Nowe agendy socjalizacji konsumenckiej w procesie wychowawczym
Authors: Morawska Wiktoria
Published: July 2020

Teza. Celem artykułu jest wskazanie wpływu mega i makro poziomu na kształtowanie się nowych agend socjalizacji konsumenckiej w procesie wychowawczym. Artykuł stanowi próbę wyjaśnienia założenia, iż współcześnie proces wychowawczy związany jest nie tylko z przemianami w wartościach, czy definiowaniu rodziny, ale też protestami w przemyśle motoryzacyjnym w latach 30 XX w., alokacją produkcji, marketingiem, globalizacją, konsumpcjonizmem, rozwojem nowych mediów i transformacją ustrojową w Polsce. 

Omówione koncepcje. Analiza łączy w sobie teorie dotyczące problematyki szeroko pojętej konsumpcji, w tym teorię społeczeństwa konsumentów Zygmunta Baumana, czy brandingu narodu Jamesa McNeala z kilkoma ujęciami zmian w XX i XXI-wiecznego społeczeństwa i globalizacji, wśród których wyjściową stała się teza Beverlyego Silvera. 

Wyniki i wnioski. W artykule wskazano, iż we współczesnym społeczeństwie doszło do transformacji agend socjalizacji czego przyczyną są przede wszystkim zmiany na makro i mega poziomie. W artykule zwrócona jest uwaga na problematykę utowarowienia jednostki i „gry rynkowej” związanej z sukcesem i awansem społecznym rodziny zapośredniczonej przez rozwój dziecka -  „najdroższej inwestycji”. 

Wartość poznawcza podejścia. Największą wartość stanowi oryginalna, dotychczas nie podejmowana, perspektywa analizy procesu wychowawczego współczesnego dziecka nie tylko w kontekście rodziny, środowiska i konsumpcji, ale też procesów zmian w organizacjach i organizacji pracy. Tak przyjęty imperatyw wynika z przekonania, że współczesna rzeczywistość wymaga nie tylko analizy psychologicznej z perspektywy jednostki, czy socjologicznej analizy grupy i systemu edukacji, ale problemów odbywających się na poziomie międzynarodowym, przy przyjęciu tezy Samuela Huntingtona o konsolidowaniu     się światowej gospodarki.

Objetivou-se medir a ocorrência de comportamentos de proteção para a COVID-19 e fatores sociodemográficos segundo a ocorrência de multimorbidade (MM) na população brasileira com 50 anos ou mais de idade. Foram utilizados dados de inquérito telefônico entre participantes do ELSI (Estudo Longitudinal da Saúde dos Idosos Brasileiros), conduzidas entre maio e junho de 2020. Avaliou-se o uso de medidas de prevenção não farmacológica para COVID-19, motivos para sair de casa segundo a presença de multimorbidade e variáveis sociodemográficas. Participaram do estudo 6.149 pessoas. Multimorbidade foi mais frequente no sexo feminino, em casados, na faixa etária 50-59 anos de idade e em moradores da zona urbana. A maior parte da população saiu de casa entre uma e duas vezes na última semana, aumentando segundo o número de morbidades (22,3% sem morbidades e 38% com MM). Sair de casa todos os dias teve menor ocorrência entre indivíduos com MM (10,3%) e 9,3% saíram de casa na última semana para obter atendimento de saúde. Higienização de mãos (>98%) e sempre usar máscara ao sair de casa (>96%), foram hábitos quase universais. Observou-se maior adesão ao isolamento social entre as mulheres com multimorbidade quando comparada com os homens (RP=1,49, IC95%: 1,23; 1,79); Esta adesão aumentou proporcionalmente com a idade e inversamente ao nível de escolaridade. O comportamento de proteção em pessoas com MM parece ser maior em relação aos demais, embora questões relacionadas ao isolamento social e cuidado em saúde mereçam ser destacadas. Esses achados podem ser úteis na customização de estratégias de enfrentamento atual da pandemia.
AR-V7 as a Biomarker for Resistance to Treatment with Abiraterone/Enzalutamide in Three Latin American Countries: A Hypothetical Cost-Saving Analysis

Published: July 2020

Background

Prostate cancer is the most incident and one of the deadliest male cancers in Latin America. Treatment for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) includes androgen receptor signaling inhibitors such as abiraterone and enzalutamide, for which androgen receptor splice variant 7 (AR-V7) has emerged as a biomarker for primary resistance. Our study sought to analyze the potential economic impact of the use of AR-V7 detection as a treatment indicator in patients with mCRPC in three Latin American countries.

Materials and Methods

A hypothetical cost prediction model for the use of noninvasive circulating tumor cell–based AR-V7 testing as a treatment indicator for patients eligible for treatment with abiraterone/enzalutamide was conducted using available information on treatment and testing costs from Mexico, Argentina, and Colombia.

Results

At an estimated prevalence of AR-V7 positivity of 20%, the use of upfront AR-V7 genetic testing resulted in annual net savings of $9,801,669.97, $6,390,055.75, and $3,096,780.91 in Mexico, Argentina, and Colombia, respectively. A direct relationship between AR-V7 positivity prevalence and net savings was found.

Conclusion

The use of a noninvasive AR-V7 detection assay as a treatment indicator tool in patients eligible for treatment with abiraterone or enzalutamide in Latin America could be a cost-effective approach for the management of these patients. Additional efforts are needed to accurately determine the incidence of castration-resistant prostate cancer cases and the prevalence of AR-V7 positivity in Latin America in order to predict the potential economic benefit of its clinical use.

Implications for Practice

In Latin America, prostate cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in men, and the burden of this disease is expected to double in this region by 2030. Noninvasive detection of androgen receptor splice variant 7 (AR-V7) is being currently validated as a predictive biomarker for benefit with androgen receptor signaling inhibitor therapy in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). This hypothetical cost-saving analysis shows that AR-V7 testing in peripheral blood of patients with CRPC eligible for treatment with abiraterone or enzalutamide might represent a cost-effective strategy to select patients who will benefit from AR-axis–directed treatment in three Latin American countries.

The Rise of the Executive Dean and the Slide into Managerialism
Authors: McKenna Sioux
Published: July 2020

Universities have long been characterised by hierarchical and paternalistic management structures and institutional cultures. Change is therefore to be welcomed but, in contexts where social change is urgently needed, it is possible to mistake a change in any direction as being worthwhile. Around the world, recent shifts in university leadership and management have been towards managerialist approaches that work against a shared responsibility for the academic project. Accusations of managerialism often refer to a general sense that institutions are becoming bureaucratic, or that it is the logic of the market that drives decision-making. But beyond vague complaints, these accusations fail to identify the exact processes whereby managerialism takes hold of the institution. This article hones in on one specific example of institutional change in order to argue that it is implicated in the move towards managerialism: most universities in South Africa have changed from having elected deans, selected by faculty, to executive deans, appointed by selection committee. Crudely distinguished, it can be said that elected deans represent the interests of their faculty up into various institutional structures whereas executive deans are tasked with implementing the decisions of top management down into faculty. This paper tracks the differences between the two forms of deanship through reflections on discussions about such a change at one South African institution, Rhodes University. It analyses the literature to argue that we do not have to choose between patriarchal management and compliance-based managerialism. Instead, we can choose shared responsibility for the academic project.
A preliminary fish survey of the estuaries on the south-east coast of South Africa, Kei Estuary to Mdumbi: A comparative study
Authors: NC James  , TD Harrison
Published: July 2020

A preliminary ichthyofaunal and physico-chemical survey of estuaries on the south-east coast of South Africa from the Kei Estuary to the Mdumbi Estuary was undertaken between October and November 1997. Twenty-seven (27) estuaries were surveyed along this stretch of coastline and these were grouped into three estuary types: small (< 10 ha) predominantly closed estuaries, moderate to large (> 10 ha) predominantly closed estuaries and predominantly open estuaries. Multivariate analyses revealed significant differences between predominantly closed estuaries and predominantly open estuaries in terms of both their physico-chemical characteristics and their fish communities. There was no difference between small and moderate to large predominantly closed estuaries.  A significant relationship was also observed between the physico-chemical characteristics of the estuaries and their fish communities.  The estuaries in the study area fall within the warm-temperate biogeographic region; temperate species dominated the fish communities of all the estuaries. This survey represents one of the few fish surveys undertaken along this little-studied section of the coastline.
Climate trends in the Cape Town area, South Africa
Authors: Mark R Jury
Published: July 2020

Climatic conditions near Cape Town, South Africa (34°S, 19°E) are analysed for historical trends in station measurements in the 20th century and in modern satellite-blended datasets. Despite the variety of datasets and record lengths, all show a steady drying trend. Faster rates of warming, 0.1°C∙yr-1, are found in land surface temperatures during the period 2000–2017. Drying trends are most acute to the northwest of the Hottentots Holland mountains. Hydrology station measurements in the Upper Berg River catchment since 1956 reveal a decline in streamflow of −0.012 m3∙s-1∙month-1, and an upward slope in potential evaporation of +0.020 W∙m-2∙month-1. Rainfall has declined most in May and September, indicating a shorter winter wet season. Features supporting the drying trend include an increase of easterly winds and low-level subsidence during summer. The clockwise circulation trend around Cape Town entrains dry air from the Karoo interior and the south coast upwelling zone, leading to negative sensible heat flux, a capping inversion and diminished orographic rainfall.
Sensitivity analysis on a three-phase plant-wide water and resource recovery facility model for identification of significant parameters
Authors: DS Ikumi
Published: July 2020

Water and resource recovery facility (WRRF) mathematical models have been advancing towards their widespread application for sizing and operation of treatment plants to minimize energy consumption and cost while maximizing nutrient recovery and effluent quality. Effective utilisation of these models requires that they are well calibrated. However, difficulties (with important parameters not identified and uncertainties in interpretation of model output results) can be experienced in model calibration, especially due to (i) the intricate relationships of model output variables with model input factors (where parameters are inter-related to various model outputs), resulting in non-linearity, and (ii) the limitations (due to expensive and/or time-consuming experimental methods) experienced in procuring and reconciling data required for determination of the model input factors. This paper presents the performance of a sensitivity analysis, reinforced with expert-based reasoning, on a three-phase (aqueous-gas-solid) plant-wide model (PWM_SA, Ikumi et al., 2015), for identification of significant parameters, and highlights the ones requiring experimental determination, specific to the system. The sensitivity analysis exercise was performed using two methods – i.e., Morris screening (screening method) and standardised regression coefficient (SRC; based on regression). This process was useful towards detection of the parameters, which are not normally measured at WRRFs, but may require attention for future application of mathematical models in decision-making processes for WRRFs. These included the influent fractions of unbiodegradable and readily biodegradable organics, the kinetic constants for hydrolysis of biodegradable particulates, the elemental composition of the organics and the specific growth rate of autotrophic nitrifying biomass.
Soft law como herramienta del compliance socioambiental
Authors: Lima Luciana Cristina da Conceição , Fraguío María Pilar Dopazo , Gonçalves Alcindo Fernandes , Rei Fernando Cardozo Fernandes
Published: July 2020

Currently, the need to comply with socio-environmental requirements no longer finds space in discussions on the willfulness of organizations, nor in the management of human and environmental rights aspects. The context requires joint actions and cooperation to address common problems. Not showing attention to that claim can have impacts that go beyond legal sanctions. So far, the socio-environmental responsibility has been regulated directly and/or indirectly, through various mechanisms and instruments thar are international, supranational and national. In this regard, this essay analyses the context and functionality of soft law technical tools, in order to determine their possible influence and scope on regulation and self-regulation, and, consequently, their contribution to the compliance with the corporate socio-environmental responsibility.

La pandemia de COVID-19 y la crisis climáticas: dos emergencias convergentes
Authors: Villavicencio Calzadilla Paola
Published: July 2020

The coronavirus COVID-19 outbreak, which emerged in China in December 2019, monopolised the world’s attention since the beginning of 2020. The whole world is making every effort to stop the expansion of the epidemic, soon a pandemic, and to face its dire consequences. Yet, in the midst of this health crisis, which brought our societies to a standstill, the momentum on climate action seems to have been hampered by the ongoing COVID-19 crisis. Yet, neither the health crisis, nor the measures that have to be adopted in reaction to it can be separated from an even more critical and deep climate crisis or be used as an excuse to delay the necessary climate action. On the contrary, the post pandemic strategies shall consider the climate emergency as a conditio sine qua non, not only to reduce the risk of future pandemics, but also to avoid a global warming that could be catastrophic for people and the planet.

Identification of sulfonamides in commercial honey
Authors: Duarte K. M. R. , P. Saturno F. D.
Published: July 2020

The contamination of honey, bees and hives are being an issue for discussion and critics from all communities, especially in tropical countries where due to hot climate conditions and higher tendency to food contamination the use of agrochemicals in agriculture systems are intense, as well as the use of antibiotics and food preservatives. In this work, a commercial kit for identification and quantification of sulfonamides (antibiotic class) in honey collected from local markets was used. Two samples of labeled organic honey were spiked with sulfonamide to validate the assay. Twelve commercial samples were analyzed and eleven presented residues of sulfonamides, ranging from 3.46 ug per kg of honey (result of organic sample) to 10.9 ug per kg of honey, from commercial honey. The method presented correlation of 0.92 (r); and specificity of 0.1 ug per kg of honey. The recovery tests using spiked samples with 10 and 5 ug per kg of honey , gave the recovery results of 95.5% and 82.0%, respectively. Although the contaminated samples have sulfonamides concentration lower than security limit, the honey analyzed (commercial and organic labeled samples) were no free from sulfanomides, which shows that honey has contamination problems, being anissue for all consumers, which includes children.
The Transformative Power of Urban Arrival Infrastructures: Berlin’s Refugio and Dong Xuan Center
Authors: Kreichauf René , Rosenberger Olivia , Strobel Paul
Published: July 2020

Migration researchers and urban scholars are increasingly applying infrastructural approaches to analyze the production and organization of urban spaces and migration. While transformative and transforming power seem to be inherent characteristics of infrastructures, studies to date have rarely emphasized this aspect, only placing minimal focus on its importance for understanding the constitution and development of infrastructures and for examining the mobility of migrants. In the current article, we study Berlin’s Refugio, an alternative form of housing for forced migrants, and the city’s Dong Xuan Center (DXC), a Vietnamese hypermarket. We argue that they not only represent infrastructures in which newcomers reach a city, and navigate their trajectories, as well as the obstacles, and opportunities of urban life, but they are also ‘infrastructures of conversion’ that transform material space and the people inhabiting them, and their entanglement with the city. While the DXC and Refugio emerged out of necessity, addressing the lack of economic (DXC) and housing (Refugio) opportunities, they have changed into cultural and economic hubs for migrant communities and beyond. On the one hand, these changes come with multilayered negotiation processes, revealing a complex interplay of interests, actors, and internal hierarchies within the DXC and Refugio. On the other hand, their transformation illustrates the influence of local planning authorities, institutions, and the pressure to culturally and economically exploit their social, spatial, and ‘ethnic’ characteristics. This mesh elucidates the diffuse position of both infrastructures in the urban realm. While their existence and future development is constantly challenged, they simultaneously represent political spaces that prompt institutional logics and questions of immigrant integration.
Urban Arrival Infrastructures between Political and Humanitarian Support: The ‘Refugee Welcome’ Mo(ve)ment Revisited
Authors: Saltiel Rivka
Published: July 2020

Maximilian Park in Brussels was the site of a makeshift refugee camp for three months in 2015 when the institutional reception system was unable to provide shelter for newly arriving asylum seekers. Local volunteers stepped in, formed a civic initiative and organized a reception area under the banner ‘Refugees Welcome!’ The civic platform which emerged claimed and asserted (existing) rights for one specific group, asylum seekers, exclusively, and thus did not challenge the exclusive migration regime nor demand transformation. While such a humanitarian approach risks reproducing the exclusive border regime and the inequalities it engenders, political support is a disturbing rupture in the name of equality that resists normative classifications and inaugurates transformation. This article maps out the complex dialectical interrelation between political and humanitarian support and argues that political implications can only be understood through longer-term research, emphasizing processes of transformation that have resulted from these moments of disruption. Therefore, the article revisits Maximilian Park two and four years after the camp and reveals how the humanitarian approach chosen in the camp sustainably transformed the park, adding arrival infrastructures beyond the institutional, and had an impact on how refugees were dealt with and represented. Concluding, the article suggests the notion of ‘solidary humanitarianism’ that providing supplies, meeting acute existential needs and simultaneously articulating political claims that demand structural transformation: the right to shelter, basic supply, presence, and movement for all in the city.
Ordinary Places of Postmigrant Societies: Dealing with Difference in West and East German Neighbourhoods
Authors: Wiest Karin
Published: July 2020

The starting point of the contribution is the question of how the dynamics of social encounters in the city are shaped by specific migration histories, local discourses, economies and policies. Against this background, the article analyses the perceptions and localised practices in dealing with social difference and diversity in a comparison of East and West German neighbourhoods. However, this is not about a hierarchizing evaluation, but about understanding urban encounters in the migration society as contestations of social and class recognition, which are played out at different levels and in specific urban places. Based on narrative interviews and field observations, it is shown how urban coexistence is experienced and negotiated in everyday settings between routines and new conflicts. A postmigrant perspective—as a heuristic point of entry—aims to take hegemonic understandings of societal belonging and exclusion under migration-related conditions into question.
Arrival or Transient Spaces? Differentiated Politics of Mobilities, Socio-Technological Orderings and Migrants’ Socio-Spatial Embeddedness
Authors: Bork-Hüffer Tabea , Peth Simon Alexander
Published: July 2020

For the last decade there has been a lively debate on urban arrival spaces. Saunders’ (2011) widely received book Arrival Cities can be seen as catalyst of this debate. Taking a hitherto largely unexplored comparative approach, based on two empirical research studies on migrant workers and highly-skilled migrants in Singapore, this study debates the notion of arrival cities and spaces and argues for a differentiated perspective on the complex and interdependent processes of spatially and socially arriving. By comparing how the politics of mobilities, migration management and differential inclusion influence the migration trajectories of workers and professionals we argue that the concept of transient spaces might be a more fruitful approach for understanding the differentiated processes of arriving and (not) becoming socio-spatially embedded. In order to educe the relevance of a processual perspective, and for a systematic comparison, we apply four analytical dimensions that shed light on the process of migrating, arriving, and passing through. These four dimensions comprise (1) arriving, (2) settling, (3) mingling locally and translocally, and (4) planning ahead for future mobilities. We argue that the scholarship on politics of mobilities needs to take note of the combined effects of states’ and companies’ neoliberal politics of mobility throughout the migration process, and of the increasing relevance of socio-technological orderings, which imprint migrants’ socio-spatial embedding.
Broadening the Urban Planning Repertoire with an ‘Arrival Infrastructures’ Perspective
Authors: Meeus Bruno , Beeckmans Luce , Van Heur Bas , Arnaut Karel
Published: July 2020

In this article we propose an arrival infrastructure’s perspective in order to move beyond imaginaries of neighbourhoods as a ‘port of first entry’ that are deeply ingrained in urban planning discussions on migrants’ arrival situations. A focus on the socio-material infrastructures that shape an arrival situation highlights how such situations are located within, but equally transcend, the territories of neighbourhoods and other localities. Unpacking the infrastructuring work of a diversity of actors involved in the arrival process helps to understand how they emerge through time and how migrants construct their future pathways with the futuring possibilities at hand. These constructions occur along three dimensions: (1) Directionality refers to the engagements with the multiple places migrants have developed over time, (2) temporality questions imaginaries of permanent belonging, and (3) subjectivity directs attention to the diverse current and future subjectivities migrants carve out for themselves in situations of arrival. This perspective requires urban planners to trace, grasp and acknowledge the diverse geographies and socio-material infrastructures that shape arrival and the diverse forms of non-expert agency in the use, appropriation and fabrication of the built environment in which the arrival takes place.

Blendas de PEAD: Efeito da concentração de PEAD reciclado e do compatibilizante PEAD-g-MA
Authors: Machado Raquel Gonçalves Costa , Sirelli Lys , Dias Gomes Libano Elaine Vidal , Pereira Patricia Soares da Costa
Published: July 2020

A vasta aplicação do polietileno de alta densidade (PEAD), principalmente no setor de embalagens, confere ao PEAD o lugar entre os plásticos mais produzidos e consumidos no mercado mundial. Devido ao grande descarte e geração de resíduos de PEAD, a importância da reciclagem cresce. A utilização do PEAD reciclado em blendas com o PEAD virgem é uma saída para a diminuição do descarte no meio ambiente. Blendas poliméricas, geralmente, são imiscíveis, devido à baixa entropia de mistura, e incompatíveis, devido à ausência de interações intermoleculares entre as fases. Em decorrência dessa incompatibilidade, é necessário incorporar um agente compatibilizante para melhorar as interações entre as fases. A presença do compatibilizante tem como função agir na interface entre os componentes das blendas e se torna a melhor ação para reduzir a tensão e aumentar a adesão interfacial entre as fases, melhorando a dispersão dos polímeros. No presente trabalho foram preparadas blendas de PEAD virgem (PEADv) com PEAD reciclado (PEADr) (provenientes de sacolas plásticas) em extrusora dupla-rosca com velocidade de processamento de 60rpm.  A incorporação do PEADr foram de 25, 50 e 75%, em massa. Para o estudo do efeito do agente compatibilizante, foi adicionado à blenda com 50% de PEADr, 6% de polietileno de alta densidade enxertado com anidrido maleico (PEAD-g-MA). As amostras foram avaliadas pelos ensaios de densidade, índice de fluidez MFI, dureza Shore D, Termogravimetria, Calorimetria Diferencial de Varredura e Microscopia Eletrônica de Varredura.  O efeito da variação da concentração de PEADr nas blendas estudadas foi pouco significativa nas propriedades físico-mecânica avaliadas. As blendas apresentaram uma redução na estabilidade térmica dos materiais e uma tendência de diminuição da rugosidade conforme o aumento do teor de PEADr.  Os resultados mostraram que o compatibilizante desempenhou um papel importante na compatibilização da blenda avaliada.
Comparison of the Financial Performance between Square Pharmaceuticals Limited and Beximco Pharmaceuticals Limited: DuPont Analysis
Authors: Ahamed Mohammad Jafaur
Published: July 2020

The study attempts to make a comparison of financial strength between Square Pharmaceuticals Limited (SQPL) and Beximco Pharmaceuticals Limited (BXPL) by using the technique of DuPont analysis. Pharmaceuticals are selected here based on a purposive sampling method with the criteria of convenience in annual reports availability. The research is based on secondary data available in annual reports of FY 2018-19 of the selected companies. The study reveals that in comparison with BXPL, SQPL has been utilizing its owners’ funds more profitably, doing operational activities more efficiently, and earning enough returns for its owners. Beximco Pharmaceuticals Ltd. applies aggressive debt-equity policy, which does not magnify its earnings due to the lack of its sufficient rate of returns in comparison with interest burden, lack of core operational efficiency, and underutilization of resources. At the same time, leverage helps the SQPL to fuel the growth of the business. There is a good thing that the two companies have almost the same amount of tax burden ratio, although EBIT is highly differing between the companies. The study suggests that to achieve a high RoE, Beximco Pharmaceuticals Company must reduce its interest expenses, utilize its full capacities, and increase its assets turnover. Besides, both the pharmaceuticals are suggested to focus on the inflation-adjusted financial items in its annual reports. The study has operated only on DuPont analysis. Thus further research is recommended to conduct focusing on others such as common-size analysis, comparative analysis, trend analysis, and ratio analysis, etc. to investigate the financial health of pharmaceutical companies.
Comparação do perfil epidemiológico entre indivíduos parasitados de Campo Mourão e Peabiru, Paraná
Authors: Motta Josiane Louback , Franco Suellen Fernanda , Pavanelli Mariana Felgueira
Published: July 2020

Objetivos: Comparar o perfil epidemiológico entre indivíduos parasitados das cidades de Campo Mourão e Peabiru, Paraná. Métodos: A pesquisa foi realizada em bancos de dados existentes em um laboratório de análises clínicas de cada município. Resultados: A taxa de infecção parasitária foi maior em Peabiru, com 17,9% contra 2,9% em Campo Mourão. Dentre os parasitos encontrados em ambos os municípios, a espécie em predominância foi Giardia intestinalis. Também foi possível observar que usuários do Sistema Único de Saúde, crianças e coletar três amostras de fezes aumentam a chance de diagnóstico de infecção parasitária. Conclusões: A população de Peabiru apresentou maior taxa de infecção parasitária e houve predomínio de infecção por protozoários. Alguns fatores parecem estar envolvidos na contaminação parasitária. Estudos epidemiológicos devem ser sempre realizados a fim de identificar infecções parasitárias e seus fatores associados e gerar informações úteis aos gestores municipais para melhora das condições de saneamento básico, contribuindo assim para a prevenção dos malefícios causados pelas enteroparasitoses.

Objetivos: Estimar a associação entre o baixo peso ao nascer (BPN) e os fatores socioeconômicos, demográficos e assistência pré-natal de puérperas atendidas em uma maternidade de referência de Macaé. Métodos: Realizou-se um estudo seccional, descritivo, de bases primária e secundária na maternidade de um hospital público do município, entre agosto e dezembro de 2014. Realizou-se uma análise múltipla de correspondências para descrição e elaboração de perfil multivariado entre as variáveis socioeconômicas, demográficas e assistência pré-natal com o BPN. Resultados: Foram entrevistadas 105 puérperas, com idade média de 25,5 anos e observou-se 8,6% de BPN. O perfil multivariado sinalizou que recém-nascidos com BPN tendem a ser aqueles cuja mãe apresentou baixo peso pré-gestacional, renda inferior a um salário mínimo, realizou menos de 6 consultas de pré-natal e idade gestacional a termo. Conclusão: O BPN foi associado ao baixo peso pré-gestacional materno, baixa renda familiar (inferior a 1 salário mínimo) e o número de consultas pré-natal (<6).

O objetivo do presente artigo foi relatar uma experiência de Educação em Saúde realizada junto a professoras e outras profissionais de uma escola pública de educação infantil do município de Coari, interior do estado do Amazonas, região Norte do Brasil. O objetivo da prática relatada foi a prevenção das parasitoses prevalentes e a discussão das responsabilidades de professores e profissionais da educação em complementaridade com as ações do setor da saúde. Foram partícipes 32 professoras, 2 pedagogas, 6 auxiliares de serviços gerais e 2 cozinheiras. O artigo se refere aos encontros realizados na busca por instruir e sensibilizar as profissionais por meio de reuniões que tiveram lugar na sala dos professores de janeiro a março de 2016. Os temas abordados enfatizaram os principais tipos de parasitoses que acometem a região e o trabalho de educação em saúde na escola. Constatou-se um baixo conhecimento entre professoras e demais profissionais a respeito da prevenção das parasitoses, sendo propiciada uma experiência educacional em que havia espaço para aprender, ensinar, escutar, comunicar e interagir.

El artículo expone los resultados del tratamientoelectroquímico en fangos residuales provenientes deuna Planta de Tratamiento de Aguas Residuales (PTAR)mediante la operación de una planta piloto, conformadapor tres cubas o celdas electrolíticas, cuyos electrodosfueron placas de cobre y grafito a diferentes distancias:7.5, 15 y 12 cm en las cubas A, B y C respectivamente,en ellas se dispusieron aproximadamente 6,800 cm3de fango hidratado con cloruro de sodio al 12%. Lasplacas que estaban en contacto con el fango fueronexpuestas a una corriente continua de 12 voltios, setomaron 4 muestras en cada una de las 3 cubas, queobedecen a tiempos de contacto de 1 a 4 horas. En lafase de laboratorio se midieron: pH, conductividad,temperatura, humedad, hipoclorito de sodio y se analizóla reducción de la concentración de aluminio y huevoshelmintos después de los tratamientos. Se encontróque el porcentaje de aluminio residual es igual paracualquiera de las celdas A, B o C; sin embargo, la celdaB posee una menor dispersión según el estadístico deLevene. Se alcanzó además una remoción del 100% dehuevos de helmintos en todos los ensayos.
Analysis of the questions in 11th Grade Philosophy Coursebook in terms of higher-order thinking skills
Authors: ACAR ERDOL Tuba
Published: July 2020

The present study aimed to investigate the questions included in the 11th grade Philosophy Coursebook prepared in 2018 by the Ministry of Education in Turkey in terms of higher-order thinking skills. Document analysis was utilized in the study, and frequencies and percentages were used in answering the first sub-research question. Cognitive processes domain of Revised Bloom’s Taxonomy was utilized in conducting analyses to answer the second sub-research question. And Moodley’s (2013) categorization supported the analyses to answer the third sub-research question. The results suggested that the distribution of warm-up, practice, discussion, text analysis, writing, and measurement and evaluation questions were organized in a similar systematic across the coursebook. As a result of the research, not only summative but also formative assessment methods were included in the coursebook. Most of the questions were in the understand level of cognitive processes. The book included only a limited number of questions on the ‘apply’, ‘analyze’, and ‘create’ levels included in Revised Bloom’s Taxonomy. Most of the questions were designed for the mid-level of the cognitive domain and the low-level questions were the second most frequently used questions. Only 6.1 % of the questions were designed for high-levels of the cognitive domain. Last but not least sample questions for the analyze, evaluate, and create dimensions were prepared in an effort to encourage more frequent uses of such types of questions.
Kryzys praworządności w Polsce i na Węgrzech. Spojrzenie teoretycznoprawne
Authors: Bednarek Mikołaj
Published: July 2020

Artykuł analizuje kryzys praworządności występujący w Polsce i na Węgrzech. Kompleksowa analiza historii oraz społeczeństwa upatruje w nich źródło kryzysu. Artykuł przed-stawia ogólne spojrzenie na teorie praworządności, ze szczególnym naciskiem na relacje pomiędzy jego elementami. Artykuł ma na celu pokazanie, że myśl polskiego i węgierskiego społeczeństwa jest odmienna od zachodnich wartości. Ta trudność powoduje, że bycie państwem praworządnym jest niemożliwe. Rozwiązania prawne państw Europy Zachodniej w połączeniu z wartościami i dziedzicem historycznym Polski i Węgier nie działają prawidłowo. Powodem jest tylko częściowa implementacja zachodniej teorii praworządności i brak wewnętrznych wartości prawa, które nie doprowadziły do rządów prawa w praktyce.
Fluency in social work essays
Authors: Duschinsky Robbie , Lampitt Sue , Thompson Jamie
Published: July 2020

As Paltridge (2004, p.90) has claimed, ‘there is no such thing as the one-size-fits-all academic essay that can be written in all areas of study’. Yet research on academic writing by scholars such as Ivanič and Lillis and ideas from social theory offer useful insights, which can be applied to the specific demands of essay-writing on pre-qualifying social work degrees. By failing to clarify how students may succeed, social work educators may misdirect their efforts to improve students’ written communication skills or make students feel falsely that they personally are not smart or hard working enough to meet the requirements of higher education. We close the article by proposing 22 unspoken requirements for success in social work essay-writing, and drawing out the implications of our analysis for social work educators.
Impact of the Integrated Food and Nutrition Programme in Kungwini, South Africa
Authors: Prinsloo Reineth , Pillay V.
Published: July 2020

This article discusses the impact of the Integrated Food and Nutrition Programme (IFNP) in light of collaborative partnerships for poverty reduction in a developing municipal area in South Africa. The programme aimed to develop home, community and school food gardens to meet the daily nutritional needs of poor households and the process was then to be broadened into marketing surplus garden produce, providing employment and income-generating opportunities. The programme thus aimed to address more than just basic food and nutrition. The purpose of the research was to obtain data through participant observation, focus group discussions and extended household interviews. Drawing on the qualitative interviews conducted with the beneficiaries of the IFNP, the article describes the manner in which poverty can continue to entrench the social exclusion of the poor (despite a specific policy intervention to improve their circumstances) when appropriate stakeholder collaboration is not fully developed and harnessed. The research recommendations include improving weak institutional environments, which may hinder effective service delivery, identifying appropriate skills development for the poor, ensuring community involvement in policy processes, maintaining efficient communication in collaborative partnerships, and maintaining personnel training on policy development and in project management skills.
