AbstractBackgroundMaking decisions about your own life is a key aspect of independence, freedom, human rights and social justice. There are disabled people who, without support, would be assessed as incapable of making certain decisions but with the appropriate support are capable of making those decisions and so to not provide that support infringes their rights, undermines their autonomy and reinforces their exclusion from society. However, there is limited research evidence available about disabled people’s experiences of the range of approaches provided to support decision-making. This article will explore the experiences of four peer researchers who co-produced a research project on how people have, or have not been, supported to make their own decisions. Two of the peer researchers have experience of mental health problems and two are people with an intellectual disability. The article refers to peer research because its subject matter is the relevant lived experience of people. Peer research is therefore an approach within the broader areas of participatory research and co-production.MethodsThe peer researchers interviewed 21 people with mental health problems and 20 people with an intellectual disability to gain an in-depth understanding of their experiences and preferences for how decision-making should be supported. Peer researcher experiences at each stage of the study from design to analysis were explored using data collected from the peer researchers via blogs written at early stages of the study, discussions at team meetings as the fieldwork progressed and at a final workshop at the end of the study which gave the peer researchers the opportunity to focus on their overall reflections of being a peer researcher. The article also discusses motivations to undertake the peer research role, the process of co-production and the challenges negotiated during the study.ResultsThe peer researchers reported a number of positive effects of being involved in the research project which included improvements in skills and self-confidence.ConclusionThe peer researchers’ involvement challenged assumptions about the inability of people with an intellectual disability and/or mental health problems to participate proactively in a research project whilst also highlighting the importance of training for all team members.

AbstractContextHypoglycemia in people with diabetes is common, especially in those taking medications such as insulin and sulfonylureas (SU) that place them at higher risk. Hypoglycemia is associated with distress in those with diabetes and their families, medication nonadherence, and disruption of life and work, and it leads to costly emergency department visits and hospitalizations, morbidity, and mortality.ObjectiveTo review and update the diabetes-specific parts of the 2009 Evaluation and Management of Adult Hypoglycemic Disorders: Endocrine Society Clinical Practice Guideline and to address developing issues surrounding hypoglycemia in both adults and children living with diabetes. The overriding objectives are to reduce and prevent hypoglycemia.MethodsA multidisciplinary panel of clinician experts, together with a patient representative, and methodologists with expertise in evidence synthesis and guideline development, identified and prioritized 10 clinical questions related to hypoglycemia in people living with diabetes. Systematic reviews were conducted to address all the questions. The Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) methodology was used to assess the certainty of evidence and make recommendations.ResultsThe panel agreed on 10 questions specific to hypoglycemia risk and prevention in people with diabetes for which 10 recommendations were made. The guideline includes conditional recommendations for use of real-time continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and algorithm-driven insulin pumps in people with type 1 diabetes (T1D), use of CGM for outpatients with type 2 diabetes at high risk for hypoglycemia, use of long-acting and rapid-acting insulin analogs, and initiation of and continuation of CGM for select inpatient populations at high risk for hypoglycemia. Strong recommendations were made for structured diabetes education programs for those at high risk for hypoglycemia, use of glucagon preparations that do not require reconstitution vs those that do for managing severe outpatient hypoglycemia for adults and children, use of real-time CGM for individuals with T1D receiving multiple daily injections, and the use of inpatient glycemic management programs leveraging electronic health record data to reduce the risk of hypoglycemia.ConclusionThe recommendations are based on the consideration of critical outcomes as well as implementation factors such as feasibility and values and preferences of people with diabetes. These recommendations can be used to inform clinical practice and health care system improvement for this important complication for people living with diabetes.

Abstract

Context
Interventions targeting hypoglycemia in people with diabetes are important for improving quality of life and reducing morbidity and mortality.

Objective
To support development of the Endocrine Society Clinical Practice Guideline for management of individuals with diabetes at high risk for hypoglycemia.

Methods
We searched several databases for studies addressing 10 questions provided by a guideline panel from the Endocrine Society. Meta-analysis was conducted when feasible. The Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) methodology was used to assess certainty of evidence.

Results
We included 149 studies reporting on 43 344 patients. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) reduced episodes of severe hypoglycemia in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and reduced the proportion of patients with hypoglycemia (blood glucose [BG] levels &lt;54 mg/dL). There were no data on use of real-time CGM with algorithm-driven insulin pumps vs multiple daily injections with BG testing in people with T1D. CGM in outpatients with type 2 diabetes taking insulin and/or sulfonylureas reduced time spent with BG levels under 70 mg/dL. Initiation of CGM in hospitalized patients at high risk for hypoglycemia reduced episodes of hypoglycemia with BG levels lower than 54 mg/dL and time spent under 54 mg/dL. The proportion of patients with hypoglycemia with BG levels lower than 70 mg/dL and lower than 54 mg/dL detected by CGM was significantly higher than point-of-care BG testing. We found no data evaluating continuation of personal CGM in the hospital. Use of an inpatient computerized glycemic management program utilizing electronic health record data was associated with fewer patients with and episodes of hypoglycemia with BG levels lower than 70 mg/dL and fewer patients with severe hypoglycemia compared with standard care. Long-acting basal insulin analogs were associated with less hypoglycemia. Rapid-acting insulin analogs were associated with reduced severe hypoglycemia, though there were more patients with mild to moderate hypoglycemia. Structured diabetes education programs reduced episodes of severe hypoglycemia and time below 54 mg/dL in outpatients taking insulin. Glucagon formulations not requiring reconstitution were associated with longer times to recovery from hypoglycemia, although the proportion of patients who recovered completely from hypoglycemia was not different between the 2 groups.

Conclusion
This systematic review summarized the best available evidence about several interventions addressing hypoglycemia in people with diabetes. This evidence base will facilitate development of clinical practice guidelines by the Endocrine Society.

Published: December 2022

AbstractBackgroundPreoperative hyponatremia is prevalent in patients undergoing surgical procedures, but it is uncertain if hyponatremia will lead to increased risk of surgical mortality and morbidity.MethodsA systematic search of Medline (PubMed), Embase, and Cochrane Library from inception through July 2, 2021, was performed. Full-length articles that reported on the association between surgical outcomes among adults aged ≥18 years with documented preoperative hyponatremia were included.FindingsWe identified 32 observational studies comprising 1 301 346 participants. All studies had low risk of bias. When adjusted for covariates, patients with hyponatremia had significantly higher odds of developing major complications (defined as a composite measure of 9 major complications) compared with patients with normal sodium concentrations (adjusted odds ratio = 1.37; 95% CI, 1.23-1.53; I2 = 78%; N = 10). Additionally, patients with preoperative hyponatremia also significantly higher hazards of early mortality (&lt;90 days) compared with patients with normonatremia (adjusted hazard ratio = 1.27; 95% CI, 1.13-1.43; I2 = 97%; N = 10) after adjustment for covariates. Preoperative hyponatremia also had significant associations with respiratory, renal, and septic complications. In terms of prognostic performance, preoperative hyponatremia performed adequately in predicting major complications in surgical patients (area under the curve = 0.70; negative likelihood ratio, 0.90) with a specificity of 88% and a sensitivity of 25%.InterpretationOur meta-analysis suggests that preoperative hyponatremia is associated with poorer early mortality and major morbidity outcomes in surgical patients. Hyponatremia is also a specific prognosticator for major complications in surgical patients, reiterating its potential use as a clinical indicator of poor outcomes.
Another Look at Retrospection: The Backward Movement of the Narrative Unconscious
Authors: Ludwigs Marina 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
This essay proposes that understanding a text in narrative terms is based on the reverse causality of what it calls the narrative unconscious. The argument revisits literary and critical treatments of retrospection as a phenomenon of narrative temporality. It considers retrospection from a thematic angle, from the cognitive perspective of mind time, and from a reader-response motivation to fill gaps in the story, arriving at a necessity to postulate “invisible” reverse causality. The backward logic of the narrative unconscious, defined here as consolidation, works hand in hand with the conscious, forward-oriented operation of narrative thinking that appears to us as cumulative and anticipatory. In other words, narrative thinking or narrative processing oscillates between the forward direction of anticipation and backward direction of consolidation. Although we do not have access to the anti-intuitive workings of reverse causality, we can thematize this oscillation on a performative level as the interplay between the narrator's and narratee's perspectives, which are looked at collectively as the two foci of narrative consciousness. Finally, and while leaving the important question of practical application still open, the article considers the relevance of this supposition to the literary field of narratology and suggests that the concept of the narrative unconscious is a productive way to explain the aesthetic narrative effects of “oscillatory” and affective nature.
The Value of Open-Mindedness and Intellectual Humility for Interdisciplinary Research
Authors: Snow Nancy 
Published: December 2022

Academic research is increasingly centering on interdisciplinary work. Strong interdisciplinary research (SIR), involving researchers from very different fields, such as scientists and humanists, is often encouraged, if not required, by funding agencies. I argue that two intellectual virtues, open-mindedness and intellectual humility, are crucial for overcoming obstacles to SIR and achieving success. In part I, I provide a primer on intellectual virtue and the two virtues in question. In part II, I distinguish SIR from weak interdisciplinary research (WIR), which involves research teams from neighboring fields, such as physics and chemistry, and from disciplinary research (DR), which involves researchers from the same discipline. I also outline what counts as success in SIR, and explain why it’s more challenging to attain than in WIR and DR. In part III, I explain how both intellectual virtues are essential for achieving success in SIR and for overcoming obstacles that can arise in its pursuit.
On the Efficient Implementation of the Matrix Exponentiated Gradient Algorithm for Low-Rank Matrix Optimization
Authors: Garber Dan , Kaplan Atara 
Published: December 2022

Convex optimization over the spectrahedron, that is, the set of all real n × n positive semidefinite matrices with unit trace, has important applications in machine learning, signal processing, and statistics, mainly as a convex relaxation for optimization problems with low-rank matrices. It is also one of the most prominent examples in the theory of first order methods for convex optimization in which non-Euclidean methods can be significantly preferable to their Euclidean counterparts. In particular, the desirable choice is the matrix exponentiated gradient (MEG) method, which is based on the Bregman distance induced by the (negative) von Neumann entropy. Unfortunately, implementing MEG requires a full singular value decomposition (SVD) computation on each iteration, which is not scalable to high-dimensional problems. In this work, we propose efficient implementations of MEG, with both deterministic and stochastic gradients, which are tailored for optimization with low-rank matrices, and only use a single low-rank SVD computation on each iteration. We also provide efficiently computable certificates for the correct convergence of our methods. Mainly, we prove that, under a strict complementarity condition, the suggested methods converge from a warm-start initialization with similar rates to their full SVD–based counterparts. Finally, we bring empirical experiments that both support our theoretical findings and demonstrate the practical appeal of our methods.Funding: This work was supported by the Israel Science Foundation [Grant 1108/18].
Contribuição dialógica e polifônica ao discurso do Direito
Authors: Rosário Luana , Souza Valdicléa 
Published: December 2022

Neste trabalho, ressaltaram-se as contribuições dos estudos da linguagem bakhtinianos, sobretudo, do dialogismo e da polifonia, a fim de provocar uma releitura do discurso jurídico de matriz racionalista. Para tanto, fez-se mister uma compreensão dos mecanismos de produção e recepção do discurso do Direito à luz da filosofia da linguagem. A partir desta, pode-se notar como o monologismo foi ganhando um corpo discursivo robusto dentro das práticas jurídicas. Ademais, analisou-se o imbricamento entre linguagem, ideologia, poder e os mecanismos de silenciamento engendrados no discurso jurídico, a partir das discussões de Michel Foucault e Roland Barthes. Com vistas a evidenciar a importância da formulação de um programa jurídico científico que vise a um efetivo processo de democratização, abertura e reconhecimento de vozes equipolentes presentes nas relações jurídicas, fez-se uma breve exposição da teoria dialógica e polifônica de Mikhail Bakhtin. Para a concretização desta pesquisa, adotou-se a perspectiva metodológica da hermenêutica da compreensão aliada ao método da Análise do Discurso, de origem francesa. A intenção desse estudo é fomentar um debate acerca do sistema ideológico que sustenta as práticas jurídicas nos tempos hodiernos, buscando, assim, uma real transformação do discurso do Direito.
O BENEFÍCIO ASSISTENCIAL DE PRESTAÇÃO CONTINUADA E O PLENO DO SUPREMO TRIBUNAL FEDERAL

Published: December 2022

O estudo delineou o posicionamento do Pleno do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) no período de 2006 a 2016 no tocante ao Benefício Assistencial de Prestação Continuada (BPC). O foco da pesquisa foram a interpretação e o alcance dados pelo STF ao artigo 20 da Lei nº 8.742/1993, conhecida como Lei Orgânica de Assistência Social (LOAS) e como o Plenário da Corte Constitucional solucionou a tensão existente entre a efetivação dos direitos sociais, a tese da reserva do possível e o recorte de renda imposto como critério de elegibilidade ao benefício previsto pela LOAS.A metodologia utilizada foi à descritiva, realizando-se análise documental, por meio do estudo dos acórdãos proferidos pelo plenário do STF.Os resultados encontrados indicam a existência de 08 acórdãos acerca do tema, que permitiram concluir que o STF solucionou a tensão existente entre a efetivação dos direitos sociais e a tese da reserva do possível, ao considerar que o recorte de renda imposto como critério de elegibilidade ao benefício previsto pela LOAS é inconstitucional incider tantum, sem declaração de nulidade, e que devem prevalecer o princípio da dignidade da pessoa humana e os objetivos da Lei Maior sobre a tese da reserva do possível. 10.12957/rfd.2020.32799
AS RESERVAS NATURAIS URBANAS COMO MATERIALIZAÇÃO DA AGENDA 2030 E DA NOVA AGENDA URBANA
Authors: Jurado Pérez Jorge Luis 
Published: December 2022

O processo de expansão das cidades no mundo todo tem como consequência o surgimento de diversas problemáticas, sociais, econômicas e ambientais, cuja atenção é objeto de discussões pelos Estados no âmbito das Nações Unidas, onde foram elaborados planos de ação a longo tempo e cujo objetivo é o melhoramento da qualidade de vida das pessoas, a adaptação das cidades às mudanças climáticas, o uso sustentável dos recursos naturais e o crescimento planejado das mesmas. Assim, no presente artigo se planteia a constituição de reservas naturais urbanas (RNU’s) como mecanismo dos governos locais para o cumprimento de tais planos de ação, especialmente da Agenda 20130 em seu objetivo de desenvolvimento sustentável número onze e da Nova Agenda Urbana. 10.12957/rfd.2020.40386
SEGURANÇA JURÍDICA EM DIREITO TRIBUTÁRIO, MODULAÇÃO DE EFEITOS E O ARTIGO 927 DO CÓDIGO DE PROCESSO CIVIL (LEI 13.105/2015)
Authors: Teodorovicz Jeferson 
Published: December 2022

O presente trabalho busca compreender a modulação de efeitos em matéria tributária em relação ao sobreprincípio da segurança jurídica. A previsão legislativa da modulação de efeitos, antes primordialmente ligada ao controle concentrado de constitucionalidade, passa a ser gradualmente reconhecida no controle difuso, sobretudo em alteração de jurisprudência dominante e em sede de recursos repetitivos, passando também a ser incorporado no art.927, parágrafo 3ª do Novo CPC (Lei 13.105/2015). O estudo verificou, partindo de revisão bibliográfica, que os primeiros – e importantes – impactos dessa nova realidade legislativa já podem ser observados na realidade doutrinária e jurisprudencial brasileira. 10.12957/rfd.2020.41273
A COOPERAÇÃO JURÍDICA INTERNACIONAL COMO FERRAMENTA DE COMBATE À CORRUPÇÃO
Authors: De Sousa Rodolpho Freitas , Rocha Raphael Vieira da Fonseca 
Published: December 2022

A temática proposta em questão encontra sua gênese em problemas a serem desenvolvidos durante o curso do estudo e pesquisa. O questionamento que fica é: Como a cooperação jurídica internacional contribui para o combate a corrupção; quais são os mecanismos dessa cooperação para o diálogo com outros ordenamentos jurídicos; a operação lava jato está fazendo uso dessa cooperação; e, por fim, qual legado está sendo deixado com a cooperação dentro da operação lava jato? Diante dessas inquietações é possível, de antemão, lançar hipóteses que poderão orientar o leitor durante o curso da leitura e guiá-lo ao melhor entendimento, restando hipóteses como: A cooperação jurídica internacional possibilita um maior engajamento de operações da Polícia Federal e atos jurídicos no âmbito internacional; acordos entre o Brasil e diversos países já possibilitam o diálogo internacional; a operação lava jato faz uso dessa cooperação para buscar dinheiro fruto de evasão de divisas e na procura de fugitivos da justiça brasileira; a operação lava jato deixa um marco na justiça brasileira diante das mais recentes fases que desencadearam em processos envolvendo dinheiro público em associação à corrupção e a lavagem deles, por isso, o debate acerca dos institutos da Cooperação Jurídica Internacional poderá ser de grande valia para entender acordos entre países, assistências mútuas e afins, uma vez que tais acordos serviram como pedra angular para ações deflagradas que coibiram atos criminosos frutos de corrupção. Por isso, o presente trabalho perpassará pela análise de Tratados Internacionais, Convenções e acordos bilaterais, trilhando caminho pelo exame dos institutos da Cooperação Jurídica Internacional, pelo estudo da gênese da Operação Lava Jato e, por fim, pela aplicabilidade dos institutos da Cooperação na referida operação. A metodologia a ser empregada para o desenvolvimento deste artigo será dedutivo, associado também com pesquisa bibliográfica legislativa, análise de tratados bilaterais do Brasil, legislação comparada, pesquisa documental e análise estatística. A pesquisa acerca da Operação Lava Jato se dará através de análise bibliográfica de processos pertinentes, dados disponíveis por órgãos oficiais e demais meios dedutivos. 10.12957/rfd.2020.41282
A TRIBUTAÇÃO DO ISS NO FORNECIMENTO DE MÃO DE OBRA
Authors: Carneiro Amanda Maciel , Raupp Fabiano Maury 
Published: December 2022

O artigo objetiva analisar a tributação do Imposto sobre Serviços (ISS) no fornecimento de mão de obra, item 17.05 da lista de serviços da Lei Complementar Federal 116/2003. De competência municipal, o ISS é um dos três impostos privativos do Município, correspondendo à grande parte da arrecadação própria destes. A comum confusão entre o fornecimento de mão de obra e o agenciamento de mão de obra, item 17.04 da mesma lista, impacta diretamente na tributação dessas atividades, e consequentemente, na arrecadação municipal, eis que atuam sobre fatos geradores e bases de cálculo distintas. A análise de ambos os institutos, com suas similaridades, distanciamentos e características, permite a necessária diferenciação dos serviços e auxilia na correta tributação, servindo de base tanto para a auditoria fiscal quanto para os contribuintes, a fim de não se verem em dívida com o fisco quando em fiscalização, impactando positivamente na arrecadação tributária local e permitindo maior satisfação dos anseios sociais.
