Investigating the Prevalence of Contrast-associated Nephropathy and the Related Risk Factors in Patients Undergoing Elective Angioplasty
Authors: Dianatkhah Mehrnoush , Poursaeid Samira , Shirvani Ehsan , Badri Shirinsadat
Published: January 2024

Objective:

Contrast-associated nephropathy (CAN) is a sudden decrease in kidney function following contrast media administration. Considering the importance of CAN in the patient’s outcome and the high prevalence of this complication in cardiac catheterizing centers, this study was designed to investigate the prevalence and the related risk factors of CAN in patients undergoing angioplasty in Chamran Heart Hospital, Isfahan, Iran, from January 2022 to June 2022.

Methods:

The inclusion criteria were adult patients above 18 admitted for elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Patient demographic information, underlying diseases and medications, dehydration state, type and amount of contrast media, and serum levels of blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine (SrCr) at 24 and 72 h after contrast injection were all recorded.

Findings:

Out of 340, 128 patients developed CAN after PCI, giving an incidence of 37.64%. Adjusted analysis showed a significant relation between age over 65, the amount of contrast media administered, and the use of furosemide with the incidence of CAN. However, adjusted logistic regression analysis failed to show any significant relationship between the risk of CAN and the hydration status of the patients at 24 and 48 h after receiving contrast media as diagnosed by BUN/SrCr >20.

Conclusion:

The prevalence of CAN in this study was higher than in other studies since this high-risk population was under risk factors such as arterial injection of contrast material and a higher amount of contrast material administration. In addition, advanced age, volume of contrast material, and previous or concurrent furosemide administration were associated with an increased risk of CAN.

A key factor in constructing buildings leaning on soft soil is the consolidating coefficient of the soil referred as Cv. It is a crucial lab-measured engineering parameter utilized during the design and verification of geotechnical structures. Nevertheless, experimental experiments take a lot of time and money. In this study, the   is projected using Fuzzy Neural Network (FNN) with optimized feature selection using Teaching Learning-based Optimization, estimating Cv as the most crucial step (TLO), which has enhanced the quality of the prediction model by removing unnecessary characteristics and relying solely on crucial ones. The experimental results demonstrate that the projected FNN, followed by the Multi-layer Training algorithm Neural Network (MLP), Impact of changing Optimization (BBO), a support vector regression (SVR), Back - propagation algorithm Multi-layer Training algorithm Bayesian Network (Bp-MLP Neural Nets), has the highest predictive validity for the prediction of   (Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE )= 0.379, Mean Absolute Error (MAE) = 0.26, and coefficient of determination r = 0.835). Hence, it can be said that even if all used models perform well in predicting the soil consolidation coefficient, the FNN-TLO performs the best.
Comparison of all-cause mortality associated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease in Taiwan MJ cohort
Authors: Cheng Wei-Chun , Chen Hua-Fen , Cheng Hsiu-Chi , Li Chung-Yi
Published: January 2024

OBJECTIVES: The global burden of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is rising. An alternative term, metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), instead highlights the associated metabolic risks. This cohort study examined patient classifications under NAFLD and MAFLD criteria and their associations with all-cause mortality.METHODS: Participants who attended a paid health check-up (2012-2015) were included. Hepatic steatosis (HS) was diagnosed ultrasonographically. NAFLD was defined as HS without secondary causes, while MAFLD involved HS with overweight/obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, or ≥2 metabolic dysfunctions. Mortality was tracked via the Taiwan Death Registry until November 30, 2022.RESULTS: Of 118,915 participants, 36.9% had NAFLD, 40.2% had MAFLD, and 32.9% met both definitions. Participants with NAFLD alone had lower mortality, and those with MAFLD alone had higher mortality, than individuals with both conditions. After adjustment for potential confounders, the hazard ratios (HRs) for all-cause mortality were 1.08 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.78 to 1.48) for NAFLD alone and 1.26 (95% CI, 1.09 to 1.47) for MAFLD alone, relative to both conditions. Advanced fibrosis conferred greater mortality risk, with HRs of 1.93 (95% CI, 1.44 to 2.58) and 2.08 (95% CI, 1.61 to 2.70) for advanced fibrotic NAFLD and MAFLD, respectively. Key mortality risk factors for NAFLD and MAFLD included older age, unmarried status, higher body mass index, smoking, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, and advanced fibrosis.CONCLUSIONS: All-cause mortality in NAFLD and/or MAFLD was linked to cardiometabolic covariates, with risk attenuated after multivariable adjustment. A high fibrosis-4 index score, indicating fibrosis, could identify fatty liver disease cases involving elevated mortality risk.

Green Public Procurement – Problem or Challenge
Authors: Wójtowicz-Dawid Anna
Published: January 2024

Green procurement policies (GPP) are procedures based on public procurement law that apply environmental criteria in at least one stage of the procedure in provisions related to the person of the contractor or the subject matter of the contract. The author addresses the subject of GPP in the context of an analysis of whether the introduction of the application of actual GPP requires changes to the existing public procurement legislation. The subject of the article is not to define the meaningful scope of GPP or the principle of effectiveness, but to look at it from the perspective of application.

The author, analysing the current legislation, indicates that the current legal system of public procurement due to the voluntary application of green procurement with some inclusions resulting from specific provisions is sufficient enough not to be an obstacle to its application.

In the author's opinion, other changes are necessary to change the behaviour, habits and mentality of those responsible for public procurement proceedings.

The article was prepared using the legal-dogmatic method related to the analysis and interpretation of legal acts related to the issue of green public procurement. It was supplemented by a comparative legal method, which allowed for the analysis and identification of existing legal norms as well as the basis for the use of green procurement in procedures based on public procurement law.
Contribution in Social Insurance
Authors: Sowiński Tomasz
Published: January 2024

The article deals with financial law institutions from the space of public tributes. The author subjects the institutions of social security contribution, tax and fee to a legal analysis. He also examines the views of representatives of the doctrine of financial law by making a dogmatic analysis concerning these three types of tributes. It presents the various forms of their application, with the aim of understanding their nature in connection with the broader institutions of public law in which they are applied, being a way of raising the funds necessary for their proper functioning and fulfillment of their role. The goal is to determine whether they are substitutable in the proper performance of a public function, or alternatively whether they can have a form that is altered from that accepted in the doctrine, and whether this will also determine the nature of the larger institution of which they are an element.
Splitterpoetologie: Thomas Manns Gerda-Komplex zwischen Bibliothek, Frühwerk und "Joseph in Ägypten"
Authors: Schönbächler Martina
Published: January 2024

Die Studie untersucht Thomas Manns reale und virtuelle Bibliothek sowie die Lesespuren, die darin zu finden sind, und stellt sie Manns Gesamttext gegenüber Was ist eine Autor:innenbibliothek und wie lässt sich mit ihr literaturwissenschaftlich arbeiten? In welchem Verhältnis zeigen sich in einem Romantext wie Thomas Manns »Joseph in Ägypten« (1936) die in seiner Nachlassbibliothek physisch erhaltenen, die bloß sekundär belegbaren und die nichterhaltenen Lektüren des Autors? Wie fügen sich daraus Textmotive und Bedeutungssplitter zu einem narrativen Muster zusammen, und wie verändert sich dieses von Text zu Text? Schönbächlers Studie geht solchen Fragen anhand eines Motivkomplexes nach, der in Thomas Manns Frühwerk Gestalt annimmt und der im dritten Band der »Joseph«-Tetralogie einen bedeutsamen Wandel durchläuft: Erstmals widerfährt einer Frauenfigur die Mann`sche ›Heimsuchung‹ von der eigenen Leidenschaft. Geschlecht wird so zum Vehikel, das in der Zeit des deutschen Faschismus eine Ehrenrettung früherer Vorstellungen von Deutsch- und Künstlertum erlaubt. Schönbächlers intertextuell-poetologische Perspektive macht einerseits die Durchlässigkeit zwischen Bibliothek und Werk sichtbar und andererseits deren Diskurspoetologie.
Pöbel, Poet und Publikum: Figuren arbeitender Armut in der Frühen Neuzeit
Authors: Widder Roman
Published: January 2024

Im »pöbel« oder »pofel« erkannten die Gelehrten bereits in der Frühen Neuzeit eine große Gefahr für das Gemeinwesen: für die Ordnung des Staates, aber auch für die Konventionen der frühneuzeitlichen Gelehrtenrepublik selbst. Durch Mangel an Arbeitsfleiß und Bildungstrieb stört der Pöbel seitdem immer wieder die soziale Ordnung. Wer oder was aber ist dieser Pöbel, von dem auch die Gegenwart wieder zu berichten weiß? Wer nannte wen wann und aus welchem Grund »Pöbel«? Roman Widders Studie verbindet Sozial-, Protest- und Literaturgeschichte, um ein fundiertes historisches Verständnis des Pöbels als Verwerfung arbeitender Armut zu entwickeln. Gerade für die Dichtkunst war der Pöbel ein omnipräsentes Problem, weil sich in ihm die Prekarisierung des literarischen Lebens artikulierte. Verstanden als Sprechakt und figura - als Sozial- und Redefigur gleichermaßen - fällt die Rede vom Pöbel nämlich auf den Sprecher zurück. Die Exklusion der Ehrlosen aus dem literarischen Gewerbe zeugt deshalb keineswegs von der elitären Autonomie der Urteilenden; sie soll vielmehr den schwankenden Wert der eigenen Rede steigern und bringt so die materiellen Voraussetzungen publizistischer Rede zur Sprache. Der Pöbel als Figur der Poetik korrespondiert dabei in der Frühen Neuzeit mit verwandten Figuren wie dem Pickelhering in der Komödie und dem Pikaro im Roman. In Texten u.a. von Opitz, Gryphius und Grimmelshausen zeigt Widder, dass der Pöbel als Übersetzungsfigur zwischen symbolischem und ökonomischem Kapital zu deuten ist. Dabei rückt besonders die massive Geldentwertung der sogenannten Kipper- und Wipperzeit um 1620 in den Blick, denn bereits hier ist die Überschneidung politischer und literarischer Exklusionsbestrebungen exemplarisch greifbar. Im Zuge der Formierung der bürgerlichen Gesellschaft zu Beginn des 18. Jahrhunderts kommt die Entwertung arbeitender Armut (labouring poor) als »Pöbel« schließlich zur vollen Entfaltung.
Les belles forteresses des chroniques de Monstrelet et leur continuation dans les manuscrits de Georges d’Amboise (Paris, Bibliothèque Nationale de France, Ms. 2678-2679)
Authors: Raynaud Christiane
Published: January 2024

Monstrelet’s Chronicles laconically mention fortresses, with adjectives that are not very explicit. The descriptions are few and incomplete.For Jean Pichore and the Master of Philippe de Gueldre, charged with illustrating these accounts, this was no mean feat. However, the images they giveare among the most successful, whatever the extent of stereotypes or elementsborrowed from reality. An inventory of what define the beauties of these forts and citadels - tall and emblematic silhouettes, imposing masses with sober or overloaded decorations, luxurious interiors - sheds light on the evolution of contemporary tastes and sensibilities between French tradition and Italian influence. Cardinal Georges d’Amboise, the bibliophile who commissioned these manuscripts and owned fortifications he built or refurbished, was thus able to recognize and appreciate the architectural discourse, concepts and lexicon of his time, despite a few improbabilities and clumsiness

Authors: Akbar Mustafa , Al-Shama’a Aysar
Published: January 2024

The current research aims to evaluate the hydrogeological characteristics of the water-bearing layers in the study area. Because of the absence of observation wells near the pumping wells, the single pumping test experiment was achieved at seven wells, GW1, GW2, GW8, GW9, GW11, GW13, and GW16, distributed in the study area. The pumping test records were analyzed using Aquifer Test 2016.1 software, which is based on four methods: Theis, Hantush, Cooper-Jacob, and Theis recovery. The average values of transmissivity for the upper aquifer in the study area ranged between 13.4 m2/ day and 279 m2/ day, while the hydraulic conductivity ranged between 0.162 m/day and 4.14 m/day, and the storativity was 0.166 and 0.826. For the lower aquifer, the transmissivity ranges between 11.4 m2/ day and 177 m2/ day, the hydraulic conductivity is 0.214 m/ day and 1.17 m/ day, and the storativity is 0.0791 and 0.99.

Published: January 2024

Several areas in Batu City, Indonesia, often experience landslides when entering the rainy season; landslides occur at several points, including the Payung area on Jalan Trunojoyo. This area connects several districts in East Java, such as Malang Regency, Kediri City, and Jombang Regency. If this area experiences a landslide, the access road will be closed, forcing road users to look for another route that is further away. This study aims to map areas potentially prone to landslides on the Payung tourism road in Batu City, Indonesia. Gravity anomaly measurements were carried out using gravity data from the GGMplus satellite with a distance between data points of 220 m. The processing results are then correlated with the landslide hazard map made by InaRISK BNPB. Based on the residual anomaly map, the measured values are between -13.4 to -5 mgal (low), -5 to 5 mgal (moderate), and 5 to 12 mgal (high). Where the low zone shows the area with the lowest density, the low-density zone has a large enough landslide potential. So, the Trunojoyo road in the Payung area, Batu City, is a landslide-prone zone with very low rock density. The results of this study are expected to provide recommendations for mitigating landslides to the local government.

Published: January 2024

The Safeen Mountain is one of the main mountains in the Iraqi Kurdistan Region, it forms one of the long anticlines trending NW – SE. The exposed formations on the top of the mountain are Qamchuqa, Bekhme, and Shiranish, with carbonate rocks of different types and thicknesses. Sampling took place in the exposed rocks on the top of the mountain where a road crosses the mountain, and a total of 20 samples out of 84 m thickness of the outcrop were collected. The distance between sampling intervals was depending on the lithological variation of the bedrock and each sample was collected to represent the sampling interval. The samples were subjected to XRF to indicate the main oxides percentages in each sample. The acquired results from the XRF showed the studied rocks can be used for cement and paper industries based on Iraqi Standards. They can also be considered using it in the sugar industry after a slight modification as well as in the drug industry.

Published: January 2024

The study is situated in the Kokoe Region of Central Buton Regency, Southeast Sulawesi, specifically in the southern part of Kabaena Island. Its primary objective is to assess the potential of nickel laterite in the designated area. The research methodology involved microscopic analysis of bedrock using a polarizing microscope, examining the drilling data, including logging descriptions, and utilizing XRF geochemical analysis (Ni, Fe, Al2O3, Co, Mg, and SiO2) from 32 drilling sites. Both elementary grade and laterite profiles were visualized using Strater 5 software to simplify the representation of laterite profiles. Petrographic analysis divided the bedrock into two lithological units: serpentinized lherzolite and serpentinite. The laterite profiles in the study area were classified into four types: type A, type B, type C, and type D. Type A profiles consist of bedrock, saprolite, and limonite layers covered by clay and colluvium. Type B profiles lack limonite and instead exhibit saprolitic rock and rocky saprolite layers on top of the bedrock. Type C profiles comprise bedrock, saprolitic rock, rocky saprolite, limonite, and topsoil layers. Type D profiles contain three zones, namely bedrock, colluvium, and clay, but lack limonite and saprolite layers. Among the four profile types, type A and type C profiles show promising potential due to higher average grades of Ni and thicker saprolite zones compared to the type B and type D profiles.

Published: January 2024

The government has currently drafting and discussing a Presidential Regulation on expanding the Indonesian military mandate on combating terrorism. This regulation was proposed as an alternative to combat threats from growing terrorism in Indonesia and to strengthen anti-terrorism acts initiated by civil counter-terrorism institutions. This paper uses a literature study to observe the social implications of military involvement in counter-terrorism. The writers try to review the deployment of the military to combat terrorism, the counter-terrorism from civil counter-terrorism institutions, military involvement in counter-terrorism and its implications, as well as its implications on Indonesia’s social sector. It was concluded that the social impact of expanding the role of the TNI in counter-terror needs to be balanced with the community's wishes and redefine the meaning of extremism to avoid polemics in the community. AbstrakSaat ini pemerintah tengah melakukan penyusunan dan pembahasan Peraturan Presiden tentang perluasan tugas TNI dalam Mengatasi Aksi Terorisme.

Published: January 2024

Tenaga kesehatan dari daerah melakukan migrasi ke Jakarta untuk mendapatkan pekerjaan yang lebih baik. Terutama selama wabah Covid-19 merebak, banyak rumah sakit di Jakarta membutuhkan tambahan staf untuk menangani peningkatan permintaan layanan kesehatan. Dengan adanya kesempatan untuk menjadi sukarelawan, petugas kesehatan dari daerah menyadari adanya peluang untuk menyumbangkan keterampilan mereka serta meningkatkan peluang kerja. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi tantangan dan dampak yang mereka hadapi di daerah asal mereka. Dengan menggunakan metode kualitatif melalui wawancara mendalam terhadap empat mantan relawan di Rumah Sakit Islam Jakarta Sukapura, penulis menemukan bahwa pandemi Covid-19 berdampak signifikan terhadap perpindahan tenaga kesehatan dari daerah ke Jakarta. Data dianalisis menggunakan teknik Miles dan Huberman, yang melibatkan proses sistematis reduksi data dan penarikan kesimpulan untuk menghasilkan teori yang membumi. Hasil yang didapatkan dari analisis proses migrasi ini disebabkan oleh masalah-masalah seperti pembayaran yang kurang, gaji yang tertunda, dan kurangnya prospek karir di daerah asal mereka. Kondisi ini telah tertuang dalam peraturan undang-undang kesehatan saat ini, Undang-Undang Nomor 17 Tahun 2023, khususnya pada Pasal 235 dan 229, dengan tujuan untuk meningkatkan kesetaraan sistem pelayanan kesehatan di seluruh Indonesia.Abstract: Health workers from rural areas were eager to migrate to Jakarta for better employment. After the Covid-19 outbreak, many hospitals in Jakarta needed additional staff to handle the increased demand for health services. With the call for volunteers, health workers from rural areas recognized an opportunity to contribute their skills as well as improve employment opportunities. This article aims to explore the challenges and the implications that they encountered in their former regions. By employing a qualitative method using in-depth interviews with four former volunteers at Jakarta Islamic Hospital Sukapura, the authors discovered that the Covid-19 pandemic significantly impacted the movement of health workers from rural areas to Jakarta. The data were analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s techniques, involving systematic processes of data reduction and conclusion drawing to generate grounded theories. Results from the analysis of this migration process include underpayment, delayed salaries, and a lack of career prospects in their previous regions. This condition is also stated in the recent health law regulations, as outlined in Law Number 17 of 2023, specifically in Articles 235 and 229, with the aim of enhancing health system equality across Indonesia.
Kesiapan Pemerintah Daerah Provinsi Riau dan Sumatera Selatan dalam Pelaksanaan Kebijakan Restorasi Gambut
Authors: Qodriyatun Sri Nurhayati
Published: January 2024

Peatland restoration policy was launched by the government to reduce negative impacts of forest and land fires on peatlands. Riau Province and South Sumatera Province are two provinces in the list of priority locations of the implementation of peatland restoration policy in 2016. What raises as a problem is the nature of preparedness of the two provinces in implementing the policy. Through qualitative research conducted in 2016, the research showed that South Sumatera Province is better prepared in implementing policy, as seen from the implemented program, prepared resources, and commitment of regional head in the implementation of the policy. However, policy implementation is constrained by the absence of regulations to support policy implementation in the province. In the future, there are some needs for (1) coordination between central and regional governments in each activity plan; (2) regulation to support the use of donor funds for implementation of the policy at regional levels; (3) social mapping and economic mapping of KHG mapping; (4) evaluation on moratorium on permits and licenses for peatlands; and (5) improvement on law enforcement.  Kebijakan restorasi gambut diluncurkan pemerintah untuk mengurangi dampak negatif kebakaran hutan dan lahan di lahan gambut. Provinsi Riau dan Sumatera Selatan adalah dua provinsi yang menjadi prioritas lokasi pelaksanaan kebijakan restorasi gambut di tahun 2016. Permasalahannya adalah bagaimana kesiapan kedua provinsi tersebut dalam pelaksanaan kebijakan tersebut? Melalui penelitian kualitatif yang dilakukan pada tahun 2016, hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemerintah daerah Provinsi Sumatera Selatan lebih siap melaksanakan kebijakan restorasi gambut, terlihat dari program yang dilaksanakan, sumber daya yang disiapkan, dan komitmen kepala daerah dalam pelaksanaan kebijakan. Namun pelaksanaan kebijakan terkendala oleh tidak adanya regulasi untuk mendukung pelaksanaan kebijakan di daerah. Untuk itu, ke depan perlu ada: (1) koordinasi antara pemerintah pusat dengan daerah dalam setiap rencana kegiatan; (2) regulasi yang mendukung pemanfaatan dana donor untuk pelaksanaan restorasi gambut di daerah; (3) pemetaan sosial dan pemetaan ekonomi dalam pemetaan KHG; (4) evaluasi moratorium izin di lahan gambut; dan (5) peningkatan penegakan hukum.

The socio-cultural conditions of today's society are increasingly worrisome, whether viewed from the relationships between individuals or groups that are not harmonious, also the tendency of people who use violence as a mechanism to solve the problems they faced. Such concerns need to be resolved immediately, and the Mental Revolution as an idea gains its momentum. The approach developed in this analysis is the concepts of practice and action implementation, by examining the role of Javanese culture. The selection of Javanese Culture as the basis for the development of Mental Revolution value is inseparable from the culture or ethnic Javanese as the largest ethnic group in Indonesia which reaches 40 percent of the population. Dominant culture is a substantive model that reflects the fact that there is a rule of action in social life that is mutually agreed upon in emerging social interactions. Most Javanese everywhere, tend to maintain their Javanese ethnicity in their daily lives.Kondisi sosial budaya masyarakat dewasa ini makin mengkhawatirkan, baik dilihat dari relasi antar individu ataupun kelompok yang tidak harmonis, juga kecenderungan masyarakat yang menggunakan kekerasan sebagai mekanisme penyelesaian masalah yang dihadapinya. Kekhawatiran tersebut perlu segera diselesaikan, dan revolusi mental sebagai sebuah gagasan mendapatkan momentumnya. Pendekatan yang dibangun dalam analisis ini adalah konsep-konsep praktik dan pelaksanaan tindakan, dengan mengkaji peran kebudayan Jawa. Pemilihan Budaya Jawa sebgai dasar bagi pengembangan nilai Revolusi Mental, tidak terlepas dari budaya atau etnik Jawa merupakan etnik terbesar di Indonesia yang mencapai 40 persen dari populasi. Kebudayaan dominan adalah sebuah model substantif yang merefleksikan kenyataan yang memperlihatkan adanya aturan main dalam kehidupan sosial yang disetujui bersama dalam interaksi sosial yang muncul.

Authors:   , Oliveira Luciana Aparecida de
Published: January 2024

Esta pesquisa teve como objeto de estudo a Fazenda Limeira, uma propriedade rural, datada de 1712, tombada pelo município de Guaraciaba em 2017, devido à sua importância histórica e à sua arquitetura colonial. Apesar de ser um patrimônio tombado, ela se apresenta em avançado estado de degradação. Baseado no exposto, objetivou-se conhecer o processo de patrimonialização e de preservação por trás dos interesses que nortearam a construção do discurso de que a fazenda deveria ser tombada e preservada por se tratar de um patrimônio. Buscou-se, então, entender o porquê de essa fazenda estar sofrendo uma deterioração, visto que ela é considerada um patrimônio cultural. Nessa perspectiva, levantou-se como se deu o seu processo de tombamento, e, especificamente, objetivou-se: conhecer a sua história e o seu papel na história da cidade; identificar os agentes envolvidos no processo de patrimonialização de bens na cidade de Guaraciaba (MG) e no processo de patrimonialização da citada fazenda; fazer um levantamento do seu pedido de registro nos órgãos competentes; descobrir como se deu o processo de construção do discurso patrimonial dessa fazenda, para verificar se houve ou não conflitos entre os envolvidos; e, por fim, averiguar se há, nos órgãos públicos, a existência de normas específicas para gerir e preservar os patrimônios históricos da cidade, com vistas a preservá-los. Para a realização deste trabalho, utilizou-se de pesquisa bibliográfica, de pesquisa documental e de aplicação de entrevistas semiestruturadas. A pesquisa bibliográfica, que permitiu um aprofundamento nos temas, foi feita concomitantemente à pesquisa documental e realizadas nos arquivos da Secretaria Municipal de Cultura, Esporte e Lazer e Turismo; registros de batizados e de casamentos nos livros paroquiais, tanto nos impressos quanto nos digitalizados (familysearch.org); e nos arquivos de cartórios das cidades de Guaraciaba, Ponte Nova e Porto Firme, ambas em Minas Gerais; no Arquivo Público Mineiro, como o livro de “terras públicas”; e, por fim, no arquivo do Fórum da cidade de Piranga (MG). A pesquisa documental possibilitou a identificação dos antigos proprietários da Fazenda Limeira e a constatação de sua natureza agrícola, além de permitir, parcialmente, o entendimento de como se deu o seu processo de tombamento. Encontrou-se que o tombamento foi unilateral, conduzido por agentes de poder, com um discurso de que a fazenda é a mais antiga da cidade; logo, faz parte da história de formação do município. Além disso, foi possível constatar seu estado precário de conservação e conhecer suas características construtivas. Palavras-chave: Patrimônio; Memória; Tombamento; Fazenda.
