Authors: Cembranel Adir Silvério , Silva Stephanye Thayanne da , Franca Michelle Milanez , Pokrywiecki Ticiane Sauer
Published: October 2019

A água é um dos recursos naturais com maior suscetibilidade a degradação, as atividades industriais possuem elevado potencial de contaminação dos recursos hídricos. Assim, o objetivo deste trabalho foi identificar as possíveis fontes de contaminação e a caracterizar da água subterrânea utilizada em uma indústria metalomecânica localizada na região Oeste do Estado de Santa Catarina, bem como caracterizar o efluente líquido e avaliar o sistema de tratamento existente, indicando possíveis adequações. Na caracterização físico-química da água subterrânea foram analisados os parâmetros: cor aparente; pH; turbidez; Ferro total (Fe) e Manganês total (Mn). A identificação das potenciais fontes de contaminação ocorreu por meio da: 1) Inspeção do perfil do poço, com câmeras de vídeo; 2) Análise de parâmetros físico-químicos da água de poços da região; 3) Inspeções in loco e avaliações da estrutura da empresa. Na caracterização do efluente e avaliação do sistema de tratamento os parâmetros analisados foram: pH; DQO; DBO; óleos e graxas; sólidos sedimentáveis; fenóis; substâncias tensoativas; Fe e Mn. As propostas de adequação do tratamento embasaram-se em três procedimentos: 1) Ensaios de bancada com Jar-Test; 2) Ensaios no saturador com aplicação de microbolhas; 3) Análises físico-químicas do efluente antes e após o tratamento. Os resultados sugerem que o depósito de resíduos sólido da empresa possa ser responsável pela contaminação da água. As análises do efluentes indicaram que o sistema de tratamento é inadequado e os parâmetros de lançamento não atendem a legislação. Propõem-se substituição do atual sistema de tratamento por tratamento físico-químico seguido de sistema biológico.
Los Aportes de la Geografía en Estudios Turísticos
Authors: Padilla Noelia Aymara
Published: October 2019

La complejidad de la actividad turística produce la concurrencia de diversas disciplinas y perspectivas que contribuyen a su interpretación, aportando marcos conceptuales y metodológicos. El abordaje del turismo ha cambiado a lo largo de su desarrollo histórico y con la influencia de la Geografía. La investigación propone un análisis teórico de la vinculación entre Geografía y Turismo, a partir de una revisión del concepto de espacio turístico y su aplicación en estudios provenientes de la Geografía del Turismo.Desde los autores tradicionales de la Geografía del Turismo, con sesgo economicista, los resultados permiten dar cuenta que la comprensión del espacio turístico se basa en la presencia y distribución territorial de los atractivos turísticos que representan la oferta. Desde un visón actual con influencia de la geografía Crítica y Posmoderna, el turismo es una práctica social que abarca mucho más que el desplazamiento físico entre dos lugares. Estos estudios incorporan los impactos territoriales de la actividad, tanto sociales como ambientales.Del análisis se concluye que el estudio del turismo con influencia de la Geografía permite incorporar la interrelación entre los fenómenos ambientales y los sociales, estudiando las cuestiones propias del mundo físico natural en su cercanía, epistémica y material, con los procesos sociales que origina el turismo en los espacios locales.

The Moderating Effect of Gender on the Relationship Between Intellectual Capital and Audit Quality
Authors: Peprah Williams Kwasi
Published: October 2019

In our globe today, the auditing profession is under scrutiny. This is because of how audit quality can be ensured, obtained, and maintained. The problem of audit quality is discussed from the viewpoint of intellectual capital and the interaction of the gender of the auditor. Audit quality consists of auditors’ competence and independent, while intellectual capital is made up of human capital, rational capital, and structural capital. This research was a correlational design which applied self-constructed questionnaires with Cronbach alpha of 0.82 and 0.75 for intellectual capital and audit quality respectively.  Using a convenience sampling technique, 354(8%) out of 4,390 registered chartered accountants with Chartered Institute of Accountants, Ghana (ICA, GH) who were practicing auditors were used in this study. The study respondents were made up of 191 (54%) males and 163 females, of which 210 (59.3%) had attained degrees, and 144 (40.7%) had an MBA. The study used PROCESS v3.2 and Andrew Haye model 1 to establish the regression and the moderating effect. The results of the study disclosed that there is a high positive significant relationship between intellectual capital and audit quality, and intellectual capital can predict audit quality by 53.68%. Also, there is an enhancing moderating effect of gender on the relationship between intellectual capital and audit quality but not statistically significant. The study recommends that the role of the auditor on audit quality and their intellectual capital must not be differentiated. Therefore, attention must not be placed on the gender of the auditor to give a quality audit.
Foreign Remittances And Nigeria’s Economic Growth (1990 – 2018)
Authors: Egbulonu Kelechukwu Godslove , Chukuezi Oluchi Elleen
Published: October 2019

Between 2010 and 2017, remittances inflows  averaged a whopping 20 billon US Dollars per annum, more than double the foreign direct investment [FDI] figures for the period under review and more than 500 per cent of Nigeria commercial service exports. The figures could be comparatively intimidating when remittances inflows from unapproved and informal sources are taken into account. To this end it becomes imperative to consider the impact these remittances have had so far on the Nigerian economy both at the micro and macro levels. The ADF test was used to test for stationarity. The variables were all found to be integrated at 1st difference so we used the OLS technique to analyze our data. Results show a positive relationship between foreign remittances and economic growth. Also a strong two-way relationship was established between foreign remittances and foreign external reserve. Foreign remittances have come to be a major source of income for Nigerian families and households. Infant mortality rate which was included in our model as a measure of social welfare and human development was also seen to be on the decline and having no causality relationship with foreign remittances. This was rightly so because, as the study shows, the expenditure pattern of foreign receipts by households is tilted towards consumption. The study recommends the need for the country to strengthen the institutional framework required to harness the benefits of foreign remittances.
High-intensity interval training with long duration intervals is more effective than short duration intervals for improving glycolytic capacity in the rats’ gastrocnemius muscle
Authors: Akmali Azadeh , Saghebjoo Marziyeh
Published: October 2019

Background

There is little data regarding the ability of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) to increase of glycolytic capacity and intramuscular metabolic adaptations. The goal of this study was to evaluate the effects of HIIT (8 weeks, 5 times/week) with short (HIIT1 min: 16 × 1 min work and active recovery at 80–95% and 50–60% VO2max, respectively) and long (HIIT4 min: 4 × 4 min work and active recovery at 80–95% and 50–60% VO2max, respectively) duration intervals and 4 weeks detraining on the levels of phosphofructokinase (PFK), glycogen synthase 1 (GYS1), monocarboxylate transporter 4 (MCT4) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity in the rats’ gastrocnemius muscle.

Materials and methods

Fifty-four male Wistar rats were assigned into three groups, including HIIT1 min, HIIT4 min and control (Ctrl). After 48 h of the last training session and after 4 weeks of detraining, the rats were sacrificed, and the gastrocnemius muscles were isolated.

Results

The PFK levels in the HIIT4 min group was significantly higher than in the HIIT1 min and Ctrl groups, and after the detraining period in the HIIT4 minDT group significantly decreased compared to the HIIT4 min group. The LDH activity in the HIIT4 min and HIIT1 min groups were significantly higher than the Ctrl group and the increasing trend in the HIIT4 min group was more than the HIIT1 min group. There was no significant change in LDH activity after detraining compared to training. No significant changes were observed in the level of GYS1 and MCT4 after HIIT.

Conclusions

Eight weeks of HIIT with long duration intervals induced more improvements in intramuscular glycolytic capacity than a short duration. After short-term detraining, some of these adaptations have remained.
Letters home: German-American Civil War soldiers’ letters 1864–1865
Authors: Litty Samantha
Published: October 2019

Phillipp Schneider, German-American Civil War soldier and resident of Wisconsin since the age of 9, wrote 45 letters from March 1864 to August 1865, totaling ca. 22,500 words. I analyze these letters from a sociolinguistic perspective, considering both the unique mix of German and English usage and the socio-historical implications surrounding the letters. These are supplemented for comparison with two letters written by German-American Heritage German speaker and soldier, Jacob Goelzer, who wrote to Schneider’s sister twice in 1864. I describe the importance of when and under what circumstances these letters were written, and I also delineate instances from the letters of how the dominant community language, English, has influenced the German used and compare the use of German and English.
Civil War writings of the Pennsylvania Dutch
Authors: Brown Joshua R.
Published: October 2019

For eighteenth and nineteenth century Pennsylvania Dutch speakers, a variety of German was the language of their books, their newspapers, and their schools. Being far from the European homeland created a hegemonic shift in the linguistic lives of these early German Americans; they were adopting an American regional identity. Along with their shift in identities and in linguistic hegemony, structural aspects of the languages they used also changed: their written German was in contact with English and with their spoken Pennsylvania Dutch. In addition, the limitations of formal education in German at rural schools meant that the emphasis among most Pennsylvania Dutch was on the receptive knowledge of German and not on productive control of the language. In time, a variety of German called Pennsylvania High German emerged in the publications, writings, and schools of Pennsylvania. This article shares recent findings of a large corpus of written attempts at Pennsylvania High German by Civil War soldiers. It discusses both the structural aspects of their written language as well as the negotiation of their American regional identities through a multilingual lens at the first major moment of increased contact with outsiders.

$$\begin{array}{} \displaystyle \begin{cases} -\triangle u+V(x)u-l(x)\phi|u|^{3}u=\eta K(x)f(u),~~\mbox{in}~~\mathbb{R}^{3}, \notag\\ -\triangle\phi=l(x)|u|^{5},~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\mbox{in}~~\mathbb{R}^{3}, \end{cases} \end{array}$$(1.1)

where the potentialV(x) andK(x) are positive continuous functions that vanish at infinity, andl(x) is bounded, nonnegative continuous function. Under some simple assumptions onV,K,landf, we prove that the problem (1.1) has a non-trivial solution.
Characterizations of Benson proper efficiency of set-valued optimization in real linear spaces
Authors: Liang Hongwei , Wan Zhongping
Published: October 2019

A new class of generalized convex set-valued maps termed relatively solid generalized cone-subconvexlike maps is introduced in real linear spaces not equipped with any topology. This class is a generalization of generalized cone-subconvexlike maps and relatively solid cone-subconvexlike maps. Necessary and sufficient conditions for Benson proper efficiency of set-valued optimization problem are established by means of scalarization, Lagrange multipliers, saddle points and duality. The results generalize and improve some corresponding ones in the literature. Some examples are afforded to illustrate our results.
The adverbial function of qurʾānic verbal nouns taking the position of ḥāl
Authors: Dror Yehudit
Published: October 2019

Of Arabic verbal nouns’ various functions, this article focuses on their taking the position of ḥāl ‘circumstantial accusative’. Arab grammarians claim that a plain infinitive may replace a participle in the accusative, assuming the same meaning as the participle. I argue, however, that from the point of view of modern linguistics, these verbal nouns might be interpreted as having an adverbial function; more precisely, they perform the semantic-aspectual features of two types of adverbs: manner adverbs, which specify the mode of action, and state-of-mind adverbs, which describe a state of mind experienced by the agent of the action.
Synthesis of soft N-donor isoPentyl-BTBP and study on its removal of actinides from high level liquid waste
Authors: Ning Shunyan , Zhou Jie , Zhang Shichang , Zhang Wei , Wei Yuezhou
Published: October 2019

To directly separate actinides from high level liquid waste (HLLW), a novel molecule, i. e. isoPentyl-BTBP (6,6′-bis(5,6-bis(4-methylpentyl)-1,2,4-triazin-3-yl)-2,2′-bipyridines) was synthesized and characterized. A kind of isoPentyl-BTBP/SiO2-P adsorbent was obtained by impregnating isoPentyl-BTBP into porous silica/polymer support particles SiO2-P under reduced pressure. The effect of HNO3 concentration, contact time on the adsorption of isoPentyl-BTBP/SiO2-P towards 241Am(III) and 239Pu(IV) was studied. And the stability of isoPentyl-BTBP/SiO2-P in HNO3 medium was also evaluated. It turned out that isoPentyl-BTBP/SiO2-P had much higher affinity for 241Am(III) and 239Pu(IV) over FP elements in 3 M HNO3, fast adsorption kinetics towards 239Pu(IV), excellent stability in HNO3 medium, and should be a very promising adsorbent for separating 239Pu(IV) and 241Am(III) from HLLW.
Myocardial Infarction with non-obstructed coronaries – atypical presentation of pheochromocytoma

Published: October 2019

Although pheochromocytoma classically presents with headaches, palpitations and paroxysmal hypertension, atypical presentations such as cardiomyopathy, stroke and subarachnoid haemorrhage have been infrequently documented. We present in this case report, an uncommon presentation of pheochromocytoma with myocardial infarction with normal coronary arteries (MINOCA). A 79-year-old woman presented with central crushing chest pain radiating to left arm associated with headache, palpitations, sweating and difficulty in breathing. For 2 years, she experienced brief episodes of headache, tinnitus, dizziness, palpitations, and sweating that spontaneously resolved. Clinical examination was unremarkable except for high blood pressure (210/105 mmHg). Her electrocardiogram showed T wave inversions from V1 to V6 and elevated troponins (774 ng/L at baseline and 932 ng/L 3 h from baseline (normal <16 ng/L) in keeping with a diagnosis of non-ST elevated myocardial infarction. Coronary angiography showed normal coronary arteries. Patient was hence treated as myocardial infarction with normal coronaries (MINOCA). Despite appropriate treatment for MINOCA, she continued to experience episodic headaches, palpitations, dizziness and erratic blood pressures (particularly severe hypertension shortly after beta-blocker administration). Further investigations revealed raised urine noradrenaline of 4724 nmol/24 h (<554 nmol/24 h) and urine adrenaline of 92863 nmol/24 h (<77 nmol/24 h). Computerised tomography demonstrated a well-defined rounded mass in right adrenal gland morphological of pheochromocytoma. She underwent laparoscopic right adrenalectomy with histology confirming pheochromocytoma. This case highlights the importance of thorough investigation for the underlying cause for MINOCA. In patients with unexplained erratic blood pressure control, pheochromocytoma should be considered as a differential diagnosis.

Learning points:

Pheochromocytoma is rare tumour that often presents with non-specific symptoms.

It is important to investigate underlying cause of MINOCA.

Thorough history is the key to diagnosis.
Assessing by Modeling the Consequences of Increased Recombination in Recurrent Selection of Oryza sativa and Brassica rapa
Authors: Tourrette Elise , Bernardo Rex , Falque Matthieu , Martin Olivier C
Published: October 2019

Meiotic recombination generates genetic diversity but in most species the number of crossovers per meiosis is limited. Previous modeling studies showed that increasing recombination can enhance response to selection. However, such studies did not assume a specific method of modifying recombination. Our objective was to test whether two methods used to increase recombination in plants could increase genetic gain in a population undergoing recurrent selection such as in genomic selection programs. The first method, in Oryza sativa, used a mutant of anti-crossover genes, increasing global recombination without affecting the recombination landscape shape. The second one used the ploidy level of a cross between Brassica rapa and Brassica napus, increasing recombination especially in pericentromeric regions. Our modeling framework used these recombination landscapes and sampled quantitative trait loci positions from the actual gene distributions. We simulated selection programs with initially a cross between two inbred lines, for two species. Increased recombination enhanced the response to selection. The amount of enhancement in the cumulative gain largely depended on the species and the number of quantitative trait loci (2, 10, 20, 50, 200 or 1000 per chromosome). Genetic gains were increased up to 30% after 20 generations. Furthermore, increasing recombination in cold regions was the most effective: the gain was larger by 25% with the first method and 34% with the second one in B. rapa, and 12% compared to 16% in O. sativa. In summary, increased recombination enhances the genetic gain in long-term selection programs, with visible effects after four to five generations.

AGOSTINHO: A ÉTICA
Authors: Netto Francisco Benjamin de Souza
Published: October 2019

Certamente Sto. Agostinho jamais se propôs a escrever um tratado sistemático de Ética, ainda que o opúsculo sobre os costumes da igreja cristã e dos maniqueus possa representar um projeto desta ordem. Todavia, há em sua obra todos os elementos de uma ética, desde que se veja nesta a face humana do Deus Unitrino, isto é, a expressão de sua participação na Trindade, nos termos de uma indissociável unidade que abrange desde os princípios do humano à sua sobreelevação, a perfazer-se no amor que unifica e une. Eis por que um tratado à parte seria inexequível se colocado no registro da vontade qual instância estanque em relação à inteligência (ou à mente) e à memória.

É bastante notória, em A Demanda do Santo Graal (versão portuguesa de original francês do século XIII), a extraordinária severidade dos tabus sexuais. Para fazer cumprir a exigência de castidade que terá como prêmio o Graal, inventam- se estratégias aterrorizantes, destinadas a servir de exemplum aos vassalos de Artur. Dentre elas, destaca-se a figura demoníaca da Besta Ladrador, monstro configurado como uma espécie de Andrógino. A alegoria dá margem à pergunta que é o núcleo deste artigo: como a Demanda encara o mito da androginia?

Populismo e democracia em Francisco Weffort
Authors: Ferreira Marlon Antonio
Published: October 2019

O populismo se apresentou como a principal expressão das forças políticas das massas. Foi o momento em que essas massas se tornaram o grande “parceiro fantasma” no contexto de sobreposição da nova estrutura de Estado baseado na urbanização e industrialização. Via de regra, essa incorporação baseava- se nas massas através da concessão de benefícios como bens de consumo e o voto. Em todos os momentos que as manifestações populares se mostraram capaz de expor suas demandas, houve a antecipação dos grupos sociais que exercia o seu controle. Weffort, é um dos principais estudiosos deste tema, cuja preocupação estava em interpretar a forma como a moder- nidade se apresenta e passa a ser incorporada na América Latina. Também é uma busca constante para responder ao golpe militar de 1964, assim as análises vão desde o contexto de adoção da “teoria da dependência” até a sua posterior contestação no cenário latino-americano. Somos estruturalmente dependentes do capital externo e que impõe certas limitações ao desenvolvimento da consciência política desta classe.
Por que os oceanos? Por uma diplomacia estratégica brasileira para a biodiversidade em alto-mar
Authors: Magri de Queiroz Igor
Published: October 2019

A comunidade internacional decidiu agir para preencher as lacunas na regulamentação internacional sobre o uso sustentável da biodiversidade além da jurisdição nacional (BAJN). Esta é uma resposta para os desafios impos- tos pelo Antropoceno, seja pela deterioração desses recursos, ou pelo crescente aumento da presença humana em atividades relacionadas à BAJN. Assim, o objetivo deste estudo é compreender a dimensão da governança global da BAJN. A metodologia adotada é qualitativa, baseando-se numa pesquisa bibliográfica. Os resultados apontam para uma necessidade de apreender a governança desses recursos por uma lente da complexidade, em que as diversas forças regendo essa governança são consideradas, para se obter uma visão sistêmica. O Brasil ainda não construiu uma resposta estratégica para a BAJN, o que enfraquece sua capacidade de desenvolvimento sustentável baseado nos oceanos. Assim, oferece-se a diplomacia estratégica como ferramenta para a atuação brasileira com relação à BAJN.
Agenda ecológica e o sul global: crescimento, justiça ambiental e dívida ecológica
Authors: Todt Marcos , Berg Oscar Augusto , Fröhlich Matheus
Published: October 2019

presente artigo parte do pressuposto de que a agenda ambiental se inscreve no interior da luta de poder do Sistema Internacional e se interessa pela sua interseção com os embates entre os países do Norte e do Sul Global. Em específico, ele discute a construção da visão destes dois blocos sobre as relações entre desenvolvimento econômico e preservação ambiental. Ainda que o conceito de desenvolvimento sustentável tenha sido capaz de superaras suas posições antagônicas e evitar o boicote dos países do Sul à agenda implementada pela ONU, ele representou um ganho da ideia de crescimento econômico sobre as propostas de descrescimento e de redistribuição. Ainda, ele permitiu a manutenção do descaso dos países do Norte e do Sul a respeito de ideias como Justiça Ambiental e dívida ecológica. Para os países do Sul, em especial, isso representa uma ocasião perdida na luta contra a reprodução de desigualdades sistêmicas e internas, reforçando, assim, a sua posição de dependência em relação ao Norte.

Published: October 2019

ABSTRACT Objective: to know the expectations of family members of alcoholics living in rural areas under treatment in a Psychiatric Hospitalization Unit. Method: qualitative research, through interviews with 15 relatives of alcoholics living in rural areas and hospitalized in a Psychiatric Unit. Information was interpreted in the light of Phenomenological Sociology. Results: two concrete categories emerged: Expectations that the family member quits using alcohol and Projects of family members for the alcoholic after discharge. Relatives expected the alcoholic to maintain abstinence and planned post-discharge care, which involved everything from welcoming them to projects with a prospect of control or even fear of not being able to care for the alcoholic. Final considerations: most participants have positive expectations regarding psychiatric hospitalization, but some relatives are not confident about caring for the alcoholic and mentioned alternatives such as hiring a caregiver or nursing homes.

Method: A longitudinal study with 105 patients admitted to an oncological intensive care unit. The incidence rate was calculated as the number of events per 100 patient-days. Cumulative incidence was calculated both globally and according to selected characteristics, and submitted to hypothesis tests. Results: incidence rate per 100 patient-days was 1.32, and global cumulative incidence was 29.5%. A higher incidence was observed in patients with chronic diseases who had at least one episode of diarrhea, received enteral nutrition, and took vasoactive or sedative drugs for a prolonged period of time. Regarding type of tumour and antineoplastic treatments, no differences in incidence were observed. Conclusion: A high cumulative global incidence of pressure lesion was reported in cancer patients admitted to the intensive care unit, although tumour characteristics and antineoplastic treatments did not affect incidence.

ABSTRACT Objective: to create, apply and analyze in clinical practice the effectiveness of a bundle to prevent peripheral vascular trauma to approach the peripheral venous puncture process. Method: action research with 435 adult participants in an emergency service from 2011 to 2013. Creation of the bundle for prevention of vascular trauma based on scientific evidence, ease of operation, observation and measurement with implantation through an educational intervention of the team of nursing. Effectiveness analyzed by descriptive and inferential statistics using chi-square. Consecutive sample with 95% confidence interval. Results: Five stages of the bundle were related to the catheter fixation, permanence and removal process. The incidence of vascular traumas due to vein punctures reduced by 46.41% after implantation of the bundle to prevent vascular trauma associated with emergency peripheral catheterization. Conclusion: The bundle in clinical practice reduced vascular traumas by venipuncture.

ABSTRACT Objective: To identify common mental disorders and resilience in homeless persons. Method: Cross-sectional study with 49 homeless persons, assisted in the Casa da Acolhida Adulta and the Specialized Reference Center in a municipality in the Northeast of Brazil. Data collection performed between February and March 2018, using SRQ20 scales for common mental disorders and another for Resilience. Kruskal Wallis test, Student’s T-test and Chi-Square test were used. Results: In the study, 61.2% (30) participants have poor sleep; 69.4% (34) feel nervous, tense or worried; 71.4% (35) feel unhappy; 63.3% are unable to play a useful role in their lives; 71.4% (35) have common mental disorders, and 44.9% (22) presented low resilience. Resilience influences common mental disorders, which, in turn, are influenced by gender and age. Conclusion: Professionals who assist homeless persons need to have a look directed at common mental disorders and resilience.

ABSTRACT Objective: to present evidence of validity of an instrument aimed at evaluating the knowledge of nursing students about the care of the wounded patient, according to the difficulty and discrimination indexes of the items. Method: methodological study conducted in a nursing higher education institution with 117 undergraduate students and 38 professionals from a research group with experience in the area of wounds. For data collection, a questionnaire with 10 multiple choice questions was applied before and after classes on wounds. Results: most of the questions presented low level of difficulty and inefficient discrimination index, requiring a revision of the instrument. After two review stages, the difficulty and discrimination indexes of the instruments improved. Conclusion: an instrument with better evidence of validity was obtained. However, it still requires refinement for later revalidation in the same population.

ABSTRACT Objective: To verify the variation of the premature mortality rate caused the group of the main chronic noncommunicable diseases. Method: This is a time-series ecological study, which used secondary data of the Mortality Information System, from 2006 to 2014, from the 26 federal units and from the Federal District. Deaths caused by circulatory system diseases, cancer, diabetes and chronic respiratory diseases were included. The trend of adjusted mortality rate was analyzed by segmented linear regression. Results: Premature mortality tended to be reduced in most states, except for Maranhão and Rio Grande do Norte, which presented a stable premature mortality rate. Bahia, Pernambuco, Sergipe, Roraima and all the states from the South, Southeast and Central-West Regions reached the goal of reducing 2% per year in premature mortality caused by main diseases. Conclusion: Most of the states showed a reduced mortality rate and are reaching the proposed target.

ABSTRACT Objective: to evaluate the contributions of an educational program for capillary blood glucose self-monitoring. Method: a quasi-experimental study performed in an outpatient unit of a tertiary health care service in a sample of 25 people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, from July 2016 to December 2017, developed through interactive tools for care with capillary blood glucose self-monitoring. Results: among the items of capillary blood glucose self-monitoring that showed improvement after participation in the educational program, the most noteworthy are the “postprandial blood glucose values” (p=0.0039), “Interpretation of capillary blood glucose results with meals and medications” (p=0.0156), “recognition of the ‘weakness’ symptom for hyperglycemia” (p=0.0386) and “administration of medications correctly” for hyperglycemia prevention (p=0.0063). Conclusion: the study made it possible to recognize the main characteristics of blood glucose self-monitoring that may contribute to the care for the person with diabetes.

Published: October 2019

ABSTRACT Objective: to understand how nurses deal with the elderly’s autonomy at the end of life. Method: qualitative, exploratory study, guided by the Grounded Theory. Ten nurses, eight doctors and 15 nursing technicians were interviewed between November 2016 and May 2017 at a university hospital in Rio de Janeiro/Brazil. Results: nurses deal with the elderly’s autonomy in compliance with the code of ethics and exercise leadership in actions and interactions to defend this right, evaluating, guiding and listening to the preferences of the elderly; interacting with the family; and sharing information with the health team. Final considerations: the elderly’s autonomy must be ensured in care planning, based on patient-centered communication and developed in the interaction among agents involved in care. The discussion on “Living Wills” Health Care Directives and principles of palliative care must be encouraged.

ABSTRACT Objective: to determine the presence of socio-environmental risk factors for the development of Green Tobacco Sickness in workers who grow Burley tobacco. Method: matched case-control study. The data collection took place in two moments: from December 2016 to January 2017 and December 2017, when the Burley tobacco was collected, through a household survey with interview application and urine collection for urinary cotinine. Results: the socio-environmental risk factors that remained associated with the disease were: bundling tobacco (p=0.047) and wearing socks (p=0.011); with protective effect were found sticking tobacco seeding of the day (p=0.006) and number of tobacco harvested per day (p=0.021). Conclusion: the steps in the Burley tobacco work process increase the exposure and risk of developing the disease. By identifying these factors, it is possible to address interdisciplinary control and prevention measures.

ABSTRACT Objective: to understand the process that leads adult and family patients to support family presence in emergency care. Method: a qualitative study that adopted Symbolic Interactionism as a theoretical reference and the Grounded Theory as a methodological framework. The theoretical sample consisted of 15 relatives and 15 patients assisted at two emergency units in the South of Brazil. Data were analyzed using open, axial and selective coding. Results: the central category “Convergence of ideas: family members and patients supporting family presence in emergency care” is supported by the categories: “Affectionate relationship among family members”; “Tacit obligation to care for the sick relative”; “Benefits for the family”; “Benefits for the patient”; and “Benefits for the health team”. Conclusion: family presence in emergency care provides maintenance and strengthening of affectionate bonds among relatives and the experience of more sensitive and qualified care.
