Background: Two types of EBV (EBV1 and 2) have been shown to infect humans. This study aimed to detect the types of EBV that cause infectious mononucleosis and correlate these viral types with biochemical parameters (AST, ALT and GGT) in the metropolitan region of Belém from 2005 to 2016.
Methods: A total of 76 cases of infectious mononucleosis were processed at the Instituto Evandro Chagas, Ananindeua, Brazil. PCR was used to analyze the EBNA3C region for the recognition of EBV types. Biochemical testing (AST, ALT and GGT) was performed by the COBAS INTEGRA clinical biochemistry PLUS 400 / ROCHE automatic analyzer. The data were evaluated using the Statistical Package for Social Science - SPSS 17.0 and GraphPadPrism 7.0 for Windows (GraphPad software, San Diego, CA, USA). Results: EBV1 infection was observed in 71.1% (54/76) of individuals, among whom those > 14 years constituted 66.7% (36/54); the average age was 23 years, and the number of women infected was higher (61.1% [33/54]) than that of men 38.9%[21/54]). The symptoms/clinical signs observed in infection by EBV1 were cervical lymphadenopathy in 64.8% (35/54), fever in 63% (34/54), headache and arthralgia in 20.3% (11/54), and exanthema in 18.5% (10/54). Infection by EBV2 was observed in only 17.1% (13/76) of cases. Coinfection by EBV1 and EBV2, most frequently showing symptoms of fever and cervical lymphadenopathy, occurred in 66.7% (6/9) and 55.6% (5/9) of individuals.
Conclusion: EBV1 was predominant in 71% of clinical cases of infectious mononucleosis. The correlation of biochemical parameters in infection by EBV1, EBV2, and coinfection by EBV1/2 revealed a statistically significant difference in mean changes of EBV1 in individuals older than 14 years.
the Forecast of Weekly β-HCG and Progesterone for Early Pregnancy
Authors: Yang Yan , Duan Jie , Wang Yan , Du Xin
Published: July 2019

Background: Serum beta human chorionic gonadotropin (β-HCG) and progesterone levels are both monitored to assess the status of early pregnancy. Deviations from the expected levels of these hormones may indicate abnormal pregnancy. However; the relationship between progesterone levels and the magnitude of weekly β-HCG increases, as well as their combined predictive value for pregnancy outcome, is still debated. This study evaluated the predictive value of weekly serum β-HCG multiplication and progesterone levels on early pregnancy outcomes.
Methods: This retrospective study reviewed patients with pregnancy confirmed by β-HCG in our hospital. Weekly β-HCG and progesterone levels were analyzed and ultrasonography was performed as necessary to determine outcomes at 13 weeks gestation.
Results: There were 277 viable intrauterine pregnancies, 102 spontaneous abortions, and 59 ectopic pregnancies. At weeks 5-8, β-HCG was multiplied by 6.76, 6.21, 2.11, and 0.68 respectively. Logit models were established with the logarithm of HCG (LHCG) and progesterone as independent variables to predict viable intrauterine pregnancy. The sensitivity, specificity, and overall accuracy for the models were 85.9% and 90.3%, 44.72% and 72%, and 70.77% and 83.6%, respectively. When progesterone was ≥10 ng/ml, the sensitivity and specificity for predicting viable pregnancy were 90.25% and 72.04%, respectively. When progesterone was <10 ng/ml, the sensitivity and specificity for predicting ectopic pregnancy and complete abortion were 94.2% and 81.57%, respectively. Progesterone values were significantly different for viable pregnancy, abortion, and ectopic pregnancy (p<0.0001). A joint progesterone and LHCG model to predict viable pregnancy had 88.8% sensitivity, 75.2% specificity, and 83.8% overall prediction accuracy.
Conclusion: Weekly β-HCG multiplication and progesterone levels can predict early pregnancy outcomes individually or jointly.

Published: July 2019

Background

Health management information system is a system that used for routine data collection, analysis and utilization in health system. However, limited study done on routine health management information at individual health professionals level. Hence, the objective of this study was to assess utilization of routine health management information and associated factors among health professionals working at public health facilities of Hadiya Zone Southern Ethiopia.

Methods

A facility based cross-sectional survey was conducted among health professionals working at public health facilities of Hadia Zone from March 15-30, 2018. Using single population proportion formulae, 477participants were randomly selected. Data were collected by self-administered questioner. The data were entered in to Epi data version 3.1 and exported to SPSS version 23 for statistical analysis. Both bivariate (at P<0.25) and multi variable logistics regressions (at P<0.05) were used to identify predictors of utilization. Finally, the findings were presented using graphs, tables, narratives and descriptive numerical summary.

Results

The finding of this study revealed that utilization of health management information system among health workers was 54.9%. Knowledge [AOR=1.576, 95%CI (1.012, 2.454)], confidence level [AOR=1.873, 95%CI(1.264,2.776)], participation on data aggregation [AOR=2.289, 95% CI (1.293,4.05­)], register their daily data [AOR=2.529, 95% CI(1.023, 6.251)], and complexity of formats [AOR=1.971, 95%CI(1.29,3.011)] were found to be significantly associated with utilization of health information system at 95%confidence level.

Conclusion and recommendations

The overall health information utilization among health workers was low relative to other literature. Having good knowledge, high confidence level, participation on data aggregation, registering their daily data were independent predictors of information utilization. Therefore, stakeholders at each level should improve capacity of health care providers like providing training and regular mentorship related with information use.

Abstract
Background: Human adenoviruses (HAdV) has many kinds of serotypes, of which type 7 can cause severe respiratory disease, especially pneumonia. From Oct 1st to Jan 31st a little outbreak of this type occured in Jilin province of China and led to quite severe pneumonia, therefore we did this retrospective study to summarize the clinical and bronchoscopic features in order to help pediatric physicians get better view of the infection.
Methods: Nasopharyngeal swabs or bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were collected from pediatric patients who were diagnosed with pneumonia in our department of the First hospital of Jilin University from Oct 1st 2018 to Jan 31st 2019. Then use immunofluorescence method (detect the nasopharyngeal swabs) or the next-generation sequencing technology (detect the BALF) to clarify the pathogen.
Results: 53 children were confirmed to be infected with the HAdV, the mean age of infected children was 39.5(39.5±25.09）months, 56.6% were less than 36 months. The ratio rate between male and female was 1.3:1. Co-infection was quite common (75%), and happened in older group(p=.018). Bronchoscope was performed on 37 children, 45.9%(n=17) had micro-sputum-bolt in the small distal airway or in the BALF. With the help of the next-generation sequence technology, 11 were confirmed infected with HAdV-7. We followed up the patients for 6 months, 12 by CT and 41 by telephone call. In the CT follow-up group, 8 had “Mosaic sign” on lung CT, and 4 shows mild uneven ventilation. In telephone follow-up group 31 recovered well and had no symptoms, 10 had cough and tachypnea after moderate level of daily activities.
Conclusion: A) Compared with previous data in our hospital, in the winter this year, a little outbreak happened in Jilin province of China. B) We infer that HadV-7 may be the prevalent strain. C) Before we get accurate etiology diagnosis, combining with the clinical symptoms, accessory results, the micro-sputum-bolt seen in the BALF when doing the electronic bronchoscope can give us some hints of HAdV infection.

The immune system of the body’s mucous membranes plays a huge role in the development, maintenance and regulation of immune homeostasis, being an important component of the multi-component immune system. The structural basis of local immunity is the lymphatic tissue associated with the mucous membranes (MALT). There is now scientific evidence that the mucous membrane sections of different body systems interact closely with each other, subject to the same regulatory influences. This relationship is particularly close between the digestive and respiratory tract, and studies have shown that vaccination of the mucosa of one part increases the protective function of the mucosa of another part, and that virus infection leads to virus-specific concentrations of immunoglobulins in the secretion of the mucosa of another part. The impact on the intestinal microbiota can be a convenient tool to prevent not only gastrointestinal, but also respiratory diseases. In a number of works the clinical effects confirming expediency of probiotics application both at healthy, and at sick children are confirmed. An extremely important component of the local immune system is the antimicrobial peptides, which play a key role in the formation of the first line of defense against infections. AMP have a number of proven biological effects: antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal effects, and some have antitumor properties. Thus, the prospects for prevention and treatment of many infectious diseases lie in the new possibilities for influencing mucosal immunity.

Temporal eruption for children is a natural and physiological process. However, in some cases, it may be accompanied by numerous unpleasant symptoms, such as fever, decreased appetite, anxiety, sleep disorders and indigestion. These symptoms nonspecific and may occur in other somatic diseases. The Violation of stages, timing of eruption may be indicated a variety of somatic diseases and the development of further pathology of the dental-jaw system, as well as depends of the child`s constitutional characteristics. In this article we are presents an analysis, which dedicated problems of infant`s tooth eruption. Special attention is paid to the available means for the normalization of pathological symptoms, which accompanied the process of teething. Sometimes, parents try to alleviate the child`s condition and use different means independently, but uncontrolled and prolonged use of NSAIDs and local anesthetics can leads to allergic or toxic effects. Currently, with the help of research, it has been established that the use of herbal preparations is better, they are safer.

Published: July 2019

Background:

Planning for control of tuberculosis would need to screen and identify
individuals susceptible to TB. Due to the weakness of immune system in diabetic patients, it is
more likely for them to reactivate latent TB infection. Regarding the increasing number of diabetics
in the community, in this study efforts have been made to estimate the frequency of individuals
who have tuberculosis and diabetes mellitus (TB-DM) simultaneously, as it could help making
preventive decisions to reduce TB in this part of Iran.

Materials and Methods:

In this study, 329 cases of confirmed TB patients were divided into two
groups of diabetic and non-diabetic, then demographic information and clinical variables have
been compared between the two groups.

Results:

Among the examined subjects, 47 patients (14.29 %) had suffered from diabetes mellitus
and tuberculosis. All of the DM patients had pulmonary tuberculosis and 87.23% of them were
over the age of 50.

Conclusion:

: Majority of DM-TB patients were over 50 years of age and also more than half of
them were women. So it seems that for DM women over the age of 50, to detect tuberculosis,
screening tests such as PPD may be necessary.
Design Provisions for An Easy Intervention in the Future Life of a Structure. The Case of the Post- Byzantine Timber-roofed Basilicas of Troodos Area in Cyprus
Authors: Pelekanos Marios
Published: July 2019

Background:

This article deals with the timber- roofed basilicas of Troodos which were built from the mid-15th to the late-19th century AD. The most impressive constructional feature of these basilicas is the existence of two constructionally distinctive, but cooperating, parts of the roof. The basilicas’ construction system is mainly characterized by the ability to confront successfully the dynamic loads of an earthquake.

Objective:

This study investigates design provisions that can make easier any future intervention and retrofitting.

Methods

It is suggested that the design concept of these basilicas incorporated, among other objectives, a remarkable provision for an easy repair intervention and retrofitting, at a later stage during their life.

The timber- roofed basilicas of Troodos demonstrate a cleverly designed structure, where the co-operation between the roof and masonry plays an important role in their anti-seismic design.

Results and Conclusion:

The timber-roofed basilicas of Troodos present a remarkable design provision that made intervention an easy task, at any stage of their future life. This particular design concept seems to be valuable even today and can be easily adopted when designing modern contemporary structures with a long-term life objective.

Quality of Life Among Informal Caregivers of Patients With Degenerative Cervical Myelopathy: Cross-Sectional Questionnaire Study
Authors: Mowforth Oliver Daniel , Davies Benjamin Marshall , Kotter Mark Reinhard
Published: July 2019

Background

Degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) is a common, chronic neurological condition that severely affects individuals by causing a range of disabling symptoms, frequently at a time around the peak of their careers. Subsequently, individuals with DCM often become dependent on informal care arrangements. The significant economic contribution of informal care and its burden on care providers are becoming increasingly recognized.

Objective

This study aimed to measure the quality of life of DCM informal caregivers and provide preliminary insight into possible contributing factors.

Methods

Carers of individuals with DCM completed a Web-based survey hosted by Myelopathy.org, an international DCM charity. Carer quality of life was assessed in the form of caregiver happiness and 7 dimensions of carer burden using the Care-Related Quality of Life (CarerQol) instrument. The relationships between patient disease severity, patient pain, and carer quality of life were investigated. Differences in carer quality of life were assessed across patient and carer demographic groups, including between UK and US carers.

Results

DCM caregivers experienced substantial burden as a result of their caregiving (mean CarerQol-7D=64.1; 95% CI 58.8-69.5) and low happiness (mean CarerQol-VAS [Visual Analog Scale]=6.3; 95% CI 5.7-6.9). Burden was high and happiness was low in DCM carers when compared with a large, mixed-disease study of adult informal carers where CarerQol-7D was 79.1 and CarerQol-VAS was 7.1. No significant relationship was found between DCM carer quality of life and patient disease severity and pain scores. DCM carer quality of life appeared uniform across all patient and carer demographic groups.

Conclusions

Caring for individuals with DCM is associated with reduced quality of life in the form of significant burden and reduced happiness. Reductions appear greater in DCM than in other diseases investigated. However, no simple relationship was identified between individual patient or carer factors and carer quality of life.

“Um vivo demônio capaz de sugerir as maiores desordens”: mulheres bem e mal procedidas em pecados no sul da capitania da Bahia
Authors: Da Silva Santos Cristiane Batista
Published: July 2019

Pagando por suas alforrias, batizando seus filhos, enterrando seus mortos. Além do trabalhado pesado ainda havia espaço para afetividade, vida sexual, desejos e vontades das mulheres que viviam no sul da capitania. E não faltavam acusações de sodomias, feitiçarias, seduções, bigamias. Este texto é fruto de um projeto de pesquisa em andamento que perscruta mulheres africanas no sul da Bahia e desdobra-se em duas partes de suas vidas no período colonial e imperial, tomando-as não só como objetos de pesquisa, mas dando-lhes a condição de serem narradas como protagonistas apoiadas em vastas e inéditas fontes. Este artigo optou por trazê-las no período colonial. Quanto ao período aludido sobressaiu-se nas fontes dois aspectos: as pecadoras denunciadas estavam relacionadas ou às práticas de feitiçaria ou à vida sexual e afetiva destoante do que preconizava as leis cristãs, sobretudo nos Cadernos do Promotor. As fontes utilizadas foram os Cadernos do Promotor, as Correspondências trocadas entre autoridades e uma memória descritiva sobre ser mulher, ser africana e ser escravizada ou forra em diferentes discursos.

Clinical advantages of using unflattened 6-MV and 10-MV photon beams generated by the medical accelerator Elekta Versa HD based on their dosimetric parameters in comparison to conventional beams
Authors: Baic Błażej , Kozłowska Beata , Kwiatkowski Robert , Dybek Marcin
Published: July 2019

Photon beams with wide energy ranges from 4 MV to 25 MV are commonly used in radiotherapy nowadays. In recent years, there has been a strong interest in a certain modification of a radiotherapeutic apparatus by the application of the so-called flattening filter-free (FFF) beam. Several advantages of FFF beams over standard flattening filter (FF) beams are noticed, and this technical solution has aroused great interest among radiotherapeutic facilities. The goal of the present study is to investigate the differences between the conventional FF and unflattened FFF 6-MV and 10-MV photon beams in some basic dosimetric parameters and their influence on the whole radiotherapeutic treatment. The data provided here include the detailed characteristics as follows: percent depth dose (PDD), beam profile, edge of a half-profile, total scatter correction factor (TSCF) and head scatter correction factor (HSCF) for FF and FFF 6-MV and 10-MV photon beams from the Elekta Versa HD accelerator in the Katowice Oncology Center in Poland.

Ruthenium(II) Complexes as Potential Apoptosis Inducers in Cancer Therapy
Authors: Zaric Radica Zivkovic , Pirkovic Marijana Stanojevic , Hamzagic Nedim
Published: July 2019

The compound cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (cisplatin) is the most widely used anticancer drug, but due to its serious side effects (including gastrointestinal symptoms, renal tubular injury, neuromuscular complications, and ototoxicity), clinical applications of cisplatin are limited. Therefore, these limitations have provided an encouragement for further research into other transition metal complexes, with an aim to overcome the disadvantages related with cisplatin therapy. In the search for effective complexes that can be targeted against tumor cells, many research groups synthesized various ruthenium(II) complexes with different ligands. Also, newly synthesized ruthenium(II) complexes showed selective anticancer activity against different types of cancer cells. Activity of ruthenium(II) complexes in some cases was even higher than that of cisplatin against the same cells. Precise mechanism of action of ruthenium(II) complexes is not fully understood. The different examples mentioned in this review showed that ruthenium(II) complexes decreased viability of cancer cells by induction of apoptosis and/or by cell cycle arrest which implies their different mechanism of action against different types of cancer cells.

Both the variety and uniqueness of organic semiconductors has contributed to the rapid development of environmental engineering applications and renewable fuel production, typified by photo-degradation of organic pollutants or water splitting. This paper presents a rare example of an aggregation-induced emission luminogen (AIEgen) as a highly efficient photo-catalyst for pollutant decomposition in an environmentally relevant application. Under irradiation, the tetraphenylethene-based AIEgen (TPE-Ca) exhibited high photo-degradation efficiency of up to 98.7% of Rhodaminein (RhB) in aqueous solution. The possible photocatalytic mechanism was studied by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) spectra, electrochemistry, thermal imaging technology, ultra-performance liquid chromatography and high-definition mass spectrometry (UPLC/HDMS), as well as by density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Cytotoxicity experiments indicated that the final photo-catalytic degradation products show biocompatibility. Among the many diverse AIEgens, this is the first AIEgen to be developed as a photo-catalyster of organic pollutants. This research will open up new avenues for AIEgens research, particularly for applications of environmental relevance.

Published: July 2019

Em 2017 houve, na conjuntura política da Coreia do Sul, o impeachment da presidente Park Geun-hye. Esse contexto serviu de tema para as produções elegidas aqui como objeto de análise: enunciados escritos por alunos sul-coreanos aprendentes de língua portuguesa. A metodologia utilizada fundamenta-se na perspectiva sócio-histórica. Tomando como referência a teoria do dialogismo de Mikhail Bakhtin, o foco desta investigação é o enunciado concreto, em sua dimensão extraverbal, no intuito de compreender as valorações positivas acerca desse tema presentes nos textos. A análise das produções demonstra que os sujeitos integrantes desta pesquisa apresentam uma opinião favorável ao impeachment e que seus enunciados são construídos no estabelecimento de relações dialógicas com as vozes presentes nas esferas da sociedade coreana.
A apresentação de si em narrativas autobiográficas de adultos com baixas qualificações escolares
Authors: Calha António
Published: July 2019

Neste artigo analisamos o discurso autobiográfico de adultos pouco escolarizados, centrando-nos na forma como se apresentam e justificam o seu modo de ser. O nosso objetivo é identificar os recursos reflexivos que dão conteúdo à autoidentidade e a forma como esta varia social e culturalmente em função da variação das estórias que compõem a história pessoal. Face ao nosso objetivo, recorremos a um conjunto de cem documentos autobiográficos elaborados em processos de Reconhecimento, Validação e Certificação de Competências entre 2006 e 2012. Na análise realizada foram identificados dois modos distintos, ainda que complementares, de apresentação de si. Um primeiro modo corresponde à descrição da forma como o sujeito se tornou ele próprio, realçando as experiências de infância que moldaram o caráter individual. O segundo modo narrativo corresponde à descrição de aprendizagens que decorrem dos diferentes papéis sociais assumidos, destacando-se a forma como as diferenças de género se repercutem na argumentação.

Published: July 2019

O pensamento sobre a pessoa humana pode converter-se numa farsa, numa mentira que pretende ser verdadeira, quando reduz a dificuldade do desenvolvimento da pessoa como uma eleição de si mesma a definições ou categorias fáceis de manipular logicamente. Por isso, esse trabalho se propõe que para valorizar a pessoa humana em sua dignidade, se deve pensá-la como um ensaio – na elaborada noção de Montaigne – por assim dizer, levando em conta a dificuldade de ser si mesmo como uma relação de espírito encarnado e a dialética da eleição de si mesmo como espírito que define o desenvolvimento pleno da pessoa humana. Onde o pensador deve situar-se como a pessoa mesma que pensa na situação de eleger a possibilidade da revelação de si mesmo na ação. A eleição de si mesmo é escolher-se na situação própria humana na qual devemos reconhecer por um lado o que já nos determina e por outro o vínculo que ele pode ter com um horizonte indeterminado de possibilidades, tanto da própria pessoa como do mundo com o qual ela se relaciona, assim, escolher-se a si mesmo é receber-se na possibilidade da revelação. Para isso, trataremos primeiro da ideia de ser pessoa em Emmanuel Mounier e em segundo da dialética da eleição de si mesmo como proposta por Kierkegaard.

Türkiye’de fındık üretim alanlarının daraltılması politikası
Authors: KILIÇ TOPUZ Bakiye , KILIÇ Osman , BOZ İsmet , AYDIN ERYILMAZ Gamze
Published: July 2019

Türkiye’de
fındık; milli gelir, istihdam ve ihracattaki öneminden dolayı stratejik bir
konuma sahiptir. Türkiye’nin dünya fındık üretimindeki payı 2017’de 675 bin ton
ile %67.1 olup, bunu %13.1 ile İtalya, %4.3 ile Azerbaycan ve %2.9 ile ABD
takip etmektedir. Fındık alanlarının plansız bir şekilde artması, özellikle
1980’den sonra arz fazlası sorununu ortaya çıkarmıştır. Arz fazlasının her yıl
devam eden bir sorun haline gelmesi nedeniyle, 1983’de çıkarılan 2844 sayılı
kanunla fındık alanlarının kontrol altına alınması amaçlanmıştır. Bu makalede,
Türkiye’de fındık üretiminin önemi ve kanun sonrası illere göre fındık
sökümünün yapıldığı alanlar ile fındık yerine tercih edilen ürünler ortaya
konulmuştur. Fındık alanlarının kontrol altına alınmasını amaçlayan kanun,
fındık alanlarının daraltılmasında etkili olamadığı gibi, yeni fındık
bahçelerinin kurulmasına da engel olamamıştır. Aksine, sökümün uygulandığı il
ve ilçelerde fındık dikim alanları artmaya devam etmiştir. Fındık sökümünün
gerçekleştirildiği 2002’den günümüze kadar söküm için hedeflenen üretici
sayısının %1.1’ine, hedeflenen alanın ise %0.6’sına ulaşılabilmiştir. Söküm
yapılan iller arasında %83.4 (9.2 bin da) ile en fazla söküm yapılan alan
Samsun’da gerçekleşmiştir. Bunu %11.3 ile Sakarya ve %3.3 ile Düzce takip
etmektedir. Fındık sökümünün yapıldığı alanlarda, fındık yerine en fazla tercih
edilen alternatif ürünler mısır, kivi ve ceviz olmuştur.
About One Understudied Monument of Russian Translated Historical and Geographical Literature
Authors: Shchokin A. S.
Published: July 2019

This article investigates an understudied monument of Russian historical and geographical literature of the end of the 17th – beginning of the 18th century, i.e. the description of Algeria and Tunisia translated from Latin. The article gives a brief description of the monument as a whole and analyses in detail one of the lexical-semantic groups – the names of various plants and their fruit (phytonyms). The author notes that, along with widespread phytonyms in Russian (grain, bread, apple, etc.), the text under study uses rare (dactyl ’date’) and even sporadic words not recorded in any other sources on the history of the Russian language (kalpiyaziz ’earth almond’).

As políticas de fronteiras da União Europeia: Espaço Schengen e a Frontex
Authors: Ludwig Fernando Jose
Published: July 2019

Não resta dúvidas que as fronteiras são primordiais para o entendimento das relações internacionais e, sobretudo no que tange os processos de integração regional, tais com a União Europeia (UE), Mercado Comum do Sul (Mercosul), União Africana (UA), por exemplo. Mesmo encontrando um certo consenso em tal afirmação, o mesmo não vale para emancipação dos estudos fronteiriços em direção ao centro das Relações Internacionais. Desta feita, a UE é, sob os mais variados aspectos, uma rica fonte de concepções sobre fronteiras. Assim, o presente artigo busca inquirir sobre a dualidade de entendimento das fronteiras internas e externas à partir da percepção europeia. Nomeadamente, assimilar de que forma estas percepções, de certa forma, antagônicas permeiam o processo de integração regional europeu. Para este fim, a inferência ontológica proposta circunda a continuidade ou não do entendimento interno das fronteiras europeias em direção ao seu domínio externo. Argumenta-se que há um ruptura no entendimento crítico (envolvendo a Teoria Crítica) das fronteiras no espaço interno da UE, em contraposição ao entendimento externo, receptivo  a erudição tradicional das fronteiras, ou seja, expressa e tacitamente enquanto parte limítrofe de um Estado (ou, neste caso, de uma organização regional). Ainda, para sustentar tal construção, o presente artigo toma como estudos de caso, internamente o Espaço Schengen e, externamente a Frontex.
A difícil construção de um sistema de governança para o Aquífero Guarani
Authors: Mariano Karina Lilia Pasquariello , Telarolli Leite Maria Luisa
Published: July 2019

Este trabalho discute a construção de um sistema de governança para o Aquífero Guarani, uma das maiores reservas de água subterrânea do mundo, compartilhado por Argentina, Brasil, Paraguai e Uruguai. Embora a questão das águas subterrâneas seja estratégica no atual cenário internacional, nem sempre essa importância se traduz numa institucionalização adequada para o tratamento dessas águas, o que verificamos no caso do Acordo para o Aquífero Guarani assinado em agosto de 2010. Considerando que o Acordo do Aquífero Guarani possui em seu âmbito a base para que se pense na construção de um sistema de governança entre os países partes do Acordo, a hipótese deste trabalho é de que as preocupações com a salvaguarda da soberania e dos interesses nacionais dos países detentores da reserva desestimula os governos a uma maior preocupação com a institucionalização desse Acordo. Para tal, analisamos comparativamente o processo de ratificação na Argentina e Uruguai desse Acordo, e os debates suscitados nos congressos brasileiro e paraguaio.

سياسة الولايات المتحدة الامريكية تجاه بورما 1948-1961
Authors: عليوي الحجامي احمد حاشوش
Published: July 2019

يعد موضوع "سياسة الولايات الامريكية تجاه بورما 1948-1961" ذات اهمية كبيرة، ولا يخفى على أحد أن دراسة السياسة الامريكية تجاه دول منطقة جنوب شرق أسيا بشكل عام وبورما بشكل خاص من المواضيع المهمة التي تستحق الاهتمام من لدن الباحثين لأنها من الدراسات النادرة التي تجمع بين التوجهات الامريكية والتطورات في بورما.     

    وقد سارت السياسة الامريكية في خطى أوسع للتقارب مع بورما لاسيما بعد تأسيس جمهورية الصين الشعبية عام 1949 تدفعها نحو ذلك مصالح سياسية واقتصادية واجتماعية، بغية جرها الى جانبها وضمها الى المعسكر الغربي، إلا أن بورما تمسكت بسياسة الحياد وعدم انخراطها في التكتلات الدولية طوال مدة البحث، وعلى الرغم من المصالح المتقاربة بين البلدين إلا أن الوضع لن يستمر طويلاً، إذ اثرت ازمة الكومنتانج بشكل واضح على العلاقة بين الطرفين ودفع حكومة رانغون الى الغاء برنامج المساعدات الامريكية والتوجه نحو المعسكر الشرقي، الامر الذي اثار مخاوف الولايات المتحدة ووضع حد ونهاية لقوات الكومنتانج في بورما عام 1961.

Simulating Hidden Dynamics. Introducing Agent-Based Models as a tool for linkage analysis
Authors: Wettstein Martin
Published: July 2019

Linkage analyses use data from panel surveys and content analyses to assess media effects under field conditions and are able to close the gap between experimental and survey-based media effects research. Results from current studies and simulations indicate, however, that these studies systematically under-estimate real media effects as they aggregate measurement errors and reduce the complexity of media content. In response to these issues, we propose a new method for linkage analysis which applies agent-based simulations to directly assess short-term media effects using empirical data as guideposts.Results from an example study modeling opinion dynamics in the run-up of a Swiss referendum show that this method outperforms traditional regression-based linkage analyses in detail and explanatory power. In spite of the time-consuming modeling and computation process, this approach is a promising tool to study individual media effects under field conditions.
