age, site of infection, body temperature, laboratory results, and pathogen culture results were collected and compared. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent risk factors of the acute complicated course group. The receiver operating characteristic curve was applied to determine the optimal cut-off value. Results In total, 101 AHO patients with a median age of 7.58 years were included. There were 63 cases (62.4 %) in the simple course group and 38 cases (37.6 %) in the complicated course group. Binary logistic regression analysis revealed that PAR and PNI were independent risk factors for predicting the acute complicated course of AHO (p = 0.004 and p < 0.001, respectively). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis demonstrated that the combination of PAR and PNI had an area under the curve of 0.777 (95 % CI: 0.680-0.873, p < 0.001) with a cut-off value of 0.51. Conclusions The incidence of acute complicated courses was significantly higher in patients with high PAR and low PNI. A combined factor greater than 0.51, derived from PAR and PNI measurements within 24 h of admission, may be useful for predicting AHO patients who are likely to develop severe disease.

The utilisation of online platform Blackboard Learn for Teaching and Learning (T & L) has become an essential and obligatory component of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). This study research aims to examine the difficulties and potential of its implementation at a Historically Disadvantaged Institution (HDI) like University of Limpopo (UL), with a focus on the Bachelor of Arts (BA) programme in Criminology and Psychology (Crim & Psych) as guided by University of Limpopo Faculty of Humanities Multimodal Teaching and Learning Plan (UL FHMTLP). This qualitative study employed an empirical research design, selecting Twelve (12) permanent Academics/Lecturers from the Department of Criminology and Criminal Justice at UL for interview purposes. The verbatim responses from the interviews were analysed to identify the key themes and sub-themes of the study using the inductive Thematic Content Analysis (TCA) method. This study revealed that there is a lack of utilisation of Blackboard Learn at UL, as well as ineffective adaptation of current strategies and UL FHMTLP implementations. Many Lecturers still depend on contact T & L and the use of Blackboard Learn to connect the operations of this programme is currently unsuccessful. Recommendations consist of regular training and refreshment courses on the application of this technology, such as the Learning Management System (LMS) provided by the Information and Communications Technology [ICT]-electronic-(e)-Learning Unit. This could potentially facilitate collaborations between Natural Sciences (Technology - Blackboard Learn) and Human Sciences (Crim & Psych) to generate new knowledge, while also clearly providing the advantages of technology utilisation for T & L at UL. This kind of innovation could accommodate "economical, educational, technical, and social transformations" to address the mentioned challenges and opportunities, while making contributions to the field of professorship, with a focus on the South African Future Professors Programme (FPP) Phase 2 Cohort 1 2022-2023, utilising Blackboard Learn for T & L in a HDI to outline the existing challenges and possibilities.

Abstract: The purpose of this research lies in evaluating the current state of higher university education about bioethics studies in the faculties of health sciences in the Peruvian territory. The methodological design adopts a descriptive level with a mixed approach that is divided into two stages: The first consists of a qualitative theoretical-analytical-rational analysis, followed by a subsequent empirical analysis with a quantitative, descriptive, and cross-sectional approach. The main discoveries refer to the existence of nineteen licensed public universities in Peru that offer the Human Medicine degree. However, it was found that the Bioethics course is only available in nine of these institutions. In summary, it can be affirmed that in the educational programs of careers related to health sciences, attempts are made to address ethical principles from different perspectives, for example, through courses on general ethics or deontology. However, this strategy is not considered adequate. In addition, it is imperative to promote an educational policy within the faculties of health sciences that mandates the mandatory inclusion of a bioethics course in the curricula of health sciences programs.

Resumen: El propósito de esta investigación es evaluar el estado actual de la educación universitaria superior en relación con los estudios de Bioética en las facultades de ciencias de la salud en el territorio peruano. El diseño metodológico adopta un nivel descriptivo con enfoque mixto dividido en dos etapas: la primera consistió en un análisis teórico analítico-racional cualitativo, seguido de un análisis empírico posterior con enfoque cuantitativo, descriptivo y transversal. Los principales descubrimientos se refieren a la existencia de diecinueve universidades públicas licenciadas en el Perú que ofrecen la carrera de Medicina Humana. Sin embargo, se constató que el curso de Bioética sólo está disponible en nueve de estas instituciones. En resumen, se puede afirmar que en los programas educativos de las carreras relacionadas con ciencias de la salud se intenta abordar los principios éticos desde perspectivas distintas, por ejemplo, a través de cursos de ética general o deontología. No obstante, esta estrategia no es considerada adecuada, por lo que es imperativo promover una política educativa dentro de las facultades de ciencias de la salud que ordene la inclusión obligatoria de un curso de Bioética en los planes de estudio de los programas de ciencias de la salud.

Resumo: O propósito dessa investigação é avaliar o estado atual da educação universitária superior em relação aos estudos de bioética nas faculdades de ciências da saúde no Peru. O desenho metodológico adotou um nível descritivo com enfoque misto que se dividiu em duas etapas: a primeira consistiu em uma análise teórica analítico-racional qualitativa, seguida de uma análise empírica posterior com enfoque quantitativo, descritivo e transversal. Os principais achados se referem à existência de dezenove universidades públicas licenciadas no Perú que oferecem a carreira de Medicina Humana. Sem dúvida, constatou-se que o curso de Bioética só se encontra disponível em nove destas instituições. Em resumo, pode-se afirmar que nos programas educativos das carreiras relacionadas com ciências da saúde tenta-se abordar os princípios éticos a partir de diferentes perspectivas, por exemplo, através de cursos de ética geral ou deontologia. Apesar disso, essa estratégia não é considerada adequada. Além disso, é imperativo promover uma política educativa dentro das faculdades de ciências da saúde que determine a inclusão obrigatória de um curso de bioética nos planos de estudo dos programas de ciências da saúde.

Objetivos: Investigar os fatores associados à disposição para conhecer o estado sorológico para a sífilis entre estudantes do ensino superior. Métodos: Estudo transversal e analítico realizado com estudantes do ensino superior de Portugal. A coleta de dados ocorreu por meio de questionário on- line. Os dados foram analisados pela regressão logística de Poisson com variância robusta, utilizando o SPSS-24. Resultados: Incluídos 413 estudantes, maioria do sexo feminino, idade média de 20,5 anos e matriculada em cursos de saúde. Observou -se vulnerabilidades comportamentais como não uso do preservativo e uso de álcool/outras drogas; baixa percepção de risco e conhecimento ruim sobre sífilis. Menos da metade dos estudantes se dispuseram a realizar o teste para sífilis. Conclusões: A adesão ao rastreio para sífilis foi baixa e associada a fatores incomuns como menor conhecimento, baixa percepção de risco, menor idade e número de parcerias sexuais e frequentar cursos de áreas diferentes da saúde.

Objectives: To investigate the factors associated with the willingness to know the serological status for syphilis among higher education students. Methods: A cross-sectional and analytical study was conducted with higher education students in Portugal. Data collection was carried out through an online questionnaire. The data were analyzed using Poisson logistic regression with robust variance, utilizing SPSS-24. Results: A total of 413 students were included, the majority of whom were female, with an average age of 20.5 years, and enrolled in health-related courses. Behavioral vulnerabilities such as not using condoms and using alcohol/other drugs were observed; there was also a low-risk perception and poor knowledge about syphilis. Less than half of the students were willing to undergo the syphilis test. Conclusions: Adherence to syphilis screening was low and associated with uncommon factors such as lower knowledge, low risk perception, younger age, fewer sexual partnerships, and enrollment in courses outside the health field.

Abstract The anatomy of the venous system of the lower limbs has been full of imprecise terms and eponyms that make it difficult to understand, communicate, and treat the pathologies that affect it. Terminologia anatomica (TA) has come to banish these problems, but its use has not yet penetrated sufficiently since what was taught in the 1st years in anatomy courses is forgotten when reaching clinical or radiological practice, perpetuated by those who teach in the final stages of training. This work aims to be a contribution to the study of the venous anatomy of the lower limbs, with an emphasis on the superficial system, incorporating the use of TA, which corresponds to the official human anatomical nomenclature, for the study of anatomy and realization and the interpretation of imaging tests such as ultrasound, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and phlebography.

Resumen La anatomía del sistema venoso de los miembros inferiores ha estado llena de términos y epónimos imprecisos que dificultan el entendimiento, la comunicación y el tratamiento de las patologías que le afectan. La Terminologia Anatomica ha venido a desterrar estos problemas, pero su utilización aún no ha penetrado lo suficiente, ya que lo enseñado en los primeros años en los cursos de anatomía se olvida al llegar a la práctica clínica o radiológica, perpetuado por quienes enseñan en las últimas etapas de formación. Este trabajo pretende ser un aporte en el estudio de la anatomía venosa de los miembros inferiores con énfasis en el sistema superficial, incorporando el uso de la Terminologia Anatomica, que corresponde a la nomenclatura anatómica humana oficial, para el estudio de la anatomía, la realización y la interpretación de exámenes imagenológicos como ultrasonido, tomografía computarizada, resonancia magnética y flebografías.

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR), in which microbes adapt to and resist current therapies, is a well-recognised global problem that threatens to reverse gains made by modern medicine in the last decades. AMR is a complex issue; however, at its core, it is driven by the overuse and inappropriate use of antimicrobials. Socioeconomic factors have been identified as significant contributors to the emergence and exacerbation of AMR, especially in populations facing inadequate access to healthcare, poor sanitation services and high morbidity and mortality rates. Weak healthcare systems and water, sanitation and hygiene have been highlighted as fundamental risk factors for AMR emergence and transmission. Behavioural factors, such as purchasing antibiotics without a prescription from a registered healthcare professional, not completing the prescribed course or overly prolonged courses of antibiotics, using antibiotics to treat viral infections, lack of access to quality antibiotics, and the proliferation of substandard or falsified (SF) drugs, have also been identified as significant contributors to AMR. Low- and middle-income countries have a higher incidence of antibiotics being dispensed without a prescription than higher-income countries.
