The visible impacts of human activities constructing hydropower dam on Vietnamese Mekong Delta and conceptual solutions for responses
Authors: Nhan Nguyen Huu , Haruyama Shigeko
Published: July 2019

Abstract. Regarding to the important environmental issues, eco-balance and eco-system should be discussed using long period data analysing and visible result of study. These visible results will be materials for construction of geo-design of the river basin. Both hydrological changes and surface changes of the Mekong delta was analysed with new data using hydrologic model with visible mapping in this study. The Mekong River delta, the third largest delta in the world, is presently shifting from growing to shrinking with its ecosystem and environment seriously degraded. These environmental changes are due to several factors such as 1)ill-planned water management schemes including hydropower dams in the river basin, 2) sediment starvation, 3) increased nutrient inflows, in combination with other human activities including infrastructural extension, riverbed mining, delta subsidence, degradation of coastal mangrove belt, and gaps in governance in the whole Mekong basin under the climate change and sea level rise. Both scientific and management communities have suggested that the rate of Mekong delta shrinking will increase markedly this century. The paper compiled new data and mapping together with recent key studies implying that much of the degradation in the Vietnamese Mekong delta is due to recent human activities, particularly hydropower dams in the entire Mekong river basin.By comparison with period before 1990s when there were no large dams, the natural regime here has changed with the annual sediment load to the delta having decreased by 50–60%, the flood discharges have also decreased, the hydrological seasonal regime has shifted as most of the Mekong River water is now trapped in these large dams, and the salinity intrusion into the delta now occurs earlier by 20–30 days. Further, the river bed is on the average deeper by 0.14 m, to which riverbed mining also contributes. There has been a recent increase of erosion of river banks at 400 locations and coasts. The 66% of all of foreshore is now eroding, and the rate of these events is accelerating with time. If all the proposed mainstream hydropower dams in the Lower Mekong Basin have been built, then the Vietnamese Mekong delta with its ecosystems and about 18 million people face critical issues of sustainability. This presentation also focused on some remedial conceptual solutions that may decrease, but not eliminate, the negative impacts of these dams for the Vietnamese Mekong delta. Non-engineering solutions have the highest propriety, but engineering solutions are needed for protecting eroded coastal foreshore, river bank erosion and the fragile mangrove belt. Toward to realization of SDG’s in this study region, the integrated management system of the river basin would be desired.
A preliminary study of geographical names research: Review of cartography education & research in Indonesia
Authors: Cahyono Ari ,   Hartono, Susilo Bowo , Wirasanti Niken
Published: July 2019

Abstract. Geographical names research could be used to reveal the condition of the landscape. Many studies in the geographical names are arranged geographically, surveying geographical names in an area by compiling and analyzing historical spelling sequences to build the origin of etymological geographical names. The geographical names is inherent in human life from birth to death. The trend of geographical names research influenced by cartographic education. This paper aims to review cartographic education in Indonesia in order to reveal how geographical names research influenced by cartographic education. We reviewed many universities that held cartographic, geography, and geospatial education. A paper of geographical names research and cartographic research in Indonesia also examined. We concluded that cartographic education in Indonesia mixed in geography and geomatic study. The development of cartographic courses in universities influences the interest in geographical names study. Based on articles examined, the study of it in Indonesia is dominated by linguistics discipline. They used qualitative methods in their research. Though some of the articles based on the geographical perspective. On the other hand, the trend of geospatial research tends to the technological aspect rather than the concept of cartography. Thus geographical names research is rarely involved. However, with the implementation of geospatial information laws, One Map Policy, and government regulations regarding the geographical names would facilitate the rising of geographical names research. Several universities also opened a new study programme relate to the geospatial field.
Central Park Squirrel Census Maps
Authors: Slaughter IV Nathaniel Garnett
Published: July 2019

Abstract. In October of 2018, the first official squirrel census of New York City’s Central Park was conducted. Throughout the project’s 30-month duration, maps were a critical tool – from logistical planning and data gathering, to data analysis and presentation of census results. Of these project phases, two in particular generated important cartographical work, not only to the success of the census project, but within the historical lineage of Central Park maps: the Tally Map, which was used for squirrel and park data collection, and the series of maps to be used to present the census findings in the Official Central Park Squirrel Census Report.
What Do People Want?
Authors: Pieterse Jan Nederveen
Published: July 2019

Should a discussion of populism be concerned with populism, along with revulsion of its various extremisms, or should it rather be concerned with the failure of institutions and the misbehavior of elites in a world in which eight billionaires own as much as half the world population? The former option will yield a totally different and probably somewhat more predictable discussion than the latter, which may include “from bad to worse.” A third option is that different types of market economies yield different types of populism, including pluto-populism. This discussion follows the latter two options.
Ethics, Identity, and Political Mediation in Right-Wing American Populism
Authors: Dunn Allen
Published: July 2019

This article discusses the ethics of right-wing populism. Using the works of psychologist Jonathan Haidt, it argues that there is a fundamental difference in the ethical orientations of right-wing populists and their liberal opponents. This difference helps explain the populist distrust of deliberative dialogue. It also sheds light on the political polarization that has resulted from the recent culture wars.
Democracy, Populism, and the Production of Superfluousness
Authors: Birmingham Peg
Published: July 2019

Recent publications warn of populism’s threat to democracy. Largely absent is a critique of democracy itself. This article turns to Arendt’s Origins and her claims that democracy contains the preparatory elements realized by imperialism, elements that crystallize into the event of totalitarianism. To ignore these democratic elements, she argues, is to misidentify the real threat confronting us today, namely, the production of superfluity, of which populism is an effect. This article argues that Arendt’s understanding of political action contains a new principle of democracy, a principle of “enduring renewal,” that addresses the superfluousness at the heart of modern democracy.

El papel de la educación en origen al abordar en la trata de jóvenes nigerianas hacia Europa
Authors: Barbuzano Esperanza Jorge , Antolínez Inmaculada
Published: July 2019

Este artículo es resultado del proyecto de investigación “Trata de personas, salud integral y cuidados: mujeres transfronterizas en tránsito de Marruecos hacia Andalucía” de la Universidad Pablo de Olavide durante el año 2014. En Europa y, concretamente en España, la trata de mujeres de origen nigeriano cada vez más jóvenes e incluso menores, con fines de explotación- en este caso - sexual, es una realidad creciente. La investigación, desde un enfoque cualitativo y sustentado en observaciones, entrevistas y talleres de producción de Narrativas Creativas, analiza las condiciones en origen que inciden en la trata, prestando especial atención al papel de la educación formal y; por otro lado, presenta una experiencia de educación entre iguales. Los resultados nos arrojan que en la trata nigeriana hay condiciones de vulnerabilidad múltiple en origen donde la falta de formación es un factor esencial. Por otro lado, se destaca el potencial que tiene la sensibilización entre pares como acción para crear reflexión transformadora.

The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of the chemical and biological fertilizing on the development of two varieties of Schizolobium parahyba, paricá and guapuruvú. The chemical fertilizer NPK 20-05-20 and the plant growth promoting microorganisms, Rhizobium sp. (Rhi) and Rhizophagus clarus (Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungus - AMF). The experimental design was a randomized complete block with five replicates and eight treatments. Forty-six day old seedlings of each variety were planted in pits containing hydroretent gel. Then the treatments were added: 1. Control; 2. Rhi; 3. AMF; 4. NPK; 5. Rhi + NPK; 6. Rhi + AMF; 7. AMF + NPK; 8. Rhi + AMF + NPK. Plant length, stem diameter and survival in the environment were evaluated. The ANOVA followed by the Duncan test (? = 0,05) was used to compare the means of the treatments. In the four evaluated periods (37, 111, 250 and 360 days), both varieties had a positive effect on height, diameter and survival when applied to NPK treatments. The interaction AMF and Rhizobium sp. favored the growth in diameter of the guapuruvú. For paricá variety that same treatment provided higher growth in height, however, AMF impaired development in diameter of this variety. Thus, it was observed that under low fertility conditions, the interaction AMF + Rhi favored a greater resistance of guapuruvú to abiotic stress compared to treatment 3, and the presence of grasses in the experimental area may have contributed to the reduction on the development of S. parahyba.

Few research on the entomofauna associated to forest plantations with Swietenia macrophylla (King) in Brazil has been reported. The aim of this study was to analyze the Coleoptera communities in forest ecosystems with S. macrophylla, Brazilian mahogany, with emphasis on the diversity of families and the main functional groups. The insects were collected through pitfall traps in three forest ecosystems: monoculture, consortium and forest enriched with Brazilian mahogany, during dry and rainy periods in two consecutive years. The identification of the captured insects occurred in the entomology laboratory of the Federal Rural University of Amazonia. The analysis was performed through Past Paleontological Statistic 3.14 and ANAFAU, where the difference was considered significant only when p ? 0.05. 11,358 specimens from 21 families were captured, of which 8,058 were sampled in the rainy season and 3,299 in the dry season. There was influence of seasonality and types of forest ecosystems during collection. The families Nitidulidae, Staphylinidae, Carabidae and Meloidae presented greater abundance and richness in the complex ecosystems. Anobiidae, Cerambycidae, Bostrichidae, Brentidae, Buprestidae, Curculionidae, Elateridae, Chrysomelidae and Lagriidae were considered to be pests and common to all studied ecosystems; however, the families Nitidulidae, Scarabaeidae, Tenebrionidae and Passalidae had the function of decomposers; Carabidae, Coccinellidae, Histeridae, Meloidae, Staphylinidae, Cantharidae and Hydrophilidae were the predators.

Published: July 2019

The suitable establishment of a crop depends on seed quality, among another factors. However, with high production costs many producers use uncertified seeds, to reduce expenses with this input at sowing time. The objective was to evaluate germination, vigor and health of soybean seeds, diseases incidence in cvs. NS 5445 IPRO and BMX Ativa RR, whose seeds were of certified and uncertified origins, as well as yield components and grain yield of soybeans, with or without fungicides application. The experiments were conducted in the 2015/16 and 2016/17 crop season, in Erechim-RS. Two experiments were carried out in a completely randomized design (DIC): one in the laboratory, under a 2 x 2 factorial scheme (cultivar x origin); and another in the field in a homogeneous area, in a 2 x 2 factorial scheme (with/without fungicide application and certified/uncertified seed) for two cultivars, both with four replications. The variables evaluated were: germination and seed health, yield (kg ha-1), thousand grains weight (g), number of grains per plant, and incidence of foliar fungal diseases. The main fungi identified in seeds were Aspergillus sp., Penicillium sp. and Fusarium sp. The highest incidence percentage were obtained in uncertifed seeds, at two harvests. Both cultivars and origins presented the minimum germination required for commercialization, however, certified seeds had better performance for seed vigor. As for normal seedlings, there was a significant difference only for the 2016/17 crop season, with the highest percentage obtained in certified seeds (52.0% for NS 5445 and 73.5% for BMX Ativa). Best productivity was achieved with cultivation of certified seeds associated with fungicides in both crops and cultivars. For thousand grains weight (TGW) there was no difference in origin, but only for cultivar and fungicides apply. The number of grains per plant was higher in plants from certified seeds and that received fungicides, being cv. BMX Ativa the most responsive for the two harvests analyzed. The main diseases found in the two harvests were: Asian rust, powdery mildew, mildew, septoriosis and cercosporiosis. However, seed origin, in both crops, did not differ in the incidence of Asian rust, powdery mildew and mildew, but for septoriosis and cercosporiosis, considered soybean late season diseases, seed origin is a determining fator.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of cows fed with a total mixed ration composed of elephant grass and a concentrate containing 0.0% (control), 1.5%, 3.0% or 4.5% soybean oil on a dry matter basis. The effect of milking time (morning versus afternoon) on butter fatty acid composition was also evaluated. Twelve multiparous Holstein x Gyr cows with an average milk production of 18.0±4.6 kg day-1 and 90±25 days in milk were used in a triplicated 4 x 4 Latin square experimental design with 15-day periods. Data were analyzed using mixed models. There was no effect of soybean oil supplementation on dry matter or neutral detergent fiber intake (P > 0.05). The fat-corrected milk yield linearly decreased (P=0.0109) and the milk protein yield linearly increased (P=0.0023) in response to soybean oil supplementation. The butterfat trans-9 C18:1, cis-9 C18:1, trans-10 C18:1, trans-11 C18:1, cis-9, trans-11 CLA and trans-10, cis-12 CLA content linearly increased (P < 0.05), whereas the C12:0, C14:0 and C16:0 content linearly decreased (P < 0.001) as the level of soybean oil in the diet increased. The butter produced from afternoon milk had a lower content of C16:0 and a higher content of cis-9 C18:1 (P < 0.05). The supplementation of elephant grass-based-diets with soybean oil and, to a small extent, the selective segregation of milk obtained from afternoon milking sessions are strategies that can be used to improve the fatty acid composition of butterfat.

Purpose

To determine whether signs and symptoms of ocular surface disease improve after placement of a self-retained, cryopreserved amniotic membrane (CAM) in patients with Sjögren syndrome (SS).

Methods

The medical records of SS patients who received a self-retained CAM implant (Prokera or Prokera Slim; TissueTech Inc, Doral, FL) for the treatment of ocular surface disease between August 2012 and August 2016 at a single, large academic institution were reviewed retrospectively. Visual acuity, results of slit-lamp examination of the cornea and conjunctiva, and dry eye symptoms, were evaluated before and after CAM insertion. 

Results

A total of 6 eyes of 6 patients (all female; mean age, 62.5 ± 13.0 years [range, 49-86 years]) were included. All patients were on topical medications at the time of the study and had signs of ocular surface dryness. There were reductions in corneal and/or conjunctival staining in 5 eyes (83%) after the CAM dissolved. All patients who completed therapy (5/5) experienced a relapse in their signs and symptoms within 1 month of removal of the CAM, with an average time to relapse of 24.6 days. Mean follow-up time was 54.5 days. Foreign body sensation and blurred vision were the most common complaints associated with the CAM implant. 

Conclusions

In this small case series, self-retained CAM implantation was found to be beneficial in SS patients with ocular surface disease that is refractory to standard therapies; however, we found that the effects were temporary. Future larger studies are needed to confirm these benefits.
A Taste of the Software Industry Perception of Technical Debt and its Management in Brazil
Authors: Silva Victor Machado , Junior Helvio Jeronimo , Travassos Guilherme Horta
Published: July 2019

Technical debt (TD) is receiving more and more attention to software engineering. Although it was initially used as a communication tool for technical and non-technical stakeholders, nowadays this concept supports the improvement of the software’s internal quality. Despite the increasing number of studies regarding TD and its management, only a few are concerned with the industry. Therefore, this primary study aims to characterize TD and its management under the perspective of Brazilian software organizations using their practitioners as proxies. A survey was performed with 62 practitioners, representing around 12 organizations and 30 software projects. The analysis of 40 valid questionnaires indicates that TD is still unknown to a considerable fraction of the participants, and only a small group of organizations adopt TD management activities in their projects. The survey package is available and can be used to support further investigations on TD management in software organizations.
Die Konturierung der „öffentlichen Wiedergabe“ und des Öffentlichkeitsbegriffs durch den EuGH

Der Beitrag untersucht den Öffentlichkeitsbegriff im Urheberrecht. Dieser wird maßgeblich durch die Rechtsprechung des Gerichtshofs der Europäischen Union (EuGH) zum Recht der öffentlichen Wiedergabe beeinflusst. Während der Öffentlichkeitsbegriff in einem weiteren Sinne die Reichweite des Verwertungsrechts normativ mitprägt, findet sich das überkommene Verständnis von Öffentlichkeit als Abgrenzung zu privaten Handlungen in modifizierter Form in einem Öffentlichkeitsbegriff im engeren Sinne.

Die Frage nach der Verbindlichkeit des Rechts, die Frage also, ob dem Recht über seine äußere Zwangsgewalt hinaus eine verpflichtende Kraft zukomme, versteht sich nicht von selbst. Hat der aus der Trennung von Recht und Moral entspringende Rechtspositivismus doch zu der These geführt, daß das Recht – rein rechtlich betrachtet – zu nichts verpflichte. Das widerspricht allerdings den vorherrschenden sozialen Anschauungen. Sie verlangen folglich nach einer Begründung für den dem Recht zugeschriebenen Anspruch verbindlicher Maßgeblichkeit. Demgemäß ranken sich um die Idee solcher Normativität des Rechts Vorstellungen, Bilder und Begriffe, die eine innere Bindung durch Recht plausibel zu machen suchen. Es wird gezeigt, daß sich diese Konnotationen der Idee der Rechtsverbindlichkeit auf drei Grundfiguren zurückführen lassen, die der Grammatik der persönlichen Fürwörter korrespondieren.

Rechtfertigung und Recht
Authors: Huber Wolfgang
Published: July 2019

Die Frage nach der Begründbarkeit des Rechts zeigt gegenwärtig ihre bleibende Aktualität. Obwohl offensichtliche Parallelen bestehen, sind theologische Beiträge zur Ethik des Rechts bis heute alles andere als selbstverständlich.
Im ersten Teil der Untersuchung wird der Einfluß des christlichen Glaubens auf die europäische Rechtsentwicklung von der Christianisierung des römischen Reiches bis zur Diskussion universeller Menschenrechte in der Gegenwart gezeigt. Im zweiten Teil widmet sich das Werk der Rechtfertigungslehre bezüglich der für die neuzeitliche Entwicklung verantwortlichen drei Hauptschübe »Theodizee«, »Anthropodizee« und »Soziodizee«. Der dritte Teil behandelt die neuere Diskussion zur Rechtfertigungslehre, wobei die spezifische Verbindung von Rechtfertigung und Recht am Werk des aus der Schweiz stammenden evangelischen Theologen Karl Barth expliziert wird. Abschließend wird die Unterscheidung von Person und ihrem Handeln hervorgehoben. Dies läßt zu, die Sinnhaftigkeit des Lebens auch bei denjenigen Menschen noch zu bejahen, die im Handeln gescheitert sind. Der Vorrang der Person vor ihren Werken bietet die Grundlage für eine Personenwürde, unabhängig von Geschlecht, Alter, Fähigkeiten und Wohlstand.
Gesellschafterdarlehen und stehengelassene Gewinne in Familienunternehmen

Published: July 2019

It has not been definitively determined whether family businesses require a banking licence pursuant to sec. 32 para. 1 sentence 1 of the German Banking Act (KWG) for corporate financing with shareholder loans and profits left in the business. Considerations regarding the scope of sec. 32 of the KWG, especially its limitations, and an interpretation of the elements of the deposit business pursuant to sec. 1 para. 1 sentence 2 no. 1 of the KWG generally make clear that such a licence is not necessary. On the one hand, shareholder loans and profits left in a business are not covered by the protective purpose of sec. 32 of the KWG, especially since they are comparable to other excluded operations and due to systematic and legal policy-related considerations. On the other hand, shareholder loans and profits left in a business are not banking transactions in the form of deposits. They can neither be qualified through interpretation as unconditionally repayable funds nor as funds from the public.
Index as Scaffold to the Subjunctivity of Children’s Performatives
Authors: West Donna E. ,   Semiotic Society of America
Published: July 2019

This article provides a new characterization of gestural performatives, providing a semiotic analysis of their dialogic meaning—that performatives function as action signs, specifically indexes. Consonant with Peirce’s Ten-Fold Division of Signs, it proposes that the meanings which underlie performative actions supersede the interpretants of the Dicisign and therefore become the subjects of propositions. The dialogic nature of action signs is only beginning to be explored systematically; as such, this fresh inquiry argues that this process develops in ontogeny between two semiotic actors, particularly in view of imperative and subjunctive meanings or effects housed within the Energetic Interpretants of signs whose representamen depict movement.

Existem poucos estudos relacionados ao impacto de queimadas sobre os fungos habitantes do solo presente no cerrado. Objetivou-se com este trabalho identifcar a micoﬂora presente em amostras de solos, antes e após o processo de queimada em duas profundidades, observando a interferência deste processo na população de fungos habitantes do solo. As amostras foram coletadas em uma área, no município de Jaú do Tocantins, Estado do Tocantins. Foram instalados bioensaios em delineamento experimental inteiramente casualizado, com quatro repetições e cinco tratamentos, representados por diferentes concentrações de solução do solo. A identifcação dos fungos foi feita, em nível de gênero, de acordo com suas estruturas morfológicas formadas em meio de cultura, através de observações em microscópio ótico. Na área antes da queimada, observou-se a presença de maior diversidade de gêneros e quantidade de colônias fúngicas. O contrário foi constatado na área posteriormente submetida à queimada, que apresentou menor número de colônias fúngicas. Dos gêneros identifcados, destacaram-se Aspergillus, Penicillium, Cladosporium, Fusarium, Mucor, Pythium e Trichoderma, que apresentaram maior número de colônias em quantidades representativas. Observou-se ainda uma redução em torno de 45% na população de fungos antagonistas. Foi possível constatar que o uso do fogo na vegetação inﬂuenciou negativamente as populações microbianas presentes nas camadas mais sup

Published: July 2019

Os métodos que possibilitam a rápida avaliação do vigor são de grande interesse no controle de qualidade de sementes nas grandes empresas, visto que, o teste de lixiviação de potássio tem se mostrado uma ferramenta eficiente na avaliação dos lotes de espécies como a Moringa oleifera, que apresenta alto potencial nos diferentes subprodutos da planta, podendo ser empregado na agricultura e indústria farmacêutica. O objetivo do trabalho foi adequar a metodologia do teste de lixiviação de potássio em sementes de moringa. Os experimentos foram realizados em Laboratório de Sementes e em casa de vegetação, utilizando-se quatro lotes de sementes, submetidos aos testes de germinação, emergência de plântula, comprimento total e massa seca de plântulas e o teste de frio, para a caracterização fisiológica, além do teste de lixiviação de potássio. Este último foi realizado com amostras de 25 e 50 sementes, colocadas em copos plásticos contendo 70 e 100 mL de água destilada à 25 °C por períodos de 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 e 6 h. O delineamento foi em DIC com quatro repetições por tratamento, e os resultados submetidos a ANOVA, quando significativos pelo teste F, as médias comparadas pelo teste de Tukey a 5 %. Pode-se afirmar que, em todas as avaliações realizadas, apenas um lote se destacou em relação demais, pois, apresentou menor quantidade de lixiviados de potássio e maior potencial fisiológico em condições de laboratório e em campo. As combinações de amostras de 25 e os volumes 75 e 100 mL de água destilada, 50 sementes em um volume de 75 e 100 mL de água destilada por 5 e 6 horas de embebição, foi a metodologia do teste de lixiviação de potássio mais adequado para classificar lotes de sementes de M. oleifera, em função de sua qualidade fisiológica.
Deficiência de macronutrientes em Cariniana estrellensis (Raddi) Kintze

Published: July 2019

O conhecimento dos efeitos da nutrição mineral sobre a fisiologia vegetal de espécies nativas é um importante auxílio para que se obtenha o sucesso desejado quando estas são usadas no reflorestamento ou na recuperação de áreas degradadas. A presente pesquisa avaliou as consequências da deficiência de macronutrientes em Cariniana estrellensis (Raddi) Kintze (jequitibá-branco) nas taxas de assimilação de gás carbônico e de transpiração e na produção de biomassa desta espécie, que é amplamente utilizada na restauração florestal no Brasil. O experimento foi conduzido em casa de vegetação, em blocos ao acaso, com sete tratamentos e três repetições, empregando a técnica de diagnose por subtração de macronutrientes, com um tratamento controle no qual o jequitibá-branco foi cultivado em solução nutritiva completa, com todos os macros e micronutrientes. Os teores de nutrientes foram determinados por análise química nos diferentes órgãos do jequitibá-branco; através do analisador de gás por infravermelho portátil (Infrared Gás Analyzer – IRGA, modelo Li-cor 6400) foram determinadas as taxas de assimilação de gás carbônicoe de transpiração em folhas de três partes distintas das plantas, e ao final do experimento foi realizada a determinação da produção de biomassa seca. A deficiência dos macronutrientes, de um modo geral, prejudicou as taxas de assimilação de gás carbônico e de transpiração e, por conseguinte, a produção de biomassa seca das plantas jovens de jequitibá-branco foi menor em relação ao tratamento controle. Os resultados deste estudo sugerem que a implantação de florestas ou a recuperação de áreas degradadas por meio do reflorestamento que utilizam o jequitibá-branco certamente serão prejudicados se a complementação nutricional não for realizada quando o solo for deficiente em qualquer dos macronutrientes.

Com a produção de papel e celulose, as indústrias deste setor têm gerado diariamente grandes quantidades de resíduos sólidos e efluentes, constituindo-se em grande preocupação ambiental e econômica. Tendo como objetivo pesquisar possibilidades do uso destes subprodutos de forma sustentável, neste estudo foi testada a eficácia de um composto orgânico advindo de resíduos da extração da celulose, na recuperação de atributos químicos de um solo degradado e avaliar o desenvolvimento de Mabea fistulifera Mart. O experimento foi instalado em uma área remanescente da construção da Usina Hidrelétrica de Ilha Solteira, localizada no município de Selvíria - MS, em 2010, seguindo um delineamento experimental em blocos ao acaso em esquema de parcelas subdivididas, com 6 tratamentos: SI – área sem intervenção; D0 – sem adubação; DAM – adubação mineral de acordo com a necessidade da cultura; D10 – adubação com composto de acordo com a necessidade da cultura; D15 e D20 – 15 Mg ha-1 e 20 Mg ha-1 do composto, respectivamente. Os atributos químicos do solo foram avaliados 12 meses após o plantio, em quatro camadas (0,00-0,05; 0,05-0,10; 0,10-0,20 e 0,20-0,40 m) e o crescimento inicial das espécies, trimestralmente até o período de 15 meses. Os resultados foram analisados efetuando-se a análise de variância dos dados e o teste de Scott-Knott, para comparação de médias e regressão entre as diferentes doses de composto a 5% de significância. Conclui-se que a dose de 20 Mg ha-1 foi a mais eficaz para melhorar a qualidade química do solo, até a camada de 0,20 m. Porém, foi observada uma elevação acentuada nos valores de pH no tratamento D20 nas camadas 0,0-0,05, 0,05-0,10 m, o que pode ter influenciando negativamente no desenvolvimento da espécie arbórea.
O ensino de Filosofia em tempos hipermodernos: desafios do amanhã
Authors: Alves Mauricio Silva
Published: July 2019

A sociedade hipermoderna  tem suas estruturas fundadas na lógica do imediatismo, hedonismo, consumismo bem como no fascínio estético que torna uma sociedade alicerçada no espetáculo, este não dá subsídios que permitam o homem distinguir o que é real do que é irreal, deste modo, constitui-se um indivíduo que se imagina eterno e que não precisa cultivar a atitude  perguntante diante dos aparatos inovadores e sedutores da hipermodernidade, é por assim dizer uma traição, pois fascinado pelo imediatismo, e por todos os padrões espetaculares, porém superficiais que lhe são oferecidos, é incapaz de lidar com seus problemas existenciais. A filosofia deve permanecer à margem para garantir o seu espaço como disciplina? A proposta desse trabalho é que se busque a interdisciplinaridade que se coloca como possibilidade de efetivar uma nova maneira de ensinar a Filosofia por meio da reconsideração do discurso das disciplinas do currículo e do modo como elas se articulam sobre uma mesma temática. Nesse sentido, desenvolver um Ensino de Filosofia eficaz, nesses tempos hipermodernos, pressupõe não só a utilização dos textos clássicos dos filósofos de maneira a construir uma exegese filosófica no ensino médio, mas como um distintivo que possibilite o desenvolvimento da criticidade dos alunos do Ensino Médio por meio da interdisciplinaridade.

Published: July 2019

Resumen: El presente artículo, aborda una mirada de género al interior de la resistencia esclava en la región histórica de Vueltabajo, en Cuba. Se establecen los parámetros geohistóricos, económicos y naturales que condicionan la presencia de la mujer cimarrona, con dos estudios de casos representativos: el de la Madre Melchora y el de Petrona Conga. Los métodos histórico-lógico, y de recopilación, ordenamiento y análisis documental de las fuentes primarias, sustentaron los resultados que se presentan. Se resalta a modo de conclusiones, el papel de las mujeres en el cimarronaje como portadoras y trasmisoras de una cultura de resistencia, lo que contrasta con la escasa atención que sobre el asunto existe en la historiografía cubana. Abstract: This article reports a gender perspective within the slave resistance in the historical region of Vueltabajo, in Cuba. The geohistorical, economic and natural parameters that determine the presence of the Maroon woman are established, with two representative case studies: that of Mother Melchora and that of Petrona Conga. The historical-logical methods, and the collection, ordering and documentary analysis of the primary sources, supported the results presented. It highlights as a conclusion, the role of women in the cimarronaje as carriers and transmitters of a culture of resistance, which contrasts with the scant attention on the matter in Cuban historiography.

Authors: Ferreira Karoline de Sousa , Silva Jakeline Pereira , Maciel Daniela Maristane Vieira Lopes
Published: July 2019

A prematuridade associa-se a altas taxas de morbidade e mortalidade neonatal, principalmente quando associado ao baixo peso, menor idade gestacional e imaturidade global de vários órgãos e sistemas. A prematuridade é portanto, um problema de saúde pública que afeta 11,5 % de nascidos vivos no Brasil, podendo levar a morte ou à internação prolongada nas unidades de terapia intensiva neonatal. Esse período de internação, se não for bem acompanhado, pode acarretar várias sequelas sensório-motoras. A intervenção precoce é um conjunto de ações que irão potencializar um desenvolvimento neuropsicomotor adequado através de uma avaliação criteriosa e assistência fisioterapêutica personalizada. O objetivo deste estudo foi realizar uma revisão bibliográfica para identificar as principais estratégias fisioterapêuticas de intervenção precoce nos recém-nascidos prematuros em unidade de terapia intensiva neonatal. Para isso foi realizado um levantamento nos manuais do Ministério da Saúde e em artigos publicados nos últimos dez anos, em bases de dados como Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), Literatura Latina Americana em Ciência de Saúde (LILACS), Google Acadêmico, Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES), Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) e PubMed, entre Novembro de 2017 e Abril de 2018. Utilizando as palavras-chaves de acordo com a classificação dos Descritores em Ciências da Saúde (DCS): prematuridade, intervenção precoce, fisioterapia, recém-nascidos e unidade de terapia intensiva e seus correlatos na língua inglesa prematurity, early intervention, physiotherapy, newborn, intensive care unit. Foram selecionados 96 artigos dentre eles 40 excluídos, pelo fato de não estarem de acordo com a temática proposta ou data fora inferior a estabelecida. É necessário estabelecer programas de intervenção precoce, através de estratégias auditivas, visuais, motoras, táteis-cinestésicas, proprioceptivas e vestibulares, pelo fisioterapêutica de forma contínua e sistematizada nas UTIN, associadas a ações coletivas de toda equipe multiprofissional. A fim de minimizar sequelas neuropsicomotoras, redução do tempo de internação e maior chance de sobrevivência com qualidade de vida a curto e longo prazo.

Published: July 2019

O parto humanizado é preconizado pela Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS) para garantir saúde materna e neonatal, reduzir as taxas de mortalidades nessa população e restringir o uso de recursos tecnológicos. O fisioterapeuta é o profissional habilitado para acompanhar a parturiente em trabalho de parto, garantindo seu protagonismo e ofertando recursos e técnicas não farmacológicas para a promoção de analgesia, segurança e conforto. O objetivo deste estudo é realizar uma revisão bibliográfica para identificar as principais estratégias utilizadas na assistência fisioterapêutica durante o trabalho de parto e parto humanizado para alívio da dor. Para isso, realizou-se uma revisão bibliográfica, nos últimos 10 anos, entre novembro de 2017 e abril de 2018, nas bases de dados PubMed, Google Acadêmico, Periódicos Capes, LILACS e SCIELO, por ensaios clínicos randomizados, revisões bibliográficas e metanálises de efeitos randômicos, além de manuais oficiais do Ministério da Saúde. A seleção de artigos elegíveis e a avaliação de sua qualidade metodológica foram feitas independentemente por dois revisores, e as palavras-chave utilizadas foram: ‘fisioterapia’; ‘parto humanizado’; ‘dor de parto’; e ‘trabalho de parto’, e seus correlatos na língua inglesa: ‘physical therapy’; ‘humanized labor’; ‘labor pain’; e ‘labor’. As estratégias fisioterapêuticas utilizadas durante o trabalho de parto e parto humanizado para alívio da dor foram desde técnicas ocidentais a orientais, tais quais: posicionamento e deambulação bola suíça, percepção respiratória, relaxamento, TENS, massagem, banhos quentes, crioterapia, reflexologia, auriculoterapia, acupuntura e acupressão.
El manto de Ḫiḍr. Misterio, mito y significado según Muḥyīddīn Ibn ʿArabī
Authors: Hirtenstein Stephen
Published: July 2019

Resumen: La misteriosa figura de al-Ḫiḍr, tradicionalmente considerado el que aparece en C. 18: 65-82 como mentor espiritual de Moisés, ocupa un lugar muy importante papel en las enseñanzas sufíes. Este artículo explora el papel trascendental de al-Ḫiḍr, como la puerta de entrada a la aniquilación, en tres partes: al-Ḫiḍr como figura semi-histórica; al-Ḫiḍr en el contexto de su encuentro conMoisés; y los propios encuentros de Ibn ʿArabī con al-Ḫiḍr.Palabras clave: Al-Ḫiḍr. Ibn ʿArabī. Moisés. Tipología espiritual. Siervo de Dios.Abstract: The mysterious figure of al-Khiḍr, who is traditionally understood to be the one referred to in the Quran (18:65–82) as the esoteric instructor of Moses, is given a very important place in Sufi teachings. This paper explores Ibn ʿArabī’s profound characterisation of al-Khiḍr as the gateway to annihilation, in three parts: al-Khiḍr as a semi-historical figure; al-Khiḍr in the context of his meeting with Moses; and Ibn ʿArabī’s own meetings with al-Khiḍr.Key words: Al-Ḫiḍr. Ibn ʿArabī. Moses. Spiritual typology. God’s servant.
