PRODUÇÃO LEGISLATIVA, GASTOS DE CAMPANHA E DESEMPENHO ELEITORAL: EVIDÊNCIAS A PARTIR DE UM ESTUDO DE CASO / LEGISLATIVE PRODUCTION, CAMPAIGN EXPENDITURE AND ELECTORAL PERFORMANCE: EVIDENCE FROM A CASE STUDY
Authors: Hayashi Renato 
Published: December 2020

Quais fatores explicam o desempenho eleitoral? Este artigo analisa o impacto da produção legislativa e dos gastos de campanha sobre a quantidade de votos recebido pelos vereadores do Recife nas eleições municipais de 2016. Testa-se duas hipóteses: 1) quanto maior a produção legislativa maior o número de votos e 2) quanto maior o gasto de campanha, maior a quantidade de votos. O desenho de pesquisa examina um banco de dados original elaborado a partir de informações secundárias coletadas nos sites da Câmara do Recife e do Tribunal Regional Eleitoral de Pernambuco. Os resultados indicam que, ao se considerar todos os casos (n=37), o modelo de regressão apresenta um ajuste de 0,456. No entanto, após a exclusão de um outlier, temos um r²=0,081, o que significa que as variáveis não explicam satisfatoriamente o desempenho eleitoral. Em termos substantivos, os resultados indicam que a performance eleitoral dos vereadores não é afetada pela produção legislativa formal nem pelo gasto de campanha.
POLICIAIS MILITARES NOS LEGISLATIVOS ESTADUAIS: PRODUÇÃO LEGISLATIVA, TEMAS E INTERESSES CORPORATIVOS
Authors: Souza Elias Ariel de 
Published: December 2020

A partir da legislatura de 2015 a 2018, com foco no conjunto das proposições legislativas, decidimos observar o universo dos deputados estaduais egressos das polícias militares no Brasil no sentido de verificar se os interesses corporativos das instituições policiais militares impactam no que propõem. Recorremos à base de dados do TSE e às bases de dados de recursos humanos das próprias Polícias Militares. Constatamos que o volume de proposições legislativas tende a diminuir na medida em que passa a legislatura; que no universo das proposições o tema homenagens corresponde a 23%, o tema administração pública 16,2 % e o tema social 14,3%; os interesses corporativos das policiais militares no Brasil representam em percentual cumulativo apenas 11,6 % entre outros achados. Não obstante os achados, aspectos detalhados do comportamento parlamentar de policiais militares permanecem abertos à discussão teórica.
The dual-field-of-view polarization lidar technique: a new concept in monitoring aerosol effects in liquid-water clouds – theoretical framework

Published: December 2020

Abstract. In a series of two articles, a novel, robust, and practicable lidar approach is presented that allows us to derive microphysical properties of liquid-water clouds (cloud extinction coefficient, droplet effective radius, liquid-water content, cloud droplet number concentration) at a height of 50–100 m above the cloud base. The temporal resolution of the observations is on the order of 30–120 s. Together with the aerosol information (aerosol extinction coefficients, cloud condensation nucleus concentration) below the cloud layer, obtained with the same lidar, in-depth aerosol–cloud interaction studies can be performed. The theoretical background and the methodology of the new cloud lidar technique is outlined in this article (Part 1), and measurement applications are presented in a companion publication (Part 2) (Jimenez et al., 2020a). The novel cloud retrieval technique is based on lidar observations of the volume linear depolarization ratio at two different receiver fields of view (FOVs). Extensive simulations of lidar returns in the multiple scattering regime were conducted to investigate the capabilities of a dual-FOV polarization lidar to measure cloud properties and to quantify the information content in the measured depolarization features regarding the basic retrieval parameters (cloud extinction coefficient, droplet effective radius). Key simulation results and the overall data analysis scheme developed to obtain the aerosol and cloud products are presented.
Technical note: Evaluation of a low-cost evaporation protection method for portable water samplers

Published: December 2020

Abstract. Automated field sampling of streamwater or precipitation for subsequent analysis of stable water isotopes (2H and 18O) is often conducted with off-the-shelf automated samplers. However, when water samples are stored in the field for days and weeks in open bottles inside autosamplers, their isotopic signatures can be altered by evaporative fractionation and vapor mixing. We therefore designed an evaporation protection method which modifies autosampler bottles using a syringe housing and silicone tube, and we tested whether this method reduces evaporative fractionation and vapor mixing in water samples stored for up to 24 d in 6712 full-size portable samplers (Teledyne ISCO, Lincoln, USA). Laboratory and field tests under different temperature and humidity conditions showed that water samples in bottles with evaporation protection were far less altered by evaporative fractionation and vapor mixing than samples in conventional open bottles. Our design is a cost-efficient approach to upgrade the 1 L sample bottles of the ISCO autosamplers, allowing secure water sample collection in warm and dry environments. Our design can be readily adapted (e.g., by using a different syringe size) to fit the bottles used by many other field autosamplers.
Serious Games for Stroke Telerehabilitation of Upper Limb - A Review for Future Research
Authors: Amorim Paula , Sousa Santos Beatriz , Dias Paulo , Silva Samuel , Martins Henrique 
Published: December 2020

Maintaining appropriate home rehabilitation programs after stroke, with proper adherence and remote monitoring is a challenging task. Virtual reality (VR) - based serious games could be a strategy used in telerehabilitation (TR) to engage patients in an enjoyable and therapeutic approach. The aim of this review was to analyze the background and quality of clinical research on this matter to guide future research. The review was based on research material obtained from PubMed and Cochrane up to April 2020 using the PRISMA approach. The use of VR serious games has shown evidence of efficacy on upper limb TR after stroke, but the evidence strength is still low due to a limited number of randomized controlled trials (RCT), a small number of participants involved, and heterogeneous samples. Although this is a promising strategy to complement conventional rehabilitation, further investigation is needed to strengthen the evidence of effectiveness and support the dissemination of the developed solutions.
Telehealth and Home Health Occupational Therapy: Clients’ Perceived Satisfaction With and Perception of Occupational Performance
Authors: Zahoransky Missi A. , Lape Jennifer E. 
Published: December 2020

Home health care agencies are restructuring service delivery models to address quality of care and client satisfaction while containing costs. New regulatory changes and the public health emergency as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic brought immediate need for alternative care models. Telehealth has been recognized as a feasible means to provide health care. This quasi-experimental pretest-posttest study examined the feasibility of performing occupational therapy telehealth visits as adjunct to on-site visits for homebound clients (N=9). The OASIS data collection set, Canadian Occupational Performance Measure, and a survey were used to collect data. This combination of visits resulted in clinically and statistically significant improvements in client perception of performance and satisfaction. Findings showed that participants felt this visit model met their needs and they would recommend to others. Results of this study warrant a larger study involving physical therapy and speech language pathology disciplines.
Older Emergency Department Patients: Does Baseline Care Status Matter?
Authors: Mowbray Fabrice Immanuel , Aryal Komal , Mercier Eric , Heckman George , Costa Andrew P. 
Published: December 2020

Background
Little is known about the prognostic differences between older emergency department (ED) patients who present with different formal support requirements in the community. We set out to describe and compare the patient profiles and patterns of health service use among three older ED cohorts: home care clients, nursing home residents and those receiving no formal support.
Methods
We conducted a secondary analysis of the Canadian cohort from the interRAI multinational ED study. Data were collected using interRAI ED contact assessment on patients 75 years of age and older (n = 2,274), in eight ED sites across Canada. A series of descriptive statistics were reported. Adjusted as­sociations were determined using logistic regression.
Results
Older adults receiving no formal support services were most stable. However, they were most likely to be hospitalized. Older home care clients were most likely to report depressive symptoms and distressed caregivers. They also had the great­est odds of frequent ED visitation post-discharge (OR=1.9; 95% CI=1.39–2.59). Older adults transferred from a nursing home were the frailest but had the lowest odds of hospital admission (OR=0.14; 95% CI=0.09–0.23).
Conclusion
We demonstrated the importance of inquiring about commu­nity-based formal support services and provide data to support decision-making in the ED.

Published: December 2020

Cerebrovascular accident (CVA) is neurological deficit condition caused by an acute focal injury of the central nervous system by cerebral infarction or intracerebral hemorrhage. CVA patients who do not reduce risk factors after the first attack have an 8.7 times higher risk of CVA recurrence. The effect of a recurrent CVA is six times greater than the risk of a first CVA in the general population of the same age and sex, and nearly half of them remain alive but are physically disabled. This case report illustrates the process of recurrent CVA and disability experienced by a 69-year-old Malay woman, a patient at a private hospital in West Kalimantan. The nursing strategy of two post-CVA physical rehabilitation exercise programs for patients during hospitalization will be explained according to the stages in nursing theory.

Published: December 2020

Men who have sex with men living with HIV (MSM-LWH) experience psychological and social issues, including depression, anxiety, fear of infecting others, frustration, and social isolation. They may also experience problems in their relationships due to a fear of social stigma, such as marital issues, family conflicts, a lack of family support, economic difficulties, and social rejection by the family. This research aimed to assess the relationship between HIV status disclosure and stress in MSM-LWH in Medan, Indonesia. Here, a cross-sectional design and the convenience sampling technique were used. A total of 176 respondents who were MSM, HIV positive, and residents of Medan City were included in this work. Data were collected by means of HIV Status Disclosure questionnaires and a Perceived Stress Scale (PSS). Overall, 70.9% respondents reported disclosing their status to others and approximately half revealed experiencing stress. Moreover, HIV status disclosure was significantly associated with stress (p= 0.025). This study reveals that HIV status disclosure may result in negative effects on MSMLWH, represent a barrier to medical treatment, and increase internal stress.

Role of Tax Revenue, Non-tax Revenue, and Foreign Aid to Increase the Size of Budget in Nepal
Authors: Dahal Arjun Kumar , Dhakal Ghanshyam , Thapa Khagendra Kumar 
Published: December 2020

Purpose: The purpose of the present study is to find the impact of tax revenue, non-tax revenue, and foreign aid to increase the size of the budget in Nepal.
Methods: This study is based on descriptive, analytical, and exploratory research designs. The Johnsen Co-integration Test, VECM, Wald Test, and Granger Causality Test are used to find long-run relation, impact, short-run causality, and granger cause between the pairs of variables.
Results: The tax revenue, non-tax revenue, foreign aid, and budget are co-integrated, or they have a long-run association ship. The result of VECM shows that tax revenue, non-tax revenue, foreign aid is nicely fitted, and they are jointly significant to explain the size of the budget in Nepal. Short-run causality was found between the size of budget and tax revenue and size of budget and foreign aid, but there was an absence of short-run causality between budget and non-tax revenue in Nepal. The granger cause was not found between the pair of variables.
Implications: It seems to increase the tax revenue and decrease the dependency on foreign aid.
Limitations: This study was based on the secondary data of 40 years from the fiscal year 1979/80 to 2018/19. Only three variables, tax revenue, non-tax revenue, and foreign aid, are considered the effecting factor of the budget size. Hence, further study is necessary by employing other tools and variables.
Originality: The author was not affected by the study and findings of others.

Field trials were carried out during 2018 and during 2019 dry season period at Federal College of Forestry and Mechanization Afaka Kaduna, located between latitude 10° 35”N and longitude 007° 21”E at altitude 644 m above sea level, to determine the influence of different types of organic manure and weeding frequencies on weed parameters and leafy yield of jute mallow (Corchorus olitorious). The experimental treatments consists of ten combinations of poultry manure + weed free, cow dung + weed free, goat dropping + weed free, poultry manure + weeding at 2 WAT, cow dung + weeding at 2 WAT, goat dropping + weeding at 2 WAT, poultry manure + weeding at 4 WAT, cow dung + weeding at 4 WAT, goat dropping + weeding at 4 WAT and no organic manure application + no weeding which were laid out in a randomize complete block design (RCBD) and replicated 3 times. The weed parameters and yield component observed and measured were common weeds that infested the plots, weed dry weight, weed control index, weed competition index and cumulative leaf yield at 2, 4, 6 WAT and at harvest. The result revealed that the plots were highly infested with three major weed species namely Synedralla nodiflora Gaertn, Gomphrena celosiodes and Cyperus esculentus. Highest weed completion index was obtained from poultry manure + weeding at 2 WAT while the least weed competition index was observed with application of cow dung + weeding at 4 WAT and goat dropping + weeding at 4 WAT respectively. The result also revealed that application of poultry manure + weed free plots had the highest mean cumulative yield value of 236 kg per hectare, closely followed by plots with application of poultry manure + weeding at 4 WAS (223 kg) per hectare compared to the control treatment that plots that have no organic manure + no weeding that had the least mean cumulative yield value of 111 kg per hectare. The study concludes that the use of poultry manure plus weed free gave the best yield of jute mallow compared to other types of organic manure and the control. It is therefore recommended that farmers in the study area should adopt the use of poultry manure plus weed free treatment to obtain bumper harvest from cultivation of jute mallow (Corchorus olitorious).
