Resumo: Este artigo objetiva caracterizar as internações por condições sensíveis à atenção primária (ICSAP), identificar fatores associados e explorar o impacto sobre elas do fechamento de um hospital, entre residentes de Itaboraí, um município com elevadas taxas de ICSAP no Estado do Rio de Janeiro, Brasil, alimentando o debate sobre o uso indiscriminado do indicador para inferências acerca da expansão e qualidade da atenção primária. O estudo foi baseado em dados do Sistema de Informações Hospitalares do Sistema Único de Saúde. Associações entre a ocorrência de ICSAP com variáveis demográficas e inerentes aos hospitais foram analisadas com o teste χ2. Modelos de regressão logística averiguaram o comportamento das ICSAP ano a ano. As internações mais frequentes foram por insuficiência cardíaca, asma, gastroenterites, doença pulmonar obstrutiva crônica e diabetes mellitus. Suas chances de ocorrência foram maiores para o sexo masculino, pardos, nos extremos de idade e em hospitais privados e filantrópicos. A evolução das taxas de ICSAP no decorrer dos anos foi influenciada pelo fechamento de um hospital, sugerindo cautela na sua atribuição à melhoria da qualidade da atenção primária.

Published: April 2017

Resumo O artigo tem por objetivos avaliar a estrutura de creches públicas e o perfil antropométrico de crianças do município de Campina Grande, Paraíba. Estudo transversal que envolveu 793 crianças assistidas em creches. Contemplaram-se informações para caracterizar as creches (estrutura relacionada à capacidade de atendimento à demanda e à de processamento da alimentação escolar, regime de acolhida, zona de localização) e o estado antropométrico das crianças (Estatura/Idade, Peso/Estatura). Menores escores-Z de Estatura/Idade e Peso/Estatura apresentaram-se nas crianças que frequentavam creches com maior número de crianças por funcionário, em regimes de acolhida de tempo parcial e localizadas na zona rural. As crianças que conviviam em salas de aula e em salas de descanso com maior número de crianças apresentaram, também, menores escores-Z de Estatura/Idade. Constatam-se problemas na estrutura das creches relacionados à capacidade de recursos humanos para prestar atenção às crianças e aos modos de convivência (aglomeração), os quais podem marcar diferenças no estado nutricional. Por sua vez, a frequência à creche em tempo integral e a urbanização predispõem positivamente o crescimento das crianças.
RELATIVE COMPETITIVENESS OF GOOSEGRASS BIOTYPES AND SOYBEAN CROPS
Authors: FRANCO JADER JOB , AGOSTINETTO DIRCEU , LANGARO ANA CLAUDIA , PERBONI LAIS TESSARI , VARGAS LEANDRO
Published: April 2017

ABSTRACT The goosegrass (Eleusine indica (L.) Gaertn) is an annual plant that has a low-level resistance to glyphosate (LLRG), resulting in control failure in genetically modified soybean crops for resistance to this herbicide. Alleles related to resistance may cause changes in the plant biotype, such as inferior competitive ability. Thus, the objective of this work was to evaluated the competitive ability of soybean crops and susceptible and resistant (LLRG) goosegrass biotypes. Replacement series experiments were conducted with soybean crops and goosegrass biotypes. The ratios of soybean to susceptible or resistant (LLRG) goosegrass plants were 100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75 and 0:100, with a total population of 481 plants m-2. The leaf area, plant height and shoot dry weight were evaluated at 40 days after emergence of the soybean crops and weeds. The soybean crop had superior competitive ability to the susceptible and resistant (LLRG) goosegrass biotypes. The soybean crop showed similar competitive ability in both competitions, either with the susceptible or resistant (LLRG) goosegrass biotypes. The intraspecific competition was more harmful to the soybean crop, while the interspecific competition caused greater damage to the goosegrass biotypes competing with the soybean crop.

Resumo O artigo procura reconstruir as posições de membros do Instituto de Pesquisa Social em uma série de conferências levadas a cabo em 1941 durante seu exílio nos Estados Unidos a respeito da caracterização do presente histórico, marcado pelo nacional-socialismo, pelo sistema soviético e pelo capitalismo norte-americano. Em seguida, busca apontar de que maneira Dialética do esclarecimento, de Max Horkheimer e Theodor Adorno, responde às mesmas questões que suscitaram o debate de 1941, mas a partir já de um ponto de vista distinto, nomeadamente o de uma crítica do processo civilizatório como forma de dar conta do horror e da barbárie.
"Darse un gustito", cocinar y comer en familia. Villa La Tela, Córdoba, Argentina
Authors: Huergo Juliana
Published: April 2017

Resumen El objetivo de este trabajo consistió en reconstruir la gramática culinaria de las cocinas familiares de Villa La Tela, Córdoba, Argentina. Se realizó una investigación cualitativa desde una matriz de lectura materialista e interpretativista. Las técnicas utilizadas fueron: recetario viajero, encuentros expresivo-creativos y entrevistas semi-estructuradas. El análisis de las fuentes primarias se realizó mediante la teoría fundamentada. La construcción analítica de la gramática culinaria familiar aquí propuesta presenta cuatro dimensiones relacionales: Carta de menús familiares (Comidas/bebidas frecuentes, Comidas in-imaginables de existencia, Comidas que generan curiosidad de ser probadas, Comidas consideradas no-comidas, Comidas que se extrañan, Sus modificaciones); Cocinero (Transmisión de los haceres/saberes culinarios, Rol asumido al cocinar, Criterios para elegir el menú, Sensibilidades asociadas al cocinar, Normativa impartida); Comensales (Niños como destinatarios, Adultos como destinatarios); La situación de compartir el espacio-tiempo de comer (Con un nos-Otros, Con un-Otro de clase, Significados del compartir la comida). Más allá de habitar un escenario de pobreza estructural, las familias vivencian la gramática culinaria como estandarte de lucha de su historia alimentaria-nutricional, implementarla es "darse un gustito". Además, aparece el cocinar como vía de escape de lo real dando rienda suelta a la mixtura perfecta entre la creatividad y el afecto.

ABSTRACT Objective To determine the correlations between coping strategies, depression, stress levels and pain perception in patients with endometriosis. Methods This prospective and exploratory study included 171 women undergoing treatment for endometriosis between April and August 2014. The questionnaires used were Brief COPE, Beck Depression Inventory, Lipp’s Stress Symptom Inventory for Adults and Visual Analogue Scale. Clinical data were collected from electronic medical records. Results Patients with endometriosis who used positive coping strategies had better adaptation to stress (p<0.004) and less depression (p<0.004). The presence and intensity of depression, stress and acyclic pelvic pain were directly associated (p<0.05). The intensity of dysmenorrhea was associated with the degree of depression (p<0.001), whereas acyclic pelvic pain was associated with the degree of depression (p<0.001), stress level (p<0.001) and stress type (p<0.001). Conclusion We found a positive association between coping, depression levels, type and levels of stress and pain intensity in patients with endometriosis. The use of maladaptive coping strategies focused on emotion is correlated with increase in depression and stress.
Influence of coarse aggregate on shear resistance of self-consolidating concrete beams
Authors: SAVARIS G. , PINTO R. C. A.
Published: April 2017

Abstract Self-consolidating concrete is characterized by its high flowability, which can be achieved with the addition of superplasticizer and the reduction of the amount and size of coarse aggregates in the concrete mix. This high flowability allows the concrete to properly fill the formwork without any mechanical vibration. The reduction in volume and particle size of the coarse aggregates may result in lower shear strength of beams due to a reduced aggregate interlock. Therefore, an experimental investigation was conducted to evaluate the influence of the reduction in the volume fraction and the nominal size of coarse aggregate on concrete shear strength of self-consolidating beams. Six concrete mixes were produced, four self-consolidating and two conventionally vibrated. A total of 18 beams, with flexural reinforcement but without shear reinforcement were cast. These beams were tested under a four-point loading condition. Their failure modes, cracking patterns and shear resistances were evaluated. The obtained shear resistances were compared to the theoretical values given by the ACI-318 and EC-2 codes. The results demonstrated a lower shear resistance of self-consolidating concrete beams, caused mainly due to the reduced aggregate size.

Offrir une fleur, offrir sa philia
Authors: Kei Nikolina
Published: April 2017

Résumé Il existe dans la céramique attique du VIe et du Ve siècle av. J.-C., un certain nombre d’images où le geste d’offrir une fleur à l’autre se présente comme un moyen de le saluer tout en lui exprimant son estime, sa reconnaissance et son affection. Objet de plaisir à la fois visuel, olfactif et tactile, la fleur est un don qui ravit, capable de nouer ou de renforcer des rapports d’amitié. Ainsi, à l’intérieur des scènes de départ, de rencontre, de retrouvailles et même de réconciliation, la présence discrète de la fleur véhicule-t-elle les notions grecques de philia (amitié) et de charis dans toutes ses déclinaisons: charme, générosité, plaisir.
If I were a Zombie by K. Inglis
Authors: Voss Tina
Published: April 2017

Inglis, Kate. If I were a Zombie. Illustrated by Eric Orchard. Nimbus Publishing, 2016.This book is a collection of poems written and illustrated by Canadians. Each poem introduces the reader to a new creature or monster with a picture that looks drawn by a child. The poems detail how the creature or monsters would behave through the mind of a child. Some examples of the monsters or creatures in this book are a giant, vampire, alien, goblin, mermaid and a zombie. The rhythmic prose of each stanza adds to the playful nature of each creature.The illustrations in this book are bright and vibrant with bold colours such as green, brown and blue. They are consistent and an integral part of the picture book, providing visual support for the text. The illustrator’s use of line and alternating black and white text, add to the mysteriousness of these creatures.I immediately picked up this book because of the captivating jacket design with the large, inviting title and quirky zombie picture. Yet the jacket design, both the cover and the teaser, misled me to believe that the book would be about zombies. Rather, the theme of the book revolves around a child’s imagination and what they would do if they were a certain creature or monster. The content of the book would be very enjoyable as a read aloud for a younger child, yet some text may be not easily understood by children of any age unfamiliar with our North American culture with words used such as kayak, Frisbee or cauldron.Recommended: 3 out of 4 starsReviewer: Tina VossTina is an elementary school teacher currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Education.  When she is not reading any book she can get her hands on, she is walking her dog Phill.
In Celebration of the Foundation of “International Journal of Automation Technology”
Authors: Arai Tamio
Published: April 2017

It is my great honor to extend my sincere congratulation on the new journal on automation technology in 21st century.

The assembly automation started in the 1960's after machining had been mechanized. It took a long period to mechanize workers’ operation and automate assembly lines. In these decades, computers exploded their ability and robots gained intelligence. The diversification of the customer requirement, however, has changed automated lines into manufacturing systems with low flexibility. Instead of automation, cell manufacturing system by human workers turned dominant.

Hereafter, the automation will become important again. A new age of automation comes with intelligent use of sensors; technology of image processing an force feedback enables automatic machine not only adaptable to the change of environment but also cooperative with human workers. Applications of automation technology will extend from manufacturing industries to service sectors, where IRT (Information and Robot Technology) is required to support to deal with physical objects and to generate values for each individual.

I hope the journal advances automation technology in various novel fields such as bio-engineering, human support technology and service engineering.

Published: April 2017

Objectives. To examine trends in and correlates of fighting and violence among youths from the 3 largest racial/ethnic groups in the United States.

Methods. We derived race/ethnicity-specific prevalence estimates for fighting, group fighting, and attacks with intent to harm from the National Survey on Drug Use and Health, a population-based study of youths aged 12 to 17 years.

Results. The prevalence of youth fighting and violence decreased significantly in all racial/ethnic groups over the study period (2002–2014), dropping from a high of 33.6% in 2003 to a low of 23.7% in 2014, reflecting a 29% decrease in the relative proportion of young people involved in these behaviors. However, there was also a clear severity gradient in which year-by-year point estimates for fighting and violence were consistently highest among non-Hispanic African American youths, followed by Hispanic and then non-Hispanic White youths.

Conclusions. Although fighting and violence are on the decline among young people in general and across racial/ethnic subgroups, there is a stable pattern of disparities in youth involvement in these behaviors.
Restrictions of Hepatitis C Treatment for Substance-Using Medicaid Patients: Cost Versus Ethics
Authors: Liao Joshua M. , Fischer Michael A.
Published: April 2017

Medicaid programs provide health insurance coverage for many patients with hepatitis C, a public health problem for which effective but very expensive treatments are now available. Facing constrained budgets, most states adopted prior authorization criteria for sofosbuvir, the first of these agents.

Using fee-for-service utilization data from 42 Medicaid programs in 2014, we found that strict behavioral criteria—those that limited coverage on the basis of drug or alcohol use and included specific abstinence or treatment requirements—were associated with significantly less spending on sofosbuvir.

Despite the potential cost savings, such criteria raise troubling questions in terms of public health as well as medical ethics, clinical evidence, and potentially federal law. Decision-makers should reject these requirements in Medicaid coverage policy and pursue national and state policy strategies to balance short-term budgetary realities with long-term public health benefits.

men. In it God greets sense and human feelings, teaches monotheism to man, to purify man with a variety of worship, showing man the things that can bring
good and welfare of the individual and social life of man, guiding people to the
religion of the sublime that manifest themselves, develop personality humans, as well as increasing the level of human beings to human perfection. Thus, man
can realize the happiness in the world and the hereafter. The Qur'an also
encourages people to reflect about himself, the wonders of creation and the
accuracy of its creation. Therefore, the introduction of man against himself can
deliver to ma'rifatillah The Qur'an also contains clues about human nature and
the nature of the psychological state associated with the formation of a true
picture of human personality, the main motivation that drives human behavior,
and the factors which underlying harmony and perfection of the human
personality and the realization of human mental health.

Process monitoring of laser remote cutting of carbon fiber reinforced plastics by means of reflecting laser radiation
Authors: Oberlander M. , Bartsch K. , Schulte C. , Canisius M. , Hergoss P. , Herzog D. , Emmelmann C.
Published: April 2017

Lightweight materials such as carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) are becoming increasingly important. In order to make CFRP attractive for use in mass production, production costs have to be reduced significantly. The method of laser remote cutting represents a wear-free and fast alternative to conventional methods. Because of the inhomogeneity of CFRP laminates, a varying number of exposures is necessary along the cutting contour to obtain a complete separation. This paper provides a method for measuring the reflected laser radiation in each exposure by means of a photodiode. An algorithm detects the complete separation and terminates the process after the exposure. Thus, it is possible to optimize the energy and time efficiency of the remote process.

ABSTRACT

ObjectivesWe sought to identify the most expensive hospitalized individuals in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan in fiscal year 2012/13, and determine the primary cause of their high use of health services. Our aim was to identify health problems that can be prevented or better managed in a non-hospital health care setting. Comorbid conditions are an important and confounding covariate in this population and so we used multiple correspondence analysis (MCA) to investigate the association of these conditions with each other and the most responsible diagnosis for each hospitalization. MCA is a multivariable descriptive statistical technique that displays the relationship between categorical variables in 2-dimensional graphical form.

ApproachWe identified the most expensive 5% of people hospitalized between 01APR2012 and 31MAR2013. Hospital costs accounted for the majority of costs, but physician, drug, long-term care, and home care costs were added. Comorbid conditions in any of the 25 hospital diagnostic fields were identified and grouped into categories based upon ICD-10-CA subcategories. For example, category 1 was ICD-10-CA codes F10-F19: Mental and behavioural disorders due to psychoactive drug use, while category 2 was ICD-10-CA codes F20-F29: Schizophrenia, schizotypal, and delusional disorders. SAS™ v9.3 was used to conduct MCA and generate graphs displaying the correlation between each comorbid condition category, where the distance of each dot from the other represents the strength of the association between the disease categories (i.e., diseases that are correlated cluster together.) The frequency of each category of comorbid condition was represented by the size of the dots on the graph (e.g., the more people with the disease, the larger the dot.) Categories of comorbid conditions were redefined based upon data findings and clinical expertise.

ResultsThree patient groups emerged as being amenable to intervention and thus cost savings, specifically (1) individuals of advanced age who are no longer able to live at home and are hospitalized while waiting for a bed in a long-term care facility, (2) individuals with a mental health and/or addiction problem, and (3) individuals who experienced medical harm during their time in hospital.

ConclusionMCA is a valuable graphical tool that is easy to learn and, in conjunction with other statistical techniques, can be used to elucidate the relationship between complex correlated categorical variables.
The ADRN and the public’s voice: making administrative data available for research while gaining public trust

ABSTRACT

BackgroundThis paper presents the way the Administrative Data Research Network (ADRN) has incorporated the results of public consultation into the core of its operations and policies.

Administrative data are a rich source of information, but underused in social and economic research. In the past it has been very difficult to gain access to these datasets. The ADRN is a UK-wide initiative, funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) in 2013. The Network facilitates secure research access to linked, de-identified administrative data to enable real-world analysis that can benefit society. Administrative data research can provide a solid evidence base for policy makers to evaluate the results of active policies or uncover new ways to tackle social problems.

ApproachUsing government data for research is still a sensitive topic for the public, and rightly so. Amidst growing concerns about privacy and data security, the use of administrative data is a potentially controversial move. At the beginning of the project, the ESRC commissioned a nation-wide public consultation to gauge understanding of social research and reactions to the use of administrative data in research.

ResultsThe ADRN used the results of this consultation to incorporate mechanisms for lay participation as well as accountability towards the public into its governance, and makes a case for engaging the public without compromising the scientific integrity of the research it supports.

Funded by the Economic & Social Research Council, the Administrative Data Research Network, set up as part of the UK Government’s Big Data initiative, is a UK-wide partnership between universities, government bodies, national statistics authorities and the wider research community. www.adrn.ac.uk
Teenage pregnancy: The impact of maternal adolescent childbearing and older sister’s teenage
Authors: Wall-Wieler Elizabeth , Roos Leslie , Nickel Nathan

ABSTRACTBackgroundRisk factors for teenage pregnancy are linked to many factors, including a family history of teenage pregnancy. This research examines whether a mother’s teenage childbearing or an older sister’s teenage pregnancy more strongly predicts teenage pregnancy in a younger sister. MethodsThis study used linkable administrative databases housed at the Manitoba Centre for Health Policy (MCHP). The original cohort consisted of 17,115 women born in Manitoba between April 1, 1979 and March 31, 1994, who stayed in the province until at least their 20th birthday, had at least one older sister, and had no missing values on key variables. Propensity score matching (1:2) was used to create balanced cohorts for two logistic regression models; one examining the impact of an older sister’s teenage pregnancy on a younger sister's teenage pregnancy and the other analyzing the effect of the mother’s teenage childbearing on a younger sister's teenage pregnancy odds.ResultsThe adjusted odds of becoming pregnant between ages 14 and 19 for teens with at least one older sister having a teenage pregnancy were 3.06 (99% CI 2.53 - 3.64) times higher than for women whose older sister(s) did not have a teenage pregnancy. Teenage daughters of mothers who had their first child before age 20 had 1.51 (99% CI 1.29 - 1.78) times higher odds of pregnancy than those whose mothers had their first child after age 19. Educational achievement was adjusted for in a sub-population examining the odds of pregnancy between ages 16 and 19. After this adjustment, the odds of teenage pregnancy for teens with at least one older sister who had a teenage pregnancy were reduced to 2.34 (99% CI 1.92-2.86) and the odds of pregnancy for teen daughters of teenage mothers were reduced to 1.35 (99% CI 1.15-1.59).ConclusionGiven that an older sister’s teenage pregnancy has a much stronger impact than a mother’s teenage pregnancy, this study suggests social modeling to be a stronger risk factor for teenage pregnancy than living in an adverse environment created by a mother's adolescent childbearing. This study contributes to understanding of the broader topic “who is influential about what” within the family.
Effect of incomplete registration at general practices on the annual prevalence of treated asthma

ABSTRACTBackgroundAnnual prevalence of 'treated asthma' can be estimated using primary care routine data. However, the denominator may include people with incomplete registration at general practices (GP) in the year of estimation. Patients with incomplete registrations who actually take medications but have no recorded prescriptions represent false-negative cases leading to underestimated prevalence.

ObjectivesTo estimate the effect of incomplete GP registrations on the annual prevalence of treated asthma in Wales.

MethodsUsing the GP dataset of the Secure Anonymised Information Linkage (SAIL) Databank, we created a denominator of people who lived in Wales and registered at Welsh GPs for any period during 2010. For the uncorrected prevalence, the numerator included people who ever had a recorded asthma diagnosis and any current recorded asthma prescriptions. For the corrected prevalence, we estimated the number of false-negatives and added them to the numerator. To do that, we calculated, for asthma patients with incomplete registrations and no recorded prescriptions, the sum of probabilities of having prescriptions if they had complete registrations. We estimated the absolute and relative increases in the prevalence at national and local authority levels as well as for the subpopulation with incomplete registration.

ResultsThe denominator included 2,221,967 people, of whom 94.8% had complete GP registration in 2010. Without correction, the numerator included 132,439 patients giving a prevalence of 5.96% [95% CI 5.93-5.99]. By adding estimated 1,801 false-negative cases to the numerator, the adjusted prevalence is 6.04% [95% CI 6.01-6.07] with absolute and relative increases of 0.08% and 1.36%, respectively. At the local authority level, the relative increase ranged from 0.47% for Blaenau Gwent to 3.94% for Monmouthshire. Among the subpopulation with incomplete registration (5.1%), the prevalence increased by 68.0% from 2.32% to 3.91%.

ConclusionIn Wales, which has a highly stable population, incomplete GP registration has negligible effect on the prevalence of treated asthma at a national level, although it was more significant for sub-regions with less stable populations. This correction method could be useful for more accurate estimation of asthma burden and the prevalence of active disease in highly dynamic populations.

ABSTRACTObjectivesAn accurate picture of infant mortality informs society of its social progress. It is a key indicator of how effective public health policies and programs are in caring for the most vulnerable in our society. Currently, at the population level, Victorian data on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander births and deaths are excluded from Australian vital statistics. The Victorian Aboriginal Mortality Study aimed to provide a more complete and accurate population profile of Aboriginal births in Victoria using population data linkage of Victorian statutory and administrative datasets. ApproachTwo population statutory datasets, the Victorian Perinatal Data Collection (VPDC) and Victorian Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages (RBDM) were linked, using probabilistic matching with mother’s name and surname, child’s date of birth and sex, for all births that occurred in Victoria between 1988 and 2008, inclusive to more accurately ascertain births to mothers and fathers who identified as Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander (hereafter respectfully ‘Aboriginal’).ResultsOver 1.34 million files, reporting births between 1988 and 2008, were linked. However, due to data integrity issues for Indigenous identification prior to 1998, the years between 1999 and 2008 only were used in the development of the birth cohort. Matching the VPDC with the RBDM resulted in identifying an additional 4,333 live births where mother and/or father identified as Aboriginal, representing an 87% increase in the number of births previously recorded as Aboriginal by the VPDC*. The largest increase (186%) in the number of births where mother and/or father identified as Aboriginal births was observed within the Victorian metropolitan areas. ConclusionThis is the first time that the VPDC and RBDM birth data were linked in Victoria. The matched birth information established a more complete population profile of Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander births. These data will provide a more accurate baseline to enhance the Victorian and Australian governments’ ability to plan services, allocate resources and evaluate funded activities aimed at eliminating disparity experienced by Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander peoples. Importantly, it has established a more accurate denominator from which to calculate Aboriginal infant mortality rates for Victoria, Australia.

*Until 2009, the mother’s Indigenous identification only was recorded in the VPDC
