Objective: to verify the effect of educational technologies on the quality of life of people with diabetes.
Method: quasi-experimental study, before-and-after type, developed with a group of 34 people. Six interventions were carried out, in groups or individually, using educational technologies, such as clinical simulators and physical educational games.
There is extensive use of nondestructive test (NDT) inspections on aircraft, and many techniques nowadays exist to inspect failures and cracks in their structures. Moreover, NDT inspections are part of a more general structural health monitoring (SHM) system, where cutting-edge technologies are needed as powerful resources to achieve high performance. The high-performance aspects of SHM systems are response time, power consumption, and usability, which are difficult to achieve because of the system's complexity.

- The study investigated the validity and reliability of a new measurement method for jump height in visually impaired five-a-side soccer players, as no previous research had explored this area.
- Twelve athletes performed multiple jumps on a contact platform while their performance was recorded using the new method.
- Results showed a very high agreement between the new measurement method and the contact platform, confirming that it accurately measures jump height for the athletes.
Lime stabilization is a sustainable technique due to its use of local materials, increased durability, reduced maintenance, and improved resistance to water action. This paper examines the impact of lime stabilization on the mechanical, microscopic, and mineralogical properties of a tropical soil. Two types of lime, calcitic and dolomitic, were tested at 3% and 5% by weight.
