Study of Androgenic Plant Families of Alloplasmic Introgression Lines (H. vulgare) –T. aestivum and the Use of Sister DH Lines in Breeding
Authors: Pershina Lidiya , Trubacheeva Nataliya , Badaeva Ekaterina , Belan Igor , Rosseeva Ludmila
Published: June 2020

One of the limitations in obtaining the genetic diversity of doubled haploid (DH) lines via anther culture is the development of families of regenerants, and each family represents a clone. This work examines the results of studying this phenomenon in anther culture of alloplasmic (H. vulgare)–T. aestivum and euplasmic lines with 1RS.1BL and 7DL-7Ai translocations and hybrids between them. Parameters of androgenesis such as the number of embryo-like structures, the total number of regenerants, and the number of green regenerants per 100 anthers varied depending on the genotype. In all genotypes from embryo-like structures, predominant development of families of plantlets rather than single plantlets was found. The source of family plantlets was polyembryos. About 75% of families consisted of regenerants at the same fertility level. On average, 37.74%4% of the R0 plants were fertile. The sister DH lines of three hybrid combinations were formed from seeds of R1 plants (2n = 42) with high fertility and in the presence of wheat–alien translocations. After four years of breeding trials, the sister DH lines of three families with fungal disease resistance increased yield, and some parameters of grain quality exceeding the controls were identified as promising for breeding.

Published: June 2020

In a recent paper, the authors discussed the feasibility study of an innovative technique based on the directionality of Cherenkov light produced in a transparent material to improve the signal to noise ratio in muon imaging applications. In particular, the method was proposed to help in the correct identification of incoming muons direction. After the first study by means of Monte Carlo simulations with Geant4, the first reduced scale prototype of such a detector was built and tested at the Department of Physics and Astronomy "E. Majorana" of the University of Catania (Italy). The characterization technique is based on muon tracking by means of the prototype in coincidence with two scintillating tiles. The results of this preliminary test confirm the validity of the technique and stressed the importance to enhance the Cherenkov photons production to get a signal well distinguishable with respect to sensors and electronic noise.
An Efficient Distributed Area Division Method for Cooperative Monitoring Applications with Multiple UAVs
Authors: Acevedo José Joaquín , Maza Ivan , Ollero Anibal , Arrue Begoña C.
Published: June 2020

This article addresses the area division problem in a distributed manner providing a solution for cooperative monitoring missions with multiple UAVs. Starting from a sub-optimal area division, a distributed online algorithm is presented to accelerate the convergence of the system to the optimal solution, following a frequency-based approach. Based on the “coordination variables” concept and on a strict neighborhood relation to share information (left, right, above and below neighbors), this technique defines a distributed division protocol to determine coherently the size and shape of the sub-area assigned to each UAV. Theoretically, the convergence time of the proposed solution depends linearly on the number of UAVs. Validation results, comparing the proposed approach with other distributed techniques, are provided to evaluate and analyze its performance following a convergence time criterion.
Framing “The Gypsy Problem”: Populist Electoral Use of Romaphobia in Italy (2014–2019)
Authors: Cervi Laura , Tejedor Santiago
Published: June 2020

Xenophobic arguments have long been at the center of the political discourse of the Lega party in Italy, nonetheless Matteo Salvini, the new leader, capitalizing on diffused Romaphobia, placed Roma people at the center of his political discourse, institutionalizing the “Camp visit” as an electoral event. Through the analysis of eight consecutive electoral campaigns, in a six year period, mixing computer-based quantitative and qualitative content analysis and framing analysis, this study aims to display how Roma communities are portrayed in Matteo Salvini’s discourse. The study describes how “Gypsies” are framed as a threat to society and how the proposed solution—a bulldozer to raze all of the camps to the ground—is presented as the only option. The paper concludes that representing Roma as an “enemy” that “lives among us”, proves to be the ideal tool to strengthen the “us versus them” tension, characteristic of populist discourse.
Wooden Truss Analysis, Preservation Strategies, and Digital Documentation through Parametric 3D Modeling and HBIM Workflow
Authors: Massafra Angelo , Prati Davide , Predari Giorgia , Gulli Riccardo
Published: June 2020

The main focus of this paper is the most recent phase of a large research project that has studied several wooden roof structures in the area of Bologna, belonging to a set of important historical buildings, all dating back to the 16th and 18th centuries. In particular, the behavior of the wooden trusses that support pitched roofs is analyzed, according to a methodological approach, based on generative algorithms that can help researchers and technicians to improve the comprehension of wooden structures’ behavior during their entire lifespan. While all the previous case studies concerned churches, this latest step extends the survey to the roofing system of the Municipal Theater of Bologna, which has a span of approximately 25 m. The core of the process concerns the automatic transformation of the point cloud into 3D models using parametric modeling tools, such as Grasshopper generative algorithms. Following this workflow, it is possible to speed up the creation of different truss models by changing only a few input parameters. This updating of the research protocol automatically creates a Building Information Modeling (BIM) model and a calculation model for the wooden trusses to perform a structural stress analysis by linking Grasshopper tools with Dynamo-Revit features. The procedure that has been developed from previous studies is still evolving and aims to speed up the modeling procedure and introduce new tools and methods for interpreting the functioning of these structural elements when surveyed through terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) devices.
Passenger Satisfaction Evaluation of Public Transportation Using Pythagorean Fuzzy MULTIMOORA Method under Large Group Environment
Authors: Li Xu-Hui , Huang Lin , Li Qiang , Liu Hu-Chen
Published: June 2020

Passenger satisfaction is an important factor that affects the choice of travel modes for municipalities, especially in big cities. This evaluation is an important task for managers when they are considering improving the competitiveness of the public transportation system. However, passenger satisfaction evaluation is difficult as the information provided by passengers is often vague, imprecise, and uncertain. This paper aims to propose a new method, using Pythagorean fuzzy sets and multi-objective optimization by a ratio analysis plus full multiplicative form method (MULTIMOORA), to evaluate the passenger satisfaction level of the public transportation system under large group environment. The former is employed to represent the satisfaction assessments of rail transit network provided by passengers. The latter is extended and used to determine the passenger satisfaction levels of rail transit lines. In addition, a combination weighting method is suggested to compute the relative weights of evaluation criteria. A case study of the rail transit network in Shanghai is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed passenger satisfaction evaluation method. The result shows that the new method proposed in this study can not only model passengers’ satisfaction evaluation information with more uncertainties, but also determine more reasonable and credible satisfaction levels of rail transit lines.
Developing a Preliminary Causal Loop Diagram for Understanding the Wicked Complexity of the COVID-19 Pandemic

Published: June 2020

COVID-19 is a wicked problem for policy makers internationally as the complexity of the pandemic transcends health, environment, social and economic boundaries. Many countries are focusing on two key responses, namely virus containment and financial measures, but fail to recognise other aspects. The systems approach, however, enables policy makers to design the most effective strategies and reduce the unintended consequences. To achieve fundamental change, it is imperative to firstly identify the “right” interventions (leverage points) and implement additional measures to reduce negative consequences. To do so, a preliminary causal loop diagram of the COVID-19 pandemic was designed to explore its influence on socio-economic systems. In order to transcend the “wait and see” approach, and create an adaptive and resilient system, governments need to consider “deep” leverage points that can be realistically maintained over the long-term and cause a fundamental change, rather than focusing on “shallow” leverage points that are relatively easy to implement but do not result in significant systemic change.

Published: June 2020

Governments around the world have introduced a number of stringent policies to try to contain COVID-19 outbreaks, but the relative importance of such measures, in comparison to the community response to these restrictions, the amount of testing conducted, and the interconnections between them, is not well understood yet. In this study, data were collected from numerous online sources, pre-processed and analysed, and a number of Bayesian Network models were developed, in an attempt to unpack such complexity. Results show that early, high-volume testing was the most crucial factor in successfully monitoring and controlling the outbreaks; when testing was low, early government and community responses were found to be both critical in predicting how rapidly cases and deaths grew in the first weeks of the outbreak. Results also highlight that in countries with low early test numbers, the undiagnosed cases could have been up to five times higher than the officially diagnosed cases. The conducted analysis and developed models can be refined in the future with more data and variables, to understand/model potential second waves of contagions.

Published: June 2020

Akita prefecture is located in the northern part of Japan and has many cadmium-polluted areas. We herein performed an exposure assessment of cadmium in 712 and 432 female farmers in two adjacent cadmium-polluted areas (A and B, respectively), who underwent local health examinations from 2001–2004. We measured cadmium concentrations in 100 food items collected from local markets in 2003. We then multiplied the intake of each food item by its cadmium concentration in each subject to assess cadmium intake from food and summed cadmium intake from all food items to obtain the total cadmium intake. Median cadmium intake levels in areas A and B were 55.7 and 47.8 µg/day, respectively, which were both higher than that of the general population and were attributed to local agricultural products, particularly rice. We also calculated weekly cadmium intake per body weight and compared it to the previous provisional tolerable weekly intake reported by the Joint FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization)/WHO (World Health Organization) expert committee on food additives or current tolerable weekly intake in Japan of 7 µg/kg BW/week. Medians in areas A and B were 7.2 and 6.0 µg/kg BW/week, respectively. Similar estimated values were also obtained by the Monte Carlo simulation. These results demonstrated that the cadmium exposure levels among the farmers were high enough to be approximately the tolerable weekly intake.

SHARE Leadership to Solve Global Problems
Authors: Herbst Nathaniel
Published: June 2020

The COVID-19 pandemic provided a modern example of a global catastrophe that necessitated an international response. Since the world is made up of a multitude of countries, organizations, and leaders, global solutions will inevitably require leadership sharing. There is not an individual nation, organization, or leader sufficient for a universal mitigation. A collaborative approach is necessary. As with any leadership style or method, shared leadership can be done poorly or it can be done well. When it is done well, it often leads to incredible results. This paper presents a review of a collection of the literature that exists on shared leadership. This review has surfaced five elements that are crucial for effectively sharing leadership. These can be summarized into the SHARE acronym: Strengthening relationships, Having a clear structure, Addressing problems collaboratively, Releasing information, and Enlisting diverse strengths. A more robust implementation of these five features could have led to stronger shared leadership and better outcomes in the coronavirus pandemic. Fostering these attributes in the global community will undoubtedly make the world better prepared to adequately address future crises. The human toll, economic costs, and worldwide risks at stake should encourage politicians, professionals, and people of the world to SHARE leadership.
Maintaining and Enhancing Students' Collaborative Learning in a Japanese EFL Higher Education Context
Authors: Kanno Masayo
Published: June 2020

Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been a huge shift towards digital forms of education. Although Japan has never gone into full lockdown, students have been strictly kept at home and socially isolated from classroom learning for extended periods. Teachers were urged to create online teaching and learning resources and began to consider the most suitable technologies to teach their courses. This paper reports on a teacher’s ongoing efforts to develop and deliver distance-learning English as a foreign language (EFL) courses in a higher education context. Drawing on a view that learning is social development, the researcher focuses on the concept of social presence in peer-to-peer communication that could enhance collaborative learning in a virtual classroom. Synchronous distance learning courses were developed utilising a text-messaging application and collaborative text-editing software with the aim to establish a communicative learning space. Analysis into the students’ interactions in Slack workspaces – a text messaging application- indicated a variety of interpersonal, open, and cohesive communication that signalled psychological closeness in the virtual learning environment. Group discussion sessions revealed that students could feel connected to each other in the synchronous EFL courses, which demonstrated the robustness of social interaction despite physical distancing. Major difficulties lay in three areas: technology, the nature of the task, and some students’ task preferences. These three areas need to be addressed when designing and delivering a distance learning course.
Emerging Virtualization Technology
Authors: Scroggins Richard
Published: June 2020

Virtualization represents a class of technologies that covers a wide range of applications and implementations. Virtualization can be applied to hardware or software and the technologies within the umbrella of virtualization are growing. Some organizations are adopting virtualization technologies for the cost savings benefits, but they may not weigh the risks. Bizarro and Garcia(2013) write, “As the technology becomes more standardized, server virtualization has become more prevalent. Companies are realizing cost savings and greener computing. Virtualization may initially appear attractive because of additional capabilities and cost savings, but those benefits come with increased security risks.” (p. 11). As the idea of virtualization grows, so does adoption, and new improvements and virtualization technologies are emerging. Every emerging virtualization technology or innovation, however, has pros and cons or benefits and risk. Many of the emerging virtualization technologies represent an implementation challenge for project managers and implementers. This research paper will be focused on emerging virtualization technologies, implementation success factors, and virtualization risks.
Dalit Feminism: A Voice for the Voiceless in Aruna Gogulamanda’s “A Dalit Woman in the Land of Goddesses”
Authors: Gopika Unni P
Published: June 2020

Dalit Feminism is feminism, which has great significance in the contemporary casteist society. It aims at equality, right, and justice for the lowest strata of the society, that is, Dalit Women. Aruna Gogulamanda’s “A Dalit Woman in the land of Goddesses” focuses on the double-edged swordf marginalization, which a Dalit woman has to suffer in the patriarchal casteist era, both as a woman and also as a Dalit. She is a poet who articulates her voice for the voiceless section of the society, that is, the Dalit women, who are suppressed in the hands of male chauvinism.
A Comparative Postcolonial Analysis: The Conscript (1950) and The Glass Palace (2000)
Authors: Reka Mahder
Published: June 2020

The present comparative postcolonial analysis aims at drawing thematic parallels between two postcolonial novels: The Conscript (1950) by Ghebresus Hailu (Eritrea, Horn of Africa) and The Glass Palace (2000) by Amitav Ghosh, India. Though the novels are productions of two different geographical space, cultural and colonial experience, they have stark similarities. In The Conscript Hailu paints a picture of his colonized country men under Italian masters similarly, Ghosh in The Glass Palace attempts to delineate the life of Indo-Burmese people under the British Empire. Although a lot of research has been carried out on Anglophone and Francophone colonial literature, there hardly exists any analysis of Italian colonial literature. In this regard comparative analysis of The Conscript (a novel written in Tigrigna, a language spoken in Eritrea, East Africa and translated into English by Ghirmay Negash, a professor in Ohio University) and The Glass Palace, I believe will provide additional knowledge concerning Italian colonial experience visà-vis wide existing Anglophone and Francophone literature. The thematic commonalities drawn between The Conscript and The Glass Palace in this paper are native role and complicity, racism and interiorization, dislocation, colonial order, traumatic effects of colonialism in the colonized, decolonization strategies, and anticolonial consciousness. I will explore and analyze the relations of the two novels based on afore mentioned aspects. Then following the discussion I will conclude by revisiting some general points concerning the texts. This paper mainly frames its arguments on theoretical frameworks of Rene Wellek, Robert Young, Edward Said, and Franz Fanon about notions of comparative literature, resistance, and representation, exploitation, and interiorization.
A Study in the Short Stories of Kamala Das
Authors: Tiwari Jai Shankar
Published: June 2020

The study has been able to ascertain and prove beyond doubt that Das’s prose works are of no less ranking than her poems and that she has effectively employed the short story form to present the predicaments of Indian womanhood and their quest for identity and self-assertion. The exhaustive evaluation and thorough scrutiny taking up various aspects of he stories right from her themes, structure and style, narrative techniques to her portrayal of Indian women, their status in society, and identity crisis have finally led to the emergence of the New Indian woman. Das’s feminist approach and overt outlook, along with the quest for a self-determined and self-affirmed identity for Indian women, have been well established through a methodical and exhaustive contemplation of the diverse women characters. The conclusion that emerges from this study undoubtedly corroborates and attests that Kamala Das’s name stands at par with the pioneer Indian woman short story writers. Das has efficiently and effectively used the short story genre as a document of social criticism and has established herself as a feminist crusader, campaigning to acquire for the Indian womanhood an independent identity and self-dignity. Das’s short story, with its innovative style and techniques, simple language, and concise form, has been brilliantly explored in discussing the problems facing Indian womanhood, especially her search for selfhood. Das has adeptly highlighted and presented her outlooks with the help of her characters. The fact that her English fictional work has remained obscure and un-honored is a sad story and a loss to literature.
Totemic Systems is the Precursor of Religion
Authors: Sankareswari B , Kalaiselvam S
Published: June 2020

Any society with a long history of tradition and Culture has its origin and roots in religion. From this religious  tradition only next the stages of development of tradition and culture developed. It started from the ancient people to the present days casteist society. The religion developed and evolved by stages into the present day religion proper. This research paper states that the totemic system created the tendency for the later on religion. In a society, religion creates the barrier between what is sacred and what is unsacred. Totems are the basic, primitive tendencies for the later on religion. An anthropologist who studied about totems supports this argument. Totemic system is the precursor to religion and it anticipates religion later on, then comes the next stages of worship of forefathers worship of the relics, and the faith in rituals are effects of religion.

A teoria de Antonio Candido e a formação da literatura australiana
Authors: Scheidt Deborah
Published: June 2020

RESUMO: Em sua teoria de “formação literária”, Antonio Candido condiciona a existência de uma literatura “como sistema” a cinco fatores “em interação dinâmica”, divididos em dois grupos. Os dois “denominadores internos” são uma língua comum e temas que expressem os anseios e a identidade de uma coletividade. Os três “denominadores psicossociais” consistem em autores conscientes de seu papel, um público para as produções desses autores e uma linguagem literária que se traduza em obras. No contexto deste trabalho os denominadores internos são a variante australiana do inglês e as temáticas rurais relacionadas ao outback australiano e seus habitantes.  Henry Lawson é apresentado como um autor engajado com as questões identitárias da Austrália por meio de sua obra ficcional e poética, o que lhe rendeu imensa popularidade entre o público leitor e um lugar de destaque no cânone australiano. Procura-se, assim, analisar as particularidades da interação entre os elementos formadores da literatura australiana, localizando o momento de formação dessa literatura na segunda metade do século XIX, especialmente na década de 1890.

PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Antonio Candido, formação da literatura, literatura australiana.

Tendências da atuação sindical no Brasil de hoje
Authors: Lazzareschi Noêmia
Published: June 2020

Este artigo procura demonstrar que a reestruturação produtiva, isto é, a modernização tecnológica e organizacional das empresas, e as condições econômicas mundiais determinadas pelo processo de intensificação da internacionalização dos mercados prescrevem a negociação permanente como nova orientação política dos sindicatos para a defesa dos interesses dos trabalhadores, seja empresa por empresa, por setor ou articulada entre governo x sindicato x empresários. De combativos no século passado, os sindicatos tendem a adotar a estratégia da negociação direta permanente, procurando evitar a greve e, sobretudo e fundamentalmente, evitar demissões com a apresentação de reivindicações que inviabilizem a competitividade de suas empresas provocando o seu deslocamento para outras regiões, estados ou países. São negociações que visam principalmente a manutenção dos empregos, como comprovam a adesão dos metalúrgicos das grandes montadoras de automóveis ao Programa de Proteção ao Emprego (PPE) em setembro de 2015 e a aprovação da revisão do acordo coletivo celebrado em 2014 em troca de estabilidade no emprego em 2016, como será demonstrado ao longo deste artigo. Assiste-se, assim, à uma verdadeira revolução na regulamentação das relações de trabalho, pois que o negociado tende a se sobrepor ao legislado sempre que a manutenção dos empregos estiver ameaçada.
Do socialismo revolucionário ao reformismo centrista
Authors: Carvalho Guilherme Augusto Batista
Published: June 2020

O presente artigo tem o desafio de discutir a ambivalente relação entre chegada ao poder através de concessões aos setores conservadores da sociedade, prenunciada na chamada “carta ao povo brasileiro” e o discurso da disputa pelo poder baseado no argumento da busca por ganhos sociais relevantes, na qual parte da esquerda brasileira se encontra imersa desde a vitória do Partido dos Trabalhadores em 2002 na eleição presidencial no Brasil. Apresentamos aqui os atores e os principais acontecimentos que dão embasamento para a discussão proposta. Para dar fundamentação teórica, analisamos o caso à luz da teoria marxiana, buscando viabilizar reflexões a respeito da seguinte questão: alguns setores da esquerda brasileira, ao não realizarem rupturas estruturais no sistema de poder no país, tornaram o reformismo social e econômico uma forma conservadora de busca do poder, articulando o arrefecimento das tensões entre as classes? Concluímos que o reformismo proposto é um mecanismo de não abandono completo das propostas de busca por justiça social, no entanto, é a renúncia de qualquer possibilidade de mudanças estruturais, seja nos valores, na ordem ou na própria estrutura de dominação.

Assim, após a análise dos estudos foi possí­vel concluir que para decidir qual a melhor forma de liderar no centro cirúrgico,é necessário avaliar a maturidade e as necessidades dos liderados. Observou-se que é extremamente necessário que o lí­der seja qualificado para que possa atuar de forma eficaz junto aos liderados, sendo, porém, necessário que novos estudos sejam realizados para delimitar qual o estilo mais adequado independente da maturidade, ou o mais adequado para cada ní­vel deste.

Objetiva-se analisar a interface entre as necessidades de saúde dos usuários e as práticas de cuidado realizadas na APS. Revisão de escopo nas bases de dados: BVS, PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Science Direct, OASISbr e RCAAP, utilizando os descritores: Necessidades e demandas de serviços de saúde; Diagnóstico; Planejamento em saúde e Atenção Primária a Saúde. Encontrou-se 112 artigos e após a aplicação dos critérios de inclusão e exclusão e leitura analí­tica, foram incluí­dos 16 estudos. A análise gerou quatro categorias. Evidenciou-se que as práticas de cuidado não estão centradas nas necessidades de saúde dos usuários e sim nos agravos, fortalecendo o modelo biomédico de assistência. Percebeu-se que há uma frágil conexão entre as necessidades de saúde dos usuários e as práticas de cuidado realizadas no contexto da APS. Observa-se um lento avanço em relação ao trabalho com a comunidade na perspectiva de uma integração.

Objetiva-se analisar os fatores de riscos psicossociais por meio de estudos disponí­veis na literatura nacional que se relacionam com a gestante adolescente. Trata-se de um estudo bibliográfico, descritivo, tipo revisão integrativa, realizada a partir da BVS, e das bases de dados BDENF, LILACS e MEDLINE, em artigos publicados entre aos anos de 2012 a 2017. Analisaram-se oito artigos. Mostrou-se, pelos estudos, que os fatores de risco psicossociais mais predominantes são o abandono do  companheiro, a evasão escolar, a escassez de recursos financeiros e o abandono familiar. Correlacionaram-se os fatores psicossociais entre uns e outros e faz-se necessária a criação de mais polí­ticas públicas, incluindo as Polí­ticas Públicas de Saúde que fomente mais discussões sobre a temática em adolescentes grávidas e, que visem diminuir os agravos psicossociais que acometem esse público. Pode-se contribuir neste contexto, a atuação de profissionais qualificados, em especial, no âmbito da Estratégia de Saúde da Famí­lia, para a diminuição de agravos ocasionados pela gestação na adolescência.

A pesquisa teve como objetivo caracterizar o perfil epidemiológico da sí­filis em gestante e da sí­filis congênita notificadasem um municí­pio do noroeste paulista no perí­odo de 2015 a 2017. É um estudo transversal, quantitativo, exploratório e descritivoa partir do levantamento de dados realizado no banco de dados do Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação do Serviço de Vigilância Epidemiológica do municí­pio. A amostra foi composta por 32 gestantes diagnosticadas com sí­filis com idade entre 18 e 45 anos, 06 recém-nascidos diagnosticados com sí­filis congênita. O perfil sociodemográfico das gestantes neste estudo indica que a sí­filis está ocorrendo em mulheres jovens, com nenhum e algum grau de escolaridade. Observou-se que a incidência de sí­filis congênita (5,36/1.000) no municí­pio no perí­odo estudado é quase seis vezes superior í  meta de eliminação da doença proposta pelo Ministério da Saúde. Apesar da alta incidência não houve nenhum caso fatal da doença.

O objetivo desse estudo foi conhecer os facilidades e limitações dos enfermeiros para desenvolver o raciocí­nio clí­nico. Estudo quantitativo, descritivo, de corte transversal, que procurou averiguar as "facilidades e limitações dos enfermeiros no processo do raciocí­nio clí­nico" de 163 enfermeiros dos sete hospitais do Municí­pio de Dourados/MS, no primeiro semestre de 2016, sendo 79,8% são do sexo feminino, 65,4% são especialistas e 85,9% são do regime de Consolidação das Leis trabalhistas. Os participantes apontaram "educação permanente" (62%) como o principal facilitador e "pouco tempo para estudar" (45,39%) como a maior  limitação para desenvolverem o raciocí­nio clí­nico. Conclui-se ser preciso criar estratégias na rede hospitalar que possibilitem aos enfermeiros se atualizarem dentro da própria instituição que trabalha e averiguar os fatores que contribuem para essa falta de tempo que o grande grupo optou como processo que limita o raciocí­nio clí­nico.

Published: June 2020

Objetiva-se analisar a singularidade do atendimento das enfermeiras í s gestantes. Estudo descritivo, com abordagem qualitativa. O estudo foi realizado em quatro Unidades Saúde da Famí­lia na cidade de Piracicaba, no ano de 2018. Foram entrevistadas uma enfermeira e duas gestantes de cada unidade. Os relatos foram analisados pelo método Discurso do Sujeito Coletivo. Os resultados mostram que todas as enfermeiras entrevistadas acreditam que há singularidade no atendimento í s gestantes, mas ainda percebe um atendimento mecanizado – seguindo um roteiro de consulta, e pouco se questiona sobre os desejos, medos e ansiedades dessa nova fase de vida da mulher. Espera-se contribuir para o desenvolvimento de um atendimento de qualidade, oferecendo uma assistência singular e compreendendo o que as gestantes pensam em relação ao pré-natal, com o desenvolvimento do acolhimento e formação do ví­nculo, o que faz a diferença na atuação a saúde e não generalizando o atendimento.
