Published: October 2021

OBJECTIVE

To investigate the nature of the relationship between HbA1c and sepsis among individuals with type 2 diabetes, and to assess the association between sepsis and all-cause mortality in such patients.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

We included 502,871 individuals with type 2 diabetes recorded in the Swedish National Diabetes Register and used multivariable Cox regression and restricted cubic spline analyses to assess the association between time-updated HbA1c values and sepsis occurrence between 1 January 2005 and 31 December 2015. The association between sepsis and death was examined using multivariable Cox regression analysis.

RESULTS

Overall, 14,534 (2.9%) patients developed sepsis during the study period. On multivariable Cox regression analysis, compared with an HbA1c of 48–52 mmol/mol (6.5–6.9%), the adjusted hazard ratio for sepsis was 1.15 (95% CI 1.07–1.24) for HbA1c <43 mmol/mol (6.1%), 0.93 (0.87–0.99) for HbA1c 53–62 mmol/mol (7.0–7.8%), 1.05 (0.97–1.13) for HbA1c 63–72 mmol/mol (7.9–8.7%), 1.14 (1.04–1.25) for HbA1c 73–82 mmol/mol (8.8–9.7%), and 1.52 (1.37–1.68) for HbA1c >82 mmol/mol (9.7%). In the cubic spline model, a reduction of the adjusted risk was observed within the lower HbA1c range until 53 mmol/mol (7.0%), with a hazard ratio of 0.78 (0.73–0.82) per SD; it increased thereafter (P for nonlinearity <0.001). As compared with patients without sepsis, the adjusted hazard ratio for death among patients with sepsis was 4.16 (4.03–4.30).

CONCLUSIONS

In a nationwide cohort of individuals with type 2 diabetes, we found a U-shaped association between HbA1c and sepsis and a fourfold increased risk of death among those developing sepsis.

OBJECTIVE

For people with type 1 diabetes, there are limited evidence-based resources to support self-management when traveling across multiple time zones. Here, we compared glycemic control on insulin degludec versus glargine U100 as the basal insulin for adults using multiple daily injections (MDI) while traveling across multiple time zones.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

This randomized crossover pilot study compared insulin degludec versus glargine U100 for adults with type 1 diabetes using MDI insulin during long-haul travel to and from Hawaii to New York. Insulin degludec was administered daily at the same time regardless of time zone, and glargine was administered per travel algorithm. Primary end point was the percentage of time in range (TIR) between 70 and 140 mg/dL during the initial 24 h after each direction of travel. Secondary end points included standard continuous glucose monitoring metrics, jet lag, fatigue, and sleep.

RESULTS

The study enrolled 25 participants (56% women, mean ± SD age of 35 ± 14.5 years, HbA1c of 7.4 ± 1.2% [57 ± 13.1 mmol/mol], and diabetes duration of 20.6 ± 15 years). There was no significant difference in glycemic outcomes between the two arms of the study, including TIR, hypoglycemia, or hyperglycemia. Neither group achieved >70% TIR 70–180 mg/dL during travel. Jet lag was greater on glargine U100 in eastward travel but not westward. Fatigue was greater after westward travel on glargine. Sleep was not significantly different between basal insulins.

CONCLUSIONS

In adults with type 1 diabetes using MDI of insulin and traveling across multiple time zones, glycemic outcomes were similar comparing insulin degludec and glargine U100.
En stille revolusjon av utviklingssamarbeidet?
Authors: Hegertun Nikolai
Published: October 2021

Stadig mer av utviklingsdiskusjonen dreier seg om grenseoverskridende problemstillinger og globale fellesgoder som klima, hav, natur og pandemiberedskap. Essayet presenterer tall som viser at Norge er det OECD-landet som vier mest av sin utviklingsbistand til globale fellesgoder. Selv om det er sterke synergier mellom bistand og globale fellesgoder har de grunnleggende sett ulike formål og målgrupper. Det er likevel grunn til å tro at tendensen med å bruke utviklingsmidler på globale fellesgoder vil styrke seg i årene som kommer – gitt de utfordringer verden møter i form av klimaendringer og smittsomme sykdommer. Essayet drøfter således hvordan bistandsfeltet er i ferd med å gjennomgå en gradvis, men fundamental endring – en «stille revolusjon». Dette kan skje ettersom bistanden er et politikkfelt som kjennetegnes av liten offentlig interesse og debatt. Det er imidlertid presserende drøfte implikasjonene av de globale fellesgodenes utvidelse og komplementering av bistanden. Ett forslag kan være å tydeligere rydde i utviklingssamarbeidets ulike engasjement, der bistand til fattigdomsreduksjon (uten hensyn til globale problemstillinger), og investeringer i globale fellesgoder (uten særlig hensyn til fattigdomsreduksjon) danner ytterpunktene. Dette kan hjelpe på dagens situasjon der bistanden presses tematisk og geografisk, og på den annen side arbeidet med de globale fellesgodene vris dit behovene er størst, ikke nødvendigvis dit produksjonen av dem skjer mest effektivt.
Abstract in EnglishAid’s Silent Revolution?After decades of progress on a number of development parameters such as poverty reduction, hunger, and child and maternal health, we now see an emerging pessimism related to the international society’s ability to solve global challenges. Indeed, the world seems increasingly embroiled by crises of a global nature, whether it’s the ongoing economic and health crisis caused by Covid-19 or the weather extremes caused by climate change. Although not explicitly recognized, these developments are fundamentally changing international development cooperation. Foreign aid is increasingly directed towards global public goods such as climate, pandemics, the oceans and biodiversity. Norway is leading the pack with more than 20 percent of its earmarked aid addressing global public goods. Resources for poverty alleviation among the world’s poorest nations has come under increasing pressure from these global public goods and confronts us with fundamental questions about what foreign aid has become, and what it should be.

The analysis and comparison to the translation of American slangs in Yang Renjing’s translation of Billy Bathgate through the notions of translation memetics can deeply indicate the cultural nature behind American slangs, and further promote the exchange and communication of Chinese and foreign cultures with the conversion results of slang translation. By integrating the strategies adopted by the translator in the translation of slang memes to analyze the motivations and rules behind the transmission of American slangs, the discussions to the modes of spreading and developing slang memes in translation can be advanced. Also, the fact of cultural mutation and transformation in translation can be proved from the perspective of memetics to demonstrate the inevitability of the variation of American slang in communication due to the limitation of cultural differences.

Published: October 2021

Studies on the Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) for Bangkok are found sparingly. The TOD concept is a supportive development for the rapidly changing city in order to reduce urban transport problems while encouraging people to shift transport modes to use public transportations instead of private cars. This study discusses the context of TOD in the density, the design, and the diversity of land use around transit stations among successful stations in many countries. There were 18 station areas in Bangkok which, by using the TOD Readiness score, the assessment of the stations implies that the higher scoring transit stations are more compatible to supporting pedestrian use of the transit station with lower car dependency. The 4 top-scoring stations were assessing by using multinomial logistic regression model. The study has found TOD scores and the frequent uses of the stations consequently encourage the commuters around the station areas decided to rely on public transport instead of car dependency. This is an effort to overcome the understanding of the station areas by reducing the complexity of the TOD contexts to any transit station in Thailand to be eligible for future study.
A Conceptual Model of Smart Port Performance and Smart Port Indicators in Thailand
Authors: Makkawan Kittisak , Muangpan Thanyaphat
Published: October 2021

Autonomous ports and digital ports are a modern trend of global commercial ports that are established to develop toward smart ports in many ports. Smart port indicators (SPIs) are used as important tools for measuring, encouraging, and indicating smart port performance. These are the main indicators to operate smart port management as the practical direction and port development planning are enclosed. This research aims to identify the SPIs and to develop a conceptual model of smart port performance in a case study of The Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC) in Thailand. Triangulation data are used in the data collection with three sources: the reviewed literature of five international databases in 2016–2021, participant observations, and in-depth interviews. Content analysis is utilized to analyze these data to develop a conceptual model approach. The findings of this research are shown in three main domains classified as smart port operation, smart port environment/energy, and smart port safety/security. These indicators represent 29 SPIs for developing smart port performance, which can be explained with a conceptual model. This information will exist as the foundation framework guiding Thai smart ports towards international standards of smart port efficiency.
A Study on the Reinforcement of Supply Chains Corresponding to Global Value Chain Reforms in the Automobile Parts and Component Industry
Authors: Shin Sung-Ho , Shin Soo-Yong
Published: October 2021

Global value changes continued to expand until the late 2000s. On the other hand, regional value chains have formed around major regional hubs due to the expansion of domestic demand in emerging economies, such as China, and strengthened trade protectionism since the global financial crisis. Such changes lead to the reorganisation of value chains, focusing on domestic markets (reshoring) or neighbouring countries (nearshoring). In particular, the importance of supply chain risk management has been highlighted following disruptions to the supply network due to the COVID-19 outbreak in December 2019. In this regard, major countries such as the USA and the EU are rapidly shifting to regional value chains for stable and sustainable production, rather than primarily aiming for production efficiency targeted at reducing costs. Industries in particular are more exposed to such supply chain risks under the existing structure and it now has become extremely important for businesses to take reaction to such risks. This is especially important for major industries in a country such as automobile or semiconductor manufacturing industries in South Korea. The aim of this study, therefore, is to establish the basis for the simultaneous growth of ports and linked industries by examining the existing structure of the global value chain for the automotive industry, which has a strong presence in South Korea’s domestic economy. In this regard, this research carries out a supply chain analysis focusing on the imports and exports of automotive parts. It also analyses the current structural risks and suggests risk management measures to secure a stable supply chain.

Published: October 2021

Craniopharyngioma is a benign and rare intracranial tumor. In children, the clinic is characterized by the semiological, neurological, ophthalmological, and endocrine tripod. Medical imaging, represented by computed tomography (CT) and especially magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), has revolutionized the approach to the diagnosis of the latter. It has a slow evolution and likely to recur late. Thus, prolonged clinical-radiological follow-up is important to affirm a cure. The aim of this study is to highlight the epidemiological, clinical, paraclinical, therapeutic and evolutionary characteristics of craniopharyngiomas in children. This work consisted of a retrospective study of 11 pediatric cases of this tumor collected in the Neurosurgery Department of the IBN ROCHD University Hospital in Casablanca between January 2011 and January 2017. In this series, the child's craniopharyngiomas accounted for a rate of 45.8% of all these tumors. The average age of our patients was 9.09 years, with a sex ratio of 0.37. The average time to diagnose was 10 months. The picture was dominated by 100% visual disturbances, signs of intracranial hypertension at 63.63% and endocrine disorders at 36.36%. The lesion was intra and suprasellar seat in 91% of cases and suprasellar seat in 9%. Tumor size was less than 4cm in 54.53% of cases. Hydrocephalus is observed in 27.27% of cases. The fronto-pterrional modus operandi was the most used 72% of cases. Total exeresis was achieved in 9.1% of cases. Overall trends were favorable in 72% of cases without noting mortality. Tumor progressive recovery was observed in 9.1% of cases, but there were no recurrences. Given its location, the treatment of craniopharyngioma can lead to significant consequences in children affecting the long-term quality of life, hence the importance of post-operative follow-up and multidisciplinary management.
Peculiar features of correlation between petrophysical signatures of rocks and distribution of geophysical heterogeneities in the Monchegorsk ore area (Kola Peninsula, northeastern Baltic Shield)
Authors: Filatova V.T.
Published: October 2021

The current article presents stratified data on physical properties of rocks and ores from the Monchegorsk ore area (Kola region). The constructed petrodensity and petromagnetic maps reflect peculiar features of changes in petrophysical parameters of both Paleoproterozoic intrusive rocks and host rocks at the Archean basement of the area. To assess the complementarity degree of physical properties of the rocks and geophysical fields, we additionally analyzed the structure of geophysical anomalies (Δg, ΔZ) in the study area. It allowed constructing a distribution scheme for geophysical heterogeneity in the area and assessing their nature.

The conducted studies showed that nickel-bearing and potentially nickel-bearing intrusions in the Monchegorsk ore area were highly dense, but composed of weakly magnetic rocks. Layering of the gabbro-labradorite massif of the Main Ridge is reflected in petrophysical parameters, i. e. endocontact gabbro and gabbronorite show an increased density and magnetic susceptibility compared to leucocratic gabbro and labradorite in the core of the intrusion. Thus, petrophysical data indicate a general increase in the basicity of the rocks towards the bottom of the intrusion.

The discrepancy between intense geophysical anomalies and physical parameters of near-surface rocks of the block adjacent to the gabbro-labradorite massif of the Main Ridge in the southeast was revealed. This fact indicates a layer of dense rocks under the supracrustal basement rocks (a complex of gneisses and amphibolized volcanic-sedimentary rocks) and rocks of the Imandra-Varzuga structure. This layer can be composed of potentially nickel-bearing rocks of the Imandra complex, including intrusions of the clinopyroxene-wehrlite formation series exposed in some areas.

According to the configuration pattern of the identified axes of local magnetic anomalies, the Archean blocks are considered isolated areas given the uniform pattern they create, i. e. Belomorian — isometric structures, Kola — linearly extended. Therefore, during transformation of the structural plan in the Paleoproterozoic, the Archean blocks gave differentiated responses to the emerging stress-strain state of the environment and were subject to heterogeneous deformations.

The performed work, including integrated results of petrophysical studies with the analysis of the structure of geophysical anomalies in the ore region, is relevant in substantiating a strategy for prospecting for new ore occurrences and patterns of their localization, as well as for developing criteria for predicting industrial ores in the region. At the same time, the studies carried out make it possible to answer questions related to the reconstruction of the geodynamic settings that took place during the formation of the region’s crust.
The structure of the sedimentary complex of the Middle and South Caspian depressions (Azerbaijan sector)
Authors: Yusubov N.P. , Guliyev I.S.
Published: October 2021

The high degree of knowledge of the upper horizons of the sedimentary cover of the Middle and South Caspian depressions, given an insufficient increase in hydrocarbon reserves, leads to the need for a detailed approach to the search for oil and gas deposits in deep-seated sediments (over 6 km). During the geological interpretation of new highly informative seismic data, as well as data of deep drilling and petrological core studies, there were revealed obvious shortcomings in the concepts of the origin and evolution of the Middle and South Caspian depressions. These ideas misinterpret evolution, especially the South Caspian Basin, which is characterized by a number of unique features: very thick sedimentary cover (up to 22 km), extremely high sedimentation rate, low heat flow and reservoir temperatures, abnormally high pore and reservoir pressures, high clay content of the section, etc. The main purpose of the study was to elucidate the regional structure and features of the dissection of the sedimentary cover of the Middle and South Caspian depressions, the conditions of occurrence and distribution of facies and thicknesses of individual complexes of deposits.

The paper analyzes the results of some previous studies of the geological structure of the Middle and South Caspian depressions based on the data of deep seismic sounding, seismological and gravimetric observations. We consider the main conclusions of these studies, about the geological structure of the sedimentary complex of the region’s, very outdated and subject to revision.

The results of seismic stratigraphic analysis of seismic data allowed the authors to identify new data about the tectonic structure and express a completely different point of view regarding the structure of the sedimentary cover in the region.

The work also touches on the issue associated with the tectonics of the region and the alleged subduction zone here.

Published: October 2021

Adolescents face various challenges and changes in order to realize their developmental tasks. The challenges are coupled with the technological disruption that requires adolescents to face new problems that have never existed before as millennials. However, the problems experienced by adolescents are often not expressed because of various obstacles, such as reluctance to tell spontaneously to the adults around them, high social conformity, so it is difficult to find help. For this reason, an alternative assessment is needed, which serves as an effort to map the problems experienced by adolescents and their mental health conditions accurately and actually. This study aims to find the value of the construct validity that forms the ZIPC to be used more widely and measure the actual problem conditions of the assessment subject. Participants involved in this study were 978 high school adolescents from all over Indonesia. The analysis used in finding the construct validity of this instrument is Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA). The impact of changes and instrument conditions after analysis will be discussed.

Hemifacial Microsomia (HFM) is a term used to identify facial deformities associated with the development ofthe first and second pairs of branchial arches, characterized by underdevelopment of one half of the face. One typeof hemifacial microsomia is oculo-auriculo-vertebral dysplasia or Goldenhar syndrome.The incidence of HFM is 1:3500-1:7000 of live births and occurs in 1 case per 1000 children with congenitaldeafness. The ratio of boys to girls is 3:2. The etiology and type of inheritance is studied insufficiently. There are threepossible pathogenetic models: vascular abnormalities and hemorrhages in the craniofacial region, damage of Meckel'scartilage, and abnormal cell development of the cranial nerve crest. Environmental factors, maternal internal factors,and genetic factors (OTX2, PLCD3, and MYT1 mutations) may also cause the development of hemifacial microsomia.The article demonstrates a clinical case of hemifacial microsomia in a newborn boy from a mother with Z-21 inthe form of deformation of the left auricle with atresia of the auditory canal and "false" ears on the right, combinedwith congenital anomaly of heart (atrial septal defect) and brain (hypoplasia of the corpus callosum).Emphasis is placed on the need of involving a multidisciplinary team of specialists in the management of thispatient both in the neonatal period and in the system of subsequent follow-up.

The determination ofthe bone mineral density levels in a mother and a newborn andthe relationship between these indicators are important issuesof the present time.Objective is to assess the condition of the bone mineraldensity in full-term newborns depending on the bone mineraldensity of their mothers of different ages. Our case studiesmothers between 13 and 43 years of age and their newborns.Materials and methods: The research design presumedthe study of 79 newborns between 48 and 72 hours of agesimultaneously with their mothers between 13 and 43 yearsof age, who were presumably healthy and have been livingin Zaporizhzhia region. The study was carried out using anultrasonic bone sonometer "Sunlight Omnisense 9000", whichquantitatively measures the ultrasound velocity (SOS, m / s)characterizing the corresponding bone mineral density.Results. The highest SOS (speed of sound) levels werefound in newborns born from mothers aged 13-17 years and18-20 years - 3156 [3024; 3232], m / s and 3215 [3127; 3316],m / s, respectively (p<0.05). At the same time, the SOS levelsof these women were the lowest -3992 [3931; 4091], m / s and4037 [3966; 4105], m / s, respectively, compared with the SOSlevels of the mothers of the older age groups (p<0.05), but didnot correlate (p> 0.05) with high SOS levels of their children.Whereas the SOS indicators 4242 [4204; 4469], m / s in agroup of women aged 31–43 years had a moderate negativecorrelation with SOS levels 3006 [2897; 3041], m / s of theirnewborn children (p<0.05).Conclusions. We found out that the SOS indicatorsin children born from mothers of different age groups aresignificantly different (p <0.05): higher rates were found innewborns born from mothers aged 13-20 years. There was nostatistically significant difference in the SOS indicators inmothers between 13-20 years of age and their newborns, incomparison with women aged 18-20 years and their newbornbabies. At the same time, it was found out that only babies bornfrom mothers of the age group 31-43 years had an increase inthe SOS levels accompanied by a significant decrease in theseindicators in their mothers

The formation of trichobezoars is a rareclinical condition that develops primarily as a result ofmental illness. Literature data indicate that trichobezoarsare most often found in children. The presence of a bezoarcan lead to serious complications such as erosion of thestomach lining, peptic ulcer disease, and even perforation ofthe stomach or small intestine. Treatment options for gastrictrichobezoars range from endoscopic removal, dissolution,and mechanical hydrojet crushing of small bezoars tosurgical removal of giant bezoars. The presented clinicalcases prove the danger caused by trichobezoar. Cases ofthe formation of a trichobezoar with a clinic of intestinalobstruction in an adolescent girl, and a trichobezoar ofthe blind end of the esophagus and a clinic of respiratoryfailure in a small child with a congenital malformation ofthe esophagus are described. This pathology can occur atany age, have an atypical clinical picture and, in case ofuntimely treatment, lead to tragic consequences. In addition,it is necessary to use a multidisciplinary approach to themandatory provision of psychological (or psychiatric) carefor children, to teach parents to take care of a child who isprone to trihotilomaniа and trichophagia.

The multiagent approach to modelling, traditionally dedicated for distributed systems, can be applied on any platform where there are more processes or control threads. The world of surface transport is a typical example of such a situation where high numbers of dynamic entities (agents) interacting with each other represent a complex problem to solve, analyse and visualise. The main focus of this paper is on functional description of the traffic control problem at the rail-road intersection. Unlike conventional approaches, this model assumes usage of modern (infrastructure-to-vehicle, vehicle-to-vehicle) communication technologies  as an essential base of cooperative intelligent transportation systems. The authors use the development toolkit NetLogo, explaining step-by-step the key programming details, to get a comprehensive overview of the operation of the entire system through simple definitions of a number of simple cooperating agents. The introduced model is implementation free and shows newly offered functionalities on the principal level, while a minimum theory of collective intelligence hidden in the background is needed.
The Effects of Fiscal Decentralization on General and Local Government Size: Does Composite Index Matter?
Authors: CANIKALP Ebru , TURAN Taner , ÜNLÜKAPLAN İlter
Published: October 2021

This article examines the impact of fiscal decentralization on the size of both general and local government using data for 36 countries over the period 1972–2019 and GMM. Our results consistently suggest that fiscal decentralization does not exert a significant impact on general government size. On the other hand, there exists a positive relationship between fiscal decentralization and local government size. We should note that our baseline regression results don’t significantly change when we use different fiscal decentralization indexes. Therefore, we don’t find any evidence for the argument that fiscal decentralization would be helpful to restrict the expansion of government size. Moreover, we present some evidence for the flypaper effect. Additionally, we find a positive relationship between the fiscal importance and local governments, interpreted as an indicator of expenditure competition instead of race to bottom.

Information and Technological sophistication makes consumer preferences’ change. In the past, TV became the only option if you wanted to watch entertainment. Now, various gadgets was available, offering internet-based entertainments. It is a huge market for wide range of products that enable multiple media consumption through combination on both traditional tech forms of media which allows individuals to retain a high level of control in their media use through on-demand media services like Netflix or Viu.This study aims to examine the affect of generation Z attitude and subjective norm to their intention in using streaming services with perspective explained in Theory of Reasoned Action. Generation Z is the generation who is born in the period of 1995 to 2010. The young people of Z generation very familiar with updated technology since their childhood. They used to modern and sophisticated gadgets intensively. Purposive random sampling was applied to collect the data from Diponegoro University’s student (N= 100). Further, quantitative and qualitative methods were invoked to analyze the data. The records of indepth-interview were transcribed and processed using Atlas TI. The results showed that respondents were likely less an intention nor subjectove norm in using streaming service. Thereafter, this study suggests that the content matters play an important role for generation Z in using streaming service, such as Netflix and Viu.

Partindo da análise da exposição “Àspera Melodia: Carlos Asp, 70 anos”, o presente artigo propôs apresentar e discutir os resultados obtidos mediante pesquisa de recepção realizada junto ao público externo da exposição. A investigação privilegiou uma análise voltada aspectos expográficos da mostra, norteada por referencial teórico especializado, considerando questões referentes à autonomia, fruição e recepção dos públicos, bem como seu nível de formação e frequência. Diante desta circunstância, objetivou-se refletir, questionar e rever formas possíveis de potencializar o diálogo da arte contemporânea com diferentes indivíduos, de forma que o museu cumpra de maneira efetiva seu papel social diante da multiplicidade de públicos. Os dados apontaram que os elementos secundários de informação possuem potencial de auxiliar na recepção da mensagem proposta, emergindo como relevantes meios pelos quais os visitantes não especializados se aproximam da proposta expositiva. À vista disso, os participantes alegaram que textos introdutórios e legendas, assim como a presença de conteúdos complementares, como informações sobre o artista e contexto de sua produção, auxiliam a experiência e diálogo com o tema. Notou-se que conforme se amplia a frequência em instituições artísticas e culturais, a proximidade com os códigos e significados da arte torna-se proporcional. Por fim, foi possível verificar que para o público tido como especialista e para aquele considerado leigo, as lacunas comunicacionais podem desfavorecer a compreensão diante da exposição.

A presente pesquisa, apresenta por meio de análise de fontes documentais primárias e secundárias, o Primeiro Congresso Nacional de Museus realizado em Ouro Preto no ano de 1956. A partir da observação da dificuldade em encontrar bibliografia que tratasse o tema, verificou-se a necessidade de iniciar a busca em periódicos presentes na Hemeroteca Digital da Biblioteca Nacional do Rio de Janeiro. Diante das fontes jornalísticas analisadas, identificou-se um núcleo de pessoas ativas nas decisões culturais dos anos 1950, mais especificamente que se envolviam com museus e que estas permaneceram quase as mesmas entre os anos 1930 e 1950. As agências que estiveram presentes no I Congresso, bem como seus agentes revelam trajetórias individuais e coletivas, em prol dos museus e seu desenvolvimento. Percebeu-se durante a realização da pesquisa que, os museus desempenharam um caráter internacional, pautado principalmente pelo intercâmbio de seus profissionais. Membros da Organização Nacional do ICOM juntamente com demais técnicos e profissionais que atuavam nos museus brasileiros e em agências do patrimônio se reuniram pela primeira vez em Ouro Preto, para a realização do evento em 1956, buscando a troca de conhecimentos, discutindo problemáticas e repensando soluções acerca da realidade dos museus brasileiros.
