olhar estrangeiro na viagem do Rio de Janeiro a Morro Velho
Authors: Ferreira Cristina , Pezzini Bachmann Martin 
Published: January 2023

O diplomata inglês Richard F. Burton publicou o livro Viagem do Rio de Janeiro a Morro Velho (1869), relato de sua passagem por Minas Gerais a partir de um exercício de seleção e criatividade vinculado a formulação de uma ideia de Brasil para o mundo europeu. Ao mobilizar a literatura de viagem como suporte que exprime sentidos e significados ao mundo social, conectamos as questões teórico-metodológicas que regem o objetivo deste artigo, para analisar as descrições de viagem de Richard Burton sobre a população brasileira, a partir da problematização da personagem. Apoiado no determinismo geográfico e nos princípios racistas, Burton ressaltou o desequilíbrio demográfico do país, pautado no eurocentrismo e na perspectiva de defasagem do Brasil causada pela “mestiçagem”, reforçando o argumento de que a solução seria a implementação de políticas imigratórias voltadas aos europeus como estratégia para a “civilização” da população brasileira.

Published: January 2023

This work on outdoor thermal comfort tends to highlight and affirm the contribution of vegetation to outdoor thermal comfort in a climatically hostile environment by being very hot and dry, this effect of creating a more forgiving microclimate in terms of thermal atmosphere was highlighted by simulations and in situ measurements, in a semi-open public space with a set of mature ficus retusa trees that we cut later, in this way, it gives us an unexpected and important opportunity for an intangible conclusion on this thermal contribution by means of a comparison, within the same space, in other words, with the same morphological characteristics but in two different states; case "A" with the presence of trees and case "B" after these same trees have been cut. This led us to deduce the influence of persistent vegetation on thermal comfort in such an environment; the measurements were made before and just after cutting the trees. The comfort index (UTCI) was calculated from microclimatic factors, themselves dependent on morphological indices, the measurements carried out highlighted the variations in the comfort index, that is, an indicator of the thermal comfort in both cases. In the end, this confirms the great influence of the trees shade on the outdoor thermal comfort in a public space located at the university campus of Biskra.

Published: January 2023

Purpose: Public policy making process in the transport sector in Nairobi City County, Kenya faces a myriad of challenges as reflected in the high failure rate of most of the policies. Often ignored are the characteristics of individual actors within a policy network which can have a major impact on the public policy process by shaping how the policy is framed, negotiated, and implemented. Considering the increasing challenges in the policy making process and considering the importance of individual actor’s characteristics in this process, this study sought to establish the effect of policy network individual actors’ characteristics on policy process outcomes in the road transport sector in Nairobi City County, Kenya.
Methodology: The study adopted a descriptive research design. The target population of the study was 470 policy actors in the road transport sector within Nairobi City County out of which 407 were purposefully sampled to respond to the questionnaire and 45 were sampled to participate in focused group discussions as well as key informant interviews. A mixed methodology was adopted whereby both quantitative and qualitative data was collected through structured questionnaires, key informant interviews and focused group discussions. The quantitative data was analyzed through descriptive statistics that is mean, frequencies and percentages as well as regression analysis. On the other hand, qualitative data was analysed through thematic analysis and reported in a narrative format.
Findings: The study established that characteristics of individual actors within a policy network can significantly influence public policy processes outcomes by shaping how the policy is framed, how it is negotiated, and how it is implemented.
Recommendations: The study recommends a need to increase the influence of individual actors within the policy network by providing them with more opportunities, resources and necessary support to engage in decision-making processes. There is also a need for involved stakeholders in the policy making process in the transport sector in Nairobi City County to create a platform for individual actors to share their opinions, experiences, and perspectives on relevant policy issues. The study further recommends the involved stakeholders in the policy making process in the transport sector in Nairobi City County to provide resources and support to individual actors in order to strengthen their capacity and knowledge in policy making processes.

Authors: Onuoha Sam C. , Chukwuma C. C. 
Published: January 2023

Purpose: Bonny light crude oil has been used in folkloric medicine in treating different diseases in combination with Medicinal plants. Cnidoscolus aconitifolius has been reported to possess medicinal properties. This study is aimed at determining experimentally if the acclaimed benefits are true.
Methodology: This study investigated the biochemical effect of Bonny light crude oil and Cnidoscolus aconitifolius leaf extract orally administered to albino rats at different concentrations. In this study, albino rats were orally exposed to different concentrations of Bonny light oil (BLCO) and Cnidoscolus aconitifolius leaf extract individually and in combination.
Findings: The results after 21days of exposure revealed that BLCO and Cnidoscolus aconitifolius induction at concentrations of 250mg/kgb.wt and 500mg/kgb.wt could induce physiological damage within 21days. This is revealed by the results obtained from the histological analysis of the testes and the detectable heavy metal concentration in the blood samples.
Unique Contribution to Theory, Policy and Practice: As a result, the induction of this leaf extract and BLCO at concentrations of 250mgf/kgb.wt and 500mg/kgb.wt consecutively for 21days may be injurious to health as revealed by the results from the histological analysis. Therefore, it is recommended that the use of this plant leaf extract and BLCO in folkloric medicine at concentrations similar to the ones used in this research should be avoided.

Authors: CADTH  
Published: January 2023

CADTH recommends that Kimmtrak be reimbursed by public drug plans for the treatment of unresectable or metastatic uveal melanoma (mUM) if certain conditions are met.
Kimmtrak should only be covered to treat adults with uveal melanoma whose cancer cannot be removed by surgery or has spread and who have tested positive for the HLA-A*02:01 gene. Patients receiving Kimmtrak should be in relatively good health (i.e., have a good performance status, as determined by a specialist). Cancer in central nervous system should either be controlled or that there be no spread of cancer to the brain at all.
Kimmtrak should only be reimbursed if prescribed by a specialist with expertise in managing uveal melanoma and cytokine release syndrome, and the cost of Kimmtrak is reduced.

Fort de ce constat, de l’influence la mondialisation et la globalisation des activités de la nouvelle percée de la technologie dans tous les domaines de la vie ; commerce, finance, santé, infrastructure, bureautique, informatique, domotique, monétique,… a attiré notre attention. La technologie permet aux particuliers et aux entreprises à effectuer des transactions plus aisées et de façon instantanées, qui répond au principe tell que « le temps, c’est de l’argent » vient d’être réalisé en réduisant au même moment le temps et l’espace dans les opérations d’affaires.
Les agents ne connaissant plus des frontières tant des pays, des marchés ou même de places boursières. Tout le monde (le producteur comme le consommateur) peut communiquer, transférer, ou payer et conclure un marché instantanément avec son partenaire partout où ils se retrouveraient via les outils communicationnels misent à leur disposition grâce la Technologie de l’Information et de la Communication (TIC).
C’est la Technologie d’Information et de la Communication (TIC) qui causeraient une augmentation de la croissance économique via deux effets ; d’un côté, les Technologie d’Information et de la Communication sont à fois complémentaire au capital humain et substituts pour une partie de la main d’œuvre. On obtient un gain de productivité, ce qui contribue à la croissance. D’un autre côté, la hausse de la productivité ne s’accompagne pas directement d’une augmentation des salaires.

Published: January 2023

Este trabalho tem como foco as reflexões que abarcam o debate de gênero e sexualidade na formação de professores para a escola do campo. Nosso foco central, embora não explícito, são os processos de subalternização e não reconhecimento do feminino, da forma como o gênero está subalternizado nas dinâmicas campesinas. A partir desse recorte, dentre outros, nossa busca é por contribuir nos debates referentes as questões que envolvem a subjetividade feminina campesina, suas identidades e seu não reconhecimento. Para isso, buscamos na história leituras possíveis sobre o porquê de a mulher, em pleno século XXI, ainda estar sendo colocada em lugar de demérito em relação ao homem. É decorrente de um projeto registrado como proposta de pesquisa na Universidade Federal de Goiás – Câmpus Goiás, que temos buscado levantar dados que evidenciem a relação de poder estabelecida nos espaços citados para melhor entender o preconceito e as dinâmicas sociais no que tange ao sujeito campesino. Ainda, tais estudos têm nos possibilitado adensar e qualificar reflexões necessárias a um curso de Licenciatura em Educação do Campo – LEdoC, acerca do reconhecimento e da importância das questões de sexualidade e gênero na formação em questão.
