Crustal displacement in Vietnam using CORS data during 2018 - 2021
Authors: Tran Dinh Trong , Nguyen Dinh Huy , Vu Ngoc Quang , Nguyen Quoc long
Published: June 2023

Continuously Operation Reference Stations (CORS) networks provide surveying, mapping, and positioning services and play a crucial role in determining crustal displacement. This study processed the continuous Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) data collected from 55 CORS stations in the TAST’s CORS in Vietnam to determine the crustal displacement in Vietnam from 2018 to 2021. The processing was performed using online Precise Point Positioning (PPP) services and the displacement model to estimate the velocity of the position time series. The result showed that the horizontal velocity field of all CORS stations is uniform in magnitude and direction, ranging from 25.3 to 42.6 mm/year with accuracy from ±0.1 to ±1.0 mm/year in the south-east direction in the International Terrestrial Reference Frame 2014 (ITRF2014). This study confirms the stability and accuracy of GNSS data from the TAST’s CORS network for crustal displacement analysis.
Application of Random Forest method in oil and water layer identification of logging data: a case study of the Liaohe depression
Authors: Dai Chunlei , Shi Shangming , Song Chao
Published: June 2023

Accurate identification of oil and water layers is the basis of qualitative evaluation of reservoir fluid properties or industrial value and selection of testing layers of the well. The traditional oil and water layer identification is mainly based on the extensive use of the well’s logging and logging data, which is inefficient and easy to leak interpretation or misinterpretation for those reservoirs with complex geological conditions. In this paper, the random forest method of machine learning is used to select the lithology, porosity, permeability, movable fluid, oil saturation, S0, S1, S2, Tmax of rock as characteristics; smote oversampling is used to expand the sample, and the packet estimation is used to establish the oil and water layer identification model. This method is simple and easy to use, not prone to severe overfitting, and can find the potential rules in the data. The classification performance is excellent, and the accuracy rate can reach more than 89.9%, which solves the problem of low accuracy in oil-water layer identification in the past.

Published: June 2023

Mapping the sediment-basement morphology represents a crucial part of the geophysical exploration of oil, gas, and mineral resources. In this study, authors estimated the sediment thickness in the area covering the Southern Benue Trough in Nigeria and parts of the Cameroon Volcanic Line using a high-resolution tailored gravity model together with sediment and bedrock samples taken from 113 logged boreholes. A 3-D inversion of the residual gravity data is done by applying a recently developed time-efficient gravity inversion software to determine a 3-D depth structure of the basement relief after regional-residual gravity separation. The estimated depths of the sediment-basement based on a 3-D gravity data inversion are compared with the measured sediment thickness data from drilling profiles to optimally select the gravity inversion parameters, particularly the mean sediment depth, and density contrast. Our numerical result indicates that the sediment thickness within the Southern Benue Trough study area and parts of the Cameroon Volcanic Line vary from 0.8 to 5.5 km, with a prevailing southwest trend of increasing sediment thickness while decreasing eastward. This trend closely mimics the known geological structure of the study area and generally agrees with localized estimates of the sediment thickness from previous studies. Moreover, the Bouguer gravity map of the study area exhibits a spatial pattern that indicates an existence of a high-density material, which could have led to the shallowing of sediments over and along the Abakaliki Anticlinorium. Based on these findings, the authors argued that these magmatic structures could influence hydrothermal fluid migration and might have entrapped enough sediments suitable for the maturation of mineral resources over time.

Authors: Misiąg Jan , Misiąg Wojciech
Published: June 2023

Celem artykułu jest oszacowanie rozmiarów wsparcia udzielanego ze środków publicznych na finansowanie zadań dotyczących rolnictwa i rozwoju obszarów wiejskich, identyfikacja zasad zarządzania publicznymi środkami na rolnictwo i rozwój obszarów wiejskich oraz ocena sposobu podziału i wykorzystania środków na rolnictwo i rozwój obszarów wiejskich z punktu widzenia skuteczności i efektywności interwencji publicznej. Badanie oparte zostało na analizie krytycznej krajowej oraz unijnej legislacji w odniesieniu do rolnictwa oraz obszarów wiejskich, a także analizie sprawozdań finansowych budżetu państwa, budżetu środków europejskich, jednostek centralnych i jednostek samorządu terytorialnego. Wyniki badania, opracowane według przygotowanej metodologii, szacują roczne wsparcie rolnictwa i obszarów wiejskich w Polsce na poziomie około 45-55 mld zł w zależności od roku. Poziom wsparcia jest mocno skorelowany z kalendarzem wieloletnich budżetów Unii Europejskiej. Największa część wsparcia związana jest z dotowaniem systemu ubezpieczeń społecznych rolników oraz dopłatami bezpośrednimi. Badanie oparto na wypracowanej wcześniej metodologii, pozwalającej na ocenę skali pomocy publicznej kierowanej do rolnictwa oraz rozwoju obszarów wiejskich. Agregacja wydatków publicznych z różnych źródeł pozwala na szersze spojrzenie na całość wsparcia. Wartością dodaną jest możliwość prowadzenia dalszych badań z wykorzystaniem wyników prezentowanych w niniejszym opracowaniu.
Whistleblowing in Polish Business Entities in Relation EU Legal Requirements
Authors: Skoczylas-Tworek Agnieszka
Published: June 2023

Whistleblowing as a signaling tool for perceived irregularities is now recognized as one of the most important processes that should be implemented in every organization. Its importance and relevance to the proper, lawful operation of an organization is emphasized by the provisions of EU Directive 2019/1937 on the protection of whistleblowers. They focus primarily on the implementation of the rules and procedures to enable whistleblowing and ensure sufficient protection for whistleblowers. The purpose of the paper was to assess the practical aspects of the implementation and dissemination of the whistleblowing tool in selected Polish business entities in the face of the requirements set by EU Directive 2019/1937. The study carried out confirmed the position presented so far in the literature of not providing sufficient and effective tools not only for the implementation of whistleblowing, but also for the protection of whistleblowers. Thus, it showed that most of the surveyed companies are only at the beginning of the path in implementing EU-compliant whistleblowing systems. The reasons for the above should be seen not only on the part of the entities, but also in the delayed process of implementing EU law into national law.
Wybrane aspekty organizacyjne i finansowe realizacji programów polityki zdrowotnej przez jednostki samorządu terytorialnego w Polsce
Authors: Woźniak-Holecka Joanna , Sobczyk Karolina
Published: June 2023

Jednym z przejawów polityki zdrowotnej realizowanej na poziomie lokalnym są samorządowe programy zdrowotne. Celem pracy jest określenie celów i działań jednostek samorządu terytorialnego w obszarze programów polityki zdrowotnej, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem aspektów organizacyjnych i finansowych. Badanie zostało przeprowadzone na próbie 405 jednostek samorządu terytorialnego z terenu całego kraju i oparte na ankiecie internetowej (CAWI). Jak wynika z badań własnych, jedynie niespełna 27,5% urzędów realizuje obecnie jakikolwiek program polityki zdrowotnej, 91,1% urzędów realizuje PPZ, korzystając z własnego budżetu, ale jednocześnie 46,4% urzędów przeznacza na ten cel niespełna 0,1% całości środków finansowych. Zaledwie 27,9% badanych jednostek pozyskuje dodatkowe środki w ramach dofinansowania działań przez NFZ. Problemy z realizacją programów polegają na trudnościach ze znalezieniem realizatora programu oraz brakiem wykwalifikowanej kadry na poziomie urzędu do jego przeprowadzenia. Obok niewielkich nakładów finansowych, skuteczność działań obniżają także uwarunkowania organizacyjne i trudności kadrowe.
Molecular targets of spermidine: implications for cancer suppression
Authors: Zimmermann Andreas , Hofer Sebastian J. , Madeo Frank
Published: June 2023

Spermidine is a ubiquitous, natural polyamine with geroprotective features. Supplementation of spermi-dine extends the lifespan of yeast, worms, flies, and mice, and dietary spermidine intake correlates with reduced human mortality. However, the crucial role of polyamines in cell proliferation has also implicated poly-amine metabolism in neoplastic diseases, such as cancer. While depleting intracellular polyamine biosynthesis halts tumor growth in mouse models, lifelong external spermidine administration in mice does not increase cancer incidence. In contrast, a series of recent findings points to anti-neoplastic properties of spermidine ad-ministration in the context of immunotherapy. Various molecular mechanisms for the anti-aging and anti-cancer properties have been proposed, including the promotion of autophagy, enhanced translational control, and augmented mitochondrial function. For instance, spermidine allosterically activates mitochondrial trifunc-tional protein (MTP), a bipartite protein complex that mediates three of the four steps of mitochondrial fatty acid β-oxidation. Through this action, spermidine sup-plementation is able to restore MTP-mediated mito-chondrial respiratory capacity in naïve CD8+ T cells to juvenile levels and thereby improves T cell activation in aged mice. Here, we put this finding into the context of the previously described molecular target space of spermidine.

The study's significance is determined by the need to implement Industry 4.0 technologies in all sectors of the economy. The goal of this article is to define and systematize the directions for implementing Industry 4.0 tools in the utility sector, as well as develop methodological and theoretical recommendations for assessing the effectiveness of energy-saving technologies. The research methodology consists of factors impacting the comprehensive assessment of the effective energy-saving technologies while applying multi-criteria optimization principles, particularly the Pareto-optimal (efficient) solution. The methods of dialectics, analysis and synthesis, generalization, comparison and systematization were used in the research process. Results: emphasized the need of handling energy saving matters in the Ukrainian utility sector in context of escalating aggression from russia; described the major Industry 4.0 technologies that the utility sector's most important economic players are already using or can use. The results of the implementation and operation the state target economic program of energy efficiency as well as development of the Ukrainian energy production sector in 2017-2020 were analyzed. A list of indicators that are markers of effective implementation of energy-saving technologies in the utility sector is provided. The scientific novelty and theoretical significance of the obtained results: the research was conducted using a complete approach to the assessment of innovative energy-saving technologies due to the use of Industry 4.0 tools. This comprehensive approach included consideration of efficiency (environmental, technological, economic, and social). The suggested approach entails evaluating the effects of various factors on the overall effectiveness of the innovative energy-saving program, including the review of potential project risks and the examination of internal connections between these factors. The article's practical value concentrates in the formulation and demonstration of scientific and practical provisions concerning the complete assessment of the efficacy a new technologies implementation.

Resumo: No Brasil, milhões de pessoas vivem em áreas de risco para a esquistossomose, uma doença negligenciada, de caráter crônico e com elevada morbidade. O helminto Schistosoma mansoni está presente em todas as macrorregiões, incluindo o Estado de Minas Gerais, um dos mais endêmicos. Por essa razão, a identificação de potenciais focos é fundamental para subsidiar políticas públicas de cunho educativo e profilático no controle desse desfecho. Nesse contexto, o objetivo do trabalho consiste em modelar dados de esquistossomose em relação aos aspectos espaciais e temporais, além de avaliar a importância de algumas variáveis exógenas socioeconômicas e a presença das principais espécies de Biomphalaria. Como trabalhar com casos incidentes, uma variável discreta de contagem, exige uma modelagem apropriada, foi escolhida a modelagem GAMLSS por considerar conjuntamente uma distribuição mais adequada à variável resposta devido à inflação de zeros e à heterocedasticidade espacial. Verificaram-se valores elevados de incidência em diversos municípios de 2010 a 2012 e uma tendência de queda até 2020. Também foi identificado que a distribuição da incidência se comporta de maneira diferente no espaço e no tempo. Municípios com barragem apresentaram risco 2,25 vezes maior do que os que não a continham. A presença de B. glabrata foi relacionada ao risco de ocorrência da doença. Por outro lado, a presença de B. straminea refletiu em menor risco de ocorrência da esquistossomose. Conclui-se que o controle e o acompanhamento dos caramujos da B. glabrata podem ser fundamentais para a contenção e a eliminação da esquistossomose e o modelo GAMLSS foi eficaz para tratamento e modelagem de dados espaçotemporais.

Published: June 2023

Resumo: Segundo a Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS), estima-se que 1,6 milhão de mortes e 10,6 milhões de casos de tuberculose (TB) ocorreram no mundo em 2021. Quando a doença é oportunamente tratada com o esquema terapêutico recomendado, 85% dos pacientes se curam. A ocorrência de óbito por TB sem notificação anterior denuncia falhas no acesso ao tratamento oportuno e efetivo. Sendo assim, este estudo objetivou caracterizar os casos de TB notificados pós-óbito no Brasil. Trata-se de estudo caso-controle aninhado na coorte de casos novos de TB notificados ao Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação (SINAN). As variáveis analisadas foram: características selecionadas do indivíduo (sexo, idade, raça/cor, escolaridade), do município (Índice de Desenvolvimento Humano Municipal - IDH-M, taxa de pobreza, porte municipal, região e município), dos serviços de saúde e causa básica ou associada de morte. Foi estimada regressão logística respeitando um modelo de análise hierárquico. Pessoas com TB de 60 anos de idade ou mais (OR = 1,43), de baixa escolaridade (OR = 1,67), com desnutrição (OR = 5,54), residentes em municípios com baixo IDH-M, de porte populacional médio (OR = 1,26), na Região Norte (OR = 2,42) apresentaram maior chance de notificação pós-óbito. Fatores protetores foram coinfecção HIV-TB (OR = 0,75), neoplasias malignas (OR = 0,62) e residência em municípios com alta cobertura de atenção básica (OR = 0,79). A priorização das populações vulneráveis é necessária para enfrentar as dificuldades de acesso ao diagnóstico e tratamento da TB no Brasil.

Resumo O estudo apresenta uma análise da relação diagnóstica (mensal e semanal) dos casos e óbitos de Influenza (H1N1) e Síndrome Respiratória Aguda Grave (SRAG) com o comportamento das variáveis meteorológicas (precipitação e temperaturas máximas e mínimas) entre os anos de 1914 e 2019 no Estado do Ceará. Os resultados mais expressivos mostraram que tanto H1N1 como SRAG tem casos e óbitos notificados principalmente a partir do mês de março, intensificando nos meses de inverno e primavera austrais. Em média, o número de ocorrências de H1N1 e SRAG é baixo nos primeiros sete meses do ano, e aumentam partir de agosto atingindo valores máximos em dezembro. O pico da contaminação por H1N1 e SRAG ocorre nos meses a partir do segundo semestre dos anos, em direção aos meses do final do ano. Em relação às variáveis meteorológicas e os casos de H1N1 e SRAG os resultados mostraram desvios normalizados de casos acima da média nas semanas dos meses de setembro a dezembro, e sugerem que as temperaturas máximas e mínimas do ar foram observadas com valores abaixo da média. Quanto à de contaminação da influência de casos semanais de H1N1 e SRAG no período de abril a julho com relação aos casos dos meses à frente, estes explicam estatisticamente, com confiança de 95% (segundo teste t-Sudent), da ordem de 16% a 49% dos casos um mês adiante, sendo mais aparente para os meses de abril a maio, de maio a junho e de junho a julho.

Authors: Turazi Caroline Machado Vasconcelos , Fernandes Paulo Campos Christo , Faleiro Fábio Gelape , Costa Ana Maria
Published: June 2023

ABSTRACT: Scientific research on passion fruit has been conducted in several institutions worldwide, and it is of interest to the productive sector, the scientific community, and science and technology managers to learn about current scientific advances and opportunities through metric studies of bibliographic information. A survey of publications indexed in the Web of Science and the Agricultural Research Database-BDPA, in European Patent Office - Espacenet, and Embrapa’s technologies and projects were used as indicators to characterize research networks. This study analyzed the co-authorship and co-citation network of scientific production, the strength of connections among institutions, and a map of co-occurrence of keywords from 2001 to 2020. Brazil, the United States, Colombia, and France had the largest co-authorship networks for Passifloraceae. Brazilian institutions that are in a prominent position in the analysis of co-authorship networks and that produced the largest number of publications were Embrapa, University of São Paulo (USP), and State University of Campinas (Unicamp). The main themes studied were adsorption, antioxidant, clarification, evolution, flavonoid, flowering, growth, and somatic embryogenesis. Patents related to the use of passifloras were highest between 2015 and 2017 and were mainly focused on the production of food, beverages, cosmetics, and medicines. Brazil has relevant bibliographic production and technological development regarding passion fruit for the academic community and rural producers. These results integrated aspects of scientific activity that can help explore new research directions and explain the use and circulation of scientific production.
Um estudo de modelos mecânicos em problemas de perseguição
Authors: Silva V.C. , Dutra R.S.
Published: June 2023

Neste trabalho utilizamos elementos de geometria diferencial, tais como vetores unitários, tangente e normal, e raio de curvatura, para estudar a compatibilidade de modelos mecânicos em dois problemas de perseguição. No primeiro estudo referente ao problema da curva tractriz, mostramos como a escolha de um modelo de duas partículas conectadas por uma haste rígida, em um primeiro momento, uma escolha aparentemente natural e intuitiva, é incompatível com os demais vínculos do problema. Logo em seguida ampliamos a discussão e consideramos o problema no qual as duas partículas obedecem à cinemática do problema de perseguição de Pierre Bouguer. Neste caso mostramos como a escolha de um modelo de haste hookeana extensível conectando ambas as partículas é compatível com os vínculos do referido problema de perseguição. O software gratuito Modellus é utilizado para simular o comportamento das forças necessárias para justificar a cinemática do sistema. Um interessante comportamento de mudança na orientação das forças atuantes ao longo do tempo é apresentado e discutido à luz dos vínculos a serem respeitados e através do conceito de velocidade relativa.

Medicina e melhoramento da agricultura no Brasil do século XIX
Authors: da Silva Marcio Antônio Both
Published: June 2023

RESUMO Este artigo trata das relações estabelecidas entre agricultura e medicina no Brasil do século XIX. A partir da análise de alguns manuais de agricultura e medicina publicados no período e dos relatórios do Ministério dos Negócios da Agricultura, Comércio e Obras Públicas (MACOP), o objetivo é compreender e debater os processos relacionados à constituição de campos específicos de pesquisa e discussão nestas duas áreas. Além disso, outro foco da análise é discutir o quanto os desenvolvimentos conhecidos na medicina estavam diretamente conectados e influenciavam os processos que aconteciam no universo da agricultura, especialmente no âmbito da grande lavoura escravagista. Assim, por meio do estabelecimento de comparações e contrapontos entre a medicina e a agricultura, este artigo busca também aprofundar os debates sobre os processos de modernização que aconteceram no Brasil do século XIX, mais diretamente depois da criação do MACOP na década de 1860.
De Dioniso a Bismarck. Tragédia e Política em Nietzsche
Authors: Gentili Carlo
Published: June 2023

Resumo: Partindo da análise realizada por Alfred Baeumler, em Nietzsche der Philosoph und Politker (1931), o artigo pretende ressaltar a inspiração política de O nascimento da tragédia. A distinção de Baeumler entre o elemento germânico e o alemão - que teria por meta justificar a crítica de Nietzsche ao Estado e é quase ausente na obra de Nietzsche - é objetada aqui. O artigo sublinha a presença de uma concepção política em O nascimento da tragédia, que gira em torno o conceito de Gemeinschaft, definindo uma comunidade cultural no âmago de Dioniso. A oposição nietzschiana entre Estado e cultura está na origem da crítica à política de Bismark.
Macht/Umwertung: A Vontade de potência como princípio ontológico e como teoria da decadência
Authors: Mustè Marcello
Published: June 2023

Resumo: O artigo propõe uma nova leitura da “Wille zur Macht” na obra de Nietzsche, buscando por suas premissas nos primeiros escritos, tanto quanto as primeiras ocorrências nos textos e nos fragmentos póstumos, e sublinhando o sentido que gradualmente adquire, com particular atenção à obra, desenhada e nunca construída, que se pretendia dedicar a esse conceito. A reconstrução filológica e filosófica permite destacar o significado estratégico da “vontade de potência” para o pensamento de Nietzsche, que, com a Genealogia da Moral e O Anticristo, através da crítica da metafísica, culmina numa teoria radical da decadência.

Published: June 2023

Abstract The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of energy-protein supplementation in preand postpartum periods on the productive and metabolic responses of grazing beef cows on tropical pasture. A group of 48 multiparous Nellore cows, with an initial gestation period of 6.4 months, body weight (BW) of 514.9 kg, and body condition score (BCS) of 5.4, was distributed in a completely randomized design, in a 2×2 factorial arrangement. The evaluated treatments were: UNS-UNS, unsupplemented during prepartum and postpartum; UNS-SUP, unsupplemented during prepartum and supplemented during postpartum; SUP-UNS, supplemented during prepartum and unsupplemented during postpartum; and SUP-SUP, supplemented during preand postpartum. The energy-protein supplement was offered at an amount of 1.5 kg per animal per day. Prepartum supplementation increased average daily gain and BCS at calving. Prepartum supplementation reduced non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) and increased serum concentrations of total proteins and globulins during postpartum. Postpartum supplementation increased the BCS of cows and BW of calves at the end of the experiment. Postpartum supplementation increased blood concentrations of progesterone, while NEFA decreased. Supplementation with 1.5 kg per day of the energy-protein supplement during the last 84 days of gestation improves productive performance and metabolic status during the preand postpartum periods of grazing cows.
Developing research competencies in secondary school teachers within the context of contemporary educational content
Authors: Katayev Yerdan S. , Burdina Elena I.
Published: June 2023

Abstract This article presents the initial findings from the first phase of a study aimed at fostering research competencies in secondary school teachers by implementing a tailored model within the context of contemporary educational content. The primary objective of this research is to evaluate the efficacy of the devised model in cultivating research competencies among secondary school educators within the educational process. A comprehensive description of the teachers’ research competencies is provided, along with an exposition of their content components. We conducted an analysis of key, professional, and specialized pedagogical competencies, which informed the identification of essential research competencies for teachers as they pertain to the modernization of educational content. Subsequently, we developed a model for fostering research competencies in teachers within this context. Our analysis of preliminary experimental results suggests the need for modifications and refinements to the model, employing the hermeneutical phenomenology method during educational and professional interactions among participants in the educational process. The approaches and proposed model discussed in this article can be utilized in the development and enhancement of pedagogical research skills, as well as in continued professional development. Moreover, the findings of this study may be applicable in organizing a certification system for teaching staff, although that is not the primary focus of this research.
Relação com o saber em aulas remotas: uma pesquisa com universitários em tempos de pandemia
Authors: Vieira Karina Sales , Charlot Bernard , Charlot Veleida Anahí Cápua da Silva
Published: June 2023

Resumo Este artigo busca explicitar os sentidos atribuídos por um grupo de estudantes acadêmicos às aulas remotas no contexto da Covid-19, evidenciando seus sofrimentos, mobilizações e aprendizados. Os participantes desta pesquisa foram 54 acadêmicos de classe popular, de diversos cursos de graduação que estudam em uma instituição privada de ensino superior localizada em uma cidade interiorana do estado da Bahia. Com esse entendimento, conduzimos a pesquisa ancorados na teoria da Relação com o Saber e dos conceitos de mobilização, sentido e prazer; também nos apoiamos na pesquisa qualitativa com abordagem fenomenológica. Sendo assim, a coleta de dados foi realizada por meio de dois instrumentos: questionário e balanço de saber. O balanço de saber é um instrumento de produção de dados que consiste na elaboração de um registro escrito a partir de questões apresentadas pelo pesquisador. Diante disso, para a coleta de dados, buscaramse conhecer as mobilizações para continuar estudando remotamente na pandemia, a compreensão do sentido de estudar on-line, seu valor para os estudantes participantes desta pesquisa e os sofrimentos vivenciados por eles nesse período contextualizado pela Covid-19. Conclui-se que a mobilização para continuar estudando vem do desejo de não querer trancar o curso, pois ainda veem a universidade como uma oportunidade para alcançar um futuro bem-sucedido. Outrossim, mais da metade dos estudantes adaptaram-se bem ao novo modelo (55 por cento), entretanto, 81 por cento ainda preferem o presencial. São, em sua maioria, estudantes que sofrem com o distanciamento social e com transtornos psicológicos, sobretudo, a ansiedade.
A aplicação prioritária do rol de procedimentos obrigatórios na saúde suplementar (pre-print)
Authors: Biazevic Juan
Published: June 2023

Nesta versão preliminar, que resume parte de minhas hipóteses de pesquisa, defendo que a melhor interpretação para os limites de cobertura nos planos de saúde, mesmo após a edição da Lei nº 14.454/2022, é a que reconhece a existência de prioridade de aplicação da regulação da ANS. A possibilidade de prescrever tratamento não regulamentado é excepcional no sistema e pressupõe simultaneamente: (1) a insuficiência da regulação para o tratamento da patologia; e (2) evidências científicas de eficácia.
Também apresento um brevíssimo resumo do argumento que defendi em minha tese de doutorado sobre os limites de cobertura dos planos de saúde, tese desenvolvida antes das modificações operadas na legislação. Na ocasião, afirmei que o rol de coberturas era, em princípio, taxativo, mas admitia ampliação quando os custos do procedimento não regulamentado alcançavam os custos do procedimento equivalente objeto de regulação.
É possível afirmar, a partir da comparação entre os dois argumentos, que o sistema, antes, encontrava no conceito de custo o seu limite operacional. Agora, com a nova redação legislativa, o funcionamento do contrato ocorre em torno do conceito de efetividade.

Published: June 2023

O objetivo dessa pesquisa foi delimitar as situações de violência escolar relatadas na obra O Ateneu de Raul Pompéia, centrando-se na reflexão sobre os casos de bullying. O bullying existe desde os primórdios da escola, mas o seu estudo ocorreu no momento em que grande parcela da sociedade começou a frequentá-la, acentuando no ambiente escolar, os conflitos oriundos da estrutura social contraditória. A despeito de as pesquisas sobre o bullying, no Brasil, terem sido iniciadas pouco mais de um século após a publicação original de O Ateneu, observa-se que esse problema já se fazia presente no contexto escolar brasileiro, pois parte das formas de agressão descritas nesta obra foram intencionais, repetitivas, desencadeadas pelo desejo de destruição do outro e, sem motivo aparente, e os alvos, via de regra, eram mais frágeis do que os autores. A análise das hostilidades descritas em O Ateneu, possibilita a elaboração do passado, dando voz ao sofrimento negligenciado, atenuado ou esquecido.

O controle do viés de aquiescência normalmente envolve a aplicação de itens positivos e negativos. Contudo, pouco se sabe sobre o efeito do balanceamento entre itens positivos e negativos sobre o controle do viés. O objetivo deste estudo foi comparar três modelos de Análise Fatorial Confirmatória (sem controle, MIMIC e Intercepto Randômico) para recuperar a estrutura fatorial de instrumentos desbalanceados e balanceados, a partir de dados simulados e reais (procedentes de um instrumento que avalia Personalidade). Mediante o controle da aquiescência, os resultados indicaram que a performance de escalas balanceadas foi melhor do que de escalas desbalanceadas, bem como na ausência de controle desse viés de resposta, ao considerar as escalas balanceadas e desbalanceadas. Dessa maneira, esta pesquisa aponta para a possibilidade de controle de aquiescência por meio de instrumentos balanceados associada ao uso dos métodos estatísticos na modelagem.

Published: June 2023

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the acceptance and commitment-oriented intervention program for women who have children at primary school on psychological resilience and flexibility. The study sample consisted of 22 women, 11 of whom were in the experimental group (average age of 32.6) and 11 in the control group (average age of 33.2). The inclusion criteria for the women were that they were not working, had not received any psychiatric diagnosis regarding mental health, and were not using any psychiatric treatment medication. "The Brief Psychological Resilience Scale" and "Psychological Flexibility Scale" were used to evaluate the program's effectiveness in this study. The intervention program applied in the study was developed based on the acceptance and commitment therapy approach. In addition, the program was applied once a week and each session was 90 minutes. The results obtained from the study show that the intervention program effectively increased the participants' psychological resilience and psychological flexibility levels after the sessions ended. It is observed that these positive results were maintained in the two-month follow-up study.
A knowledge management system in the strategic development of universities
Authors: Dneprovskaya Natalia , Shevtsova Innessa
Published: June 2023

The purpose of this study is a conceptual description of the implementation of knowledge management systems (KMS) as a mechanism for universities’ strategic development. Knowledge management (KM) practice from around the world proved the positive influence of KMS on productivity of educational institutions. The theoretical provisions and concept for KMS are determined based on an analysis of international experience of KMS use in higher education (HE). Theoretical provisions consist of 1) the staff activities as an object of KM and knowledge because of these activities, 2) the specificity of HE restrains a transfer of the KM mechanism from business to HE, and 3) the uniqueness of each university determines the structure and content of KMS for strategic development. The KM process in HE is reflected in the Socialization-Externalization-Combination-Internalization (SECI) model, where each stage contains a list of staff activities and a set of digital services. The novelty of the KM process model in HE is that knowledge flows in a wave, not a spiral. In this motion, knowledge passes from uncodified to partly codified and codified form. The study demonstrates that knowledge can go the from stage of partly codified to uncodified for revision, and knowledge flow can stop at any stage. The advantage of the concept we designed is the ability to control the flow of knowledge before it takes the codified form of a document. The digital environment for KM first allows management to control faculty activities at the initial stage of uncodified knowledge through measurement of activities, and then to estimate the knowledge flow itself. The gathered indicators help to make decisions to motivate or restrain faculty. The university management gets a complete picture of faculty activities with knowledge and the intensity of knowledge flow in training courses and educational programs.
Modeling and optimization of strategies for making individual decisions in multi-agent socio-economic systems with the use of machine learning
Authors: Akopov Andranik
Published: June 2023

This article presents a new approach to modeling and optimizing individual decision-making strategies in multi-agent socio-economic systems (MSES). This approach is based on the synthesis of agent-based modeling methods, machine learning and genetic optimization algorithms. A procedure for the synthesis and training of artificial neural networks (ANNs) that simulate the functionality of MSES and provide an approximation of the values of its objective characteristics has been developed. The feature of the two-step procedure is the combined use of particle swarm optimization methods (to determine the optimal values of hyperparameters) and the Adam machine learning algorithm (to compute weight coefficients of the ANN). The use of such ANN-based surrogate models in parallel multi-agent real-coded genetic algorithms (MA-RCGA) makes it possible to raise substantially the time-efficiency of the evolutionary search for optimal solutions. We have conducted numerical experiments that confirm a significant improvement in the performance of MA-RCGA, which periodically uses the ANN-based surrogate-model to approximate the values of the objective and fitness functions. A software framework has been designed that consists of the original (reference) agent-based model of trade interactions, the ANN-based surrogate model and the MA-RCGA genetic algorithm. At the same time, the software libraries FLAME GPU, OpenNN (Open Neural Networks Library), etc., agent-based modeling and machine learning methods are used. The system we developed can be used by responsible managers.
The present and future of the digital transformation of real estate: A systematic review of smart real estate
Authors: Wang Fengchen
Published: June 2023

The contribution of the real estate industry to the global and regional economy is remarkable, yet in today’s evolving digital technology and digital economy, the digital transformation of the real estate industry is lagging behind other industries. This is, on the one hand, due to the solidified processes and systems linked to the upstream and downstream real estate industries, and, on the other hand, due to the fact that digital technology disrupts traditional ways of doing business, making the industry full of uncertainty. The digital transformation of the real estate industry is a broad and emerging concept. Various related research fields are concerned with the penetration and application of different innovative technologies to the industry. This study provides a systematic review focusing on the field of smart real estate using the bibliometric analysis approach under the guidance of PRISMA. The bibliometric analyses were performed in RStudio by utilizing 22 scientific documents indexed in Scopus and Web of Science that were published from 2012 to 2022. The findings suggest that: (i) smart real estate research is still a new but rapidly emerging field; (ii) only limited academic institutions from a few countries, such as the University of New South Wales in Australia, have shown significant contributions; (iii) the research exhibits specific collaborative network characteristics, leading to a high concentration of authors and citations; and (iv) data-driven topics such as “machine learning,” “information management,” “data analytics” and “big data” indicate a high degree of research density and centrality.
