Lower extremities task of pressing an “accelerator” or a “brake”: association with traffic accidents in older drivers – a preliminary study
Authors: Meguro Kenichi , Kumai Keiichi
Published: November 2022

ABSTRACT Traffic accidents by older drivers are a social urgent problem. The National Police Agency (NPA) in Japan has institutionalized the Cognitive Function Test (NPA test) for renewal of a driver’s license for older adults. However, driving ability cannot be simply evaluated by usual cognitive tests on the desk. Objective: It is important to add an on-road test, but if not possible, we can use simulators. Before doing simulators, it is important to use the right foot to control the accelerator and brake pedals. We applied the Posner paradigm (visual attention test) for lower extremities. Methods: The participants were older adults. They and their families had anxiety about their driving. The 66 participants (44 men and 22 women) were divided into groups with and without experience of a traffic accident, and the following tests were examined: General cognitive and executive function tests, the NPA test, and an original Lower Extremity Reaction Test. Each participant was asked to press the “brake” or “accelerator” pedal by the right foot as quickly as possible in response to a traffic situation shown on the screen. Results: Compared to participants with favorable reactions to the Lower Extremity Reaction Test, those with poor reaction time tended to have more traffic accidents (OR=6.82), rather than the result of the NPA test. Conclusions: The results suggest that the probability of having a traffic accident can be better evaluated using the Lower Extremity Reaction Test.
EXPERIMENTO DIALÓGICO DE DOSTOIÉVSKI NO CINEMA: ENTRE A POLIFONIA E A POLIMORFIA
Authors: MACHADO Irene
Published: November 2022

RESUMO O presente ensaio indaga sobre as possibilidades de as obras de Dostoiévski serem traduzidas intersemioticamente pela linguagem audiovisual do cinema, respeitando-se o princípio dialógico criado pelo escritor e a noção de polimorfismo das recriações fílmicas. Para isso, contesta as adaptações baseadas num conteúdo temático simplificado em que a composição é reduzida ao monologismo característico de práticas herdadas das transposições de obras dostoievskianas para o teatro desde o século XIX. Baseadas no método de decupagem, tal simplificação elimina os conflitos psíquicos e a complexidade dialógico-discursiva do texto romanesco. Aproxima-se, assim, do cine-lubok, uma vertente do cinema russo do início do século XX que procurou levar a obra de Dostoiévski para grandes esferas da população por meio de um trabalho de linguagem concentrado no diálogo. A análise segue os fundamentos teóricos da tradução intersemiótica e do princípio dialógico para examinar duas versões fílmicas do romance O idiota e uma de Crime e castigo, acompanhando uma trajetória que se inicia no primeiro cinema russo, atravessa o período soviético e chega ao final do século XX. Como resultado, equaciona os procedimentos da linguagem audiovisual com os processos criativos que, no cinema, se aproximam das conquistas do experimento polifônico e da dialogia discursiva dos romances.
Epidermal cyst: a rare case report in a 5-month-old child
Authors: STRINGHINI JUNIOR Emyr , KEGLER Débora Gerber , MONTALLI Victor Ângelo Martins , OLIVEIRA Luciana Butini
Published: November 2022

ABSTRACT The epidermal cyst is a rare, benign lesion, usually asymptomatic and slowly enlarging, more frequently located in the submandibular region. Its etiology is believed to be associated with the epithelial residual tissues retained in the midline during the closure of the first and second brachial arches, in the third and fourth weeks of intra-uterine life. Its clinical characteristics are of a rubbery consistency to palpation, well defined borders, with the absence of skin appendages within their squamous epithelium lined walls. The final diagnosis is confirmed through histopathological examination with stratified squamous epithelium findings in the cystic fluid lumen or keratin. The treatment is usually surgical and without recurrence and the final diagnosis is confirmed through histopathological examination. This paper aims to present a case report of a congenital epidermal cyst in a 5-month-old female patient located in the mouth floor near the sublingual gland duct. The case was treated with excisional biopsy and after follow-up, there was no recurrence.
THE BUTTERFLY MAN: MACHADO DE ASSIS, CHARLES LAMB, AND THE PERSONAE IN BRITISH PERIODICAL ESSAYS
Authors: MONTEIRO DANIEL LAGO
Published: November 2022

Abstract This article aims to examine the butterfly man persona who roves from topic to topic with seeming inattention, but concealed choice, in Machado de Assis’ series of chronicles “The Week”, in Charles Lamb’s Essays of Elia, and in previous British periodical essayists. The comparison of the periodical writer to a small flying animal has a long history in essay writing and was acknowledged by Machado in his mature years, at a time when he fully mastered the genre of chronicle and had acquired a far-reaching knowledge of British periodical literature. Therefore, in this paper, the butterfly man would stand for a mode of thinking and writing about the ephemerides of everyday life.
"THE SUPREME BLACK LITERARY ARTIST": A RACIALIZED MACHADO DE ASSIS IN THE ENGLISH-SPEAKING WORLD
Authors: SANTOS BRUNO SOARES DOS , DANIEL G. REGINALD
Published: November 2022

Abstract David Damrosch argues that world literature is the locus of negotiation between a source and a host culture, with works increasingly being favored for exhibiting identities based on racial, ethnic, or cultural differences. We examine racial perspectives on Joaquim Maria Machado de Assis (1839-1908) by English-language critics, largely in North America, from the late twentieth century to the present. In the twentieth century, Machado was successful among academics and critics but not the general public. In the twenty-first century, re-translations of his works have widened his visibility among the general English-language readership. His recent critical reception also reveals greater interest in his racial background. As a multiracial individual of partial African descent and the grandson of freed slaves, Machado has been situated in an African diasporic or Black literary canon as he is read from a racial perspective by North American critics.
Hacerse padre: entre nuevos ideales y viejas estructuras
Authors: Garay Rosa María Ramírez-de , Ito-Sugiyama María Emily Reiko
Published: November 2022

Resumen: En los últimos años las relaciones de género se han transformado, sin embargo, hay ordenamientos que siguen perpetuando la división sexual del trabajo y la desigualdad. Uno de ellos se evidencia cuando las parejas se enfrentan a la parentalidad, donde las tareas domésticas y de cuidado siguen siendo asignadas predominantemente a las mujeres. El objetivo de este estudio fue explorar la vivencia de algunos varones al transitar a la paternidad por vez primera para identificar los ideales predominantes y los obstáculos que siguen dificultando que los varones ejerzan prácticas más equitativas. Para ello se hicieron entrevistas a profundidad con hombres radicando en Ciudad de México. Mediante el análisis se desarrollaron cuatro ejes temáticos que dan cuenta de los retos ante los que se enfrentan los varones con un ideal equitativo, donde se revela la importancia de aspectos estructurales, identitarios y relacionales.
Near-miss materno e violência obstétrica: uma relação possível?
Authors: Aguiar Cláudia de Azevedo , Feliciano Roselane Gonçaves , Tanaka Ana Cristina d'Andretta
Published: November 2022

Resumo: Este estudo objetiva analisar a compreensão das mulheres que vivenciaram a morbidade materna aguda grave (near-miss materno) sobre a assistência obstétrica recebida. Trata-se de uma pesquisa de abordagem qualitativa, com referencial metodológico da história oral temática, realizada por meio de entrevistas presenciais. Participaram do estudo doze mulheres de diferentes regiões brasileiras e que vivenciaram o near-miss materno, principalmente, por complicações de síndromes hipertensivas, hemorragias e infecções. Das memórias coletivas emergidas, identificou-se a violência obstétrica na forma de: I. abuso físico; II. intervenções não consentidas ou aceitas com base em informações parciais ou distorcidas; III. cuidado não confidencial ou privativo; IV. tratamento não digno e abuso verbal; e V. abandono, negligência ou recusa de atendimento. Em conclusão, a violência obstétrica pode somar-se aos eventos que culminarão no near-miss materno e, nesse sentido, é potencialmente ameaçadora da vida.
A Nova Precarização do Trabalho: um Mapa Conceitual
Authors: Melges Fábio , Calarge Tania Cristina Costa , Benini Élcio Gustavo , Pacheco Adriano Pereira de Castro
Published: November 2022

Resumo A nova precarização do trabalho, a precarização flexível, apresenta mudanças e novos elementos significativos no quadro de precariedade do trabalho. Enquanto manifestação histórica, insere-se paulatinamente no bojo das reformas estruturais-econômicas e institucionais-políticas. O objetivo deste texto foi propor um mapa conceitual da nova precarização do trabalho. O mapa conceitual é uma ferramenta crítica para o desenvolvimento de uma investigação científica e articula conceitos, contexto e influências teóricas para promover o avanço da pesquisa no campo do objeto estudado. Três dimensões consubstanciaram o mapa proposto: o contexto, sintetizado na ascensão do neoliberalismo, na hegemonia do setor financeiro, na reestruturação produtiva e na globalização da economia; as práticas flexíveis, na condição de manifestações e causalidades dos arranjos sociais, expostas em termos de naturalização do desemprego, fatalismo econômico, esvaziamento do Estado, santidade dos contratos, desregulamentação, intensificação do trabalho, captura do savoir faire , descentralização e desterritorialização das unidades produtivas, manipulações tecnocráticas, enfraquecimento dos sindicatos, trabalho parcial ou temporário, terceirização e desespecialização; e, as categorias, expressões relacionais identificadas como capitalismo flexível, empresa flexível, flexibilidade (regulação flexível), precarização social e a passagem da subsunção formal à real. Fornecendo uma imagem síntese que busca apreender criticamente a concreticidade do real, o mapa pode ser utilizado como roteiro para novas pesquisas e contribuir para a crítica no campo dos estudos organizacionais.
War and Business: What Does Literature Have to Say on the Subject?
Authors: Felício Jr. Rafael , Figueira Ariane Cristine Roder
Published: November 2022

Abstract This article aims to analyze the contemporary scientific production that relates war to business through an exploratory review of the corresponding literature in which we sought to identify the main research themes and theoretical-empirical contributions on the topic. As a result, it was observed that war entails both risks and opportunities for business, presenting itself as a dichotomous environment: at times propelling, at times repulsive of investments. Another aspect highlighted in this work refers to the dispersion of literature in different areas of knowledge, which has made it difficult to build a research agenda that explores the multifaceted nature of the phenomenon. In that regard, the purpose of this article is to contribute to the articulation of such evidence by generating seven theoretical propositions and an analytical framework to point out research opportunities related to the topic in question.
A Mobilidade Internacional Voluntária Vivida em Riso, Choro e Ressignificação: Experiências de Brasileiros Compartilhadas em Canais no Youtube
Authors: Bueno Janaína Maria , Domingues Carlos Roberto , Vaz Amanda Cristina Corrêa , Ferreira Nicole Hage
Published: November 2022

Resumo A mobilidade internacional voluntária exige maior responsabilidade, visto que não há estrutura e suporte organizacional para o desafio de viver em outro país. O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar o processo de adaptação intercultural de brasileiros imigrantes e autoexpatriados em países “fora do eixo” (menos procurados/sem comunidade estruturada de brasileiros) a partir de seus relatos e interações em canais no YouTube. O estudo emprega abordagem qualitativa, com pesquisa narrativa de quatro indivíduos. Os dados foram coletados entre março e maio de 2021 de acordo com as categorias: adaptação intercultural; tipos de adaptação; estrutura e funcionamento do canal. Confirmou-se a aplicabilidade das teorias de adaptação intercultural para analisar a mobilidade voluntária, porém com necessidade de considerar aspectos específicos, como as ações de ajuste antecipado, a influência dos canais no foco e esforço de adaptação ao ambiente geral e de interação com os locais e o surgimento de aspectos e comportamentos individuais (como flexibilidade à mudança e autoconhecimento), que se mostraram relevantes para o processo de adaptação intercultural na mobilidade voluntária. Como contribuição teórica, compreende-se que para utilizar as teorias sobre adaptação intercultural com o intuito de analisar a mobilidade voluntária é necessário considerar alguns aspectos específicos desse tipo de mobilidade ainda no país de origem, o peso e importância de cada ambiente de adaptação para o objetivo do expatriado voluntário e o quanto essa experiência é compartilhada e exposta em diferentes meios com o seu respectivo impacto nas escolhas e (re)criação de significados.
(Con)figurar o Empreendimento, (Con)formar a Vida: Estratégia de Viver a Vida em Refúgio como Empreendedor Étnico à Luz do Trabalho Imaterial
Authors: Scherer Laura Alves , Prestes Vanessa Amaral , Grisci Carmem Ligia Iochins
Published: November 2022

Resumo Este artigo tem como objetivo apresentar e analisar a estratégia de viver a vida de refugiados sírios, tomando o empreendimento étnico à luz da noção de trabalho imaterial. Realizou-se um estudo qualitativo e exploratório na cidade de Porto Alegre (Brasil), a partir de um corpus de pesquisa que teve como foco temático a etnicidade nos empreendimentos do ramo alimentício de refugiados sírios. Os dados foram acessados por meio de notícias de jornal, visitas aos empreendimentos, consumo de produtos, entrevistas narrativas e observação direta com registros fotográficos e em diários de campo. Participaram da pesquisa refugiados sírios interligados por laços familiares e de origem que compartilham dois empreendimentos — uma lancheria e uma confeitaria étnica. A análise resultou em três eixos: (a) percursos e percalços no refúgio; (b) trabalho imaterial como empreendimento étnico; e (c) ser empreendedor étnico como estratégia de viver a vida em refúgio. Evidencia-se que os modelos metafóricos de errante e de jogador auxiliam a ilustrar a produção de subjetividade se delineando em direção ao empreendedor étnico como uma estratégia de viver a vida de refugiado operacionalizada pelo trabalho imaterial. Tais conclusões trazem a perspectiva analítica da subjetividade aos empreendimentos étnicos ao mostrar que o empreendedor étnico em correspondência ao empreendedor de si no trabalho imaterial opera no sentido da produção/composição/afirmação da estratégia de viver a vida em refúgio. Assim, ao (con)figurar o empreendimento, (con)forma a vida.
A produção imobiliária residencial na região de São José do Rio Preto 2000-2019: um olhar a partir do Programa Minha Casa Minha Vida
Authors: Otero Estevam Vanale , Fodra Marina Gonçalves
Published: November 2022

Resumo Em contraste com as tendências observadas nas grandes metrópoles - em especial aqui considerada a cidade de São Paulo -, os municípios do interior paulista demonstram, no decorrer das duas últimas décadas, uma dinâmica de produção imobiliária notável, que se caracteriza pelo descompasso entre o número de imóveis produzidos e a demanda efetiva por habitação, evidenciando uma significativa superprodução imobiliária. Determinadas características dos municípios no interior do estado - sobretudo cidades médias que conformam polos de influência regional - colaboram para a constituição de seus territórios como áreas de grande atratividade para a atuação do mercado imobiliário, seja em relação à produção de parcelamento do solo, seja em relação ao mercado de habitação voltado ao segmento econômico, promovido pelo Programa Minha Casa Minha Vida (PMCMV). O presente artigo objetiva analisar os aspectos que tornam bastante singular a produção nessas cidades, utilizando, para isso, o estudo da produção de empreendimentos imobiliários PMCMV em São José do Rio Preto e municípios vizinhos, que se destacam por apresentarem uma expressiva produção em relação às outras cidades do estado.
Structural qualities of urban space revealed by spatial representation and intelligibility readings: the case of Setif City, Algeria
Authors: Kelkoul Leila Rahmani , Chougui Ali
Published: November 2022

Abstract This article discusses urban expansion in Setif, Algeria, with a periphery that lacks the spatial quality of what constitutes the city. Despite the presence of services, commerce, housing, and brand-new modern architecture, this periphery is not perceived as the city. The current study addresses the issue by combining two qualitative-quantitative techniques: spatial representation using sketch maps and syntactic analysis via space syntax. The findings were acquired using two software programs; SPSS 23 and Depthmap X . The performance indicated that the city center is the best representation of the city. To elucidate the structural characteristics that give birth to this representation, the space syntax is applied to two samples: the city center and El Hidhab. The intelligibility of the spatial arrangement, the spatial component, and the structuring features are the primary outcomes of spatial qualities. This study serves as a reference for other studies addressing the same issue. It may also serve as a guide for restructuring and projects aimed at creating what constitutes the city.
Cryptanthus euglossinii (Bromeliaceae: Bromelioideae), a new species from Chapada Diamantina, Bahia
Authors: Almeida Erick Douglas Souza , Siqueira Filho José Alves , Leme Elton Martinez Carvalho
Published: November 2022

Abstract A new species of Cryptanthus, known exclusively from Chapada Diamantina, in the municipalities of Miguel Calmon and Jacobina, state of Bahia, Northeast Brazil, is described and illustrated. Cryptanthus euglossinii is characterized by having leaves that are reddish in the marginal region, white-scaly near the base and glabrous adaxially towards the apex, with the abaxial surface covered by trichomes that obscure the color of the leaf. Comparisons are made with two similar species, C. reisii and C. bibarrensis, that are considered closely related. Euglossinii bees were observed visiting the flowers of C. euglossinii and collecting floral essences on petals, a relationship that is the basis of the epithet of the new species. Cryptanthus euglossinii is considered Endangered (EN) based on an extent of occurrence of 860 km2, an area of occupancy of 1,000 km2, and criteria established by the IUCN.
Influence of environmental variables on the floristics and structure of natural regeneration in a Mixed Ombrophilous Forest remnant
Authors: Gonçalves Sâmila de Nazaré Corrêa , Schorn Lauri Amândio , Santos Kristiana Fiorentin dos , Higuchi Pedro
Published: November 2022

Abstract The present study explored the influence of edaphic variables and forest leaf cover on natural regeneration in a remnant of a Mixed Ombrophilous Forest (MOF) in southern Brazil. Principal component analysis (PCA) was used to elucidate the heterogeneity of edaphic and leaf cover variables among the sampling units, and the variables exhibiting the strongest correlations with the sampling units were selected. Subsequently, these variables were used to explain floristic patterns using canonical correspondence analysis (CCA). In PCA, the leaf area index explained only some variation in the data, and there was obvious heterogeneity in edaphic variables among the sample units. In the main canonical axis of the CCA, Miconia cubatanensis, Myrcia multiflora, Casearia decandra, and Myrsine coriacea showed greater correlation with variables associated with soil acidity. In contrast, Allophylus guaraniticus and Cupania vernalis showed a high correlation with variables related to bases. Overall, the analysis of soil physicochemical characteristics can allow for the more precise identification of indicator species for the restoration of remnant of MOF in southern Brazil.

Published: November 2022

Abstract This study provides a taxonomic treatment for the species of Loranthaceae in the state of Ceará, Northeastern Brazil. The survey was made based on the previous consultation of virtual herbaria, in loco visits, material loans, and photographs of diagnostic traits sent by herbarium curators. Morphological traits and geographic coordinates of all specimens collected in the State were recorded to prepare the distribution maps, identification key, and taxonomic descriptions for each taxon. A total of 184 specimens (discounting duplicates) from 30 herbaria were studied. Eight species are recorded for Ceará: Passovia pedunculata, Passovia pyrifolia, Psittacanthus cordatus, Psittacanthus dichroos, Psittacanthus eucalyptifolius, Struthanthus marginatus, Struthanthus polyrrhizus, and Struthanthus syringifolius. None are included in the IUCN Red List. However, four of them were collected inside protected areas (i.e., Passovia pedunculata, Psittacanthus cordatus, S. polyrrhizus, and S. syringifolius).

Published: November 2022

Abstract Objectives: to identify the occupational risk factors for hematological neoplasms, specifically leukemia, lymphomas, and multiple myeloma. Methods: this is a case-control study. Cases were individuals with hematological neoplasms and controls were individuals with other diagnoses; frequency-matched by sex and age. Individual interviews were conducted by trained researchers using a structured questionnaire. We collected information on participants’ occupational history and chemicals use and exposure, in general, and pesticides, in particular. Odds ratios (OR) were used as association measurements, estimated by multivariate non-conditional logistic regression models for exploratory analysis. Results: 61 cases and 146 controls were included. We found that agricultural work (OR: 2.18; 95% confidence interval (95%CI): 1.10;4.30), occupational exposure to pesticides (OR: 2.37; 95%CI: 1.18;4.77), and total occupational exposure to pesticides throughout their working life (in hours) - both short (OR: 3.52; 95%CI: 1.25;9.87) and long (OR: 3.95; 95%CI: 1.54;10.14) - constituted risk factors for hematological neoplasms, when compared to those unexposed. We adjusted these measures for alcohol consumption and smoking, physical activity, income, education, and history of occupational exposure to chemicals. Conclusion: occupational exposure to pesticides is associated with hematological neoplasms regardless of lifestyle and socioeconomic status.

Published: November 2022

Abstract Introduction The mandatory confinement in response to Covid-19 forced the closure of colleges and universities, leading professors to adapt their teaching strategies to digital media, These changes in teaching processes showed an increase in the workday, greater stress, fatigue, and difficulties in separating work from other occupations, which may compromise the physical and mental health of teachers. Objective To describe the occupational balance of occupational therapy teachers at a university in Cali-Colombia, during lockdown due to Covid-19, and to establish the relationship between sociodemographic variables and the presence of symptoms of anxiety and depression. Method A cross-sectional study was conducted with 32 occupational therapy professors. The information was collected using Google forms containing a sociodemographic questionnaire, the OBQ-E, PHQ-9 questionnaires, and the GAD-7 scale. Absolute frequency tables and percentages were made for qualitative variables, and quantitative variables were presented as mean and standard deviation. Bivariate analysis was performed using t-student tests, ANOVA, and Pearson's correlations. Results 75.0% of participants were women. In occupational balance the average was 36.5; meanwhile, 31.3% manifested symptoms of anxiety and 43.8% of depression. Conclusions Most of the professors were women, gender that was related to the care of older adults. The scores in occupational balance and the presence of anxiety and depression symptoms reflect the adjustments that the professors assumed during the confinement, in response to the increase in daily activities, the little variety between occupations that they wanted and had to do, and satisfaction with the job, rest and sleep time.

Abstract Introduction Studies from a gender perspective and feminist studies are still emerging in Occupation Science. Based on the assumption that we live in a patriarchal society, this research rescues the narrative of middle-aged Chilean women from the Los Ríos region, to make visible how they built their lives based on the gender stereotypes that determined their choices. occupations according to the needs of men, under a traditional understanding of the female-male binary. Objective Recognize and understand the emerging relationship between gender stereotypes, body construction, and occupational choices. Method From a post-structuralist feminist stance, interviews with a narrative approach are carried out with an intentional sample of eight women; Discourse analysis, as a methodological tool, gives an account of the life trajectory and experiences of women in relation to gender, body, and occupational choices. Results Five categories emerged from the research that reflect the existence of gender stereotypes in women. female body that isimpregnated in their identity and the occupational choices throughout their lives. Conclusion The women's narratives show the existence of an emerging dynamic relationship between the construction of the body, gender stereotypes, and occupational choices, where stereotypes and actions are combined, generating a construction of the concept of woman in a socio-historical context. occupational patterns and choices that will replicate gender stereotypes.

Published: November 2022

Abstract Objective Describe the profile of students in the health and exact undergraduate courses of a public university in the Midwest region of Brazil, determine the prevalence of Common Mental Disorders (CMD) among these students, and verify the sociodemographic and course-related factors associated with their occurrence. Method A cross-sectional and relational study was carried out from May to September 2020 with a sample of 493 students who answered a survey on sociodemographic variables and the Self-reporting Questionnaire (SRQ 20). We conducted descriptive analyses of the variables and logistic regression, using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS), version 21.0. A cutoff point ≥7 was adopted in the SRQ-20 for suspected CMD. Results The prevalence of CMD in the sample was 66.1%. Comparison between the groups (with or without CMD) showed that the highest prevalence rates were linked to the female gender (p<0.001) and undergoing health care treatment (p<0.001). Regression analysis indicated significant predictors for CMD being female (p<0.001) and being enrolled in exact science courses (p=0.050). Conclusion The high prevalence of CMD reinforces the need to invest in the creation of care spaces that pay special attention to women and exact sciences students, in addition to discussing student assistance policies aimed at promoting the health, well-being, and care of university students.
As concepções de cuidado em saúde de mulheres de uma comunidade quilombola da região metropolitana de Fortaleza (CE): uma investigação a partir dos afetos
Authors: Morais Tauanaiara Nogueira de , Rocha Nara Maria Forte Diogo
Published: November 2022

Resumo Este artigo foi construído junto a mulheres de uma comunidade quilombola situada na região metropolitana de Fortaleza (CE), a partir da investigação sobre lugares de cuidado em saúde. Destacamos a importância de debater a dimensão afetiva das práticas de saúde com base nos cotidianos das comunidades, considerando questões sociopolíticas como o debate étnico-racial. Nosso objetivo foi reconhecer concepções de saúde e demandas trazidas pelas participantes e, a partir disso, discutir modos de fazer saúde. Foi utilizado o Instrumento Gerador dos Mapas Afetivos para captar questões relacionadas ao cuidado advindas dos afetos. Contamos com 13 participantes, mulheres com idades entre 38 e 77 anos, e, baseadas em suas respostas, categorizamos quatro lugares: igrejas evangélicas, casa, espaços de convivência comunitária e centros comerciais. Outros espaços foram citados secundariamente e tiveram maior variabilidade. Percebemos a relevância que a coletividade, o acesso, o território e os afetos têm na construção dos processos de saúde das participantes. Por fim, discutimos os modos de fazer cuidado institucionalizados nos serviços de saúde e apontamos questões para a construção de processos mais dialógicos e pautados na autonomia.
O desmonte da caixa de ferramentas orçamentárias do Poder Executivo e o controle do orçamento pelo Congresso Nacional
Authors: Faria Rodrigo Oliveira de
Published: November 2022

Este artigo tem como objetivo central discutir os resultados e consequências do amplo processo de reforma orçamentária ocorrido na última década que pretendeu reduzir os elevados níveis de discricionariedade do Poder Executivo e introduzir o tratamento igualitário dos parlamentares, relativamente às suas emendas, vedando-se o uso político de liberação das verbas. Os resultados do redesenho das instituições orçamentárias apontam, contudo, para a sinalização de que as finalidades centrais das alterações normativas não somente não foram alcançadas, mas revertidas, a partir do amplo controle do orçamento assumido pelo Congresso Nacional, indicando limitações emblemáticas no processo de reengenharia institucional. As consequências da mudança da ordem constitucional orçamentária de 1988 foram a significativa redução da discricionariedade do Executivo, o aumento do controle do Congresso Nacional em matéria orçamentária, a ampliação da discricionariedade no âmbito do Legislativo, a transferência de prerrogativas presidenciais para o relator-geral do PLOA e a explosão das emendas de relator-geral RP-9, com a emblemática reversão do tratamento igualitário, a indicar fissuras relevantes na reconfiguração orçamentária. A metodologia de pesquisa é qualitativa, com supedâneo na extensa documentação de tramitação dos projetos de lei orçamentária anual e dos projetos de lei de diretrizes orçamentárias disponível nos sítios eletrônicos da Câmara dos Deputados e do Senado Federal, bem como nas próprias leis aprovadas (LOA e LDO). Utiliza-se, adicionalmente, de dados empíricos para fundamentação de parte das conclusões alcançadas no estudo.
Plantar Subluxation of First Metatarsal with Intercuneiform Dislocation: A Case Report of a New Type of Lisfranc Injury
Authors: Antoniadou Thekla , Dimopoulos Leonidas , Nikolaides A. P. , El Gamal T.
Published: November 2022

Lisfranc injuries result when the bones or ligaments that support the midfoot are torn, and the classifications of these injuries are based on the coronal displacement of the metatarsals. On the saggital plane, the first metatarsal is usually dorsally dislocated due to dorsal ligament weakness. We present a case report of a 29-year-old woman who sustained a Lisfranc injury of her right foot with plantar subluxation of the first metatarsal, which was treated with open reduction and internal fixation of the first metatarsal and fusion of the second metatarsal.
The English past tense as a definite description
Authors: Zhao Ruoying
Published: November 2022

There are two major groups of analyses in the literature on the English past tense; existential semantics with domain restriction, and the pronominal (i.e. anaphoric) analysis. In this paper, I discuss a group of data difficult for both of these analyses: the obligatory use of the English past in some contexts without any salient antecedent, such as asking Who built this church when pointing at a church (Kratzer 1998). The pronominal analysis predicts that the past tense should be infelicitous, while the existential analysis with domain restriction cannot account for the distribution of these data. I argue that these observations follow from a lexical ambiguity of the English past tense between an anaphoric and a uniqueness reading, parallel to similar patterns in definites (Schwarz 2009: a.o.).
Different cities, different property-tax-rate regimes: Is it fair in an open and democratic society?
Authors: Van Zyl Fanie , Fritz Carika
Published: November 2022

Differentiation does not automatically mean that a person's right to equality has been infringed on. Thus, the mere fact that taxpayers are subject to different property tax rates in South Africa depending on the municipality in which the property falls does not necessarily result in an infringement of section 9 of the Constitution: a specific analysis is required in order to determine the constitutionality thereof. In this article, we examine whether the different rates applicable to properties based on where the property is situated are constitutionally sound vis-à-vis the right to equality. In order to do so, we compare the property tax rates and rebates that apply in respect of residential property in the capital cities of the nine provinces in South Africa. The first part of the article considers the general approach adopted by the courts in establishing whether section 9 of the Constitution has been violated. The second part discusses the legislative framework of property tax, after which the equality enquiry is conducted on the differentiation that occurs in regard to property situated in different municipalities. Lastly, we offer some recommendations in our closing remarks.
Fiscal incentives in Kenya's free zones: To what extent are they consistent with the WTO rules on subsidies?
Authors: Oluyeju Olufemi , Rotich Nelly C
Published: November 2022

In Kenya, free zones take the form of Special Economic Zones (SEZs) and Export Processing Zones (EPZs) and are offered a myriad of fiscal and non-fiscal incentives. At the same time, Kenya, as a member of the World Trade Organization (WTO), is a signatory to the Agreement on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures (ASCM), which prohibits subsidies that are contingent on export performance or use of domestic over imported products. Although free zones are not mentioned specifically, fiscal incentives constitute subsidies since they are financial contributions, incomes or price supports given by the government or their agencies which confer benefits. In this regard, the article examines whether the fiscal incentives offered in Kenya's free zones meet the specificity test and are therefore consistent with the provisions on prohibited and actionable subsidies under the ASCM. The conclusion is that though the fiscal incentives offered in Kenya's free zones constitute financial contributions, they meet the specificity test and are consistent with ASCM rules on subsidies contingent on export performance and use of domestic over imported products, given that Kenya is allowed to grant export subsidies and none of the subsidies offered under the EPZs Act and SEZs Act require the use of domestic over imported products.

Статья посвящена вопросам развития методики обучения в высшей школе в условиях возрастающей автономизации студентов как следствия расширения онлайн обучения. Равноправными соавторами выступают доцент и студенты университета. Педагогические аспекты рассматриваются в контексте междисциплинарных подходов цифровых гуманитарных наук как содержания обучения и методов обучения. Такой подход к педагогике высшего образования позволяет повысить качество обучения и обеспечить успешное овладение студентами компетенций, повышающих их конкурентоспособность в цифровом обществе. Предлагается опыт моделирования в учебном процессе высшей школы «полного цикла исследовательской деятельности», включающего осуществление проекта и написания статьи по его результатам. Выявлены проблемы, возникающие в ходе данной работы, предложены пути их решения, в числе которых варианты продвижения результатов проектов. Проанализированы требования к образовательной среде, диктуемые особенностями ее цифровизации и автономизации студентов. Представлены результаты эксперимента по использованию проектного метода, который проводился в рамках педагогической деятельности кафедры информационных систем в искусстве и гуманитарных науках Санкт-Петербургского государственного университета в 2016–2021 годах. Полученные результаты свидетельствуют о том, что подходы цифровой гуманитарной педагогики способствуют более эффективному развитию у студентов компетенций специалиста в цифровом обществе.
Дом как детерминант практик мобильности и иммобильности в компьютерных онлайн-играх (на примере симулятора выживания Rust)
Authors:   Новосибирский государственный архитектурно-строительный университет, Литвинцев Д.Б.
Published: November 2022

Сетевые компьютерные игры — нередкий объект исследования в различных социально-гуманитарных науках, что обусловлено особым интересом к формам и практикам социального внутриигрового взаимодействия, имеющих свою специфику. В настоящей статье представлены результаты социологического анализа практик мобильности и иммобильности в компьютерной онлайн-игре Rust, представляющей собой популярный симулятор выживания в открытом мире. Объектом исследования стали многочисленные ролики с записями игрового процесса на платформе YouTube. В основе анализа лежит представление о роли дома (жилища), его функциях и неразрывной связи с траекториями внутриигровой мобильности, рассматриваемой в дискурсе теории Дж. Урри. В ходе анализа осуществлено сопоставление исследуемых практик с различными стратегиями взаимодействия между игроками в условиях повторяющейся дилеммы заключенного — постоянная кооперация, постоянные убийства, зуб-за-зуб и «никогда не забывать». Особое внимание уделено типологии домов (в т.ч. дом-ловушка, дом-паразит) и их архитектуре как средству социальной коммуникации между игроками, а также практикам караванинга, доркемпинга и руфкемпинга. В заключении отмечается возможность распространения полученных выводов на схожие игры жанра и определяется перспектива дальнейших исследований.
Freemium Strategy in Competitive App Markets: Maintaining Profitability with Product Fit Uncertainty
Authors: Luo Xiaoxiao ,   Southwestern University of Finance and Economics, Zhang Jie ,   University of Texas at Arlington, Lu Minqiang ,   Tianjin University
Published: November 2022

Today’s app market is highly competitive and rapidly growing. This study considers two app developers with substitutable apps and a continuum of consumers with heterogeneous preferences. Each developer decides between offering a paid app and offering a free basic app with in-app purchases. Because of product fit uncertainty, consumers are not sure about the degree of misfit between the app and their preferences, and that uncertainty can be reduced by trying the free basic app. Using a game-theoretic modeling framework, we analyze how product fit uncertainty affects competing developers’ profits and examine the scenario in which each developer offers a paid app or a free basic app with in-app purchases in a duopoly setting. The analytical results suggest that the developer can offer a free basic app for consumer learning even if the app is not underestimated. When either developer offers a free trial, the developer with the higher-quality app will prefer higher product fit uncertainty, but the one with the lower-quality app will favor lower product fit uncertainty. Additionally, as the app quality increases or consumer preferences become stronger, developers may switch the strategy depending on the reduction in product fit uncertainty caused by the free trial. Our study establishes the usefulness of the freemium strategy beyond the contexts analyzed in the literature. The results explain empirical observations of the app market and provide recommendations about the information disclosure of fit attributes in a competitive market.
Social intelligence in the context of the development of subjective cognitive impairment
Authors: Yakupov Eduard Z. , Bakanova Aleksandra S. , Zhamieva Rimma A.
Published: November 2022

BACKGROUND. The presented literature review reveals the topic of subjective cognitive impairment in the context of social intelligence disorders as one of the most important components of cognitive functions.
AIM. Analysis of existing literature data on subjective cognitive impairments and assessment of social intelligence.
MATERIAL AND METHODS. Various sources were considered during conducting a literature review on the selected topic. The search depth was more than 15 years. Russian and foreign sources were studied on Internet platforms such as Web of science, UpToDate, PubMed, Medscape, eLIBRARY for selection of literature.
RESULTS. The paper compares the types of cognitive disorders and the main differences between the group of subjective disorders and other pronounced forms of cognitive disorders. The key differences include the impossibility of making a diagnosis based on the results of neuropsychological testing, the absence of a clinically pronounced syndrome and difficulties in performing everyday tasks. The connection of social intelligence with factors adversely affecting the state of health is considered, and a generalizing characteristic of social intelligence as a separate cognitive function is presented.
CONCLUSION. The low detectability of subjective cognitive impairments is associated with ignorance of their severity on the part of both the doctor and the patient. There is a problem of adequate methods for assessing subjective cognitive impairment using neuropsychological testing, including determining the level of social intelligence. The most accurate method of assessing social intelligence is the Guilford test.
ICD-11 (psychiatric section): who diagnoses better treats better?
Authors: Mendelevich Vladimir D.
Published: November 2022

The article analyzes the reasons for the opposition of a significant number of Russian psychiatrists to the introduction of a new international classification of mental and behavioral disorders (ICD-11). An opinion is expressed that the increase in the effectiveness of therapy from ICD-9 to ICD-10 in world psychiatry is associated not so much with the transition to syndromic (anosological) assessment of clinical phenomena, but because of the widespread use of modern psychopharmacological drugs and the introduction of evidence-based medicine principles, which in domestic psychiatry are also criticized. It is argued that two important aspects of psychiatry diagnosis and therapy are practically independent of each other, and the entire dispute about rejection or acceptance of the new classification (ICD-11) has nothing to do with the effectiveness of therapy.

Authors: Areprintseva Daria K. , Kutlubaev Mansur A.
Published: November 2022

BACKGROUND. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is not limited only to motor impairment, and can also manifest with cognitive and behavioral disorders. Currently these presentations of ALS are unrecognized. Hence the research of ALS variants with cognitive and behavioral impairments is necessary.
AIM. To study the frequency and clinical characteristics of ALS variants with cognitive and behavioral impairments.
MATERIAL AND METHODS. The patients were recruited in 20202021. All patients with definite and possible ALS according to El Escorial criteria were included. The Edinburgh Cognitive and Behavioral ALS Screen (ECAS) was used to assess cognitive and behavioral changes. 44 patients, 26 males and 18 females, aged 39 to 77 years (median of age 61 years, interquartile range 53.574.5). Statistical analysis was performed using IBM SPSS Statistics 21. Continuous data were analyzed using the MannWhitney test, categorical data was analyzed by exact Fisher criteria. A p-value less than 0.05 was statistically significant.
RESULTS. In 43.2% of patients cognitive and/or behavioral changes were observed. The majority of patients (approximately 20%) suffered from a variant of ALS with cognitive impairment, which was mostly presented with executive and social cognitive dysfunction. ALS with behavioral impairment was observed at 9% of patients, which mostly presented with apathy and disinhibition. A combination of cognitive and behavioral impairment was registered in 7% of patients. In another 7% of patients severity of cognitive and behavioral impairment reached a degree of dementia and corresponded to frontotemporal degeneration.
CONCLUSION. This cognitive and behavioral impairment is observed in a substantial number of patients with ALS and mostly presented with moderate executive and social cognitive dysfunction, as well as apathy and less often disinhibition.
