Grenzen der Sentimentaliät. Zur Genese der Vorher-Nachher-Bilder
Authors: Ullrich Wolfgang
Published: November 2018

Seit Jahrzenten immer dasselbe: Man findet kaum eine Zeitschrift, die nicht ein Vorher-Nachher-Bild enthält. Meist ist es eine Anzeige für eine Anifaltencreme, Muskelpräparate, ein Haartönungs- oder Haarwuchsmittel oder eine neue Diät. Jedesmal scheint der Lauf der Zeit umgedreht und sogar die uralte Utopie übertroffen, wonach Jugend, Schlnheit und Gesundheit konserviert werden konnen. Doch da die Umekehrung des Gewohnten oft zu phantastisch anmutet, gesteht zumindest der skeptischere Betracher eher dem Vorher-Bild Warhheit zu- und konzentriert sich auf den jeweiligen Makel. Aus der Vidion rinrt brsseren Welt wird so die unliebsame Erinnerung an die negativen Seiten der Körperlichkeit. Vanitas ist augenfällig gerade da präsent, wo sie am lautesten dementiert wird. Die explizite Zurschaustellung von Zeit bringt den Betrachter derart fast zwangsläufig zum Reflektieren, insofern sind Vorher-Nachher-Bilder immer auch schon Denkbilder.
Sein und Selbstkritik. Martin Heideggers Band «Zu eigenen Veröffentlichungen»
Authors: Mehring Reinhard
Published: November 2018

Ernst Jünger gratulierte Hedegger 1974 zum 85. Geburstag mit herzlichen Wünschen "für das opus magnum, das nun beginnt". Er meinte damit die Gesamtausgabem die Heidegger zwar lange geplant, jenseits sehr grober Einteilung aber nicht detailiert festgelegt hatte. Eine Diskussion um dieses Opus, dessen Abschluss sich heute nähert, hat noch kaum begonnen. So verbiss sich die Kontroverse um die sogenannten Schwartzen Hefte in einzelne Forlumierungen, ohne die Funktionen der Bände im Gefüge der Gestamausgabe näher zu bedenken. Dabei ist die politische Debatte um den Geltungsanspruch der Texte nur im Gestamrahmen zu führen.
Schreibmaschine aus Ugarit. Über das Verhältnis von Keilschrift und Alphabet
Authors: Krebernik Manfred
Published: November 2018

I. Kurz vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg konnte man Keilschrift auf der Schreibmaschine schreiben. Nicht nur das Flugzeug und das Maschinengewehr war erfunden worden, auch der Assyriologe im Lehnstuhl war jetzt in der Lage, seine Transkriptionen zu tippen, statt sie umständlich von Hand aufs Papier zu bringen. Die Firma Hammond in New York hat das Gerät seit 1909 zum Verkauf angeboten.

Weltliteratur unterm Sternenhimmel. Gilgamesch um 1900
Authors: Weichenhan Michael
Published: November 2018

"er gebot/Seine ganze Wissenschaft mit keilen/ Dass sie dauerte in Stein zu schreiben" Das Motto entstammt der 1920 publizierten Übersetztung der Gilgamesch-Dichtung des Philosophen Rudolf Pannwitz (1881-1969). Sie unterschied sich von den um philologische Genauigkeit bemühten Übersetzungen, die seit der ersten Edition der Fragmente durch Paul Haupt im Jahr 1884 erschienen waren und den schlechten Erhaltungszustand des Textes sichtbar machten. Dessen erste Zeugen hatten englische Archäologen Anfang der 1870er Jahre aus Tausenden von Täfelchen der "Bibliothek" des assyrischen Königs Assurbanipal in Ninive geborgen.

"Jehovah! Dir künd' ich auf ewig Hohn - Ich bin der König von Babylon! In diesen Versen aus seinem berühmten Gedicht Belsatzer skizzierte Heinrich Heine in wenigen Worten das Bild, das sich das Abendland von der hohen Kultur des Alten Oients bewahrt hatte. Der biblischen Überlieferung zufolge war sie frech und ausschweifend, gottlos und überheblich gewesen, vor allem aber durch und durch blind für wahre Erkenntnis. Bezeichnenderweise vermochte in der im Danielbuch überlieferten Erzählung vom Untergang des Babylonischen Reiches kein einziger der Berater, Wahrsager und Zeichendeuter, die König Belsazar um sich scharte hatte, "die Flammenschrift an der Wand" zu deuten, die vom unabwendbaren, gottgewollten nahen Ende kündet

Hybrid Engagement: Discourses and Scenarios of Entrepreneurial Journalism
Authors: Ruotsalainen Juho , Villi Mikko
Published: November 2018

Although the challenge posed by social media and the participatory turn concerns culture and values at the very heart of journalism, journalists have been reluctant to adopt participatory values and practices. To encourage audience participation and to offer journalism that is both trustworthy and engaging, journalists of the future may embrace a hybrid practice of journalistic objectivity and audience-centred dialogue. As innovative and experimental actors, entrepreneurial journalism outlets can perform as forerunners of such a culture. By analysing discourses in the “About Us” pages of 41 entrepreneurial journalism outlets, the article examines the emerging journalistic ethos of entrepreneurial journalism and its participatory tendencies. The results show a conception of journalism that is a hybrid of the journalistic ideals of dialogue and objectivity. This kind of hybrid journalism and adjacent “hybrid engagement” can offer an answer to the dual challenge of how to make journalism more participation-friendly while at the same time hold on to the defining values and criteria of journalism. Drawing from futures research, the article concludes by sketching four scenarios of how entrepreneurial journalism and participatory hybrid engagement may develop in the future.
From Counter-Power to Counter-Pepe: The Vagaries of Participatory Epistemology in a Digital Age
Authors: Anderson C. W. , Revers Matthias
Published: November 2018

This article reconstructs the evolution of societal and journalistic meta-discourse about the participation of ordinary citizens in the news production process. We do so through a genealogy of what we call “participatory epistemology”, defined here as a form of journalistic knowledge in which professional expertise is modified through public interaction. It is our argument that the notion of “citizen participation in news process” has not simply functioned as a normative concept but has rather carried with it a particular understanding of what journalists could reasonably know, and how their knowledge could be enhanced by engaging with the public in order to produce journalistic work. By examining four key moments in the evolution of participatory epistemology, as well as the discursive webs that have surrounded these moments, we aim to demonstrate some of the factors which led a cherished and utopian concept to become a dark and dystopian one. In this, we supplement the work of Quandt (2018) and add some historical flesh to the conceptual arguments of his article on “dark participation”.

O presente artigo tem como proposta analisar as imagens monetárias de dois denários cunhados em Roma no ano de 137 AEC, com o objetivo de refletir sobre a relação dessas cunhagens com o debate que ocupou grande parte da elite romana naquele ano, a respeito da ratificação ou não do tratado feito pelo general Caio Hostílio Mancino com a cidade de Numância. As peças foram emitidas pelos monetários Tibério Vetúrio e Sexto Pompeu. Representações de divindades e referências aos ancestrais e ao passado da cidade de Roma participam da elaboração do discurso numismático, revelando posições antagônicas acerca do debate em curso.
Lucrecia y Virginia como prototipos virtuosos de feminidad en la Antigua Roma: estereotipos para una educación diferenciada
Authors: Conesa Navarro Pedro David
Published: November 2018

En este trabajo pretendemos mostrar la importancia que Lucrecia y Virginia tuvieron para la formación de los roles femeninos en la Antigua Roma. Las muertes de estas mujeres virtuosas fueron vistas como prototipos femeninos, pues el honor familiar estaba por encima de los intereses particulares. No sería hasta la irrupción del cristianismo cuando sus muertes fueron criticadas. Además de repasar dichos relatos, también nos interesaremos por la educación predeterminada que tenían las mujeres, fieles al ámbito doméstico como cuidadoras del hogar, madres y fieles esposas.

Published: November 2018

Güvenlik sorunu ve terörizm çok eski olgulardır. Geniş kitleler üzerinde endişe ve korku yaratarak dikkat çekmek isteyen terörizme karşı insanlar tedbir almaya başlamıştır. Öncelikle terör faaliyetlerine karşı askerî tedbirler alınmış, terörizmin bertaraf edilmesi için devletlerin ortak çabaları oluşmuş ve toplumların en az zarar görmesine çalışılmıştır. Zaman içerisinde devletlerin terör unsurlarını amaçları doğrultunda kullandığı da görülmüştür. Soğuk Savaş esnasında kontrol altında olan bu unsurlar bu dönemin ardından kontrolden çıkmaya, daha güçlü ve daha kontrolsüz bir şekilde görünmeye başlamıştır. Terör grupları geleneksel yöntemlerin dışında teknolojiden ve sosyal medyadan daha fazla faydalanarak eylemlerini daha görünür hale getirmiştir. Gelişen teknoloji ve sosyal medya, güvenlik yapılanması içerisindeki unsurlarca da etkin olarak kullanılmaya başlamıştır. Teröre karşı savaşta, teknolojinin etkin kullanılması, hak ve özgürlüklerin sınırlandırılmamasının etkili olacağı değerlendirilmektedir. Bu makalede, uluslararası terörün değişen yüzü ve terörün uluslararasılaşması konusu incelenecektir. Terör örgütlerinin sosyal medyayı kullanmasının terör faaliyetlerinin etkisini artırdığı değerlendirilecektir.

Coberturas a los ingresos petroleros de la Nación. Caso Colombia, 2014-2016
Authors: Salcedo Saldaña Carmen
Published: November 2018

Algunos de los principales retos que ha enfrentado la economía colombiana, y en general los países emergentes, son el sobreendeudamiento público y la prociclicidad de la política fiscal. Desde comienzos del 2000 se pudo observar un esfuerzo importante del Gobierno colombiano por enfrentar estos problemas, sin embargo, los avances alcanzados hasta hace algunos años se han venido revirtiendo al tiempo que la dinámica de la economía se ha moderado y el déficit externo alcanzó máximos históricos. Desde que inició la Regla Fiscal en 2012, el déficit fiscal observado se ha ubicado en promedio 0,7 puntos porcentuales por encima del déficit estructural, y la deuda bruta del Gobierno nacional central ascendió a niveles máximos históricos. De acuerdo con los cálculos del Gobierno, el choque fiscal entre de 2013 y 2016 fue de 3,9 % del pib, y estuvo asociado en un 82 % a un menor ingreso fiscal por la caída en los precios del petróleo. Bajo este escenario, el Gobierno implementó reformas tributarias y recortó el gasto de inversión de manera importante desde 2013, lo que influenció negativamente la dinámica económica a través de una política procíclica. Teniendo en cuenta el deterioro de las cuentas fiscales, asociado a la caída en los precios del petróleo observada entre 2014 y 2017, en este artículo se evalúa una aproximación teórica al desempeño del balance fiscal incorporando un mecanismo de cobertura con opciones put europeas contra las fluctuaciones de los precios internacionales del petróleo. Se encontró que las coberturas mejoraron el balance del Gobierno nacional central durante los periodos evaluados. Se concluye que el ritmo de descenso de la deuda habría sido más acelerado al observado y que se habría podido evitar la implementación de los ajustes tributarios y los recortes de gastos observados durante los últimos años.

SolarView: Georgia Solar Adoption in Context
Authors: Tidwell Jacqueline Hettel , Tidwell Abraham , Nelson Steffan , Hill Marcus
Published: November 2018

Despite a global push in the development and implementation of widespread alternative energy use, significant disparities exist across given nation-states. These disparities, frequently referred to as the local-national gap, reflect both technical and economic factors, as well as the social, political, and ecological gaps between how communities see energy development and national/global policy goals. This dataset is an attempt to bridge the local-national gap regarding solar PV adoption in the state of Georgia (U.S.A.). This dataset is an aggregation of variables from seven different publicly-available sources that was designed to help researchers interested in the context underlying solar adoption on the local scale of governance (e.g. the county level). The SolarView database includes information necessary for informing policymaking activities such as solar installation information, a historical county zip code directory, county-level census data, housing value indexes, renewable energy incentive totals, PV rooftop suitability percentages, and utility rates. As this is a database from multiple sources, incomplete data entries are noted.

Oil/Water Pipe-Flow Dispersions: From Traditional Flow Loops to Real Industrial-Transport Conditions
Authors: Shmueli Andrea , Unander Tor Erling , Schümann Heiner
Published: November 2018

In this paper we present a study on oil/water pipe-flow dispersions. There are two main objectives of this work: The first objective is to gain more knowledge on the behavior of oil/water dispersions in pipe flow; the second objective is to validate a new methodology to characterize dispersion properties at realistic industrial conditions. The characteristics of oil/water flows such as the development of the phase-fraction profiles, droplet-chord lengths, and pressure gradient were studied in a 0.069-m-diameter and 50-m-length horizontal pipe at the Multiphase Flow Laboratory of SINTEF in Norway. The fluid system consisted of a model oil (Exxsol® D80) with and without surfactants, and tap water. A comparison of the experiments with and without a mixing valve was performed. The experiments were conducted at different superficial liquid velocities (Usl) and five different water-cut (WC) values (with WC defined as the ratio of the water superficial velocity to the liquid superficial velocity).

In addition, experiments on a wheel-shaped flow loop were conducted at selected conditions. The wheel mimics realistic pipe-flow conditions for the oil/water dispersions. This methodology allows us to identify flow-developing time scales and long-term behavior, which cannot be studied in a shorter test section. Furthermore, it is possible to have an indication of the viscosity increment when dispersions form.

The results from the pipe-flow experiments show that the effective viscosity of the mixed flow increases by the dispersion formation promoted by the valve. As a result, the pressure gradient in the downstream pipe increases dramatically compared with the same conditions without premixing. For the studied cases, the surfactant concentration did not have any significant effect on the pressure drop in the pipe. However, differences in the phase-fraction profiles were observed, especially with respect to flow development along the pipe. A possible explanation is that the effective viscosity of the created dispersion is not high enough to produce an increase in the pressure drop. Flow development along the pipeline (oil/water separation) is observed only for selected cases without surfactant. For the rest of the experiments, especially with surfactant, the test section was not long enough to observe flow development. With the wheel, it is simple and fast to study both the formation and the stability of dispersions with real fluids at realistic conditions. There are indications that the energy-dissipation rate could be used as a scaling parameter between pipe-flow experiments and the wheel experiments. Wheel experiments can be used cost-efficiently to investigate dispersion characteristics and long-term flow development, which cannot be observed in traditional pipe-flow loops because of their restrictions.
The Feasibility for Potassium-Based Phosphate Brines To Serve as High-Density Solid-Free Well-Completion Fluids in High-Temperature/High-Pressure Formations
Authors: Jia Hu , Hu Yao–Xi , Zhao Shan–Jie , Zhao Jin–Zhou
Published: November 2018

Many oil and gas resources in deep–sea environments worldwide are often located in high–temperature/high–pressure (HT/HP) and low–permeability reservoirs. The reservoir–pressure coefficient usually exceeds 1.6, with formation temperature greater than 180°C. Challenges are faced for well drilling and completion in these HT/HP reservoirs. A solid–free well–completion fluid with safety density greater than 1.8 g/cm3 and excellent thermal endurance is strongly needed in the industry. Because of high cost and/or corrosion and toxicity problems, the application of available solid–free well–completion fluids such as cesium formate brines, bromine brines, and zinc brines is limited in some cases. In this paper, novel potassium–based phosphate well–completion fluids were developed. Results show that the fluid can reach the maximum density of 1.815 g/cm3 at room temperature, which makes a breakthrough on the density limit of normal potassium–based phosphate brine. The corrosion rate of N80 steel after the interaction with the target phosphate brine at a high temperature of 180°C is approximately 0.1853 mm/a, and the regained–permeability recovery of the treated sand core can reach up to 86.51%. Scanning–electron–microscope (SEM) pictures also support the corrosion–evaluation results. The phosphate brine shows favorable compatibility with the formation water. The biological toxicity–determination result reveals that it is only slightly toxic and is environmentally acceptable. In addition, phosphate brine is highly effective in inhibiting the performance of clay minerals. The cost of phosphate brine is approximately 44 to 66% less than that of conventional cesium formate, bromine brine, and zinc brine. This study suggests that the phosphate brine can serve as an alternative high–density solid–free well–completion fluid during well drilling and completion in HT/HP reservoirs.
Improving Salt Tolerance in Safflower Plants through Exogenous Application of Penconazole
Authors: Shaki Fatemeh , Maboud Hasan Ebrahimzadeh , Niknam Vahid
Published: November 2018

Core Ideas

Penconazole decreases the negative effects of salinity in safflower.

Penconazole helps safflower to cope with salinity by the regulation of compatible solutes.

Penconazole increases the expression of key genes responsible in defense system.

Penconazole increases the activity of enzymatic and non‐enzymatic antioxidants.

It has been shown that penconazole (PEN) acts as an endogenous signal molecule responsible for inducing stress tolerance in plants. The effect of PEN (15 mg L−1) and sodium chloride (0, 100, and 200 mM NaCl) on some biochemical and molecular responses of safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) were studied. Results revealed that K+ and Ca2+ contents, and some growth parameters decreased under salinity however, Na+ content, compatible solutes, H2O2 and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, phenolic compounds, phenylalanine ammonia‐lyase (PAL) gene expression, and antioxidant enzyme activities increased. The exogenous PEN had a positive effect on K+ and Ca2+ contents, growth parameters, compatible solutes, antioxidant enzyme activities, and H2O2 content, but decreased Na+ and MDA contents. In addition, quantitative real‐time (qRT)‐polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis showed that exogenous PEN induced expression of PAL gene in both untreated and salt‐treated plants. Our data indicate that PEN helps safflower plants to better cope with salt stress. The results provide new insights to mechanisms that help regulate salinity resistance in safflower. Penconazole may be considered as a foliar application to ameliorate salinity effects, due to its low price and availability.
Nitrogen and Phosphorus Phytoextraction by Cattail (Typha spp.) during Wetland‐based Phytoremediation of an End‐of‐Life Municipal Lagoon
Authors: Jeke Nicholson N. , Zvomuya Francis , Cicek Nazim , Ross Lisette , Badiou Pascal
Published: November 2018

Spreading biosolids on farmland can be an effective and beneficial option for managing end‐of‐life municipal lagoons. Where the spreading of biosolids on farmland is restricted or unavailable, in situ phytoremediation could be a sustainable alternative. This study examined nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) phytoextraction by cattail (Typha spp.) from biosolids in a wetland constructed within a lagoon cell previously used for primary treatment of municipal wastewater. The effect of harvesting season as well as harvest frequency on N and P removal were evaluated. Forty‐eight 4‐m2 plots within the constructed wetland were used to determine the effect of cattail harvest frequency on plant N and P phytoextraction. Harvesting twice per season resulted in a 50 to 60% decrease in phytoextraction of N and P relative to a single harvest per season, which produced biomass yields of 0.58 to 0.6 kg m−2 per year and accumulated 36.7 g N m−2 and 5.6 g P m−2 over the 4‐yr period. Compared with August, harvesting cattails in November or April reduced N and P phytoextraction by 63 to 85%. These results demonstrate that phytoextraction of nutrients is more effective with a single harvest compared with two harvests per season. Additionally, we found that while harvesting in November and April is appealing logistically (since the wetland is frozen and provides easier access to harvest equipment), nutrient removal rates are significantly reduced.

Core Ideas

Constructed wetlands can remove N and P from end‐of‐life municipal lagoons.

Nutrient phytoextraction by cattail is more effective with one than two harvests per season.

Phytoextraction is optimized when cattail is harvested in August.
Transport of Potential Manure Hormone and Pharmaceutical Contaminants through Intact Soil Columns
Authors: Hill Danika N. , Popova Inna E. , Hammel John E. , Morra Matthew J.
Published: November 2018

Although adding manure to agricultural soils is a commonly practiced disposal method and a means to enhance soil productivity, potential environmental contamination by any associated chemicals of emerging concern (CECs) such as hormones and pharmaceuticals is not well understood. Our objective was to provide field‐relevant predictions of soil transport and attenuation of 19 potential manure CECs using undisturbed soil columns irrigated under unsaturated conditions. The CEC concentrations in leached water were monitored for 13 wk using high performance liquid chromatography–time of flight–mass spectrometry (HPLC‐TOF‐MS), after which time soil in the cores was removed and sampled for extractable CECs. Compounds quantified in column leachate included all four of the added sulfonamide antibiotics and the nonsteroidal, anti‐inflammatory drug flunixin. Only trace amounts of several of the seven hormones, five remaining antibiotics, and two antimicrobials leached from the columns from exogenous soil additions. Soil residues of all 19 compounds were detected, with highest extractable amounts for 17α‐hydroxyprogesterone > triclosan (antimicrobial) > flunixin > oxytetracycline. Those CECs with the highest recoveries as calculated by summing leached and extractable amounts were flunixin (14.5%), 17α‐hydroxyprogesterone (5.3%), triclosan (4.6%), and sulfadimethoxine (4.8%). Manure management to prevent CEC contamination should consider the potential environmental problems caused by negatively charged compounds with the greatest mobility (flunixin and sulfadimethoxine) and those that have long residence times in soil (triclosan, 17α‐hydroxyprogesterone, flunixin, and oxytetracycline). Flunixin is particularly important given its mobility and long residence time in soil.

Core Ideas

Four sulfonamide antibiotics and the drug flunixin leached through soil columns.

Trace amounts of nonsulfonamide antibiotics were detected in column leachate.

Soil extracts contained 17α‐hydroxyprogesterone > triclosan > flunixin > oxytetracycline.

The highest recoveries were observed for flunixin and 17α‐hydroxyprogesterone.
Projective phase measurements in one-dimensional Bose gases
Authors: van Nieuwkerk Yuri Daniel , Schmiedmayer Jörg , Essler Fabian
Published: November 2018

We consider time-of-flight measurements in split one-dimensional Bose
gases. It is well known that the low-energy sector of such systems can
be described in terms of two compact phase fields
\hat{\phi}_{a,s}(x)ϕ̂a,s(x).
Building on existing results in the literature we discuss how a single
projective measurement of the particle density after trap release is in
a certain limit related to the eigenvalues of the vertex operator
e^{i\hat{\phi}_a(x)}eiϕ̂a(x).
We emphasize the theoretical assumptions underlying the analysis of
“single-shot” interference patterns and show that such measurements give
direct access to multi-point correlation functions of
e^{i\hat{\phi}_a(x)}eiϕ̂a(x)
in a substantial parameter regime. For experimentally relevant
situations, we derive an expression for the measured particle density
after trap release in terms of convolutions of the eigenvalues of vertex
operators involving both sectors of the two-component Luttinger liquid
that describes the low-energy regime of the split condensate. This opens
the door to accessing properties of the symmetric sector via an
appropriate analysis of existing experimental data.

Formulation and Characterization of a Self-Emulsifying Drug Delivery System (SEDDS) of Curcumin for the Topical Application in Cutaneous and Mucocutaneous Leishmaniasis
Authors: Khan Momin , Nadhman Akhtar , Sehgal Sheikh Arslan , Siraj Sami , Yasinzai Muhammad Masoom
Published: November 2018

Background:

Leishmaniasis, which is classified by the World Health Organization (WHO) as
one of the Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs) faces several challenges in terms of successful chemotherapy
and novel drug developments.

Objective:

The aim of the present study was to develop a Self-Emulsifying Drug Delivery System
(SEDDS) for the hydrophobic polyphenol pigment curcumin to enable it for its potential use in cutaneous
and mucocutaneous leishmaniasis.

Methods:

Two Curcumin-loaded formulations SNEDD-A and B, were developed. Both were characterized
by the droplet size, PDI and zeta potential and evaluated for the cytotoxicity on Caco-2 cell lines
and through hemolysis test on red blood cells. The spreading potential of the formulations was checked
over buccal mucosa and damaged skin model. Antileishmanial activities were performed against promastigote,
axenic amastigote and macrophage harbored amastigotes of Leishmania tropica parasite.

Results:

SNEDDS-A and B had minor differences in physical characteristics. In the toxicological assay,
the viability of the Caco-2 cells was 87.5 % for SNEDDS-A and 88.9% for SNEDDS-B while both
caused 1-2% hemolysis. Both had remarkable spreading potential, covering 8cm2 of buccal mucosa and
damaged the skin for less than 45 minutes. The Antileishmanial activities of the SNEDDS-A in terms of
IC50 were 0.13 µg/ml and 0.25 µg/ml against promastigote and amastigote, respectively while IC50 values
of SNEDDS-B were 0.18 µg/ml and 0.27 µg/ml against promastigote and amastigote, respectively.
Both the formulations killed 100% of the macrophage harbored Leishmania tropica parasites at a concentration
of 4.4 µg/ml.

Conclusion:

Our results demonstrate that both the SEDDS formulations of curcumin have the potential
to provide a promising tool for curcumin for its use through topical routes in the treatment of cutaneous
and mucocutaneous leishmaniasis.

Background:

Suicide is a global public health problem, ranking among the top 20 leading causes of mortality.

Objective:

The aim of the present study is two-fold. Firstly, it describes the temporal trends of suicide in adolescents from 1997 to 2016 in Ecuador, allowing us to identify critical periods. Secondly, it analyzes the spatiotemporal clusters of high mortality rates and the spatial distribution due to suicide in the country, from 2011 to 2016.

Methods:

This is an ecological study; we included all death certificates of suicide among adolescents in the 10 - 19 age groups both sex, from the National Institute of Statistics and Census (INEC) database in Ecuador from 1997 to 2016. In order to assess the trend of suicide rates, we obtained Annual Percentage Changes (APCs) and average Annual Percent Changes (AAPCs) through Joinpoint regression analysis. Space-time scan statistics were used to identify high-risk clusters, and the spatial autocorrelation was evaluated through global Moran index.

Results:

Suicides at a national level increased from 165 deaths in 1997 to 286 deaths in 2016; rates increased from 12.7 to 23.3 per 100,000 population along with a significant increase of the trend at the national level (AAPC=3.7%; 95% CI: 2.1 to 5.2). We identified two significant spatial clusters for a high occurrence of suicide: the primary most likely cluster included 83 cantons (Risk Relative=2.28) while the second most likely cluster included 20 cantons (Risk Relative=1.74). The Global Moran I index for the study period showed a positive spatial autocorrelation (0.27; p = 0.001).

Conclusion:

Suicide rates in adolescents significantly increased over the 20-year study period; the spatial analysis indicates the presence of high occurrence clusters in the Amazon and Southern Highlands regions of the country. This growing phenomenon may be a reflection of the lack of policies and strategies focused on the adolescent’s mental health at a national level, added to factors such as family dysfunction, school failure, vulnerable ethnic groups, and immigration patterns.

Repetição e invenção: o cotidiano do trabalho em saúde, suas tensões, ambiguidades e contradições
Authors: Yasui Silvio , Pena Ricardo Sparapan
Published: November 2018

O presente artigo tem por objetivo apresentar reflexões sobre o cotidiano como cenário onde acontecem as práticas do trabalho em saúde, com suas tensões, ambiguidades e contradições. A partir da referencia a duas obras culturais, pretende-se estabelecer um diálogo entre alguns conceitos e as práticas na mobilidade dos territórios que os autores habitam e experimentam: apoio institucional, Educação Permanente em Saúde, da ‘ponta’ dos serviços de saúde mental, da gestão, da universidade. Busca-se construir e defender o cotidiano como plano que comporta a imanência do paradoxo da repetição e da invenção. Ao final, problematizam-se aspectos atuais da macro e da micropolítica que têm sinalizado para um preocupante cenário de fortes conotações fortemente conservadoras.
Ela tem peito, sou des-peitada, muito prazer: sou mastectomizada!

A mastectomia traz a mutilação física; a quimioterapia e radioterapia, o abatimento pela perda dos cabelos e pelos. No grupo de mulheres mastectomizadas que colaboraram com a nossa pesquisa, separações, perdas, frustrações e mudanças foram instauradas, mas, ao mesmo tempo, foram amparadas e enfrentadas com a ajuda do Grupo de Apoio às Mulheres Mastectomizadas da Amazônia – GAMMA. Compreender a vivência existencial de mulheres mastectomizadas participantes do GAMMA inspirou esta pesquisa de cunho qualitativo-fenomenológico. Colaboraram com a pesquisa dez mulheres mastectomizadas entre um ano e quatro anos e seis meses e que frequentam o GAMMA, em Manaus. Mediante entrevistas gravadas em áudio e partindo da descrição de vivências relativas a diagnóstico, cirurgia e GAMMA foram apreendidas Unidades de Significados e Categorias de Análise que ajudaram a compreender a existencialidade dessas mulheres. O estudo revelou que esta experiência tem grande impacto e gera mudanças na vida familiar, pessoal e social. A fé, a reflexão, a aprendizagem, o apoio familiar e do grupo surgem como recursos de enfrentamento. “Ser-no-mundo-com-câncer-de-mama” é uma experiência dolorosa, impactante, plena de mudanças radicais, mas com aprendizado, cura e superação.

Published: November 2018

O presente artigo se propõe a discutir sobre o processo de construção identitária dos catadores de materiais recicláveis, conhecendo quem são esses sujeitos, suas relações sociais e profissionais. A pesquisa teve uma perspectiva qualitativa utilizando entrevistas semi-estruturadas aplicadas em 08 (oito) catadores membros da Associação Engenho do Lixo, localizada na cidade de Juazeiro do Norte-CE. Os dados foram analisados a partir da Análise de Conteúdo. O trabalho com a catação revelou-se como a única forma de sobrevivência encontrada pelos catadores que em meio à informalidade e ao desemprego viram-se na necessidade de exercer tal atividade. Conclui-se que a identidade do catador ainda é estigmatizada, todavia, percebe-se que aos poucos ela tem se modificado ao adquirir características de relevância social, com destaque para a importância ambiental e econômica da atividade.
Entre participação e dinâmicas de controle: a construção cultural da juventude na contemporaneidade.
Authors: Soares Alexandre Bárbara
Published: November 2018

Este artigo procura discutir aspectos teóricos relativos à formulação de um “ser jovem” atualmente, buscando estabelecer pontos de inflexão sobre o debate geracional que articula a condição jovem a noções como de risco e periculosidade. Inicialmente, nos propomos a fazer uma discussão sobre alguns paradigmas que marcam a construção social da condição juvenil: por um lado a demanda por estratégias de controle que atuem junto a uma população tida como potencialmente perigosa e desviante e, por outro, as a expectativa pela ação destes sujeitos na continuidade social através de sua preparação para desempenho de ações e ocupação de espaços futuros, buscando formar habilidades que garantam a permanecia e fortalecimento das instituições. Na ultima década, assistimos a emergência de um conjunto de políticas públicas que visam ampliar os espaços de participação dos jovens na sociedade. Por isso buscamos discutir estas estratégias à luz da formulação contemporânea da condição juvenil.
Compreendendo a vivência de crianças com câncer através da fenomenologia
Authors: Amorim Gomes Kassia Karina , Bentes de Castro Ewerton Helder
Published: November 2018

O câncer é uma doença crônica que ocasiona transformações na vida de quem é acometido por essa patologia. Assim, essa pesquisa de natureza qualitativa objetivou compreender, à luz da fenomenologia, como crianças com câncer vivenciam a doença. Colaboraram com o estudo dez crianças acompanhadas pelo Grupo de Apoio à Criança com Câncer (GACC), na cidade de Manaus. Mediante entrevistas gravadas em áudio e partindo da descrição das vivências relativas ao diagnóstico, pôde-se apreender Unidades de Significado e Categorias de Análise que possibilitaram compreender a existencialidade dessas crianças. A pesquisa revelou que esta experiência desencadeia mudanças no contexto pessoal, social e familiar da criança. Entretanto, apesar de todo o sofrimento físico e emocional causado pelo adoecimento, as crianças creem em sua recuperação e conseguem ver um horizonte repleto de possibilidades para seu futuro. Portanto, ser-criança-com-câncer é uma experiência dolorosa, plena de transformações radicais, mas com possibilidades de aprendizado e superação.
Gestões de vida e morte: um olhar sobre o morrer no contemporâneo
Authors: Teixeira Anelise Lusser
Published: November 2018

O texto problematiza a maneira como a sociedade contemporânea lida com a morte. Visando desnaturalizar esta maneira, expomos outros modos como a morte foi experienciada em diferentes contextos históricos, chegando aos dias de hoje, onde é transferida para o hospital e passa a receber tratamento técnico. Através da compreensão do conceito de biopolítica, entendemos esse deslocamento como um mecanismo importante na gestão de vidas operada pelo Capitalismo, que tem como produto a hegemonização da ideia de morte natural e a montagem de um projeto de consumo para evitá-la. Propomos, então, uma problematização sobre a distância dessa ideia e a realidade dos morros cariocas, onde a população jovem e negra é vítima da violência, seja pelas mãos do tráfico, seja pelas da polícia.
