Dealing with Interval DEA Based on Error Propagation and Entropy: A Case Study of Energy Efficiency of Regions in China Considering Environmental Factors
Authors: Fan Jianping , Yue Weizhen , Wu Meiqin
Published: August 2017

The conventional data envelopment analysis (DEA) measures the relative efficiency of decision making units (DMUs) consuming multiple inputs to produce multiple outputs under the assumption that all the data are exact. In the real world, however, it is possible to obtain interval data rather than exact data because of various limitations, such as statistical errors and incomplete information, et al. To overcome those limitations, researchers have proposed kinds of approaches dealing with interval DEA, which either use traditional DEA models by transforming interval data into exact data or get an efficiency interval by using the bound of interval data. In contrast to the traditional approaches above, the paper deals with interval DEA by combining traditional DEA models with error propagation and entropy, uses idea of the modified cross efficiency to get the ultimate cross efficiency of DMUs in the form of error distribution and ranks DMUs using the calculated ultimate cross efficiency by directional distance index. At last we illustrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method by applying it to measure energy efficiency of regions in China considering environmental factors.

Authors: Patloch Alexandra
Published: August 2017

Due to actions taken to moderate the level of management remuneration and its structure, the present article deals with the effectiveness of such governmental regulations. The ways of regulations differ around the world, but this article focuses on three particular measurements: the so-called Say on Pay, the tax deductibility of compensation, and the limitation of remuneration components. The aim of this article is to analyse existing empirical studies which deal with the three stated actions' effectiveness.
Opera-Film as Television: Remediation in Tony Britten's Falstaff
Authors: Citron Marcia J.
Published: August 2017

Tony Britten's film Falstaff (2008) is an unusual, even radical opera-film. An updated treatment with a colloquial English translation and a chamber arrangement, and lacking many operatic elements, the film enacts a remediation of opera-film through the medium of television. Remediation, as conceived by Jay Bolter and Richard Grusin, refers to “the representation of one medium in another,” and its goal “is to refashion or rehabilitate other media.” Britten's Falstaff is strongly influenced by British popular television, especially British situation comedy. Sitcoms that emphasize working-class culture and “lads’ humor”—such as Only Fools and Horses and Men Behaving Badly respectively—resonate conspicuously with this Falstaff. In addition, television features prominently in it by virtue of the fact that protagonist John Falstaff is a former television star. The implications of this remediated opera-film for Verdi and Boito's opera are also of considerable interest. In critical ways associated with music, text, and narrative, the opera is highly suited to Britten's conception. Building on the work of Denise Gallo, I propose that Britten's film marks another moment in the struggle for national ownership of the Merry Wives material. In this sense the film articulates an “Englishizing” of Verdi and Boito's opera. The new kind of opera-film represented by Britten's Falstaff reinforces the idea of “television opera” as a genre that takes advantage of television's medial and aesthetic capabilities, and expands its purview to adaptations as well as new operas.
Metode istraživanja interneta kao novog medija
Authors: Leburić Anči , Sladić Maja
Published: August 2017

Autorice polaze od pretpostavke o Internetu kao predmetu znanstveno-istraživačkih projekata i kao o značajnom društvenom fenomenu. Tom novom mediju društvena uloga poprilično je kontroverzna. Stoga se u tekstu raspravljaju mogućnosti istraživanja Interneta kao suvremenog medijskog fenomena. Kako su početkom trećeg milenija u stručnoj literaturi vrlo učestale rasprave o nedostacima Interneta i opasnostima što ih sa sobom (do)nosi, autorice ih elaboriraju u kontekstu suodnosa kategorija virtualnog i cyber spram metamedijskog. Naime, multimedijska mreža Internet izrasla je u globalnu, planetarnu mrežu čiji je utjecaj empirijski nesaglediv i posebno značajan u društvenom okružju. Pošto je Internet postao osnova fenomena virtualne stvarnosti, postala su nužna ali i naročito zanimljiva istraživanja te prividne stvarnosti. Budući da Internet.mijenja prostorne i vremenske odnose među pojavama i ljudima, njegova istraživanja zahtijevaju i primjerenu metodologiju i metodološke pristupe. U radu se sugeriraju metodološke kombinacije kvalitativnih i kvantitativnih metoda, tehnika i procedura. Prezentiraju se potencijalne istraživačke matrice podataka i metoda, koje je moguće primjenjivati u Internet istraživanjima. Autorice zaključuju kako se dodavanjem elemenata jedne metodologije drugoj, poboljšava istančanost i profiliranost istraživanja, a integriranjem istraživačkih metoda usklađuju se i dopunjuju nedostaci pojedinih metoda. Ipak, u realnim empirijskim istraživanjima, kvalitativno i kvantitativno se još uvijek strogo razlikuju, pa je namjera ovoga rada zapravo bila ne samo upozoriti, već i jasnije afirmirati takva metodološka opredjeljenja. To posebno vrijedi za razvitak sociološke metodologije, kao i drugih relevantnih metodologija s područja društvenih i humanističkih znanosti. Na kraju, konstatiraju kako su perspektive Interneta kao istraživačkoga predmeta plodne, ali kompleksne i nepredvidljive.

Az önszabályozás erő-modellje
Authors: Vargha Bálint , Kiss Enikő Csilla
Published: August 2017

Az önszabályozás fogalma a pszichológiában azt a képességünket jelenti, hogy mennyire vagyunk képesek cselekedeteinket a saját akaratunk, belátásunk szerint irányítani. Vajon mitől függ, hogy képesek leszünk-e akaratunk szerint viselkedni, vagyis mennyire vagyunk képesek szabályozni a viselkedésünket? Jelen tanulmányunkban egy idehaza kevésbé ismert elméletet mutatunk be, amely erre a kérdésre keres választ. Roy F. Baumeister önszabályozáshoz kapcsolódó erő-modellje az önszabályozás képességéhez egy olyan energiát rendel, amely folyamatosan a rendelkezésünkre áll. Minden olyan esetben, amikor a célunk felé haladva tudatos cselekvést végzünk és szabályozzuk viselkedésünket, ebből az energiából merítünk. Ez az energia azonban véges, és ahhoz, hogy megfelelően lássuk el a mindennapos tevékenységeinket, arra van szükség, hogy ne merítsük le ezt az energiát túlságosan. Minden egyes esetben, amikor a cselekvésünket szabályozzuk, felhasználunk ebből az energiából, és ha ezt az energiát túlságosan kimerítjük, akkor fellép az ego-kimerülés állapota, amelynek az a jellegzetessége, hogy hátráltatja az egyén további sikeres önszabályozását, és sok más következmény mellett céljai elérését is. Cikkünkben először röviden arról lesz szó, hogy miért van szükség önszabályozásra, majd ezt követően arról, hogyan képzeli el Baumeister ennek az energiának a működését. Bemutatásra kerülnek alternatív magyarázó modellek, és néhány olyan vizsgálat az egészségpszichológia területéről, amelyek igazolják a modell fontosságát. Végül a jelenleg is zajló kutatásokról esik szó, amelyek folyamatosan árnyalják a kezdetben egységes egokimerülés–hatásról alkotott képet.
Előzetes eredmények egy magyar mintán kidolgozott Intrauterin Kapcsolati Kérdőív méréses tapasztalatairól – pilot study
Authors: Hadházi Éva , Andrek Andrea , Kekecs Zoltán
Published: August 2017

Elméleti háttér

Az 1980-as évektől kutatják az „anyai környezet” magzati fejlődésre gyakorolt hatását, ám az eredmények nem konzekvensek az anya–magzat kapcsolatot befolyásoló tényezőket illetően.

Cél

Magyar mintán kialakítani egy anya–magzat kapcsolatot mérő kérdőívet, valamint feltárni az intrauterin kötődésben meghatározó szerepet játszó jellegzetességeket.

Módszerek

114, 15 és 38 gesztációs hét közötti várandós anya vett részt a kutatásban, kitöltve az Intrauterin Kapcsolati Kérdőívet, a Maternal Fetal Attachment Scale magyar változatát (MFAS-HU), az Intimitás és a Szülői Bánásmód Kérdőívet.

Eredmények

A kialakított 28 tételes Intrauterin Kapcsolati Kérdőív (IUKK) faktorstruktúrája illeszkedési mutatókban az elvárások alatt marad (RMSEA = 0,08; χ2/df = 1,645; NFI = 0,85; CFI = 0,87). A 8 alskála Cronbach-alfa értékei 0,56–0,93 közöttiek. Explorátoros faktorelemezéssel sikerült egy jó kommunalitási tulajdonságokkal rendelkező rövidebb modellt kialakítani (IUKK–R), amely 12 tételt és 3 alskálát tartalmaz (RMSEA = 0,08; χ2/df = 1,660; NFI = 0,95; CFI = 0,96). Az IUKK–R Cronbach-alfa értékei magasak: 0,81–0,93. Elemzéseinkhez az IUKK–R modellt használtuk. Kérdőívünk korrelál az MFAS–HU-val, ugyanakkor a megragadott magzati kötődés dimenzióik nem teljesen átfedőek. A nemzetközi tapasztalatokkal nagyjából összhangban, az anya–magzat kapcsolat erősségében szignifikánsan magasabb értéket ér el az anya, ha bármelyik tényező jellemzi: házasságban él; magasabb az anyagi hozzájárulása a családi kasszához; nem volt korábban spontán vetélése, ő maga beavatkozástól mentesen, természetes módon született; biztosan tudja, vagy nem tudja a magzat nemét. Nem befolyásol a várandósság ideje, az iskolai végzettség, a várandósság tervezettsége, a fogantatás módja, a meglévő gyermekek száma és a magzatmozgás észlelése. A magzati kötődés összefügg a párkapcsolati intimitással: az észlelt gondoskodás kedvezőbb, míg az észlelt kontroll kedvezőtlenebb anya–magzat kötődéssel jár együtt. Az anya saját szüleivel való kapcsolatának megélése, az anyai és apai szeretet, pozitívan korrelál a saját magzatához fűződő kapcsolattal.

Következtetések

A magyar mintára kidolgozott kérdőív megbízhatósága ígéretes, de szükségesek további validitásvizsgálatok, nagyobb, heterogén mintán. Tapasztalataink felhívják a figyelmet a szülői bánásmód és a párkapcsolati gondoskodás jelentőségére a várandósság időszakában és gyakorlati relevanciával bírnak a prevenciós munkában.
DNA preparation of Amorphophallus paeoniifolius for SSR evaluation v2
Authors: Santosa Edi
Published: August 2017

The corms and leaves of elephant foot yams (Amorphophallus paeoniifolius(Dennst.) Nicolson) are important foods in the local diet in many Asian regions. The crop has high productivity and wide agroecological adaptation and exhibits suitability for the agroforestry system. Although the plant is assumed to reproduce via panmixia, a comprehensive study on the genetic background across regions to enhance wider consumer palatability is still lacking. Here, ten informative microsatellites were analyzed in 29 populations across regions in India, Indonesia and Thailand to understand the genetic diversity, population structure and distribution to improve breeding and conservation programs. The genetic diversity was high among and within regions. Some populations exhibited excess heterozygosity and bottlenecking. PairwiseFSTindicated very high genetic differentiation across regions (FST= 0.274), and the Asian population was unlikely to be panmictic. Phylogenetic tree construction grouped the populations according to country of origin with the exception of the Medan population from Indonesia. The current gene flow was apparent within the regions but was restricted among the regions. The present study revealed that Indonesia and Thailand populations could be alternative centers of the gene pool, together with India. Consequently, regional action should be incorporated in genetic conservation and breeding efforts to develop new varieties with global acceptance.

Published: August 2017

With the purpose of evaluating the possibility of describing hemodynamic pulmonary edema in infants with congenital heart disease using the previously suggested sonographic phenomena “alveolar consolidation” and “interstitial syndrome” in adults, 131 children of both genders were examined at the age of 1-246 days. Of these infants, 47 had congenital heart anomalies, 51 had chronic somatic pathology and patent foramen ovale, and 33 had a somatic pathology associated with either congenital heart disease or small heart abnormalities. The duration of observation and the number of sessions of ultrasound scanning were determined by the health status dynamics of the infants. All infants were described in terms of 179 characteristics of physical examination and laboratory and instrumental findings obtained through standard procedures. Echocardiography and ultrasound lung scans were performed with LOGIQ E (General Electric) and HD11 (Philips) using linear, convex, and sector transducers (7-12, 3-5, and 1.7-4.0 МHz respectively). In addition to standard protocols of heart and lung description, we also registered the square of consolidated parcels summarized for all lung segments, the number of B-lines summarized for all lung segments, and the swing of diaphragm and lung movement and calculated the diaphragm and lung swing ratio. An attempt to describe the differences between pulmonary circulation in terms of ultrasound sonography for heart defects associated and not associated with blood filling in the lungs was successful. The total area of air-free/consolidated subpleural parcels of lungs and the extent of interstitial lung syndrome were the most informative sonographic characteristics. It was concluded that interstitial edema and alveolar consolidation, described in terms of transthoracic ultrasound sonography, are recommended for use as markers of the disorders of pulmonary circulation associated with congenital heart malformations in infants.

Published: August 2017

This study describes the manufacturing method of alloplastic blocks for treatment of bone defects through tissue replacement with combination of tricalcium phosphate and polylactic acid. The method is unique because for its implementation we used 3d-printing and materials that we had not combined before. Such approach to manufacturing of synthetic blocks allows us to decide several tasks: planning of surgical operation’s strategy by means of modelling in specialized software of certain operating region and to print block with suitable shape and size which would accurately fit the edges of bone defects and fill it. Thus, we can achieve all objectives in the shortest possible time, while saving time and resources. Using this methods, we created experimental model of lower jaw and alloplastic block that can be used with a real patient and be widely applied not only in surgical dentistry and maxillofacial surgery, but also in any other branch of medicine.Combination of tricalcium phosphate and polylactic acid has several advantages because first component acts as a frame and due to its chemical structure makes block’s shape more stable. The second component acts as a filler by means of irregular shape of granules and creates spongiform structure for further blood vessels growth. In addition, materials have properties such as: bioinertness, biocompatibility, biodegradable and don’t have negative impact on the organism. Using this method, we can get the fragment that meets all requirements, and surgical operation becomes economically profitable both for patient and for hospital.

Published: August 2017

The aim of the study is the identification of independent predictors of progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in children operated on for congenital malformations of the urinary tract (CMUT).

Methods. Study design – retrospective, observational, cohort. Inclusion criteria were CMUT, glomerular filtration rate (GFR) <90 ml/min/1.73 m2. Age younger than 18 years of age. The study included 297 patients. Statistical processing of research results was carried out using the software package Statistica 6.0. and MedCalc (MedCalc Software, Belgium).

Results. We identified that only glomerular filtration rate during the initial hospitalization (ОR = 9.40) and arterial hypertension (OR = 4.40) were independent predictors of CKD progression. The combination of these two variant showed the area under the ROC curve (0.756), significantly (p < 0.005) higher than the isolated value of these symptoms.

Authors: Budarova Kristina V , Shmakov Aleksey N , Sirota Sergey I
Published: August 2017

Background. Blood lactate level is often considered as a marker of complex metabolic disorders. Reducing the lactate’s level is a good indicator of therapy adequacy. The purpose: to show the significance of the determination of lactate for predicting the course of the postoperative period in newborns.

Materials and methods. 77 infants with abdominal surgical pathology were included in an observational study. Lactate level was measured on admission to the intensive care unit and three times in the first seven days of the postoperative period.

Results. ROC-analysis model showed a high predictive value of the indicator at the end of the first postoperative day and on the seventh day. Favorable outсome was connected with lactate ratio below 2.5 mmmol/L on admission, lower than 2.0 mmol/l in the third and seventh days. Point elevation to 3 mmol/l was marked at the end of the first postoperative day.

Conclusion. It is advisable to manage a dynamic assessment of lactatemia at the end of the first day and to the end of the third day of the postoperative period.

Published: August 2017

Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide. Breast cancer is also the second leading cause of cancer death among women in the United States after lung cancer with over 40,000 breast cancer deaths occurring each year.

The purpose of this research was to determine the all-cause mortality of applicants diagnosed with breast cancer currently or at some time in the past.

Life insurance applicants with reported breast cancer were extracted from data covering United States residents between November 2007 and November 2014. Information about these applicants was matched to the Social Security Death Master (SSDMF) file for deaths occurring from 2007 to 2011 and to another commercially available death source file (Other Death Source, ODS) for deaths occurring from 2007 to 2014 to determine vital status. If there was a death from the other death source, then the SSDMF was searched to verify the death.

The study had approximately 561,000 person-years of exposure.

Actual-to-expected (A/E) mortality ratios were calculated using the Society of Actuaries 2008 Valuation Basic Table (2008VBT), select and ultimate table (age last birthday) and the 2010 US population as expected mortality ratios. Since the A/Es presented in this paper were known to be an underestimate due to the exclusion of the recent SSDMF deaths, comparative analysis of the mortality ratios was done. Since there was no smoking status information in this study, all expected bases were not smoker distinct.

Overall, the 35-44 age group had 6.3 times the relative mortality ratio than those in the 65-75 age group. The relative mortality ratio for the 35-44 age group applicants, when cancer severity was accounted for in combination with 3 or more nodes of cancer involvement, was 29.3 times that when compared to those in the 65-75 age group having localized cancer, where no nodes are involved.

The 35-44 age group applicants who were diagnosed with cancer within the last year had over 10-fold increase in relative mortality ratios compared to the 65-75 age group, who were over 10 years from diagnosis. Taking the severity of cancer along with time from diagnosis showed over a 12 times relative mortality ratio between the low rate of over 10 years from diagnosis and localized involvement to those diagnosed within the last year having 3 or more nodes with cancer.

Applicant age, time since diagnosis and cancer severity were the most significant variables to predict the relative mortality ratios.
Atypical mycobacterial infection in post laparoscopy surgical wounds: our observations and review of literature
Authors: Krishnappa Rohit , Samarasam Inian
Published: August 2017

Background: Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are a rare cause of chronic surgical infection in humans. These infections are commonly seen in the setting of laparoscopic surgery, due to poor sterilization techniques. This case series analyses the clinical features and management of patients with biopsy proven NTM infection, with a review of the current literature.Methods: Patients with chronic surgical site infections admitted to our surgical unit, over a 5-year period from January 2008 to December 2012 were analyzed in this study. A total of 24 patients with biopsy proven NTM were included. The clinical details, management protocol is discussed.Results: A total of 24 patients were analysed. Most of our patients were females (n=16) and this infection was most commonly seen following laparoscopic cholecystectomy (n=10). The symptoms were usually benign but persistent watery or purulent discharge. Mycobacterium fortuitum and Mycobacterium chelonae were the predominant organisms isolated. All patients in this series were treated with extensive surgical debridement and long-term antibiotics. A multidrug antibiotic regimen consisting of Ciprofloxacin, Clarithromycin and Amikacin was used. All of our patients showed good response to treatment during stay and recurrence was seen in 3 patients who had delayed healing wounds.Conclusions: NTM is not an uncommon infection and can occur following laparoscopic or open surgical procedures. Improper sterilization and reuse of laparoscopic or open instruments accounts for the majority of the cases. When laparoscopic instruments are reused, following strict sterilization protocols is necessary to prevent this infection. When established, this infection should be treated aggressively with adequate surgical debridement, followed by long term antibiotics.
A pilot study to evaluate the efficacy of fibrin glue in attaching full thickness skin graft in repair of cicatricial ectropion
Authors: Vichare Nitin V. , Singh Jaswinder
Published: August 2017

Background: Traditionally, sutures are used to attach skin graft. Periocular skin reconstruction is peculiar in respect of constant movement of the graft bed due to lid movements. This study was aimed at evaluating the use of fibrin glue in skin graft for cicatricial ectropion.Methods: This was prospective, non-randomized, interventional study. Total 10 patients with cicatricial ectropion were recruited. After dissection of scar, skin defect was covered with full thickness post auricular graft. Fibrin glue used to attach the graft over host bed. Bolster tied and bandage applied. Patients were evaluated for graft stability, opposition of graft host junction and graft uptake.Results: The mean age was 30.9 years. Patients were divided into three groups i.e. 20-30 years, 30-40 years and 40-50 years. There were 05 patients (50%) in first group, 03 patients (30%) in second group and 02 patients (20%) in third group. Majority (90%) were male. Following injury 70% patients reported between 1-3 years. Grade 3 ectropion was most common (60%). Average duration of surgery was 79.3 min (standard deviation of 14.15 min). Horizontal dimensions of graft, 32 mm maximum and 26 mm minimum (average 29 mm). Vertical dimensions of graft, 18 mm maximum and 12 mm minimum (average 15 mm). Graft uptake was complete in all cases. No cases of graft infection or necrosis. However, 03 patients had residual ectropion.Conclusions: Use of fibrin glue in attaching full thickness skin graft is an effective and safe technique with good uptake and stable graft host junction.

Authors: A. Palachandra , D. Ishwaraprasad G. , Y. Sreelatha C. , M. Sumana
Published: August 2017

Background: The burden of breast cancer is increasing in both developed and developing countries; the peak occurrence of breast cancer in developed countries is above the age of 50 whereas in India it is above the age of 40. Reproductive factors contribute most to the development of breast cancer. Nulliparity, more age at first live birth and no breastfeeding are major reproductive risk factors for breast cancer in the developed countries. The role of reproductive factors in the development of breast cancer in Indian population is different as compared with that seen in the western population. Objective of this study was to find out some of the various risk factors of breast cancer among patients attending the tertiary care hospital in Hassan.Methods: The case control study was conducted at surgery wards of Sri Chamarajendra district hospital which is a teaching hospital. The calculated number of cases was 110, including 110 controls total 220 individuals were included in the study. A case was defined as any female patient histopathologically confirmed to have breast cancer.Results: The maximum cases (38%) were between 51 to 60 years of age group. Age at menarche, age at first child birth, age at marriage and age at menopause reported significant risk for breast cancer.Conclusions: Information, education and communication activities regarding these risk factors, early signs and symptoms of breast carcinoma, and breast self‑examination should be imparted to the women to create awareness about this fatal disease.

Published: August 2017

Incidence of Phylloids tumor of the breast is between 0.5% to 2% of all breast tumors. Most common age of occurrence is between 45-49 years but it can occur even at younger age. It is important to distinguish it from more benign tumors of the breast like fibroadenoma as far the management is concerned. Phylloids are fibroepethilial tumors with malignant potential, so needs complete excision. We present a case of 53 years female who underwent simple mastectomy for high grade Phylloids tumor in her right breast a year back, presented with breathlessness and local recurrence, proved to be metastatic Phylloids to lung causing left pleural effusion and nodule in the right upper lobe of lung. When the effusion was tapped it appeared to be pleomorphic spindle cell metastasis.

Video Game Navigation: A Classification System for Navigational Acts
Authors: Debus Michael S.
Published: August 2017

Navigation in video games has been a vastly neglected topic in game studies. In this paper a classification system for navigational acts has been developed through theoretical work as well as the analysis of multiple games. The result is an exclusive five-step classification system. Moreover, the development showed that navigational acts are highly dependent on the environment in which they occur. The system is a first step towards a deeper understanding of how the player navigates the gameworld, instead of what she navigates.
Mapping Market-Based Accounting Research in Indonesia: Graphics and Guidelines for Future Research
Authors: Suhardianto Novrys , Subroto Bambang , Chandrarin Grahita
Published: August 2017

The purpose of this study is to describe the development of market based accounting research (MBAR) published in Indonesia for 10 years. This study attempts to explain the topics of MBAR, research method used, the variables, between-variable relationship formed, and the units analysis used in MBAR. This research uses qualitative-descriptive method to create descriptive models of MBAR articles published in accounting journals that have been accredited with minimum grade of B. The analysis of 109 MBAR articles of five accounting journals shows that 10 MBAR themes are still potential. Among three methods in MBAR, the multivariate association study is dominant. Some papers use intervening and moderating model to explore the relationship between accounting data and capital market reaction. The results for each theme are described in a research map that shows the relationship between variables (constructs) of MBAR from three units of analysis. This paper finds some implications to MBAR research agenda in the future, especially for meta-analysis research and triangulation research, due to many inconsistencies of the MBAR findings in Indonesia. In addition, accounting standard research topic is still promising in the moment of accounting standards transition.

PROUNI E O ACESSO DE ESTUDANTES NEGROS AO ENSINO SUPERIOR.
Authors: Almeida Wilson Mesquita
Published: August 2017

O artigo faz um exame do papel do Programa Universidade para Todos (ProUni) no acesso da população negra ao ensino superior. Mesmo enfrentando diversos obstáculos, as universidades públicas e, por meio de bolsas, algumas poucas universidades de caráter confessional constituíam locais quase exclusivos nos quais o negro brasileiro conseguia adentrar quando buscava estudos em nível superior. Com o ProUni, em 2005, estudantes negros e de baixa renda passam a dispor da opção de ingresso nas universidades privadas brasileiras. Procuraremos ao longo do texto recuperar historicamente tal processo, realizar uma análise comparativa entre os períodos, traçar os avanços obtidos e delinear os desafios envolvidos no ingresso da população negra por meio do ProUni.
