Distribution and Habitat Preferences of the Invasive Alien Rosa rugosa (Rosaceae) in Archipelago Sea National Park, SW Finland
Authors: Kunttu Panu , Kunttu Sanna-Mari
Published: July 2017

Rosa rugosaThunb. is an invasive alien plant which was introduced from East Asia to Europe in the 19thcentury. Over the decades it has spread along the Finnish coast, including the archipelagos of the Baltic Sea. The shrub grows particularly along sandy beaches, stony shores and seashore meadows. There it leads to serious changes in coastal ecosystems and replaces native plant species. This paper presents the distribution and habitat preferences ofR. rugosain and near Archipelago Sea National Park in SW Finland. We identified 205 stands in the study area, 58% of them in protected areas. Systematic inventories do not cover the whole study area, so it is likely that dozens of stands remain undiscovered. Stands of the species were concentrated on the outer islands, where the archipelago’s most characteristic flora and fauna occur. Data on the shore type and area of all stands were collected. The total area covered byR. rugosawas 7277 m2before control work started in 2008. The largest stand occurred on Örö Island, coveringca2500 m2before its eradication, and the median size of all stands was 6 m2. Five of the six largest stands were on sandy beach, but stony shore was the most common habitat type.
The integration of the molecular methods in the diagnosis algorithm for the poliovirus detection in the sewage water: comparing concentration and detection methods. A Pilot Study
Authors: Băicuş Anda
Published: July 2017

Introduction. Two cases of circulating vaccine-derived poliovirus type 1(cVDPV1), from southwestern Ukraine, bordering Romania, were confirmed in 2015 and the environmental enterovirus surveillance was enhanced in our country. The molecular detection of human enteroviruses as a screening test followed by isolation on cell culture lines or sequencing could be proposed as a new diagnosis algorithm.

Material and Methods. The sensitivity of two molecular methods for the detection of enterovirus strains in 10 mL of sewage water (15 samples) was studied with Film Array ME panel BioFire (Biomerieux, France) and Xpert EV assay (Cepheid, USA). These are standardized methods for the detection of microorganisms in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).

Results. Of the 15 samples, six enterovirus strains were detected using Film Array ME, four enterovirus strains were detected using Xpert EV assay, while only two nonpolio enterovirus strains were isolated on RD cell line, using the standard WHO algorithm. However, only one of the strains detected by the standard WHO algorithm was detected by one of the molecular methods.

Conclusions. The molecular methods for enterovirus detection are more sensitive than the virus isolation on cell culture lines, but in one case the virus isolated on RD cell line was not detected by the molecular methods. The results could be influenced by the small number of the samples investigated, by the volume and the concentration method used for samples tested, and by the limits of detection (LoD) of the enterovirus species in the samples, depending on the method used.
Utjecaj litoralizacije na demogeografski razvoj Dugog otoka
Authors: Čuka Anica
Published: July 2017

The paper analyzes basic demographic features of Dugi otok Island, particularly in the period after the Second World War, which has been characterized by intensive littoralization i.e. concentration of social and economic life on the coast. Strong industrialization on the mainland has had negative impact on demographic and economic development of the island. The number of inhabitants decreased significantly after 1948 due to intensive emigration and drastic decrease of birth rates. Continuous increase of the share of older islanders and the decrease of younger age groups of both sexes is obvious indicator of ageing, which is the basic feature of the age structure.Littoralization on the island has had negative impact on spatial development of insular settlements. Although the settlements were mostly situated on the hills by fertile dolomite zones or karst fields, during the transition from primary to secondary and tertiary economic activities, they spread toward the coast. So, small number of inhabitants that decided to stay and live on the island, mostly inhabit the coastal part, while older islanders continue living in old rock houses, situated in old nucleuses of the villages.

Suvremeni socio-geografski problemi malih hrvatskih otoka – primjer otoka Žirja
Authors: Faričić Josip , Magaš Damir
Published: July 2017

The processes of deagrarization and depopulation have been present on Croatian islands (particularly on smaller and remoter ones) for several decades and they have disrupted demographic and economic basis of the islands. Scarce and generally old population on the island has mostly abandoned traditional economic activities, as well as different forms of specific way of life, particularly Mediterranean insular culture that was being formed for thousands of years. These socio-geographic changes had also repercussions on transformation of insular landscape.Žirje Island in Šibenik archipelago is a good example of contemporary socio-geographic changes and transformation of the Croatian insular area in general. Negative socio-economic processes on Žirje Island are particularly stressed because its southern part was completely isolated for the purpose of building military infrastructure and stationing the troops of the ex-Yugoslav army. Contemporary initial, but extremely uncontrolled development of tourism has become a serious threat to insular landscape, so the local population has demanded that state and county administration should take immediate steps for protecting the southwestern part of the island (Stupica) and proclaim it protected landscape.
Novoplanirana ljetovališta na obali Languedoc-Roussillona (Francuska)
Authors: Sanguin André-Louis
Published: July 2017

The Languedoc-Roussillon's sea coast was virtually virgin and not planned at thebeginning of the sixties. Within a natural environment made from lidos and lagunas, aspontaneous tourism emerged from 1880 to 1960 in the shape of some small seaside antennasof cities located 15 to 20 km inside. A town and country planning public program (the famous"Racine Mission") implemented six new integrated seaside resorts from 1963 to 1982. Thispaper paints a broad picture of each of these resorts after a thirty years'existence and indicates the outlooks in the framework of the European Union.
Odnos dobne strukture stanovništva i rekreacijskog pejzaža: primjer Dubrave u Zagrebu
Authors: Crljenko Ivana
Published: July 2017

Osnovno polazište rada jest premisa da su demografska obilježja stanovništva koje svakodnevno izgrađuje i konzumira prostor i kulturni pejzaži povezani, odnosno da se demografska slika u većoj ili manjoj mjeri može iščitati u kulturnim pejzažima gradova. Od svih demografskih struktura, u hrvatskim se urbanim pejzažima ponegdje više, a ponegdje manje mogu iščitati dobna, obrazovna, vjerska, ekonomska i etnička/narodnosna struktura, dok su rasna i rodna struktura gotovo nezapažene. U ovom se radu analizira odnos dobne strukture stanovništva i rekreacijskog pejzaža zagrebačke istočne periferije – Dubrave. Najprije se statističkom analizom upućuje na prošlo i trenutačno stanje dobnog sastava te trend starenja Dubravčana. U nastavku se deskriptivnom i/ili statističkom analizom nekih elemenata rekreacijskog pejzaža u Dubravi, poput zelenih površina, dječjih i sportskih igrališta, javnih vrtova, sportskih centara, Grada mladih i vikendica, utvrđuje suvremeno stanje u pejzažu. S obzirom na dominantan proces ubrzanog starenja stanovništva Dubrave, uočen je nesrazmjer između potreba za rekreacijom ostarjeloga stanovništva i realnoga stanja u prostoru. Nedostatak rekreacijskih sadržaja očit je ne samo za stariju populaciju, nego i za mlađu, a razlozi tomu najčešće su povezani s nedostatkom financijskih sredstava i u nekim slučajevima višom razinom odlučivanja od one gradskih četvrti. Izdvojena su dva podtipa rekreacijskog pejzaža: sportsko-rekreacijski i vikendaški pejzaž.
Ekološki otisak cestovnog prometa na cresko-lošinjskom arhipelagu
Authors: Grofelnik Hrvoje
Published: July 2017

Cres-Lošinj Archipelago is the largest insular traffic unit in Northern Adriatic. The archipelago consists of two large islands, Cres and Lošinj, and 27 smaller islands located among Kvarner, Kvarnerić, Rijeka Bay and open sea. From the point of view of traffic, this area gravitates mostly toward Rijeka traffic node. Traffic development of the islands was determined in the second half of the 20th century with the development of ferry traffic and road traffic on the islands. Today, the Archipelago is characterized by prominent seasonal variations of road traffic intensity due to dominant role of tourism in space valorisation. This research included partial determination of Ecological Footprint of road traffic on the islands on the basis of CO2 emission and capacity of insular surfaces to absorb CO2 .The author also created a model for calculating road mileage on the islands and indirectly calculated CO2 emission. The results indicated significant seasonal variations of CO2  emission on the islands, which are closely related to tourist valorisation of space and the number of non-residential vehicles on the islands. The paper also provides the ratio between residential and non-residential vehicles on the island, which influence the emission in accordance with their energy efficiency. The research showed that the capacity of CO2  absorption on Cres-Lošinj Archipelago is approximately 40 times greater than CO2 emission from road traffic during one year.

Suvremeni demografski i razvojni izazovi općine Dubrovačko primorje, Hrvatska
Authors: Karlić Mujo Helena
Published: July 2017

The purpose of this paper is to define the basic issues and opportunities challenging the modern development of the Municipality of Dubrovačko Primorje, their causes and effects. The processes of depopulation affected this poorly developed rural region since 1960s, which had been influenced by various factors: development polarisation caused by intensive development of tourism, the poor traffic infrastructure in the highland-area of the Municipality and the unsolved water supply issue. In 1990s a series of events intensified negative demographic trends as follows: aggression on Croatia, occupation during which residential, economic and infrastructural buildings were destroyed and burnt, as well as an earthquake which happened after the return of the refugees. The long-lasting rural emigration from this region towards Dubrovnik caused not only an instantaneous decrease of population but also a contraction of the renewing basis and an accelerated decrease of natural growth in the Municipality of Dubrovačko Primorje. In that way the emigrational depopulation as a consequence of a specific socioeconomic development, became the cause of the current biological depopulation. The intensity of the depopulation processes has been established by an analysis of a total population dynamics and the changes in biological and economic population structure. The conclusion of the study indicates activities which have promising development in the Municipality of Dubrovačko Primorje and which might partly stop the negative demographic trends. Those are mainly traditional activities in this region which are not commercially used enough. They should prevent any further emigration and perhaps even attract those who immigrated, back to their place of birth

Published: July 2017

The area of Rijeka's water supply system belongs to karst which is featured with a significant underground water circulation, as well as with a high sensitivity to external influences such as water pollution. Abundant springs are the basis of water supply. The minimal spring abundance exceeds the water consumption for several times. The quality of water is good, supplying more than 200.000 residents of the Rijeka area, and since lately the northern part of Krk Island. The article studies the development of Rijeka's water supply system, with an emphasis on the water consumption and the level of water supply system's development in the last fifteen years. The data shows a high level of development of the water supply system. Lately there has been a decrease in water consumption in the researched area, particularly in economic sector due to many industries being shut down. Today approximately 2/3 of consumption accounts for households. In spite of redistribution of population within the researched area (the process of suburbanization) there was no significant decrease in water supply standard. Moreover, lately there have been considerable advances in reducing the losses in the water supply network.

Authors: Maradin Mladen
Published: July 2017

The study analyses the precipitation variability in Hvar and Crikvenica in the period from 1931 to 1990. These stations have a maritime type of the annual course of precipitation. The minimum value of the precipitation variability in Hvar is in autumn, in November, while the secondary minimum of the variability is in spring, in April. The primary maximum of variability is in summer, most often in July, while the secondary maximum is in March. In Crikvenica the minimum values of the precipitation variability in April and November are even, and the same is true for the maximum values of the variability in September and March. The value of the annual precipitation variability is higher in Crikvenica than in Hvar although Crikvenica has higher amount of precipitation. The location of the stations included in this research is relevant. In Crikvenica the variability is higher in autumn and winter. Monthly values of the mean relative variability coincide in the cold part of the year when the variability is only slightly higher in Crikvenica, while in the warm part of the year, with the exception of September, the variability in Hvar is significantly higher.
Disciplinar/Interdisciplinar: Para Pensar os Signos e os Gestos nos Modos de Pesquisar e Ensinar
Authors: Alves Luiz Roberto
Published: July 2017

Este ensaio trata de repensar o trabalho de quem pesquisa e educa na universidade em momento de grande importância do tema que conecta disciplinaridade a inter-disciplinaridade. Antes que se tomem decisões apressadas e negativas ao desenvolvimento da pesquisa e das ações didático-pedagógicas, vai-se ao centro nervoso do debate, que é a linguagem, para buscar alguma clareza de significação e indicar atitudes favoráveis à melhor relação entre aqueles valores que disciplinam e os que inter-disciplinam na formulação do trabalho científico. A reflexão histórica e linguística elucida as interrelações e busca desmitificar hipóteses, embora inteligentes; leva, pois, à superação da proposta de substituição de paradigmas, um círculo vicioso não-provável dentro do tema, e busca garantir a franca cooperação entre as redes científicas nas diversas áreas ou, ao menos, a coopetição entre quem educa e pesquisa.

RESUMO Este trabalho objetivou avaliar a influência de doses de esterco de galinha poedeira, aplicadas em cobertura, na produção de milho e na qualidade da silagem. Utilizou-se a variedade UFVM-100 Nativo. O delineamento experimental foi de blocos casualizados, com seis tratamentos (0,00; 0,75; 1,50; 2,25; 3,00 e 3,75 t ha-1 de esterco curtido) e quatro repetições. As variáveis analisadas foram altura de planta e altura de espiga, diâmetro do colmo, prolificidade, peso de espiga, proporção de espigas na matéria verde e produtividade de matéria verde e seca de plantas. O material cortado foi ensilado e, após 64 dias de armazenamento, os silos foram abertos para determinação dos teores de matéria seca e de proteína bruta, perdas por gases e por efluente, perda de matéria seca total e recuperação de matéria seca das silagens. Os dados foram submetidos à análise de variância pelo teste F e, as médias, submetidas à análise de regressão. Verificou-se incremento linear das produtividades das matérias verde e seca de plantas de milho, em resposta à aplicação do esterco. Para as demais características agronômicas e características avaliativas da silagem, não se verificou diferença significativa entre os tratamentos. Recomenda-se a aplicação de 3,75 t ha-1 do esterco de poedeira, para alcance de maior produção de matéria verde e seca de plantas de milho para silagem. A adubação orgânica com esterco de galinha poedeira não afetou a qualidade das silagens produzidas.

RESUMO O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a produção de sementes de soja, em função da aplicação de doses de molibdênio (Mo) foliar, e o crescimento e produção das plantas advindas das sementes obtidas desse cultivo. O cultivar utilizado foi o BRS Valiosa RR, no primeiro ano, sendo utilizadas três doses de Mo (0, 400 e 800 g ha-1), com quatro repetições. Com as sementes colhidas formaram-se três lotes de sementes, com diferentes quantidades de Mo (9,27; 51,56 e 65,43 mg kg-1 de Mo). No segundo ano, utilizando-se as sementes anteriormente produzidas, montaram-se dois experimentos, conduzidos paralelamente. O primeiro foi realizado em blocos casualizados, em esquema fatorial 3 x 3: três métodos de aplicação de Mo (sem aplicação, tratamento de sementes e por via foliar, no estádio V4, dose de 25 g ha-1 de Mo) e os três lotes de sementes enriquecidas do ano anterior, com quatro repetições. O segundo foi realizado em blocos casualizados, em esquema fatorial 4 x 4 x 3 [épocas de aplicação (V4, no pré- florescimento, R3 e R5) x doses de Mo foliar (0, 25, 50 e 100 g ha-1) x lotes de sementes enriquecidas com Mo do ano anterior], com quatro repetições. Conclui-se que o teor de proteína das sementes é 9% maior com a presença de Mo, independentemente do modo como é fornecido. A utilização de Mo influi positivamente na produtividade de soja, quando fornecido pelo uso de sementes enriquecidas com teor de até 51,56 mg kg-1, ou aplicação por via foliar, com doses entre 25 e 50 g ha-1.
Sugarcane yield estimation for climatic conditions in the state of Goiás
Authors: Caetano Jordana Moura , Casaroli Derblai
Published: July 2017

ABSTRACT Models that estimate potential and depleted crop yield according to climatic variable enable the crop planning and production quantification for a specific region. Therefore, the objective of this study was to compare methods to sugarcane yield estimates grown in the climatic condition in the central part of Goiás, Brazil. So, Agroecological Zone Method (ZAE) and the model proposed by Scarpari (S) were correlated with real data of sugarcane yield from an experimental area, located in Santo Antônio de Goiás, state of Goiás, Brazil. Data yield refer to the crops of 2008/2009 (sugarcane plant), 2009/2010, 2010/2011 and 2011/2012 (ratoon sugarcane). Yield rates were calculated as a function of atmospheric water demand and water deficit in the area under study. Real and estimated yields were adjusted in function of productivity loss due to cutting stage of sugarcane, using an average reduction in productivity observed in the experimental area and the average reduction in the state of Goiás. The results indicated that the ZAE method, considering the water deficit, displayed good yield estimates for cane-plant (d > 0.90). Water deficit decreased the yield rates (r = -0.8636; α = 0.05) while the thermal sum increased that rate for all evaluated harvests (r > 0.68; α = 0.05).

Published: July 2017

ABSTRACT The injection of nitrogen sources into the soil and use of nitrification inhibitor can improve the efficiency of applied nitrogen and minimize losses to the environment. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of swine slurry (SS) and urea in two modes of application in the soil (injected and surface), and the use of nitrification inhibitor on NH3 volatilization in a controlled environment, upon varying soil texture and soil pH conditions. The experiment was conducted under controlled conditions, or a Rhodic Kandiudox and Typic Hapludult soil in a completely randomized design in a 4 x 2 x 2 x 2 factorial design with three replications. The study evaluated four fertilizers (urea, SS, SS +nitrification inhibitor (dicyandiamide-DCD) and control), two pH conditions (natural and limed) and two forms of fertilizer application (injected and surface), and two soils. The SS rate used was 21 m3 ha-1, and the rate of the inhibitor was 10 kg ha-1. The evaluations consisted in daily accumulated ammonia volatilization up to 14 days, and the percentage of soil nitrogen loss. The injection of fertilizers reduced emissions of ammonia in both soils and, limed soil had higher N losses by volatilization. The inhibitor did not increase the emission of ammonia in both soils.
Volatilização de amônia do solo após doses de ureia com inibidores de urease e nitrificação na cultura do abacaxi

Published: July 2017

RESUMO Os inibidores de urease N-(n-butil) tiofosfóricotriamida (NBPT) e nitrificação dicianodiamida (DCD) minimizam as perdas de nitrogênio (N) pela volatilização da amônia (NH3), por redução da velocidade de hidrólise da ureia e conversão de amônio em nitrato, respectivamente. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar as perdas de N do solo por volatilização, após a adição de doses de N, na forma de ureia combinada com inibidores de urease e de nitrificação, no semiárido mineiro. Utilizou-se o delineamento em blocos casualizados, com três repetições, em esquema fatorial 4 x 5 x 7, constituídos por: quatro combinações de ureia com inibidores (ureia comum; ureia + NBPT; ureia + DCD e, ureia + NBPT + DCD), cinco doses de N (0,0; 3,7; 7,4; 11,1 e 14,8 g/planta) e sete tempos de avaliação (3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18 e 21 dias) após a aplicação, em cobertura, no cultivo de abacaxi irrigado. Foram avaliadas as perdas de amônia e o pH em torno do grânulo de ureia. O inibidor de urease (ureia + NBPT) foi mais eficiente nas menores doses de nitrogênio, além de reduzir e atrasar os períodos de volatilização de N-NH3 e também diminuir o pH do solo, por causa, provavelmente da maior nitrificação e, ou, do aumento da taxa de decomposição da matéria orgânica do solo (MOS), pela maior disponibilidade de N em comparação aos tratamentos com ureia e ureia + DCD. O aumento das doses de nitrogênio reduziu as perdas relativas de N por volatilização, graças à maior saturação dos sítios de ação da enzima urease.
As críticas de Amartya Sen à teoria da escolha social de Kenneth Arrow
Authors: Beltrame Bruno , Mattos Laura Valladão de
Published: July 2017

Resumo: Este artigo visa sistematizar as críticas que Amartya Sen dirige à estrutura teórica adotada por Arrow e mostrar como, para fugir dos resultados devastadores do teorema da impossibilidade, Sen defende a ampliação do universo de informações a serem utilizadas para embasar a escolha social. Inicialmente é apresentado um breve apanhado da teoria da escolha social de Arrow com o objetivo de fornecer o pano de fundo para a compreensão das críticas que Sen dirige a esse sistema teórico. Em seguida são expostas as interpretações de Sen sobre as razões que levaram ao resultado da impossibilidade e as críticas que este autor dirige aos fundamentos da teoria de Arrow. Por fim, são tecidas algumas considerações sobre a natureza desta reflexão crítica e suas consequências para a visão de bem-estar posteriormente adotada por Sen.

Published: July 2017

Resumo: Dada a importância de ampliar a visão da Economia fundamentada na maximização das utilidades e na renda dos países, o presente artigo objetiva incorporar o conceito de equidade em saúde e sua importância na discussão econômica sobre desenvolvimento humano, percorrendo uma trajetória bibliográfica que tem início na teoria tradicional do bem-estar e chega até a Abordagem das Capacitações. A associação entre a área de Economia, por meio da Abordagem das Capacitações, ea área da saúde pública, via discussão sobre os determinantes sociais de saúde, possibilita que este trabalho contribua com a definição de conceitos importantes para os estudos sobre equidade em saúde. Conclui-se que a multidimensionalidade presente nos conceitos de desenvolvimento humano e de equidade em saúde permite uma discussão rica, em termos de avaliação da vida das populações, na Economia.
O impacto das commodities sobre a dinâmica da inflação no Brasil e o papel amortecedor do câmbio: evidências para o CRB Índex e Índice de Commodities Brasil
Authors: Stockl Marcos , Moreira Ricardo Ramalhete , Giuberti Ana Carolina
Published: July 2017

Resumo: O presente trabalho investiga os impactos de choques de commodities, medidos pelo CRB index e pelo índice IC-Br, sobre a dinâmica inflacionária no Brasil, de janeiro de 2005 a dezembro de 2013, por meio de modelos vetoriais autoregressivos (VAR). Em especial, testou-se o papel da taxa de câmbio nominal enquanto mecanismo de amortecimento das pressões inflacionárias advindas daqueles choques. Os principais resultados foram os seguintes: (i) ambos os índices utilizados são robustos para antecipar variações de preços ao consumidor no Brasil; (ii) o CRB index é mais indicado para revelar a correlação inversa entre preços de commodities e a taxa nominal de câmbio no Brasil; (iii) as variações cambiais advindas dos choques nos preços de commodities são, como previsto pela literatura, um mecanismo importante de amortecimento das pressões inflacionárias resultantes.
Income distribution and external constraint: Brazil in the commodities boom
Authors: Martins Neto Antonio Soares
Published: July 2017

Abstract: Within the commodities price boom, Brazil experienced rising dependency on primary exports, along with falling inequality (as a result, among others, of extensive distributive programs). However, productivity growth was meager during the period. Not only this path is unsustainable in the medium run, but may also have harmed the long-run growth consistent with BOP equilibrium. This paper discusses, in a BOP-dominated macrodynamic model based on Ribeiro et al. (2016), the impact of Brazilian distributive policies in the BOP-constrained rate of growth. It is suggested that distributive programs can harm long-term growth due to rising income elasticity of imports and higher technological gap. Lastly, it is argued that the right balance of public investment and distributive programs would allow a virtuous cycle of growth and income distribution to emerge.
O representante eleito como intermediário entre o grupo e o poder
Authors: Galery Augusto Dutra
Published: July 2017

Resumo Este artigo investiga a hipótese de que o sistema democrático como modelo de organização de grupos instituídos tem a função intersubjetiva de manter o vínculo social, ao transferir para o representante eleito o mal-estar da convivência, mas sem permitir ao representante o poder absoluto. O representante ocupa, portanto, a posição de tabu, que mantém o desejo narcísico e onipotente rejeitado entre os membros. Do ponto de vista do representante, significa submeter seu ideal de Eu aos ideais do grupo, num movimento contrário ao do líder descrito por Freud em Psicologia das massas e análise do eu. Essa hipótese foi usada para analisar a história de vida de um representante sindical e retratar seu sofrimento psíquico durante sua atuação e após a saída do sindicato. A psicanálise e a psicossociologia são as principais teorias de base utilizadas, em destaque os textos de S. Freud, R. Kaës, J. Barus-Michel e E. Enriquez.
Tradição clínica da psiquiatria, psicanálise e práticas atuais em saúde mental

Published: July 2017

Resumo Este artigo aborda a clínica da psicose no campo da saúde mental propondo uma retomada de categorias da psiquiatria clássica pela psicanálise, especialmente o automatismo mental. Seu objetivo é demonstrar a utilidade do que pode ser considerado um programa de trabalho para o campo de tratamento da psicose na saúde mental, polarizado hoje entre o reducionismo biológico e a atenção psicossocial. A riqueza clínica dessas descrições psiquiátricas clássicas, em sua releitura pelo viés da teorização lacaniana, possibilita reconhecer o funcionamento complexo da psicose e, em particular, o trabalho do sujeito para fazer face às dificuldades impostas por essa condição. Como conclusão, o automatismo mental de Clérambault é analisado visando a demonstrar a dependência estrutural de todo sujeito em relação à linguagem e ao significante, fato primeiro do qual deriva a subjetividade como efeito.
Evitação e proibição do incesto: fatores psicobiológicos e culturais
Authors: Holanda Júnior Francisco Wilson Nogueira
Published: July 2017

Resumo Embora historicamente a regulação proibitiva do incesto seja considerada um fenômeno cultural quase universal que não é influenciado por fatores psicobiológicos relativos à história evolutiva da espécie humana, evidências recentes têm questionado essa visão tradicional e defendido que a evitação e a proibição do incesto são influenciadas biológica e cognitivamente com a cultura. Este artigo objetiva desenvolver uma discussão teórica acerca da inibição e proibição do incesto, enfatizando os mecanismos evolutivos subjacentes a esses fenômenos. Argumenta-se a existência de mecanismos endógenos que evoluíram porque inibem a atividade sexual entre parentes próximos e que formam a base para regular socialmente a proibição do incesto (mecanismo exógeno). Destaca-se o efeito Westermarck, no qual a proximidade de pessoas que vivem juntas desde a infância provoca uma aversão ao intercurso sexual entre elas. A ausência de propensão ao incesto e sua proibição institucional constituem uma complexa integração entre fatores psicobiológicos e culturais.
Construindo a noção de sintoma: articulações entre psicanálise e pragmática
Authors: Silva Ana Carolina , Rudge Ana Maria
Published: July 2017

Resumo Este trabalho pretende identificar pontos de aproximação entre a psicanálise e os estudos sobre a linguagem presentes na obra do filósofo austríaco Ludwig Wittgenstein. Para tal, parte-se da construção da noção de sintoma, sua definição no campo médico e psiquiátrico até sua demarcação no campo psicanalítico, elemento que só se define por sua relação com as práticas discursivas do sujeito. Ao introduzir a noção de jogos de linguagem, Wittgenstein destaca o caráter pragmático da linguagem: as regras de uso estabelecidas em determinado contexto conferem o significado a uma expressão linguística. Se para a psicanálise o sintoma implica uma articulação simbólica, é na relação entre significantes, própria do jogo linguístico, que se estabelecem as possibilidades de significação do próprio sujeito.

Resumen La violencia armada en Colombia obliga a las personas a abandonar su territorio para salvaguardar la vida. Cuatro estudios de caso con poblaciones desplazadas (mujeres jefas de hogar, afrodescendientes, indígenas, campesinos) fueron emprendidos para aproximarse a la comprensión de dos procesos principales en los que se ven inmersos los migrantes forzados en búsqueda de superar la pérdida de su lugar en el mundo: desterritorialización y reterritorialización. La investigación mostró, entre las múltiples afectaciones que sobrevienen a estas personas, la dinámica de reconstrucción de un territorio para sí mismos que les exige adaptarse a condiciones de elevada precariedad en una espiral de pobreza y también de dependencia que los sujeta a la asistencia social y económica del Estado. Comprender el proceso que atraviesan involucra acercarse a una dimensión simbólica: significados y relación con el lugar de origen y con el lugar de reubicación; y una dimensión material: vivienda, trabajo, relaciones sociales y ocio.

ABSTRACT: Lippia rotundifolia is a specie native to the Brazilian Cerrado, endemic to the Cadeia do Espinhaço mountain range. Due to the limited information about the species, the present study aimed to characterize the ecogeography, climate conditions and physical and chemical characteristics of the soil of Lippia rotundifolia in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. Thirteen sites were ecogeographically characterized: Parque Estadual Veredas do Peruaçu; Gigante; Rio do Peixe; AEP of Olhos D’água; Joaquim Felício; Parque Estadual do Rio Preto; São Gonçalo do Rio das Pedras; Rio Tigre; RPPN Brumas do Espinhaço; Lapinha; Poço Bonito; Abóboras; and Parque Estadual de Serra Nova. Environments belonged to Cerrado and Caatinga biomes, specifically in rocky and altitude fields. The species occurs at altitudes between 691-1311m, with precipitation between 700 to 1600mm and average temperature between 14.5 to 24°C. In these vegetation types, the soils were sandy, hyper dystrophic and highly toxic with a low cation exchange capacity. These characteristics make the species undemanding with regard to edaphoclimatic and ecogeographic factors.

ABSTRACT: Bovine respiratory diseases (BRD) affect production rates negatively because it compromise health and well-being of the affected animal. The hypothesis of this study was that the use of metaphylactic protocols based on the risk to develop BRD would reduce morbidity and pulmonary lesions. For this purpose, the aims of this study were to evaluate the effect of two metaphylactic protocols on the morbidity of feedlot cattle with a known sanitary history, occurrence of pulmonary lesions at slaughter, and the possible participation of Mannheimia haemolytica, Histophilus somni, Bovine alphaherpesvirus 1 (BoHV-1) and bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV) in the development of BRD. An experimental study was designed in which 3,094 adult, male, cattle, were grouped according to the risk to develop BRD: a) group without metaphylaxis (n=2,104), low-risk animals; b) metaphylaxis group with oxytetracycline (n=789), moderate-risk animals; c) metaphylaxis group with tildipirosin (n=201), high-risk animals. All cattle were immunized against pathogens associated with BRD (BoHV-1, BVDV, BRSV, PI3). The morbidity for BRD was 8.2% (253/3,094); cattle within the moderate-risk group for BRD had the lowest frequency (6.1%), followed by high-risk animals with tildipirosin metaphylaxis (6.5%) and low-risk without metaphylaxis (9.1%) (P=0.019). At the abattoir, 1.2% of lungs with lesions were found. There was a difference (P=0.036) in the frequency of pulmonary lesions between healthy animals (1.1%) and those diagnosed with BRD (2.8%). Two agents associated with BRD were identified by PCR assays in the lungs (n=37) of cattle: M. haemolytica (16.2%) and H. somni (5.4%). In addition, concomitant infections involving these pathogens were identified in the lungs of two steers. These results demonstrate that the use of metaphylactic protocols, based on the risk to develop BRD, reduces morbidity and pulmonary lesions in affected cattle. Furthermore, pulmonary lesions were more frequent in animals with a history of BRD.

ABSTRACT: This study was conducted to evaluate the in vitro anthelmintic activity of the succinic acid (SA) isolated from sisal waste against gastrointestinal nematodes of goats, using the egg hatching and larvae motility assays. In addition, potential cytotoxicity of SA on Vero cell cultures was investigated by means of MTT (3-4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl, 2,5diphenyltetrazolium bromide) test. The SA induced a significant inhibition of egg hatching (P<0.05) at all concentrations tested (60 to 250µg mL-1), and the concentrations to inhibit 50% (EC50) and 90% (EC90) values (mean ± standard deviation) were 90.3±2.8 and 130.6±3.5µg mL-1, respectively. The SA has not shown larvicidal activity. The SA was less toxic to the Vero cells, with the mean percentage of cell viability equal to 85±6.2% at the concentration of 130µg mL-1. The results suggested that SA has potential anthelmintic effect; although, more research is needed to confirm its activity in vivo.

ABSTRACT: Essential oil extraction is commonly carried out by using the hydrodistillation method, which is described in official compendia of food quality control and medicinal plants. Despite the widespread use of this method, few studies have evaluated the effect of the atmosphere change during extraction on the composition and antioxidant activity of essentials oils. Therefore, a study of oxygen introduction influence during the extraction of essential oils from basil, lemongrass and lemon by hydrodistillation was performed. Total amount of oxygenated compounds (e.g., linalool, camphor, α-terpineol, neral, geranial, eugenol and α-muurolol) increased for all essential oils extracted under oxygen flow. Antioxidant activity evaluated by using the ORAC method significantly increased (P<0.0001) with oxygen from 618 to 906, 355 to 613 and 72 to 262µmol Trolox g-1 oil for basil, lemongrass and lemon, respectively. Therefore, the simple modification proposed could be considered a suitable alternative to obtain essential oils with higher antioxidant activity.

ABSTRACT Objective: to assess the prevalence and the factors associated with the occurrence of musculoskeletal pain in hospital cleaning workers. Method: cross-sectional study, involving 157 outsourced workers at a university hospital in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. The data were collected through a semistructured interview and analyzed through descriptive and analytic statistics. The prevalence of musculoskeletal pain corresponded to 70.1%, with strong and unbearable intensity in 25.5% of the cases. Results: the workers were between 19 and 34 old; 95%CI=1.03-1.27, those without time for leisure RPa=1.14; 95%CI=1.03-1.27 and those who sometimes have time for leisure RPa=1.10; 95%CI=1.02-1.20 presented higher prevalence rates for musculoskeletal pain than the other groups. Conclusion: no association was verified between musculoskeletal pain and occupational factors. Nevertheless, the workers perform their activities even with musculoskletal symptoms, which suggests attention.

ABSTRACT Objective: an experience report with families after natural disasters to present the adapted application of autobiographical narrative analysis in nursing research, proposed by Fritz Schütze. Method: to describe the process of obtaining narratives followed by the adaptations steps of method application. Results: six cases of families from a rural area of southern Brazil were surveyed one year after the disaster which resulted in deaths and material losses. The first step was the formal text analysis. The second, was the accurate analysis of each narrative segment. The third phase consisted of the analytic abstraction with the reconstruction of the families' stories. The fourth step recaptured the discussion segments of narratives and theoretical explanations developed by the informants about the disaster. The fifth step summarized the comparison among different cases. Conclusion: the method offers support for interviews and in-depth analysis of health and disease narratives and their social context. Its potential for application to nursing research highlights attitudes and life changes in the face of crisis and suffering, based on experiences of individuals in groups such as families and communities.

ABSTRACT Objective: to identify factors associated with the quality of life/spirituality, religion and personal beliefs of patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis. Method: correlational cross-sectional study. The following instruments were applied through individual interviews: the WHOQOL-Bref, the WHOQOL-SRPB, along with a questionnaire to characterize the participants. The sample consisted of 110 participants with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis. Descriptive analysis was performed along with univariate and multiple logistic regression to identify associated factors. Results: low level of albumin was mainly associated with the “physical” and “social relationships” domains of the WHOQOL-BREF. Participants without an occupation presented the greatest compromise in the domains “Connectedness to a spiritual being or force” and “Awe”. In the domain “spiritual strength”, participants worth an occupation presented higher chances of low quality of life. Conclusion: the factors associated with the domains of quality of life of patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis were: occupation, marital status, sex, education, religion, levels of hematocrit and albumin, and overall health.
