Synoptic conditions and atmospheric moisture pathways associated with virga and precipitation over coastal Adélie Land in Antarctica
Authors: Jullien Nicolas , Vignon Étienne , Sprenger Michael , Aemisegger Franziska , Berne Alexis
Published: May 2020

Abstract. Precipitation falling over the coastal regions of Antarctica often experiences low-level sublimation within the dry katabatic layer. The amount of water that reaches the ground surface is thereby considerably reduced. This paper investigates the synoptic conditions and the atmospheric transport pathways of moisture that lead to either virga – when precipitation is completely sublimated – or actual surface precipitation events over coastal Adélie Land, East Antarctica. For this purpose, the study combines ground-based lidar and radar measurements at Dumont d'Urville station (DDU), Lagrangian back trajectories, Eulerian diagnostics of extratropical cyclones and fronts, and moisture source estimations. It is found that precipitating systems at DDU are associated with warm fronts of cyclones that are located to the west of Adélie Land. Virga – corresponding to 36 % of the hours with precipitation above DDU – and surface precipitation cases are associated with the same precipitating system but they correspond to different phases of the event. Virga cases more often precede surface precipitation. They sometimes follow surface precipitation in the warm sector of the cyclone's frontal system, when the associated cyclone has moved to the east of Adélie Land and the precipitation intensity has weakened. On their way to DDU, the air parcels that ultimately precipitate above the station experience a large-scale lifting across the warm front. The lifting generally occurs earlier in time and farther from the station for virga than for precipitation. It is further shown that the water contained in the snow falling above DDU during pre-precipitation virga has an oceanic origin farther away (about 30∘ more to the west) from Adélie Land than the one contained in the snow that precipitates down to the ground surface.
Apparent Comparative Advantage and Development Space in Women’s Apparel Trade
Authors: Zhao Xin
Published: May 2020

This study investigates the apparent comparative advantage of the world’s top five women’s apparel exporters in order to anticipate the development of future international women’s apparel markets using Vollrath’s Relative Trade Advantage (RTA) Index and market share analysis for both aggregate and disaggregate trade data from the UN Statistics Database for the years 1993-2007. Findings show the complexity of the comparative advantage concept and indicate that appearances can be deceiving. Outstanding performance for exporters based on RTA values at the aggregate level does not necessarily mean outstanding performance at the subcategory level. Furthermore, market share analysis shows that new players are making a strong showing in the women’s apparel trade. Niche opportunities are revealed for the current export leaders, as well as up-and-coming apparel exporters. The results suggest that Vollrath’s RTA Index, heretofore little used in the apparel trade area, offers a useful additional perspective on comparative advantage and should be considered for use in future apparel trade studies.
Gamificação e ensino do léxico na aprendizagem da língua portuguesa
Authors: Liska Geraldo José Rodrigues
Published: May 2020

Seguindo os pressupostos de Gee (2003, 2004, 2005 e 2014), defendemos que os jogos digitais podem se tornar um poderoso recurso de ensino de uma língua e, neste trabalho, trataremos do português como língua materna e do ensino de palavras e sentidos. Primeiramente, tratamos de como é o ensino do léxico na sala de aula de educação básica, aqui englobando palavras e sentidos. Em seguida, tratamos da utilização dos jogos digitais como ferramentas de ensino. Selecionamos alguns jogos e expusemos seus aspectos técnicos e mecanismos, como layout, interatividade, diversão e jogabilidade. Realizamos uma relação entre esses aspectos aos elementos que os caracterizam como ferramenta educativa. Com a finalidade de nos aprofundar sobre o assunto, procuramos e testamos jogos digitais gratuitos que se propõem a ensinar palavras e sentidos e os analisamos, relacionando fatores que contribuem para o aprofundamento de uma dimensão mais importante do estudo do léxico e da relação entre a língua e a existência do falante ao contrário de aspectos formais secundários de ordem meramente sistêmica. De todos os games analisados, “Scribblenauts” permite ao jogador utilizar a língua para se expressar e partilhar informações, experiências, ideias e sentimentos em diferentes contextos e produzir sentidos que levem à resolução dos desafios propostos e aprimorar os conhecimentos grafofônicos, ortográficos, lexicais, morfológicos e semânticos que operam nas análises linguísticas e semióticas necessárias à compreensão e à produção de linguagens, lembrando que essa habilidade precisa ser concomitantemente construída a partir do 1º ano do Ensino Fundamental.
Ergology and socio-ideological view of communication: toward a base to rethink the organization’s constitution
Authors: Feiten Haubrich Gislene , Freitas Ernani Cesar de
Published: May 2020

A mundialização e o desenvolvimento tecnológico são vetores que impulsionam mudanças nos modos de interação entre indivíduos, logo implicam na percepção e no engajamento à construção da realidade que os cerca. O contexto organizacional não é isento desses processos e passa a ser evidente diante de diferentes iniciativas dos trabalhadores, como a criação de ambientes laborais compartilhados, colaborativos e não-hierárquicos. Esses apontamentos convergem à problematização: como as organizações passam a ser constituídas sob o enfoque comunicacional? O argumento que orienta busca de resposta à esse questionamento perpassa a imbricação entre as perspectivas ergológica e do Círculo de Bakhtin e encontra no coworking sua base para reflexão. O artigo se constitui de quatro blocos, a começar pela inter-relação entre as concepções de atividade laboral e de interação verbal, como suporte para o entendimento do processo comunicacional constitutivo das organizações. Por fim, vislumbra-se o coworking como horizonte para tal proposição investigativa.
Repensando a relação entre quadro cênico e cenografia: contribuição para o debate sobre racismo na publicidade
Authors: Deusdará Bruno , Rocha Décio , Arantes Poliana Coeli Costa
Published: May 2020

Considerando a intensificação da expressão da intolerância social na contemporaneidade, propomos, com base em dispositivos do método da cartografia, mapear a produção de imagens discursivas do outro, explicitando a pretensa neutralização ou desqualificação da diversidade. Para tanto, recuperamos a reflexão de Rancière, segundo o qual o ódio à democracia se sustentaria na intolerância à pretensa “inflação” de direitos individuais. Como quadro teórico, partimos de uma concepção polifônica da linguagem e da abordagem do discurso como prática de intervenção sobre o real para interrogar os modos de constituição do sentido para além do plano do dito. Como corpus, recorremos ao texto de uma campanha publicitária de refrigerante cujos pressupostos permitem identificar o silenciamento do debate em torno do racismo, explicitando os embates como remetendo às dimensões geracional, estética e de preferências pessoais. A pesquisa permitiu articular produtivamente os estudos do discurso e as reflexões contemporâneas acerca do racismo.
Langage et Travail: une dynamique de « double anticipation » pour la formation professionnelle

Objetivo: Identificar a frequência de adolescentes que exercem atividade laboral e a associação com o uso de drogas, a saúde mental e os problemas enfrentados na vida. Método: Estudo descritivo-analítico, transversal e quantitativo, realizado com 539 adolescentes cadastrados na Estratégia Saúde da Família de um município do Sul de Minas Gerais. Para a coleta, foram utilizados questionário de caracterização, o Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire e o Drug Use Screening Inventory. Os dados foram analisados em programa estatístico para a realização das associações entre as variáveis, com aplicação dos testes Qui-quadrado, Exato de Fisher, odds ratio e Mann-Whitney. Resultados: Constatou-se que 17,8% dos adolescentes exercem atividade laboral. Não foi observada associação significante entre a variável “atividade laboral” e o consumo de drogas, a alteração na saúde mental e a densidade global, absoluta e relativa corrigida dos problemas enfrentados na vida. Conclusão: Os adolescentes trabalhadores tiveram maior consumo de álcool, maior porcentagem de serem classificados como normal para a saúde mental e médias menores para os problemas de comportamento, de saúde e desordens psiquiátricas. Faz-se necessário que mais pesquisas sejam realizadas com vista a desvelar os riscos e benefícios da atividade laboral na vida do adolescente.

The Leading Role of Chinese Discourse in Global Context: The Variation Theory of Comparative Literature
Authors: Wang Miaomiao
Published: May 2020

Chinese scholar Cao Shunqing devoted himself to the construction of Chinese Comparative Literature discourse system and successfully established a new discourse of the variation theory of comparative literature in the eponymous book. This is the latest practice of President of the People’s Republic of China Xi Jinping’s advocation to construct Chinese discourse theories. The variation theory of comparative literature is a significant concept that has been accepted and applied by the international society, in which its effects have conducted major contributions to the development of discourse system and literature theory with Chinese characteristics. And it has positively pushed the construction of Chinese soft power in the global context. As a new concept, a new field, and a new statement, the emergence of the variation theory of comparative literature has led to heated discussions and researches at the international academic level and received great feedbacks from various scholars, both national and international.
How is Chinese English Learners’ L2 Metaphoric Competence Related to That of L1? An E-Prime-Based Multi-Dimensional Study
Authors: Wang Juanjuan , Sun Yi
Published: May 2020

Even though transfer from L1 to L2 has been repeatedly tested and confirmed, there is little literature and consensus on how and to what extent the L1 metaphoric competence could be related to that of L2. Based on the metaphor acceptability and response time of E-Prime experiments and two written tests of comprehension and production of metaphors on 94 intermediate Chinese-speaking university students of English, this study compares Chinese English learners’ similarities and differences in four dimensions (metaphor acceptability, identification speed, metaphor comprehension, and metaphor production) of metaphoric competence between L1 and L2 (here is Chinese and English). The results demonstrate that: Chinese English learners’ L1 metaphoric competence is significantly better than that of L2; their L2 metaphoric competence is significantly correlated to that of L1, and the regression analysis shows that L1 metaphoric competence has a significant prediction of that of L2. These findings enlighten us to greatly cultivate metaphoric competence in foreign language teaching and help students create connection between L1 and L2 metaphoric competence. This study also provides statistical support for the claim that metaphoric competence is a general trans-language cognitive ability for Chinese English learners.

Safeguarding the Dynamic Legal Position of Children: A Matter of Age Limits?

In this article a critical reflection upon age limits applied in the law is provided, in light of the tension that exists in international children’s rights law between the protection of children and the recognition of their evolving autonomy. The main research question that will be addressed is to what extent the use of (certain) age limits is justified under international children’s rights law. The complexity of applying open norms and theoretically underdeveloped concepts as laid down in the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, related to the development and evolving capacities of children as rights holders, will be demonstrated. The UN Committee on the Rights of the Child struggles to provide comprehensive guidance to states regarding the manner in which the dynamic legal position of children should be applied in practice. The inconsistent application of age limits that govern the involvement of children in judicial procedures provides states leeway in granting children autonomy, potentially leading to the establishment of age limits based on inappropriate – practically, politically or ideologically motivated – grounds.

Gewezen EU-werknemer behoudt verblijfsrecht bij werkloosheid na twee weken werken

In deze zaak geeft het Hof van Justitie voor het eerst uitleg aan artikel 7 lid 3 onder c Richtlijn 2004/38/EG. De taalkundige onduidelijkheid in deze bepaling leidde in de zaak Tarola tot de vraag of een werknemer die na twee weken te hebben gewerkt onvrijwillig werkloos wordt, de status als werknemer behoudt. Het Hof van Justitie antwoordt hier bevestigend op waarbij nog eens wordt bevestigd dat het Hof van Justitie streeft naar een interpretatie van het begrip werknemer waar zo veel mogelijk personen onder vallen.

De ACM leidraad tariefafspraken zzp’ers: de ACM vs. Europees kartelverbod?

Met de publicatie van de Leidraad tariefafspraken zzp’ers beoogt de Autoriteit Consument & Markt (ACM) duidelijkheid te scheppen over de verenigbaarheid van zulke afspraken met het mededingingsrecht. Aangezien zzp’ers in de regel worden gezien als onderneming, vallen onderlinge afspraken over prijzen in beginsel onder het kartelverbod. De ACM signaleert de zorg dat zzp’ers door concurrentie onder het bestaansminimum uitkomen. Zij heeft in de Leidraad drie volgens haar toepasselijke uitzonderingen op het kartelverbod geformuleerd. Daarnaast kondigt de ACM aan het kartelverbod niet te zullen handhaven ten aanzien van afspraken die het door het kabinet beoogde minimumloon voor zzp’ers van 16 euro per uur vastleggen. Of dit minimumloon er komt en wat het voor deze toezegging betekent als dit niet het geval is, zal moeten blijken.

Beperkingen van het verblijfsrecht van EU-burgers en hun familieleden in de lidstaten van de EU: Uit het oog, maar niet uit het hart?

Het recht van vrij verkeer en verblijf van EU-burgers en hun familieleden in de EU wordt geregeld door de Burgerschapsrichtlijn. Dit recht is echter niet absoluut en kan worden geweigerd of ingetrokken wanneer een EU-burger onvoldoende inkomsten heeft om voor zichzelf en voor zijn familie te zorgen. Familieleden die geen EU-nationaliteit bezitten, hebben een recht om te verblijven in een gastlidstaat, wanneer zij hun familielid, die EU-burger is, begeleiden of zich bij deze EU-burger voegen. In de twee zaken die in dit artikel centraal staan, worden deze twee voorwaarden voor het verblijfsrecht van EU-burgers en hun familieleden door het Hof van Justitie nader uitgelegd.

The Role of Universities in Shaping a Safe Environment
Authors: Czupryński Andrzej
Published: May 2020

The human and social security paradigm has been developed and shaped at different levels in various countries and
political regions as a result of their diverse development of civilisation. Security in all spheres of social life has become a paradigm
of the present and the future and, following its creation, has caused mental changes in the human value system. The system of values
developed at universities, in terms of peaceful coexistence, tolerance, respect for the canons of law, and environmental protection,
is becoming an interpretation of the quality of human life. This means that universities, regardless of their educational and scientific
research profiles, are actively involved in building security in their micro- and macro-environment in the short and long term. The
social responsibility of universities to shape a safe environment consists in including the following in the content of education and
in the system of values of graduates: human rights, assumptions of humanitarianism, ethics, tolerance, environmental protection,
respect for the law, shaping pro-social attitudes, and many others arising from the challenges of the present and future.

Contribution of the Police Academy in Szczytno to Counter-terrorist Activities
Authors: Zubrzycki Waldemar
Published: May 2020

One of the state entities which have the task of preventing and combating terrorism is the Police, while the Police
Academy in Szczytno is their intellectual base. It is not only an organisational unit of the Police, but also a higher education
institution with legal personality. This status entitles it to teach at different levels of civilian higher education, as well as conduct
in-service training for police officers. Education in the area of terrorist threats and counteracting them is aimed, on the one hand,
at making the students aware of the scale of such threats and their accurate identification, as well as the ways of responding
to them by the state and its institutions, and, on the other hand, at learning specific reflexes that will allow anyone who finds
themselves in an area threatened by a terrorist attack to quickly assess the resulting threat and to react immediately. The goals set
in this way are reflected in the employment structure of the academy, which includes specialist organisational units, and among
the scientific and teaching staff are experts, including practitioners, who in the past carried out the tasks of the state at different
levels of the system for counteracting terrorist threats. They systematically participate in scientific undertakings, including research
projects, scientific conferences and publication work, participate in the work of expert teams, both national and international,
and cooperate extensively with external entities. The result of their multidimensional activities is shaping and deepening social
awareness of terrorist threats and desired attitudes towards them, as well as appropriate preparation of police officers, but also
other services, to safely perform tasks related to the elimination of terrorist threats.
The Genesis and Development
of the Police Academy in Szczytno from the Perspective of the Thirtieth
Anniversary of its Functioning
Authors: Babiński Aleksander Cezary
Published: May 2020

2020 is another special year in the history of the Police College in Szczytno. The fourth decade of its existence begins in this
year. At the same time, it is a good time to take a retrospective look at the past 30 years of functioning of this university. This is all
the more valuable because its author has actively participated in its life for almost all of these years, as a listener and then as an
employee (policeman) at the executive and management levels. The perspective of thirty years of functioning of the Police College
presented in the article concerns primarily its evolution, which is a consequence of the expectations of the police management and
the interior ministry. At the same time, it presents its development as an academic centre, providing education at an increasingly
higher level. The real dimension of this direction of development is the University’s ability to award further, increasingly higher titles
and degrees. This is the result of the involvement of the academic and teaching staff of the university, but also of its management.
This article shows the path taken by the Police College in Szczytno from the university, being the resultant of the socio-political
changes of the late 1980s and early 1990s of the last century, to the university being the leading academic centre in the Republic
of Poland which educates in the field of social sciences and conducts research showing the relationships between the disciplines
included in this one field of science. It not only allows the professional staff of the department’s services to be trained, but also
to discover new opportunities for providing safety.

Großprojekte bergen für den Generalunternehmer im Hinblick auf die Einhaltung des vereinbarten Termin- und Kostenrahmens erhebliche Organisationsrisiken. Das Organisationsproblem des Generalunternehmers wird durch die besondere rechtliche Beziehung seiner Subunternehmer in Form einer Sonderverbindung und der daraus folgenden Direkthaftung zusätzlich verschärft. Durch die richtige Koordinierung des Generalunternehmers kann das Organisationsproblem gelöst werden. Für diese Koordinierung fehlt es jedoch an ausschließlichen gesetzlichen Regelungen. Geeignete Möglichkeiten, die Koordinierung durch den Generalunternehmer zu regeln, bietet aber das Vertragsrecht. Bei einer Lösungsfindung spielen neben dem klassischen Vertragsrecht auch Partnering-, Alliancing- und Netzwerkmodelle eine zentrale Rolle.

Ein Unternehmen ist kein starres Gebilde. Die wirtschaftliche oder betriebliche Situation kann es vielmehr für Rechtsträger mit marktwirtschaftlicher Entfaltung erforderlich machen, eine Umstrukturierung in Form der Verschmelzung nach dem Umwandlungsgesetz vorzunehmen. Dabei geht im Wege der umwandlungsrechtlichen Universalsukzession das Vermögen des übertragenden Rechtsträgers umfassend auf den übernehmenden Rechtsträger über. Die Verfasserin beschäftigt sich mit den Auswirkungen dieses Rechtsübergangs für die Vertragspartner des übertragenden Unternehmens. Dabei wird umfassend untersucht, ob die aktuelle Gesetzeslage den schutzwürdigen Belangen Dritter gerecht wird und welche Maßnahmen diese zu ihrem Schutz ergreifen können. Beleuchtet wird insbesondere das Verhältnis zwischen der Umwandlungsfreiheit verschmelzungsfähiger Rechtsträger und der negativen Vertragsfreiheit der Vertragspartner derselben unter besonderer Berücksichtigung des sukzessionsrechtlichen Schuldnerschutzes.

Platone, Ippia Minore
Authors: Venturelli Silvia
Published: May 2020

In spite of its brevity and its aporetical ending, Plato’s Hippias minor is worth considering, for it deals with relevant questions such as falsehood, its relationship to wrongdoing and the more complex problem of voluntary and involuntary action. Moreover, the central section of the dialogue is devoted to the exegesis of the Homeric poems and in particular of the Iliad, developing a comparison between Achilles and Odysseus and thus offering important evidence of Plato’s early interest in poetic production. The aim of the present work is to give a new critical edition of the Greek text with Italian translation, preceded by a general introduction and followed by a continuous lemmatic commentary in order to provide a systematic analysis of the dialogue in every aspect.
Una mirada a una ciudad sin planificación: patrones en la forma de los barrios informales en la ciudad de Manta, Ecuador
Authors: Pico Alonso Karen
Published: May 2020

En Ecuador distinguimos cuatro periodos en los que se desencadenan procesos migratorios importantes. En éstos adquieren protagonismo formas de ocupación heterodoxas, respondiendo a la urgente necesidad de vivienda y desencadenando un proceso de expansión urbana incontrolada en distintas ciudades del país. En Manta esta expansión se da principalmente en el lado suroriente con la aparición de “invasiones”, que fueron fomentadas por el clientelismo mediante la autoconstrucción y el fraccionamiento del suelo al margen de la legislación. Ante un desarrollo urbano donde predominaron las iniciativas individuales, que acabaron pautando el crecimiento y la orientación del trazado urbano, cabría una mirada pertinente para hallar un orden y unos patrones en la composición del plano irregular, y comprender las “reglas” de este fenómeno.

In Ecuador we identify four periods in which important migratory processes are triggered. In these, forms of heterodox occupation take center stage, responding to the urgent need for housing and unleashing a process of uncontrolled urban expansion in different cities of the country. In Manta, we observe this expansion mainly on the southeastern side, composed of several "invasions" promoted by political clientelism through self-construction and fractioning of the land outside the legislation. In the face of such growth, dominated byindividual initiatives that ended up regulating the development and orientation of the urban layout, a more adequate look should be taken to find order and patterns within this irregular plane, and to understand the "rules" of this phenomenon.
Más allá del Agua: desarrollo urbano de la Comarca Lagunera México después de la regulación del río Nazas
Authors: Barrios Avalos Juan José
Published: May 2020

Las tres ciudades principales en la Comarca Lagunera; Torreón, Gómez Palacio, y Lerdo, se emplazan sobreel curso bajo del río Nazas en el semi-desierto del noroeste mexicano. Entre 1946 y 1968 se construyen, una serie de presas y canales para regular el caudal del río. Este sistema de regulación permitió administrar el aguapara riego agrícola, reducir las inundaciones en zonas anegables en la ribera y proporcionar agua potable a las ciudades de la Comarca. Sin embargo, también propició la desaparición de la corriente de agua en el cursobajo del río en la ribera de las tres ciudades, y la desecación de la Laguna de Mayrán en la desembocadura del Nazas. En este sentido se observa que, el sistema de regulación también alteró y condicionó hasta hoy en día, las lógicas de desarrollo urbano de Torreón, Gómez Palacio y Lerdo y su relación paisajística con el territorio.

Comarca Lagunera’s three major cities are Torreon, Gomez Palacio, and Lerdo. All three cities are located in the downstream course of the Nazas River in the semi-desert of the Mexican northwest. In order to regulate the flow of the Nazas River, a series of dams and canals were built over a twenty year period between 1946and 1968. The system permitted the administration of water for agricultural irrigation, the reduction of floodingin floodplain areas on riverbanks, and access to drinking water for local populations. Unfortunately,consequences of this system included water recession in the downstream course of the riverbanks in thesethree cities, and the drying of Mayran’s Lagoon at the mouth of the Nazas. Urban growth of Torreon, GomezPalacio, and Lerdo was permanently altered, as was the cities’ landscape relationship with the territory — a direct result of the construction of this regulation system.

Authors: Catalán Hidalgo René
Published: May 2020

La presente investigación aborda las transformaciones materiales de los espacios comerciales del centro de Santiago, a partir del concepto de súper-diversidad. Hablar de súper-diversidad en una ciudad del Sur Global como Santiago, implica incluir los fenómenos de gentrificación y de migración transnacional, siendo ellos y su desarrollo en la ciudad, claves para comprender un proceso reciente como el de la súper-diversificación. Para lograr este fin, se creó el Indicador de Potencial de Gentrificación el que permitió identificar la zona específica de Santiago, que corresponde a un polígono del Barrio Lira, el cual se abordó en la segunda etapa. Posteriormente se empleó análisis visual con fotografías tomadas en el barrio e imágenes obtenidas desde Google Street View, contraste que permite analizar las transformaciones recientes de los espacios comerciales de la zona seleccionada, de una perspectiva de la súper-diversificación de la ciudad de Santiago.

This research addresses the material transformations of the commercial spaces of the center of Santiago, using the concept of super-diversity. Talking about super-diversity in a city of the Global South such as Santiago, involves including the phenomena of gentrification and transnational migration, being these concepts and their development in the city, keys to understanding a recent process such as super-diversification. To achieve this aim, the Gentrification Potential Indicator was developed, these allowed the identification of the specific area of Santiago to be addressed in the second stage, which corresponds to a polygon of the Lira Neighborhood. Subsequently, visual analysis was used with photographs taken in the neighborhood and images obtained from Google Street View, a contrast that allows the analysis of recent transformations of the commercial spaces of the selected area, from a perspective of the super-diversification of the city of Santiago.

If you or your group provides services to Medicare beneficiaries, you will likely need to comply with the program.

Objective.—

To avoid potential reductions in Medicare reimbursement, pathologists need to understand the requirements of these new payment programs.

Data Sources.—

Each year the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services publish a Final Rule detailing the program requirements and updates. 2020 marks the fourth reporting year for the Merit-based Incentive Payment System. Performance this year will impact 2022 Medicare Part B distributions by up to ±9%.

Conclusions.—

By staying up to date with the ever-evolving Merit-based Incentive Payment System requirements, pathologists will be better equipped to successfully comply with this relatively new payment system, reduce the burden of participating, understand the reporting differences of the various performance categories, and thereby be able to maximize their scoring and incentive potential.

Published: May 2020

Context.—

Quality measures are a cornerstone in measuring physicians' performance within the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services' Quality Payment Program (QPP). Clinicians' performance on quality measures and other categories within the QPP determines Medicare part B payment adjustments. Driven by evidence-based clinical practice guidelines, quality measures should focus on high-priority facets of health care, support a desired patient outcome, and address an area with evidence of a gap or variation in provider performance.

Objective.—

To meet the goals of the QPP, a broad array of quality measures must be developed that allows pathologists the flexibility to choose activities and measures most meaningful to their practice and patient population while also trying to mitigate the challenges of implementation and data collection.

Design.—

In this second manuscript of the series, we present the development of additional College of American Pathologists–developed quality payment measures for use in the QPP. We also discuss the relationship of quality measure reporting with reimbursement and the challenges with capturing data for quality reporting.

Results.—

The College of American Pathologists identified 23 new measures for quality performance reporting that reflect rigorous clinical evidence and address areas in need of performance improvement.

Conclusions.—

Development of quality measures is a necessary and ongoing effort within the College of American Pathologists. Increased awareness about pathology-specific issues in measure development and reporting is essential to ensuring pathology's ability to demonstrate value and meaningfully participate in the QPP.

La potenciación de la competencia traductológica en alumnos universitarios: una propuesta híbrida
Authors: Montalbán Martínez Nicolás
Published: May 2020

El objetivo del presente artículo es comprobar la potenciación de la competencia traductológica por medio de un acercamiento incluyendo aprendizaje combinado, aula invertida, Aprendizaje Basado en Proyectos y gamificación. Para ello, se empleará la plataforma Sakai en una experiencia didáctica con los alumnos de las asignaturas Traducción para el Turismo y Ocio I (Inglés), Traducción para el Turismo y Ocio II (Inglés) y Traducción Especializada (Inglés), del tercer y cuarto curso del grado de Traducción e Interpretación, en el curso académico 2018/2019 en la Universidad de Murcia. Para evaluar dicha experiencia se realizó en primer lugar una evaluación inicial para comprobar el estado de partida de los alumnos participantes en la experiencia. En el transcurso de la intervención didáctica, los alumnos desarrollaron actividades fuera de clase empleando la herramienta Foro del Aula Virtual (utilizada para completar actividades y organizar un debate continuo), Tareas (para ubicar los encargos de traducción), etc., conjuntamente con actividades en clase como exposiciones, mini-debates, evaluaciones empleando Kahoots y prácticas de traducción. Al final de todo el proceso se evaluaron las competencias traductológicas, y se envió a los alumnos una encuesta final. Se concibe este estudio como un proyecto piloto para evaluar la viabilidad de los instrumentos y herramientas utilizadas, así como su diseño, previo a su implantación a mayor escala en otras asignaturas.
A concretização do direito à informação ambiental: o acesso à informação para a efetividade da cidadania socioambiental brasileira
Authors: Rodrigues Bertoldi Marcia , Gomes da Rosa Rosana
Published: May 2020

O debate acerca do direito à informação é essencial para garantir a participação na concretização da cidadania socioambiental e sua democracia participativa nos processos de decisão relacionados tanto à gestão ambiental quanto para à elaboração de políticas públicas socioambientais. O artigo visa analisar na legislação vigente os principais instrumentos de acesso à informação, como o ente estatal vem cumprindo seu dever em informar e se está efetivamente garantindo os direitos dos cidadãos em ter amplo acesso à informação, e como o acesso à informação contribui para a realização da cidadania socioambiental. Busca-se demonstrar que somente garantindo acesso às informações é possível ter a formulação de políticas públicas que integrem ambiente e sociedade, bem como que o processo de participação popular somente terá eficácia democrática se realizado com base em informações seguras acerca do que se decide. A metodologia utilizada parte de uma abordagem dedutiva, se utiliza do método auxiliar empírico e tem caráter quali-quanti em relação às informações ambientais atualmente disponíveis. A legislação brasileira tem diversos instrumentos para auxiliar o processo de gestão e administração das informações ambientais, o que classifica o direito à informação como instrumento para concretizar a cidadania socioambiental.

Published: May 2020

Introduction: Relapses in tuberculosis occur due to endogenous reactivations or exogenous reinfections and represent up to 27% of tuberculosis cases. Its importance lies in the risk of the appearance of multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains.According to the reports published in 2011 by the Colombian Instituto Nacional de Salud, there were 572 relapse cases reported in the country, i.e., a rate of 4.9%. Data of the tuberculosis control program from the Secretaría de Salud Municipal in Cali reported a relapse rate of 6%, higher than the national one, during 2013 and 2014.Objective: To determine the risk factors associated with relapse in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis in Cali.Materials and methods: We conducted an observational, analytical, and case-control study (1:1), which comprised 81 cases of pulmonary tuberculosis relapses detected in 2013 and 2014. Additionally, we collected data on socio-demographic and clinical variables, as well as lifestyle and health services, to identify the potential risk factors associated with tuberculosis relapses. We used logistic regression to identify the risk factors.Results: After adjustments for some variables, our multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the body mass index (BMI) (OR=0.90, 95%CI: 0.81–0.99) and population density (OR=0.99, 95%CI: 0.98–1.00) were inversely associated with tuberculosis relapses. Alcohol consumption increased the likelihood of tuberculosis relapse (OR=5.56, 95%CI: 1.18–26.26).Conclusions: Body mass index and population density were inversely associated with pulmonary tuberculosis relapses in Cali. On the contrary, alcohol consumption increased the likelihood of tuberculosis relapses.

Published: May 2020

Introduction: Periodontitis affects more than 20% of the Latin American population.Oxidative markers are associated with greater progression of periodontitis; therefore, its role in pathogenesis should be studied.Objective: To determine the prevalence of the main oral bacteria and viruses associated with periodontitis and estimate the total antioxidant capacity and lipid peroxidation in saliva from patients with periodontitis.Materials and methods: We conducted systemically a cross-sectional study in 101 healthy subjects, 87 of whom had been diagnosed with periodontitis (P), according to the criteria of the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention and the American Academy of Periodontology, and 14 without periodontal pockets as controls (C). In subgingival samples, major viruses and dental pathogenic bacteria were identified using PCR techniques. The levels of total antioxidant capacity and malon-di-aldehyde (MDA) were determined by spectrophotometry in samples of unstimulated saliva.Results: The mean of periodontal depth pocket and clinical attachment loss in patients with periodontitis was 5.6 ± 1.7 and 6.1 ± 3.1 mm, respectively. The most prevalent microorganisms were Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (32.5%) and Porphyromonas gingivalis (18.6%). The patients from rural areas showed a higher percentage of A. actinomycetemcomitans (urban: 17.9% vs. rural: 48.9%, p=0.0018). In patients with periodontitis, the frequency of EBV, HSV1 & 2, and HCMV genes was 2.3%. Periodontitis patients had higher levels of MDA (P: 2.1 ± 1.5; C: 0.46 ± 0.3 μmol/g protein; p=0.0001) and total antioxidant capacity (P: 0.32 ± 0.2; C: 0.15 ± 0.1 mM; p< 0.0036). Oxidative markers showed no modifications due to the presence of periodontopathic bacteria.Conclusions: Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans was the most prevalent bacteria; its presence did not modify the levels of oxidative markers in the saliva of patients with periodontitis.
