New Wave of COVID-19 Vaccine Opinions in the Month the 3rd Booster Dose Arrived
Authors: Delcea Camelia , Cotfas Liviu-Adrian , Crăciun Liliana , Molănescu Anca Gabriela
Published: June 2022

Vaccination has been proposed as one of the most effective methods to combat the COVID-19 pandemic. Since the day the first vaccine, with an efficiency of more than 90%, was announced, the entire vaccination process and its possible consequences in large populations have generated a series of discussions on social media. Whereas the opinions triggered by the administration of the initial COVID-19 vaccine doses have been discussed in depth in the scientific literature, the approval of the so-called 3rd booster dose has only been analyzed in country-specific studies, primarily using questionnaires. In this context, the present paper conducts a stance analysis using a transformer-based deep learning model on a dataset containing 3,841,594 tweets in English collected between 12 July 2021 and 11 August 2021 (the month in which the 3rd dose arrived) and compares the opinions (in favor, neutral and against) with the ones extracted at the beginning of the vaccination process. In terms of COVID-19 vaccination hesitance, an analysis based on hashtags, n-grams and latent Dirichlet allocation is performed that highlights the main reasons behind the reluctance to vaccinate. The proposed approach can be useful in the context of the campaigns related to COVID-19 vaccination as it provides insights related to the public opinion and can be useful in creating communication messages to support the vaccination campaign.

Healthcare workers (HCWs) are reluctant to participate in the influenza vaccination program, despite their high risk to contract and diffuse influenza due to professional exposure. The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic could raise HCW flu vaccination adherence. The aim of this study was to assess HCW attitudes toward influenza vaccination in the COVID-19 era. A multicenter observational study was carried out in three Italian hospitals (two in Pesaro and one in Fano, Marche region, Italy). Data about HCW influenza vaccination between 2013 and 2021 were extracted from the vaccination registers. An online questionnaire was sent to HCWs from July to October 2020 to assess their opinion about influenza vaccination in terms of knowledge, attitude, and practice during the COVID-19 pandemic. The number of flu-vaccinated HCWs increased from 3.7% in the 2013–2014 flu season to 53.6% in the 2020–2021 flu season (p < 0.001). About 15% (n = 324) of HCWs responded to the online questionnaire, and 30.5% of them declared that they had changed their minds on flu vaccination after the COVID-19 pandemic, deciding to get vaccinated. The COVID-19 pandemic significantly increased HCWs’ attitudes toward flu vaccination. However, flu vaccination adherence remained low and should be improved.

Published: June 2022

Enterobacter cloacae (EC) is a significant emerging pathogen that is occasionally associated with lung infection, surgical site infection, urinary infection, sepsis, and outbreaks in neonatal intensive care units. In light of the fact that there is currently no approved vaccine or therapeutic option for the treatment of EC, the current study was developed to concentrate on applications based on modern computational approaches to design a multi-epitope-based E. cloacae peptide vaccine (MEBEPV) expressing the antigenic determinants prioritized from the EC genome. Integrated computational analyses identified two potential protein targets (phosphoporin protein-PhoE and putative outer-membrane porin protein) for further exploration on the basis of pangenome subtractive proteomics and immunoinformatic in-depth examination of the core proteomes. Then, a multi-epitope peptide vaccine was designed, which comprised shortlisted epitopes that were capable of eliciting both innate and adaptive immunity, as well as the cholera toxin’s B-subunit, which was used as an adjuvant in the vaccine formulation. To ensure maximum expression, the vaccine’s 3D structure was developed and the loop was refined, improving the stability by disulfide engineering, and the physicochemical characteristics of the recombinant vaccine sequence were found to be ideal for both in vitro and in vivo experimentation. Blind docking was then used for the prediction of the MEBEPV predominant blinding mode with MHCI, MHCII, and TLR3 innate immune receptors, with lowest global energy of −18.64 kJ/mol, −48.25 kJ/mol, and −5.20 kJ/mol for MHC-I, MHC-II, and TLR-4, respectively, with docked complexes considered for simulation. In MD and MMGBSA investigations, the docked models of MEBEPV-TLR3, MEBEPV-MHCI, and MEBEPV-MHCII were found to be stable during the course of the simulation. MM-GBSA analysis calculated −122.17 total net binding free energies for the TLR3-vaccine complex, −125.4 for the MHC I-vaccine complex, and −187.94 for the MHC II-vaccine complex. Next, MM-PBSA analysis calculated −115.63 binding free energy for the TLR3-vaccine complex, −118.19 for the MHC I-vaccine complex, and −184.61 for the MHC II-vaccine complex. When the vaccine was tested in silico, researchers discovered that it was capable of inducing both types of immune responses (cell mediated and humoral) at the same time. Even though the suggested MEBEPV has the potential to be a powerful contender against E. cloacae-associated illnesses, further testing in the laboratory will be required before it can be declared safe and immunogenic.

The objective of this study was to assess inactivated influenza vaccine effectiveness (VE) by time since vaccination in adults aged ≥ 18 years using a test-negative design. All data were obtained from the US Department of Defense Global Respiratory Pathogen Surveillance Program over four influenza seasons, from 2016–2017 through 2019–2020. Analyses were performed to estimate VE using a generalized linear mixed model with logit link and binomial distribution. The adjusted overall VE against any medically attended, laboratory-confirmed influenza decreased from 50% (95% confidence interval (CI): 41–58%) in adults vaccinated 14 to 74 days prior to the onset of influenza-like illness (ILI), to 39% (95% CI: 31–47%) in adults vaccinated 75 to 134 days prior to the onset of ILI, then to 17% (95% CI: 0–32%) in adults vaccinated 135 to 194 days prior to the onset of ILI. The pattern and magnitude of VE change with increasing time since vaccination differed by influenza (sub)types. Compared to VE against influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 and influenza B, the decrease of VE against influenza A(H3N2) was more pronounced with increasing time since vaccination. In conclusion, based on the analysis of 2536 influenza-positive cases identified from 7058 adults over multiple influenza seasons, the effectiveness of inactivated influenza vaccine wanes within 180 days after 14 days of influenza vaccination.

Published: June 2022

Mercury (Hg) is a kind of heavy metal pollutant widely existing in the aquatic environment, and it is also recognized to have a highly toxic effect on fish. In this study, silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) larvae were exposed to 0 (control), 1, 5, and 10 μg/L Hg2+ for 2 weeks. Antioxidant ability, neurotoxicity, and thyroid hormones (THs) content were evaluated. In comparison with the control, the superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and the glutathione (GSH) activity were lower in silver carp exposed to 10 μg/L Hg2+. The lowest catalase (CAT) activity was found in the 10 μg/L Hg2+, while malondialdehyde (MDA) content was not significantly different among all groups. Compared with the control, monoamine oxidase (MAO) activity and nitric oxide (NO) content were significantly higher in the 10 μg/L Hg2+, while acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity significantly decreased. Compared with the control, triiodothyronine (T3) content was significantly higher in the 1 μg/L Hg2+ and significantly lower in the 10 μg/L Hg2+; the 1 μg/L and 5 μg/L Hg2+ groups had significantly higher thyroxine (T4) content than the other groups. In the 1 μg/L Hg2+, the integrated biomarker response (IBR) index value was the highest. In summary, exposure to Hg could decrease the antioxidant ability, cause changes in neurotoxic parameters, and induce disorders of the thyroid hormone system in silver carp larvae. The results of this study may contribute to the understanding of the adverse effects of chronic mercury poisoning on fish.
Evaluation of Pandanus Trees as a Means of Eco-DRR against Storm Surge Wave on Saint Martin’s Island, Bangladesh
Authors: Kayum Shakila , Shimatani Yukihiro , Minagawa Tomoko
Published: June 2022

Saint Martin’s Island is a tiny island located in Bangladesh that is rich in biodiversity but threatened by many natural disasters, and it is often neglected due to being far from the mainland. Ecosystem-based disaster risk reduction (Eco-DRR) is the most urgently required provision for Bangladesh as it is a very easy and inexpensive way to survive natural adversities. In this study, attempts were made to quantify the capacity of an existing Pandanus forest on Saint Martin’s Island to reduce the storm surge disaster risk. For this, satellite images were processed with ErdasImagine and ArcGIS software, and land use and land cover changes were analyzed to determine the changes related to Pandanus trees over time. Storm surge wave height reduction was analyzed using the Bao regression model equation. The results show that the Pandanus tree population increased almost 3-fold from 2010 to 2021, and that the Pandanus trees can reduce the surge height, which will ultimately preserve 75% of the area of the island (2021). The minimum required patch width for the Pandanus tree belt was identified as 4.53 m. The areas highly vulnerable to flooding were also identified in this study.

Published: June 2022

Lanthanum-modified bentonite (LMB) has remarkable efficacy on eutrophication control, but the reduced bioavailable phosphorus and formed anaerobic horizon from LMB may be harmful to submerged macrophytes. We conducted this study to explore the influence of LMB on Hydrilla verticillata and Vallisneria natans in mixed-species plantings. The concentrations of TP, TDP, SRP, and TDN in the LMB treatments were lower than the Control, but the Chl a concentration in the HLMB treatment (850 g m−2) was higher than the Control by 63%. There were no differences of V. natans growth among the treatments. For H. verticillata, its biomass, RGR, height, branch number, root number, and length in the LLMB treatment (425 g m−2) were lower than the Control by 48%, 22%, 13%, 34%, 33%, and 8%, respectively. In addition, the biomass of H. verticillata was 62%, the RGR was 32%, the height was 19%, the branch number was 52%, the root length was 40%, and the root number was 54% lower in the HLMB treatment than those in the Control. In summary, LMB had negative effects on submerged macrophytes with underdeveloped roots. Submerged macrophytes with more developed roots are preferred when using combined biological–chemical methods for water restoration.

The article presents a system for assessing the degree of potential risk of infection of contact ones in the tuberculosis focus with a source of infection suffering from HIV infection, based on methods of cluster analysis of risk factors, including hierarchical clustering and k-medium methods. Of the 20 factors characterizing the source of the combined pathology infection (HIV infection and TB), the most significant were taken for hierarchical cluster analysis. They included 6 factors: social, groups of epidemiological burden of foci, clinical, comorbidities, laboratory, sex. The use of the assessment system allows, on the basis of the factors selected for the analysis, to determine the tactics of epidemiological surveillance of the tuberculosis focus, to justify the transfer of the focus to a higher group of epidemic danger and to optimize measures for epidemiological control of the disease.

The article discusses the results of research carried out within the framework of the industry program of Rospotrebnadzor “Hygienic scientific justification for minimizing risks to the health of the population of Russia” for 2016–2020 (p. 2. 16). During the development of oil and gas fields of the shelf in the waters of the Northern, etc. In addition to climatic conditions, dangerous and harmful factors of the production environment have a significant impact on working conditions: intense industrial noise, general and local vibration, insufficient lighting, contamination of the working area with dangerous chemicals and gases. Often, oil and gas in wells are under high pressure, which creates a threat of explosive emissions and fires. Among the unfavorable factors, the leading place is also occupied by noise, which affects workers during the entire shift from 7 to 30 or more days continuously. The noise sources are power plants and working mechanisms. Sound pressure levels in workplaces reach 72–107 dBA, in cabins 52–67 dBA. The equivalent daily sound levels are 71–102 dBA, and the total doses of acoustic energy affecting personnel exceed the permissible requirements by tens of times. In order to ensure the implementation of industrial and environmental control during the development of oil and gas fields on the offshore shelf, the main parameters, sources and mechanisms of marine water pollution have been determined. The sanitary and hygienic characteristics of the quality of sea water, ways and mechanisms of monitoring the state of sea waters are given. The analysis and updating of a number of existing regulatory and methodological documents in the field of ensuring the sanitary and epidemiological well-being of the population and the safety of environmental objects, including the draft SanPiN 2.2.3... “Sanitary rules and regulations for drilling rigs and structures used in the development of offshore hydrocarbon deposits” has been prepared.

Due to the peculiarities of their immune status, pregnant women, like the elderly, are at risk for the severe course of the novel coronavirus infection COVID-19. Immunosuppression and other physiological changes during pregnancy contribute to a high susceptibility to respiratory pathogens and can cause severe pneumonia at different gestational ages, which can lead to intensive care hospitalization and the need for artificial lung ventilation. The initial timing of the gestational period is fundamental in the development of the fetal organs, and the immune system is especially sensitive at this stage, which significantly affects the course of the infectious process. The clinical manifestations of the course of the disease identified in pregnant women with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection are similar in principle to those in non-pregnant women with COVID-19 pneumonia. Laboratory tests usually show a decrease in the level of leukocytes and lymphocytes, mild thrombocytopenia, and an increase in liver function test indicators. A general practitioner who provides dynamic monitoring of pregnant women at the site needs to be alert in terms of a possible severe course of the new coronavirus infection during pregnancy and take maximum measures to limit possible contacts of a pregnant woman in order to prevent her infection

Published: June 2022

Gauze tamponade of the nasal cavity is one of the most common and affordable ways to stop nosebleeds. To prevent local fibrinolysis, polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) powder, which has the properties of a local sorbent, was used. The study involved 2 groups of patients: group 1 included 38 patients who underwent tamponade of the nasal cavity after surgery, group 2 included 52 p patients with spontaneous epistaxis on the background of arterial hypertension. PVP was applied to tampons and also insufflated into the nasal cavity after their removal. The degree of nasal mucosa damage was estimated by the change in mucociliary transport, determined by the saccharin test. There was a decrease in the severity of reactive edema after tamponade and in the frequency of recurrent epistaxis. These effects are explained by the modifying effect of PVP on fibrin thrombus and an increase in the aggregation properties of erythrocytes.

Authors: Xue Jing , Zhang Yongan , Su He , Wu Pei
Published: June 2022

A new type of coupled muffler for diesel engine was proposed based on the principle of split-stream rushing and multi-unit coupling theory, and a coupling study of noise attenuation performance was carried out. The one-dimensional transfer matrix method was used to establish a transfer
matrix mathematical model of the new muffler. The relative importance of the impact on the transmission loss for the coupled muffler was then able to be ranked by experimental design and MATLAB software calculation. From this, the combination of parameters with the optimal transmission loss
was obtained. The transmission loss tests without airflow and the insertion loss tests with airflow between the optimal model of the coupled muffler and the original muffler supplied with the engine were verified respectively. The tests of pressure loss between the coupled muffler and the
original muffler were also completed. The results show that the transmission losses of the coupled muffler in 0–2000 Hz and 0–200 Hz without airflow were 6 dB and 8 dB higher than that of the original muffler, the insertion losses of the coupled muffler in 0–2000 Hz and 0–200
Hz with airflow are 6 dB and 7 dB higher than that of the original muffler, and the noise peaks in the source spectrum are well controlled by the coupled muffler. The pressure losses of the coupled muffler are lower than that of the original muffler, which verifies that the coupling structure
could reduce the airflow velocity in the muffler to improve noise attenuation performance and aerodynamic performance of the muffler at the same time.
Case study: Effect of asymmetry of vibration on the perceived illusion force
Authors: Asakura T. , Hirasawa H.
Published: June 2022

The illusion force perceived by exciting asymmetric vibration has been studied, and the kinesthetic effect is recently clarified to be largely influenced by the asymmetry of the excited vibration waveforms. However, it has not yet been investigated how the extent of asymmetry influenced
the perception of the illusion force. In this study, the effect of the asymmetry of the input vibration waveform on the extent of induced traction force was experimentally investigated by changing the extent of asymmetry that is controlled by the summation order of Fourier series expansion
of the original waveform. As a result, it was confirmed that the extent of induced traction form increases as the extent of asymmetry of the actuated sawtooth waveform increases up to the summation order of 3; however, the induced traction form does not increase in case of n of over 4.

Published: June 2022

Os processos digitais aportaram grande precisão e controle aos projetos e à sua execução, mas, ao mesmo tempo trouxeram um enfoque técnico e construtivo às ferramentas de projeto, promovendo um distanciamento das interfaces projetuais das características mais intuitivas, imprecisas e conceituais das fases iniciais do projeto. Deste modo, as qualidades existentes nos métodos tradicionais de projeto não foram devidamente transpostas às novas plataformas digitais e os arquitetos percebem atualmente um grande vazio instrumental no suporte às etapas criativas e de concepção em arquitetura. Diante deste quadro buscamos propor e avaliar uma plataforma de projeto em realidade virtual, capaz de suprir este vazio e, ao mesmo tempo, se integrar aos processos digitais existentes.

Published: June 2022

O presente trabalho analisa resultados experimentais de ruptura por força cortante em lajes treliçadas e em lajes sem armadura transversal e compara-os visando melhor entender a contribuição da treliça na resistência à força cortante. Através da análise teórica, com base na NBR 6118:2014, obteve-se a força cortante estimada de ruptura e a força cortante resistente de cálculo para cada protótipo. Esses resultados foram comparados com os resultados obtidos nos ensaios experimentais. Diante disso, com base nos ensaios e nos cálculos realizados, pôde-se concluir que, para o caso estudado, o método de cálculo utilizado pela normalização brasileira subestima a capacidade resistente ao esforço cortante em lajes sem armadura transversal. Além disso, apesar do uso das treliças resultarem em pouca diferença na resistência à força cortante, as mesmas contribuíram significativamente para a ductilidade das lajes.

A avaliação e a priorização da execução de projetos já iniciados são geralmente feitas utilizando dados técnicos com relação à disponibilidade de recursos e prazo de entrega. No entanto, neste artigo, é proposta uma nova abordagem para auxiliar o tomador de decisão em comparar a criticidade de projetos de fabricação de tubulação industriais, onde diversos fatores de engenharia, qualidade, supply chain (cadeia de suprimentos) e requisitos contratuais devem ser considerados para realizar uma priorização efetiva da execução dos projetos. A estrutura do problema de seleção de projetos e os pesos dos critérios adotados são avaliados através do método AHP e o ranking final de projetos é obtido através do método TOPSIS. O conhecimento da ordem de criticidade dos projetos destaca-se em situações em que há recursos limitados ou com baixa disponibilidade, onde a correta tomada de decisão é fundamental para que os projetos sejam executados da forma mais eficiente possível.

A população não branca é mais exposta a agravos, além de possuir maior chance de sofrer violência obstétrica. O estudo tem como objetivo comparar as boas práticas prestadas à mulher no trabalho de parto relacionado à variável raça/cor em uma Casa de Parto. Se trata de um estudo transversal, analítico. Teve como população analisada puérperas com partos normais entre 2004 e 2013, na Casa de Parto. Para coleta de dados, os registros dos prontuários foram sistematizados por meio de formulário eletrônico. Realizada análise bivariada e por modelos de regressão logística multivariada para calcular as razões de chance e intervalo de confiança de 95%. Como resultados, as mulheres não brancas tiveram maior chance de receberem boas práticas como aromas, música e banho. Ademais, apresentaram menor chance de lesão perineal e parirem em posição litotômica. Os resultados neonatais evidenciaram mais chance de asfixia e aspiração de vias aéreas. Não houve distinção do cuidado relacionado à variável raça/cor. O parto assistido pela enfermagem obstétrica na Casa de Parto diminui as chances de intervenções desnecessárias.

As condições de saúde bucal são elementos importantes e indissociáveis na manutenção da saúde geral e qualidade de vida dos indivíduos. A Organização Mundial de Saúde (OMS) preconiza que a promoção à saúde bucal também seja realizada nas escolas, com o intuito de melhorar o conhecimento, o comportamento e as atitudes dos alunos e professores da rede de ensino, de forma a prevenir e controlar as doenças bucais nos escolares. Este estudo tem como objetivo, identificar a importância do meio escolar no conhecimento e educação em saúde bucal de escolares. Trata-se de uma revisão de literatura, realizada nas bases de dados Pubmed, Lilacs, MEDLINE e SciELO. Os professores e alunos do magistério devem ser incluídos nos programas de educação em saúde, visto que desempenham um papel primordial na promoção à saúde, atuando como multiplicadores de conhecimentos, tanto em seu ambiente de trabalho quanto na comunidade em geral, motivando a população para o autocuidado em saúde bucal.

Dentro do cenário de Saúde Pública decorrente da Pandemia de COVID-19 que acometeu o mundo em 2019/2020, o funcionamento normal da sociedade foi alterado, impelindo todos os profissionais a mudar suas práticas. Deste modo, surgiu a dúvida sobre como cada profissional conseguiu se adequar à presente situação de Saúde Pública, nos levando ao seguinte problema: Como os profissionais do município estão realizando as avaliações neuropsicológicas durante a pandemia de coronavírus? A hipótese levantada é a de que alguns profissionais possam realizar a avaliação na modalidade híbrida, com alguns procedimentos como entrevistas e testagens formuladas para a modalidade online realizados de forma remota, e aplicando presencialmente os testes construídos para aplicação presencial. Com este trabalho, pretende-se dar respaldo a outros profissionais da área que estejam em dificuldade para adaptação de suas atividades, bem como apresentar possibilidades de atuação que surgiram em meio à crise que possuam o potencial de aprimoramento das práticas atuais. O trabalho deu-se por meio de revisão bibliográfica e entrevistas enviadas por protocolo online, através da metodologia bola de neve. Como resultados, percebemos que todos os profissionais entrevistados precisaram adaptar as suas práticas para a modalidade remota, mesmo quando tinham dificuldade em aceitar a modalidade ou quando decidiram não continuar suas avaliações. Concluímos então que a situação de adversidade levou os profissionais a ressignificar suas práticas e reavaliar as concepções que tinham sobre o processo de avaliação e às práticas mediadas por tecnologia.

O artigo apresenta os resultados obtidos na elaboração do desenho de cenários estratégicos em marketing ecológico, em áreas de influência da UCC, do ponto de vista da prospectiva e da análise de redes sociais, uma vez que cuja premissa fundamental é que o futuro não surge às cegas, mas é uma consequência da ação humana, tornando-se uma ferramenta de planejamento essencial onde o futuro pode ser elucidado e as ações humanas que permitirão seu desenvolvimento podem ser orientadas. Assim foi desenvolvido para olhar a ação presente a partir da criação de cenários possíveis (cenários futuros) utilizando análise morfológica e a probabilidade de que cada cenário ocorra (cenários futuros) apoiados pelo método Delphi, MIC MAC. Este documento contribuirá com conhecimento para que os gestores do ecoturismo contribuam com as necessidades econômicas e sociais do país como parte de sua gestão socioecológica por meio dos resultados do setor de ecoturismo nas áreas de influência da UCC, que estão em grande parte território.

As ligas com memória de forma apresentam a capacidade de agir como atuadores e, assim, substituir servomecanismos em um robô cobra, promovendo aumento do desempenho, redução de peso e geometria do robô. Em virtude disso, foram estudadas as ligas comercialmente disponíveis, seus diferentes formatos e como os robôs são capazes de se locomover. Ademais, fabricantes foram consultados para avaliar a diferença no uso de fios, fitas e molas e qual o material a ser adquirido para a liga. Com base nas propriedades mecânicas e elétricas que cada formato possui e na versatilidade do material, escolheu-se utilizar molas compostas de NiTi. Em seguida, por meio de ensaios mecânicos, foi avaliado o comportamento da liga quando aplicada uma corrente elétrica - meio de acionamento da mudança de forma. Com os testes realizados, pode-se concluir que as correntes baixas tornaram o acionamento mais lento e apresentaram um comportamento inesperado.

A pandemia exigiu uma readaptação no estilo de vida dos adolescentes, que, em sua maioria, possuem longos períodos de convivência em grupos. O objetivo do trabalho foi relatar a experiência vivenciada por estudantes e profissionais envolvidos em um curso Técnico de Enfermagem sobre práticas educativas para adolescentes durante a pandemia da COVID-19. Tratou-se de um relato de experiência de quatro estudantes, três docentes e um enfermeiro de um Instituto Federal sobre a elaboração de estratégias de educação em saúde para adolescentes em tempos de pandemia da COVID-19, nos meses de março à junho de 2021, usando mídias digitais como material educacional. Observou-se que práticas de educação em saúde realizadas por estudantes de enfermagem estimularam o aprimoramento de seus conhecimentos, aproximando os futuros profissionais de sua realidade de trabalho e ao mesmo tempo contribuíram para a prevenção de agravos à saúde do adolescente. Concluiu-se que o trabalho possibilitou aos estudantes e profissionais envolvidos maior interação, trabalho em equipe, desenvolvimento e aprendizagem de novas ferramentas tecnológicas, trazendo benefícios para a sociedade.

A discussão sobre os impactos socioambientais a partir do consumo inconsciente tem se destacado, principalmente devido à geração de resíduos sólidos, esses que impactam negativamente ao meio ambiente quando sua destinação é realizada de forma irregular. Mas, também há pessoas que sobrevivem do recolhimento, triagem e comercialização dos resíduos sólidos como os catadores de materiais recicláveis, esses que muitas vezes tem se organizado em organizações baseada na filosofia da Economia Solidária superando vários desafios para sustentabilidade das suas atividades. O presente artigo teve como objetivo analisar o potencial socioeconômico da cadeia produtiva da reciclagem do município de Nova Era, em Minas Gerais, tendo como base as experiências da ACNE, uma associação de catadores de materiais recicláveis composta por 16 associados. As atividades do trabalho basearam-se na pesquisa exploratória de abordagem quali-quantitativa, pesquisa de campo, videoconferências, análise de documentos, dentre outros. Dentre os resultados destaca-se a presença predominante de raça negra e parda, mulheres, idades acima dos 40 anos, conflitos internos e externos, parcerias, potencialidades e limitantes para o desenvolvimento da gestão socioambiental. A partir dos resultados obtidos, conclui-se que a associação apresenta potencialidades econômicas e sociais que devem ser melhor exploradas, principalmente no que tange as relações existentes junto ao poder público de forma a promover práticas de gestão socioambiental mais eficientes, além da promoção e consolidação do desenvolvimento sustentável local.
