Published: May 2019

Soil is essential for plant growth. The soil provides support for plant, medium for root growth, and most importantly it offers nutrients for plant uptake. The nutrients variability in soil is vary depending on several factors such as soil type, soil microbes, and soil pH. Therefore, nutrients available in the soil is important to be mapped to investigate the state of nutrient present. In this study, the available content of Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P) and Potassium (K) were determined for a high-density planting systems of Harumanis mango plants grown in the greenhouse. Thirty-two soil samples were collected from a greenhouse for analysis of NPK content in top soil. The soil was analyzed using the Kjeldahl method, UV Spectrophotometer and Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) for N, P, and K content respectively. These amount of macronutrients were then mapped with respective georeferenced location to produce NPK nutrients maps using standard classification in ArcGIS software. Results have indicated that N, P, and K were ranged between 0.06 - 0.12% (very low), 4 - 648 ppm (low-very high) and 0.02 -1.37 cmol/kg (low-high) accordingly. Overall, it can be concluded, soil in selected greenhouse is poor in N, high in P and moderate in K content. Hence, it is suggested more N and adequate amount of K fertilizer should be supplied to increase the plant's productivity.  The produced maps give a new perspective in a farming management concept in term of variable rate fertilizer application for Harumanis mango plants grown in the greenhouse.

Published: May 2019

Middle Miocene Climatic Optimum (MMCO) is widely distributed and associated with increasing temperature and CO2 content in the atmosphere. The effects of MMCO are identified in the mid-latitude region, with lack of examples from the low latitude areas. In this study, we aim to determine the effect of MMCO at Cibulakan Formation of Bogor Basin, Indonesia, which is situated in lower latitude. We took 58 samples from the Cibulakan Formation, which is exposed along Cileungsi River, for quantitative nannoplankton (the abundance of Helicosphaera carteri) analysis to mark increasing and decreasing salinity event, as they are sensitive to temperature. Temperature relates to the salinity of the seawater due to evaporation. From our analysis, we identified sea surface temperature change in Early Miocene which was presumably due to small scale Early Miocene glaciation and active tectonic during the period. The warmer temperature took place on Middle Miocene as the effect of a warm and open sea environment during Mid Miocene Climatic Optimum. Afterward, the temperature continued to rise until the late Miocene, as it had been triggered by the increasing global temperature at the Pacific Ocean and widely distributed clean water at North West Java Basin during the depositional period.

Pontes para uma atuação psicofísica: resenha Criativa a partir da primeira parte da obra Psychophysical Acting: An intercultural approach after Stanislavski, de Phillip Zarrilli
Authors: Fernando Edson , Jones Augusto
Published: May 2019

ResumoEste trabalho se apresenta sob a denominação “resenha criativa”. Trata-se de um formato que pretende apresentar ao leitor brasileiro, não versado na língua inglesa, número bastante considerável de passagens textuais em língua portuguesa do primeiro capítulo da obra de Phillip B. Zarrilli intitulada Psychophysical Acting: An intercultural approach after Stanislavski. Para tanto, aproveito a metáfora que Eugênio Barba utiliza para definir esta obra de Zarrilli, isto é, “uma paisagem feita de pontes”. A partir desta metáfora desenvolvo uma narrativa na qual dois personagens – Luka Paranoid e Atrizg, mestre e discípula – seguirão atravessando as “pontes” que Zarrilli constrói em sua obra. A travessia, desse modo, se estabelece como a alegoria para a compreensão e prática de uma atuação psicofísica alicerçada no treinamento com artes marciais e meditativas asiáticas. Tal procedimento de escrita encontra-se afinado com a proposta de escrita criativa de Sylvie Fortin.AbstractThis work is presented under the denomination “creative review”. It is a format that intends to present to the Brazilian reader, not versed in the English language, quite a considerable number of textual passages in Portuguese language from the first chapter of the work of Phillip B. Zarrilli entitled Psychophysical Acting: An intercultural approach after Stanislavski. To do so, I take advantage of the metaphor that Eugenio Barba uses to define this work of Zarrilli, that is, “a landscape made of bridges”. From this metaphor I develop a narrative in which two characters - Luka Paranoid and Atrizg, master and disciple - will continue to cross the “bridges” Zarrilli builds in his work. The crossing thus establishes itself as the allegory for the understanding and practice of a psychophysical performance grounded in training with Asian meditative and martial arts. Such a writing procedure is in tune with Sylvie Fortin’s creative writing proposal.
E o palhaço o que é? É uma mulher

Published: May 2019

ResumoEste ensaio traz a fala de uma mulher que descobre em si um palhaço, mesmo atuando, há 13 anos, como palhaça. O encontro com o palhaço Uisquisito ocorreu em 2012, no grupo de teatro Palhaços Trovadores, do qual faço parte há 10 anos. A partir disso, atuar na palhaçaria com gêneros diferentes, feminino e masculino, trouxe-me reflexões não só na arte do palhaço, fato de ter dois palhaços, mas sobretudo, de se provocar discussões do que é uma mulher que tem um palhaço, que em suas primeiras experimentações faz leituras de poemas-manifestos. Com um olhar de pesquisadora para meu fazer artístico, escrever e ler poemas-manifestos se tornou uma característica do Uisquisito. Seus escritos sempre relacionados aos contextos políticos atuais da cidade de Belém, muitos referentes a falta de investimentos na área da cultura, ao descaso com os artistas, as limitações de acesso aos teatros e outros espaços para o movimento artístico na cidade. O Uisquisito me faz pensar na potência política que a comicidade tem, tanto no ato transgressor de uma mulher ser palhaça e ser palhaço por desejo, não por imposição, como era no circo antigamente, quanto na força de provocar reflexões sobre os contextos políticos na atualidade, trazendo o teatro, a comicidade e a palhaçaria como uma forte arma de discussão.AbstractThis essay brings the speech of a woman who discovers in herself a male clown, even though she has been acting for 13 years as a female clown. The meeting with the clown Uisquisito took place in 2012, in the theater group Palhaços Trovadores, which I have been a part of for the last 10 years. Acting through different gender in clowns brought me reflections, not only in the art of clown, in the fact of having two them, but most of all, provoking discussions of what is a woman who has a male clown, who in his first experiments performed poem-manifest readings. With a researcher’s eye at my artistic work, writing and reading poems-manifest has become a feature of Uisquisito. His writings are related to the current political contexts at the city of Belém, referring mainly to investments in the cultural area, neglect of artists, limitations of theaters and spaces for the artistic movement in the city. Uisquisito makes me think about the political power comedy has, first in the transgressing act of a woman being a being a male clown by desire, not by imposition, as it used to be in the circus of old. Second, in the force of provoking reflections on the political contexts nowadays, bringing the theater, comedy and clownery as a strong weapon of discussion.

Published: May 2019

ResumoO presente estudo foi elaborado por meio de pesquisas e vivências a partir de um dos elementos do hip-hop, cultura na qual investigamos neste campo de estudo, desde o ano de 2012. As abordagens centrais aqui desenvolvidas partem de uma pesquisa extensa, tanto filosófica quanto poética, de experiências e criações, sobretudo a partir das reflexões e contribuições do projeto de pesquisa Poéticas Contemporâneas: Bricolagem coreográfica e improvisação, coordenado pela professora Dra.Waldete Brito, realizado na Escola de Teatro e Dança na Universidade Federal do Pará, em 2017. A partir de discussões neste projeto, buscamos compreender em que medida é possível identificar a bricolagem nas “batalhas” de rimas que ocorrem nas periferias de Belém e no município de Barcarena, localidades de grande crescimento deste movimento artístico. Observamos nas rodas de Freestyle (estilo livre),a velocidade e habilidade que os MC’s, (Mestre de cerimônia) possuem no ato do improviso. Há uma subjetividade criativa de bricolar gestualidade, sonoridade corporal e técnicas, para construir as rimas. O texto constrói-se no diálogo com os autores Lévi-Strauss, Fayga Ostrower, Joe Kincheloe, dentre outros que contribuem para esta tessitura tramada de bricolagem cênica.AbstractThe present study was elaborated through researches and experiences that I had when entering one of the elements of hip-hop, a culture in which I dive in search and to know since 2012, year in which I had the first contact with this dance genre. The central studies developed here, part of an extensive research, both philosophical and poetic of my experiences, mainly from the reflections and contributions of the Research Project: Contemporary poetics: choreographic bricolage and improvisation, coordinated by Professor Dr Waldete Brito, Theater and Dance at the Federal University of Pará. Based on discussions in the research project, I will investigate to what extent it is possible to identify the choreographic bricolage and the “battles” of rhymes that occur in the peripheries of Belém and in the municipality of Barcarena, localities of great growth of this cultural movement, in which the practitioners who, through the improvisation in the body-rhyme relationship, “battle” each other. It was on the wheels of freestyles that the desire to research and study the “MC’S” (Master of Ceremony) was born, based on observations, improvisation, of their gestures and the way in which they construct their rhymes. There is a creative subjectivity of bricolar gesture, body sound and techniques, to build the rhymes. The text is constructed in the dialogue with the authors Lévi-Strauss, Fayga Ostrower, Joe Kincheloe, among others that contribute to this scenario made of bricolage scenic.

A high risk to the population health caused by industrial and motor vehicles emissions was estimated, whereas the cardiovascular system was most severely affected by negative impact of the technogenic emissions. The necessity to conduct a complex of preventive measures to avoid risk of negative effects of technogenic emissions on the population health was established. As well as the necessity to apply modern methods to calculate the non-cancer health risk to the population of Vladikavkaz under chronic inhalation exposure of technogenic substances in the lower layers of atmospheric air was proved.
TOXICOLOGICAL AND HYGIENIC CHARACTERISTICS OF MYCOTOXIN STERIGMATOCYSTIN AND METHODS FOR ITS DETERMINATION IN FOOD PRODUCTS
Authors: Sedova Irina B. , Kiseleva M. G. , Zakharova L. P. , Tutelyan V. A.
Published: May 2019

The present issue reviews literature and own research data and gives toxicological and hygienic characteristic of sterigmatocystin. This mycotoxin is produced by fungi of Aspergillus, Bipolaris, Chaetomium, Emiricella species, and is found in cereals, food products (bread, cheese, spices, coffee, dietary supplements) and feed. Sterigmatocystin being a biogenic precursor of aflatoxin B1, has similar chemical structure and exhibits the same toxicological properties, but its toxicity is ten times lower. However, these toxins are rarely detected together. A. versicolor and A. nidulans do not have enzymes necessary for the conversion of sterigmatocystin into aflatoxins, on the contrary, A. flavus and А. parasiticus transform almost all STC into aflatoxins. Sterigmatocystin has been recognized by International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) as a 2B carcinogen (possibly carcinogenic to humans). The primary target organ for both mycotoxins is liver. Sterigmatocystin shows mutagenic, toxic and teratogenic effects in animals. Up to date national and international data on sterigmatocystin occurrence in different products is summarized, analytical methods of the determination are reviewed, hygienic assessment of the STC as a priority pollutant is given in the present paper. Also information on STC exposure assessment with regard to different kinds of foodstuff in different countries is being reported, available data on maximum levels of STC in food and feed is discussed. However, data on toxin’s occurrence in food is insufficient for elaboration of hygienic regulations on allowable mycotoxin’s concentration in priority products. Databases Web of Science, PubMed, E-library, CyberLeninka were used when searching the literature.

Published: May 2019

In the article specific, psycho-traumatic conditions of the professional activity of the staff of the penitentiary system are considered. They are associated with the periodically arising threat to life and health, honor and dignity, in the protection and convoy of convicted criminals. The purpose of the study is to identify the problems of psycho-hygienic training of officers of the penitentiary system for performing their professional tasks. The subject of the study is the psycho-hygienic training of officers of the penitentiary system. The subject of the research is the ways of psycho-hygienic training of officers of the penitentiary system. Under the psycho-hygienic training of officers of the penitentiary system, official activity is understood as the formation of a stable psychological state. It ensures effective professional activity. Psychological readiness to perform professional activities is a factor in the effective service of officers of the penitentiary system. Simultaneously - this is an important condition of psycho-hygiene. Psychological readiness needs to be diagnosed during the admission to the service and developed in the process of adaptation during the initial preparation. There is a psychological selection of candidate's compliance with the required conditions of the service. But, most young officers have poor psychological preparedness to perform professional tasks. It is proposed to strengthen the psycho-hygienic aspects of the educational process; to assess the level of psycho-hygienic training of officers of the penitentiary service at the stage of their professional selection; organize the psychotherapeutic support of officers of the penitentiary system during the initial training with the aim of developing their professionally important qualities as the basis for psycho-hygienic training; consider psycho-hygienic training for performance as one of the determining factors in the overall assessment of officers of penitentiary institutions.

Introduction. The atmospheric air is known to be the most contaminated on territories where industries are highly developed; non-ferrous metallurgy is one of them that make the greatest contribution into atmospheric air contamination. Data and methods. Our research objects were air samples taken on territories where there was located an enterprise producing metallurgic aluminum and our reference samples were taken on a territory where there was no such production; we also examined databases containing data on morbidity of children population, non-carcinogenic risk assessment, number of exposed population, and the results of epidemiologic examination. Results. Quality of the atmospheric air was unsatisfactory as there were concentrations of suspended substances, PM10 solid particles, nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide, as well as persistence occurrence of manganese, nickel, and copper compounds resulted from activities of enterprises that produced metallurgic aluminum. All the above-mentioned admixtures cause an unacceptable risk of non-carcinogenic effects emerging in the respiratory organs. A significant contribution into hazard index is made by suspended substances, PM10 and PM2.5 particles. Fine-dispersed fraction having a complicated chemical structure (ferric oxides; aluminum, silicon, nickel, chromium, titanium, and manganese oxides), can aggravate negative impacts on the respiratory organs, exerted by the identified risk factors. The prevalence of respiratory organs diseases among children population living on an exposed territory confirms environmental risks to make increased levels of the overall and primary morbidity rate. We proved a probability of respiratory organs diseases to be depended on concentrations of the examined substances in the atmosphere, including suspended substances and fine-dispersed fractions of PM10 and PM2.5, nitrogen oxide, nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide, compounds of nickel, manganese, and copper. Discussion. The detected cause-and-effect relations between a risk of increased morbidity with respiratory organs diseases in children and exposure to chemical risk factors, primarily suspended particles, PM10 and PM2.5, are also confirmed by results obtained in a number of research that concentrates on peculiarities of effects produced by the examined chemical factors on respiratory organs diseases in children. Conclusions. Children living on a territory exposed to the exposure exerted by an enterprise that produces metallurgic aluminum have a chronic aerogenic risk for respiratory organs diseases; this risk becomes apparent due to the elevated morbidity rate of respiratory organs diseases. This risk is proved to be related to impacts exerted by suspended substances and fine-dispersed fractions of PM10 and PM2.5, nitrogen oxide, nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide, manganese, nickel, and copper.
METHODOLOGICAL APPROACHES TO OPTIMIZATION OF THE LABORATORY CONTROL OVER PRODUCT SAFETY WITHIN RISK-BASED SURVEILLANCE FRAMEWORK
Authors: May I. V. , Nikiforova Nadezhda V.
Published: May 2019

Introduction. Data obtained in laboratory research on the safety of products performed within surveillance and control activities are most informative for products risk assessment and assessment of risks for consumers health. But the same time resources provided for laboratory research are limited; therefore, examinations can’t cover all the parameters that characterize the safety of an object under surveillance. Consequently, it is necessary to optimize laboratory control over products safety; after optimization, it will require acceptable costs but still will be most informative and reliable to solve tasks related to control and detection of non-compliance with obligatory safety requirements. Data and methods. We analyzed the results of scheduled and unscheduled inspections on products safety performed by Federal Service on Consumer Rights Protection and Human Welfare Supervision in 2015-2017. We estimated percent and shares of product samples deviating from standards as per separate parameters. The potential risk to consumers’ health was estimated in situations when requirements to products safety failed to meet. The potential risk was estimated in conformity with methodical approaches approved by Federal Service on Consumer Rights Protection and Human Welfare Supervision. Results. It was detected that even when laboratory researches were quite significant in volumes, the overall percent of violations detected during it was at a rather low level (approximately 5%). the The frequency of violations detected for specific products as per specific parameters was found to be substantially higher than the average figure and could reach 46%. Discussion. Efficiency of laboratory support for control activities can be increased significantly if a certain algorithm is implemented. The algorithm involves in-depth analysis of laboratory results collected over many years of control on products safety; creation of “violations profiles” and, in future, “risk profiles” for specific product groups; and choice on priority indices that are subject to obligatory control. The analysis results should substantiate more frequent instrumental measuring of indices for which there is the maximum probability of hygienic standards violation and that can cause the highest population health risks; at the same time, “low-risk” indices will be measured less frequently. This approach completely corresponds to internationally accepted principles of risk-oriented surveillance and ensures that control and surveillance activities are concentrated on products most hazardous for consumers’ health.

Purpose. The purpose of this study was to consider the role of socio-hygienic monitoring in the implementation of the regional strategy for prevention of iodine deficiency. Materials and methods. The samples of salt from the market (2010-17) and salt which used by households of the Tyumen region (2013, 2016, 2017) were analyzed. Monitoring of retail markets in different municipalities was conducted to the analysis of the cost and assortment of iodized salt; Results of a representative sociological study of the behavior of families schoolchildren of grades 5-11 of the Tyumen region were examined. Results. The regional program for the prevention of iodine deficiency is being implemented in the Tyumen region for 20 years. This system of social and hygienic monitoring makes it possible to obtain objective data on the effectiveness of prevention and identify its weaknesses. At present, the need of the population of the region for iodized high-quality salt is provided completely: 0.17% of unsatisfactory samples of iodized salt was registered in 2016, unsatisfactory samples were not detected in 2017. A sociological study of the consumer behavior of parents of schoolchildren in the Tyumen region showed an increase in the number of parents who daily consume iodized salt in their home meals, from 53% in 2013 to 67% in 2017. In accordance with the analysis of salt samples from households in 2013, 26% of samples were content of iodine was in accordance with State Standards (GOST) R 51574-2000, in 2016 - 33%, in 2017 in all samples, the salt content of iodine met the requirements. The implemented regional policy of preventing iodine deficiency in the region is effective and requires further work with the population.

Policy management of institutes and business organizations’ activity, dealing with radiation sources, has more of a bulky and confusing complex of requirements at the present day. The requirements being very substantial, slow down economic growth of entire branches in the field of the beneficial use of radiation technologies, and, at the same time, do not provide the condition of radiation safety. Prime Minister Dmitriy Medvedev, without any coincidence, pointed out the problem during a plenary meeting as an overpressure of regulatory and supervisory bodies on the Russian private sector. According to him, the task can be solved with ‘a regulatory guillotine’. The upcoming article resembles the first attempt to analyze and sort reasons and factors, providing a glimpse of the current situation, search key elements that cause negative influence in the field taken. On the ground of analysis of regulatory documents, vast survey experience and estimation of radiation objects and technologies, authors suggest a new complex of requirements to provide radiation security, their breakdown of classes depending on danger level of radiation objects and operating with sources of ionizing radiation. The article presents the analysis of current regulatory documents on radiation hygiene field and radiation security, retrospective view on valid documents, the expertise of activity of regulatory and supervisory bodies as part of licensing of the activity with man-made sources of ionizing radiation.

Health assessment of workers of four meat processing plants in the Republic of Moldova in the 2011-2015 was carried out. The analysis of temporary disability showed the incidence the respiratory diseases (13.9±1.3 cases for 134.0±17.1 days per 100 workers) to prevail in the structure of disability), followed by the diseases of circulatory system (5.90±0.52 cases and 85.0±9.0 days per 100 workers) as well as the diseases of bone and muscular system (3.54±0.67 cases and 55.2±12.9 days per 100 workers), and diseases of digestive system (3.11±0.44 cases and 45.9±6.2 days of 100 workers) and injuries, poisonings and some other consequences of the influence of the external factors (3.02±0.40 cases and 48.8±10.3 days per 100 workers). Indices of the frequency and severity showed a tendency to fall. The index of diseases prevalence showed on average annually decreasing by 6.7 cases per 100 workers (R2 = 0.95), and an index of the duration of diseases for 77.0 days per 100 workers (R2 = 0,95). The meat processing plants suffered from economic losses because of the temporary disability of workers in the amount of 1892434.25 lei/107009.6 dollars.

Introduction. A high level of tobacco use among medical workers is registered in Russia. The adherence to this bad habit can undermine the medical professionals’ authority and reduce the effectiveness of the preventive work with the population. The goal of this research was to determine the smoking prevalence among medical students, their level of awareness of health risks, and attitudes of smokers to this bad habit. Material and methods. The survey concerning the prevalence and attitudes towards smoking was conducted among the students of the medical faculty of the Sechenov University. Students were asked about biographical data, health status at the time of the survey, attitudes towards healthy lifestyles and smoking, the respondents’ awareness of the detriment of tobacco smoking, attitudes to the anti-smoking campaign. A separate block of questions was addressed to smokers (smoking experience, smoking intensity, reasons for initiation). Results. Of the 531 respondents, 18.0% were smokers at the time of the survey, 9.4% were former smokers, 72.5% never smoked. 59.6% of smokers had low smoking intensity. 3.2% of smokers had high smoking intensity. Smoking experience in both sex groups averaged 4.56 years. The main reasons for students’ initiation to smoking were curiosity (27.8%), the influence of the closest active smoking environment (21.5%), as well as existing problems in the family and the educational process (16.7%). Most of the students were informed about the negative effects of smoking and 82.7% of current smokers planned to give up smoking. 94% of smokers believed they to need professional help to stop smoking. Discussion. The prevalence of smoking among students at Sechenov University is comparable to the data of the Global Survey of Medical Students. Conclusions. Smoking is still common among medical students. The training of future health care workers in knowledge and skills to stop smoking should be carried out within an additional curriculum in a medical university.

The study assessed the physical development of rural and urban children aged of 7-10 years in the Altai Territory for somatometric and physiometric indices (height, body weight, chest circumference, vital capacity of lungs, dynamometry, arterial pressure). Somatometric indices of the physical development in rural children of primary school level have been established to be statistically significantly higher than similar indices of urban children in boys and girls. The evaluation of physiometric indices in groups of rural and urban children revealed another trend. Indices of the right-hand muscle strength, the vital capacity of lungs, arterial pressure (systolic and diastolic) by 10 years in urban children begins to exceed these indices of rural peers. The revealed differences in the physical development of rural and urban children show a different combination and a share of the influence of environmental factors on the schoolchildren’s organism.
Uma visão geral da literatura sobre prospecção de tecnologias futuras: características, desafios e tendências
Authors: Souza Donizeti Leandro de , Zambalde André Luiz
Published: May 2019

O objetivo deste artigo é sistematizar os estudos sobre prospecção de tecnologias futuras por meio de análises bibliométricas e semânticas. Foram analisadas as principais características, os desafios e as tendências dos estudos, tendo como referência os artigos indexados na base Web of Science. Os resultados indicam um crescente interesse sobre a temática, sendo emergentes em diversas áreas do conhecimento, o que contribui para novas tendências de estudos. No entanto, as pesquisas se mostram fragmentadas, com predomínio de estudos qualitativos e pequenos grupos de pesquisadores dedicados à temática, o que contribui para o surgimento de novos desafios. Tais compreensões poderão contribuir para o avanço de pesquisas no campo da estratégia e da inovação, seja em perspectivas macro, como: políticas de CT&I, sistemas de inovação e desenvolvimento socioeconômico, ou em perspectivas micro, como nas estratégias para o planejamento de tecnologias e inovações em universidades e empresas.
O efeito dos gastos públicos sociais no crescimento econômico: uma análise comparativa entre os países membros da CEPAL e OCDE
Authors: Buzar Reis Anderson Gedeon , Bueno Newton Paulo
Published: May 2019

A literatura que aborda o efeito dos gastos públicos sociais sobre o crescimento econômico dos países é controversa. O objetivo deste estudo é duplo. Avaliar se o investimento em gasto público social realizado pelo Estado impacta positivamente o crescimento da economia dos países e, em segundo lugar, testar se a desigualdade de renda influência esse efeito. A amostra foi composta por 20 países pertencentes a CEPAL e 33 países pertencentes a OCDE no intervalo de anos de 2002 a 2014. Os resultados da análise indicam que, em ambos os cenários, isto é, levando em consideração o efeito dos gastos públicos sociais sobre o crescimento da economia e considerando ambientes com alta e baixa desigualdade de renda, o efeito dos gastos públicos sociais sobre o crescimento do PIB é negativo. Esses resultados sugerem que o gasto público social para gerar crescimento do PIB deverá elevar a produtividade da economia.

Dear Reader, The offer of a new scientific or technological publication to the reader, especially one with an academic view, is endowed with the duality of sensations: enthusiasm and challenge. The enthusiasm is justified by the opportunity of projecting the journal in the context of the scientific community, in the expectation of being in the raison d'etre of the existence of readers, authors and the editorial team itself. The challenge is consistent in the audacity and predisposition to manifest to an audience that, although practically invisible, is substantively and objectively critical.
Ensaio Crítico sobre Participação Eletrônica via Teoria da Ação Comunicativa
Authors: Freitas Jorge Lheureux de , Macadar Marie Anne
Published: May 2019

A partir da evolução da pesquisa acadêmica, o presente ensaio apresenta a participação eletrônica, ou e-participação, com base nas diversas acepções da literatura vigente. No passo seguinte, descreve a Teoria da Ação Comunicativa, TAC, com ênfase nas ações comunicativa e estratégica, entendimento, pretensões de validade (verdade, retidão e sinceridade) e comunicação sistematicamente distorcida. Fundado em estudos de casos, o ensaio evidencia as conexões entre o universo estudado e os fundamentos da Teoria da Ação Comunicativa, acrescentando acessibilidade e facilidade de uso como requisitos para compreensão dos conteúdos da e-participação. Em termos de contribuição teórica, o estudo demonstra a viabilidade de interpretar a estudar de forma crítica a e-participação pela TAC, reforçando a corrente que defende a aplicabilidade dessa teoria à Administração da Informação, ADI. Por final, advoga a transparência eletrônica como campo profícuo para interpretação via TAC.

Authors: Ferlin Edson Pedro , Rezende Denis Alcides
Published: May 2019

No contexto da Cidade Digital Estratégica, destacam-se as Smart Cities que são cidades que utilizam Tecnologias de Informação para facilitar o desempenho dos serviços públicos, reduzir custos e potencializar o contato entre cidadãos e governo. O Big Data pode ser a resposta para que governos consigam manipular os grandes conjuntos de informações geradas a partir da digitalização da vida social. O objetivo é avaliar aplicações de Smart Cities sob a ótica da incorporação do Big Data na gestão de serviços e na tomada de decisões. A metodologia da pesquisa utilizada é o estudo de caso das aplicações Smart City e foi utilizada a abordagem quantitativa, envolvendo a análise sobre os dados de aplicações Smart City. Os resultados auferidos destacam a importância dos sistemas Big Data para aplicações Smart Cities. A conclusão reitera que os casos de Smart Cities são pontuais e a análise de Big Data ainda não faz parte do desenho de políticas das cidades aparecendo também como forma de melhorar planos já estabelecidos em cidades.

Published: May 2019

O presente artigo teve como objetivo realizar analisar os efeitos da concentração, dependência e relacionamento com fornecedores sobre a facilidade de reposição de itens. Conforme observado na literatura, a possibilidade de substituição de um produto ou serviço está relacionado com aspectos relacionados à presença destes substitutos no mercado, que podem atender plenamente, tendo em vista aspectos como preço e desempenho do produto podem ser levados em consideração na decisão de substituição. Tendo em vista o exposto, foi utilizada a regressão logística como técnica estatística, tendo como base dados análises realizadas em uma instituição financeira brasileira. Os resultados encontrados indicam que existe baixa probabilidade de mudança no perfil quanto à facilidade de reposição dos itens que são comprados para o funcionamento da instituição. Conclui-se, portanto, que é possível efetuar a troca de fornecedor, quando for necessário, tendo em vista os resultados apresentados e adicionalmente, os resultados indicam que a estratégia de negociação juntos aos fornecedores pode ser alterada.
Management of Pain in Opioid Addicted Patients: An Education Plan for Psychiatric Nurses
Authors: Parker Janice M.
Published: May 2019

Background: Identified on an acute care behavioral health unit has been a gap in nursing education and knowledge about opioid addiction and pain management. Nurses are often frustrated that there seems to be no clear way to manage acute pain in individuals suffering with opioid addiction. Because of difficult behavior sometimes displayed in those with opioid addiction, nurses may be prone to attitudes that reflect bias on their part when administering care. The psychiatric nurses need to learn about the disease model of addiction so its premise can be shared with the opioid addicted patients and their families. Purpose: The purpose of this proposal is to create a plan to teach the Behavioral Health nurses about opioid addiction and management of acute pain to help those afflicted with opioid addiction. Plan: The plan for addressing the gap includes education about opioid addiction, the barriers presented by stigma and bias, and the use of opioid replacement therapy to manage acute pain in those with opioid addiction. Patient education will focus on addiction as a disease and the impact of stigma on those with the disease. Implementation: Implementation of the project will include the development of two classes about management of acute pain in opioid addicted patients emphasizing education of the nurse and patient as the prime solution to this dilemma. The classes will stress the need to model conversations with psychiatric physicians to develop strategies to manage acute pain in patients with opioid addiction. Conclusion: Opioid replacement therapy seems to be the only answer for individuals in need of rehabilitation to end their burden of addiction. It should be accessible to any person with addiction to opioids in every healthcare setting.
