Authors: Tong Shenguang , Hao Hongjiang , Li Xiaofei , Li Hongbo , Liao Zhiyong , Wu Zhihua , Chen Hongbing
Published: November 2020

Many nanoparticles are used in food for increasing the bioavailability of nutrients. Nano defatted soybean particles (nDSPs) were promising as nanoparticles of a traditional food, but its safety remains pending. In this work, the possible toxicity of nDSP was tested on cell and mouse models. Cell proliferation and the viability of defatted soybean particles (DSPs), DSP tracking in gastrointestinal, and tissue histopathological examination were performed. The Zeta potential of nDSP was as low as ?16 ± 3 mV and had no cytotoxicity on Caco-2 cells or animal models. In the gastrointestinal tract, the nDSP showed similar absorption patterns with DSP of 500 nm or 1 ?m. In acute toxicity assessment, no abnormal behavior was observed in mice after DSP administration, and no noticeable tissue damage and inflammatory lesion were found either. Here, we show that DSPs, including nDSP, are safe at a single dose of 10 g/kg body weight, regardless of the particle size. The food property and aggregation behavior both help to make the nanoparticle safe.

Mulheres migrantes e trabalho doméstico no Brasil e no mundo
Authors: Filgueiras Lacerda Gustavo Marcel , Baía Camila de Paula Guimarães
Published: November 2020

A migração é um antigo fenômeno na história da humanidade. Hodiernamente, não se pode prescindir, na análise de tal fenômeno, de sua leitura a partir do recorte de gênero. Perceber o papel protagonista da mulher no seu processo de migração é fundamental para pensar o seu deslocamento, opcional ou forçado, em busca de manutenção da própria sobrevivência e/ou a dos seus dependentes. Nesse sentido, o gênero e a qualificação da mulher migrante serão decisivos para a determinação do posto de trabalho a ser ocupado no local do destino e as atividades a serem desenvolvidas. Tal definição é oriunda de uma divisão internacional sexual do trabalho, fundada no patriarcalismo. Às mulheres com pouca ou nenhuma formação, geralmente, são destinados os trabalhos do cuidado, em especial, o serviço doméstico. Assim, o presente artigo, a partir da análise do fenômeno migratório feminino, do trabalho doméstico no Brasil e no mundo e dos efeitos do trabalho doméstico sobre a subjetividade da empregada doméstica,  discorre sobre o trabalho doméstico exercido pela mulher migrante no Brasil e no mundo, evidenciando a desigualdade de gênero e fomentando a necessidade de realização de medidas que fomentem a igualdade no mundo do trabalho, tanto na perspectiva interna do país, quanto no aspecto internacional; tendo em vista o mundo globalizado e o fenômeno migratório contemporâneo.

Del armisticio, como factor estructural e histórico en Colombia, a la paz positiva
Authors: Palencia Ramos Eduardo , Ramos Morales María Leonor
Published: November 2020

El siguiente artículo trata de hacer una aproximación epistemológica a dos objetivos: primero; trata de demostrar que la paz negativa no ha resuelto problemas endémicos a nivel social y es la causante de, posteriormente, otros conflictos, quizás más cruentos. Y, segundo: la materialización del estado social de derecho coadyuva a que cambie la idea de paz imperante y transcienda a la positiva en la cual se busca solucionar irregularidades sociales.
Libertad por vencimiento de término y el derecho al plazo razonable de la medida de aseguramiento en la jurisprudencia
Authors: Ibáñez Macías Alejandro
Published: November 2020

El derecho al vencimiento de términos es considerado como aquella facultad con la que cuenta el procesado en el evento que el Estado no cumple con los términos procesales para resolver situación jurídica; cuando se desbordan estos términos de manera injustificada este es llamado a recobrar su libertad, no obstante, este plazo razonable puede extenderse a las señaladas por la ley, pero estas mismas deben ser acreditadas, no basta con un examen a la ligera, toda vez que al tratarse de un derecho de tal relevancia, este mismo debe ser analizado cuidadosamente, siempre inclinándose toda duda a favor del privado de la libertad, en caso de proceder circunstancias que da lugar a la extensión de dicha medida , estas deben ser analizadas de manera minuciosa, y así mismo debe pasar a justificarse y aprobar un examen de argumentación que permita concluir el porqué no se  reconocerá el derecho a la libertad.
El derecho a recurrir el fallo en la Convención Americana de Derechos Humanos y la legislación procesal penal colombiana: una aproximación desde el control de convencionalidad y la supremacía constitucional
Authors: Díaz Pedrozo Alexander
Published: November 2020

Existe una relación íntima entre el Derecho convencional y el Derecho procesal penal colombiano. Esta deviene del control de convencionalidad y el Bloque de constitucionalidad, las cuales permiten una interacción intensa entre el orden interno constitucional y legal y la Convención Americana de Derechos humanos. Este artículo recoge el desarrollo que ha tenido el derecho a recurrir el fallo (Art. 8.2h de la CADH) y el derecho a la doble instancia e impugnación (Arts. 29 y 31 C.P), encontrando un déficit en el orden nacional, que, pese a las reformas y desarrollo jurisprudencial, aún no logra colmarse. Por eso, hacemos un análisis comparativo entre los dos órdenes jurídicos y se plantea como armonizarlos, para que el derecho convencional protegido sea respetado en el orden nacional, con el fin de honrar lo pactado internacionalmente.

Facciones liberales en el Estado Soberano de Bolívar: 1860-1868
Authors: Bonell Pagano Carla , Mejía Turizo Jorge
Published: November 2020

Este artículo examina cómo las facciones políticas hicieron circular sus ideas a través de medios de divulgación como lo fueron hojas sueltas, pasquines y circulares a través de los cuales la sociedad de la época expresaba su opinión acerca de los sucesos coyunturales. Con aquel bagaje ideológico se intentó la movilización del electorado en las épocas preelectorales con el fin de lograr la adhesión de la sociedad a las candidaturas impulsadas por dichas facciones.  Así, el enfoque central está dirigido a las facciones liberales del Estado de Bolívar, en especial en cuatro facciones que se desarrollaron entre 1860 y 1868, teniendo en cuenta que se han denominado como tal por los historiadores para hacer referencia a las divisiones internas de los partidos tradicionales, y para el caso particular del Partido Liberal.

Published: November 2020

Este artigo tem como objetivo principal analisar a incidência das cifras negras no âmbito dos crimes de colarinho azul na cidade de Barreiras-BA-Brasil e sua implicância nas estatísticas criminais das agências de Controle Social Formal. Para isso, foi realizada uma pesquisa quanti-qualitativa, mediante aplicação de um formulário a 142 pessoas (cento e quarenta e duas). De 75,4% dos participantes da pesquisa, foi revelada a ocorrência de algum tipo de crime de rua, sendo, 66,4% relacionados a roubo. Também foi constatado que 46,2% não prestaram queixa alegando motivos diversos como: “a certeza da impunidade” ou até por “não acreditam no sistema”. Em relação ao atendimento prestado pela polícia ao reportar os crimes, 50% alegaram que este foi ruim ou péssimo. Desse modo, fica evidente a relação entre a ineficiência do Controle Social Formal com o surgimento das cifras negras relacionadas aos crimes de colarinho azul na cidade de Barreiras-BA-Brasil
Trocando as lentes diante do contexto migratório: Reflexos migratórios invertidos na relação entre Humanos e não Humanos
Authors: Reginato Amador Cristian , Antoniazzi Wolf Karen Emilia
Published: November 2020

O tema das migrações internacionais têm desvelado uma série de discussões ideológicas na atualidade, sobretudo acerca do impacto que este fenômeno vem causando nos países, em que percebe-se uma insegurança por parte dos nativos no que tange a supremacia nacionalista presente em alguns discursos. Ocorre que, no entanto, essa narrativa sempre se dá a partir de discussões que visam abordar as relações humanas nesse contexto, ignorando, então, outros agentes que também sofrem restrições diante da realidade migratória, que é o caso, por exemplo, dos não humanos. Através desta ótica, faz-se necessário “trocar as lentes” e trazer à baila uma abordagem que torne possível ponderar as consequências nas quais os animais não humanos encontram-se como principais afetados. Evidencia-se, desta forma, dois pontos que merecem destaque nessa discussão: os homens envolvidos em processos de mobilidade transnacional, ou abandonam seus animais, ou, ao adentrar num novo espaço soberano, o fazem sem qualquer preocupação com a fauna ali nativa. Acontece que em sociedades complexas o “diferente” torna-se alvo de exclusão e sua imbricação com as relações de poder ali existentes são notórias, e, ao ignorar que no contexto migratório o humano também é outro, ele acaba ignorando as necessidades dos não humanos que são, de igual modo, migrantes. A partir disso, problematiza-se a seguinte questão: em que medida o caráter especista das condutas humanas dificultam a proteção dos não humanos em realidades migratórias? Para tanto, o presente estudou restou organizado essencialmente em duas seções. Na primeira seção o objetivo é analisar os construtos das relações migratórias diante do contexto complexo e amplo que vivencia-se hodiernamente. Na segunda seção, traçou-se uma abordagem onde o foco da discussão é o não humano, destacando a realidade no qual este se encontra enquanto migrante. Para isso, utilizou-se o método dedutivo como método de abordagem e monográfico enquanto procedimento.

Published: November 2020

Resumo: Foram entrevistados os pediatras que exerciam clínica na cidade de Pelotas, RS. Em 1994, o conhecimento sobre questões relativas ao desenvolvimento e comportamento infantil e promoção da saúde foi avaliado através de um questionário estruturado. Dos 102 pediatras contactados, 75 retornaram o questionário. Os pediatras concordam na sua maioria que depressão materna e dificuldade no relacionamento influencia o desenvolvimento infantil. Somente 53% concordam que o tabagismo materno é causa de desmame precoce; 71% referem os fatores perinatais como o principal causador de atrasos no desenvolvi menta da criança. Embora concordem (84%) que a triagem para atrasos no desenvolvimento deva ser incluída na rotina pediátrica, somente 59% fazem algum tipo de avaliação informal do desenvolvimento. Embora quase metade dos pediatras exerçam algum tipo de função docente, não houve diferença significativa entre os docentes e não-docentes em relação às respostas encontradas. A maioria dos pediatras (77%) referem que a escola médica não proporciona conhecimento suficiente sobre o assunto, e 50% deles têm a mesma opinião sobre a residência de pediatria. Os resultados mostraram que ainda existem controvérsias a respeito de algumas importantes questões relativas ao desenvolvimento infantil, e apontam para a importância ele serem feitas modificações no ensino de pediatria tanto nas escolas médicas como nos programas de residência.

Published: November 2020

Resumo: Considerando-se a necessidade de aprimorar a qualidade do ensino, discutem-se duas questões: a avaliação, enquanto instância de acompanhamento do processo e de identificação das mudanças necessárias, e a reforma curricular. Nesse contexto, foi realizado, em agosto de 1996, o I Seminário de Avaliação do Curso de Medicina - sistema seriado, da Universidade Estadual de Londrina, para avaliação do curso e reflexão sobre a necessidade de reforma curricular. A partir das discussões ocorridas no seminário, foi projetado o perfil do profissional de saúde a ser formado, inserido criticamente na realidade, numa perspectiva humanista. Concluiu-se que, para gestar a organização de uma nova escola, capaz de formar um profissional com perfil projetado, é necessário um posicionamento crítico dos educadores frente às mudanças sócio-econômicas da realidade, bem como o comprometimento de toda a comunidade envolvida na elaboração de seu projeto pedagógico.
Thermodynamic analysis of hydrophobic property of a circular truncated cone microtexture
Authors: Sui Xin , Sun Yongyang , Liang Wenyan , Wang Yubo
Published: November 2020

Based on the three-dimensional thermodynamic model, the wettability of a superhydrophobic solid surface with a circular truncated cone microstructure has been investigated. The relationship between the microstructure of the circular truncated cone surface and superhydrophobic property is established by introducing the tension of the three-phase contact line in the composite state. The results show that the base angle and base spacing of the circular truncated cone have great influence on the wetting transition of composite and non-composite states. The theoretical expressions of the critical transition criteria are also given. The accuracy of the theoretical results is verified by comparing the theoretical prediction with the existing experimental data in the literature. The model established in this paper provides a theoretical basis and a reference for the optimal geometric parameters for studying the wettability of advanced superhydrophobic materials by using engineering microstructures.
Central Bank Digital Currency: A Literature Review
Authors: Carapella Francesca , Flemming Jean
Published: November 2020

Technological advances in recent years have led to a growing number of fast, electronic means of payment available to consumers for everyday transactions, raising questions for policymakers about the role of the public sector in providing a digital payment instrument for the modern economy. From a theoretical standpoint, the introduction of a central bank digital currency (CBDC) raises long-standing questions relating to the provision of public and private money (Gurley and Shaw 1960), and the ability of the central bank to use CBDC as a means for transmitting monetary policy directly to households (Tobin 1985).

Published: November 2020

Las anemias hemolíticas son un conjunto de enfermedades que producen la reducción de la concentración de la hemoglobina en sangre, como resultado del aumento en la destrucción de los glóbulos rojos. Dependiendo de la causa etiológica, estas pueden dividirse en hereditarias o adquiridas. Durante los últimos años, ha ido en aumento la evidencia que indica la participación del estrés oxidativo en diferentes anemias hemolíticas, dentro de las que se encuentran: la deficiencia de la enzima glucosa 6 fosfato deshidrogenasa, anemia falciforme, talasemias, anemia hemolítica autoinmune, hemoglobinuria paroxística nocturna y anemia hemolítica inducida por fármacos. A su vez, se ha sugerido que terapias antioxidantes pueden servir como posibles coadyuvantes en el tratamiento de algunos de estos trastornos hematológicos. Es por esto que el objetivo de esta revisión narrativa es describir concisamente los mecanismos mediante el cual se produce estrés oxidativo en los eritrocitos, su papel en las anemias hemolíticas y los efectos de la terapia antioxidante en el tratamiento de estas.
Oxidative stress and its role in cancer: a molecular perspective
Authors: Crespo Georgina , Di Toro Luis Alejandro , Desiree Valbuena , Perez Vicuña Jose Luis , Díaz María Paula , Souki Aida , Cano Clímaco , Salazar Juan
Published: November 2020

Cancer development is a product of cellular growth and proliferation caused by DNA mutations, nevertheless, other processes are able to favor tumoral progression, such as the activity of reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced within cells as a result of different metabolic reactions. Oxidative stress is defined as an imbalance between free radicals and highly reactive metabolites synthesis and the antioxidant system capacity to eliminate these molecules. In this sense, the overproduction of free radicals is a typical feature of neoplastic cells that allows the promotion of cellular processes related to survival, proliferation, invasion, and metastasis. Furthermore, underlying mechanisms involved in malignant transformation can modify the antioxidant systems in charge of ROS elimination. However, cancer has the particularity of presenting a dual behavior in which both antioxidant or prooxidant activity within tumoral cells can predominate depending on the stage of the disease. As a consequence, many therapeutic efforts have been directed into the stimulation or inhibition of oxidant and antioxidant components in the tumor microenvironment. The aim of this review is to describe the role of oxidative stress in cancer biology and its therapeutic potential.
Tourisme
Authors: Saidi Habib
Published: November 2020

Bien qu’il soit souvent admis que le tourisme trouve ses origines dans les voyages culturels effectués en Europe aux XVIIIème et XIXème siècles sous le nom de Grand tour, il n’en demeure pas moins que d’autres formes et pratiques que l’on peut assimiler à ce phénomène ont vu le jour dans d’autres régions du monde et à d’autres époques plus anciennes. La mobilité motivée par le désir de découverte, d’exploration ou de repos, a constitué au fil du temps un fait social plus ou moins commun à toutes les sociétés, et a dessiné le contour d’un Homo Touristicus en quête perpétuelle d’un paradis perdu. Il en est de même des activités de loisir et des structures de divertissement qui ont marqué à des degrés divers les grandes civilisations. En sont témoins les hauts lieux cultuels et culturels de l’Antiquité tels les sanctuaires, les routes et cités de pèlerinage, les édifices de spectacle de toutes sortes comme les cirques, les théâtres et les arénas.

En Égypte, des graffitis vieux de plus de 3500 ans inscrits sur les pyramides font état de la présence d’activités touristiques chez les Pharaons. Des vestiges d’hôtels dont les origines remontent à 1500 av. J.-C. ont également été retrouvés en Crète. La Mésopotamie connait la présence de constructions semblables depuis 2500 av. J.-C. (O’Gorman 2010). À son tour, l’époque romaine voit naître une culture de loisir connue sous le nom d’otium. Elle est marquée, entre autres, par l’aménagement de lieux réservés à la détente et à la distraction comme les stations thermales ou les villas urbanas, sorte de résidences secondaires consacrées à la villégiature et au retrait. Dans la même optique, les habitants des cités côtières du Golfe persique fuyaient l’humidité et la canicule de l’été en effectuant de longs voyages estivaux sous forme de caravanes en destination de lieux de vacances et de repos appelés Al-Makhidh. Ce sont des tentes et des maisons situées dans des oasis et des régions montagneuses plus fraiches localisées à des centaines de kilomètres du littoral. Ces caravanes dont les origines remontent à l’époque antéislamique, favorisaient le développement des traditions d’hospitalité et des structures d’accueil de visiteurs saisonniers autour des routes qu’elles traversaient et dans les lieux qu’elles fréquentaient durant quelques mois

Who Uses the Moral Panic Concept? A Bibliometric Analysis of Moral Panic Scientific Literature
Authors: Mikhaylova Oxana
Published: November 2020

In this paper, the bibliometric approach was used for the investigation of the research field
organized around the concept of moral panic. To examine the current condition of the moral panic field, we analyzed the papers published in the WoS from 1972–2019. As a result of our study, the thematic areas, and the most influential actors in the field were revealed and described. Today, the moral panic filed is dominated by sociologists. Among the leaders in terms of citations are authors from financially-developed countries. This shows that there is economic inequality in the production of papers. The most cited are publications devoted to online studies. The results of this research demonstrate that there is no noticeable erosion among the empirical contexts, where the concept is used because children and youth are still the most popular object of moral panic studies. They are the classical objects for moral panic papers. At the same time, it could be argued that this field is still in the process of development because the theoretical and empirical papers that prevail are connected with the integration of the moral panic theory with other theories and concepts. We suppose this approach to the conceptual analysis developed in this paper could be useful for the revision of other fields developed around controversial concepts in sociology.
The Probing of God-Bearer
Authors: Magun Artemy
Published: November 2020

The article is simultaneously an extended review of the book by Grigory Yudin entitled Public Opinion; or, The Power of Numbers (EUSPb Press, 2020) and an essay on the phenomenon of public opinion in the light of the repressive tendencies of contemporary society from the standpoint of critical theory. Relying mostly on Adorno, the author shows that public opinion polls are not only the result of the alienating reification, but also an effect of the basic subjectivism which turns the relationship between the subject and society into a detached, contemplative, and judgmental attitude. The objectivization coincides with subjectivization. Thus, in accordance with Yudin’s book, social science, if it wants to be more than an instrument of bureaucratic domination, has to rely on dialectical logic
Debating the Global East with Colleagues
Authors: Trubina Elena
Published: November 2020

The foreword to the thematic issue deals with the attempts to institutionalize and promote the central concept of the Global East. It discusses the “transfer” of the results of the geographical and epistemological reflection between different professional and intellectual communities and networks formed by specialists and “sympathizers”. The role of “face-to-face” discussions in attracting and retaining the interest of colleagues in the conceptual movement, the benefits of which are not obvious to all, is emphasized. It is stated that the debate about the new concept and its ability to generate changes in the organization of knowledge in and about the post-socialist region of the world is important for strengthening cooperation and activating interdisciplinary international research and its publication. It is argued that professional networks and the ways in which knowledge is disseminated within and between them depends on informal social connections. These connections become points of the crystallization of scientific collaboration or the exchange between different groups of specialists.

Morphology, pod yield and nutritional quality of two cultivars of Moringa (Moringa oleifera) in Bangladesh
Authors:   Department of Horticulture, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh, 2202, Bangladesh, Islam M Ashraful
Published: November 2020

Background/Objectives: Moringa (Moringa oleifera) is a multi-purpose tree with valuable nutritional density found in the leaves and pods. Both seasonal and year-round cultivars are available and consumed in Bangladesh. This study evaluated the qualitative and quantitative morphological characteristics and nutritional content in leaves and pods of moringa cultivars from two major ecological locations in Bangladesh. Methodology: The selected local varieties used were seasonal production (SP: V1) and year-round production (YP: V2) cultivars from the two ecological regions Chapai Nawabganj (L1) and Pabna (L2). Findings: Flowering and fruiting occurred once per year in seasonal cultivar (SP) and three times per year in year-round cultivar (YP). Flowers are zygomorphic; and tripinnate and pinnately compound leaves in both cultivars. The average yield of pods over two years of production for V1 was 45-62 kg/year/plant and 27-38 kg/plant/year for V2. Leaves contained more than two times higher protein (29-36%) compared to pods (11-15%). Similarly, nutrients including calcium and iron were significantly higher in leaves (2314-3487 ppm and 276-418 ppm, respectively) than pods (2017-2032 ppm and 61-68 ppm, respectively). There were no significant differences in potassium content of both cultivars in both location, but pod contained more than four times higher phosphorus (1.5- 1.7%) than leaves (0.34-0.38%). The highest amounts of magnesium (1768-1861 ppm) and sodium (496-535 ppm) were found in pods. Applications: Cultivar and plant part (e.g leaves) can be considered when promoting and utilizing moringa micronutrient for nutritional security. It demands for policies and development actions for production and intensification of moringa in dry parts of the country. Keywords: Moringa; cultivars; leaves; pods; morphology; nutritional security

Along with the Star Array® SATM Direct Extract Buffer, the protocol supports direct amplification without the need of specific RNA extraction equipment and kit. It significantly reduces the loss of RNA from the sample extraction and purification process, saves time and workload from sample preparation, and minimized the burdens on supply chain. The triplex fluorescence design of the kit simultaneously detects the N1 and Orf1ab genes of the virus and the human RNase P gene as an internal control to ensure the sample quality. This protocol uses the Star Array® XDiveTM Superfast Real-Time PCR instrument to perform 40-cycle PCR in 8 minutes, and can test up to 16 samples or controls in each run. The total protocol time from sample collection to data interpretation is less than 11 minutes. The sample collection steps is adapted from the published protocol: https://www.protocols.io/view/salivadirect-rna-extraction-free-sars-cov-2-diagno-bkjgkujw

Produtores do Mato Grosso tem demonstrado interesse no cultivo do amendoim, porém as informações geradas pela pesquisa ainda são insuficientes sobre épocas e cultivares. O objetivo deste estudo é determinar a melhor época de semeadura para 5 cultivares de amendoim nas condições de Sorriso-MT. O experimento foi conduzido em área experimental do Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia – IFMT Campus Sorriso, localizado no município de Sorriso-MT. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi em blocos casualizados, cada tratamento com 3 repetições, em esquema fatorial 5 x 5, sendo 5 épocas de semeadura (07/11/2019, 28/11/2019, 19/12/2019, 09/01/2020 e 30/01/2020) e 5 cultivares de amendoim (BRS 421 OL, BRS 423 OL, BRS 425 OL, desenvolvidas pelo Programa de Melhoramento do Amendoim da Embrapa e as cultivares EC 98 AO e Granoleico desenvolvidas pelo Criadero El Carmen da Argentina. As parcelas foram compostas por 4 linhas de 4 metros de comprimento e espaçamento de 0,90 m. Aos 135 dias após a emergência foram colhidas as plantas da área útil para determinação da produtividade de amendoim em vagens e a massa de 100 grãos. Nas condições experimentais em que foi desenvolvida esta pesquisa, pode-se concluir que a cultivar BRS 425 OL e Granoleico obtiveram as maiores produtividades na época de 07 de novembro, enquanto a EC 98 AO foi mais produtiva em 30 de janeiro em comparação às demais épocas de semeadura. As cultivares BRS 421 OL e BRS 423 OL não obtiveram diferença significativa quanto a produtividade nas diferentes épocas de semeadura, apresentando resultados similares em todas as épocas de semeadura, demonstrando possível adaptação às diferentes épocas. Portanto, ainda não é possível a definição da melhor época de semeadura para a região, sendo necessário pelo menos mais um ano de avaliação. A cultivar BRS 421 OL apresentou a maior massa de 100 grãos em todas as épocas de semeadura em que ela está presente, em comparação as demais cultivares. A semeadura na primeira época (07 de novembro), promoveu a maior massa de 100 grãos nas cultivares BRS 423 OL e BRS 425 OL. A cultivar EC 98 AO obteve as maiores massas quando semeada em 07 de novembro e 30 de janeiro. A cultivar Granoleico não obteve diferença significativa quanto a massa de 100 grãos nas diferentes épocas de semeadura.
Scientometric analysis of dissertation papers for the specialty "Occupational health" by example of industry branch studies
Authors: Shigan E. E.
Published: November 2020

Objective. Over the past time, more and more importance has been attached to the analysis of scientometric indicators of a particular scientific discipline, occupational health is no exception.

Materials and methods. A special place is given to the analysis of indicators of occupational health and safety in the workplace.

Results. The largest percentage of research is based on the study of the worker`s health in the mining, chemical and oil refining industries, metallurgy and mechanical engineering. During the same period, the share of dissertations dealing with the influence of production factors in agriculture decreased significantly.

Conclusion. This problem is not studied enough among knowledge workers, medical personnel, military personnel, employees of potentially dangerous facilities, workers of "peaceful" professions builders, transport. Representatives of other studied professional groups, including research on the development of occupational health of vocalists, migrants, athletes, as well as workers related to small and medium-sized enterprises, are also found, but in isolated studies, although the problems of prevention, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of occupational health disorders in these categories of workers are relevant, both in this country and abroad, especially in terms of the growing pace of world labor migration.

The objective of this study was to study the effects of different materials on mulching in combination with irrigation shifts on okra growth and yield. The experiment was carried out in campus II of Paraíba State University, located in Lagoa Seca (PB), it considered four soil mulches (without mulch, banana mulch sheath, bamboo leaf mulch and plastic tarpaulin) and three watering shifts (24, 48 and 72 hours) and used a randomized block design with four replications in a factorial scheme, totalyzing 48 experimental plots, from March to August 2016. Growth variables and production components were evaluated. We had positive effects of soil cover on water saving. The most efficient coverings were white canvas and bamboo leaves, resulting in greater water savings in okra cultivation without harming plant production. It is important to highlight, however, the absence of significant effect related to irrigation shifts on okra development and production, due to the occurrence of rainfall during the period in which the experiment occurred

Published: November 2020

This study starts from the considerations of teachers who live in an environment of constant technological modernization and that perform their activities under a climate of pressure and demands, which indicates, therefore, a possible scenario for the predisposition of Burnout Syndrome. Thus, these considerations led to the following research questions: how do the teachers of the Management and Business Academic Department in João Pessoa campus at IFPB perceive the effects of technological innovations on the performance of their functions? Can the level of psychoemotional commitment be a factor that may give rise to the burnout syndrome? Thus, the research aimed to analyze the effects of technological innovations on teachers’ daily life as a trigger to the Burnout Syndrome. In addition, the research, of descriptive and exploratory nature, was characterized as a case study that involved 38 teachers who answered a form using the google forms online digital platform. Results indicate correlated data between Technological Innovations, Burnout Syndrome and Gender. The results indicate correlations between technological innovations, burnout syndrome and gender. A positive correlation was observed between the variable “technological innovations” and the dimension “psychic wear”.
‘Crowded out’? Immigration Surge and Residents’ Employment Outcomes in Norway
Authors: Elstad Jon Ivar , Heggebø Kristian
Published: November 2020

This study uses Norwegian public register data in a spatial correlation approach, and analyzes associations between regional variations in immigration and employment outcomes 2004–2015 in a cohort of adult residents (N = 1.3 million). A higher share of immigrants in the regional population and an immigrant population dominated by low-educated were associated with slightly negative work income trends and less employment opportunities for residents, in particular for low- educated natives and earlier immigrants. A steep increase in the immigrant share of the regional population was, on the other hand, associated with better employment outcomes for all analyzed resident categories. Overall, regional immigration differences were only modestly related to the out- comes. Findings indicate that the institutional context has limited the role of market mechanisms in the labor market, and a booming regional economy will tend to neutralize potentially negative effects of immigration on residents’ employment.
