Authors: Cabral Caroline Victor Soeiro , Da Rosa Pinheiro Caroline
Published: June 2022

Contextualização: O artigo é fruto de um trabalho estruturado do grupo Empresa, Desenvolvimento e Responsabilidade (EDRESP), que no ano de 2020 avaliou os programas de integridade do segmento do Novo Mercado da B3 em diversos critérios, e, dentre eles, concorrência.
Objetivo: verificar a importância dada à matéria concorrencial como elemento de influência no funcionamento do mercado e enquanto standard assumido pelas empresas através de seus programas de integridade 
Método: pesquisa empírica, considerando que o trabalho se desenvolveu por meio da análise dos programas de integridade latu sensu das empresas do Novo Mercado, a partir da submissão, pelo próprio pesquisador, a um questionário estruturado - composto por perguntas cujas respostas foram pré-estabelecidas. No período definido de 15/01/2020 a 15/02/2020, foram submetidos à análise os dados dos programas de integridade de 142 (cento e quarenta e duas) Companhias, à época elencadas na listagem do Novo Mercado.
Resultados: Os resultados da análise de dados, resguardadas as limitações próprias à natureza desta pesquisa, a saber, o acesso integral aos dados das Companhias e às ações internas eventualmente empreendidas e não divulgadas por estas, demonstraram que, apesar da expectativa de que todas as empresas listadas no segmento do Novo Mercado contenham programas de integridade satisfatoriamente estruturados, os quais podem auxiliar na tutela da concorrência, os programas, aparentemente, falham ou em divulgar as políticas de forma completa ou em preencher todos os requisitos elencados e recomendados pelo CADE.
Conclusões: conclui-se que os programas de integridade, da forma como ora se apresentam ao público a partir dos sítios eletrônicos das Companhias do Novo Mercado da B3, apresentam conteúdo supostamente declaratório, que, a princípio, não vinculam os compromissos sustentados no programa de integridade.

Climate Change Impacts on Energy Generation from Renewable Energies in the Island of Crete, Greece
Authors: VOURDOUBASVourdoubas JOHNJohn
Published: June 2022

Renewable energies are expected to have a central role in the future zero carbon economy. However, their energy potential is affected by climate change. The current work investigates the future impacts of climate change on the energy potential of several renewable energies including solar energy, wind energy, biomass and hydro energy in the island of Crete, Greece. Previous research worldwide has indicated that climate change is going to affect positively or negatively the potential of various renewable energies while the impacts are different in various geographical areas. The goal of the current study is the evaluation of the impacts of climate change on the energy potential of solar energy, wind energy, hydro energy and biomass in the island of Crete. Our results indicated that climate change during 21th century is expected to increase the solar energy potential in Crete by around 4% while the wind energy potential is going to decrease by 6-12%. A slight decrease in annual precipitation in the island is foreseen while the agriculture and forest-related solid biomass potential is expected to decrease due to more frequent forest fires, more droughts and land desertification. Climate change is not going to affect significantly the potential of the rich solar and wind energy resources in Crete. The findings of the present study could be useful in sizing the new renewable energy systems in Crete which are required to generate the “carbon-free energy” in the emerging “zero-carbon economy” by 2050.

Authors: Mohammad Aljehani Layla
Published: June 2022

This study explores the effect of using color-coding teaching techniques on L2 learners’ accuracy of using English articles and quantifiers by employing a mixed method research design. The study aims to answer two research questions. The first research question explores the effect of color-coding grammar instruction on Saudi EFL learners’ accuracy of article and quantifier use. The second question explores the perception of Saudi EFL learners towards color-coding grammar instruction. To answer the first question of the study, a classroom experiment was conducted. To answer the second research question, interviews were conducted. The sample consisted of 82 Saudi female intermediate level students who are preparatory year students and taking general English language courses at the English Language Institute, King Abdulaziz University. The classroom experiment showed that there is a statistical significate in that the experimental group outperformed the control group which suggests that color-coding is effective for teaching English articles and quantifiers. Moreover, it was found that all the participants seem to prefer to learn by using colors more than black and white colors scheme.  Based on these findings, it is recommended that English instructional material is better learned when presented or enhanced using color-coding techniques compared with black and white color scheme.

Environment and health The earth does not wait. This is the world earth day theme which has just been celebrated (April 22) by mobilizing millions of people all over the world. This column also wants to remember this event by underlining how far is still the way to go in order to guarantee a healthy environment for all. To save the Earth and to save oneself it is necessary to put into practice a theme dear to paediatricians: "taking care". Humanity must begin to take care of the Earth by acting on a daily basis, but at the same time thinking of implementing actions that involve the entire community, actions that stimulate political decision-makers to legislate with a “taking care" perspective that underlies both individual and collective responsibility. From the numerous articles reviewed and summarized in this issue, it is highlighted that there are still many risks to children's health, starting from the prenatal period, and how important it is to implement individual strategies to reduce the risks. Starting from this issue we will highlight in a specific box the practical indications that every doctor and every person who deals with the health of children and of the world can put into practice and disseminate. As in the previous issues, the main articles published in the monitored journals are summarized. All articles and editorials deemed worthy of attention are listed divided by topic, with a concise comment. This issue is based on the systematic monitoring of January and February 2022 publications.
Uno sguardo al neurosviluppo raggiunto ai due anni d’età

Published: June 2022

When a psychological disorder appears in a child, even a mild disorder, early diagnosis is essential in order to provide a timely and appropriate intervention that can improve, both, the child’s symptoms and development. Early identification can prevent consequences of differing levels, in the short and long term, and in the individual, in his or her family, and in society as a whole. Hence the importance of paediatrician’s point of view and clinical know-how in identifying potential disorders early, but also the parents’ views. It is therefore important to actively involve parents upon initial diagnosis. In this regard, within the NASCITA Project, a study branch aimed at building a shared, active approach between parents, paediatricians and neuropsychiatrists/psychologists was activated for the age 2-year health assessments (wellchild visits) phase. Three tests were used: the M-CHAT-R (Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers, Revised) to evaluate language, social skills, behaviour, sensory areas; the PSI-SF (Parenting Stress Index –Short Form) to verify the degree of discrepancy perceived by the parent between the child’s requests and his or her ability to deal with them adequately; the DERS (Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale) to highlight the difficulties of each parent in recognising, interpreting, and managing their emotions. The tests were given to 380 parents (142 couples, 215 mothers and 23 fathers) by 45 family paediatricians during the wellchild visit held at two years of age. In all, 33 children (9%) resulted at risk, with a score of ≥3, 1 of whom was found to be at high risk. For 64 children (16.8%) at least one of the parents tested positive for PSI-SF and for 19 (5%) children at least one parent tested positive with the DERS. After combining the results obtained from the three tests and the clinical evaluation, and assessing the child’s condition with respect to those results, the pediatrician can provide the parents with a concise description of what emerged and provide a summarised report for the specialist. Such an effort leads to timely, shared communication within the parentpaediatrician-neuropsychiatrist triad that includes specificity of intervention and that can contribute to the effectiveness of the response.

Zhe Jiang: a Chinese practice-led research paradigm
Authors: Chen Chen
Published: June 2022

Broadly, in Chinese Zhe [ 哲] means philosophy and Jiang [ 匠] means craftsman. In contemporary Chinese art practice, Zhe Jiang [ 哲匠] has been defined as “thinking as a philosopher; making as a craftsman”. Artist-researchers who follow Zhe Jiang paradigm improve their artistic skills as well as the academic capabilities. In this article, firstly, Zhe Jiang paradigm is introduced by been compared with Western practice-led research. Secondly, the pathway to reach the mental state of freedom is explained from the aspects of inquiry and forgetting. The mental freedom can be considered as the most unique feature of Zhe Jiang paradigm. Thirdly, the ideal outcome of applying Zhe Jiang paradigm is stated as becoming a “better self”. Lastly, the primary methodology led by the Zhe Jiang paradigm is illustrated through showing examples from my film poem The Heart of Spring. Thus, this article unpacks a journey of exploring Zhe Jiang as a recently developed research paradigm. It draws into a working relationship approaches from both Chinese and Western thinking.
Immersive Photography: a review of the contextual knowledge of a PhD practice-led research project
Authors: Mortensen Steagall Marcos
Published: June 2022

Despite its 35 years of academic presence, practice-led research is still in the process of building its status regarding definitions and its discourse. One of the fundamentals of this type of research is that practice-led expands the study to encompass questions that emerge from practice. Practice-led maintain the scientific, academic protocols and observing academic rigour, following structures and themes with the characteristics of rigour: the study goals, the methods for specific media and processes, the substantiation of the process of discovery, and nevertheless, its historical and theoretical context. This article presents the contextual and historical review of knowledge of the practice-led project developed for my PhD project: ‘The process of immersive photography: beyond the cognitive and the physical’ and considers a process methodologically and conceptually, demonstrating its nature and the manner in which it occurs in a photographer’s practice. This process enables a deeply internal yet communicative interaction between the photographer and the land. The aim is to contextualise the main notions and concepts that informed the inquiry, and this article focuses on two of these concepts: immersion, and embodiment while contributes to clarity about the contextual and historical background that informed the research.
Going to the Clay: Exploring Conflicts and Values of the Soil in Valparaíso
Authors: Salgado Cofré Daniela , Mercado Jara Álvaro
Published: June 2022

This proposition presents a design and artistic research focused on the soil and aimed at generating active and poetic forms of reflection around the fragile interdependence of human and non-human lives in an increasingly precarious urban environment, emphasised by the current ecological crisis. In order to engage in such reflections, this practice-oriented research —led by designers, architects, artists and educators— explored and expected to make visible the transformation of peripheral urban areas of the Region of Valparaíso, in Chile. To do so, we focused on following the uses of the soil, identifying conflicts and values that emerge around these extraction sites through immersive sensitive experiences. These collective experiences titled ‘Going to the Clay’ had the objective of searching for clay pits in different sites as the means to establish sensitive connections with the soil and its matter. Thus, the sum of collective and creative explorations performed in the veins and clay pits of Valparaíso served to trace other relational ways of inhabiting, valuing, and working with the soil. We envisage this practice-oriented research project as a poetic alternative to critically question the modern technocratic logics of urbanisation that operate in the region through the commodification and overexploitation of the land.

Published: June 2022

Arsenic mobilisation from anthropogenic sources can have a significant impact on water resources andpose a serious concern to human health. Therefore, the objectives of this investigation were to determinethe levels of arsenic contamination in water resources and evaluate the associated human health risks tothe local residents from a mining environment in Fiji. Concentrations of arsenic were determined at fifteensampling stations located at Dakavono Creek, Lololevu Creek and Nasivi River in the Vatukoula GoldmineRegion over a period of time. Arsenic levels in the water resources ranged from 0.87-43.03 Î¼g l-1, whereby20% of the samples exceeded the drinking water guideline set by the World Health Organisation (10 Î¼g l-1).Concentrations of arsenic did not show significant temporal variations (ANOVA, p > 0.05) however,significant variation (ANOVA, p < 0.05) were observed between the sampling stations. The data werefurther used to assess the health risks of the water for drinking and recreational use. The use of the waterfor drinking (ingestion pathway) and recreational purposes (dermal pathway) showed high non-carcinogenic(hazard index > 1) and carcinogenic (cancer risk > 10-4) health risks with respect to arsenic exposure atseveral sampling stations, particularly in children. Overall, the carcinogenic risk from arsenic exposurethrough the ingestion pathway was much greater than that of dermal pathway for the inhabitants in thestudy area. These findings could assist with the formulation of necessary policies in order to ensure thelong-term management of water resources and mitigate health risks for inhabitants in mining locations ofFiji.

Published: June 2022

Medicines comprise an important element in healthcare, providing protection, restoring and maintaining people’s wellbeing. Then the availability and excess of appropriate medicines of accrued quality, and quantities at reasonable prices are thus, a concern of global and national policymakers, health agencies and organizations. Pharmaceuticals and medicines form a sizeable outer pocket expenditure of health in Indian households. In the context of providing universal health care, providing financial risk protection to households affected by illness is a key objective with a focus on providing cover for medicines. To address this issue, the Government of India launched the Jan Aushadhi (Medicine for the Masses) Scheme (JAS) to provide cheap generic medicines to patients. Jan Aushadi stores have been established across the country to supply generic medicines. Generic medicines provide an option for patients to reduce their out-of-pocket expenses, as generic medicines are usually priced 10-80 % less than their branded counterparts.

Authors: Kazibut Radosław
Published: June 2022

W artykule przedyskutuję wybrane aspekty relacji zachodzących pomiędzy koncepcjami powstałymi w filozofii przyrody a tradycjami ezoterycznymi. W tym celu odwołam się do ustaleń Antoine’a Faivre’a, który wylicza następujące toposy ezoteryzmu: korespondencję, witalizm, wyobrażeniowość i pośredniczenie, praktykę transmutacji, konkordancję, przekaz. Analizując dzieje kultury, można zauważyć, że obraz przyrody tworzony w filozofii przyrody łączył się z obrazem przyjmowanym przez alchemików, magów i astrologów. W artykule przeanalizuję relację pomiędzy alchemią a filozofią przyrody oraz obecność ezoterycznych toposów korespondencji i witalizmu w filozofii przyrody.
UMA CONTRIBUIÇÃO AO DEBATE SOBRE O ESPAÇO PÚBLICO CONTEMPORÂNEO
Authors: Carmona Vanegas Jorge Mario
Published: June 2022

O debate sobre o espaço público comumente é colocado dentro da disjuntiva público e  privado como base para pensar a realidade espacial de certos lugares que configuram a cidade. O público, usado como referência estatal e de carácter coletivo, assume-se como o espaço por excelência de uma totalidade social que se contrapõe à “natureza” do espaço privado, um espaço que emerge da propriedade privada e com especificidades jurídicas particulares sobre seu uso individual. Portanto, manifesta-se como o oposto ao público, alheio e separado da forma estatal e coletiva da cidade. Porém, como categorias do pensamento moderno, consideramos o uso analítico dessas categorias um obstáculo para compreender a lógica da produção capitalista do espaço na modernidade, prolongando e encobrindo uma realidade que se reproduz com seu uso, a desigualdade social. Neste sentido, se pretende assumir uma análise crítica sobre a realidade espacial capitalista a partir da crítica às categorias público e privado usadas comumente no âmbito institucional e acadêmico sem pretender superar sua oposição, pois isto, consideramos, é um sofisma que o pensamento burguês traz no plano do pensamento contemporâneo como estratégia para se perpetuar como forma de ser e estar no mundo.
AS CRISES NA ACUMULAÇÃO CAPITALISTA NO CAMPO EM PITANGA/PR: IMPACTOS DA TERRITORIALIZAÇÃO DO AGRONEGÓCIO SOBRE A DINÂMICA DA AGRICULTURA CAMPONESA
Authors: De Paula Adriano Makux
Published: June 2022

O objetivo deste artigo é analisar os impactos, na sua maioria negativos, das várias fases da acumulação capitalista sobre os camponeses de Pitanga/PR, no período de 1930 a 2017. Para tanto, utilizou-se a metodologia qualitativa e os seguintes instrumentos: revisão bibliográfica, pesquisa de dados estatísticos, entrevista semiaberta e sistematização. Esta análise justifica-se por revelar como as mudanças imprimidas pelos modos de produção impactam as vidas dos sujeitos que se reproduzem em um determinado espaço. Um dos resultados encontrados foi que determinados ciclos econômicos favoreceram a economia camponesa, permitindo até o seu fortalecimento, como no caso da extração da erva-mate e criação de suínos. Por outro lado, no ciclo de fortalecimento das madeireiras e das commodities agrícolas como a soja, intensificaram-se os processos de expropriação e expulsão, deixando o processo de resistência desses importantes sujeitos cada vez mais difícil, além de intensificar a precarização das suas condições de vida.
MANIFESTAÇÕES CULTURAIS NO LITORAL: O CASO DA PRAIA DE IRACEMA, EM FORTALEZA-CE
Authors: Barbosa Jessica Mesquita , Paula Davis Pereira de
Published: June 2022

Fortaleza é uma cidade litorânea com uma cultura plural territorializada em seus 121 bairros, que direta ou indiretamente fazem uso dos espaços costeiros para o desenvolvimento de atividades de lazer, recreação e cultura. Do total de bairros, apenas 15 são categoricamente litorâneos, ou seja, têm fronteira com o mar. Desses, o bairro da Praia de Iracema, historicamente, é o espaço litorâneo que mais sofreu transformações paisagísticas e culturais nos últimos 100 anos. Hoje, a Praia de Iracema é um dos principais pontos turísticos da capital cearense e uma das áreas mais procuradas pelo fortalezense para o desenvolvimento de atividades de lazer e recreação. Trata-se de um espaço com diversidade de serviços, eventos, lazer, música e arte em geral, com manifestações culturais que ocorrem em todo o local, organizadas por diversos grupos sociais. Assim, este estudo analisa como as diferentes paisagens da praia se formam com base nas manifestações culturais que nela acontecem e como elas repercutem em Fortaleza. Mediante uma abordagem regressiva-progressiva de Henri Lefebvre, com base em fatos pretéritos e atuais, o artigo analisa como se deram e se dão seus processos de uso – desde seu uso como porto, passando pelo uso médico, veraneio e atualmente de recreação e turismo. Fundamentado nessas discussões, analisamos como a espacialização da praia influencia sua dinâmica urbana e paisagística atual, e consequentemente, a imagem cultural e social de Fortaleza.

Se evaluó el impacto del pastoreo mixto vaca-oveja y de mono-especie (vaca) en dos tipos de pradera; alfalfa- ovillo (Medicago sativa-Dactylis glomerata) y otro con avena-ballico anual (Avena sativa-Lolium multiflorum), usando vacas Holstein y ovejas Criollas, sobre la calidad, desarrollo y rendimiento de forraje. El estudio, fue desarrollado bajo un diseño completamente al azar con dos repeticiones. El tipo de pastoreo no influyó (p>0.05) en cantidad, composición botánica y altura del forraje ofrecido. La dieta de vacas en pastoreo mixto sobre alfalfa- ovillo mostró cuatro veces más (p<0.05) material muerto que la de mono-especie. Las ovejas consumieron más (p<0.05) hojas de alfalfa y ballico anual que las vacas acompañantes. Solamente en alfalfa-ovillo las vacas en pastoreo mono-especie pastorearon 55% más tiempo (p<0.05) que las del mixto. El pastoreo mixto vacas-ovejas en praderas de dos especies de forrajes, permite mayor carga animal, sin dañar el rebrote y mayor eficiencia de cosecha forraje que el mono-especie.
Rooting of Dalbergia Sissoo (Roxb.) cuttings of seedling, hedge and tree form origin as affected by Auxins
Authors: Kanwar Trisha , Bakshi Meena
Published: June 2022

Dalbergia sissoo is an important commercial tree species known for its variety of adaptive and economic traits. Ontogeny plays a significant role in adventitious rooting in Dalbergia sissoo as mature trees of 12 yr of age do not exhibit marked rooting. However, cuttings from young donors receiving auxin treatment induce ample rooting for mass cloning and plantation programmes. Despite variable response to growth regulators in different experiments, IBA treatment with 4000ppm concentration clearly maintains superiority for rooting in juvenile and coppice shoot cuttings of Dalbergia sissoo.
