Transtorno de estresse pós-traumático em ex-combatentes
Authors: Lima Paula Rafaelle Alves de
Published: September 2021

Os primeiros estudos sobre manifestações psiquiátricas em indivíduos expostos a eventos traumáticos foram realizados com veteranos de guerra. Em 1980, com a publicação da terceira edição do Manual Diagnóstico e Estatístico dos Distúrbios Mentais (DSM III), tais alterações foram conceituadas como uma entidade nosológica, o transtorno de estresse pós-traumático (TEPT). Já em sua quinta edição, o DSM-V lista uma série de sintomas de TEPT dividido em quatros grupos: reexperimentação; esquiva/evitação; alterações negativas persistentes em cognições e humor; excitabilidade aumentada. Quanto a fisiopatologia, observa-se um aumento na sensibilidade do eixo hipotálamo-hipófise-adrenal (HHA), resultando na diminuição do cortisol plasmático e urinário. O tratamento medicamentoso visa a minimizar não só os sintomas nucleares descritos, mas também efeitos secundários como insônia, condições comórbidas e baixa resistência ao estresse. Em paralelo, atualmente há evidências sobre a eficácia da Terapia Cognitiva Comportamental (TCC). Dessa forma, destaca-se a importância da produção de estudos sobre TEPT, principalmente em âmbito nacional, tanto no meio civil quanto com militares.

Published: September 2021

This paper described the application of Citrus microcarpa extract as bio-immunostimulator in red hybrid tilapia against Edwardsiellosis infection. Edwardsiellosis due to Edwardsiella tarda is one of the well-known bacterial diseases in aquaculture which leads to significant economic losses. The increasing antibiotic resistant cases among pathogenic bacteria led to many commercial antibiotics no longer effective in controlling bacterial diseases in aquaculture. Hence, in the present study was carried out to evaluate potential of C. microcarpa extract as immunostimulator against Edwardsiellosis infection in red hybrid tilapia. Comparison in terms of cumulative mortalities and antibody response against E. tarda among group of fish received C. microcarpa extract at different concentrations (CM1-1, 1 g kg-1 of fish; CM-2, 2 g kg-1 of fish and CM-4, 4 g kg-1 of fish) and group of fish received no medicated commercial feed (control) was carried out in the present study. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to monitor antibody response of fish that received medicated feed. The results of the present study showed that the values of antibody response against E. tarda of fish after seven days received C. microcarpa extract (CM-1, 0.113 ± 0.02 OD; CM-2, 0.14 ± 0.02 OD; CM-4, 0.173 ± 0.03 OD) were significantly higher (P < 0.05) compared to fish from group of control (0.0 OD). Whereas cumulative mortality of fish from group of control (53.3 ± 11.5 %) was significantly higher (P < 0.05) compared to fish from all of groups received C. microcarpa extract (CM-1, 13.3 ± 5.8 %; CM-2, 13.3 ± 5.8 % and CM-4, 6.7 ± 5.8 %). The results indicated the potential of C. microcarpa extract as immunostimulator in finfish culture.

Phoenic dactylifera (date) is a species of flowering plants in the family of Arecaceae. Date seeds are considered as a waste from many processing that produced plants pitted date, confectionery date syrup and date itself. Currently, the seeds are used mainly for animal feed in the cattle and chicken industry. In 2004, about 863,000 tonnes of date seeds are produced out of 6.9 million tonnes date. Tenderness is the major concern that affecting consumer acceptance of beef in meat industry. This study was carried out in order to investigate the effects of the bioactive compound extracted from date seed as a tenderizing agent in meat. Extraction of date seeds used a different method of extraction (Soxhlet and Maceration). The application of extracted on knuckle part of beef were performed and papain was used as a positive control and followed by the sensory evaluation. The analysis of cooked meat was performed in order to analyze the physico-chemical properties of date seeds extract. The result from the study revealed that the aqueous extract (maceration techniques) gave the best percentage of the total yield recovery with 28.44%. The physico-chemical properties of cooked meat showed the reducing of pH value after cooking. Meanwhile for the cooking yield, result showed that almost 86% of water losses during cooking for aqueous extract and positive control and 96% for negative control. According to the sensory evaluation of the cooked meat, scoring test and hedonic test were performed using One Way Anova.

Notes: Children, autonomy and statements: The need for a bright-line rule
Authors: Lutchman Salona
Published: September 2021

Currently, a child cannot provide a statement without parental or guardian consent. This limits the child’s right to participate fully in matters which affect the child. Indeed, it also impacts the fact-finding process of an investigation. In terms of international conventions and the Children’s Act 38 of 2005, child participation is a cornerstone of children’s rights. This note proposes that South African law recognise adolescent autonomy — specifically, an adolescent’s competence to provide a statement in matters affecting the child. An adolescent’s stage of growth (physical and mental) makes the child capable of understanding the consequences of such conduct, and the child’s developing agency and cognitive abilities mean that the child may wish to do so. The note proposes that the law recognise the autonomy of a child who is twelve years or older to provide an unassisted statement in legal fora.
Blood and breath alcohol test results: Uncertainty at the interface of science and law
Authors: Laurens J B , Carstens P A , Laurens J B , Curlewis L G
Published: September 2021

Alcohol is well known for its ability to impair human faculties, which creates risks when driving a vehicle or when performing safety- and risk-sensitive tasks in workplaces. The article aims to highlight some shortcomings in the legal-scientific approach for alcohol testing in South Africa. In particular, we investigate the measurement uncertainty of blood alcohol test results, which is critical in adjudicating over-the-limit cases. The South African regulatory framework for alcohol testing in the criminal- and private-law environments is examined from an analytical due-process perspective, considering measurement uncertainty and other well-established scientific principles which are essential at the interface of science and law. Special attention is paid to the National Road Traffic Amendment Bill, which aims to decrease the alcohol limit to zero. We found that the measurement uncertainty concept has not yet been received into the South African legal system, even though it is a well-established scientific principle. We suggest changes to the current alcohol legislation to accommodate the measurement uncertainty principle and the related likelihood ratio, which we believe could assist in quantifying the odds of compliance. In particular, we believe that our suggestions regarding quantification and reporting of measurement uncertainty can assist the courts and tribunals to avoid false-positive errors that may have a devastating effect on innocent subjects.
On equating ‘mays’ with ‘musts’: When can a discretionary power be interpreted as a mandatory one?
Authors: Draga Lisa
Published: September 2021

In this article I investigate when the otherwise permissive term ‘may’ in an empowering provision can be interpreted as imposing a duty on the recipient of that power to act. In the first part, I examine our courts’ pre-democratic approach to answering this question through an analysis of pre-democratic judgments. In particular, I scrutinise certain factors that the courts have traditionally relied on in this regard. Thereafter, I consider the present-day rules of statutory interpretation and its application to the may/must question. Next, I analyse the Constitutional Court’s approach to determining when the use of ‘may’ to confer a power through statute can be interpreted as requiring the power be exercised. I undertake an analysis of a dissection of relevant Constitutional Court judgments. These judgments are dissected for purposes of illustrating the continued relevance of the traditional factors that were employed before democracy. Finally, I focus on the may/must question in the typical public-law context of this interpretative exercise. I examine potential grounds of review where the holder of the power has failed or refused to execute a duty attached to permissive language. I also consider separation-of-powers concerns that may likely arise.

Published: September 2021

İ’câzu’l-Kur’ân, Kur’ân ilimleri içerisinde önemli bir yere sahiptir. Bu ilim dalı Hz. Peygamber’in en büyük mucizesi olan Kur’ân’ın i’câz vecihlerini konu edinmektedir. Daha açık bir ifadeyle Kur’an’ın kendi benzerini getirmek hususunda meydan okuduğu dönemin ediplerini hangi yönleriyle aciz bıraktığını incelemektedir. Söz konusu yönler arasında üzerinde en çok görüş serdedilenlerden biri de sarfe iddiasıdır. İlk olarak Mutezile arasında ortaya çıkan ve tartışılan sarfe, Ehl-i Sünnet âlimleri arasında da ihtilaflı bir meseledir. Bazı âlimler sarfeyi Kur’ân’ın i’câzının bir veçhesi olarak değerlendirirken bazı âlimler ise söz konusu değerlendirmeye karşı çıkmışlardır. Bu çalışma Ehl-i Sünnet âlimlerinin sarfeye bakışlarını ortaya koymak amacı taşımaktadır. Bir yandan sarfeye olumlu yaklaşanların fikirlerini ve bunların saiklerini belirlemek diğer yandan da mezkûr iddiaya karşı çıkanların gerekçelerini beyan etmek çalışmanın esas gayesini teşkil etmektedir. Bu bağlamda konu hakkında görüş beyan eden Sünnî ilim adamlarının sarfeye dair düşüncelerine yer verilmiş ve değerlendirmeye tabi tutulmuştur.

Uvulopalatopharynoplasty and modified uvulopalatopharyngoplasty in ronchopathy and OSA: a retrospective analysis of the patient profile

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome affects 4% of the male and 2% of the female population. The etiology of OSA is multifactorial and surgery is often considered.

This retrospective study identifies the population that has had surgery based on general and clinical data. 132 patients could be included. Secondly, it is also examined whether there is an added value of sleep endoscopy in the investigation, as whether there is a correlation between the data of a sleep endoscopy and the clinical data.

There is a majority of male patients (77.36%), with the average age at surgery being 43.5 ± 0.8 years. This population has a mean BMI-value of 27.7 ± 4.1. The symptomatology, clinical features and the results from DISE examination were included in the database. This indicates a particular predominance of velar and oropharyngeal collapse in this population. Finally, it has been checked whether the data obtained during the clinical study correlate with those from the DISE study. This shows that a sleep endoscopy is an indispensable factor in the diagnostic process.

This study indicates that patients which had an uvulopalatopharyngoplasty, mainly had an obstruction at the velar and oropharyngeal level during sleep endoscopy. An often normal clinical examination of these patients illustrates the importance of a sleep endoscopy. An assessment based solely on clinical examination and polysomnography are insufficient to improve the indication for surgery and to predict the outcome of surgery.

Published: September 2021

The lack of safe drinking water is a major problem in many areas. Most of which located within the range of high solar sun and the enormous potential of solar energy can be exploited to turn salt water into drinking water. The most economical and easy way to achieve this goal is to use solar distillation. Two low-cost "Single Slope" solar distillers were designed to examine the impact of adding concentrates and reflectors on daily yield and efficiency and then compare the results. Results obtained from practical experiments have shown that solar distillers with internal and external reflectors made of mirrors have increased in efficiency by 6% and 12% when one liter and two liters of river water are added, respectively, from the distiller under the effect of the parabola concentrator. The daily yield was also (60 and 240) ml higher for the solar distiller, which contained both internal and external reflectors.

IMAGENS DO PASSADO, DA MEMÓRIA, DA CIDADE – SARTRE E FREUD DO ESCRITOR CATARINENSE SALIM MIGUEL
Authors: Kremer Natan Schmitz , Vaz Alexandre Fernandez
Published: September 2021

Tomando como chave de análise o passado, a memória e a cidade, buscamos discutir a afirmada influência de Sartre na trilogia Velhice, contos do livro de estreia de Salim Miguel, Velhice e Outros Contos (1951), publicado pela série editorial Edições Sul, impresso vinculado a Revista Sul, experimento modernista que se desenvolveu em Florianópolis entre 1948 e 1957. Na leitura dos contos percebemos uma cisão entre público e privado, o primeiro como lugar da angústia, aquele pertencente aos personagens, o segundo como da liberdade, aquele frequentado pelo narrador. Comparando a outros contos do compilado, observamos uma leitura pelo verso do Existencialismo, sem atinar à busca pelo lugar do ser, construindo sua estética sobre uma pergunta pela esfera urbana da cidade moderna; neste caso, o lugar do privado seria uma expressão do desajustamento dos “velhos”, nascidos ainda no século XIX, em detrimento de uma cidade cuja modernização é efervescente. Coloca-se em jogo uma educação dos sentidos na cidade, antes do que se poderia chamar de educação sentimental. No movimento, os contos de Salim Miguel parecem se aproximar mais de questões que envolvem a psicanálise de Freud e a literatura urbana, amalgamando a formação de uma esfera subjetiva moderna na Florianópolis de meados do século XX.
A NATUREZA, A “PERSEGUIÇÃO DO REAL” E A “FATALIDADE DO MAL” EM SOPHIA DE MELLO BREYNER ANDRESEN
Authors: Denubila Rodrigo Valverde
Published: September 2021

Focalizando a produção ensaística de Sophia de Mello Breyner Andresen, especificamente, o texto “Poesia e realidade”, bem como as seis artes poéticas, em especial, “Arte poética I” e “Arte poética III”, investiga-se a centralidade do olhar, da natureza e da realidade como mecanismos para evidenciar a “fatalidade do mal”, importante expressão andreseniana presente em “Arte poética III”. A leitura crítica de poemas retirados, em sua maioria, de Poesia e de Dual, mostra como a visibilidade, a natureza e o mal se apresentam enquanto temas-chave tanto da lírica, quanto dos ensaios da poeta. Neste itinerário reflexivo, retoma-se a fortuna crítica pelos textos de Eduardo Lourenço, Eduardo Prado Coelho, Maria Andresen de Sousa Tavares e Eucanaã Ferraz. Em relação ao mal e à realidade, dialoga-se com as ponderações de Étienne Borne, Clément Rosset e Peter Sloterdijk.
HISTÓRIA E MEMÓRIA EM LIMA BARRETO: RAÍZES DA SOCIEDADE BRASILEIRA EM CLARA DOS ANJOS
Authors: Da Silva José Lindomar
Published: September 2021

RESUMO: Este ensaio é o resultado de uma análise do romance Clara dos anjos, de Lima Barreto. A proposta consiste em retratar as raízes da sociedade brasileira entre o final do século XIX e início do século XX, resgatadas pela memória e história literária do referido escritor. O trabalho mostra as contradições pós-abolição da escravidão na Primeira República, destacando o abandono do negro em uma sociedade que principiava a modernizar-se importando receitas da Europa. O resultado é visto com nitidez na Capital da República, um Rio de Janeiro cosmético que enfeita o centro enquanto a população suburbana sofre as mazelas do esquecimento político-econômico. Nesse contexto é que a família dos Anjos, especialmente Clara, sendo mulher, negra e pobre sofre as asperezas da sua condição, numa sociedade preconceituosa, exploradora e autoritária.PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Lima Barreto. Literatura e sociedade. História e memória.
A INTERAÇÃO ROMÂNTICA COM A NATUREZA: WUTHERING HEIGHTS, DA ESCRITORA EMILY BRONTË, E STREAMER IN A SNOWSTORM E THE SHIPWRECK, DO PINTOR WILLIAM TURNER
Authors: Tokairin Tania Yumi
Published: September 2021

O presente artigo é um estudo interartes que tem por objetivo comparar duas produções inglesas de características românticas: o romance Wuthering Heights (O Morro Dos Ventos Uivantes, 1847), da escritora Emily Brontë (1818-1848), e as pinturas Streamer In A Snowstorm (Vapor Numa Tempestade De Neve, 1842) e The Shipwreck (O Naufrágio, 1805), de Joseph Mallord William Turner (1775-1851). Tomando como parâmetro metodológico uma pesquisa de origem comparativa, envolvendo a leitura de imagem e de texto literário, far-se-ão as análises das mencionadas pinturas criadas por William Turner e da prosa ficcional de Emily Brontë, deslindando a interação entre as suas respectivas criações com o tema da natureza, e pontuando, por conseguinte, o diálogo entre as obras enquanto representações importantes dentro do Romantismo inglês. Para a fundamentação teórico-crítica utilizamos estudos da área de literatura, artes visuais e filosofia, de autora e autores como: Márcia Cavendish Wanderley, Benedito Nunes, Anatol Rosenfeld, J. Guinsburg, Georges Bataille, E. H. Gombrich, Herbert Read, Friedrich Schelling e Michel Ribon.
MEMÓRIA, HISTÓRIA E LITERATURA: ESTRATÉGIAS DE CONSTRUÇÃO FICCIONAL E MANUTENÇÃO DA(S) IDENTIDADE(S) NEGRA(S) EM DUAS NARRATIVAS DA LITERATURA BRASILEIRA
Authors: Santos James Rios De Oliveira , Do Vale Rosiney Aparedecida Lopes
Published: September 2021

Este artigo objetiva compreender o papel da Memória e da História como estratégias de construção ficcional e como meios de manutenção da(s) identidade(s) dos personagens negros/as que compõem o plano diegético da narrativa infantojuvenil Sortes de Villamor, de Nilma Lacerda, e do conto “Negrinha”, de Monteiro Lobato. Ademais, verifica-se, neste trabalho, o modo como a literatura constitui-se e oferece-se como importante instrumento para a transmissão da cultura afro-brasileira, permitindo que a memória coletiva desse povo seja salvaguardado por intermédio desse veículo de comunicação discursiva.  Constitui o escopo teórico desta discussão, Michael Pollak (1992), Maurice Halbwachs (1990), Gregory Rabassa (1965), Regina Dalcastagnè (2008) dentre outros estudiosos que se debruçam sobre o assunto.
Análisis de mercado para la inserción internacional de Constelaciones Dedicadas de Satélites (DSC): El caso de Satellogic
Authors: Lattenero María Antonella
Published: September 2021

El objetivo principal del presente trabajo es realizar un estudio de mercado para la promoción del servicio satelital comercializado por la empresa Satellogic. El mismo, se trata de un servicio de imágenes satelitales llamado Dedicated Satellite Constellations, (DSC, por sus siglas en inglés), que esencialmente es un servicio que permite a gobiernos poner en marcha su propio programa de observación de la Tierra por una fracción del valor que costaría comprar un solo satélite, obteniendo el control exclusivo de su propia capacidad de recolección de datos sobre áreas designadas de interés.

La muestra de estudio fue tomada en base a los países que han hecho pública la inversión gubernamental en la industria espacial, comprendiendo un total de sesenta y tres países alrededor del mundo. Este conjunto de países ha sido analizado de forma individual y por bloques, siguiendo un marco común de análisis utilizando parámetros de estudios diseñados para medir el potencial de penetración de los mercados por medio de mapas de temperatura y análisis de clúster. De esta forma, el resultado obtenido es la identificación de los mercados a abordar comercialmente en el corto y mediano plazo.
Desglobalización: ¿Un camino en marcha?
Authors: Pronato José Alfredo
Published: September 2021

El Comercio Internacional siempre fue eje de controversia, la teoría económica desde sus inicios plantea diferentes formas sobre su funcionamiento, en los cuales ha tenidos momentos de auge y de achicamiento. El concepto de globalización siempre trajo adoradores y retractores. Hoy en día, a partir de la llegada del Coronavirus vuelven a surgir críticas sobre su forma de desarrollo y expansión.

Las medidas dispuestas tanto por Estados Unidas y Europa, bajo el lema del cuidado de la salud, la solvencia alimentaria y sanitaria, determinan la aceleración de posturas proteccionistas que permiten pensar en un resurgir de ciertas formas de producción de manera local. Entonces, ¿La producción volverá a ser local?, por supuesto que no. Hoy en día es imposible que se revierta todo lo hecho en los últimos 40 años. Pero la tecnología, la automatización, robótica e inteligencia artificial van a modelizar la forma de producción de los próximos años. Entonces, si bien no estamos ante una desglobalización, nos encontramos en una economía mundial más regionalizada, organizada en polos productivos existentes.
What can controllers and internal auditors do to support risk ownership?
Authors: van Staveren Martin
Published: September 2021

Over the years, many organisations adopted several types of Three Lines models for optimising risk management coordination and control. According to these models, first line risk ownership is required for routinely applying risk management in all of the organisation’s activities, which seems highly underdeveloped. From an exploratory and development research, which builds on conventional risk management approaches, three pragmatic suggestions are derived: (1) simplifying risk management by asking three specific OUD-questions about Objectives, Uncertainties and what to Do, (2) clarification of objectives at all organisational levels, and (3) connecting responsibility for objectives to risk responsibility. Routinely applying these suggestions by second line controllers and third line internal auditors may support first line risk ownership.
Op naar het eerste lustrum van Solvency II: een beschrijving van de uitkomsten
Authors: Doff René , Evink Wai-Chong
Published: September 2021

Sinds 2016 is Solvency II het toezichtsraamwerk voor verzekeraars. Solvency II vereist een nieuwe manier van waardering en risicometing. Daardoor verandert ook de solvabiliteitsratio. In dit artikel analyseren we op basis van openbare data de uitkomsten van Solvency II voor Nederlandse verzekeraars. We constateren dat de solvabiliteitsratio fors is gedaald door het nieuwe raamwerk. Daarnaast beschrijven we de samenstelling van de solvabiliteitseisen voor de sector als geheel, maar beschrijven we ook de verschillen tussen leven- en schadeverzekeraars.

This paper addresses a little piece of a lot more extensive undertaking looking at the connections between working class and migrant writing which will frame a piece of my thesis. I will discuss the employments of lingo, class struggle and interesting differences in these books from the 1950s – John Braine’s Room At the Top (1957), Alan Sillitoe’s Saturday Night and Sunday Morning (1958) and Sam Selvon’s The Lonely Londoners (1956). I’ll begin with reference to a novel from the very period that maintains a strategic distance from broad utilization of tongue, prior to going to how these creators use vernacular and standard English alongside one another, just as set against one another, prior to getting done with an endeavor to historicize their employments of lingo. English the most prevalent language of the world has evolved with times influenced by German about 30%, Latin 30%, French 25%, Greek 5% and other languages about 10%. Surprisingly London alone has 300 other different languages spoken and they all influence add to the further development of Lingo and communication.

Women in top academic management in technikons : a feminist narrative interpretation
Authors:   , Turnbull-Jackson Carol Jeannette Anne
Published: September 2021

This study focused on women in Technikons who hold status positions as Dean or higher in the academic management hierarchy and aimed at uncovering those attributes which contributed to their success in breaking the 'glass ceiling'. The gender imbalance in their career paths highlighted the need to identify those attributes so that ways could be found to increase the representation of professional women in leadership and management position. The experiences and struggles of women in Third World Countries, such as South Africa, unfold in a very different context from those of women in First World Countries. As this research is about women for women and gives 'voice' to those women who participated in this project, attention must be paid to the knowledge and theory that incorporates women's experience and perspectives. It is therefore appropriate to view the marginalisation of women and hence their struggle for equality of opportunity in Technikon management from a feminist viewpoint. Narrative enquiry using primarily semi-structured in-depth interviews provided the data which was processed in terms of a categorical-content perspective. The relevant themes identified were interpreted by the researcher and used to formulate grounded theory. The results of this research study drew attention to the importance of the possession of emotional competencies and attributes, that is, the importance of emotional intelligence as an empowering attribute for women managers in academe. This is of special significance in that these attributes can be learned. It is imperative that women in management be provided with opportunities to develop these qualities.
Terra firma : contemporary representations of the South African landscape
Authors:   , De Menezes Clinton
Published: September 2021

This research aims to critically investigate the changing colonial and post-colonial attitudes towards the South African landscape, as physical space and its representation, through a post-colonial and Post-Modern critique. Chapter One explores the shifting colonial attitudes toward the landscape from the middle of the eighteenth century to the middle of the twentieth century, to provide an historical overview and context for contemporary practice. Section One defines colonialism for the purposes of this study and provides a brief history of colonialism in South Africa. Section Two provides a concise history of European visual representation from the middle of the eighteenth century to the middle of the twentieth century in order to contextualize the development of South African landscape painting. Section Three analyzes and evaluates changing colonial attitudes and their representation through a discussion of the work of Francois Le Vaillant (1753-1842), Thomas Baines (1820-1875) and J.H. Pierneef (1886-1957). Chapter Two explores attitudes towards the South African landscape between 1948 and 1994 in order to provide a link between colonial representation and post-colonial contemporary practice.
