CURRÍCULO E RELAÇÕES DE PODER: ANÁLISE DE UMA REFORMA CURRICULAR PARA CURSOS DE PEDAGOGIA EM TEMPOS DE CONSERVADORISMOS
Authors: Mendes Cláudio Lúcio , Cardoso Frederico Assis , Matos Daniel Abud Seabra
Published: August 2019

O artigo tem por objetivo analisar uma das questões mais relevantes que integraram a agenda das discussões, nas últimas décadas, sobre os cursos superiores de Pedagogia no Brasil: o currículo. Para tanto, trabalhamos com a análise de uma reforma curricular que envolveu dois cursos de Pedagogia de dois Centros Universitários privados localizados nos estados de Minas Gerais e de São Paulo. Como referencial analítico fizemos uso das teorias críticas e pós-críticas do campo dos Estudos do Currículo. A partir de uma gestão colegiada, democrática e participativa, identificamos uma grande arena de luta em torno da construção curricular que envolvia questões pedagógicas versus questões econômicas. No entanto, destacamos que, mesmo em um contexto de instituições privadas, é possível questionar, resistir e produzir um currículo que favoreça posturas mais democráticas, inclusivas e plurais. O argumento central é o de que as discussões do campo do currículo, quando tratadas criticamente, contribuem com o avanço intelectual e político de uma instituição.
INTERMATHEMATIC POSSIBILITIES: IOC, PLANE OF IMMANENCE AND THE ARCHITECTURE OF THE CONCEPTS

Published: August 2019

When we think of mathematics we feel we are facing a kind of universal knowledge that brings us closer to the truth. Transcendence is the space where we place this kind of objectification of mathematics. However, criticism of this type of hegemonic mathematics has been growing in recent years. In the face of hegemony and criticism, the objective of this article is to analyze internationalization of the curriculum (IoC) as the plane of immanence, and the process of conceptual construction in the field of philosophy. On these bases which in some ways represent the background that supports the critique of hegemonic mathematics, we can think of other possibilities that we call intermathematics. As an essay text, it follows theoretical contribution: BACHELARD (2008), BICUDO (1993), CANDAU (2002), DELEUZE (2000), DELEUZE (1996), FOUCAULT (2013), LEASK (20015), LUNA (2016), SANTOS (2002), SILVA (2010). To achieve the general objective, we divide the analysis into three parts. First, we approach the relationship between IoC and the immanence plan in the field of mathematics education. In a second moment, we discuss the idea of the plane of immanence and the IoC. Finally, we articulate methodological aspects, the plane of immanence and the conceptual construction process in an attempt to construct intermathematic possibilities. In this movement, we emphasize not only criticism of hegemonic mathematics, but also we indicate the ways of thinking mathematics in immanence through geo-mathematics, ethnomathematics and intermathematics.

Published: August 2019

» Conservative management with bracing and physical therapy remains the treatment of choice following acute, first-time dislocation in adolescent patients, but certain high-risk individuals may benefit from a surgical procedure as a first-line treatment.

» The physical therapist is intimately involved in patient care regardless of the chosen treatment strategy and must set realistic expectations to improve compliance and to minimize frustration. Through comprehensive biomechanical evaluation, factors such as quadriceps and hip abductor weakness that contribute to patellar dislocation are identified and are addressed.

» Surgical intervention consists of medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction alongside an á la carte approach to correcting other anatomic abnormalities. In the adolescent population, open growth plates dictate available surgical options, and care must be taken to avoid physeal damage.

» Given the propensity for recurrent instability, a thorough team approach is needed from the outset to successfully guide the patient through the treatment and recovery process.

Crowdfunding is managed by mobile application platform so that make easily accessed. To make customer investment, it is necessary through an investment provider. One of the important things of investment provider is service quality. Sometimes investment provider companies have problem in knowing the factor that can increase customer satisfication. This can make the company wrong in providing services needed by its customer.To find out the level of investor satisfication an analyse of factor that influence satisfication can be done. Factor of service quality can be used in the analyse. In service quality there are several factor namely tangibels, reliability, responsiveness, assurance and emphaty. In analysing used SPSS software to see the influence of these factors. After conducting research shows that service quality can affect customer satisfication, especially in the variables of reliability, responsiveness and tangibels that have significant influence. For the assurance and emphaty variables, they have an influence but not significantly. Therefore crowdfunding investment platform can implement aspects of service quality to influence their investor satisfication.

Issues of Liberation Education for children with special needs (Heward), (Wiyani 2014: 2) become a n interesting phenomenon that requires educational innovation. the philosophy of ABK education innovation is liberation both physically and psychologically, as human beings. Bandhie Delphie (2012: 2) revealed that children with special needs have their own learning characteristics and specificities. Likewise, children with special needs at the Leleani PLB school and Pelita Kasih Ambon. They need a pattern of liberation education as a way of humanization. The purpose of this paper is to design liberation education to find patterns of education that free children with special needs. The implication is that every child will accept his existence as a free human being, an independent human being, especially a humanist person. The method used to collect and analyze problems based on research data is qualitative with a descriptive approach whose results are dialogue and communication with love and affection. Apart from that consientization (Freire, 1984: 41) self as a human being. The conclusion of liberation education through dialogue and communication in love and affection and the effort to build self-awareness of children with special needs is the design of liberation education for children with special needs as a way to discover the human nature of themselves as human beings.

The involvement of teaching materials for the ongoing teaching and learning activities in schools is very important, especially teaching materials that have appeal and are arranged creatively for use by students. This attraction will encourage students to be more enthusiastic about learning. The motivations of students are inseparable from the role of educators in choosing teaching materials that are appropriate to the needs of their students. Educators also need to develop self-creativity to be able to create creative teaching materials. Teaching materials in the form of teaching books are generally in the form of textbooks and student worksheets so that the tendency of students to be lazy and bored in learning appears. Therefore we need teaching materials that have more appeal so students can easily understand. One of the creative teaching materials that can be developed is a three-dimensional textbook that can be used for students entering the age of children to adolescents. This textbook is intended to motivate students to be more active in reading so that they are able to link the examples presented in the book into real conditions in the surrounding environment.

Well-Testing Challenges in Unconventional and Tight-Gas-Formation Reservoirs
Authors: Azari Mehdi , Hamza Farrukh , Hadibeik Hamid , Ramakrishna Sandeep
Published: August 2019

Well–testing techniques provide valuable reservoir information, which is used to evaluate production potential and helps make development and completion decisions. Traditionally, newly drilled wells are tested using a drillstem test (DST) or wireline formation test (WFT). These methods are typically designed to flow the well under controlled conditions and then shut in the flow to achieve a pressure buildup (PBU).

In this paper, we present eight case studies to highlight well–testing challenges in tight–gas–formation wells in unconventional reservoirs. These challenges are accompanied by methods and solutions to adequately address them. During the first two cases, the duration of the PBU was not long enough to overcome high wellbore storage and reach radial flow. This was because of surface shut–in. A simulation is provided for Case 2 to highlight the importance of downhole shut–in. A hydraulically fractured, horizontal, tight–gas–formation well is presented in Case 3, where a 46–day–long PBU was conducted. However, owing to low permeability and high wellbore storage (WBS), this still resulted in a nonunique solution. The use of a wireline–conveyed formation tester to mitigate WBS effects is presented in Cases 4, 6, and 7. Case 5 is an example of a surface diagnostic fracture injection test (DFIT), with surface shut–in. In addition to the conventional PBU analysis, microfracturing and subsequent fluid sampling from tight formations have also been discussed. Finally, an injection/falloff (IFO) case is presented in a hydraulically fractured formation to discuss the challenges and solutions.

Because of controlled rates with an IFO test in low–permeability wells, faster flow stabilization can be achieved, resulting in shorter WBS durations. This technique can obtain well and reservoir information faster than a conventional PBU test. One issue with unconventional wells, particularly tight–gas–formation wells, is that the WBS lasts significantly longer than in standard wells. A downhole shut–in tool or any test that minimizes the WBS effects can greatly reduce the duration of such tests and help improve the quality of the analysis results. A discussion on formation compressibility has been provided to highlight the shortcomings of the traditional Hall's correlation for application in unconventional formations. This paper discusses several well–testing applications with corresponding analyses pertaining to unconventional wells. The results provided valuable information to help optimize production and evaluate reservoir potential.

BackgroundMicronutrient deficiencies including selenium (Se) are widespread in Malawi and potentially underlie a substantial disease burden, particularly among poorer and marginalised populations. Concentrations of Se in staple cereal crops can be increased through application of Se fertilisers – a process known as agronomic (agro-) biofortification – and this may contribute to alleviating deficiencies. The Addressing Hidden Hunger with Agronomy (AHHA) trial aims to establish the efficacy of this approach for improving Se status in rural Malawi.MethodsA double-blind, randomised, controlled trial will be conducted in a rural community in Kasungu District, Central Region, Malawi. The hypothesis is that consumption of maize flour agro-biofortified with Se will increase serum Se concentration. We will recruit 180 women of reproductive age (WRA; 20–45 years) and 180 school-aged children (SAC; 5–10 years) randomised in a 1:1 ratio to receive either maize flour enriched through agro-biofortification with Se or a control flour not enriched with Se. Households will receive flour (330 g [i]capita[/i]-1 day-1) for 12 weeks. The primary outcome is Se concentration in serum (µg L-1). Serum will be extracted from venous blood samples drawn at baseline (prior to flour distribution) and end-line. Selenium concentration will be measured using Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICPMS).DiscussionFindings will be communicated to policy stakeholders and participating communities and reported in peer-reviewed journals.

Leadership training in medical students using systemic awareness: an evaluation study
Authors: Scholtens Salome , Boer Hedwig , Smit Margreet , Stam Jan Jacob , Schmitt Antje , Fleer Joke
Published: August 2019

BACKGROUNDThe growing demand for the development of leadership skills among medical students is widely recognized. For leadership development to occur, awareness of the organisational and social context and the impact of this context on personal and group functioning and well-being is essential. However, this social context awareness is largely based on tacit or implicit knowledge. We argue that the systemic training approach with the method of systemic constellations, is effective in making this implicit knowledge explicit and enhancing social context awareness. The systemic training approach is already widely used in business settings for leadership development and team building, but has not been applied in the medical education setting. It offers active and experiential learning and supports transformative learning. The aims of this research are (1) to evaluate the reaction of medical bachelor students on this novel approach for systemic awareness training and (2) to investigate if type of trainer (i.e., experienced systemic trainers versus newly trained systemic trainers with experience in the medical teaching setting) makes a difference for students’ reaction on the training.METHODIn 2018 and 2019, we included systemic awareness training in the medical curriculum of the University of Groningen, the Netherlands. We evaluated the training in approximately 300 third-year medical bachelor students right after finishing the training. RESULTS Most students liked the training (64.1%, N=143), 17.0% (N=38) were neutral and 18.8% (N=42) did not like it. The training gave useful insights to 148 students (66.4%) and for the majority, timing of the training was appropriate (N=164, 77.0%). Having trainers who were familiar with teaching medical students significantly increased students’ reports of liking and usefulness.CONCLUSIONSSystemic awareness training using the constellations method is liked and regarded as useful, especially when it is given by systemic trainers with experience in the medical teaching setting. A next step is to investigate whether such a training increases systemic awareness and as such contributes to medical students’ leadership development.

Authors: Su Shanshan , Zhao Yongxin , Yu Lan , Li Chunjiang , Wang Yong , Wang Yuchao , Bao Mingjia , Fu Yu , Zhang Jisheng , Zhang Xiaoli
Published: August 2019

Background

Carbapenem-resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae strains have recently come into existence worldwide; however, researchers in northeast China are not aware of their clinical features and molecular characteristics.

Methods

Here, the molecular and virulent characteristics of 44 carbapenem-resistant K. pneumoniae (CRKP) isolates collected from January 2015 to December 2017 were studied. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) were carried out to define the clonal relatedness among the isolates. PCR and capsular serotyping of the virulence-associated genes, as well as biofilm formation and serum complement-mediated killing assays, were employed to determine the virulent potential. The genomic features and associated mobile genetic elements of JmsCRE57 were detected by whole genome sequencing.

Results

The only positive isolate was JmsCRE57, which belonged to the ST375 serotype K2 that expressed uge, mrkD, fimH, kpn, aerobactin and rmpA virulence-associated genes and showed strong biofilm formation and serum sensitivity. Sequencing results showed that the JmsCRE57 genome mainly consisted of a circular chromosome, three antibiotic resistance plasmids and a virulent plasmid. The antibiotic resistance plasmid expressing blaKPC-2, blaCTX-M-15, aph(3'')-Ib, aph(6)-Id, qnrB1, aac(3)-IIa, aac(6')-Ib-cr, blaOXA-1, blaTEM-1B, catB4, sul2, dfrA14 and blaSHV-99. The virulent plasmid belonged to the IncHI1B group, which is mainly composed of mucoid phenotype genes and siderophore-associated genes. The remaining CRKP strains that expressed uge, fimH, mrkD and kpn virulence-associated genes were not successfully typed.

Conclusion

Our results provide new insights on the epidemiology of carbapenem-resistant K2 hypervirulent K. pneumoniae ST375 and CRKP ST76 strains in northeast China, which may help control their future outbreaks.
The side effects of service changes: exploring the longitudinal impact of participation in a randomised controlled trial (DOORWAYS) on staff perceptions of barriers to change
Authors: Laker Caroline , Cella Matteo , Callard Felicity , Wykes Til
Published: August 2019

Background

Staff and service users have expressed concerns that service improvements in U.K. mental health wards have been slow or transient. It is possible that certain changes are positive for some (e.g. service users), but negative for others (e.g. staff), which may affect implementation success. In this study, we explore whether a programme of change to improve the therapeutic milieu on mental health wards influenced staff perceptions of barriers to change, 12 months after implementation.

Method

A cluster randomised controlled trial called DOORWAYS was conducted on eight inner-city U.K. acute mental health wards. Randomisation was achieved using a list randomly generated by a computer. A psychologist trained ward staff (mainly nurses) to deliver evidence-based groups and supported their initial implementation. The impact of these changes was measured over 12 months (when 4 wards were randomised), according to nurses’ perceptions of barriers to change (VOCALISE), using unstructured multivariate linear regression models. This innovative analysis method allows maximum use of data in randomised controlled trials with reduced sample sizes due to substantial drop out rates. The contextual influences of occupational status (staff) and of workplace setting (ward) were also considered.

Results

Staff who participated in the intervention had significantly worse perceptions of barriers to change at follow up. The perceptions of staff in the control group did not change over time. In both groups (N=120), direct care staff had more negative perceptions of barriers to change, and perceptions varied according to ward. Across time, direct care staff in the intervention group became more negative than those in the control group.

Conclusion

Participation in this program of change, worsened staff perceptions of barriers to change. In addition, occupational status (being from the direct care group) had a negative effect on perceptions of barriers to change, an effect that continued across time and was worse in the intervention group. Those providing direct care should be offered extra support when changes are introduced and through the implementation process. More effort should be placed around reducing the perceived burden of innovation for staff in mental health wards.

Authors: Hibstu Desalegn Tsegaw , Limaso Alaka Adiso , Dangisso Mesay Hailu
Published: August 2019

Background

The first day, week and month of life are the most critical period for the survival of children. In Ethiopia, despite a significant reduction in under-five mortality during the last fifteen years, neonatal mortality remains a public health problem accounting for 47% of under-five mortality. Understanding neonatal survival and risk factors for neonatal mortality could help devising tailored interventions.

Objective

The aim of this study was to determine the neonatal survival and risk factors for neonatal mortality in Aroresa district, Southern Ethiopia.

Methods

A community based prospective follow up study was conducted among a cohort of term pregnant mothers and neonates delivered from January 1/2018 to March 30/2018. A total of 586 term pregnant mothers were selected with a multistage sampling technique and 584 neonates were followed-up for a total of 28 days, with 12 twin pairs. Data were coded, entered cleaned and analyzed using SPSS version 22. Kaplan–Meier survival curve was used to show pattern of neonatal death in 28 days. Independent and adjusted relationships of different predictors with neonates’ survival were assessed with Cox regression model. The risk of mortality was explored and presented with hazard ratio and 95% confidence interval and P-value less than 0.05 were considered as significant.

Result

The overall neonatal mortality was 41 per 1000 live births. Hazards of neonatal mortality was high for neonates with complications (AHR=3.643; 95% CI, 1.36-9.77), male neonates (AHR=2.71; 95% CI, 1.03-7.09), small sized baby (AHR=3.46; 95% CI, 1.119-10.704), neonates who had initiated EBF after one hour (AHR=3.572; 95% CI, 1.255-10.165) and with mothers who had no postnatal care (AHR=3.07; 95% CI, 1.16-8.12).

Conclusion

Neonatal mortality in study area was 4.1% which was high and immediate action should be taken towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. To improve neonatal survival, high impact interventions such as promotion of maternal service utilization, essential newborn care and early initiation of exclusive breast feeding were recommended.
Alcohol use, pregnancy and associated risk factors: a pilot cross-sectional study of pregnant women attending antenatal care in an urban city
Authors: Moise Imelda K
Published: August 2019

Background
Alcohol consumption during pregnancy can cause adverse pregnancy outcomes such as preventable alcohol-related developmental disability fetal alcohol syndrome. This study examined the prevalence of alcohol use in a representative sample of pregnant women attending prenatal care at two urban clinics in Lusaka, Zambia.

Methods
A cross-sectional facility based survey evaluated self-reported alcohol use in the periconceptional period and pregnancy recognition (outcomes). Bivariate analyses were performed using the χ2 test for dichotomous variables and the t-test for continuous variables. Mixed-effects linear models were used to evaluate the effect of outcome variables with patient-level variables.

Results
About 40 (21.2%) pregnant women were identified by the T-ACE as at-risk for problem drinking during pregnancy. Except for regular prenatal care and distance, there was no difference in the demographic factors between pregnant women who scored <2 on the T-ACE and those that scored > 2 points (all p’s > 0.05). A small proportional of women at both clinics reported binge drinking during the periconceptional period (12.7% vs. 3.2%, p=0.003) and beyond periconception period. Excluding employed women, no significant relationships were observed between alcohol use and demographic factors.

Conclusion
These findings underscore the need for targeted screening and intervention for alcohol use in all pregnant women in Zambia.

Background Developing low-cost yet scalable interventions for youth depression and anxiety symptoms in low-income regions such as countries in Sub Saharan Africa is a global mental health priority. We developed and intend to evaluate one such intervention for adolescent depression and anxiety in Kenya. The intervention, named Shamiri (a Swahili word for ‘thrive’), draws upon evidence-based components of brief interventions that involve nonclinical principles rather than treatment of psychopathology (e.g. growth mindset, gratitude and virtues). Methods Between 400 and 500 high-symptom Kenyan adolescents (ages 13-18) will be randomized to either the four-week Shamiri group intervention or a group study-skills control intervention of equal duration and dosage. Participating adolescents will meet in groups of 8-15, led by a high-school graduate trained to deliver Shamiri as a lay-provider. Adolescents will self-report primary outcome measures (depression and anxiety symptoms) and secondary outcome measures (e.g., perceived social support, perceived academic control, self-reported optimism, etc.) at the 2-week intervention midpoint, 4-week post-intervention endpoint, and 2-week post-intervention follow-up. We predict that adolescents in the Shamiri group, when compared to the study-skills control group, will show greater improvements in primary outcomes and secondary outcomes. Discussion Results may suggest that a brief, lay-provider delivered, school-based intervention may reduce internalizing symptoms, improve academic outcomes and other psychosocial outcomes in high-symptom adolescents in Sub-Saharan Africa.

Published: August 2019

Purpose

Hypertriglyceridemia-induced acute pancreatitis (HTG-AP) during pregnancy is a rare but severe disease with high maternal-fetal mortality risk, which constitutes a systemic inflammatory process accompanied by thrombosis and bleeding disorders. However, the role of mean platelet volume (MPV) in HTG-AP during pregnancy remains unclear. This study aimed to assess the role of MPV and the potential relationship with disease severity in HTG-AP during pregnancy.

Methods

In the retrospective study, we collected 45 patients with HTG-AP during pregnancy as the HTG-AP group and 49 pregnant females with hypertriglyceridemia as the control group. MPV and other relevant variables at onset and remission were collected and compared.

Results

MPV levels were significantly higher in the HTG-AP group than in the control group (P < 0.001), and lower in remission than on onset (P = 0.002). According to the severity of acute pancreatitis, all subjects were classified into mild AP (MAP), moderately severe AP (MSAP), and severe AP (SAP) groups. There was a significant difference in MPV on onset among the three groups (P = 0.048), and the SAP patients had the highest levels of MPV. In addition, only in the SAP group, MPV was lower in remission than on onset (P = 0.010).

Conclusion

These results may indicate an important role of MPV in evaluating the severity of HTG-AP during pregnancy.

It has been estimated that approximately 75% of the human’s sodium intake is added during industrial manufacturing. Processed meats can also contain relatively high amounts of saturated fats, and high levels of fat, associated with increased risk of obesity, diabetes and cancers, especially colon cancers. In contrast, dietary fiber intake (ex. inulin) has been associated with health benefits, including a suggested protective effect against colorectal cancer due to an inverse association with colorectal cancer risk. Nutritional and health concerns indicate that consumption of these two elements should be reduced. This study aimed to develop a ham with reduced levels of salt and fat. We added essential oils of oregano and rosemary to preserve the ham as a substitute for fat, for which inulin was also added. Six ham formulations were prepared (control, fat reduction + inulin, salt reduction, salt reduction + essential oils, salt reduction + no fat, and salt reduction + no fat + essential oils). The physical-chemical and microbiological quality parameters were evaluated. The addition of inulin did not interfere with the chemical composition of the formulated ham, presenting itself as a promising alternative for reducing the addition of fat in baked ham. The administration of essential oils in combination caused a significant decrease in native flora of cooked ham. These results suggest that a combination of essential oils and inulin may be a promising alternative in the production of meat products with lower salt and fat levels.
Riesgos jurídicos del empresario en Colombia

Published: August 2019

Los riesgos jurídicos que asume el empresario relacionados con los contratos que celebra, se encuentran tanto en el antes como en el después de su ejecución, esto es, tanto en la etapa precontractual, como en la etapa post contractual del negocio jurídico celebrado, particularmente, llaman la atención los contratos de ejecución diferida donde el paso de tiempo crea incertidumbres que ante un incumplimiento acarrea costos que necesariamente rompen el equilibrio contractual de los contratantes.Es así como se hace necesario entender que los contratos de ejecución diferida tienen riesgos, los cuales deben y pueden minimizarse con incentivos y remedios ante posibles e imprevistos incumplimientos. Los riesgos conllevan costos; los costos de transacción contienen tanto los contables como los económicos, los primeros se refieren a los históricos, mientras que los segundos al futuro. Los costos de oportunidad que se encuentran dentro de los rubros económicos, dan lugar al beneficio sacrificado por no realizar otra actividad.
Vigencia de Maquiavelo

Se suele pensar que El Príncipe solamente se refiere a las monarquías, no así a las repúblicas ni a las democracias. Apelando a la práctica política actual, este escrito busca demostrar que el objeto de aquel libro es el poder político en general, sin importar la forma de gobierno dentro de la que es ejercido.
A HIPERVULNERABILIDADE DO CONSUMIDOR IDOSO NAS MENSALIDADES DOS PLANOS DE SAÚDE EM RAZÃO DA IDADE NA JURISPRUDÊNCIA REPETITIVA DO STJ (RESP 1.568.244/RJ)
Authors: Verbicaro Dennis , Arruda Sergie Gerrits
Published: August 2019

O presente artigo, através do método dedutivo e de pesquisa teórica e jurisprudencial, pretende demonstrar que a decisão do Superior Tribunal de Justiça, no julgamento do tema repetitivo 952 e com base no REsp 1.568.244/RJ, a pretexto de padronizar a interpretação judicial acerca dos reajustes abusivos nas mensalidades dos planos de saúde do idoso, importou em grave retrocesso à tutela do consumidor, na medida em que supervalorizou o vetusto princípio do pacta sunt servanda nas relações de consumo e, ainda, atribuiu autoridade decisória irrecorrível à Agência Nacional de Saúde quanto ao reajuste das mensalidades, deixando para uma improvável revisão judicial o conceito de onerosidade excessiva na análise do caso concreto. Conclui-se que o precedente em referência ignora a condição de hipervulnerabilidade do consumidor idoso, favorecendo a transferência do risco da atividade econômica das Administradoras de Planos para a parte mais fraca na relação de consumo, comprometendo o próprio acesso à saúde.
PSICOPATIA: DOSIMETRIA DA PENA SOB A ANÁLISE DA PERSONALIDADE DO AGENTE
Authors: Santana Diogo Caetano , Campelo Raissa Braga
Published: August 2019

O presente trabalho tem como objetivo analisar a personalidade do agente delituoso psicopata no que tange a sua personalidade peculiar, sob o manto da imputabilidade penal, discorrendo sobre a posição da doutrina psicológica sobre a possível configuração de uma doença mental ou loucura, bem como os sentimentos intrínsecos de tal agente e seus sentimentos nas relações interpessoais, e assim fazendo criando-se um paralelo com quem é o psicopata e quem é o serial killer, assim na sequência a partir da análise da personalidade do agente psicopata o texto elenca um estudo acerca das circunstâncias do crime diante das peculiaridades da personalidade do psicopata, propiciando também uma análise  das circunstâncias do crime suas características e seus aspectos legais   no  tocante ao direito penal brasileiro, bem como a análise da personalidade na fase de dosimetria da pena e qual a valoração esta personalidade vai ter na fase de dosimetria da pena, assim tais discussões irão oportunizar uma visão acerca da imputação da pena base,  prevista no artigo 59 do código penal, e as circunstâncias judiciais dispostas no artigo em epígrafe, bem como as espécies que trazem em seu bojo, analisadas de forma individual. Além da análise da dosimetria da pena e a personalidade do agente psicopata frente a uma dupla dosagem de pena, analisando se existe uma afronta ao princípio do non bis in idem, para ao final verificar de que forma a primeira fase da pena será dosada considerando a personalidade do agente independente das circunstâncias do crime.

Published: August 2019

In this study, a novel composite of modified diatomite supported nanoscale zero-valent iron (mD-NZVI) was synthesized and characterized. The effects of four factors (mD-NZVI dose, temperature, contact time and initial pH) on the removal of Cr(VI) by mD-NZVI were studied by experimental work and analyzed by response surface methodology (RSM). A second-order polynomial equation fitted by Box-Behnken design was used as a statistical model and proved to be precise in describing the significance of four factors. The analysis results show that the effects of four factors on the removal efficiency of Cr(VI) were significant (F value is 19.83), initial pH was found to be the key factor. In addition, the effect of initial pH was further studied and the maximum removal efficiency of 89.34% was obtained at pH of 3, the decrease in removal efficiency with the increase in pH is a synergistic effect of Cr(VI) species, surface charge of mD-NZVI and OH− amount at different pH.
ENEGRECENDO O CURRÍCULO ESCOLAR:
Authors: Acosta Tassio , Nascimento Gabriel Silva Xavier
Published: August 2019

Construir um currículo escolar que abarque a pluralidade e riqueza cultural brasileira demanda reconhecer a potência que essa pluralidade possibilita na construção de novos saberes. Partindo da ideia de que o currículo consolidado na educação brasileira tem contribuído para a perpetuação de um modo de ser e se relacionar eurocêntrico, tencionamos ao longo deste trabalho apresentar por meio de um estudo de caso caminhos contra hegemônicos que possibilitem integrar o saber popular à prática cotidiana escolar, por meio da construção de uma horta coletiva de acordo com os costumes quilombolas. A atividade, envolvendo, docentes, técnicos e alunos de um campus do Instituto Federal de São Paulo, possibilitou um estreitamento de relações entre os saberes das comunidades tradicionais locais e os métodos de investigação científica que perpassam o currículo proposto nos cursos de ensino médio integrado ao técnico. Os resultados nos permitem avançar para uma compreensão mais crítica sobre diferentes tipos de saberes invisibilizados no currículo e suas possibilidades de entrelaçamento por meio de práticas que envolvem discussões acerca de aspectos identitários, culturais e sociais mais plurais e significativos.
MARCADORES IDENTITÁRIOS MATO-GROSSENSES
Authors: Caldeira da Silva Regiane , Mancuso Maria Inês Rauter
Published: August 2019

Como expressão cultural e entretenimento, a música configura-se como aparato de estudo e compreensão de espaços e realidades sociais, instrumento para o compartilhamento e exposição de vivências e memórias. Sem pretensão de estudar mudanças sociais como fez Antônio Candido por meio da música-cururu, este estudo busca observar o papel da comida nas letras de rasqueado, estilo musical mato-grossense. Dados foram gerados primeiramente por busca online de trabalhos que versam sobre o rasqueado, depois por músicas e suas letras com as palavras-chave “rasqueado mato-grossense”, o que incluiu vídeos do Youtube. Além disso, foi utilizada a lista de artistas do rasqueado cuiabano compilada por Arruda (2007), dividida em velha guarda e nova geração. Os trabalhos de Ariano (2002), Benites (2010) e Porto et al (2005) foram também úteis na identificação de artistas e músicas, assim como para conhecimento do rasqueado. Ao todo foram selecionadas nove músicas. Notou-se que a comida no espaço-música desenvolve o papel de marcador identitário, instrumento representativo da cultura mato-grossense, cantada com alegria, muitas vezes com saudade, nostalgia e crítica. Juntamente com outros elementos, estabelece uma estrutura (dinâmica) que aponta “fazemos e/ou comemos isso/aquilo pois somos cuiabanos e/ou mato-grossenses”, o que corrobora com o que aponta Brillat Savarin (1995, p.21) “ dize-me o que comes e te direi quem és”. Logo, comida não serve apenas para encher o estômago, serve para pensar, comunicar e compreender o que nos faz humanos, como destaca Lévi-Strauss (2004).
OS FOODIES NA ARENA SOCIOLÓGICA
Authors: Azevedo Elaine de
Published: August 2019

Esta pesquisa conceitual problematiza o conceito de ‘foodie’, neologismo cunhado pela crítica gastronômica Gael Greene e popularizado pelos jornalistas Ann Barr e Paul Levy em seu The Official Foodie Handbook publicado na década de 1990. O fenômeno é explorado com muito mais vigor através das lentes de jornalistas em colunas gastronômicas e ainda pouco discutido nas Ciências Sociais. O estudo revela o potencial sociológico dessa temática que transpassa categorias de análise como cultura alimentar, classe, gênero, consumo, estilo de vida, hedonismo e ética.
