COMÉRCIO, REVITALIZAÇÃO URBANA E SUSTENTABILIDADE: ENSINAMENTOS DA EXPERIÊNCIA JAPONESA
Authors: Balsas Carlos José Lopes 
Published: March 2016

<p>O comércio urbano nas cidades Japonesas tem passado por períodos de grande transformação com o surgimento recente de novos formatos comerciais e o declínio do pequeno comércio nas áreas centrais. As tendências de gestão urbana dos centros citadinos têm-se mostrado algo limitadas nos seus resultados. O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar a evolução das experiências de gestão e revitalização urbana mais recentes e identificar um conjunto de ilações que possam ser úteis a todos aqueles que ainda não conhecem a realidade Nipónica. O argumento principal é que as tendências de adoção de mecanismos e boas práticas estrangeiras, mais do que contribuírem para inverter situações de declínio urbano, têm-se mostrado algo inadequadas, devido sobretudo à ineficácia da articulação dos poderes públicos com a sociedade civil. Alternativas parecem existir em abordagens de coesão socioeconômica à escala local e em operações integradas de revitalização urbana sustentável.</p> <p class="TextodoResumo"> </p>
Tinta e pó. Fotografias em viagem
Authors: Belo Duarte 
Published: March 2016

<p>O trabalho a partir do qual se parte para estas palavras é de natureza fotográfica, num limbo entre o documental e o interpretativo, ou artístico. Essa fronteira pode ser, aliás, muito ténue. No entanto há alguns princípios documentais que se prendem com uma certa ânsia de cobrir um extenso território, todo o espaço português. No registo há duas faces, não podendo deixar de fugir a uma estetização do visível − é um apelo irresistível, talvez um convite ontológico. Este texto é uma reflexão sobre a prática da fotografia de paisagem, território, espaço. Cerca de 30 anos de recolhas fotográficas, mais de 1 350 000 de imagens feitas, 500 000 quilómetros percorridos em território português. Um número crescente de imagens dá origem a um arquivo vasto que se transforma numa entidade viva a partir do qual se estabelecem leituras renovadas, de revisitação, dos lugares fotografados no passado. A complexa teia de<br />relações entre a realidade espacial e a sua representação pela fotografia, procura, mais tarde, formas de materialização do pensamento em diversos suportes, em projetos expositivos e editoriais.</p>
El poder médico y la crisis de los vínculos de confianza en la medicina contemporánea
Authors: Azeredo Yuri Nishijima , Schraiber Lilia Blima 
Published: March 2016

<p>Basados en el contexto brasileño, en este artículo abordamos el poder médico en términos de los actuales conflictos en las relaciones intersubjetivas que el médico establece en su trabajo, conflictos considerados aquí como producto de una crisis de confianza vinculada a los recientes cambios históricos de la práctica médica. Al interpretar esos conflictos como cuestiones de orden ético y moral, recurrimos a las formulaciones teóricas de Hannah Arendt para analizar con mayor profundidad dicha crisis de confianza. De este modo, a partir de los conceptos arendtianos de “crisis”, “tradición”, “poder”, “autoridad” y “natalidad”, realizamos una lectura con nuevos significados de estos conflictos, que posibiliten futuros caminos y nuevas soluciones que eviten la nostalgia del pasado. </p>
Introducing The Accounting Equation With M&Ms
Authors: Scofield Barbara W. , Dye Wilma 
Published: March 2016

On the first day of Principles of Accounting classes, students learn the fundamental accounting equation from which all financial accounting practice emerge. The accounting equation is the criterion by which companies are valued and by which company performance is measured. This activity simplifies assets, liabilities, and owners equity to the representation of M&Ms in order to focus on overall patterns of company structure and provides further illustration using real public U.S. companies assets, liabilities, and owners equity.
PROFESORADO Y EGRESADOS ANTE LOS SISTEMAS DE EVALUACIÓN DEL ALUMNADO EN LA FORMACIÓN INICIAL DEL MAESTRO DE EDUCACIÓN INFANTIL
Authors: Martínez Mínguez Lurdes , Flores Aguilar Gonzalo 
Published: March 2016

Ante la necesidad de mejorar las guías de las asignaturas, se ha investigado para conocer el estado de los sistemas de evaluación del alumnado en las últimas promociones de la formación inicial del Maestro de Educación Infantil en la Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona. La metodología utilizada ha sido cualitativa, a través de grupos de discusión de docentes y graduados de las cuatro últimas promociones (2007-2011). Los resultados muestran percepciones similares respecto a la coherencia entre los diferentes apartados de los programas de las asignaturas y la transparencia sobre el tipo de evaluación a realizar; y apuntan percepciones diferentes respecto a los instrumentos utilizados, el feedback transmitido y las capacidades cognitivas más evaluadas. Se concluye que es esencial que en las guías docentes haya coherencia entre los diferentes apartados;el estudiante conozca la evaluación con prontitud, claridad y transparencia; se contemplen sistemas de auto y coevaluación; y el profesorado guie la conexión entre teoría y práctica de forma crítica y reflexiva.
SPIRITUALITY AMONG THE PROFESSORIATE AT A PRIVATE UNIVERSITY IN LIMA, PERU
Authors: Gootjes Kasel Dirk , Limaymanta-Álvarez César H. 
Published: March 2016

This study examined the professoriate view of spirituality at a private university in Lima, Peru. A two-phase, sequential mixed method was used. Two hundred forty professors completed Paloutzian and Ellison’s (1982) Spiritual Well-Being Scale (SWBS) for the quantitative phase. Five research questions exploring the professors’ gender, general area of teaching (humanities vs. sciences), highest university degree earned, age, and total years of university teaching experience were analyzed to determine if any significant differences existed within those variables. Two non-parametric tests were used: the Mann-Whitney U test and the Kruskal-Wallis Test. It was discovered only gender showed a significant difference. Five surveyed professors participated in the focus group phase exploring significant gender difference on the spiritual well-being scores. Five questions explored this difference between males and females. Four themes emerged: gender role enculturation, biological motherhood, stress, and internal strength.

Voluntary Corporate Social Responsibility Reporting: A Study of Early and Late Reporter Motivations and Outcomes
Authors: Bhimani Alnoor , Silvola Hanna , Sivabalan Prabhu 
Published: March 2016

ABSTRACT
Neo-institutional logics for the early adoption of innovations are often argued as more authentic than for late adopters. To what extent might this be so in relation to corporate social responsibility reporting (CSRR)? We specifically focus on neo-institutionalist perspectives with an emphasis on isomorphism (DiMaggio and Powell 1983) to illustrate alternative motivations and verify our hypotheses using a mixed-methods approach (survey data and field evidence from five organizations). We find that the rationale for early reporters entails a financial pragmatism that is absent in current debates surrounding corporate social responsibility (CSR). We also show that normative and coercive isomorphism interplay among early adopters to drive their adoption decision over time, and these facilitate the generation of different strategic postures to placate key external stakeholders. This contrasts with prior studies that have mainly argued for mimetic and normative isomorphism to dominate the decision to implement CSRR among adopters. Finally, we argue that late reporters choose not to engage earlier as (ironically) their strategic proximity to the phenomena being reported is intrinsically close, meaning most internal and external stakeholders assume the proper functioning of the phenomena being reported, and therefore do not demand it. This rationale for mimetic isomorphism is unique and its narrative more positive than that normally ascribed to it in the prior literature. Firms are subsequently less inclined to opportunistically validate or signal their sustainability ethos using formal reporting systems, and only do so superficially to engage in practices similar to other organizations in their industry or the broader economy as a norm.

Published: March 2016

Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) with and without polyps has a high impact on health-related quality of life (HRQL), but the difference in HRQL and symptom presentation between two clinical phenotypes of CRS has not been specifically evaluated before now. Objective To evaluate patterns of symptoms and HRQL disease-specific domains affected in patients with CRS by comparing differences between two clinical phenotypes, adjusted for demographics, major risk factors, comorbidities, current medical treatment, and previous surgery. Methods A group of 251 patients with CRS completed the visual analog scale (VAS) symptom severity score and the Sino-Nasal Outcome Test 22 (SNOT-22) questionnaire. Data sets were analyzed by using principal component analysis (PCA) to identify a set of symptom components, together with the items excluded from PCA, which were then analyzed for differences between patients with CRS with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) and patients with CRS without nasal polyps (CRSsNP). Results PCA of SNOT-22 items identified six components, three referred to CRS-specific symptoms termed “nasal”; “extranasal, rhinologic”; and “olfactory/cough”; and three referred to HRQL impairment termed “sleep disturbance,” “functional disturbance,” and “emotional disturbance.” Nasal obstruction, ear pain, ear fullness, and fatigue were excluded from PCA and treated as separate outcomes. Patients with CRSwNP had significantly worse nasal symptoms, olfactory/cough symptoms, and nasal obstruction. Patients with CRSsNP scored significantly worse with regard to fatigue and to sleep and functional disturbances. The PCA results for VAS scores identified three symptom components: pain, nasal symptoms, and pharyngeal symptoms. Patients with CRSwNP had significantly worse VAS nasal symptoms but less pronounced VAS pain symptoms than patients with CRSsNP. The total SNOT-22 score between the groups was not significantly different. Conclusion With controlling of covariates that may influence the severity of the disease, this study showed significant differences in symptom patterns and different aspects of HRQL impairment between patients with CRSwNP and patients with CRSsNP, however, with no difference in the total HRQL score.

Published: March 2016

Background Nasal septal deviation (NSD) is a very common deformity. Because it may induce chronic upper airway obstruction in the nose, clinicians encounter some patients who have concerns about whether this can be a risk factor for general health. However, the influence of NSD on general health has rarely been studied. Objective To determine associations between NSD, especially NSD with nasal obstructive symptom, and general health problems in an adult Korean population. Methods This nationwide study analyzed data from the Korea National Health and Nutritional Examination Survey, 2008–2009. NSD was evaluated by using a nasal endoscope, and a nasal obstructive symptom was assessed via individual interviews. The survey also investigated general health problems, such as medical comorbidity, mental health status, and quality of life. Medical conditions included neurocardiovascular, respiratory, metabolic, musculoskeletal, gastrointestinal, and malignant diseases. To eliminate the effect of combined nasal problems in otorhinolaryngology, subjects with rhinosinusitis and allergic rhinitis were excluded. This study focused on obstructive NSD, which is defined as an anatomic NSD with a chronic nasal obstructive symptom. Results We enrolled 8865 participants, and the prevalence of NSD was 44.8%. No general health problems showed a significant association with NSD. However, the prevalence of NSD with an obstructive symptom was 2.1%. Obstructive NSD had no association with all the general health problems, except asthma. A significant association was found between obstructive NSD and asthma (odds ratio 2.648 [95% confidence interval, 1.211–5.791]). Conclusion Among various general health problems, our study found that NSD was associated with asthma only when NSD was accompanied by a chronic nasal obstructive symptom.

Published: March 2016

Background Given the differences in pathophysiology between allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS) and other chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) subgroups, it remains unclear about whether these patients respond differently to a combination of surgical and medical treatments. Objective To evaluate differences in quality-of-life (QoL) outcomes for a cohort of patients who underwent endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) for CRS. Methods This retrospective review included patients with CRS who underwent ESS between 2010 and 2013. QoL was measured by using the 22-item Sino-Nasal Outcome Test (SNOT-22). Variables collected included baseline demographics, SNOT-22 scores before ESS and at 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after ESS. Groups tested were CRS with nasal polyposis, CRS without nasal polyposis (CRSsNP), and patients with AFRS. A linear mixed- effects regression model was used to calculate the adjusted mean QoL differences. Results Among the 250 patients included, 61.6% had CRS with nasal polyposis (n = 154), 28.8% had CRSsNP (n = 72), and 9.6% had AFRS (n = 24). Significant differences were seen in SNOT-22 scores between pre- and postoperative visits and between the etiologic subgroups (p < 0.001). Multivariate analysis revealed significantly greater improvement in QoL for patients with AFRS in comparison with those with CRSsNP at the 9-month follow-up (change in SNOT-22 score, 22.6 [95% confidence interval, 1.2–44.1]; p < 0.0) and the 12-month follow-up (change in SNOT-22 score, 20.2 [95% confidence interval, 0.5–39.9]; p < 0.04). Conclusions Patients with AFRS experienced a more-prolonged QoL benefit from surgical and targeted medical intervention compared with those with CRSsNP, which may reflect the severity of inflammation that they presented with compared with other CRS subtypes.

Published: March 2016

Background Hyaluronic acid (HA) plays a significant role in tissue repair of mucosal surfaces and, consequently, in surgical injury remodelling of nasal mucosa. Objective To assess the effect of high-molecular-weight HA administered by aerosol on the morphofunctional recovery of ciliated cells damaged by surgical trauma. Methods A single-blind, prospective, randomized trial was carried out with 94 patients who were randomly assigned, after endoscopic turbinoplasty, either to treatment with nasal saline solution irrigation (control group, n = 47) or to treatment with nasal douches based on high concentration (9 mg) and high-molecular-weight sodium hyaluronate (active treatment group, n = 47). All the patients were evaluated by using nasal fiberendoscopy, mucociliary transport time, nasal cytologic test, and a visual analog scale in terms of symptoms before and at 2 and 4 weeks after surgery. Results Visual analog scale values were significantly lower in the active treatment (AT) group at week 2 regarding each individual symptom. Mucociliary transport time was significantly reduced in patients in the AT group but only 1 month after surgery. Both the percentage of cellular impairments and the number of cells with hyperchromatic supranuclear stria showed significant improvements in the AT group in all postsurgery evaluations (p < 0.05). Conclusion Intranasal use of sodium hyaluronate in patients who underwent functional nasal surgery improved both mucociliary clearance and nasal mucosa regeneration due to a faster recovery of the impaired ciliated cells.
