Published: November 2024

Esta pesquisa foi realizada nos anos de 2017 e 2018. Neste contexto, o presente trabalho teve como área de estudo a praia de Ponta Negra, sendo este um dos cartões postais mais significante do Estado do Rio Grande do Norte, apresentando características físicas, sociais, econômicas e ambientais diversificadas. O objetivo deste, consistiu em valorar os serviços ambientais presentes, considerando a perspectiva dos Gestores e Não Gestores daquele local. A metodologia adotada incluiu levantamentos bibliográficos, produção de resenhas, workshops e palestras, confecção de carta imagem dos serviços ambientais identificados pelos respectivos grupos, trabalhos de campo com aplicação da metodologia de identificação dos serviços ambientais e os níveis de importância de cada um, por meio da cartografia social, assim como os trabalhos de laboratório e de gabinete, para reuniões e confecção dos respectivos mapas temáticos. Por fim, concluímos então que os serviços de regulação foram mais elencados pelos grupos de Gestores, e constatamos que os grupos de Não Gestores conseguiram indicar com precisão a localização dos serviços de provisão, principalmente, pelo fato de vivenciarem a dinâmica cotidiana da praia. Enquanto que os grupos Gestores, indicaram mais os serviços de regulação, os quais abrangem todo o recorte espacial da área em estudo.

Published: November 2024

O município de Princesa Isabel na Região Geográfica Intermediária de Patos enfrenta um processo de degradação ambiental em virtude das atividades socioeconômicas em sua maioria associadas a agricultura, potencializados pela ineficiência de instrumentos de gestão que permitam a otimização do ordenamento territorial. Dessa forma, a presente pesquisa teve como objetivo avaliar o uso e cobertura da terra no município de Princesa Isabel - PB em uma escala Têmporo-Espacial. O seu desenvolvimento se deu por meio de uma revisão bibliográfica, visitas a área de estudo, e na elaboração de mapas temáticos desenvolvidos no Software livre QGIS. Os mapas foram trabalhados em uma escala temporal, com utilização de imagens dos satélites LANDSAT 5 e 8 referentes aos anos de 1985, 1998, 2005, 2017 e 2020, escolhidas de acordo com a variação pluviométrica da região. Os resultados obtidos apresentam uma variação intensa no uso e cobertura do município ao longo dos anos, com a observação do crescimento das classes vegetativas nos últimos anos, fenômeno que pode estar associado ao desenvolvimento das atividades antrópicas e variação pluviométrica. Ademais, ficou evidente a prevalência da vegetação semidensa e densa em porções mais elevadas do município, ao passo que nas áreas mais planas observou-se o desenvolvimento intenso de atividades antrópicas, com predominância das classes rala e esparsa da vegetação, e solo exposto.

Published: November 2024

As tradições e os costumes das comunidades quilombolas são fundamentais para o entendimento do conceito de adaptabilidade humana e conservação da paisagem. Desse modo, este estudo tem como objetivo investigar as alterações da paisagem na Bacia Hidrográfica do Rio Turvo, no município de Barra do Turvo/SP, averiguando as formas e estratégias de adaptação criadas ou adotadas pelas comunidades quilombolas Cedro, Ribeirão Grande-Terra Seca e Pedra Preta-Paraíso no período de 1990 a 2020, visando a geração de informações que subsidiem na conservação dos componentes naturais da paisagem, no planejamento e na gestão ambiental municipal. Para isso, utilizou-se pesquisa bibliográfica e história de vida a fim de verificar a trajetória quilombola e sua relação com o lugar de vivência. As ferramentas geotecnológicas foram usadas para mensurar por meio da cobertura vegetal e dos usos da terra o Índice de Transformação Antrópica. Para a compreensão da dualidade sociedade-natureza, o estudo sobre o lugar e o modo de vida quilombola marcado pelo contexto histórico de origem africana, resistência e de lutas por acesso a terras e por reconhecimento são pontos fundamentais para diagnóstico do estado em que se encontra a paisagem nela estabelecida. O estado da paisagem de Pouco degradado, nos anos analisados implica nas medidas conservacionistas desenvolvidas pelos quilombolas para manter a diversidade local. Apesar da oscilação do índice, sem alterar o estado, torna-se necessário o desenvolvimento de medidas mitigadoras junto à sociedade local a fim de conservar a paisagem da bacia, contribuindo com a manutenção do bioma na região Vale do Ribeira.

Abstract
Asthma and sleep-related respiratory disorders represent common and well-characterized respiratory pathologies, yet ongoing debates persist regarding their association and potential bidirectional relationship. We performed a literature search encompassed PubMed and MEDLINE, exploring studies and publications on the overlap of sleep apnea and asthma, especially considering their common risk factor, obesity. Observational studies, including prospective and retrospective cohort studies, meta-analyses, and case reports, were analyzed. The available data indicate a bidirectional relationship between asthma and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), with each condition influencing the other. Asthma is identified as a risk factor for OSA, exacerbating its severity, while OSA has been linked to the development and progression of asthma.

Results
Obesity plays a critical role as an independent risk factor connecting asthma to OSA, emphasizing the intricate interplay between these conditions. A body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 kg/m2 is a central risk factor for OSA.

Conclusion
This research underscores the need for further exploration into the nuanced mechanisms linking obesity, obstructive sleep apnea, and asthma. Additionally, innovative interventions and treatment modalities tailored to address these interconnected health issues are imperative for personalized and targeted approaches in managing patients with obesity-related complications, ultimately improving overall health outcomes.
The Chinampa a Response to Climate Change: A Complex Model of Ancestral Wisdom for Urban Resilience
Authors: Varela María Guadalupe Valiñas , Martin Angélica Muñoz , Camargo Abel Efrain Cabrera 
Published: November 2024

Introduction: In the context of climate change, cities face critical challenges in water management and sustainability. One of the most ingenious and adaptive procedures that has endured throughout history is that of chinampas, which is a model of sustainable agriculture, and reflects a way of life intimately connected with nature.

Objective: Evaluate the possibility of incorporating the method based on the chinampas built by the Mexica culture in current cities to generate a complex model of urban resilience.

Theoretical Framework: In the theoretical framework there are theories such as ecological utopia, dystopia, stationary urbanism addressed by Fernando Gaja, smart cities by Tim Campbell and sustainability from the perspective of Francisco Javier Aceves, in addition to the agroecology of Nicholls and the socioecological systems of Towers as main axes of analysis.

Method: The methodology is based on complex systems from the approach of Edgar Morin and Rolando García, with stratification, and the application of different methods to form a complex unit that is a resilient city model with the use of chinampas.

Results and Discussion: The excessive construction, pollution, traffic and various problems show an urban crisis that was drying up the basin of the Valley of Mexico and there are currently few areas where bodies of water and chinampas such as Xochimilco are still conserved with socio-ecological systems and agroecology.

Research Implications: Urban resilience, which aims to recover from an impact caused by climate change to current cities, health, adequate habitability conditions, and natural resources, which is why searching for a resilient urban city model is a complex task.

Originality/Value: It is based on the recovery of ancestral knowledge to reestablish healthy cities of the 21st century from sustainability and bioclimatics since chinampas are used by the Mexica culture in pre-Hispanic times.
Equity in access to healthcare: an econometric analysis of the determinants of healthcare use in Senegal
Authors: DIOP Mayoro , FALL Ndiack , DIOUF Mamadou Fallou 
Published: November 2024

The right to health is at the heart of the World Health Organization’s Constitution, which states that 'the fundamental right of every human being is to enjoy the highest attainable standard of health'. The aim of this paper is to assess the level of equity in access to healthcare in three regions of Senegal. Our approach is based on the conceptual framework proposed by Andersen (1995), using a multilevel analysis. The data used come from the regional survey on poverty and universal health coverage (EPCMU) conducted in 2019 in the regions of Diourbel, Thieès and Tambacounda. Our results show that the structure of healthcare use is influenced by whether the head of household has been to school (75%) or not (63%). However, it remains identical according to the child's sex and the child's relationship to the head of household. There is also a higher use of healthcare among the richest and wealthiest (83% and 66%) than among the poorest or middle class (57% to 63%). In addition, having a medical history in the last three months rather than not having one is more likely to influence the use of healthcare. What's more, almost half (47%) of people who do not seek healthcare in a specialized institution do so because they self-medicate. We therefore recommend strengthening the policy of free health care and rethinking the strategy of access to care for vulnerable groups in order to achieve the sustainable development goals.
“UNSEEMLY WOMAN IN A SEEMING MAN”: UN ESTUDIO DE LA MASCULINIDAD COMO CONFLICTO EN ROMEO Y JULIETA
Authors: Romero-Otero Sara 
Published: November 2024

This article explores the interpretative possibilities offered by William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet regarding its manifestations of masculinity within the context of the early modern period through two of its characters: Romeo and Mercutio. The former goes from perceiving romantic love as a perpetuation of the familial order to regarding it, through his love for Juliet, as a way of questioning the very roots of the aforementioned order, whereas Mercutio, whose complexity as a character firmly settles him in an ambiguous standpoint, can be read as “the mask of what may be a repressed homoeroticism” (Bloom, 1998: 96). Their acts of speech — including the increasing simplification of Romeo’s once baroque language and Mercutio’s cartoonish obscenity — can be read as manifestations of a number of anxieties and pressures on masculinity that were inherent to the early modern period and, above anything else, as an act of defiance towards its more normative conceptions.

Published: November 2024

Introduction: In recent years, there has been a great deal of research on bilingual families. Therefore, the aim of this study is to understand the situation of Ukrainian families regarding the language skills of their and their sons and daughters. Methodology: Cross-sectional study with 50 Ukrainian families with children who are living in Madrid and they go to the Ukrainian school "Dyvosvit". We used an "ad hoc" questionnaire and a language proficiency questionnaire (Wiig et al., 2013). The average age of the children was 9.24 years with an SD (1.685), 38% boys and 62% girls. Results: Interesting sociodemographic data are obtained about the migratory situation of the families, as well as their sociolinguistic aspects. Regarding the linguistic development of childresn, it is similar to that of monolingual children with some differences at the phonological level, emission of mixed code, construction of sentences and in prosodic aspects, they present a high linguistic competence in both Spanish and Ukrainian in speaking, listening, reading and writing, although 46% presented difficulties in language development with the need for speech therapy intervention (42%). In addition, statistically significant differences have been obtained between some of the study variables and the language skills questionnaire (CCL). Conclusion: Although there are good language skills in Spanish and Ukrainian, we have found interesting sociolinguistic and linguistic elements that Ukrainian families face.

Authors: Peña Blasco Guillermo , Urriés López Fernando 
Published: November 2024

The holding of the Catalan self-determination referendum on 1 October 2017 was a historic event that has changed the socio-political landscape of Catalan and Spanish society. In this paper we try to understand the historical background that triggered this event, but with the novelty of developing a study on the effects that the ‘procés’ has caused in the medium term on investment and the population of Catalonia, for this we will collect these data on this region and we will apply a series of statistical tests such as the Student's t-test and the Mann-Whitney U-test to obtain a set of results, from which we can finally approach to deduce the relevance of the procés in the medium term in Catalan and Spanish society, politics and economy. This paper can be useful to policy-makers, economists, and those who would also like to learn about a different approach to the issue of the procés.
On the prerequisites for the state organization of epidemic control in Yakutia in the second half of the XVIII - early XIX century.
Authors: Borisov Andrian Afanas'evich 
Published: November 2024

The subject of the study is the activities of the state authorities of the Russian state in Yakutia, which became prerequisites for the organization of the regional epidemic control system in the region in the second half of the XVIII – early XIX century. The object of the study is the state anti-epidemic policy in its initial stage since the second half of the XVIII century. The author considers such aspects of the topic as specific historical prerequisites for the organization of local government measures against the spread of epidemics (smallpox, leprosy) in Yakutia. We are talking about the formation of special medical bodies of the regional administration (medical board, officials – doctors, staff doctors, doctors), the direction of medical personnel for the prevention (smallpox vaccination) and treatment of diseases of an epidemic nature, the allocation of funds for these activities. Special attention is paid to those government measures that served as prerequisites for subsequent stages in the history of epidemic control in the Yakutsk region. The main research methods were historical, comparative and typological methods, as well as the method of retrospection, when facts already known from sources about the phenomenon under study (anti-epidemic measures in the region) are considered with a look back at previous periods. The main conclusions of the study are: Firstly, organizationally, the territory of the Yakutsk district (province) became subordinate to a special regional medical body, the Medical Board of the Irkutsk Provincial Administration. Secondly, since the 1760s, doctors began to be sent to Yakutia to combat the emerging foci of epidemic diseases: leprosy and smallpox.Thirdly, initially highly qualified medical personnel arrived in Yakutia, who were trained not only in Russia, but also abroad.Fourth, during the period under review, the local population began to form positive ideas about the benefits of these activities, which was important for the success of the fight against epidemics in the future. The novelty of the research lies in the fact that the author for the first time drew attention to the study of the historical prerequisites for the organization of epidemic control in Yakutia in the XVIII century, the effectiveness of which became visible during the subsequent XIX century.

Testing the effectiveness of an algorithm for suppressing self-excited vibrations during intensive braking of a vehicle
Authors: Klimov A. V. 
Published: November 2024

Introduction. When the vehicle slows down, particularly on slippery surfaces, stability of the electromechanical drive system movement can be reduced, which is accompanied by high self-excited vibrations. These vibrations occur when the sliding speed increases and the friction force decreases. At the same time, the dynamic load on the drive system increases sharply, which can lead to its failure. Thus, the development of methods for suppressing self-excited vibrations is an urgent task.The purpose of the study is to test the operability and effectiveness of the method for suppressing self-excited vibrations in the electromechanical wheel drive system during braking with the use of methods of field experiments.Materials and methods. The study of the efficiency and effectiveness of the algorithm was based on field experiments.Results. Based on field experiment method, the efficiency and effectiveness of the algorithm for suppressing self-excited vibrations during deceleration has been determined, which allows for six-fold reduction in maximum amplitudes and 3-3,5-fold reduction in averaged amplitudes, while excluding changes in the moment sign during vehicle intense deceleration.Conclusion. The algorithm of suppressing self-excited vibrations can be recommended for application in developing vehicle deceleration control systems
Factors contributing to road traffic accidents in suburban areas
Authors: Pechatnova E. V. , Novikov I. A. , Kiryushin I. I. , Nagorny N. N. 
Published: November 2024

Introduction. Accidents in cities and outside populated areas have their own characteristics, which have been studied in various works. However, changes in the characteristics of traffic, pedestrian flows, and those of the street and road environment structure usually are not observed on crossing the city boundaries. Calculations show that it is in the suburban zone that the highest accident density is estimated, as well as a high proportion of accident-hazardous areas. Besides, there has been an increase in the suburbanization process, which leads to the growth of suburban areas. In this regard, assessing the impact of various factors on accidents within the suburban boundaries is an urgent research task. The aim of the study is to investigate the influence of environmental factors on accidents in suburban areas (the city of Barnaul is observed as an example). Materials and methods. In this study the suburban zone of Barnaul was considered as an example, the boundaries of the zone being defined according to the transport methodology. The empirical basis of the work was data on accidents that were recorded for the sections of federal highways within the boundaries of the suburban zone in the period from 2018 to 2023. For each accident from the sample, the period of day and weather conditions (air temperature, precipitation rate and wind speed) were determined. The relative risk theory was used to assess the influence of the factors selected. Conclusions. The study identified the distinctive features of accidents in suburban areas in comparison with those of suburban and urban road conditions. The influence of the group of key external factors was also assessed: periods of the day and weather conditions. Among the former, day, civil, navigational, astronomical twilight and night periods were distinguished. As for the latter, air temperature, precipitation rate and wind speed were analyzed. Limitations of the study/implications for future research. The results of the study can be used in further comprehensive research of accidents in suburban areas of large cities. Practical implications. The identified features of accidents and the dependence of the relative risk of accidents in the suburban area on external factors can be used for preventive measures development, as well as in the development of intelligent transport systems. Originality. For the first time, the dependences of the relative risk of accidents in the suburban area as a result of a group of key environmental factors (period of the day and weather conditions) were determined.
