Authors: Karhapää Hanna , Mäkelä Siru , Laurén Hanna , Jaakkola Marjut , Schalin-Jäntti Camilla , Hernberg Micaela
Published: January 2022

Objective

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) can cause endocrine adverse events. However, endocrine AEs could be related to better treatment outcomes. Our aim was to investigate whether this holds true in a real-world setting of metastatic melanoma patients.

Design

A retrospective single-institution study.

Methods

We included 140 consecutive metastatic melanoma patients treated with ICI between January 2012 and May 2019. We assessed the endocrine toxicity and the best possible treatment outcomes from electronic patient records, including laboratory parameters and radiological images.

Results

Of the treated patients, 21 patients (15%) were treated with ipilimumab, 46 (33%) with nivolumab, 67 (48%) with pembrolizumab, and 6 (4%) with combination therapy (ipilimumab + nivolumab). Endocrine AEs appeared in 29% (41/140) patients. Three patients had two different endocrine AEs. Thyroid disorders were the most common: 26% (36/140), followed by hypophysitis: 4% (5/140). Three subjects (2%, 3/140) were diagnosed with autoimmune diabetes. Three patients had to terminate treatment due to endocrine toxicity. Radiological manifestations of endocrine AEs were found in 16 patients (39%, 16/41). Endocrine toxicity was associated with significantly better treatment outcomes. Median progression-free survival (8.1 months, range 5.1–11.1 months vs 2.7 months, range 2.4–3.0 months, P < 0.001), and median overall survival (47.5 months, range 15.5–79.5 months vs 23.7 months, range 15.3–32.1 months, P = 0.035) were longer for patients experiencing endocrine AEs.

Conclusions

The higher number of endocrine AEs suggest that regular laboratory monitoring aids in AE detection. Endocrine AEs in metastatic melanoma may correlate with better treatment outcomes.

Treatment of acetabular fractures is challenging and risky, especially when surgery is performed. Yet, stability and congruity of the hip joint need to be achieved to ensure early mobilization, painlessness, and good function. Therefore, coming up with an accurate decision, whether surgical treatment is indicated or not, is the key to successful therapy.

Data from the German pelvic Trauma Registry (n  = 4213) was evaluated retrospectively, especially regarding predictors for surgery. Furthermore, a logistic regression model with surgical treatment as the dependent variable was established.

In total, 25.8% of all registered patients suffered from an acetabular fracture and 61.9% of them underwent surgery. The fracture classification is important for the indication of surgical therapy. Anterior wall fractures were treated surgically in 10.2%, and posterior column plus posterior wall fractures were operated on in 90.2%. Also, larger fracture gaps were treated surgically more often than fractures with smaller gaps (>3 mm 84.4%, <1 mm 20%). In total, 51.4% of women and 66.0% of men underwent surgery. Apart from the injury severity score (ISS), factors that characterize the overall picture of the injury were of no importance for the indication of a surgical therapy (isolated pelvic fracture: 62.0%, polytrauma: 58.8%). The most frequent reason for non-operative treatment was ‘minimal displacement’ in 42.2%.

Besides fracture classification and fracture characteristics, no factors characterizing the overall injury, except for the ISS, and unexpectedly gender, are important for making a treatment decision. Further studies are needed to determine the relevance of these factors, and whether they should be used for the decision-making process, in particular surgeons with less experience in pelvic surgery, can orient themselves to.

Published: January 2022

There are advocates of both two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) templating methods for planning total hip replacement.

The aim of this study was to compare the accuracy of implant size prediction when using 2D and 3D templating methods for total hip arthroplasty, as well as to compare the inter- and intra-observer reliability in order to determine whether currently available methods are sufficiently reliable and reproducible.

Medline, EMBASE and PubMed were searched to identify studies that compared the accuracy of 2D and 3D templating for total hip replacement.

Results were screened using the PRISMA flowchart and included studies were assessed for their level of evidence using the Oxford CEBM criteria. Non-randomized trials were critically appraised using the MINORS tool, whilst randomized trials were assessed using the CASP RCT checklist.

A series of meta-analyses of the data for accuracy were also conducted.

Ten studies reported that 3D templating is an accurate and reliable method of templating for total hip replacement. Six studies compared 3D templating with 2D templating, all of which concluded that 3D templating was more accurate, with three finding a statistically significant difference.

The meta-analyses showed that 3D CT templating is the most accurate method.

This review supports the hypothesis that 3D templating is an accurate and reliable method of preoperative planning, which is more accurate than 2D templating for predicting implant size. However, further research is needed to ascertain the significance of this improved accuracy and whether it will yield any clinical benefit.
Research of beta-radioactivity of certain medicinal plants of Dnipro area
Authors: Lisovets O. I. , Serchenko I. S.
Published: January 2022

In the course of research conducted in the laboratory of radioecology of DNU, information was obtained on the beta-radioactivity of nine species of medicinal plants from two types of habitats – meadow biocenosis on the outskirts of the village. Kirovsky Dnipro region and a weed-meadow group near the town of Kamyanske, Dnipro area. Beta-radioactivity of the studied medicinal plants varied in the range from 1.18×10-5 Bq to 19.09×10-5 Bq at relatively clean habitats and from 18.35×10-5 Bq to 82.95×10-5 Bq on the anthropogenically polluted area. In a relatively clean habitat, the lowest indicators of beta-radioactivity in aboveground organs are characterized by Artemisia vulgaris L. and Capsella bursa-pastoris (L.) Medikus, the highest – Hypericum perforatum L. and Achillea submillefolium Klokov & Krytzka. In the underground organs, the highest indicators of beta-radioactivity were recorded in Artemisia vulgaris and Hypericum perforatum, the lowest – in Melissa officinalis L. and Valeriana officinalis L. Under conditions of industrial pollution, the lowest indicators of beta-radioactivity in aboveground organs were found in Artemisia vulgaris and Matricaria recutita L., in underground – in Tanacetum vulgare L. and Achillea submillefolium. The highest values of beta-radioactivity in these conditions were registered in the aboveground organs of Tanacetum vulgare and Hypericum perforatum and in the underground parts of  Melissa officinalis and Hypericum perforatum. The analysis showed that the anthropogenic factor (pollution) has a statistically proven effect on the beta-radioactivity of the studied medicinal plants (with a probability of P = 0.999). Indicators of the strength of influence were high – from 67 to 85%. Anthropogenic pollution has the greatest impact on the beta-radioactivity of underground organs. The identified trend reflects a well-known natural dependence – the farther along the transport chain from the root is the body, the less, as a rule, it accumulates radionuclides. The detected values of beta-radioactivity, including in the industrially contaminated area are not dangerous with a single use of the studied medicinal plants. However, medicinal plants collected in the contaminated area due to increased beta-radioactivity can cause damage with prolonged systematic use due to the cumulative effect and are therefore not recommended for use.

Authors: Ibarra-Cantún Diego , Delgado-Alvarado Adriana , Herrera-Cabrera Braulio Edgar , Luna-Guevara María Lorena
Published: January 2022

The study evaluated the effect of storage temperatures of 7 and 22 °C for 168 h on tomatoes (Charleston cv.) inoculated with 107 CFU mL-1 of the enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli pathogroup (ETEC) strain on color indexes (hue angle, h°, and chroma, C*), firmness, titratable acidity (% citric acid), ascorbic acid, total soluble sugars and reducing sugars (glucose, fructose, and sucrose). ETEC survived with populations of 7 and 9.2 Log CFU g-1 at 7 and 22 °C, respectively until 120 h. Bacterial adherence and colonization under both storage conditions were confirmed by scanning electron microscopy. The index C* and ascorbic acid had higher values at 22 °C, while the parameters h°, firmness, and citric acid had lower values at the same storage temperature. At 7 °C, the concentration of total soluble sugars was affected; glucose and fructose showed lower values (0.054 and 0.057 g 100 g-1, respectively). Finally, the inoculated fruits exhibited significant differences in the parameters of consumer preference of fresh tomatoes such as color, firmness, sugars, and organic acids, which were affected depending on the storage temperature.

Published: January 2022

This study aimed to evaluate the bioclimatic performance of three wet coffee processing facilities in Colombia, focused on the conditions for workers and coffee parchment, through computer simulation. In addition to temperature and relative humidity, the Wet-Bulb Globe Temperature index (WBGT) was simulated during the highest coffee production month. The proposed simulation model was able to predict hygrothermal behavior within the three coffee processing facilities. Case 3 presented the warmest environment, and case 2 the most humid environment concerning the appropriate conditions for the coffee and the worker. The WBGT index limit was exceeded in case 3. Since this type of facility emits large amounts of heat and steam, constructive modifications are suggested to improve the environmental conditions of workers and coffee. Mainly, the physical separation of the heat exchangers is recommended, which ideally should be outside the post-harvest facility. The steam produced in the drying process should be quickly evacuated with ventilation strategies. Additionally, the use of strategies that reduce the energy gain from solar radiation is suggested.

Published: January 2022

The strategic importance of the internet for television became evident in the early 2000s, even destabilizing its very concept and finally resulting in convergence towards a profound transformation of the sector. The introduction of global over-the-top (OTT) media services into local markets has led to strategic changes in multimedia groups. This study considers the subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) services of Atresmedia and Mediaset España, the two main traditional media organizations in Spain that form a duopoly in the country’s commercial television sector, with the aim of understanding and evaluating their positioning strategy in this market and the results obtained through the diversification of their core business. Based on an analysis of their content, price, and promotion policies and the results in terms of subscriptions and revenues, slight differences emerge regarding the strategy and scope of these two groups in their own environment in the sector. They compete for customers to achieve growth in the audiovisual market while seeking to retain a cross-media, multiplatform audience, as well as expand their core business of commercial linear television against a background of a reduction of advertising spend on television and the expected increase of hybrid financing models.
On $n$-absorbing prime ideals of commutative rings
Authors: ISSOUAL Mohammed , MAHDOU Najib , ABDOU SALAM MOUTUİ Moutu
Published: January 2022

This paper investigates the class of rings in which every nn-absorbing ideal is a prime ideal, called nn-AB ring, where nn is a positive integer. We give a characterization of an nn-AB ring. Next, for a ring RR, we study the concept of Ω(R)={ωR(I);I is a proper ideal of R},Ω(R)={ωR(I);I is a proper ideal of R}, where ωR(I)=min{n;I is an n-absorbing ideal of R}ωR(I)=min{n;I is an n-absorbing ideal of R}. We show that if RR is an Artinian ring or a Prüfer domain, then Ω(R)∩NΩ(R)∩N does not have any gaps (i.e., whenever n∈Ω(R)n∈Ω(R) is a positive integer, then every positive integer below nn is also in Ω(R)Ω(R)). Furthermore, we investigate rings which satisfy property (**) (i.e., rings RR such that for each proper ideal II of RR with ωR(I)<∞ωR(I)<∞, $\omega_{R}(I)=\mid Min_R(I)\mid $ωR(I)=∣MinR(I)∣, where MinR(I)MinR(I) denotes the set of prime ideals of RR minimal over II). We present several properties of rings that satisfy condition (**). We prove that some open conjectures which concern nn-absorbing ideals are partially true for rings which satisfy condition (**). We apply the obtained results to trivial ring extensions.

Published: January 2022

Visual object detection is an important artificial intelligence (AI) technique for safety monitoring applications. Current approaches for building visual object detection models require large and well‐labeled dataset stored by a centralized entity. This not only poses privacy concerns under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), but also incurs large transmission and storage overhead. Federated learning (FL) is a promising machine learning paradigm to address these challenges. In this paper, we report on FedVision—a machine learning engineering platform to support the development of federated learning powered computer vision applications—to bridge this important gap. The platform has been deployed through collaboration between WeBank and Extreme Vision to help customers develop computer vision‐based safety monitoring solutions in smart city applications. Through actual usage, it has demonstrated significant efficiency improvement and cost reduction while fulfilling privacy‐preservation requirements (e.g., reducing communication overhead for one company by 50 fold and saving close to 40,000RMB of network cost per annum). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first practical application of FL in computer vision‐based tasks.
Recommendations as treatments

Published: January 2022

In recent years, a new line of research has taken an interventional view of recommender systems, where recommendations are viewed as actions that the system takes to have a desired effect. This interventional view has led to the development of counterfactual inference techniques for evaluating and optimizing recommendation policies. This article explains how these techniques enable unbiased offline evaluation and learning despite biased data, and how they can inform considerations of fairness and equity in recommender systems.
Liparis inaudita (Orchidaceae, Malaxidinae), a new species from the Bosque de Protección Alto Mayo, San Martín, Peru
Authors: Salazar Gerardo A. , Edquén José D. , Trujillo Delsy
Published: January 2022

Background: During an ongoing inventory of the orchids of the Bosque de Protección Alto Mayo, northern Peru, a population morphologically assignable to Liparis section Decumbentes was found. This is a little-known group restricted to wet montane Andean forests and consists of four species, from which the BPAM populations differs in leaf and labellum morphology.
Hypotheses: The features of the plants led us to hypothesize that it represents an unknown species, which can be distinguished morphologically from its congeners.
Taxon: Liparis section Decumbentes , Liparis sp. nov.
Study site and dates: Peru, department of San Martín, Rioja province, Pardo Miguel Naranjos district, Bosque de Protección Alto Mayo, sector Venceremos.
Methods: The unknown entity was studied in detail using fresh, pressed, and alcohol-preserved specimens. We also compared it to type specimens, other specimens of Liparis section Decumbentes housed in herbaria in Peru and abroad, and with descriptions from specialized literature.
Results: A leaf feature and the unique labellum morphology of the unknown entity permit it to be distinguished clearly from all other species of Liparis section Decumbentes .
Conclusions: The new species shares with L. sessilis the sessile leaf blades and the convex labellum, but differs from it and all other species of the section in its saddle-shaped labellum, which when spread out is narrowly obtrapezoid, with minute basal auricles, laciniate distal margins, and the apex projected into a narrowly triangular lobe.
Victimological Characteristics and Prevention of Crimes Committed by Women (Regional Aspect)
Authors: Repetskaya Anna , Kononykhina Tatyana
Published: January 2022

The authors discuss the victimization characteristics of crimes committed by women in Irkutsk and Transbaikal Regions, the characteristics of the personality of the victim of these infringements, the behavioral patterns of the criminal and the victim in the process of victimization, their relationships and social connections. The research, based on the statistical analysis and study of 250 criminal cases, allowed the authors to come to a number of conclusions, including the following ones. Victimization trends in the regions under consideration are unfavorable, the victimization level is growing, and the growth rate is higher in Irkutsk Region than in Transbaikal Region. The structure of regional victimization is dominated by crimes against property, while other types in this structure are crimes against life and health, family and minors, as well as against health of the population and public morals. Characteristic features of victims of regional female crimes are age victimity, as every second victim in Transbaikal Region and every third in Irkutsk Region has it, and a considerable victimogenic personality deformation of most middle-aged victims. Such victims show guilty (unlawful, amoral or light-minded) behavior, which is the manifestation of their personal victimity.
Using the obtained results, the authors worked out a system of victimological prevention measures aimed at stopping and neutralizing the identified victimogenic factors. They suggest legal, organizational, information, educational measures, as well as measures of rehabilitation and procedural nature. Taking into account the regional specifics of victimization, the personality of crime victims, their victim-like behavior can make the practice of victimological prevention more effective.
Anti-Corruption Criminological Security as a New Direction of Research
Authors: Damm Irina
Published: January 2022

The sustainability of existence and the high destructive potential of corruption determined its place among the global problems that the humanity faces. One of the unique characteristics of corruption is its ability to adapt to the changing factors of the external environment, including the preventive measures. At the same time, continuous reproduction and development of various forms of corruption predetermines the necessity for improving ways of preventing it. Delays or insufficient effectiveness of counteracting publicly dangerous forms of corruption may jeopardize the system-forming elements of the society and the state, may result in their destruction. The complex nature of the phenomenon of corruption requires a search for new fundamental approaches in counteracting it. From the standpoint of history, the Russian Federation developed the legal and organizational basis of counteracting corruption in the shortest time possible. At the same time, the analysis of how this system functions makes it possible to conclude that it is at the limit of its possible extension. The existing situation is partially explained by the fact that, in view of the urgency of problems to be solved, the practice of building the state model of corruption counteraction was always ahead of scientific findings, which led to inevitable intrasystem contradictions. To reach a whole new level in the development of anti-corruption work, it is necessary to find fundamentally new approaches which would make it possible to unite a substantial body of available interdisciplinary knowledge within one guiding idea and present an optimal theoretical model. Modern Russian research is actively studying specific features of corruption and corruption crimes as well as ways of preventing them. At the same time, there have not yet been any fundamental research of the criminological aspects of anti-corruption activities from the standpoint of ensuring national security. One of the prospective directions of such research is the development of the theoretical basis of anti-corruption security as an inter-branch direction of research. Taking into account that crimes of corruption inflict the greatest damage on public relations, it should be noted that the research of anti-corruption criminological security has a considerable scientific potential. Primary cognition of poly-aspect manifestations of anti-corruption criminological security as well as its systemic-structural characteristics will allow to estimate the prospects of the presented direction of research.
Problems of Protecting Virtual Game Property by Means of Criminal Law
Authors: Stepanov Pavel , Filatova Maria
Published: January 2022

The legal regulation of social relations in virtual reality is attracting an increasing attention of scholars. There are corresponding Russian and foreign publications concerning different branches of law: civil, tax, labor, international humanitarian, and criminology.
Criminological research is based, among other things, on the analysis of sociocultural factors: how online gaming behavior influences the «cultural normalization» of similar behavior in the real world, the problems and boundaries of permitted violence. At the same time, the problem of infringements on virtual game property is becoming more urgent. The first reason for this is the fact that the possession of virtual property can have legal and economic consequences in the real world. The second reason is connected with the absence, in most jurisdictions, of the legal regulation of the emerging property rights (or other «rights in rem») to game property, which hinders prosecution for crimes against it, or makes it impossible in some countries where criminal law protection is linked to positive legislation.
The authors believe that it is best to view these crimes as offences against property, and not cybercrimes in the narrow sense of the word. It is obvious that the problems of defining the crime of theft in the virtual space are connected with the understanding of the object and other features of theft, and the analysis thus mainly focuses on comparing the legal nature of virtual game property with how it corresponds to the features of theft in the current legislation. Key concepts of the legal nature of virtual game property are formulated, which are then analyzed from the standpoint of their applicability in criminal law. According to the authors, there are two main ways to solve the problem of virtual game property protection: either, following the approaches found in foreign practice, the definition of theft should be broadened, or the legal protection regime sui generis should be created to deal with the protection of all cyber aspects of property relations.

Published: January 2022

The relevance of the research is justified by the tendency to implement the axiological approach in education in the context of the need to construct a single space for the training of pedagogical personnel, therefore the question of the value-semantic expectations from the teaching profession is important. The purpose of the work is to determine the teachers and pupil’s value-semantic foundations of pedagogical activity. Sample of the study: 61 pupils of teacher classes, 425 teachers. Methods: operationalization of existing standards (educational and professional) and conceptual content analysis, which made it possible to develop an author’s methodology of values, laid down by educational and professional standards and adapt the MUST-test (for diagnosing values for purposes). Results: pupils are focused mainly on themselves, and teachers are focused on creating conditions for their activities. The system-forming values of the first — the ability to implement an individual approach to the child and knowledge of developing technologies, and the second-knowledge of the characteristics and technologies for creating a safe and comfortable educational environment. Diagnosed the tendency for teachers to replace the actual values with the declared. Teachers and pupils have approximately equal values-relationships aimed at the educational environment and professional activity, but values whose goal is the child occupy lower places in the rating. In both groups all values are expressed approximately equally, but they put different personal meaning into them.

Published: January 2022

Although a societal consensus has been reached about the partnership between human beings and smart machines, limited research has been carried out to consider advances in its combination pattern, function mechanism, and developing creativity. Based on occurred disruptive changes form theory to practice, a new paradigm of co-creation by synergistic human-machine is proposed, which refers to that interaction of human-machine learning in a holistic system increase complementarity of abilities and integration of wisdom to realize an augmented synergy made up of hybrid intelligences. This augmented intelligence can effectively account for shifts in business logic and the productive solutions to the multiple complex problems during smart manufacturing. It has been discovered that the positive consequences of synergistic human-machine co-creation include not only sustainable labor patterns, but the ability to overcome multiple complexities and steadily increase business value. All this is further elaborated in the Baizhentang Foods case. This paper discusses the main prospects of the theoretical developments presented here for future research on organizational behavior and a synergistic human-machine structure.

Objective. One of the most important tasks of dentistry at the present stage is creation of structures, which ensure a unity of dental system form and function and bring it closer to its original natural state. This approach permits to expand significantly the range of orthopedic treatment tasks and implement medical and technical requirements for materials, structures of dentures and splinting devices.

Materials and methods. The article reflects the results of an experimental study to determine the Poisson's ratio of the Dental D thermoplastic material used as a structural material for the manufacture of a new therapeutic and preventive dental splint as well as a biomechanical analysis of changes in the displacement amplitude of the teeth included in the splint.

Results. As a result, an accurate quantitative assessment of the developed method of tooth immobilization in mild periodontitis is given taking into account the behavior of the bone tissue of the lower jaw, hard tissues of the teeth and periodontium as well as in case when the dentition is affected by the chewing load.

Conclusions. The analysis of the obtained data allowed us to form practical recommendations for use of the developed design at the stages of orthopedic treatment of patients with the initial stage of periodontal pathology in order to reduce functional overload of dentition and maintain mobility of teeth at physiological level.

An Optimal Cloud Based Electric Vehicle Charging System
Authors: Chimakurthi Venkata Naga Satya Surendra
Published: January 2022

With the evolution of the internet-of-things and the emergence of cloud computing, the charging dynamics of vehicles have changed. This work discusses cloud-based monitoring and management used in charging electric vehicles and their impact on the smart charging system. Charging management plays a key role in assessing the charging infrastructure because of the automakers and charging service providers. As the market evolves, this system looks at the present public and private sectors that provide charging stations and contrasts them with modern cloud-based charging in electric vehicles. The cloud module developed contains layers, with the top layer of the robust calculating ability, which is globally optimized using machine learning technology. The bottom layer counters the real-time issues with the controller. The system also analyzes the current demands in the market and forms strategies to maximize profits through smart charging systems.

Cogito, ergo est cogitabile. Cogitabile est, ergo cogito
Authors: Meer Rudolf
Published: January 2022

Over the last two decades, the controversy between conceptualists and nonconceptualists has provided important insights into Kant’s critical project and especially the transcendental deduction. At the same time, the differentiation of the various positions has led to a seemingly unsolvable paradox in interpretation. However, if the intensifications of the debate are withdrawn and the current positions are placed in the context of historical interpretations, it becomes apparent that a nonconceptualism can indeed be developed without coming into (irresolvable) conflict with Kant’s conceptualism. In this sense, Alois Riehl proposes in his Philosophical Criticism (vol. 1) a so-called state nonconceptualism. Even if he does not have the terminology in use today, he can defend this on par with the current debate especially with regard to A 89–90 / B 122–123. In doing so, Riehl’s realistic interpretation of Kant’s transcendental idealism offers strategies that again question a hasty skepticism towards nonconceptualist interpretations.
Praca rodziców na wsi we wspomnieniach z dzieciństwa pokolenia Millenialsów
Authors: Wołk Zdzisław
Published: January 2022

Praca stanowi jedną z głównych form aktywności człowieka. Praca Millenialsów we wspomnieniach z dzieciństwa jest obecna i mocno akcentowana. Mogą one umożliwiać odtworzenie okoliczności, w jakich kształtowana była kultura pracy w środowisku wiejskim. Na podstawie refleksji biograficznych możliwa jest rekonstrukcja subiektywnego doświadczania pracy w warunkach i okolicznościach, w jakich przebiegało dzieciństwo. W przypadku pokolenia Millenialsów były to lata dziewięćdziesiąte, czyli początkowy okres transformacji ustrojowej. W środowisku wiejskim przebiegała ona specyficznie. Przebiegi dróg życiowych i zawodowych jak i sylwetki osobowe ówczesnych dzieci wiejskich są związane z doświadczeniami nabytymi przez nich w tamtym okresie. Odwołanie się do refleksji autobiograficznych z okresu dzieciństwa poszerza wiedzę na temat „tamtych czasów” i ukazuje indywidualne doświadczenia związane z pracą. Umożliwia także lepsze poznanie i zrozumienie późniejszego funkcjonowania społecznego, szczególnie zawodowego w okresie dorosłości. W przypadku Millenialsów pochodzących ze środowisk wiejskich we wspomnieniach pracy z okresu dzieciństwa wyraźnie zauważalne jest powszechnie występujące zapracowanie rodziców, ich zmęczenie pracą, częste też wykonywanie przez rodziców dodatkowej pracy w gospodarstwie rolnym prowadzonym na własne potrzeby. Czasu wolnego ani czasu dla dzieci rodzice nie mieli wcale, gdyż treścią wypełniającą kolejne dni była praca zawodowa i w gospodarstwie. Wyraźnie różne są wspomnienia dotyczące pracy poszczególnych rodziców – ojcowie koncentrowali się zazwyczaj na pracy zawodowej, matki – natomiast obok pracy zawodowej dźwigały ciężar prowadzenia domu. Do prac też angażowane były dzieci. Zazwyczaj były to prace związane z opieką nad rodzeństwem, prace porządkowe i samoobsługowe oraz pomoc przy sezonowych pracach polowych. We wspomnieniach z okresu dzieciństwa najstarszych Millenialsów, określanych jako „pokolenie cyfrowe”, nie występują nowe media elektroniczne ani technologie elektroniczne. Praca ich rodziców zazwyczaj była pracą fizyczną. W pamięci dzieci utrwaliła się jako praca zazwyczaj ciężka, wyczerpująca, a jednocześnie konieczna. Była źródłem utrzymania i tak też była traktowana przez rodziców, którzy wykonywali ją z odpowiedzialnością i zaangażowaniem. Nie narzekali na jej nadmiar i powodowane przez nią zmęczenie.
São Paulo’s strategic master plan and the challenges of sustainable urban transformation

Published: January 2022

Cities play an essential role in the challenge of sustainability, and urban planning is one of the main tools for guiding urban transformation processes. This paper analyses the São Paulo Master Plan 2014, considering the principles and guidelines on compact cities, sustainable adaptation and ecosystem-based adaptation. An urban development model within sustainable parameters, however, involves conflict dynamics. In this sense, the views and demands of the main stakeholders seeking to influence the regulatory arena of São Paulo's urban policy are mapped. The analysis focuses on attempts to change the zoning law that would affect several of the definitions agreed in the Master Plan, prioritising mainly the interests of real estate developers.
The sustainability of indigenous lands in Amapá state
Authors: Campos Alcinéia Miranda , Nascimento Francisco Gean Freitas do , Cunha Helenilza Ferreira Albuquerque
Published: January 2022

We herein assess population growth in indigenous lands (ILs) Wajãpi, Uaçá, Galibi and Juminã in Amapá State-Brazil, which has influenced deforestation increase. We assumed the hypothesis of no association between demographic density and deforestation because population density in these areas is low. We used population growth, deaths, and deforestation data by considering a historical series (2002-2018). Demographic data have shown that Uaçá and Wajãpi ILs recorded the highest population growth. The highest demographic density was observed for Galibi ILs and the lowest one for Wajãpi ILs. The highest deforestation was observed for Uaçá ILs and the lowest one for Juminã ILs. Therefore, indigenous lands in Amapá State have an essential role in forest conservation.
