Sex: the last real binary?
Authors: Bhattacharyya Shiuli
Published: March 2024

The rights of transgender and intersex people have become a contentious issue in our current political climate. Whether it be the rights of intersex athletes such as Caster Semenya (who identifies as a woman) to compete in elite sport, or the rights of transgender women to use women’s only spaces, there is an increasingly fierce debate as to the legitimacy of people’s gender and sexual identities and what parameters should be used to define them. A common argument accepted by most in our society is that while gender may be a spectrum, sex is an inalienable binary.
Beak deformity in three bird species from the southwest of the Brazilian Amazon

Published: March 2024

La deformidad del pico es una característica rara y tiene una frecuencia baja, con 0.5% de casos en poblaciones de aves silvestres. Además de ser raras, las deformidades del pico también son escasamente reportadas en la literatura científica brasileña. Reportamos aquí deformidades en los picos de aves de las especies: Dendrocincla merula, Amazona ochrocephala y Pheugopedius genibarbis, en los cuales todos los registros ocurrieron en el sudoeste de la Amazonia brasileña. Los dendrocoláptidos hacen uso intensivo del pico en la búsqueda de insectos y pequeños vertebrados, explorando en grietas de la madera con golpes laterales. En el caso aquí presentado, este comportamiento de exploración pudo haber sido la causa de la rotura de la punta del maxilar de este individuo. En el territorio brasileño, pocas especies de loros fueron registradas con deformidad en el pico y en el individuo de este trabajo, todo indica que Amazona ochrocephala era un animal de cautiverio, ya que estaba excesivamente delgado y su dieta probablemente tenía un bajo contenido de vitaminas y calcio, donde su deficiencia incluso cuando el animal era un joven puede haber contribuido a la deformidad del maxilar. Los casos de deformidades del pico en especies de la familia Troglodytidae son raros, pero el individuo de este trabajo presentaba una curvatura inusual en el maxilar no observada en otros individuos de esta especie depositados en la colección científica. Sólo con más informes podremos entender mejor la ocurrencia y las causas de estas deformidades del pico en aves silvestres.

Published: March 2024

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES

Household economic hardship negatively impacts child health but may not be adequately captured by income. We sought to determine the prevalence of household material hardship (HMH), a measure of household economic hardship, and to examine the relationship between household poverty and material hardship in a population of children with medical complexity.

METHODS

We conducted a cross-sectional survey study of parents of children with medical complexity receiving primary care at a tertiary children’s hospital. Our main predictor was household income as a percentage of the federal poverty limit (FPL): <50% FPL, 51% to 100% FPL, and >100% FPL. Our outcome was HMH measured as food, housing, and energy insecurity. We performed logistic regression models to calculate adjusted odds ratios of having ≥1 HMH, adjusted for patient and clinical characteristics from surveys and the Pediatric Health Information System.

RESULTS

At least 1 material hardship was present in 40.9% of participants and 28.2% of the highest FPL group. Families with incomes <50% FPL and 51% to 100% FPL had ∼75% higher odds of having ≥1 material hardship compared with those with >100% FPL (<50% FPL: odds ratio 1.74 [95% confidence interval: 1.11–2.73], P = .02; 51% to 100% FPL: 1.73 [95% confidence interval: 1.09–2.73], P = .02).

CONCLUSIONS

Poverty underestimated household economic hardship. Although households with incomes <100% FPL had higher odds of having ≥1 material hardship, one-quarter of families in the highest FPL group also had ≥1 material hardship.

Authors: Son DongWon , Ahn Ki Ok , Park Hang A , Park Ju Ok
Published: March 2024

Objective: This study investigated the status and evaluated factors associated with knowledge and attitudes regarding pediatric concussions among Korean parents of children aged 6 to 18 years.Methods: A cross-sectional online survey was employed to collect data from a panel of parents in Korea in 2023. To assess knowledge and attitudes regarding concussions, participants completed a validated questionnaire. The outcome variables of total knowledge score (range, 0–30) and total attitude score (range, 7–49) were categorized into tertiles. We conducted multivariable ordinal logistic regression analyses with participants and their children based on demographic information and characteristics as covariates.Results: A total of 260 parents responded to the survey and demonstrated moderate concussion-related knowledge (median total score, 21; interquartile range [IQR], 18–22.5). The respondents exhibited favorable attitudes toward concussions (median total score, 39; IQR, 34–43). Multivariate ordinal regression analysis for outcomes revealed only career of healthcare provider (adjusted odds ratio, 3.15; 95% confidence interval , 1.13–8.75) to be associated with parental concussion-related knowledge. No factors exhibited a significant association with concussion-related parental attitudes.Conclusion: Our results confirmed the knowledge-attitude gap regarding pediatric concussions among Korean parents. Novel strategies are warranted to improve parental knowledge and attitudes.

Published: March 2024

Abdominal pain is one of the most common presenting chief complaints in the emergency department. Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is an ultrasound-guided nerve block with proven effectiveness in treating visceral and somatic abdominal pain. Despite the increasing popularity of ESPB, its role in the management of nonsurgical abdominal pain has not yet been characterized. Our scoping review aims to synthesize current knowledge on the safety and efficacy of ESPB in the management of patients experiencing intractable, nonsurgical abdominal pain. We searched PubMed and Scopus to evaluate the existing literature on ESPB for nonsurgical abdominal pain. A total of 14 journal articles were included: 12 case-based studies, one systematic review, and one narrative review. All cases described the successful use of ESPB in treating abdominal pain refractory to oral or intravenous analgesic medications, and no complications were reported in any cases. This scoping review provides support for the use of ESPB to manage intractable, nonsurgical abdominal pain. ESPB has demonstrated efficacy in alleviating various conditions such as functional abdominal pain, renal colic, pancreatitis, herpetic pain, and cancer-related pain. Theoretical risks such as pneumothorax, bleeding, and infection are possible, although the studies reviewed did not report such complications.
Is the field of organic thermoelectrics stuck?
Authors: Brunetti Irene , Dash Aditya , Scheunemann Dorothea , Kemerink Martijn
Published: March 2024

With the rising popularity of organic thermoelectrics, the interest in doping strategies for organic semiconductors has increased strongly over the last decade. Here, we use aggregate data to discuss how far the approaches pursued till date have brought the community in terms of typical performance indicators for doped semiconductors in the context of thermoelectric applications. Surprisingly, despite the superlinear increase in the number of publications on the subject matter, the performance indicators show no clear upward trend in the same time range. In the second part, we discuss possible approaches to break this deadlock. A specifically promising approach, controlling the distribution of dopant atoms in the host material, is discussed in some quantitative detail by experiments and numerical simulations. We show that spontaneous modulation doping, that is, the spatial separation between static dopant ions and mobile charge carriers, leads to a dramatic conductivity increase at low dopant loading.

‘Close, But No Cigar’

Published: March 2024

For many years, coconuts were a popular feature of the fairground in the UK. In fact, in the early to mid-eighteenth century, the public’s first exposure to this exotic nut may well have been at the fairground. In support of such a claim, just take Treloar’s (1884) suggestion that: ‘There are a good many people still living who can remember when a Cocoa-nut was a comparative rarity in some parts of England. In a few old country mansions, or on the mantel-shelves of retired sea-captains, and occasionally in London curiosity shops, …’. In this article, we briefly summarize the history of this former fairground food and offer a recipe for a dish comprised of two elements, both involving a little playful culinary trompe-l’oeil that pays homage to the old-time fairground spirit.

Objeción de conciencia al aborto e igualdad laboral de los profesionales sanitarios
Authors: Cañamares-Arribas Santiago
Published: March 2024

En este trabajo se analiza la garantía de la igualdad y no discriminación de los profesionales sanitarios que objetan en conciencia a la realización de abortos por motivos de conciencia. De la misma manera, se analiza en qué medida las entidades sanitarias con ideario contrario a estas prácticas tienen derecho a contratar únicamente a aquellos profesionales que compartan su ideario o a someter a sus trabajadores a obligaciones de lealtad frente al mismo.
El significado del escándalo en la disciplina sacramental
Authors: Del-Pozzo Massimo
Published: March 2024

El artículo explora el significado del escándalo en la práctica sacramental. La tradición moral y canónica y la sistemática codicial ofrecen pruebas significativas de la influencia del concepto; sin embargo, deben enfrentarse a la ofuscación y la desviación en la mentalidad posmoderna. Descifrar los elementos constitutivos del scandalum pone de relieve la conexión intrínseca del daño social con la justicia, la objetividad del prejuicio y la influencia performativa de la conducta desviada. En el ámbito sacramental, la defensa de la conciencia y de la rectitud de los agentes viene impuesta por la propia sacralidad de la acción, promoviendo la participación plena, activa y consciente de todos. Por el contrario, la pérdida del influjo comunitario y solidario de la liturgia conduce a un protagonismo solipsista de los fieles y a una indebida privatización del culto. La continuidad y coherencia entre doctrina, disciplina y práctica parece ser la garantía más segura y fiable del patrimonio celebrativo y del bonum agere pastorale.
Multidimensionalidad del derecho canónico y principios jurídicos globales
Authors: Domingo-Oslé Rafael
Published: March 2024

Este artículo analiza las mutuas influencias entre el derecho canónico y el derecho secular en la llamada era secular. El derecho canónico aporta luz al derecho secular en la medida en que opera a modo de fuente de sabiduría jurídica multisecular y conocimiento trascendente. No responde esta contribución, pues, a los estándares del razonamiento jurídico secular, ni es en modo alguno coactiva. Es una luz netamente metarracional, que puede ser reconocida y asimilada por los ordenamientos jurídicos sin perder su nota de secularidad. Por su parte, el derecho secular aporta al derecho canónico una técnica jurídica refinada. El derecho secular ayuda al derecho canónico a limitar el grado de discrecionalidad en la aplicación del derecho, a dar una mayor significación al derecho comparado, a mejorar los aspectos comunicativos del derecho canónico, a implementar las garantías procesales, especialmente la presunción de inocencia, y a frenar el exceso de juridicismo.

Successful professional selection plays a significant role in improving the performance of sports teams, which determines the relevance of the search for new methods of selecting of the athletes. It was previously shown that approaches based on psychophysiological methods for current functional parameters can provide reliable forecasts of the state for a long — term period. The purpose of this study was to determine the psychophysiological types characteristic of successful athletes. The task of the part 1 of the study presented in this article is to search for the characteristics of temperament and anxiety that are most typical of high-level athletes. The authors examined 28 male skiers and swimmers (mean age 19,6 years, SD 2.6) of various levels of sports qualification. The following methods were used: (1) methods of temperament diagnostics (FCB-TI, Ya. Strelyau), (2) the Spielberger-Khanin trait and reactive anxiety test (STAI). The authors defined 3 subtypes of a combination of personality traits characteristic of high-level athletes using the approaches of the Data Mining apparatus for building a decision tree. The article presents the following conclusions: (1) the sample of male athletes is on average less inertial, gives fewer negative emotions to stimuli and is more efficient than the population sample of male non-athletes; (2) low persistence, according to FCB-TI Ya. Strelau (as a tendency to react to a stimulus that is already completed) and middle reactive anxiety (according to the STAI questionnaire) are the most optimal indicators of temperament and anxiety for the formation of skills characteristic of high sportsmanship.
Metaphorization of German socio-political discourse
Authors: Gafarova Asiya
Published: March 2024

The emergence of new phenomena and concepts determines the constant need for new means of cognition, nomination and evaluation — a process in which metaphors traditionally take the leading place.
The article is devoted to the processes of replenishing the actual vocabulary of socio-political discourse through metaphorization as a means of secondary nomination. The subject of the study is the metaphorical character of this part of the modern German lexicon and the processes of metaphorization that took place in the German-language socio-political discourse during the last decade. The object of the study was lexical units selected from publications in modern
German-language media. The paper describes the functioning of topical metaphors in the social sphere, domestic and foreign policy, economy, education, modern technologies, and ecology. The processes of metaphor migration between different spheres, as well as the expansion and specialization of their meaning are presented. The linguistic material is considered first of all in cognitive and nominative aspects and is analyzed according to several criteria: conceptosphere, belonging to parts of speech and language of origin, structural and functional characteristics, word-formation potential. Special attention is paid to the description of conceptual (cognitive), figurative and expressive-evaluative metaphors, as well as the anthropocentric nature of metaphor. The article analyzes a number of
so-called «leading metaphors» of modern socio-political discourse, which, due to their high frequency and manipulative use, have lost their metaphoricality over time and undergone significant semantic changes. The problem of manipulative nature of some metaphors, the issues of morality and political correctness of their use are discussed. Theoretical considerations are illustrated by actual linguistic material, which is a cross-section of a particular stage of language functioning and allows us to study its dynamic and creative essence.
Marital violence in the focus of sociological research
Authors: Efimova Anna , Kalachina Olga
Published: March 2024

The article analyzes the phenomenon of marital violence. The empirical object of the study is the population of the Republic of Mordovia. The purpose of the study is to assess the current situation and identify the main factors and causes of domestic violence against spouses.
The authors consider the types and forms of marital violence, the level and frequency of abuse, and the determinants of family violence.
As part of the sociological research, a survey of residents aged 18 and older was conducted. The sample size was 384 people, the representative features were gender, age, place of residence. The gender and age structure of the respondents corresponds to the structure of the region's population. A quantitative method was used as a tool for collecting primary information — an individual
face-to-face interview at the respondent's place of residence using a paper questionnaire (PAPI) and a CAWI survey using an interactive questionnaire in the proportion of 30 to 70 %, respectively.
It was revealed that more than half of the residents have not experienced domestic violence and categorically deny spousal violence, considering it unacceptable and unacceptable.
It is determined marital violence in most cases manifests itself in various forms of mental violence: withholding, verbal aggression, aggressive dominant behavior, manifested in a ban on communication with friends or girlfriends. Economic abuse manifests itself in the infringement of the opportunity to purchase clothes, food and have personal running expenses. Physical and sexual violence is less common between spouses and partners.
Based on the study, it was found that marital violence is caused by subjective factors (family interaction practices, financial status, and alcohol consumption) that contribute to the reproduction and spread of abuse
Transformations of the Creator Man’s image in art
Authors: Lekus Elena
Published: March 2024

Art is not only a form of self-expression, but it is self-knowledge and
self-acceptance. From this position, the Creator Man’s image in art represents research optics in which the transformations occurring in human existence become visible. These transformations are connected by a person’s experience of the meaning and values of his own existence in their relationship with the world. Understanding art as an existential experience, and therefore understanding the image of the Creator Man as artistic existence, opens up the possibility of understanding the «human code» contained in artistic creativity.
The Creator Man’s image is one of the main projects of art, which has gone through many stages during its implementation. The article consistently examines different historical periods of artistic creativity. Their analysis shows the gradual growth of the individual principle of the artist, which had its own version of the «counterweight» in different eras. On this basis, the author of the study puts forward a hypothesis: when a human artist first realized his exceptional creative capabilities in understanding and transforming reality, his individualized position of a creator (a thesis) always had its antithesis. At the same time, the thesis, which is a constant first established by Renaissance culture, could be modified depending on the dominant social, cultural and artistic meanings and values in a given era, but it never disappeared from art. While different antitheses dominated in different historical periods. The author examines various manifestations of this contradiction using the examples of baroque art, classicism, romanticism, realism and modernism. This allows us to fix the reference points in the development of the Creator Man’s image.
Analysis of historical transformations of the Creator Man’s individualization in art makes it possible to trace the changes that took place in artistic consciousness, reflecting the image of the world with the anthropos operating in it.
Social factors in choosing personal names among Turkmens
Authors: Yagmurova Mehri
Published: March 2024

This article is devoted to the analysis of social factors that indicate the choice of a certain personal name among the Turkmen people. The article examines personal names which contain extensive information about the features of the cultural, historical, social and everyday picture of the development of society.
The relevance of this work is determined by the growing interest in the onomastics of Turkmenistan, namely personal names, which are the most important linguistic source of information about the culture and history of the Turkmen people. The article discusses the system of principles underlying the naming of a born child by a name among the Turkmen people. The Turkmen anthroponymic system indicates a wide range of criteria associated with family-tribal, religious, historical, natural, and physiological naming traditions.
The purpose of this article is to analyze the motives for naming among the Turkmen people.
In the article we have highlighted the main models of naming. In Turkmen linguistic culture, parents’ attitudes were manifested in intentional names.
In conclusion, we can conclude that a personal name carries a deep semantic load. Moreover, it affects a person’s future. Along with the usual rules that Turkmens use when choosing names for their children, they have special customs that reflect the specifics and originality of naming a child and these customs are closely related to the character of the people themselves, the nature of their economy, sociocultural and religious and moral views.
Our analysis of the motives for naming among the Turkmens showed that the Turkmen anthroponymic system reflects the unique features of the life understanding of the surrounding reality, which clarifies certain periods of the social life and spiritual culture of the Turkmen people.
Linguistic peculiarities of fake publications about the COVID-19 pandemic (on the example of Russian and English-language new media)
Authors: Guslyakova Alla , Kozlova Anna
Published: March 2024

The aim of the study is to identify the linguistic features of fake publications about the COVID-19 pandemic on the example of Russian and English-language new media in order for a modern person to be able to recognize such types of news among the published information content. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the identification and study of similarities and differences in the use of the language of fake news about COVID-19 in Russian and English languages. The work included a linguistic assessment of the ability of authors of fake publications in Russian and
English-language new media to operate a variety of stylistic techniques in order to expand the emotional range of published media materials, thereby contributing to a stronger emotional impact on the audience of readers (viewers, listeners). As a result of the study, it was found that Russian and English-language fake news about the pandemic have a number of linguistic patterns, knowing which one can predict the truth or falsity of news content of this type in the information space and, accordingly, prevent its dissemination. In particular, such principles include the use of imperative constructions, stylistic means of expression in news texts (e.g., metaphors); the presence of a trigger in informational headlines, as well as the generation of short text messages accompanying memes that can influence the affective actions of media audiences in their interaction with Russian and English-language media resources. Further prospects for the study of fake news texts about COVID-19 and epidemics in general are identified to explore the phenomenon of disinformation and post-truth and their impact on media reality.
Teacher success in context of modern principles of Russian higher education
Authors: Shvedov Igor
Published: March 2024

The problems of new media in the mass communication system are becoming more and more urgent today due to the fact that the established discourse about the media and the familiar language of their description no longer cope with their functions. The emergence of new media is a consequence of widespread digitalization. The significance of the research in the raised issues lies in the fact that the characteristics of new media are considered in detail, terms that were not previously correlated with the theory of communication are given. It is emphasized that today the philosophical and cultural foundations of the phenomenon of new media are insufficiently reflected, although they are of great interest from the point of view of the key turning points of modern society. The article presents a literary review, an interpretation of the basic concepts is given, the theoretical and methodological base is clarified, the most striking characteristics of new media are highlighted and analyzed.
Seven basic characteristics of new media are considered, which not only give an idea of the specifics of the subject under study, but also represent its significant differences from the general concept of «media» in the culture of mass communications. Taking into account the attempt to deepen the understanding of the subject of the study, it is summarized that new media constantly and daily limit and redefine the identity and common features of digital communities, as well as user relationships within them, which in turn changes social and cultural interactions.
The author emphasizes that if researchers use the term new media only as well-established and intuitive, without seeing the need to describe its characteristics, then there is a danger of reducing the research search to a superficial perception of changes in the culture of mass communications, while missing important empirical information. The results obtained contribute to the development of the theory of culture of mass communication and have scientific and practical significance for the ideological, educational and cultural spheres of society.
Urban identity in the value paradigm modern Russian society
Authors: Petrulevich Irina
Published: March 2024

The article is devoted to urban identity as a socio-cultural, psychological and emotional construct determined by a number of factors. As a significant component of social identity, urban identity is determined by how strong an individual's social ties are, whether he is included in long-term stable social groups, which, in turn, forms an emotional assessment of such identity in relation to «his» and «strangers», as well as group values, social norms, stereotypes, behavioral patterns. The author of the article presents the characteristics of urban identity as a result of self-determination of personality, its socialization and adaptation in a particular urban space, in the process of assimilation and reproduction of cultural symbols, accepted norms, traditions, lifestyle of city residents. The relevance of the study of urban identity is determined by the peculiarities of the urban environment and urban lifestyle: the author of the article puts forward a tendency to increase the mobility of the population and a decrease in the role of physical space in the life of a modern person as factors that can create barriers to the formation of a conscious urban identity. The article proves that the self-consciousness and personal identity of city residents are largely determined by various aspects of the cultural space of the city. The impossibility of perceiving urban space in its integrity does not hinder personal identity and self-determination, and the possibility of implementing the social practices of its residents forms their emotional attachment to the city. The formation of urban identity is conditioned by stable, changeable and symbolic factors. The author of the article also identifies parameters that allow assessing the degree of urban identity, among which the uniqueness of the city, identity and positivity of its perception play a decisive role in modern Russian society, which, in turn, determines in many ways the practical potential of urban identity. The conclusion is made about the importance of urban identity among other values of Russians, because active emotional experience and active embodiment of the urban identity of individuals and social groups contributes to the comprehensive economic, social and political development of modern Russian society.
Art journalism: formation of aesthetic taste or satisfying consumer demand?
Authors: Sorokina Tatʹyana
Published: March 2024

The article is devoted to the consideration of the dual nature of art journalism, manifested in the trajectories of its development and the corresponding functions in the modern media space — cultural-educational and information-advertising. The author of the article interprets art journalism as a sphere of professional activity, the purpose of which is to form the aesthetic taste of the target audience and convey a set of values that have universal and national significance. Arts journalism is increasingly targeting a wider audience, as evidenced by trends towards deliberate simplification of text and increasing entertainment value. At the same time, the goals of art journalism — the preservation of cultural and national values, the comprehensive development of man, his education based on examples of world culture — are embodied in the implementation of the cultural and educational function of art journalism and, as a consequence, in the development of aesthetic taste using its tools and means. In an effort to satisfy the needs of the target audience for information about facts and cultural events, about works of various types of art, art journalism also implements an information and advertising function. The intentionality of art journalism is characteristic of both trajectories of its development in the modern media space: the formation of ideas, positions, and opinions naturally determines the emergence of expected emotional states in the addressee. The article proves that the information and advertising trajectory of art journalism organically complements the cultural and educational one: in any of the areas studied, the addressee is able to expand his cognitive and emotional experience in the cultural space, possessing creative potential. The cultural and educational trajectory of the development of art journalism cannot be implemented outside of information and entertainment: expanding the intended target audience by attracting attention to cultural and artistic events contributes to the representation of the news occasion from the perspective of organizing leisure time, deepening knowledge about a particular work of art or cultural figure and, as a result, ensuring and maintaining cultural balance in society

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: There is a lack of valid and specific tools to measure chronic constipation severity in Brazil. AIMS: To validate the Constipation Scoring System for Brazilian spoken Portuguese. METHODS: Translation, cultural adaptation, and validation itself (reliability and convergent and divergent validation). Translation: definitive version from the original version’s translation and evaluation by specialists. Cultural adaptation: score content analysis of the definitive version, as an interview to patients. Interobserver reliability: application by two researchers on the same day. Intraobserver reliability: same researcher at different times, in a 7-day interval. Divergent validation: non-constipated volunteers. Convergent validation: two groups, good response to clinical treatment and refractory to treatment. RESULTS: Cultural adaptation: 81 patients, 89% female, with mean age of 55 and seven years of schooling, and overall content validity index was 96.5%. Inter and intraobserver reliability analysis: 60 patients, 86.7% female, mean age of 56 and six years of schooling, and the respective intraclass correlation coefficients were 0.991 and 0.987, p<0.001. Divergent validation: 40 volunteers, 25 male, mean age of 49 years, and the mean global score was 2. Convergent validation of patients with good response to clinical treatment: 47 patients, 39 female, mean age of 60 and six years of schooling, and the pre- and post-treatment scores were 19 and 8, respectively (p<0.001). Convergent validation of refractory to clinical treatment patients: 75 patients, 70 female, mean age of 53 and seven years of schooling, and the global average score was 22. CONCLUSIONS: The Constipation Scoring System (Índice de Gravidade da Constipação Intestinal) validated for the Brazilian population is a reliable instrument for measuring the severity of intestinal chronic constipation.

Objetivo: examinar la perspectiva del equipo de enfermería sobre las repercusiones del movimiento de pacientes (admisiones, traslados y altas) en la organización del trabajo y en la prestación de cuidados. Método: estudio cualitativo utilizando la técnica de grupo focal llevado a cabo con 23 profesionales, incluyendo 12 enfermeros, ocho técnicos y tres auxiliares de enfermería de tres unidades de internación de un hospital universitario del interior de São Paulo. Se realizaron cuatro encuentros entre noviembre de 2021 y marzo de 2022. Los relatos fueron analizados en la modalidad temática con la ayuda del software MAXQDA. Resultados: surgieron dos categorías temáticas: la influencia de factores estructurales y de la organización del trabajo en el movimiento intrahospitalario de pacientes; y, el movimiento de pacientes demanda tiempo, genera sobrecarga de trabajo e interfiere en la prestación de cuidados. Conclusión: el volumen de movimientos de pacientes asociado a demandas imprevistas, complejidad asistencial e insuficiencia de personal y de recursos repercute negativamente en la prestación del cuidado con riesgos clínicos y sobrecarga laboral. Los hallazgos permiten mejorar la regulación de las entradas y salidas de pacientes en las unidades, la organización del trabajo y la gestión del cuidado, evitando riesgos clínicos, retrasos, omisiones y sobrecarga laboral.
Citacionismo como erudição acadêmica e como ação estratégica
Authors: Vizeu Fabio
Published: March 2024

Resumo A erudição é uma característica representativa para o acadêmico. Ela marca a prosa acadêmica com uma aura de sofisticação e elitização intelectual. Quando a erudição se manifesta na prática do citacionismo, pode constituir-se como uma estratégia de distorção comunicativa instrumentalizada para evitar ou minimizar o debate ou a argumentação mais acurada. Discutir esse problema específico é o objetivo deste ensaio. Para articular essa crítica, consideramos a perspectiva filosófico-sociológica de Habermas, segundo a qual a comunicação constitui um processo de troca de significados intersubjetivos, ao mesmo tempo que se estabelece como um agir estratégico de intervenção no mundo. Nesse sentido, o citacionismo é visto como um importante mecanismo que utiliza especificidades do léxico especializado do mundo acadêmico com o fim de dominação e influência, a despeito da ininteligibilidade derivada deste processo.
A evolução na divulgação de práticas de compliance por companhias abertas brasileiras no período “Lava Jato”

Published: March 2024

Resumo O estudo investiga a evolução na divulgação de compliance por companhias abertas brasileiras no contexto da Lava Jato, comparando o ano de início com o último ano de protagonismo da operação. Com base no paradigma interpretativista, foram analisados os relatórios de administração de 104 companhias listadas no segmento Novo Mercado da B3, de 2014 a 2019, por meio da técnica de análise de conteúdo. Os achados indicaram um substancial aumento na divulgação de compliance nas companhias analisadas, principalmente em categorias como “política anticorrupção”, “cultura organizacional de compliance”, “programas e processos internos de compliance” e “legislação e normas de compliance”. Revelou-se que a divulgação de práticas de monitoramento e gestão de riscos exerceram um relevante papel nas práticas voluntárias de divulgação de compliance dessas entidades. O destacado aumento do disclosure de compliance por companhias com forte relacionamento com o poder público sugere que pressões coercitivas de caráter governamental tendem a maximizar a adoção de práticas de compliance e sua divulgação. Os achados contribuem em termos teóricos ao identificar o avanço na divulgação voluntária do compliance como estratégia de resposta a pressões institucionais, com maior efeito em companhias expostas a pressões coercitivas governamentais. Em termos práticos, contribui ao revelar as categorias de compliance enfatizadas nas divulgações de companhias nacionais, auxiliando elaboradores de relatórios corporativos e informando demais agentes econômicos. De forma social, o aumento da divulgação de compliance aponta avanços na criação de condições que visam aumentar a confiança dos agentes econômicos, favorecendo o crescimento econômico.
Intellectual piracy in management research practices
Authors: Bispo Marcelo de Souza , Vieira Almir Martins
Published: March 2024

Abstract This essay presents the concept of Intellectual Piracy and its ethical-legal and formative consequences in the academic field of Administration. This is an essay on a practice identified by the authors but little discussed in academia. Intellectual piracy is a subtle form of plagiarism usually not identified by software. It is the practice of copying a theoretical systematization or idea produced by another person without citing it. This practice becomes evident not by copying words or phrases but by using a set of authors (even citations) used in another work as if the choices and theoretical systematization were original. Our contribution is to offer a concept capable of defining a practice of plagiarism that is not yet present in the literature on the subject in question. We conclude that intellectual piracy is an ethical-legal problem and a reflection of deficiencies in training researchers concerning aspects such as authorship, originality, theorization, and theory in scientific practice.
Easy-to-obtain biological soil quality indicators for monitoring agroecological corn cultivation

Published: March 2024

ABSTRACT The soil is a natural resource of biotic and abiotic combinations affected by management and may significantly change their functionality. This study evaluates the impact of agricultural practices adopted under ecologically based management on corn cultivation compared with an adjacent native forest area. The study was developed in the experimental areas and laboratories of the Cascata Experimental Station - Embrapa Clima Temperado, Pelotas/ RS. The diversity of edaphic fauna was obtained by the PROVID method, which resulted in similarity in both environments. It was observed that the Shannon diversity index and Pielou equitability index were significantly higher in corn cultivation. Compared to Renyi's diversity profile, the edaphic fauna in corn presented a higher index of species than in the native forest (α<2), attributed to a greater source of food for some communities. The bait-lamina methodology was used for the feeding activity of the soil biota, evidencing an average activity in corn approximately 60% higher compared to the forest (48.14%). These indexes must be associated with the average content of OM present in the soil, being 6.04% in the forest and 2.39% in the corn, because when analyzed by the T-test, they present significant levels for the feeding activity. It is concluded that the assessment of the impact of agricultural practices adopted under ecologically based management in corn cultivation resulted in no significant difference when compared with the adjacent native forest area since levels of similarity between the environments were identified concerning biological parameters of the soil.

ABSTRACT Sweet sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.) is a promising energy crop for bioethanol production. This study aimed to investigate the influence of genetic structure on the adaptability and phenotypic stability of sweet sorghum lines and hybrids regarding the main agro-industrial traits, as well as selecting hybrids that associate high ethanol yield and yield stability in different growing environments. A total of 45 genotypes were evaluated in experiments conducted in a 5×9 triple alpha lattice design in three locations in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The following traits were measured: fresh matter production, juice extraction percentage, total soluble solids content, tons of Brix per hectare, and ethanol production. Adaptability and phenotypic stability were assessed by the Wricke and Annicchiarico methods. Sweet sorghum adaptability and phenotypic stability depend on genotype genetic structure, with hybrids being more stable than parental lines. Additionally, H2x9 and H3x8 were the most promising hybrids.
