The two-component model of behavior factors: The phenomenon of anticipatory engagement of a situationally dominant factor
Authors: Chernozub O. L. , Tereshkin S. I.
Published: July 2022

One of the debatable issues in the theory of social action is the interaction of explicit and implicit factors in their influence on human behavior. The ‘parallel’ influence models oppose the ‘sequential’ models. The former argue that one factor determines another, and the last one influences behavior. The latter argue that factors are of an independent nature and affect behavior each in their own way. In practical terms, agreeing with one of these models means rejecting or accepting the idea of a conflict of factors and of behavior as a result of this conflict. In the previous article, we showed that the influence of ideologically biased statements on the explicit and implicit components of the attitude towards the object of these statements can be exactly the opposite. It is necessary to check whether this phenomenon is stable. If so, it will be necessary to recognize the independent nature of the factors of behavior. Such a check was carried out and (within the limits of the empirical data) confirmed the correctness of the ‘parallel’ models. This conclusion is all the more convincing because it was obtained by observing the dynamic reaction of the associations between the components of the attitude and the assumed factors of its formation. As the criticality of respondents increases, the nature of this relationship predictably changes. But it changes differently for the explicit and implicit component of the attitude. Moreover, we identified a phenomenon of the “anticipatory engagement of a situationally dominant factor”. If we are not mistaken in understanding its nature, the very foundations of theories of the ‘sequential’ influence are under a question.
Las movilidades esclavizadas del río Grande de la Magdalena, Nuevo Reino de Granada, siglo XVIII
Authors: Bonil Gómez Katherine
Published: July 2022

El presente artículo explora las movilidades esclavizadas en el Nuevo Reino de Granada durante el siglo XVIII, centrándose en el río Magdalena, sus puertos, las zonas rurales aledañas y las redes de caminos que convergían en este. Analiza las múltiples pero muchas veces ignoradas referencias de desplazamientos de mujeres y hombres esclavizados a lo largo y ancho de la geografía fluvial. El artículo demuestra que la población esclavizada, tanto masculina como femenina, forjó prácticas de movilidad, no solo en espacios urbanos sino también rurales. Estas prácticas fueron significadas y legitimadas por parte de los mismos esclavizados, en el marco de la cultura política colonial, y les permitieron defender ciertos grados de autonomía, pero también desempeñar un papel central en la construcción de redes sociales, en la circulación de información relevante para las comunidades y la política local y, en últimas, en la integración de esta geografía fluvial.
Recursos técnicos empleados en la reparación de las murallas de Cartagena de Indias en el siglo XVIII
Authors: Galindo-Diaz Jorge , Mejía Clavijo Camilo
Published: July 2022

Aunque se puede pensar que las técnicas de rehabilitación de estructuras que se consideran históricas son una preocupación reciente en la arquitectura, estudios sobre procesos de intervención llevados a cabo en el pasado  permiten comprender que se trata de acciones desarrolladas con frecuencia como solución ante la falta de dinero para la construcción de obras nuevas o ante la necesidad de dar rápidas soluciones de carácter práctico. El objetivo de este artículo es presentar la manera en que a lo largo del siglo XVIII se hicieron varios e importantes trabajos de reconstrucción y reparación estructural en las murallas de Cartagena de Indias, ante los daños causados tanto por los ataques enemigos a la ciudad como por los continuos embates de la naturaleza. Haciendo uso de fuentes primarias (planos e informes  originales) se describe la manera en que se ejecutaron obras de este tipo sobre la denominada Muralla Real o frente de la Marina, lo cual contribuye a la comprensión de las formas de conocimiento y las habilidades operativas con que se contaba en ese momento.
Torrefacción de biomasa en un reactor de tornillo a escala de banco: efecto de la temperatura y del tipo de biomasa
Authors: Jaramillo Fredy E. , Alvarado Pedro N. , Mazo Ricardo A.
Published: July 2022

El uso intensivo de combustibles fósiles contribuye significativamente al calentamiento global y a la creciente crisis energética mundial, en consecuencia, es necesario el desarrollo de fuentes de energía alternativas que permitan flexibilizar la matriz energética y mitigar los impactos ambientales. Una opción destacada es la conversión de biomasa residual a energía, pues la biomasa constituye un combustible con impacto menor respecto a las emisiones de CO2. Por consiguiente, este estudio tuvo como objetivo promover las propiedades fisicoquímicas de dos biomasas residuales, el aserrín de pino y la borra de café, mediante el proceso de torrefacción. La valorización energética de las biomasas se realizó en un reactor de tornillo a escala de banco (2.8 kg/h). Se evaluó el efecto de la temperatura en el rango entre 200 °C y 300 °C y se caracterizaron las biomasas torrefactadas mediante técnicas instrumentales: poder calorífico, análisis próximo, análisis infrarrojo y microscopía electrónica de barrido. Para ambas biomasas, al aumentar la temperatura de proceso se obtuvo un incremento del poder calorífico. Este comportamiento se asocia a la degradación térmica de la fracción de hemicelulosa, así como al incremento del carbono fijo. Además, en los análisis infrarrojos se observó una disminución de las señales OH y H-O-H asociadas a grupos funcionales polares. Los resultados anteriores muestran el alto potencial de valorización de las biomasas de estudio, respecto a la disminución de grupos polares que tienen gran afinidad por el agua, así como la obtención de poderes caloríficos cercanos a un combustible tipo carbón lignito o subbituminoso.
Macro-level collaboration network analysis and visualization with Essential Science Indicators: A case of social science
Authors: Dong-Hui Yang Dong-Hui Yang , Wang Yan , Yu Tian , Liu Xueyu
Published: July 2022

Cross-national collaboration has been shaped by internationalization of scientific relationships. To study the synergic network of high quality research patterns, this paper collects a total of 300 top 50 items, in each indicator from the big database, Essential Science Indicators, which lists top-ranking papers, scientists and institutions from 2005 to 2015. First, the country level relations of co-authorship addresses in five indicator variables are extracted in the field of social sciences to build international collaboration networks. The social network analysis (SNA) method was applied to calculate the metrics of vertices, edges, average degree, average shortest path, diameter, clustering coefficient and betweenness centrality to illuminate the structural characters and collaboration patterns. Based on the international collaboration similarities, this paper also visualizes the endemic clustering groups of six networks, as cluster dendrograms, using Hierarchical Clustering (HC) method. Findings illustrate that USA, England and Canada are outstanding countries in the international collaboration networks of five indicators. There are geographical groups in European countries in the collaboration networks of scientists, institutes and countries/territories. It is also found that international collaboration contributes to both highly cited papers in the recent 10 years and hot papers in the recent 2 years in this field, rather than geographical similarity does. Those conclusions are critical for policy makers to produce guidelines on how to encourage researchers to build collaboration networks with high-level scholars in different countries
Malaysian researchers on open data: The first national survey on awareness, practices and attitudes
Authors: Hodonu-Wusu James Oluwaseyi , Noorhidawati A. , Abrizah A.
Published: July 2022

The study investigates the awareness, practices and attitudes of researchers in regard to open data – i.e. the sharing and reuse of research data – which is part of a larger study that concentrated on the scholarly communication readiness of Malaysian researchers in Open Science. The data were gathered by means of a survey which obtained 135 responses from researchers based in five research universities in Malaysia. The main conclusions are: (a) the researchers are aware of open data, yet, they are not practising it as shown in the mean scores, as well as in their responses towards the statements asked; (b) unclear information on data privacy policy, misuse of data, and the fear of losing publication opportunity are part of disincentives for data sharing. The requisite for open data understanding, practices and attitudinal change is needed for these may impact research practices, government policies and scientific knowledge, leading to research transparency and accountability, social benefit and economic growth. This paper concludes with a discussion that policies incentivizing the sharing and reuse of open data, as well as tools and guidance to support data sharing, and a strong incentives and rewards to implement open data among researchers, should be encouraged. Future studies should look into the importance of rewards for data sharing among researchers’ institutions. Studies bridging the gap between policy and practices of open data should be examined, if true openness in research is to be established in Malaysia.

This study analyzed top papers published in the field of Library and Information Science (LIS) published between 2009 and 2019 and included in the Web of Science (WoS) subject category “Information Science & Library Science”. Data of the 501 top papers were extracted from the Essential Science Indicators (ESI) database comprising 499 highly cited papers and 16 hot papers in the field. The distributions of document type, language of publication, scientific output, and publication of journals are reported in this paper. The co-authorship network visualization of authors, organizations and countries, co-occurrence network visualization of all keywords are visualized using VOSviewer software. The 501 papers, all written in English language, were from 1,579 authors employed at 680 organizations based in 59 countries/territories. The papers were published in 40 journals in the field. The top 5 core journals ranked based on the impact factor (IF) were MIS Quarterly, Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association, International Journal of Information Management, Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, and Information Management. The top 5 organizations were University of Maryland (USA), University of Wolverhampton (UK), Vanderbilt University (USA), Indiana University (USA), and Wuhan University (China). Authors from the following countries contributed the most - USA, People’s Republic of China, England, Canada and Netherlands. Based on network map using VOSviewer, there were micro, meso and macro level collaborations based on common interests in a specific topics. Analysis of all keywords showed that the research were distributed into 6 clusters. This study concludes that one important characteristic of top papers is the journal reputation, therefore authors can choose their ideal journal with a high JIF and quartile to publish papers in the English language related to this research field.
The emergence of China in international academic management research: A nuanced analysis following the new f²-methodology
Authors: Fassin Yves
Published: July 2022

In a few decades, China has made a huge rise in science, exemplified with an impressive expansion of academic publications. The management field has traditionally been dominated by the US universities and Anglo-Saxon researchers. The objective of the present study is to analyze through the application of a new bibliometric methodology whether the progress of Chinese universities in academic management research is in line with China’s overall progress in science. The classic analysis of volume productivity and citation count is complemented with the recent f²-methodology. It is based on a more fine-grained classification of publications into categories of citations, focusing on the 10%-percentile and the h-core. The methodology is applied here at a country level and at the level of the university, for all publications and for those of the last 5 years. The results confirm the rise of academic publications by Chinese management scholars, but the analysis of publication outlets and the international collaborations nuance this progress. The US dominance in academic management research is maintained; despite a decline in relative terms, the US publication volume and the higher citations remain in absolute terms. This application of the f²-methodology with weighted factors in function of impact brings nuances to first level bibliometric analyses based on volume productivity or on total citations. This nuanced analysis results in fairer assessments and more equitable rankings. The application of the compound F²-index illustrates the dynamics in bibliometrics.

Authors: Pandita Ramesh , Singh Shivendra
Published: July 2022

The purpose of the study is to compute the Journal Packing Density (JPD) i.e. the average research articles published in each volume or each issue of a research journal. Library and Information Science (LIS) journals published across Asia and indexed in Scopus during the period 2015 to 2019 were taken as samples. The study is based on secondary data retrieved from SCImago Journal and Country Ranking (SJCR), which includes the journals and country scientific indicators developed from the information contained in the Scopus database. In all, 14 LIS journals were identified from Asia. It was found that there are 51 sovereign nations in Asia, and 43 (84.31%) countries are actively undertaking research in LIS and only 8 (18.60%) countries are publishing LIS journals. India and Taiwan are the two leading countries in the region publishing 3 journals each. In all, 1558 articles were published by 14 LIS journals across Asia from 2015 through 2019 in 58 volumes with a JPD of 26.86 articles per journal per volume. Apart from these, research deficit in terms of journals and research articles has also been computed alongside a brief overview on how JPD of a journal can help in identifying the possibility of its predatory nature.
Not just nickel-and-dime: An analysis of journal articles winning Ig Nobel prize during 2011–2020
Authors: Kan Yeung Andy Wai
Published: July 2022

Ig Nobel prize is a satirical award given to achievements that are unusual, imaginative, and frequently produced in the form of journal articles. It was largely unknown how these award-winning articles were disseminated in the community in terms of academic citations and social media attentions. This study evaluated all journal articles winning the award during the period of 2011–2020 for their citation and social media performance metrics. There were 89 Ig Nobel prize-winning journal articles indexed by Scopus. On average, they were cited 42.5 ± 102.4 times, published in journals with mean impact factor of 3.476 ± 4.102, and mentioned 947.3 ± 2887.2 times and 263.2 ± 502.7 times on Facebook and Twitter, respectively. Over half of them were published in the first quartile journals and awarded within 2 years since publication. Though Ig Nobel prize was originally intended to be satirical, prize-winning articles themselves were indeed impactful in the academia.

Authors: Raleigh Meghan F. , Seehusen Dean A. , Phillips Julie P. , Prunuske Jacob , Morley Christopher P. , Polverento Molly E. , Kovar-Gough Iris , Wendling Andrea L.
Published: July 2022

Background and Objectives: Medical schools should understand how to matriculate students who are more likely to enter primary care specialties and put admissions processes into place that achieve this result. However, there are no existing reviews that have systematically evaluated medical school admission practices and primary care specialty choice.
Methods: We conducted a narrative synthesis utilizing a systematic literature search to evaluate the effectiveness of medical school admission strategies designed to increase the percentage of graduates entering primary care specialties.
Results: We included 34 articles in the narrative review. Multiple prematriculation programs that appear to produce students with a high likelihood of entering primary care have been described in the literature. However, all of these studies are from single institutions, were observational, and limited by selection bias. Applicants who self-identify an interest in primary care, grew up with a rural background, and are older at matriculation are more likely to enter primary care, with stated interest in primary care being most predictive. Gender and race have been associated with primary care specialty choice in some studies, but not all. Insufficient literature on admissions policies and procedures exists to draw conclusions about best practices.
Conclusions: Medical schools that want to increase the percentage of graduates entering primary care should consider developing a prematriculation program that attracts and prepares motivated and talented students with primary care interest. Admissions committees should understand which demographic criteria are associated with increased likelihood of entering primary care. The most important identifiable trait is an applicant’s stated interest in primary care.

Se debe estudiar la relación de la variable condición laboral con respecto al rendimiento académico, ya que, en el CEU San José, se encontró una relación positiva del empleo con el desempeño del estudiantado.
CONSIDERAÇÕES SOBRE OS EXERCÍCIOS ESPIRITUAIS NIETZSCHIANOS PARA A AUTOFORMAÇÃO
Authors: Batista Lauxen Paulo Junior
Published: July 2022

Friedrich Nietzsche (1844 – 1900) foi um filósofo que se ocupou com o tema da autoformação, isto é, da produção da própria existência por meio de certa relação de si para consigo. Tema que aparece atrelado à filosofia, essa entendida como um modo de vida. Considerando isso, buscaremos, em um primeiro momento, caracterizar essa concepção de filosofia. Para isso, devemos definir a noção de exercícios espirituais que é central naquela concepção. Faremos isso com base no quadro teórico elaborado por Pierre Hadot (1922 – 2010) em O que é a filosofia antiga?. Em um segundo momento, faremos alguns apontamentos sobre o modo de vida filosófico nietzschiano e, portanto, sobre alguns possíveis exercícios espirituais que comporiam esse modo de vida. Faremos isso principalmente com base no segundo capítulo de Ecce Homo, intitulado Por que sou tão inteligente. Em um último momento, concluiremos com o entendimento de que os exercícios espirituais nietzschianos poderiam talvez inspirar novas práticas pedagógicas ou pelo menos inspirar cada um a formar a si mesmo em vista de uma vida mais autêntica, saudável, independente e feliz.

Authors: Aparecida Areias Adriana
Published: July 2022

Resumo: A contabilidade aplicada ao setor público permite aos gestores o controle das contas públicas e a assertiva tomada de decisões. Além disso, a transparência na divulgação das contas públicas possibilita à sociedade verificar como estão sendo aplicadas as receitas arrecadadas. Este artigo analisa o balanço orçamentário de Itajubá, Minas Gerais, no período entre 2014 e 2018, com o objetivo de verificar os níveis de gastos, de endividamento e de arrecadação do município. O método utilizado foi o estudo de caso e os instrumentos de coleta de dados o orçamento aprovado, a execução do orçamento e índices contábeis. Verificou-se que, nos anos de 2015, 2017 e 2018, o resultado orçamentário foi deficitário e a receita prevista superior à receita arrecadada; a despesa fixada foi superior à despesa executada e houve aumento da capitalização. Observou-se, também, que o município cumpre com a regra de ouro, com as normas estabelecidas pela LRF, bem como com a Lei nº 4.320/64 em relação ao último ano de mandato. Conclui-se que o município de Itajubá conseguiu controlar os gastos sem aumentar o endividamento nos anos de 2014, 2016, 2017 e 2018, ademais, promoveu o crescimento da arrecadação ao longo do período analisado.

Authors: Alcântara Vasconcelos Viviane , Araci de Lima Maria , Carlos Rodrigues Rubens
Published: July 2022

Este trabalho tem como foco o estudo da proposta de Emenda Constitucional nº 45/2019, analisando as principais características do Imposto sobre Bens e Serviços – IBS. Assim, o objetivo desta pesquisa consiste em examinar os principais aspectos relacionados ao Imposto sobre Bens e Serviços propostos na PEC 45 e as suas alterações, no que concerne à diminuição da carga tributária das empresas tributadas pelo lucro presumido. Como metodologia, o estudo foi realizado por meio de pesquisa documental e estudo de caso, sendo analisadas as movimentações de compra e venda por uma empresa industrial, contrastando o sistema atual com o proposto pela PEC 45,  mediante análise comparativa dos modelos. Dentre os achados, verificou-se uma redução significativa da carga tributária caso seja aplicada o proposto pela reforma tributária e redução no seu custo, e assim, maiores lucros e possível competitividade maior no mercado. No entanto, não foi analisado como os Entes federativos serão impactados com a possível aprovação desta reforma, bem como empresas que não estão enquadradas no lucro presumido, gerando oportunidades para pesquisas futuras.
A inserção da Bahia na economia internacional no biênio 2019/2020
Authors: De Araújo Silva Gesner Brehmer
Published: July 2022

Desde o advento dos processos de globalização, ainda no final do século passado, as relações comerciais internacionais vêm, paulatinamente, ganhando cada vez mais intensidade e velocidade, tendo como resultado tanto o aumento da produção mundial, quanto o surgimento de acordos comerciais e blocos econômicos que possibilitam aos países inserir-se nesses mercados externos. Nesse contexto, o presente artigo tem como objetivo estudar e analisar a inserção baiana na economia internacional no biênio 2019/2020. Para o cumprimento desse objetivo, além de uma análise teórica da economia internacional e uma análise da evolução econômica da Bahia, foram utilizadas as bases de dados de exportações e importações da Superintendência de Estudos Econômicos e Sociais da Bahia (SEI) e do Ministério da Indústria, Comércio Exterior e Serviços (MDIC) de modo a estabelecer análises da inserção da economia baiana na economia internacional, principalmente no âmbito das exportações e importações. Os resultados obtidos revelam que a Bahia tem, em suas principais conexões globais, as commodities agrícolas e os produtos derivados da indústria química e petroquímica, que por sua vez tem como principal destino a China, União Europeia e Estados Unidos, além de apresentar significativas quedas em suas relações com a América do Sul.
Os direitos sociais no Brasil e as constituições de 1934 e de 1988: a atualização de uma memória
Authors: Ferreira do Nascimento Marilza , Araújo Medeiros Ruy Hermann
Published: July 2022

Este trabalho teve como objetivo realizar uma atualização da memória dos direitos sociais no Brasil, com base na análise comparativa entre os dispositivos das constituições brasileiras de 1934 e de 1988. A motivação para a escolha do tema relaciona-se com a importância de se relembrar o percurso histórico dos direitos sociais, para se evitar o esquecimento dos contextos sociais em que esses foram conquistados sob o plano formal. Na seção 1, fez-se breve introdução, na qual se indicou a escolha do método analítico em que a temática da memória seria afrontada com base na teoria dos lugares de memória de Nora (1993 [1984]) e de memória histórica de Sá (2007).  Na seção 2, apresentou-se a noção de memória histórica e traçou-se brevemente o percurso histórico dos direitos sociais, a demonstrar que esse foi inteiramente marcado por importantes lutas sociais e políticas das classes trabalhadoras e de seus aliados. Na seção 3, com fulcro nas referidas bases teóricas, sustentou-se que a constituição se consubstancia em lugar de memória dos direitos sociais, uma vez que na prática interpretativa de seus dispositivos, esses são atualizados e têm os seus percursos rememorados. Na seção 4, realizou-se a comparação entre as disciplinas jurídico-constitucionais dos direitos sociais estabelecidas em 1934 e em 1988, na qual se procurou resgatar a memória discursiva da interpretação das normas instauradoras desses direitos. Por fim, apresentou-se a conclusão, no sentido de que os direitos sociais previstos na Constituição são imediatamente exigíveis em face do parágrafo 1º do artigo 5º do texto constitucional de 1988, o qual deferiu aplicabilidade imediata às normas constitucionais garantidoras de direitos fundamentais; de que os direitos sociais continuam sendo negados à grande parte da população desde 1934, quando foram constitucionalmente garantidos pela primeira vez e de que a reiterada negativa de efetividade a esses direitos se deve, por um lado, às políticas governamentais, cuja preocupação é maior com a eficiência fiscal do que com as necessidades básicas e dignidade das pessoas social e economicamente vulneráveis; e por outro, à ganância da iniciativa privada que captura os direitos sociais transformando-os em mercadorias, mormente o direito à educação, à saúde e à segurança.
Em que consistem, sinteticamente, as críticas teóricas e metodológicas à ortodoxia econômica?
Authors: De Oliveira Silva Raphael , Diz Marques Mabel
Published: July 2022

Este artigo tem como objetivo apresentar de maneira introdutória, as críticas da heterodoxia econômica imputadas à economia neoclássica. Para tanto, por meio a revisão de literatura, busca-se a explicitação dos pressupostos e noção positivista dentro do arcabouço teórico e metodológico. Ademais, é empreendido o esforço de identificar, com base em seus fundamentos, a sua percepção do papel e função do Estado. Conforme se apresenta, ao supor que as relações econômicas são baseadas no comportamento maximizador do homo economicus racional e na estabilidade do equilíbrio dos mercados com caráter natural e universal, a ortodoxia econômica não contempla a possibilidade de a história vir a alterar decisivamente seus teoremas fundamentais, uma vez que a história é reduzida à estática simultânea de equações.

Published: July 2022

A promoção da acessibilidade é fator essencial para a inclusão de pessoas com deficiência em diversos âmbitos da sociedade, como em espaços de contato e imersão cultural. Destes, pode-se citar o museu do Instituto Lauro de Souza Lima, de Bauru/SP. Com uma nova exposição em 2020, fez-se necessária a busca pela inclusão de recursos de acessibilidade para que mais públicos pudessem conhecer o museu. Assim, a partir do fomento do ProAC Edital - Programa de Apoio à Cultura 13/2019 do Estado de São Paulo, a museóloga responsável e o projeto de extensão Biblioteca Falada, da Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp) de Bauru, produziram audiodescrições para a visita guiada da exposição. A inserção deste recurso e disponibilização de fácil acesso pôde promover a inclusão de pessoas com deficiência visual e outros públicos que se beneficiam da informação em formato sonoro.
POPULARIZANDO A CIÊNCIA: UM VEÍCULO PARA A CONSTRUÇÃO E DISSEMINAÇÃO DO CONHECIMENTO CIENTÍFICO SOBRE ZOODERMATOSES
Authors: Maciel Moreira Henrique
Published: July 2022

A divulgação de materiais de cunho científico é de importância ímpar, pois possibilita que esse tipo de conhecimento possa fazer parte do cotidiano de uma parcela populacional que não tem acesso a essas informações. Diante disso, o objetivo deste trabalho é relatar a experiência do uso da rádio e do Instagram como veiculação alternativa para a divulgação de materiais de caráter científico sobre zoodermatoses. Ao abordar os temas de escabiose humana (sarna) e de miíase furunculóide (berne), o programa de extensão universitário Popularizando a Ciência espera informar tanto à população ouvinte da Rádio UESB 97.5 FM quanto aos seguidores do Instagram @popularizandoaciencia sobre aspectos como formas de contágio, quadro clínico, tratamento e profilaxia a respeitos dessas dermatoses parasitárias. Através da avaliação de impacto veiculada pelo Instagram, observou-se que a população absorveu as informações passadas. Além disso, declararam ter seus conhecimentos sobre as áreas, em foco, aumentados, cumprindo, assim, com o objetivo previamente traçado pelo programa. Dessa forma, entende-se que a produção de materiais científicos e as suas divulgações nos meios de comunicação e na rede social são ações que corroboram para a despolarização do conhecimento científico, bem como pode ser usado, por exemplo, como material didático em aulas de ciências.

O artigo apresenta como tema as simulações de desempenho aliada com a análise sintática do espaço como ferramentas de avaliação de decisões de projeto. Fruto de um projeto de extensão, objetiva avaliar o desempenho da mudança de layouts em um edifício empresarial e o impacto dessas nos padrões de circulação e acessos. Desenvolveu-se através de uma análise comparativa entre as configurações espaciais diferentes e a implementação do modelo Open Office. Utilizou-se como recurso metodológico a elaboração de mapas de cheios e vazios e diagnóstico dos espaços através de simulações de desempenho e aplicando conceitos de conectividade, integração e inteligibilidade oriundos da Análise Sintática do Espaço. No estudo apresentado, nota-se que a nova proposta é visualmente mais ordenada quanto aos padrões de circulação, enquanto a atual demonstra um fluxo descontínuo e variável. Ainda é constatado, através da aplicação dos conceitos da Análise Sintática do Espaço, os ganhos em termos de visibilidade, melhoria nos padrões de movimento e possíveis ganhos de comunicação decorrentes do aumento da possibilidade de encontros na estrutura espacial.
Family offices as a new form of family business governance

Published: July 2022

Family firms form the majority of companies in almost every country in the world. The organization of the founding families, however, does not play a big role in corporate governance theory and practice. German family firms have created a relatively new form of family firm governance and organization: the family office. This specific form of organization deals with family organization, financial assets, and general family consulting
The international effect of CEO social capital on the value relevance of accounting metrics
Authors: McCumber William R. , Qiu Huan , Islam Md Shariful
Published: July 2022

We investigate the effect of chief executive officer (CEO) social capital, proxied by the CEO network centrality, on the value relevance of accounting metrics for non-US firms, and the roles country-level governance attributes play during the valuation process. We find a strong positive relation between CEO social capital and the value relevance of book equity but a strong negative relation between CEO social capital and the value relevance of earning metrics. Further analysis shows that the results are robust with the use of different regression models, and that strong country-level governance quality cannot significantly alter the significant negative relation between CEO social capital and value relevance of earning metrics. Interestingly, we find that the positive relation between CEO social capital and the value relevance of book equity is weakened while the negative relation between CEO social capital and value relevance of earnings metrics is strengthened for firms in developed countries where country-level governance is stronger and institutional investors play a more important role in the market. Overall, our evidence supports the theory that CEO social capital has both “positive” and “detrimental” effects on firm and market outcomes

In vitro cell culture experiments are widely used to study cellular
behavior in most biological research fields. Except for suspension
cells, most human cell types are cultured as adherent monolayers on a
plastic surface. While technically convenient, monolayer cultures can
suffer from limitations in terms of physiological relevance, as their
resemblance to complex in vivo tissue structures is limited. To address
these limitations, three-dimensional (3D) cell culture systems have
gained increased interest as they mimic key structural and functional
properties of their in vivo tissue counterparts. Nevertheless, protocols
established on monolayer cell cultures may require adjustments if they
are to be applied to 3D cell cultures. As gene expression quantification
is an essential part of many in vitro experiments, we evaluated and
optimized a direct cell lysis, reverse transcription and qPCR protocol
applicable for 3D cell cultures. The newly developed protocol wherein
gene expression is determined directly from crude cell lysates showed
improved cell lysis compared to the standard protocol, accurate gene
expression quantification, hereby avoiding time-consuming cell
harvesting and RNA extraction.

In this paper, we focus on the following nonlinear
Schr\”odinger equations with linear couples
\begin{equation*} \begin{cases}
-\Delta
u+V_1(x)u+\lambda_1u=\mu
_1\int\limits_{\mathbb{R}^{3}}\frac{|u(y)|^p}{|x-y|}\,dy|u|^{p-2}u+\beta
v \hspace{5mm} \text{in}
\hspace{1mm}\mathbb
R^{3},\\ -\Delta
v+V_2(x)v+\lambda_2v=\mu
_2\int\limits_{\mathbb{R}^{3}}\frac{|v(y)|^q}{|x-y|}\,dy|v|^{q-2}v+\beta
u \hspace{5mm} \text{in}
\hspace{1mm}\mathbb
R^{3},\\
\int\limits_{\mathbb{R}^{3}}|u|^2\,dx=a,
\hspace{1mm}
\int\limits_{\mathbb{R}^{3}}|v|^2\,dx=b,
\end{cases} \end{equation*} where
$\frac{5}{3}0$, $a,b\geq 0$,
$\beta \in
\mathbb{R}\setminus\{0\}$,
$\lambda_1,\lambda_2\in\mathbb{R}$
are Lagrange multipliers and
$V_1(x),V_2(x):\mathbb{R}^{3}\to
\mathbb{R}$ are trapping potentials. We prove the
existence of the solutions with prescribed
$L^2(\mathbb{R})$-norm with trivial trapping
potentials and nontrivial trapping potentials by applying the
rearrangement inequalities.
Acute Iatrogenic Complications After Mitral Valve Repair
Authors: Paparella Domenico , Squiccimarro Enrico , Mauro Michele Di , katsavrias Kostas , Calafiore Antonio
Published: July 2022

Mitral valve repair is the procedure of choice to correct mitral
regurgitation. However, some dangerous complications, correlated to the
surgical technique, can occur in the operating theatre, at the end of
the procedure. The most frequent is the systolic anterior motion. Due to
a systolic dislocation of the anterior leaflet toward the outflow tract,
it causes both obstruction of the outflow tract and mitral
regurgitation. Often it is due to excess of catecholamines or to reduced
filling of the left ventricle, but sometimes needs further surgical
maneuvers, focused on moving posteriorly the coaptation line. It can be
obtained by shortening the posterior leaflet or increasing the size of
the ring or applying an Alfieri stitch to limit the movements of the
anterior leaflet. Another complication, often underdiagnosed and
potentially lethal, is the injury of the circumflex artery that happens
at the level of the anterolateral commissure or P1 zone. Two mechanisms
are involved. The first one is direct injury of the artery by a stitch
(roughly 25% of the patients present a distance
artery-annulus<3 mm). The second one the distortion of the
artery, attracted toward the annulus by a misplaced stitch. The
attraction causes kinking with stenosis of different degrees till
functional occlusion. However, the artery has to be far from the annulus
and the atrial tissue has to be stiff and resistant, as after an
infective process, to move the CX toward the annulus without tearing.
Positioning the stitches very close to the mitral leaflets in the
dangerous area is the only prevention to the complication. The treatment
in the operating theatre is partial or total removal/re-implantation of
the annular sutures or coronary artery bypass grafting to the circumflex
area. If the injury is demonstrated only after a coronary angiography,
percutaneous revascularization can be attempted before further surgical
treatment.

Background and aims: We aimed to analyze the correlation of
urinary with serum NT-proBNP concentrations in acute bronchiolitis and
its association with the severity of the disease.  Material
and Methods: A pilot observational study conducted between 1st October
and 31st March 2022, including acute bronchiolitis cases who attended
our institution. Serum and urinary NT-proBNP concentrations were
determined using the Alere NT-proBNP assay in time-matched urine and
blood samples. We explored the linear relationship between both
concentrations and compared clinical outcomes indicative of severe acute
bronchiolitis between groups of raised and normal urinary NT-proBNP. 
Results: 17 infants (median age 68 (36-91) days) with
36 time-matched samples were included. The urinary and serum
concentrations of NT-proBNP were significantly correlated with
(r=0.867 & R-squared coefficient=0.751;
p<0.001). The log-10-transformed urinary
NT-proBNP concentrations were higher at the time of hospital admission
in those infants that required PICU admission with ventilatory
support compared with those without this outcome (1.85 (1.16-2.44) pg/mg
vs 0.63 (0.45-0.84) pg/mg);
p<0.001); and resulted positively and strongly correlated with
the duration of the ventilatory support (rho=0.76; p<0.001)
and the LOS hospitalization (rho=0.84; p<0.001)
Conclusion: The measurement of urinary NT-proBNP concentrations
could be a reliable surrogate for serum NT-proBNP levels highlighting
the potential value of the urinary NT-proBNP as a non-invasive tool to
assess severity in acute bronchiolitis.

Salt-tolerant superabsorbent polymer (SAP) was synthesized to improve
the water retention properties of saline-alkali soil. The Lop Nur
saline-alkali soil of Xinjiang with high salinity (total dissolved salt:
18.13wt%) was the object of improvement. The good swelling capacity of
SAP (69.04 g/g) under high salinity condition contributed to the superb
slow-release water property and further

[excellent](https://www.wordhippo.com/what-is/another-word-for/excellent.html)
water retention property of SAP-saline-alkali soil (28 days), which
showed a good application potential of SAP in saline-alkali land. The
swelling mechanism under high salt condition was also explored. Notably,
owe to the complexation reaction between and three hydrophilic groups of
SAP, the swelling capability of SAP tended to keep steady when the
concentration of CaCl exceeded 0.55wt%.
Interestingly, the distribution of the calcium salt in SAP was directly
displayed by the maximum intensity projection of computed tomography.

Abstract Objective: to find the relationship between using assisted
reproductive technology (ART) and an increased risk of gestational
diabetes mellitus (GDM) Design A cohort study Setting and Population
singleton pregnant mothers aged 20–42 years during 2014- 2017, who
conceived via ART or SC Past medical history of mothers, infant feeding,
and demographic data were obtained from the mothers’ files. The
children’s height and weight were collected. The children were assessed
for growth and development using Age and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ) by
asking the mothers. Methods: One-way ANOVA, stepwise regression, and
post hoc analysis were used. Statistical analyses were made by SPSS.
Main Outcome Measures GDM Results The number of children in each group
separately is: 423 singleton pregnancies including 197 ART conceptions
(102 subjects with and 95 without GDM diagnosis), and 226 spontaneous
conceptions (116 subjects with and 110 without GDM diagnosis). Maternal
variables were significant in the child’s communication development
including preeclampsia, mother hypothyroidism, GDM, and previous
abortion. Also, child-related variables were significantly associated
with communication development consisting of neonatal weight, head and
chest circumstances, LBW, preterm, neonatal Apgar 1min/ 5 min,
congenital abnormality, neonatal hypoglycemia, and frequency of
phototherapy to decrease hyperbilirubinemia, and finally, the
significant variables. ASQ showed: The highest score mean belonged to
SC). Children born via ART – GDM got the lowest score. And those means
differences were all significant. Conclusions. Maternal diabetes during
pregnancy is an important factor in reducing the average developmental
score of the child, whether born naturally or through assisted
reproduction.
