Cross-regional comparison of drought impacts and social responses: case studies in Germany and Jing-Jin-Ji Region (China) since the 19th century
Authors: Zhang Diyang , Glaser Rüdiger , Kahle Michael
Published: January 2025

Abstract. Droughts, as one of the costliest weather-related disasters, have been and will continue to be part of the common human experience. However, insufficient endeavors have been made to investigate the similarities and differences in drought-society interactions under different climatic systems and sociocultural contexts. In light of this, this study took Germany and the Jing-Jin-Ji Region (China) as examples, where have abundant written documents and distinct socio-environmental contexts, and compared drought impacts and social responses in three pairs of extreme drought events since the 19th century. Based on area-specific reconstructions of dry-wet indices and multilingual written documents, drought events were first selected according to the relative extremity of precipitation deficits within each study area, then depicted in terms of five impact categories and five response attributes presented in a common impact-response structural framework, and finally compared with particular attention to the unchanging nature and dynamics of drought-society interactions during the transformation from agrarian to modern societies. The comparisons revealed that: (1) Abnormally dry and hot conditions, vegetation damage, unsatisfactory crop performance, insufficient river flow, food insecurity, and social instability were drought impacts independent of climate systems (i.e., marine climate and monsoon climate) and were well documented by different societies regardless of their severity. (2) Tackling socioeconomic issues within drought-stricken areas by balancing the supply and demand of scarce goods was a common responding preference of societies under different circumstances. In this case, actions were often reactive and needed the participation of governments. (3) The diversification of documented drought manifestations in the socioeconomic category was observed in both study areas as society developed, owing to increasingly complicated economic sectors and the wider range of social concerns. (4) Early and multiple reactive interventions reduced the threat of food insecurity to individual survival in recent droughts, as they successfully stopped the development from harvest failures to food crises. However, in any of the study areas, they have not been sufficient to eliminate survival-threatening manifestations of compound drought-heatwave events with regard to water security (i.e., drinking water scarcity) and health (i.e., morality in vulnerable populations). The results not only provided empirical evidence of climate-environment-society nexus that go beyond period-specific experiences but also demonstrated the feasibility of conducting documentary-based cross-regional comparative studies in spite of linguistic differences.

Abstract. Shifting phosphorus (P) dynamics after wildfires can have cascading impacts from terrestrial to aquatic environments. However, it is unclear if post-fire responses are primarily driven by changes to the molecular composition of the charred material or from the transport of P-containing compounds. We used laboratory leaching experiments of Douglas-fir forest and sagebrush shrubland chars to examine how the potential mobility of P compounds is influenced by different burn severities. Burning produced a 6.9- and 29- fold increase in particulate P mobilization, but a 3.8- and 30.5- fold decrease in aqueous P released for Douglas-fir forest and sagebrush shrubland, respectively. P compound mobilization in the particulate phase was controlled by solid char total P concentrations while the aqueous phase was driven by solubility changes of molecular species. Nuclear magnetic resonance and X-ray absorption near edge structure on the solid chars indicated that organic orthophosphate monoester and diester species were thermally mineralized to inorganic P moieties with burning in both vegetation types. This coincided with the production of calcium- and magnesium-bound inorganic P compounds. With increasing burn severity there were systematic shifts in P concentration and composition— higher severity chars mobilized P compounds in the particulate phase, although the magnitude of change was vegetation specific. Our results indicate a post-fire transformation to both the composition of the solid charred material and to how P compounds are mobilized, which may influence its environmental cycling and fate.

Abstract. The Last Interglacial (LIG) period, approximately 130,000 to 115,000 years ago, represents one of the warmest intervals in the past 800,000 years. Here we simulate water isotopes in precipitation in Antarctica and the Arctic during the LIG, using three isotope-enabled atmosphere-ocean coupled climate models: HadCM3, MPI-ESM-wiso, and GISS-E2.1. These models were run following the Paleoclimate Modelling Intercomparison Project, phase 4 (PMIP4) protocol for the LIG at 127 ka (kilo-years ago), supplemented by a 3000-year Heinrich Stadial 11 (H11) experiment run with HadCM3. The long H11 simulation has meltwater from the Northern Hemisphere applied to the North Atlantic which causes large-scale changes in ocean circulation including cooling in the North Atlantic and Arctic and warming in the Southern and Global Ocean. We find that the standard 127 ka simulations do not capture the observed Antarctic warming and sea ice reduction in the Southern Ocean and Antarctic regions, but they capture around half of the warming in the Arctic. The H11 simulations align better with observations: they capture more than 80 % of the warming, sea ice loss, and δ18O changes for both Greenland and Antarctica. Decomposition of seasonal δ18O drivers highlights the dominant role of sea-ice retreat and associated changes in precipitation seasonality in influencing isotopic values in all simulations, alongside a small common response to orbital forcing. We use the H11 and multi-model 127 k simulations together to infer LIG surface air temperature (SAT) changes based on ice core measurements. The peak inferred LIG Greenland SAT increase is +2.89 ± 1.32 K at the NEEM ice core site. This is less than half the previously inferred warming. Peak inferred LIG Antarctic SAT increases are +4.39 ± 1.45 K at EDC, dropping to +1.67 ± 3.67 K at TALDICE. These calculated warming values are from climate effects alone, and do not take account of any ice flow or site elevation related impacts. Coastal sites in Greenland and Antarctica appear to have experienced less warming compared with higher central regions.
Assimilation of temperature and relative humidity observations from personal weather stations in AROME-France

Published: January 2025

Abstract. Personal weather station (PWS) networks owned by citizens now provide near-surface observations at a spatial density unattainable with standard weather stations (SWSs) deployed by national meteorological services. This article aims to assess the benefits of assimilating PWS observations of screen-level temperature and relative humidity in the AROME-France model in the same framework of experiments carried out to assimilate PWS observations of surface pressure in a previous work. Several methods for pre-processing these observations, in addition to the usual data assimilation (DA) screening, are evaluated and selected. After pre-processing, nearly 4700 PWS temperature and 4200 PWS relative humidity observations are assimilated per hour, representing 3 and 6 times more than SWS observations, respectively. Separate assimilation of each variable in the atmosphere with the three-dimensional ensemble variational (3DEnVar) DA scheme significantly reduces the root-mean-square deviation between SWS observations and forecasts of the assimilated variable at 2 m height above ground level up to 3 h of forecasts. Improvements to the near-surface temperature and relative humidity fields analysed are shown for a sea breeze case during a heatwave and a fog episode. However, degradation of short-range forecasts are found when PWS observations are assimilated with the current operational 3DVar DA scheme in the atmosphere or jointly in the atmosphere and at the surface with 3DEnVar and optimal interpolation DA schemes. These results demonstrate that the benefit of assimilating PWS temperature and relative humidity observations can be highly dependent on the DA schemes and settings employed.

Authors: Lima Elimária Oliveira , Silva Claudiane Gusmão Azevedo da
Published: January 2025

Através deste trabalho procuramos verificar as atitudes linguísticas dos falantes barra-cordenses frente às formas de segunda pessoa do singular em uso no português brasileiro. Nesse sentido, focalizamos os pronomes tu e você, para saber como são avaliados, positiva ou negativamente, pela comunidade de fala de Barra do Corda-MA. Durante as entrevistas, as formas senhor/senhora também apareceram com certa frequência e foram inseridas na análise. Verificamos, ainda, qual a forma de segunda pessoa do singular os barra-cordenses afirmam utilizar em diferentes situações de interação, tendo como referência as relações sociais simétricas e assimétricas. Para cumprir com o objetivo proposto nesta pesquisa, aplicamos um teste de avaliação a 26 falantes estratificados conforme as faixas etárias de 18 a 35 anos, de 36 a 55 anos e a partir de 56 anos, com níveis de escolarização de ensino fundamental, ensino médio e ensino superior, de sexo feminino e masculino, a fim de verificar, também, se estes fatores influenciam na escolha de uma ou da outra forma pronominal. A partir dos resultados obtidos, constatou-se que os falantes barra-cordenses, apesar de acharem melhor e mais bonita a forma você, usam mais o pronome tu.
Haplologia variável e estilos contextuais no português de Porto Alegre
Authors: Battisti Elisa , Soares Rafaela Carneiro
Published: January 2025

A haplologia sintática variável (muito diferente::mui’diferente, morto de fome::mor’de fome) no português de Porto Alegre, objeto de interesse do artigo, é investigada em dados de produção linguística na perspectiva da sociolinguística variacionista (LABOV, 1972, 1994, 2001a, 2010). O objetivo é testar a hipótese de que os estilos contextuais de fala na entrevista sociolinguística, propostos por Labov (2001b), tenham efeito sobre a haplologia, favorecida na fala casual, inibida na fala cuidada. A análise quantitativa de dados levantados de dezesseis entrevistas sociolinguísticas do LínguaPOA (2015-2019), efetuada em modelos de regressão logística de efeitos mistos na plataforma R (R Core Team, 2023), não confirma a hipótese. A haplologia correlaciona-se à constituência da sílaba-alvo, à zona de residência e à renda domiciliar do informante: é favorecida por sílabas abertas, pelas zonas central e sul e por maiores níveis de renda. O exame qualitativo dos dados mostra que a maior parte das ocorrências de haplologia consta em trechos no estilo residual e sugere que esse fato não tem a ver com o estilo em si, mas com o desenho das entrevistas do LínguaPOA (BATTISTI et al., 2021). Revela também variação intraindividual em contextos idênticos ou similares, explicada pelas atividades de fala realizadas (GUMPERZ, 2002; GÖRSKI; COELHO; SOUZA, 2014) e pela proeminência relativa das palavras nos contextos de haplologia (COLLISCHONN, 2007).
O paradigma pronominal na fala de estudantes sergipanos
Authors: Siqueira Manoel , Sousa Marta Deysiane Alves Faria
Published: January 2025

A entrada de novos pronomes, como você e a gente, resultou em rearranjos no paradigma pronominal da variedade brasileira da língua, distanciando-se do padrão de uso europeu. Isso se deve ao fato de o Brasil ser um país vasto que apresenta diversidade linguística, fruto de sua pluralidade social, histórica e regional. A variedade de língua falada no estado de Sergipe, por exemplo, apresenta comportamentos distintos de outras variedades do português brasileiro (PB). Neste artigo, objetivamos sistematizar resultados de pesquisas sociolinguísticas que versem sobre o paradigma pronominal do PB quanto aos pronomes pessoais (retos e oblíquos) e seus respectivos possessivos, cujas amostras linguísticas lidam com fala de estudantes e foram retiradas do banco de dados Falares Sergipanos (FREITAG, 2013). Os resultados evidenciam uma grande frequência para variantes inovadoras, como você, seu e a gente, como também para a manutenção de variantes conservadoras, como te e nosso, além de uma distribuição similar para os possessivos de 3P. Esperamos, por meio deste texto, contribuir com a agenda sociolinguística sobre o paradigma pronominal do PB, oferecendo uma visão da realidade linguística falada no estado de Sergipe.
Accessibility as a means to realising social justice in higher education: Interviews with user organisations and service-providers
Authors: Hermosa-Ramírez Irene , Arias-Badia Blanca
Published: January 2025

Media Accessibility research – “concerning access to media and non-media objects, services and environments through media solutions, for any person who cannot or would not be able to [...] access them in their original form” (Greco, 2019, p. 18) – has thus far focused mostly on aspects related to cultural life. However, access services such as subtitles, sign language interpreting and web accessibility are also deployed in higher education, a context where people with sensory disabilities are still underrepresented. The present article aims to assess accessibility needs and current barriers in the context of higher education in Spain. To gain a better understanding of access provision in universities and following a user-centred approach, the article reports on the results of semi-structured interviews with five disabled people organisations and two accessibility professionals. The thematic analysis of the interviews reveals several areas of concern: a generalised need for accessibility literacy, both required at a societal level and at an individual level (especially on the part of university staff), a prevalence of invisible work among students with disabilities who have to take extra steps to have their accessibility needs met, and the improvable working conditions of accessibility professionals providing services in the context of higher education.
Social justice and translator training and education in a time of (non-)equitable tech
Authors: Desjardins Renée , Florentin Valerie
Published: January 2025

Social justice refers to the equitable distribution of resources, opportunities, and rights in society. Social justice frameworks acknowledge that structural inequalities can hinder accessibility to education and that the use of and recourse to technology is not always ethical or equitable. As translator trainers with more than two decades of experience in higher education, we reflect on the nexus between technology, translator training, ethics, and social justice, and put forward a list of strategies with which to humanize translator training or education and professional practice. We focus on Canada and draw from both a literature review using the Translation Studies Bibliography which shows that research on the subject of translator training or education and social justice is currently underdeveloped. We also draw from two media scans (conducted from November 2022 to October 2023) on the topics of higher education, translator training, social justice, and technological disruption and related digital divides, with a specific focus on machine translation and artificial intelligence. Along with other demolinguistic data from the 2021 Canadian Census, the review and scans contextualize the list of pedagogical recommendations and strategies we propose. We adopt the position that social justice should take precedence in the way we think about translator training and develop curricula rather than allowing market forces and the tech industry to determine training priorities and objectives. Artificial intelligence and other new(er) technologies can have pedagogical merit in higher education and in translator training, but it is imperative that we consider how and when to use the tools and to focus on issues that go beyond plagiarism and student surveillance. We therefore argue in favour of human, humane, and humanising translation in and beyond Canada and this means advocating and developing pedagogical strategies and curricula that align with the ethos of social justice.
Students Language Attitudes Towards Acehnese Language: a Study on the Retention and Threat of Regional Language Extinction
Authors: Hayati Cut Intan , Fahrurrazi Fahrurrazi , Iqbal Muhammad , Wahdaniah Wahdaniah
Published: January 2025

Language attitudes play a vital role in maintaining or threatening the sustainability of a language. This study examines the language attitudes of students towards the Acehnese language by focusing on the potential for preservation and the threat of extinction of regional languages. The research was conducted on 400 students from 8 Islamic boarding schools in Lhokseumawe City and North Aceh who were randomly selected, including 4 modern dayahs and 4 traditional dayahs. Using Garvin and Mathiot's theory of language attitudes, this study evaluated three main aspects: language fidelity, language pride, and awareness of language norms. With the Mix Method approach, qualitative data is analyzed to provide in-depth descriptions, while quantitative data is processed using SPSS for statistical analysis. The results showed that the attitude of speaking Acehnese was positive, with average scores in the aspects of loyalty (67%), pride (59%), and awareness (66%). Interestingly, traditional dayah shows a higher level of language retention than modern dayah, with percentages of loyalty (73%), pride (63%), and awareness (72%). On the contrary, modern dayah students show lower scores in these three aspects. This research reinforces the importance of language preservation efforts through a community-based approach and education, as well as a reminder that language is a cultural bridge, not just a means of communication.

SURGICAL RISK ASSESSMENT IN PATIENTS WITH LIVER CIRRHOSIS – A LITERATURE REVIEW
Authors:   Department of Surgical diseases, Faculty of Medicine, Medical University Pleven, Bulgaria., Merashka Elina
Published: January 2025

Patients with chronic liver injury and liver cirrhosis develop disease-specific pathophysiological abnormalities. These specific findings compromise the functional activity of other organs and systems, leading to poor postoperative outcomes and increased morbidity and mortality rates in this population of patients. This requires a thorough analysis of the aforementioned pathophysiological abnormalities in order to optimize the patient's clinical condition in the preoperative period and to improve their perioperative performance status.
The impaired physiological reserves in patients with liver cirrhosis necessitate a detailed assessment of the surgical risk in each specific patient. For this purpose, there are multiple classification and scoring systems for assessment – ​​Child-Pugh – Turcotte (CPT), Model of end-stage liver disease (MELD), Model of end-stage liver disease – Na (MELD – Na), Albumin – Bilirubin score (ALBI), each with specific indications for clinical use. This literature review on the topic examines the pathophysiological changes in patients with liver cirrhosis and the above-mentioned classification systems for risk assessment, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of each of them.

Anatomical and pathological findings in longlived female Bubalus bubalis
Authors: Pérez-Gil Rosaura , Salas Yaritza , Márquez Adelys , Gavidia Oriana
Published: January 2025

The objective of this work was to describe the anatomical and pathological findings in female, long-lived Bubalus buba lis from Portuguesa state, Venezuela. The age of 10 females was determined using the dental chronometry technique. Rectal palpation was performed to detect pregnancy. The udder integrity was evaluated, and days open between pregnancies were calculated. The animals were sent to slaughter. The ages of buffaloes were between 9 and 19 years old, and none of them were pregnant. In addition, 30% presented anomalies in the nipples and had a mean of 252 days open. At the slaugh-terhouse, the organs were collected: lung, mediastinal lymph nodes, heart, liver, kidney, spleen, and uterus. A 10% buffered formaldehyde solution was used for fixing and transporting the tissues. Later on, histological slices and routine HE stains were performed for examination using an optical microscope. The observed lesions, in percentage (%), were the following: chronic lymphoproliferative pneumonia (60), chronic lympho-histiocytic hyperplastic pericarditis (90), concentric cardiac hypertrophy (90), sarcocystosis (20) and lymphoid hyperplasia in the mediastinal lymph node (40). In the spleen: hemosiderosis (40), hemorrhage (40), lymphoid depletion (40), chronic multifocal non- suppurative hepatitis (70). In the kidney: interstitial lymphoplasmacytic membrane-proliferative glomerulonephritis (60), polycystic kidney (40), parenchymal atrophy (40), and non-suppurative chronic interstitial nephritis (90). In the reproductive organs: mild non-suppurative chronic cervicitis (70), mild non- suppurative chronic endometritis with severe glandular atrophy (70), oviduct fibroplasia (50), ovarian atrophy (80) and persistent corpus luteum (20). Severe restrictive pericarditis, which led to cardiac remodeling as a progressive response to acute or chronic damage of an etiology not studied in this investigation, accompanied by hypertrophy of the ventricles, were changes in the organ’s shape that could have compromised its functioning. These anatomopathological findings in long-lived female Bubalus bubalis propose the need to study long-lived animals that are sacrificed or die naturally to obtain information on organ damage that can contribute to establishing the basis for the possible causes of low productivity and fertility. This species, considered resistant to tropical diseases, is resilient enough to survive up to 19 years, some with severe damage to vital organs. Finally, this research raises the need to keep productive, reproductive, and health records during the animal’s life, accompanied by results of routine tests carried out by qualified personnel.
“A Lie about Origin”
Authors: Bassi Karen
Published: January 2025

In Book 3 of Plato’s Republic, Socrates argues for what he calls "a lie about origin" (γενναῖον ψεῦδος, 414b-d). According to this lie, classes of citizens in Kallipolis were originally fashioned under the earth and differentiated by a hierarchy of metals (gold, silver, iron and brass, 414e-415c). In this paper, I read Socrates’ “lie about origin” in light of Derrida’s reading of Freud in Archive Fever, focused on the intersection of archaeology, epistemology and eschatology. Anticipating the archê of archaeology by anachronism, the myth of the metallic men questions first of all the predictive capability of origin stories. Subject to hesitation but repeated from generation to generation, Socrates’ “lie about origin” also reflects on the recent global crisis. In a pandemic whose beginning and end are unknowable and unpredictable, when the passing of time is measured in death’s approach (à venir), and when we are living in a so-called “post-truth” world, the “lie about origin” examines the conditions under which the past justifies a future (l’avenir). In Derrida’s phrase, it tests the “truth of delusion” (AF 86).

‘Kept By God’s Hand’: The continuing Presbyterian Church of Western Australia
Authors: Bonnington Stuart
Published: January 2025

What were the factors at work that saw only a tiny continuing Presbyterian minority in Western Australia emerge through the 1960s and 1970s? Why did the one stream of conservative Presbyterianism split in two in the decade before constitutional Church Union occurred in 1974? Why was the continuing Presbyterian Church in Western Australia so small and yet continued on in 1977? This article seeks to provide some answers to these questions by briefly considering certain key figures and key events in the years leading up to and following the two votes on Church Union (1972, 1973) that delineated the uniting Presbyterians, the continuing Presbyterians and the Westminster Presbyterians in Western Australia who went their separate ways in 1977.

Mesquite forests Prosopis laevigata functions as a nourishment source mainly for beef cattle.  This study was carried out in order to find if mesquite forests are affected by the grazing, particularly on nitrogen components due to its importance in the vegetal growth and tree development.  The objective of this study was to determine if the extensive grazing has influence over the concentration of the nitrogen components amino acids and proteins in mesquite forest.  Root and stem samples in adult trees were taken monthly during twelve months in two pure mesquite stands, one of them with grazing activity. The total soluble proteins (TSP) and total amino acids (TA) concentrations were determined by visible UV spectrophotometry. The results shown that grazing has assimilation effects in nitrogen components in trees of the mesquite wild populations. The root and stem where there is no grazing activities showed greater concentrations of nitrogen components in comparison with the site where grazing is done as an anthropogenic activity.

Published: January 2025

O Coaching Digital há algum tempo tem deixado de ser apenas o termo empregado ao que faz o profissional Coach no ambiente virtual e tem passado a ser conhecido também como uma forma de expressão comunicativa de certos grupos nas redes sociais, sendo assim, no campo dos estudos da linguagem é possível associar estes acontecimentos com o que Marcuschi (2004) intitula de gêneros digitais emergentes. De maneira geral, o objetivo deste trabalho foi identificar o Coaching Digital como gênero da linguagem através da análise de seus movimentos retóricos mais recorrentes. Foi usada como aporte teórico-metodológico a abordagem sociorretórica de Swales (1990) que visa a análise dos gêneros levando em consideração os movimentos retóricos recorrentes nos textos. O corpus foi constituído de dez reels de perfis de coaches na rede social Instagram. Esta investigação procura contribuir para a concepção de que existe uma marca, textual e discursiva, que é característica deste segmento e que é facilmente reconhecida em meio aos tantos outros gêneros digitais existentes, já categorizados anteriormente.

As fundações constituem um dos elementos estruturais mais importantes dos edifícios. Para o seu dimensionamento, faz-se necessário um amplo conhecimento das ações provenientes da estrutura e das características do solo de apoio. Nas situações em que a fundação apresenta manifestações patológicas, ou ocorreu um acréscimo de área na edificação, ou até mesmo a mudança de uso da construção, é necessário avaliar o projeto de fundações para garantir a segurança adequada. O reforço de fundações existentes ou até mesmo sua substituição tem como objetivo ampliar a segurança da fundação original, em fase de desempenho insatisfatório ou devido a um incremento do carregamento atuante decorrente de mudanças no uso da edificação ou da ampliação de áreas não previstas no projeto original. Neste trabalho, o objetivo foi avaliar a eficiência do reforço de fundação em um edifício residencial devido ao aumento da área de apoio. Ao final, a edificação permaneceu estável, embora não houve monitoramento posterior, não se verificou indícios de recalques, mostrando a eficiência da técnica de reforço empregada.

A abordagem STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) é um importante instrumento, em que o processo de aprendizado ocorre por meio do contato direto do estudante com o objeto real do aprendizado. Esta abordagem pode ser utilizada nos processos educativos de estudantes de diferentes faixas etárias. Considerando que a educação de crianças é fundamental na formação de indivíduos, e que sua qualidade implica nos seus processos educativos por toda vida, é importante avaliar a efetividade do uso da abordagem STEAM neste grupo etário. Este artigo tem como propósito apresentar e analisar a aplicação da abordagem STEAM no ensino de condutividade elétrica para um total de 39 estudantes do 5º ano do ensino fundamental em uma escola particular de Minas Gerais. Por meio de uma aula experimental foi possível viabilizar o processo de aprendizagem, e em seguida colher as opiniões dos estudantes acerca do processo de ensino. Os resultados relevam além da eficácia no processo de transmissão e compartilhamento de conhecimento com os estudantes, o alto nível de engajamento e interesse deles, tendo em vista o caráter prático e desafiador da aula. Este artigo pode servir como instrumento de referência para a difusão da abordagem STEAM em diferentes disciplinas da educação de crianças.

A pesquisa desenvolvida tem por objetivo estudar as contribuições que a música pode agregar no processo de ressocialização do público privados de liberdade do Estado de Mato Grosso do Sul, promovendo reflexões destacando a música como mecanismo de ressocialização. Objetiva-se, para tanto, apontar através da análise dos documentos formativos utilizados pela Secretaria de Estado do Mato Grosso do Sul, como a música pode afetar diretamente na ressocialização dos privados de liberdade. O objetivo deste artigo é explorar o papel da música na formação humana, transformação pessoal, reintegração social e desenvolvimento emocional de indivíduos encarcerados e salientar a importância da educação musical na ressocialização dos privados de liberdade. Por se tratar de um projeto de pesquisa, a mesma será baseada em estudos de autor como por exemplo Swanwick, Keith. Música, mente e educação e Foucault, M. Vigiar e Punir: história da violência nas prisões entre outros pensadores que elaboraram trabalhos pertinentes ao assunto. Diante da pesquisa proposta, visou buscar novas discussões com o objetivo de fomentar reflexões sobre a importância da música no processo de ressocialização dos privados de liberdade e as contribuições que ela pode trazer a reinserção dos mesmos.

A Literacia em Saúde (LS) consiste no aprimoramento das habilidades cognitivas e sociais, competências das pessoas para entender, aplicar informações de saúde e adotar práticas de promoção da saúde. O objetivo é identificar as estratégias de LS para potencializar a assistência de enfermagem no âmbito da promoção de saúde. Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa da literatura, guiada pela pergunta “Quais são as estratégias de LS capaz de potencializar a assistência de enfermagem?”. A busca dos artigos foi realizada com os Descritores em Ciências da Saúde: letramento em saúde, literacia em saúde, assistência de enfermagem, promoção de saúde. Realizou-se a busca de artigos, publicados em 2024, na base de dados Biblioteca Virtual de Saúde (BVS), Bases de dados da enfermagem (BDENF), Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS), Centro Latino-Americano e do Caribe de Informação em Ciências da Saúde (BIREME). Adotou-se a análise descritiva e a interpretação de sentidos. Foram selecionados cinco artigos e elencados os núcleos de sentido: 1) A Educação em saúde (ED) e o Health Literacy Universal Precautions Toolkits ampliam o nível de literacia em saúde; 2) O Modelo Zarcadoolas alinha a LS às necessidades culturais e contextuais do paciente; 3) A educação permanente como potencializadora da LS na assistência de enfermagem; 4) A LS na Assistência de Enfermagem: abordagens integrativas, participativas e o método Teach-back. Iniciativas como ED, dentre outras ferramentas fortalecem a relação entre enfermeiros e pacientes e capacitam os indivíduos a tomarem decisões mais informadas e conscientes sobre sua saúde.

A evolução tecnológica e o surgimento de novos materiais impulsionam a busca por soluções mais eficientes e econômicas para os Sistemas Prediais de Água Quente. Um projeto bem elaborado melhora o desempenho, eficiência e custo-benefício, garantindo qualidade e segurança aos usuários. Com o objetivo de realizar um comparativo entre a utilização de tubulações de CPVC e PPR no Sistema Predial de Água Quente, realizou-se o dimensionamento de dois cenários possíveis para uma edificação de uso residencial. Após o dimensionamento, levantou-se o quantitativo de materiais e, tendo como base a planilha de referência de preços do SINAPI de dezembro de 2022, realizou-se o orçamento de custo de implantação para ambos os cenários, bem como a definição de alguns indicadores de produtividade. O comparativo avaliou as diferenças e particularidades de cada cenário empregado, além da sua eficiência, perda de carga nos trechos dos ramais e sub-ramais, diferença de custo dos materiais e mão de obra e a produtividade dos dois cenários, comparando o tempo de instalação. Por fim, colocando lado a lado os resultados obtidos, demonstrou-se que ambos os cenários apresentaram custo final quase equivalente; o cenário A, que utilizou tubulações de CPVC, apresentou um custo com material mais elevado, porém esse valor foi compensado pelo menor custo com instalação. Visto sua simplicidade de execução e velocidade de produção, a instalação com CPVC se mostrou a alternativa mais viável ao se considerar uma obra de porte residencial.
Decolonialidade: uma perspectiva para cidades africanas mais inclusivas?
Authors: Ali Miguel Abudo Momade
Published: January 2025

As políticas urbanas coloniais até hoje restringiram o acesso dos africanos em suas proprias cidades, transformando-as em locais de opressão e segregação racial, violando assim o direito a cidade. Este fenomeno tém se apresentado como consequencias da colonizaçao. Este facto nos enxergar a necessidade de trazer a tona decolonialidade para repensar estas cidades, especialmente para as cidades moçambicanas. O artigo tem como objectivo oferecer uma visão abrangente sobre a decolonialidade das cidades africanas, enfatizando a intersecção entre história, identidade e espaço urbano, destacando as lutas contínuas por reconhecimento e empoderamento nos panoramas urbanos africanos. O mestudo de caracter qualitativo, teórico.uns dos resultados obtidos indicam que a descolonização das cidades africanas não é um mero processo de resistências ou de libertação, passa necessariamente por uma conjuntura de conhecimento sobre a relações sociais e históricas das nossas cidades, conhecimento este que vai libertar e ajudar a enxergar as reais causas desse fenómeno de reprodução da cidades africanas na logica colonial dualista,
