Deutsch, Italienisch und Ladinisch im Vergleich. Eine facettenreiche morphologische und syntaktische Variation
Authors: Siller-Runggaldier Heidi
Published: April 2024

After the introduction, the languages German, Italian and the two variants of Ladin, from Gardena and Val Badia, are compared morphologically and syntactically. This enables to identify both similarities and differences between the four languages. However, the similarities as well as the differences are by no means evenly distributed. Precisely this fact increases the richness of interesting grammatical divergences between the languages. This also applies to the two Ladin languages, especially since they have their own characteristics for the same grammatical functions as well.
Mulheres cineastas durante o governo da Unidade Popular (Chile, 1970-1973):
Authors: Tedesco Marina Cavalcanti
Published: April 2024

Alguns filmes produzidos durante o governo da Unidade Popular (UP – 1970-1973) entraram para o cânone não apenas do cinema chileno, mas do cinema latino-americano. Por conseguinte, foram muito estudados ao longo dos anos, enquanto outra parte da filmografia realizada no Chile naquele período teve pouca ou nenhuma visibilidade. São exemplos desse segundo caso as obras cinematográficas dirigidas por mulheres nos primeiros anos da década de 1970, embora, felizmente, algumas dessas cineastas sejam cada vez mais tema de estudos e mostras. Não obstante, mesmo na bibliografia recente, as produções com mulheres na direção feitas nos tempos da UP não foram pensadas de forma conjunta. É esta contribuição às pesquisas sobre o cinema de mulheres na América Latina o objetivo do presente artigo. Após realizarmos um levantamento partindo de diversas fontes, chegamos a um corpus de 15 obras, que foram analisadas a partir dos seguintes aspectos: composição da direção; formato; gênero narrativo; forma de financiamento e estrutura de produção; se tem entrevista; se tem narração; se tem música (se sim, qual seu papel); a partir de que lógicas são construídas as relações entre imagem e som; e lógicas de montagem.
Revisitando o “paganismo” da Inglaterra Anglo-Saxônica:
Authors: Medeiros Elton O. S.
Published: April 2024

Desde os tempos de Émile Durkheim que o problema de analisar formas de manifestações religiosas dentro de culturas específicas tem sido o foco de pesquisadores no campo da História e Antropologia. Antes de Durkheim, nomes como Max Weber, Herbert Spencer, J. G. Frazer e Bronislaw Malinowski já haviam abordado a questão, tentando separar o universo do sagrado e do profano. Este artigo irá abordar, dentro do viés historiográfico, o contexto cultural e religioso da Inglaterra na Alta Idade Média e como o uso da ideia tradicional de “paganismo” é inadequada na atualidade, o que leva a necessidade de um conhecimento mais profundo das fontes e do período da história inglesa. Com o objetivo de compreender o que chamamos de “o universo espiritual da Inglaterra Anglo-Saxônica”. Para tanto, teremos como ponto principal de análise do artigo o artefato conhecido como a Franks Casket e de que forma ele nos auxilia a compreender o universo da cultura e das mentalidades do período.
Olimpo massificado:
Authors: Ankava Matan
Published: April 2024

O presente artigo busca analisar a campanha publicitária “Sócio Olímpico-Cadeiras Cativas”, criada por Osvaldo Moles para o São Paulo Futebol Clube. Realizada entre 1955-1959, tinha por objetivo angariar recursos para a construção do Estádio do Morumbi, sede pretendida do Clube, através da venda de títulos de associados. A análise dos anúncios veiculados na imprensa identificou uma tensão que marcou a divulgação do Título: por um lado, sua divulgação como objeto de distinção social; por outro, uma orientação massificada, presente nas entrelinhas da campanha, e também na precificação do produto. Ao longo do artigo, procuramos investigar as estratégias de publicidade e comercialização do Título Sócio Olímpico, buscando compreender as possibilidades de acomodação e sobreposição que conviviam na formação de bens culturais massificados.
Unterdrückung e verdrängung no final da obra de Freud
Authors: Maireno Daniel Polimeni
Published: April 2024

O presente estudo visa avaliar, a partir da leitura integral de alguns dos escritos tardios da obra freudiana, as relações entre os termos Verdrängung e Unterdrückung. Nesse sentido, ele dá sequência a um percurso investigativo que focalizou o período inicial da obra freudiana, no qual concluiu-se serem frágeis os argumentos favoráveis a uma diferenciação categórica entre os dois termos na obra de Freud – o que poderia impactar no debate em torno das recentes traduções da mesma. (cf. Maireno, 2023) Ao final do presente trabalho, conclui-se que a posição defendida no trabalho anterior permanece válida, apesar de algumas linhas argumentativas – curiosamente pouco exploradas pelos comentadores – serem potencialmente fortes para perturbá-la.

Published: April 2024

Introduction:

Financial toxicity is highly prevalent in patients after an orthopaedic injury. However, little is known regarding the conditions that promote and protect against this financial distress. Our objective was to understand the factors that cause and protect against financial toxicity after a lower extremity fracture.

Methods:

A qualitative study was conducted using semi-structured interviews with 20 patients 3 months after surgical treatment of a lower extremity fracture. The interviews were audio-recorded, transcribed verbatim, and analyzed using thematic analysis to identify themes and subthemes. Data saturation occurred after 15 interviews. The percentage of patients who described the identified themes are reported.

Results:

A total of 20 patients (median age, 44 years [IQR, 38 to 58]; 60% male) participated in the study. The most common injury was a distal tibia fracture (n = 8; 40%). Eleven themes that promoted financial distress were identified, the most common being work effects (n = 14; 70%) and emotional health (n = 12; 60%). Over half (n = 11; 55%) of participants described financial toxicity arising from an inability to access social welfare programs. Seven themes that protected against financial distress were also identified, including insurance (n = 17; 85%) and support from friends and family (n = 17; 85%). Over half (n = 13; 65%) of the participants discussed the support they received from their healthcare team, which encompassed expectation setting and connections to financial aid and other services. Employment protection and workplace flexibility were additional protective themes.

Conclusion:

This qualitative study of orthopaedic trauma patients found work and emotional health–related factors to be primary drivers of financial toxicity after injury. Insurance and support from friends and family were the most frequently reported protective factors. Many participants described the pivotal role of the healthcare team in establishing recovery expectations and facilitating access to social welfare programs.

Делается вывод о значительной разнице величин параметров активности овариального локуса миометрия по сравнению с близкими друг к другу показателями характеристик активности двух других ритмогенных областей. Spontaneous bursts of action potential occurring in the ovarian and cervical horn areas as well as in uterine corpus were investigated in non-pregnant rats. The main characteristics of spikes registered simultaneously from the selected active regions under normal conditions – the frequency, amplitude, rise-rate, rise-time and half-width of peaks, were analyzed by electrophysiological studies. It is concluded that there is a significant difference between the values of activity parameters in the ovarian horn area and two other pacemaker areas localized rather close to each other.

Assessment of prevalence of hyperprolactinemia in patients taking antipsychotic drugs in a tertiary care hospital in eastern India
Authors: Sarkar Suhena , Biswas Birupaksha , Roy Soutrik , Sanyamath Agnidipa , Biswas Soumika , Nandy Manab
Published: April 2024

Background: Researches done over different parts of the world show that hyperprolactinemia in psychotic patients is dependent on many factors such as age, gender, any thyroidal abnormality, drugs such as antipsychotics or antidepressants, psychological stress, and genre of psychosis. In patients taking antipsychotic treatments, prolactin blood levels may rise up to 10 times the normal values. It is very important to differentiate between prolactin-secreting tumor in pituitary and antipsychotic-induced hyperprolactinemia. There has been fewer researches on this topic in Eastern India, so it aims to properly estimate the amount of prolactin rise; a patient has to face after taking anti-psychotic medications and might also help the psychiatrists to adjust the dosage of anti-psychotics or to add some other drugs to lower the prolactin level along with the anti-psychotics in Eastern India.

Aim and Objectives: The aims and objectives of the study are to estimate serum prolactin in diagnosed psychiatric patients taking antipsychotic drugs for at least 3 months and to study the difference in serum prolactin between recently diagnosed psychiatric patients taking antipsychotic drugs for at least 3 months and age and gender-matched mentally healthy patients without any psychiatric complication and without any history of in taking antipsychotic drugs.

Materials and Methods: The study was conducted over a period of 4 months at Central Laboratory, Dept of Biochemistry, MCK. Before the conduct of the study, informed consent was taken. Patients diagnosed with psychiatric illness and consuming at least one antipsychotic drug for at least 3 months were enrolled after going through inclusion–exclusion criteria. Serum prolactin was measured with help of CLIA (ADVIA CENTAUR).

Results: As per our study done in Eastern Indian population, in the female group of psychiatric patients (aged between 18 and 45 years) taking antipsychotics, the prolactin level was 23.6 ± 4.5 ng/ml, and in age-matched control female group, prolactin level was 9.2 ± 3.1 ng/mL, the difference is statistically significant (P < 0.001). Moreover, in male psychiatric patients (aged between 18 and 45 years) taking antipsychotics, the prolactin level was 14.3 ± 1.7 ng/mL, and in age-matched control male group, prolactin level was 8.5 ± 1.5 ng/mL, the difference is statistically significant (P < 0.001).

Conclusion: As per our study, psychiatric patients of both gender taking antipsychotic drugs had higher serum prolactin level than age and gender-matched mentally healthy persons not taking antipsychotic drugs. Though the limitation of this study was small sample size and another issue that must be taken into consideration is the fact that prolactin levels can also be dependent of menstrual cycles in women, and in our study, there were 40 (57%) females who were still menstruating.

Authors: Bashir Amir , Jarelnape Ahmed , Mohammed Khalid , Elghazaly Elghazaly
Published: April 2024

Objective: To investigate the effect of vitamin C supplementation in decreasing asthma severity, medications, and improving pulmonary function tests (PFTs).
Methodology: Search of electronic databases was conducted to identify relevant studies published from January 2010 up to November 2023. A total of 105 records were initially identified. After filtering and screening, just 9 studies met the inclusion criteria; 3 were reviews, while the remaining 6 were original. Of the original studies, one was experimental, performed on 24 male Balb/c mice while the remaining 5 were performed on 969 asthmatic patients. Except for the experimental study, the selected studies were performed in different settings and on different ethnicities at the age of seven years and over.
Results: The results showed antioxidant effects of vitamin C in asthmatic patients and experimental models. The studies showed that vitamin-C supplements significantly contributed to the reduction in asthma severity, number of attacks, admission rate, and asthma medications. Also, improvement of PFTs and suppression of asthma phenotype features in asthma mouse models. Only one review showed non-significant improvement in symptoms and PFTs, with significant improvement in malondialdehyde level and superoxide dismutase activity.
Conclusion: Vitamin C supplementation to asthmatic patients showed improvements in asthma symptoms and PFTs, decreases the dose of asthma medications through potentiation of their efficacy, and less reactive response in asthma mouse model.

Resistencias y memorias de maternidades rebeldes y niñeces otras frente a la neocolonización
Authors: Rico Montoya Angélica
Published: April 2024

La participación de familias indígenas en el EZLN como bases de apoyo, han configurado al movimiento por décadas, siendo la presencia de las mujeres, niños y jóvenes zapatistas pieza clave para la resistencia, lucha y reproducción sociocultural de la rebeldía. Desde la década de los 80, mujeres y jóvenes comenzaron a integrarse al movimiento zapatista para enfrentar a la violencia y los procesos de neocolonización en los que sobreviven e interpelan las comunidades indígenas al capital global, pero también instaurando espacios para participar políticamente, rompiendo con los roles de género e intergeneracionales tradicionales. A través de relatos biográficos se hace un acercamiento al pasado reciente zapatista y a la pedagogía de la memoria y la resistencia construida desde la educación/socialización en la vida cotidiana, la cual ha permitido a mujeres, niños/as y jóvenes resignificar su ser madre, niño y joven en medio de la autonomía y frente a un proceso de contrainsurgencia colonizador.

Published: April 2024

O presente artigo busca analisar a participação das crianças no Movimento Sem Terra, de forma a discutir sua condição de ator político, a partir da discussão de três eventos voltados para a organização e formação política das crianças Sem Terrinha. Tem-se em vista apreender a singularidade das ações políticas infantis, suas linguagens, entendendo que tais ações ocorrem no interior de relações intergeracionais de poder entre adultos e crianças do movimento social. Verificou-se que as crianças, ao longo do processo de ação e formação política, demandam do movimento social a construção de experiências formativas identificadas com suas linguagens, bem como sua participação na coordenação e nos processos decisórios do movimento social.
A cidadania prometida
Authors: Rizzini Irene
Published: April 2024

Neste artigo, parto da expressão de menor a cidadão, muito utilizada na década de 1980 para marcar mudanças de paradigmas em curso referentes à infância pobre, percebida como abandonada e/ou delinquente. Implícita nessa expressão está a noção de uma cidadania prometida a crianças e adolescentes, expressa nas normativas adotadas no Brasil à época, a partir da qual passaram a ser considerados sujeitos de direitos. Para empreender esta análise, utilizei marcos conceituais e teóricos no campo das ideias, das políticas e das práticas, relacionados às trajetórias de vida da população infantil e juvenil em conexão com a rua. A análise demonstrou que muito se avançou no campo dos direitos, porém a cidadania enunciada não se efetivou.
La construcción de perspectivas de futuro de infantes y adolescentes en contextos de pobreza y desigualdad
Authors: Martínez Olga Grijalva
Published: April 2024

En este trabajo planteo que la construcción de las perspectivas de futuro de niños, niñas y adolescentes más empobrecidos en México está condicionada por las desigualdades económicas, socioculturales y políticas, que los gobiernos en México no han podido solucionar. Esta situación se debe en gran parte a un Estado fallido: por décadas el Estado mexicano ha sido incapaz de proveer los servicios básicos a la población de educación, salud y alimentación. Sobre las infancias y adolescencias se ciernen diversas formas de exclusión en los sistemas educativos y el mercado laboral, que se traducen en enormes desigualdades en la distribución del ingreso. Para muchos niños y adolescentes no hay muchas opciones de salida; ingresan o son cooptados por los carteles del narcotráfico o recurren a la migración forzada a los Estados Unidos como forma de obtener ingresos económicos e incluso para pertenecer y obtener reconocimiento.

La siguiente propuesta procura ofrecer una reflexión metodológica sobre el trabajo de investigación con las memorias de las infancias del pasado. Esta reflexión comienza por historizar la memoria infantil como problema, los rasgos particulares y tensiones que surgen de su estudio. Seguido a ello se profundiza en la herramienta de la entrevista oral como modo de ingreso a las memorias de infancia. Más tarde el texto plantea el debate en torno a las características y la identificación de la voz infantil en las memorias de infancia. En esta discusión intentaré esbozar una propuesta que apoyada en la singular temporalidad implicada en la labor memorial.Así, el artículo busca aportar a la exploración de un objeto complejo como lo son las memorias de infancia que, mientras se impulsan en su movimiento, vuelven hacia atrás y hacia adelante columpiando las escenas que organizan una narrativa singular sobre la experiencia infantil del pasado.
Difracción, trabajo de campo y voz infantil.

En este artículo exploro mi trayectoria de investigación sobre las experiencias infantiles en contextos de desigualdad en Villa María y Villa Nueva (Córdoba, Argentina), haciendo foco en los vínculos de confianza, negociaciones y dilemas que emergen en las relaciones con niñxs y otrxs actorxs durante mi trabajo doctoral y posdoctoral.Primero, desde la epistemología feminista expongo algunos supuestos sobre la reflexividad en la investigación manifestando que la producción de conocimiento demanda una mirada introspectiva e intersubjetiva, situada y una objetividad fuerte pero no neutral. Posteriormente, presento mis recorridos de investigación y me detengo en ciertas articulaciones afectivas, semióticas y materiales establecidas con niñxs y sus familias, entre otrxs actorxs, para señalar cómo a partir de allí fui comprendiendo dimensiones de la experiencia y la agencia infantil. Por último, expresó que la voz de la infancia puede ser conocida desde una reflexión activa o difracción sobre las múltiples temporalidades, conflictos y agentes que la configuran.

Authors: Mannucci Gianluca
Published: April 2024

Carbon dioxide transport plays a crucial role in carbon capture and storage systems. As an economical and convenient carrier, pipelines have huge advantages in the transport of carbon dioxide. To aim to achieve a net-zero carbon emission over the next 20 - 30 years, the demand to lower carbon emission and the expansion of carbon capture, utilization and storage will require many new CO2 pipelines.

This is a desk study on pipeline transportation of CO2 to define a future project roadmap and provide the necessary knowledge to safely and reliably transport anthropogenic CO2 by pipelines in either gas, liquid, dense phase.
PR-214-223808-R01 Verification of Screening Tools for Classifying ILI Reported Dents with Metal Loss Features
Authors: Rana Arnav , Tiku Sanjay
Published: April 2024

The API RP 1183 [1], has not been adopted by the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) by reference in code of federal regulations (CFR) 192.712 (c). CFR 192.712 (c) allows pipeline operators to follow prescriptive requirements for responding to mechanical damage features or perform an engineering critical assessment (ECA). The requirements of CFR 192.712 (c) include minimum requirements for what would comprise an acceptable ECA.

Guidelines and methods provided in API 1183 and available elsewhere in the industry cannot be easily applied to evaluate dents where gouges or cracks may be present. As a result, simple engineering tools such as those provided in Appendix H of API 1183 have been developed to help classify metal loss coincident with dents as being corrosion or a gouge-like features. The objective of this research project is to evaluate, verify and/or further develop tools that pipeline operators can use to help distinguish ILI reported metal loss features that are coincident with dents as being corrosion or gouge-like features. This would allow operators to apply appropriate assessment techniques when assessing the reported features for remediation or assessment using ECA as allowed by CFR 192.

New UNCITRAL instruments in the field of commercial and investment mediation of 2021, 2022 and 2023

UNCITRAL has recently elaborated a number of new instruments in the field of mediation, both for commercial mediation and for investment mediation: Mediation Rules (2021), Notes on Mediation (2021), Recommendations to assist mediation centres and other interested bodies with regard to mediation under the UNCITRAL Mediation Rules (2022), UNCITRAL Model provisions for International Investment Disputes (2023), UNCITRAL Guidelines on Mediation for International Investment Disputes (2023). Some of these instruments need to be adopted by States in order to become legally enforceable, but other instruments do not need to be adopted by States and can be agreed between the parties. These different instruments are briefly outlined in this contribution.
Understanding Korea’s Advance Customs Valuation Arrangement and Refund Claim Regimes
Authors: Cheol Cho Jeong
Published: April 2024

The Korea Customs Service (KCS) has introduced a unique customs system known as the Advance Customs Valuation Arrangement (ACVA). The ACVA refers to a system for an advance agreement on the method of determining the customs value of imported goods traded between related parties, such as an overseas parent company and its subsidiary in Korea. Such agreement is made between a taxpayer and the customs authorities at the request of the taxpayer. Under the ACVA, the customs authorities postpone or waive post-clearance audits of customs value of imported goods during the term of the agreement, and the taxpayer is obliged to report on a regular basis as to whether the terms and conditions of the ACVA have been fully complied with. The ACVA is analogous to an advance pricing arrangement (APA) under the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development’s (OECD) guidelines for international tax. In addition, the Korean Government amended the Customs Act and the Adjustment of International Taxes Act, which established and implemented the system that provides for a review of a tax assessment following an adjustment of the value of imported goods by one of the tax authorities, either the KCS or National Tax Service, relating to an international transaction between related parties.
How Do the Changing International Trade Relations Impact on Public Administration?
Authors: Altemoller Frank
Published: April 2024

Seldom has world trade policy been the focus of such controversial public debate as it is today—and it is now accompanied by changes to practical trade policy that are more far reaching than any we’ve seen before. First, there was the formation of the contentious free trade agreements, such as the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA), Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) and Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP), and the ensuing worldwide protests over the exclusion of the public from the associated negotiations. Then came the surprise announcement from the new US presidency of the intention to step away from the TPP and TTIP—even though the USA had previously campaigned particularly strongly for those agreements. This development is accompanied by a far-reaching stagnation of current multilateral negotiations, as they exist within the framework of the world trade system. These issues all occupy places in the current political discussion around trade liberalisation. However, this contribution goes further, to focus on an equally important issue that is much less acknowledged in the public sphere, and that relates to the interdependence of the regulatory framework for economic integration with civil society, business and the administration. Free trade agreements—such as the World Trade Organization (WTO) Agreement on Trade Facilitation—can be looked on as models of international governance, exerting a considerable influence on the players in the member states. The author argues that business and the administration are then called to the task of devising and implementing appropriate strategies and following up with any necessary adaptations. He demonstrates that, for the stakeholders involved, economic integration simultaneously represents challenge, an intention to change and the opportunity for renewal.
Which performance markers have the greatest impact on lacrosse point production?
Authors: Ferrenburg Zachary
Published: April 2024

Purpose: The purpose of this literature review was to explore what performance markers have the greatest impact on lacrosse point production. Method: A literature search was performed using the Google Scholar database. All articles were accessed through a combination of the Lasell University Library and Indiana University Purdue University Indianapolis Library. Some journals that were included in this paper are Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, The Journal of Sports Medicine and Physical Fitness, Journal of Athletic Enhancement, International Journal of Exercise Science and many others. The initial criteria for sources were set for peer reviewed articles within the last 10 years. Due to a void in research, older sources were included to help provide a bigger picture of the research. Results: Of the 32 studies, 12 looked at men’s lacrosse, 16 looked at women’s lacrosse, 2 studies collected data from both men’s and women’s teams, and lastly 1 included article looked at sports that were not lacrosse. Of the 32 studies, 24 of them explore performance markers, 2 studies explored exclusively point production variables, and 6 studies looked at the relationship between performance markers and point production. Conclusion: All studies included in this paper create a fundamental base of research for the sport of lacrosse. The base of suggestions from this article appears to be improvements should focus on decreasing body fat percentage, improving anaerobic training, and increasing muscular strength. All three of which could be linked together physiologically.

Published: April 2024

It is known that children of the same chronological age show differences in biological growth. For better results, it is important for coaches and sports scientists to understand how age influences physical and physiological performance in sports. Methodology; this systematic search was used to conduct on the influence of age on the development of speed and agility components in 10-14-year-old male soccer and basketball players. Identification of study sources: Academic databases such as PubMed, Google Scholar and SPORT Discus were used to search for relevant articles in the last 10 years. Keywords and phrases included "age and sports performance," "speed and agility development," "youth". Results; in total, 60 studies or scientific articles that fit the inclusion criteria in our study were reviewed.

Published: April 2024

Esta pesquisa buscou observar, quantificar e refletir sobre o uso de recursos audiovisuais na formação inicial de professores do curso de licenciatura em Pedagogia da Universidade Federal de São João del-Rei (UFSJ). O interesse pelo tema emergiu de diversos fatores, entre eles: a) provocações profissionais, pois, ao que tudo indica, existem lacunas entre o universo do audiovisual e a formação inicial docente, b) gosto pessoal pela utilização do audiovisual como recurso didático, uma vez que as possibilidades de utilização desses artefatos são amplas, c) necessidade de encontrar respostas à problemática central que motiva as provocações latentes que concernem em: a utilização do audiovisual, enquanto unidade curricular do curso de Pedagogia, pode contribuir para a formação dos(as) futuros(as) docentes. Diante disso, o trabalho teve como objetivo central: verificar se a linguagem audiovisual está presente na formação acadêmica dos estudantes de curso de Pedagogia. A metodologia utilizada foi análise bibliográfica e análise documental de planos de ensino elaborados e utilizados pelos docentes formadores no curso supramencionado. Os dados foram coletados nos anos de 2019 e 2020 e foram analisados a partir de uma perspectiva quanti-qualitativa. O referencial teórico foi pautado sob dois prismas, de um lado, estudiosos do campo da arte e dos artefatos audiovisuais, como: Adriana Fresquet (2013), Ernst Fischer (1966), Laura Maria Coutinho (2013), Marília da Silva Franco (1987), entre outros e, por outro lado, autores que defendem a formação docente na perspectiva da Pedagogia da Autonomia, sendo Paulo Freire o autor principal desse campo de estudos. Entre outros resultados, em alguns planos de ensino, localizamos informações sobre os registros que apontavam o uso da linguagem audiovisual no cotidiano do processo formativo docente no curso em questão. Partimos da premissa que formar com o audiovisual é propiciar o desenvolvimento de uma formação mais humanizada e contextualizada.

The objective of the current research is to provide an overview of how blockchain can contribute to maritime logistics operations through an analysis of initiatives already carried out in the sector. This is an exploratory, initially bibliographic research conducted by searching the databases of the online journal platforms Scielo, Google Scholar, and CAPES Journals Portal. In view of the novelty of the topic, there was a need to conduct research on different academic databases, such as business forums and search engines. Prospective monitoring of the application of the technology in maritime logistics was therefore carried out. The results point to the use of blockchain were: 1. in bill of lading management (freight knowledge); 2. in a joint venture between Maersk and IBM in the development of the “Tradelens” platform, to facilitate documentation involving the cargo to be transported; and 3. in the consortium formed by AB InBev, Accenture, APL, Kuehne+Nagel, and the European Customs Organization for Blockchain-based solutions.

Rozważania o podmiotowości prawnopodatkowej na gruncie podatku od towarów i usług – przykład spółki cywilnej
Authors: Błaszczak Barbara
Published: April 2024

W niniejszym artykule podjęto tematykę podmiotowości spółki cywilnej na gruncie prawa podatkowego w podatku od towarów i usług. Wskazano na możliwość posiadania przez spółkę cywilną statusu podatnika tego podatku mimo braku zdolności prawnej na gruncie prawa cywilnego. W artykule dokonano również zestawienia statusu spółki cywilnej jako podmiotu podatku od towarów i usług z sytuacją umowy nienazwanej o podobnym charakterze, jaką jest umowa konsorcjum. W konkluzjach zawartych w podsumowaniu podkreślono, że w dobie rozwoju gospodarczego i wzrostu popularności podobnych do spółki cywilnej struktur, niebędących podatnikami żadnego podatku, można by rozważyć ujednolicenie statusu spółki cywilnej z tymi umowami na gruncie podatku od towarów i usług. Jednakże zdaniem autorki obecny sposób regulacji tego zagadnienia jest odpowiedni do charakterystyki funkcjonowania spółki cywilnej w obrocie.

La resistencia a los antibióticos carbapenémicos en Acinetobacter baumannii es un problema de salud pública de creciente importancia, especialmente en pacientes hospitalizados con COVID-19. Este estudio tuvo como objetivo determinar los factores de resistencia a carbapenémicos de A. baumannii en pacientes con COVID-19 internados en la unidad de cuidados intensivos (UCI) del Hospital de Santa Elena, Ecuador, y su asociación con la tasa de mortalidad durante el período 2021-2023. Se realizó un estudio observacional retrospectivo en el que se analizaron las historias clínicas de 64 pacientes con COVID-19 y la infección por A. baumannii en UCI. Se evaluó la prevalencia de A. baumannii, la resistencia a carbapenémicos y su asociación con factores como edad, estancia hospitalaria, comorbilidades y ventilación mecánica. Además, se determinó la asociación entre la resistencia y la mortalidad mediante pruebas de chi-cuadrado. La prevalencia de A. baumannii en pacientes con COVID-19 fue del 25%. El 83% de los pacientes aislados fueron resistentes a los carbapenémicos imipenem y meropenem. Se encontró una asociación significativa entre la resistencia a carbapenémicos y una mayor tasa de mortalidad (62% vs. 38%, p = 0,007). Factores como la edad avanzada, la estancia hospitalaria prolongada, las comorbilidades y la ventilación mecánica se asociaron con una mayor resistencia a carbapenémicos (p < 0,05). Estos hallazgos resaltan la necesidad de implementar medidas de control de infecciones y optimizar el uso de antibióticos para abordar la amenaza de la resistencia antimicrobiana en entornos hospitalarios.

INELEGIBILIDADE POR REJEIÇÃO DE CONTAS DE PREFEITOS E PRESIDENTES DAS CÂMARAS MUNICIPAIS E O TRIBUNAL DE CONTAS DO ESTADO DE SÃO PAULO
Authors: Espanha Marcelo Bueno
Published: April 2024

O presente artigo versa sobre a inelegibilidade em função do julgamento das contas de Prefeitos e Presidentes de Câmaras Municipais pelo Tribunal de Contas de São Paulo. A inelegibilidade por rejeição de contas é um óbice ao exercício dos direitos políticos e impacta o registro de candidaturas em todas as eleições, pois a rejeição de contas impede o candidato de ser votado. Para os Prefeitos a regra geral é a de que as decisões do Tribunal de Contas têm natureza de parecer prévio, sendo que a Câmara Municipal é que tem a competência para julgar o parecer prévio, e se rejeitar as contas tornar o Prefeito inelegível. Como exceção, nos casos de contas relativas à Convênios, é o julgamento do Tribunal de Contas, em caso de rejeição de contas, que torna inelegível o Prefeito. Nos casos dos Presidentes das Câmaras Municipais do Estado de São Paulo, o julgamento de suas contas é feito exclusivamente pelo Tribunal de Contas do Estado de São Paulo, sendo que a inelegibilidade consuma-se no caso de rejeição pela Corte de Contas. A metodologia utilizada foi a revisão narrativa da literatura, buscando traçar o regime jurídico atual sobre o tema à luz da legislação e jurisprudência.
