Metacognitive Awareness of Using Reading Strategies by TESOL Postgraduates Intakes 11 and 12 at Ho Chi Minh City Open University
Authors: Thuy Nguyen Thi Thu
Published: January 2020

Metacognitive awareness of reading strategies is significantly important for language learners at all levels, including TESOL postgraduates, as it can help them enhance their reading comprehension ability. However, if there is any one ignored or less frequently used strategy, reading comprehension definitely weakens. This study, therefore, aimed at investigating metacognitive awareness of using reading strategies by the TESOL postgraduates Intakes 11 and 12 at Ho Chi Minh City Open University, Vietnam. The current study adopted features of a mixed-methods research design to collect data in depth and breadth. A sample of eighty-one TESOL postgraduates Intakes 11 and 12 was recruited for the current study. Their awareness and factuality of using metacognitive strategies in reading process was elucidated through two instruments of a thirty-eight-item questionnaire and a five-question semi-structured interview. Then the questionnaire data were quantitatively analyzed and the interview data were qualitatively analyzed. The results of this study indicated that perils of using metacognitive strategies in reading process seemed to outweigh merits of this implementation. In addition, some metacognitive reading strategies were neglected by some TESOL postgraduates, that is, using context clues, guessing the text content, and critically analyzing and evaluating the text information (global group), discussing with others, self-questioning, and paraphrasing (support group). The study was closed by a brief conclusion of key findings.

Published: January 2020

As variações climáticas estão em alterações constantes conforme o decorrer dos anos. Neste artigo, almeja-se avaliar a hipótese do crescimento da precipitação com o passar dos anos, perante a análise de dados históricos fornecidos pelas estações pluviométricas que integram o PCJ, no qual pode ser utilizado o método de Gumbel para a obtenção do valor máximo de precipitação para um determinado intervalo de 20 anos e período de retorno (Tr) também de 20 anos. Entende-se que as bacias hidrográficas e as conformações de drenagens que compõem as áreas de estudo, venham a sofrer um grande impacto devido à alta incidência dos raios solares nos oceanos provocados pelo efeito estufa, o que proporciona uma maior liberação de vapor d'água no circuito da corrente Amazônica, aumentando assim a precipitação nas estações pluviométricas da Bacia PCJ (Piracicaba, Capivari e Jundiaí). Nota-se um aumento significativo da precipitação em mais da metade das estações analisadas, fato que pode comprovar que há interferência das alterações climáticas nessa região.
Saúde financeira dos colaboradores: gestão da qualidade de vida no trabalho
Authors: Harder Eliana Martuccello , Braga Hilda Maria Cordeiro Barroso
Published: January 2020

O estudo se fundamenta na análise da crise econômica brasileira, iniciada em 2014, que expôs grande parcela da população a sacrifícios para manter o padrão de vida minimamente digno e gerou aumento do endividamento pessoal. Neste cenário surge o chamado estresse financeiro que, quando manifestado por funcionários de empresas, compromete o seu desempenho profissional. A pesquisa avalia, por meio de levantamento de campo, a presença ou não de estresse financeiro comprometendo o desempenho profissional dos colaboradores das empresas, principalmente da região Bragantina, sob a ótica dos gestores de RH, e identifica como as empresas lidam com estas questões e se adotam medidas preventivas para minimizá-las. Os resultados mostram que o principal problema financeiro apontado é o aumento com dívidas dos funcionários (56,6%) e o maior impacto disso é a queda da produtividade (71,7%). Porém, somente 26,1% das empresas promovem ações de educação financeira para os funcionários, embora entendam que ações preventivas ajudariam a melhorar a qualidade de vida dos funcionários (63%), mas sem reflexos no aumento da produtividade (41%). Estes resultados indicam a importância das finanças pessoais para as empresas e os colaboradores, garantindo maior qualidade de vida para os funcionários e, indiretamente, podendo melhorar a produtividade para as empresas. No entanto, os investimentos em educação financeira não são expressivos, já que a percepção é de não haver retorno financeiro para a empresa.

Authors: Canteri Bianca Teixeira , Espinha Tatiana Gomez
Published: January 2020

O presente artigo apresenta uma pesquisa realizada em 2016 que teve como objetivo compreender a experiência da superação de atletas profissionais e amadores a partir de uma perspectiva fenomenológica. As entrevistas e análises realizadas com atletas do Jiu Jitsu ajudaram a compreender o fenômeno da superação. A superação relacionou-se a uma experiência positiva, que proporciona ganhos e se estende para fora do contexto esportivo, e que tendo o limite como característica essencial atribui valor à prática esportiva em si. O atleta que passa a reconhecer seus limites ao ser desafiado relaciona-se com aspectos existenciais da vida estudados pela Psicologia de referencial fenomenológico.

Authors: Romanova O. A.
Published: January 2020

The article substantiates the relevance of scientific analysis of the composition of town-planning relations for further development of legal regulation of town-planning and increase in efficiency of law enforcement activities in the field of urban planning. Based on the study of scientific sources, the author concludes that there is insufficient legal research in the field of legal regulation of urban planning. The paper shows the legal and scientific significance of studying the composition and specifics of town-planning relations for the further development of town-planning legislation and the formation of town-planning law. On the basis of the system analysis of the current town-planning and related legislation, the author provides for the legal characteristics of subjects and objects of town-planning legal relations taking into account the specifics of urban planning activity depending on their particular type, their features, problems of definition and identification, differentiation from related legal relations. The author proposes a possible classification of subjects and objects of town-planning relations depending on the type of town-planning activity and their nature.
Psychological and Pedagogical Support for the Prosecutors Professional Training
Authors: Shabarov D. V. , Gubin V. A. , Moldovanov A. V.
Published: January 2020

The relevance of the study lies in the lack of a prosecutors training program in psychological and pedagogical support. The goal is to develop a toolkit for researching the understanding of prosecutorial activities among persons with a higher legal education and a comprehensive program for training newly admitted prosecutorial officers of the prosecutor’s office of the Russian Federation for various types of supervisory activities. The methods and techniques used in the development of the diagnostic materials “Understanding the prosecutor’s activities” and the Comprehensive program for the training of newly adopted prosecutorial staff of the prosecutor’s office of the Russian Federation for various types of supervisory activities: method of expert assessments, comparative analysis, method of two portraits. 50 graduates of the departmental university of the prosecutor’s office of the Russian Federation and non-departmental law schools, as well as 10 prosecutors — highly qualified and experienced professionals, who acted as experts, took part in the study of ideas about prosecutorial activity. The paper presents the results of the study of ideas about prosecutorial activity among various categories of prosecutors. The authors used their own diagnostic materials “Understanding the prosecutor’s activities”, consisting of five methods developed and tested based on the St. Petersburg prosecutor’s office. The methods make it possible to determine the understanding of and focus on prosecutorial activities for persons with higher legal education, as well as to create an individual professional educational route for improving existing knowledge, skills and abilities within the framework of the Comprehensive Program for the Training of Newly Accepted Prosecutors of the Prosecutor’s Office of the Russian Federation for various types of supervisory activities. The presented diagnostic materials and program have found their application and are being successfully implemented in practice in the prosecutor’s offices of several constituent entities of the Russian Federation. The methods included in the diagnostic complex can be useful for district, specialized prosecutors, mentors of young specialists of the bodies and institutions of the prosecutor’s office of the Russian Federation, when deciding on the formation of an individual plan of training and education of newly adopted prosecutors. Personnel divisions of bodies and institutions of the prosecutor’s office of the Russian Federation can apply the presented comprehensive training program in order to improve knowledge and professional development of both newly admitted prosecutors and those who have changed the direction of their supervisory activities. A practice-oriented approach involves mastering the comprehensive program both independently and in organized forms of training (lectures, seminars, etc.) based on city, district and specialized prosecutors, prosecutors of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation.
Evaluation of Ground-Motion Models for U.S. Geological Survey Seismic Hazard Forecasts: Hawaii Tectonic Earthquakes and Volcanic Eruptions

Published: January 2020

The selection and weighting of ground-motion models (GMMs) introduces a significant source of uncertainty in U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Seismic Hazard Modeling Project (NSHMP) forecasts. In this study, we evaluate 18 candidate GMMs using instrumental ground-motion observations of horizontal peak ground acceleration (PGA) and 5%-damped pseudospectral acceleration (0.02–10 s) for tectonic earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, to inform logic-tree weights for the update of the USGS seismic hazard model for Hawaii. GMMs are evaluated using two methods. The first is a total residual visualization approach that compares the probability density function (PDF), mean and standard deviations σ, of the observed and predicted ground motion. The second GMM evaluation method we use is the common total residual probabilistic scoring method (log likelihood [LLH]). The LLH method provides a single score that can be used to weight GMMs in the Hawaii seismic hazard model logic trees. The total residual PDF approach provides additional information by preserving GMM over- and underprediction across a broad spectrum of periods that is not available from a single value LLH score. We apply these GMM evaluation methods to two different data sets: (1) a database of instrumental ground motions from historic earthquakes in Hawaii from 1973 to 2007 (Mw 4–7.3) and (2) available ground motions from recent earthquakes (Mw 4–6.9) associated with 2018 Kilauea eruptions. The 2018 Kilauea sequence contains both volcanic eruptions and tectonic earthquakes allowing for statistically significant GMM comparisons of the two event classes. The Kilauea ground observations provide an independent data set allowing us to evaluate the predictive power of GMMs implemented in the new USGS nshmp-haz software system. We evaluate GMM performance as a function of earthquake depth and we demonstrate that short-period volcanic eruption ground motions are not well predicted by any candidate GMMs. Nine of the initial 18 candidate GMMs fit the observed ground motions and meet established criteria for inclusion in the update of the Hawaii seismic hazard model. A weighted mean of four top performing GMMs in this study (NGAsubslab, NGAsubinter, ASK14, A10) is 50% lower for PGA than for GMMS used in the previous USGS seismic hazard model for Hawaii.
Temporal variations of trends in the Central England Temperature series
Authors: González-Hidalgo J.C. , Peña-Angulo D. , Beguería S.
Published: January 2020

Variations in trend rates of annual values of the Central England Temperature series (CET) over the period1659-2017 were analysed using moving windows of different length, to identify the minimum period in which the trend expresses a climate signal not hidden by the noise produced by natural variability. Trend rates exhibit high variability and irregular shifting from positive to negative values unless very long window lengths (of 100 years or more) are used. In general, as the duration of the length of the temporal window analysed increases, the absolute range of the trend rates decreases and the signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio increases. The relationship between the S/N ratio and the window length also depended on the total length of the series, so high S/N values are achieved faster when shorter time series are considered. This prevents suggesting a minimum window length for undertaking trend analyses.A comparison between CET and the average continental series in the Berkeley Earth Surface Temperature (BEST) database in their common period (1753-2017) repeats the patterns described for 1659-2017, although the average values of the rates, ranges and the "threshold period" in years change, and are more variable in CET than in BEST.Analysis of both series suggests that the recent warming started early and can be linked to the recovery of temperatures after the Little Ice Age. This process has characterised by progressively increasing trend rates, but also includes periods of deceleration or even negative trends spanning less than 50 years. The behaviour of the two long-term temperature records analysed agrees with a long-term persistence (LTP) process. We estimated the Hurst exponent of the CET series to be around 0.72 and 0.8, which reinforces the LTP hypothesis. This implies that the currently widespread statistical framework assuming a stationary, short-memory process in which departures from the norm can be easily assessed by monotonic trend analysis should not be accepted for long climatic series. In brief, relevant questions relative to the recent evolution of temperatures such as the distinction between natural variability and departures from stationarity; attribution of the causes of variability at different time scales; determination of the shortest window length to detect a trend; and other similar ones have still not been answered and may require adoption of an alternative analytical framework.
COURT’S STUDY AND ASSESSMENT OF EVIDENCE IN A CRIMINAL CASE WITH AN INDICTMENT
Authors: Markovicheva E. V.
Published: January 2020

The article discusses the main problems associated with a courts consideration of a criminal case received after a shortened inquiry. The purpose of the article is to review features of the courts study and assessment of evidence in this category of criminal cases. The author substantiates the need to preserve accelerated proceedings in Russian criminal proceedings, but insists on certain advantages of changing the regulatory model of reduced inquiry. The main attention in the article is given to contradictions in the normative regulation of the trial of criminal cases received by the court with an indictment. The article analyzes some features of substantiation in this category of criminal cases both in pre-trial and in judicial proceedings. Theoretical material is illustrated by examples from judicial practice. The author suggests changing the court proceedings on this category of criminal cases, reducing the list of grounds for returning the criminal case to the prosecutor, and expanding the rights of the accused.
SPECIAL PROCEDURE OF THE TRIAL WITH THE CONSENT OF THE ACCUSED TO THE CHARGE: PROBLEMS OF APPLICATION IN A NUMBER OF CASES
Authors: Kuvaldina Ju. V.
Published: January 2020

The article considers the problem related with the application of a special procedure for the trial in a number of cases. Its urgency is determined by the introduction in the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation by the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation of the draft Federal Law № 690652-7, which proposes to apply the simplified procedure provided for in Chapter 40 of the Criminal Procedure Code of Russian Federation only in cases of crimes of petty and medium gravity. The Prosecutor General of the Russian Federation supports the initiative of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation. The article analyzes the provisions of bills introduced over the past seventeen years in the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation, which proposed both narrowing down and expanding the range of application for the special procedure of trial in a number of cases, the opinion of law enforcement officers and scientists on this issue; methods used by prosecutors and public prosecutors in order to reduce the percentage of application of procedure provided for in Chapter 40 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation; the judges attitude to this position of state representatives on the side of prosecution. The author concludes that the initiative of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation only aims to reduce the number of sentences decided in a special order and has nothing to do with protecting persons accused of serious crimes. The authors conclusions are based on analysis of the results of research of criminal cases, which were prosecuted in a general procedure instead of a special one, a survey of judges and prosecutors and illustrated with specific examples. It is proposed that formulation of Part 1 of Article 314 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation should be kept so far as it relates to the range of cases in which a sentence may be judged in a special order.
LEGAL NIHILISM IN THE ACTIVITIES OF THE INVESTIGATOR AS A NEGATIVE FACTOR THAT DIRECTLY AFFECTS THE RESULT OF THE INVESTIGATION OF THE CRIME
Authors: Konin V. V.
Published: January 2020

Criminal proceedings are one of the forms of the state exercising its power in ensuring the security of society from criminal encroachments. One of the pressing problems in the field of law enforcement today, which requires its resolution, is the problem of legal nihilism of participants in criminal proceedings. Quite a large number of publications are devoted to the issues of abuse by participants of criminal proceedings of their rights. But at the same time, questions of abuse of the rights by the investigator, and also the head of investigative body, during investigation of the criminal case, manifestation of legal nihilism at implementation of the procedural powers remain insufficiently investigated. The legal nihilism inherent in investigators seriously complicates the fight against crime, discredits not only the preliminary investigation, but also the entire law enforcement system as a whole. The article deals with the issues of investigative errors and abuse of law by the investigator in the investigation of a criminal case.
FEATURES OF THE NATURE OF THE ADVERSARIAL PRINCIPLE IN THE RUSSIAN JUSTICE
Authors: Marina Е. V.
Published: January 2020

The article discusses various approaches to the disclosure of the content of the concept of competition. It is concluded that the traditional Russian and, above all, Soviet understanding of the principle of competition differs from the classical Roman principle of competition. The principle of competition, enshrined in the criminal procedure law of Russia, includes, in addition to the traditional element-the parties having the right to be heard, also an active court, which must ensure equal conditions for the parties in the course of justice, must comprehend the truth and at the same time remain an independent and neutral arbitrator. Such an approach is acceptable, it fits into the legal consciousness of the law enforcement officer, but under one condition, if the implementation of such a model of justice, the goal of the criminal process is achieved-respect for human rights and freedoms. However, the constantly changing criminal procedure legislation indicates that the current system does not allow to fully implement in practice the ideas that are enshrined in the law. This means that the principle of competition, its content can still be and perhaps should be revised, focusing not only on the traditions of our legal system, but also on European traditions.
INDIRECT COGNITION IN CREATIVE HERITAGE OF S. A. SHEYFER
Authors: Zaitseva Е. А.
Published: January 2020

The article analyses the contribution of S. A. Sheyfer to the development of criminal procedure exercises on proof, cognition and investigative actions. The phenomenon of indirect cognition in the structure of criminal procedure proving is considered. The author, when analyzing this form of cognition, relies on an instrumental approach to understanding mediated cognition of meaningful information. The article discusses whether the judicial examination is an investigative action. It is justified that during the forensic examination the investigator carries out cognitive operations through a judicial expert. It is shown that not only the actions of the investigator are included in the structure of the investigative action the appointment and production of judicial examination, but also the research carried out by the judicial expert is also carried out in criminal procedure. During the study, the expert implements his criminal procedure status by entering into appropriate legal relations with the investigator. The author polemizes with scientists who deny that the judicial examination has the properties of an investigative action.
MULTI-VECTOR DEVELOPMENT OF RUSSIAN CRIMINAL JUSTICE – A PARADOX OR A PATTERN?
Authors: Shadrin V. S.
Published: January 2020

The article draws attention to the introduction of amendments and additions to the criminal procedure law in order to improve criminal proceedings, often of the opposite nature both aimed at protecting the person involved in the criminal proceedings, including as a suspected accused, defendant, and to increase opportunities criminal prosecution of these persons. The leading role in determining the vectors of development of criminal proceedings belongs, of course, to the criminal procedure policy developed by the relevant state bodies, but the criminal procedure policy has not yet led to the creation of a clear, well-defined concept of the development of the domestic criminal process. An example of inconsistency and insufficient reasonableness of legislative decisions is the current attitude of the legislator to the formation of the procedural status of the prosecutor. A clear definition of the ways of development of domestic criminal proceedings is due to the need for a clear choice of the model of the criminal process.
S. A. SHEYFER CONCEPT ON THE INVESTIGATIVE ACTIONS COGNITIVE ORIENTATION: PROBLEMS AND PROSPECTS (ON THE 95TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE TEACHER)
Authors: Rossinskiy S. B.
Published: January 2020

The article analyzes and evaluates the results of professor S. A. Sheyfers scientific research, that relate to the formation of the concept of cognitive orientation of investigative actions. The author believes: S. A. Sheyfers fundamental work was allowed to form the correct notion of investigative actions, which are means of establishing circumstances relevant to the criminal case, and to distinguish them from other procedural actions that are in the arsenal of modern preliminary investigation bodies. The author remains generally a follower of S. A. Sheyfer. But at the same time he draws attention to the debatability of some of the positions expressed by him, gives them an assessment and offers his own options for solving existing problems.
ABOUT CRIMINAL AND PROCEDURAL FUNCTIONS OF THE INVESTIGATOR
Authors: Ashirbekova M. T.
Published: January 2020

The article considers the issue of criminal procedural functions of an investigator. It is emphasized that the position of the legislator, who suggested the investigator the only function of the prosecution, is methodologically unjustified, since the criminal process is a jurisdictional law-enforcement process, the very existence of which is caused by the need to apply criminal law to resolve criminal law conflicts. It is proved that the investigator performs the functions stipulated by the logic of the stages of applying the law: establishing the actual basis of the case establishing the legal basis resolving the enforcement decision. The first stage of the application of law corresponds to enforcement actions that characterize the function of the investigation. At the next two stages, depending on the results of the investigation, the prosecution functions or the law enforcement function are implemented. In the legal assessment of established factual circumstances as grounds for criminal liability, the function of the prosecution is realized. In the absence of such grounds, a law enforcement function. It is also noted that the addressees of the law-enforcement function, except for the accused, are all private individuals involved in the criminal process. In this regard, the law enforcement function is universal.
Protein kinase inhibitors--potential chemotherapeutic agents.
Authors: Shugar D
Published: January 2020

Protein kinase inhibitors, widely exploited for elucidation of the biological functions of kinases, have more recently come under active consideration as potential chemotherapeutic agents for tumour and other diseases. A brief overview is presented of diverse approaches to the design and development of selective protein kinase inhibitors, and related problems such as donor and acceptor specificities, stereochemical aspects, emerging relationships between protein, sugar and nucleoside kinases. In particular, and contrary to popular belief that ATP-competitive inhibitors cannot be selective because of the close homology of the ATP catalytic sites, numerous examples are presented of such inhibitors which are both potent and selective for a given kinase or class of kinases. Some of these are undergoing preclinical trials. Attention is also directed to the role of cellular and viral protein kinases in the life cycle of viruses, and the potential of these enzymes, especially those encoded by, and essential for replication of, a given virus as targets for antiviral chemotherapy.

Published: January 2020

Anthraquinone derivatives are important anti-cancer drugs possessing, however, undesirable peroxidating and, in consequence, cardiotoxic properties. This results from the mediation by these compounds of the one-electron reduction processes of the oxygen molecule, which produces the highly toxic superoxide anion radical and other active oxygen species. This article summarizes the results of our studies on the molecular aspects of the mechanism of anthraquinone-mediated peroxidation which were carried out using enzymatic-assay, electrochemical, and quantum-mechanical methods.
Multiple drug resistance in Candida albicans.
Authors: Prasad R , Murthy S K , Gupta V , Prasad R
Published: January 2020

By functional complementation of a PDR 5 (pleiotropic drug resistance) null mutant of S. cerevisiae, we have recently cloned and sequenced a multidrug resistance gene CDR 1 (Candida Drug Resistance). Transformation by CDR 1 of a PDR 5 disrupted host hypersensitive to cycloheximide and chloramphenicol resulted in resistance to these as well as other unrelated drugs. The nucleotide sequence of CDR 1 revealed that, like PDR 5, it encodes a putative membrane pump belonging to the ABC superfamily. CDR 1 encodes a protein of 169.9 kDa whose predicted structural organisation is characterised by two homologous halves, each comprising a hydrophobic region, with a set of six transmembrane stretches, preceded by a hydrophilic binding fold. We now have evidence to suggest that there are several PDR homologues present in C. albicans which display multidrug resistance and a collateral sensitivity pattern different from PDR 5 and CDR 1. The functions of such genes and their products in the overall physiology of C. albicans is not yet established.

Authors: Lima Alves Cerdeira Ana Karina
Published: January 2020

A superlotação hospitalar minimiza a qualidade da assistência, elevando os custos, insatisfação dos usuários e profissionais, formando um ciclo vicioso. Esse é um problema mundial, que serve como desafio para os usuários do SUS e seus gestores. Nas organizações hospitalares a metodologia Kanban está sendo adaptada como um instrumento para avaliação da qualidade assistencial, melhorias de fluxos e indicadores, sendo uma excelente ferramenta de apoio à gestão de leitos, permitindo otimização da oferta, redução de índice de permanência hospitalar, aumento da rotatividade dos leitos e de resolutividades no processo assistencial. Tem-se como objetivo deste estudo desenvolver um sistema para gestão de leitos do Hospital Universitário Professor Edgard Santos - HUPES a fim de monitorar o tempo de permanência do paciente, utilizando a metodologia Kanban como estratégia de trabalho. O método trata-se de uma pesquisa aplicada para um processo de desenvolvimento ágil do sistema baseado no OpenUP, compreendendo quatro fases: concepção, requisitos, elaboração e execução de forma interativa e cíclica, empregando-se o conceito arquitetural de camadas - MVC. Estabelece critérios de classificação por cores para a elaboração do painel de Monitoramento – vermelha, amarela ou verde, conforme a metodologia Kanban, calculando os dias de permanência do paciente na internação, direcionados pela competência e código SIGTAP, informado na Autorização de Internamento Hospitalar – AIH. Como resultado, a implementação desse método em conjunto com o sistema, qualificou o gerenciamento do cuidado, monitorando os pacientes internados nas unidades assistenciais, permitindo e descrevendo as características da complexidade quanto ao tempo de permanência, para auxiliar na gestão dos leitos e na produção de indicadores de cada unidade. Como conclusão, identificou-se o tempo de uso dos leitos ocupados, avaliação da qualidade da assistência, o que favorece os indicadores administrativos e de qualidade para o monitoramento do processo de internamento, proporcionando com isso, a desospitalização.
ESTUDO DE REVISÃO SOBRE GERENCIAMENTO DE ÓRTESES, PRÓTESES E MATERIAIS ESPECIAIS PARA APLICAÇÃO EM UMA INSTITUIÇÃO DE SAÚDE
Authors: Lopes de Souza Pinheiro Liane
Published: January 2020

As OPMEs fazem parte de uma categoria ampla de materiais utilizados na realização de procedimentos médicos, odontológicos e fisioterápicos. Atualmente é responsável por grandes avanços na prestação da assistência à saúde, em contrapartida proporciona impacto financeiro, onerando a saúde, visto serem considerados produtos de alto custo. Desta forma, a necessidade de desenvolver estratégias com objetivo de estudar e descrever a importância e atuais características do gerenciamento de OPMEs em instituições de saúde, buscando avaliar o estado atual do conhecimento e identificar benefícios, dificuldades e desafios. A revisão da literatura foi realizada a partir de bases de dados PubMed, LILACS, SCOPUS e Google Scholar, sendo incluídos artigos científicos publicados no período de 2003 a 2019. Foi verificado que as instituições hospitalares apresentam grande fragilidade gerencial, refletindo em combinação de altos custos e baixa qualidade na assistência à saúde. Com relação a gestão de OPME, existe algumas portarias, manuais e instrumentos que orientam a gestão. Contudo, é possível verificar que são diversas as dificuldades que interferem na prática. A padronização de processos, o controle do fluxo e do estoque e a capacidade de captar e processar as informações pertinentes ao processo de trabalho são requisitos fundamentais no gerenciamento de OPME. Como tendência, observou-se claramente que a utilização da tecnologia da informação, através dos sistemas de gestão em saúde, é o caminho a ser adotado. Essa afirmação é fundamentada no fato de que a pesquisa realizada mostrou que os hospitais com os modelos de gestão conjugados com eficientes sistemas de TI, tiveram os seguintes benefícios: melhoria do gerenciamento de OPMEs, melhorias relacionadas ao fluxo de comunicação, padronização de processos, produção de indicadores para a gestão, rastreabilidade de dispositivos, redução dos custos. Além disso, foi observado um maior controle no fluxo de trabalho, minimizando os riscos de roubos e fraudes no faturamento.

Struvite/Magnesium ammonium phosphate (MAP) is common causes of feline urolithiasis. Prevent the formation of MAP crystallization can be treated by adjusting the pH urine in acid conditions. Urine with an acid pH will decrease struvite activity product (SAP) by preventing the phosphate deprotonation process which is the main constituent of struvite components. This study aims to determine the potential of a combination of ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) and ascorbic acid to decrease SAP by retain the urine pH under normal conditions. Twelve male cats, 2-5 years old and body weight 3.0 ± 0.8 kg were diagnosed struvite urolithiasis used for this study. Cats have a9clinical history of hematuria, dysuria, polyuria, and stranguria. Diagnosis of urolithiasis performed by clinical examination, USG, x-rays, and urinalysis. Cats that found struvite urolith, treated with 200 mg/kg NH4Cl and 100 mg/kg ascorbic acid orally twice a day. The research objects were observed included urine pH and crystaluria density. The data were analyzed using analisis of varian. The result of this study showed NH4Cl and ascorbic acid treatment can decrease the urine pH at 8 cats (89%) with an average pH 6.3 ± 0.3. Microscopic examination of the urine showed the struvite crystallization more infrequently than before therapy. The study concluded that the combination of NH4Cl and asam askorbat can lower the urine pH and reduce struvite crystal density in the urine.

Authors: Polastrini Leandro Faustino , Neves Luciene
Published: January 2020

Buscamos neste artigo realizar uma análise sobre os termos normalidade, anormalidade, corporalidade central e periférica através do filme “Pieles” (2017) do diretor espanhol Eduardo Casanova. Para realizar este trabalho utilizamos a metodologia bibliográfica e análise fílmica. Destarte, apresentamos a descrição sobre o filme e algumas personagens, desenvolvemos uma discussão teórica e fechamos com análises sobre o filme e as considerações finais. Concluímos que não são as diferenças corpóreas, sejam elas anomalias ou mutações congênitas que definem os lugares e funções desses corpos diferentes na sociedade, mas sim os padrões, normas e convenções construídas histórico-socialmente.

External public debt and economic growth in Morocco: assessment and impacts
Authors: Nor-Eddine Oumansour , Driss Chkiriba
Published: January 2020

This paper has the aim to study the impact of the external public debt on the economic growth in Morocco. The estimates cover the period 1988-2016. The econometric instrument used for estimating the model parameters is based on the "ARDL bound testing" method. The results confirm the high public debt has a negative and largely significant effect on the economic growth, for the short as well as for the long term. The effect is much more important in the short term than in the long term. The results corroborate most studies stating that the external debt has a negative impact on economic growth.

O APAGAMENTO DO SENTIDO JORNALÍSTICO DE CONSTRUÇÃO COLETIVA PELA INDIVIDUAÇÃO: “Obrigado por suas informações!”
Authors: Hagen Sean Aquere
Published: January 2020

A personalização dos jornalistas nas entradas “ao vivo” em oposição ao sentido de jornalismo como construção coletiva está passando por um processo de naturalização nos telejornais da Rede Globo. Esta é uma postura conflitante com as finalidades do campo: amplifica o poder político creditado ao jornalismo ao personalizar, via enunciação, ações cotidianas intrínsecas da profissão; isso intensifica a credibilidade de empresas, jornais e jornalistas. Os pronomes possessivos, as conjugações verbais na primeira pessoa do singular e o adjetivo “obrigado” são as principais manifestações dessa prática, que vem crescendo nos últimos anos. Para desvelar esses sentidos, a amostragem qualitativa recaiu sobre o Jornal Hoje, Jornal Nacional e Jornal da Globo.

ABSTRACT

The personalization of journalists in the “live” entries as opposed to the sense of journalism as a collective construction is undergoing a process of naturalization on Rede Globo newscasts. This posture conflicts with the purposes of the field: it amplifies the political power credited to journalism by personalizing, via enunciation, daily actions intrinsic to the profession to intensify the credibility that differentiates companies, newspapers and journalists. Possessive pronouns, verbal conjugations in the first person singular and the adjective "thank you" are the main manifestations of this practice, which has been growing in recent years. To unveil these meanings, the qualitative sampling fell on Jornal Hoje, Jornal Nacional and Jornal da Globo.
