description: Migrants with dementia living in residential care may be at risk of disengagement. To synthesize research relating to the meaningful engagement of migrants with dementia who are living in residential care. Mixed studies systematic review following PRISMA guidelines. Nine electronic databases were searched for relevant studies. Studies were eligible for inclusion if they reported original research relating to meaningful engagement of migrants with dementia living in residential aged care and were published in English. Two independent reviewers screened the title and abstracts, full texts of eligible studies and conducted a quality appraisal of included texts. A convergent qualitative synthesis approach was used. From 1460 articles, 14 papers representing 12 studies were included. Facilitators of meaningful engagement included: the presence of cultural artefacts in the care environment, the use of multimodal communication and a shared but flexible understanding of residents’ culture. Barriers were the absence of a common language and a task-orientated approach to care. Migrants with dementia who are living in residential care are at increased risk of disengagement. Our review highlights the need for culturally congruent residential care to go beyond issues of language and to consider how occupations can be tailored to support ongoing participation and engagement.
GAIA: o «Compromisso pela Casa Comum e pela Ética do Cuidado», ou como as Religiões se “re-ligam” à Ecologia e ao Humano

description: Atentos ao mundo que nos rodeia, urge definir e fomentar uma via pragmática no que respeita ao chamado diálogo entre e com as religiões. Dificilmente se superará o quadro das últimas décadas em que a via do mínimo denominador comum, teológico e antropológico, não deu grandes resultados, conduzindo apenas a um patamar onde imperou o “politicamente correcto”, pautado por eventos centrados em algum exotismo e na mediatização das lideranças.

description: We describe the calculation of the stochastically heated dust emission using the 3D ray-tracing dust radiative transfer code DART-Ray, which is designed to solve the dust radiative transfer problem for galaxies with arbitrary geometries. In order to reduce the time required to derive the non-equilibrium dust emission spectra from each volume element within a model, we implemented an adaptive SED library approach, which we tested for the case of axisymmetric galaxy geometries. To show the capabilities of the code, we applied DART-Ray to a high-resolution N-body+SPH galaxy simulation to predict the appearance of the simulated galaxy at a set of wavelengths from the UV to the sub-mm. We analyse the results to determine the effect of dust on the observed radial and vertical profiles of the stellar emission as well as on the attenuation and scattering of light from the constituent stellar populations. We also quantify the proportion of dust re-radiated stellar light powered by young and old stellar populations, both bolometrically and as a function of infrared wavelength.

description: In this paper, we present a new decomposition algorithm for solving large-scale multistage stochastic programs (MSSPs) with endogenous uncertainties. Instead of dualizing all the initial non-anticipativity constraints (NACs) and removing all the conditional NACs to decompose the problem into scenario subproblems, the basic idea relies on keeping a subset of NACs as explicit constraints in the scenario group subproblems while dualizing or relaxing the rest of the NACs. It is proved that the algorithm provides a dual bound that is at least as tight as the standard approach. Numerical results for process network examples and oilfield development planning problem are presented to illustrate that the proposed decomposition approach yields significant improvement in the dual bound at the root node and reduction in the total computational expense for closing the gap.

Rock Art

description: The Côa Valley, considered “the most important site with open-air Paleolithic rock art”, was inscribed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site in 1998. Although the rock art of the Côa Valley has been intensively studied in the last 23 years by the Archaeological Park of the Côa Valley (PAVC), the Iron Age is a chronological period where there is a greater deficit of study and knowledge. The work we will present was developed under the RARAA project, funded by the Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia (FCT) “COA / OVD / 0097 / 2019- Rock Art Open Access Repository”, aiming to study the Iron Age rock art of the Côa Valley and the accessibility of data in an open access repository, describing the methodology used and seeking to implement best practices for organization, recording, storage and sharing of data. In this presentation we will give particular emphasis to the FAIR principles adopted, seeking consensus, both in the structure and in the attributes and vocabularies used, serving not only the purpose of safeguarding the data, but also its management, study and sharing. The study and interpretation of archaeological sites and rock art depend heavily on access to existing data, namely to seek parallels and cross-reference data for more comprehensive studies. Thus, we will present the RARAA project as a case study, making available in an open-access online data repository, metadata and paradata, 3D models, photos, vector drawings and maps of Iron Age rock art in the Côa valley.

description: Based on occupational storytelling/story-making, this study developed Colour Narrative, a program to promote the health and well-being of community-dwelling older adults. To conduct a pilot study to implement Colour Narrative in a heavy snowfall area of Japan and verify the participants’ experiences in the program and its effectiveness. An advanced mixed methods design was used. The participants were 22 members of a community-based social group for older adults. Quantitative measurements of life functions and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) were conducted before and after the intervention. Qualitative data were collected from focus group interviews regarding the participants’ experiences during the intervention process. Lastly, both datasets were integrated. The harsh living conditions due to heavy snowfall reduced the participants’ overall activity. In this environment, Colour Narrative encouraged them to control their lives more in their own ways and enhanced their HRQOL. The core of their experiences was ‘negotiating occupations’. This negotiation was a highly intellectual task that significantly improved their cognitive function. The structure and content of Colour Narrative were found to be useful and feasible for community-dwelling older adults. Colour Narrative offers a new occupation-based intervention strategy for preventive occupational therapy.
Projeto “Portugal” e a relação Estado-Religião à luz da metáfora conjugal
Creators: name: Oliveira, Rui
Publisher: name: Revista Lusófona de Ciência das Religiões
Year: 2019

description: O presente trabalho surge como proposta modelar de interpretação, à luz da metáfora conjugal, das relações entre as duas instituições – o Estado/Monarca e a Religião/Igreja – na prossecução dos seus objetivos sociais e políticos em torno do projeto «Portugal». Os documentos de investigação disponíveis permitem observar, nas relações institucionais, comportamentos de grande similitude, ou flagrantemente próximos, com os que se verificam no quadro das relações humanas de conjugalidade, pelo que o uso da metáfora conjugal se tornou um privilegiado e útil instrumento na análise dessas relações. Partindo do âmbito das generalidades contextuais e tomando como fundo a evolução histórica, com seus aportes e ajustes, tanto as da realidade histórica como as que a metáfora oferecia, foi encetada e progredindo a investigação. As similitudes cotejadas e sua demonstração tiveram mais em conta os resultados finais de cada situação ou período do que propriamente as razões que estiveram na origem dos diversos comportamentos, porquanto também eles foram gerados por diversa motivação e foram de índole e natureza distinta. Os primeiros indícios do projeto identitário do País dos Portugueses em que se veem envolvidos clérigos e nobres do Condado Portucalense transmitem uma atmosfera de cumplicidades de afetos que só encontram paralelo no aflorar dos primeiros ardores do enamoramento humano. A conjugação dos esforços levou à concretização de uma aliança de vidas em que foi posto em comum tudo o que era das partes (bens materiais e espirituais) para a prossecução do único objetivo: a construção de um País como uma união conjugal monogâmica, entre a Religião (Igreja católica) e o Estado. A partir de então, numa sucessão de bons e de maus momentos, como sucede em qualquer união conjugal, houve situações de alguma fricção, houve amuos, houve reconciliações e também houve muito desgaste que, um dia, ditou uma rutura com separação e divórcio. Posteriormente, deu-se a reaproximação e estabeleceu-se uma relação diferente, comparável à união de facto entre pares humanos mas com separação de bens, projetos diferenciados para o País, embora já numa condição de poligamia em tempos que são de convivência confessional diversificada, pois são várias, atualmente, as confissões religiosas professadas pelos Portugueses.

Razão, Intuição e «Orientalismos»

Year: 2019

description: Desde a classificação do Atomismo de Leucipo e Demócrito como «forma primitiva de cientificidade» (muito do agrado de self-made historiadores da dita) até ao Positivismo, à la Ernest Mach (que rejeitava a teoria atómica em nome dessa mesma corrente filosófica), modernidade e contemporaneidade têm-se excedido na tentativa de subjugar a intuição à razão. O que neste texto se procura mostrar, ainda que indicativamente, é como o estudo dos fundamentos de cosmos e vida tem, por vias escassamente divulgadas mas detectáveis, recorrido a filosofias orientais (vulgo, entendidas como «místicas»), em tentativa de robustecimento do contributo da intuição para a desvelação de fenómenos naturais (ou seja, da Natureza). Releva-se o facto de a matemática, inigualável instrumento de extracção de conclusões (aliás, de outra forma inatingíveis), designada mas não exclusivamente no âmbito da investigação fundamental em ciências exactas, ser estruturalmente neutra em matéria de «veracidade» das conclusões que faculta. Isto é, apenas assegura o rigor do processo dedutivo, cabendo a garantia de fiabilidade do produto final à «qualidade» dos axiomas de partida. Por fim, apontam-se indícios de que a transcendência começa a superar, em círculos académicos europeus, tão questionáveis quanto profundamente instalados dogmatismos preconceituosos.

UV driven evaporation of close-in planets: energy-limited; recombination-limited and photon-limited flows

description: We have investigated the evaporation of close-in exoplanets irradiated by ionizing photons. We find that the properties of the flow are controlled by the ratio of the recombination time to the flow time-scale. When the recombination time-scale is short compared to the flow time-scale the the flow is in approximate local ionization equilibrium with a thin ionization front, where the photon mean free path is short compared to flow scale. In this "recombination limited" flow the mass-loss scales roughly with the square root of the incident flux. When the recombination time is long compared to the flow time-scale the ionization front becomes thick and encompasses the entire flow, with the mass-loss rate scaling linearly with flux. If the planet's potential is deep the flow is approximately "energy-limited"; however, if the planet's potential is shallow we identify a new limiting mass-loss regime, which we term "photon-limited". In this scenario the mass-loss rate is purely limited by the incoming flux of ionizing photons. We have developed a new numerical approach that takes into account the frequency dependence of the incoming ionizing spectrum and performed a large suite of 1D simulations to characterise UV driven mass-loss around low mass planets. We find the flow is "recombination-limited" at high fluxes but becomes "energy-limited" at low fluxes; however, the transition is broad occurring over several order of magnitude in flux. Finally, we point out the transitions between the different flow types does not occur at a single flux value, but depends on the planet's properties, with higher mass planets becoming "energy-limited" at lower fluxes.

description: O estudo objetivou analisar o desenvolvimento neuropsicomotor, segundo o Teste de Triagem do Desenvolvimento Denver II, em crianças nascidas prematuras e com baixo peso acompanhadas nas Unidades de Saúde da Família. Realizou-se um estudo do tipo transversal com delineamento do tipo caso controle numa amostra de 85 crianças, distribuídas em grupo caso (47) e controle (38). Para análise dos dados utilizou-se tabelas de distribuição de frequências, testes de Qui-quadrado e Teste Exato de Fisher e análise de regressão logística. A análise individual mostrou associação significativa entre os grupos e a idade gestacional, peso ao nascer, tipo de parto, internação, local da residência, renda do pai, idade e escolaridade da mãe. Ao interpretar os itens individuais nas quatro áreas do desenvolvimento (pessoal-social, motor-fino-adaptativo, linguagem e motor grosso), observou-se um maior percentual de alterações no grupo caso, porém sem diferença significativa entre os grupos. Já na interpretação do teste inteiro, 14,1% das crianças avaliadas apresentaram resultado questionável, sendo 21,3% das crianças do grupo caso e 5,3% do grupo controle. A análise de regressão logística múltipla evidenciou que apenas a internação da criança e a escolaridade da mãe apresentaram associação significativa com o desenvolvimento neuropsicomotor. Crianças que foram internadas e de mães com escolaridade mais baixa têm 18,52 e 8,57 vezes mais chance, respectivamente, de apresentar resultado questionável no Denver II.

description: Efficient supercontinuum generation (SCG) requires excitation of solitons at the pump laser wavelength. Quadratic nonlinear waveguides may support an effective self-defocusing nonlinearity so solitons can directly be generated at common ultrafast laser wavelengths without any waveguide dispersion engineering. We here experimentally demonstrate efficient SCG in a standard lithium niobate (LN) waveguide without using quasi-phase matching (QPM). By using femtosecond pumps with wavelengths in the $1.25-1.5 μ\rm m$ range, where LN has normal dispersion and thus supports self-defocusing solitons, octave-spanning SCG is observed. An optimized mid-IR waveguide design is expected to support even broader spectra. The QPM-free design reduces production complexity, allows longer waveguides, limits undesired spectral resonances and effectively allows using nonlinear crystals where QPM is inefficient or impossible. This result is important for mid-IR SCG, where QPM-free self-defocusing waveguides in common mid-IR nonlinear crystals can support solitons directly at mid-IR ultrafast laser wavelengths, where these waveguides have normal dispersion.

description: Abstract: "This paper presents a systematic procedure for performing the fewest structural modifications in the retrofit of existing heat exchanger networks. An MILP assignment- transshipment model is proposed which has as objective to minimize first, matches that require new units and then matches that require reassignment of existing units. The special structure of this problem implies that its computational effort is similar to the MILP transshipment model for grassroots networks. The application of the proposed model is illustrated with two example problems."

description: Como resultado de incompreensão da complexidade e abrangência dos sistemas de vida (nesciência eco-sistémica) vivemos hoje em um mundo global que acolhe e implementa os valores de um hedonismo materialista, expressos em modos de vida consumistas onde imperam a dualidade, a competição, o extrativismo e produtivismo, assim como o stress, burnout e depressão. Sofremos os resultados da implementação de um monismo materialista (dito) científico associado a um dualismo cartesiano que, em conjunto, decidem a vida de milhares de milhões de humanos assim como de toda a Ecosfera. Este materialismo - quando plasmado em conhecimento científico e saber prático tecnológico - tem cooperado também para um quadro mais alargado de problemas. Como poderemos implementar compromissos sérios pela não-violência e altruísmo abrangente, amor pela natureza e gosto pela inquirição aberta e franca ao invés de distração crónica? Na verdade, são os olhares profundos e inclusivos que permitem filosofias de vida verdadeiramente humanas (ecosofias). Instituir uma harmonia ecológica, ou seja, uma verdadeira epistéme das interações que tende a manter ciclos e equilíbrios, porque não-dual mas sim ecocentrada, eis o que mais importa. Este texto, partindo destas preocupações, de modo sintético, levanta questões, propõe reflexões e aponta para soluções éticas extraídas de um olhar sobre o Dharma do Buda (Budismo).

description: Abstract: "This research outlines a design methodology for recording the intent behind decisions in a design process. The design problem isdescribed as a conjunction of design objectives, which are high level descriptions of the requirements that the design artifact must meet (functional, financial, constructability, maintainability, disposability etc.). We use a combination of informal text, first-order predicate logic and arithmetic constraints to express design objectives. Importance can be associated with objectives. In this design process, the objectives can be addressed in some order by focussing on a subset of them. Objectives are achieved by a process of refinement which may result in a set of alternative bindings for the design variables involved, or, in alternative decompositions for the objectives.Assumptions may be made in the generation of the alternatives. The alternatives are evaluated with respect to other objectives and one alternative is selected. The design is completed when the current set of objectives is satisfied. Thus, the designer does not manipulate the form of the artifact itself; rather, the designer manipulates the objectives and selects alternatives, thereby revealing the intent behind the decisions. We also describe a representation for the record of this design process. The record can be used to identify the objectives and assumptions responsible for design decisions and for identifying the objectives and assumptions affected when decisions are modified. Weare developing an interactive computer-based environment in the domain of residential and small office buildings to demonstrate this approach."

Em todos os textos perpassa uma teologia retórico-humanista, que ele partilha com muitos dos pensadores do seu tempo, e com os seus confrades em particular. O inovador desta teologia é que ela faz também recurso a «novas» fontes (a reflexão histórica e a espiritualidade jesuíta) e a novas inspirações (próprias de Vieira) que a tornam única e merecedora de um aprofundamento que ainda não foi feito.

Vortex cycles at the inner edges of dead zones in protoplanetary disks

description: In protoplanetary disks, the inner boundary between the turbulent and laminar regions is a promising site for planet formation because solids may become trapped at the interface itself or in vortices generated by the Rossby wave instability. The disk thermodynamics and the turbulent dynamics at that location are entwined because of the importance of turbulent dissipation on thermal ionization and, conversely, of thermal ionisation on the turbulence. However, most previous work has neglected this dynamical coupling and have thus missed a key element of the physics in this region. In this paper, we aim to determine how the the interplay between ionization and turbulence impacts on the formation and evolution of vortices at the interface between the active and the dead zones. Using the Godunov code RAMSES, we have performed a 3D magnetohydrodynamic global numerical simulation of a cylindrical model of an MRI--turbulent protoplanetary disk, including thermodynamical effects as well as a temperature-dependant resistivity. The comparison with an analogous 2D viscous simulation has been extensively used to help identify the relevant physical processes and the disk's long-term evolution. We find that a vortex formed at the interface, due to Rossby wave instability, migrates inward and penetrates the active zone where it is destroyed by turbulent motions. Subsequently, a new vortex emerges a few tens of orbits later at the interface, and the new vortex migrates inward too. The sequence repeats itself, resulting in cycles of vortex formation, migration, and disruption. This behavior is successfully reproduced using two different codes. In this paper, we characterize this vortex life cycle and discuss its implications for planet formation at the dead/active interface. Our simulations highlight the importance of thermodynamical processes for the vortex evolution at the dead zone inner edge.

description: FFT-based solvers introduced in the 1990s for the numerical homogenization of heterogeneous elastic materials have been extended to a wide range of physical properties. In parallel, alternative algorithms and modified discrete Green operators have been proposed to accelerate the method and/or improve the description of the local fields. In this short note, filtering material properties is proposed as a third complementary way to improve FFT-based methods. It is evidenced from numerical experiments that, the grid refinement and consequently the computation time and/or the spurious oscillations observed on local fields can be significantly reduced. In addition, while the Voigt and Reuss filters can improve or deteriorate the method depending on the microstructure, a stiff inclusion within a compliant matrix or the reverse, the proposed "2-layers" filter is efficient in both situations. The study is proposed in the context of linear elasticity but similar results are expected in a different physical context (thermal, electrical...).

description: A Igreja Católica, através ora do próprio Vaticano, ora por meio de vários movimentos de cunho exclusivista, tende, nos últimos anos, a uma afirmação de sua fé de forma mais tradicional, no sentido de resgatar teologias, doutrinas e costumes que a pronunciem com maior vigor diante do campo religioso cada vez mais plural em que o mundo se encontra, e em que a própria Igreja Católica se encontra, internamente. Este movimento de acentuar doutrinas católicas – às vezes de forma intransigente ou pouco dialogal – com o mundo moderno representaria um rosto cada vez mais exclusivista do catolicismo quanto às questões doutrinais, mostrando a Igreja como a única – ou máxima – detentora da verdade religiosa. Este artigo pretende refletir sobre tal postura recorrendo às ciências sociais e, ao final, perguntando se é algo essencial à identidade católica algum tipo de exclusivismo.

La nomination du divin et la ritualité des textes: un phénomène de connaissance, de médiation et d’identité
Creators: name: Pinto, Paulo Mendes
Publisher: name: Revista Lusófona de Ciência das Religiões
Year: 2019

description: Este ensaio equaciona a relação entre a declaração, a ritualidade e canonização dos textos sagrados. Damos especial destaque à natureza da língua e da escrita na criação de formas de ligação, quer dos indivíduos, quer dos colectivos à própria noção de sacralidade através do rito e de natureza atribuída ao próprio texto e à língua. Seguindo, especialmente, Ricour, trabalhamos a ideia de língua no rito e nos textos sagrados, tentando perceber como se forma a sacralidade de que, no limite, o próprio crente participa, na medida em que declara e faz parte do rito. Palavras-chave: Ritualidade; Textos Sagrados; Nomeação; Monoteização

description: The Graph Motif problem was introduced in 2006 in the context of biological networks. It consists of deciding whether or not a multiset of colors occurs in a connected subgraph of a vertex-colored graph. Graph Motif has been mostly analyzed from the standpoint of parameterized complexity. The main parameters which came into consideration were the size of the multiset and the number of colors. Though, in the many applications of Graph Motif, the input graph originates from real-life and has structure. Motivated by this prosaic observation, we systematically study its complexity relatively to graph structural parameters. For a wide range of parameters, we give new or improved FPT algorithms, or show that the problem remains intractable. For the FPT cases, we also give some kernelization lower bounds as well as some ETH-based lower bounds on the worst case running time. Interestingly, we establish that Graph Motif is W[1]-hard (while in W[P]) for parameter max leaf number, which is, to the best of our knowledge, the first problem to behave this way.

Subjects: Ciencia abierta, café, barismo, tueste, diálogo de saberes e Ituango

description: Se diseñó una estrategia pedagógica donde el caficultor de Ituango transforma su producto tostando y preparando la bebida mediante el auto-reconocimiento de sus propias memorias y saberes ancestrales, caminando desde el uso de herramientas tradicionales, hasta la implementación de nuevas tecnologías como un tostador con agitador incorporado e instrumentos de barismo. Se lo introdujo en planillas de seguimiento de los cambios fisicoquímicos a controlar mediante una línea de tiempo, mientras se complementa los saberes tradicionales con información técnica, en un proceso de aprender haciendo. Posteriormente, se preparó café con el producto tostado obtenido por tres métodos de barismo (prensa francesa, aeropress y V60) y finalmente se degustó las tazas preparadas y se abrió un dialogó para comparar sus diferencias sensoriales y las preferencias personales.

description: The current study investigated the effects of proton pump inhibitor use and apolipoprotein ε4 carrier status on changes in neuropsychological functioning in healthy adults with familial risk factors for dementia. As part of the Wisconsin Registry for Alzheimer’s Prevention study, 1,573 subjects were administered questionnaires on their medical history, gave blood samples, and were administered neuropsychological assessments during four visits over a 10–15 year period. Linear mixed models assessed if non-users, subjects who stopped, started, or consistently used proton pump inhibitors differed in changes in working memory, verbal memory, psychomotor speed, and cognitive flexibility. The models did not yield significant main effects for proton pump inhibitor use or interaction effects between proton pump inhibitor use and apolipoprotein ε4 carrier status on a decline in memory or processing speed. An interaction effect suggested stopping a proton pump inhibitor may be protective against declines in cognitive flexibility among non-carriers. Although stopping a proton pump inhibitor use may have mild protective effects on executive functioning for non-apolipoprotein ε4 carriers, proton pump inhibitor use was not associated with memory decline in a sample of subjects with familial risk factors for dementia.
O Oriente (tão) Próximo O Substrato Levantino da Cultura Imaterial do Estuário do Tejo

description: O trabalho que seguidamente se desenvolve assume-se como uma leitura (inferencial e disputável) da ocupação do estuário do Tejo. A proposta que apresento pretende abalizar: a) o contributo que emprestaram algumas das línguas semitas ocidentais mais antigas (fenício, púnico, hebraico e siríaco) aos étimos regionais; b) a influência do orientalismo sidérico na alteração dos quadros mental, cultural e religioso dos sítios de habitat. De modo a construir um modelo interpretativo verosímil, argumentado e coerente (apesar de conscientemente controverso), servir-me-ei dos diversos contributos que, há mais de um século, os diferentes cientistas sociais têm dado à bibliografia local. Também lançarei mão dos mais recentes progressos feitos nos campos da arqueologia sidérica e da filologia oriental. Palavras-chave: Religião; Orientalismo, Toponímia; Santarém; Vale do Tejo

description: An efficient approach of measuring the absolute free energy in parallel tempering Monte Carlo using the exponential averaging method is discussed and the results are compared with those of population annealing Monte Carlo using the three-dimensional Edwards-Anderson Ising spin glass model as benchmark tests. Numerical results show that parallel tempering, even though uses a much less number of temperatures than population annealing, can nevertheless equally efficiently measure the absolute free energy by simulating each temperature for longer times.

description: A mathematical theory of time-dependent dislocation mechanics of unrestricted geometric and material nonlinearity is reviewed. Within a ‘small deformation’ setting, a suite of simplified, but interesting, models, namely a nonlocal Ginzburg Landau, a nonlocal level set, and a nonlocal generalized Burgers equation are derived. In the finite deformation setting, it is shown that an additive decomposition of the total velocity gradient into elastic and plastic parts emerges naturally from a micromechanical starting point that involves no notion of plastic deformation but only the elastic distortion, material velocity, dislocation density and the dislocation velocity. Moreover, a plastic spin tensor emerges naturally as well.
A religião e a coisa pública

Year: 2019

description: Qual é ou poderá ser a contribuição da religião – em particular a cristã – para a coisa pública? De acordo com algumas perspectivas político-ideológicas, essa possível contribuição será dispensável porque desnecessária, uma vez que a vivência religiosa é remetida automaticamente para a esfera privada ou para o interior dos templos, não encontrando qualquer espaço de expressão e afirmação na vida comunitária. Porém, alguns autores defendem que a liberdade de expressão está ligada à liberdade religiosa. Mas as comunidades locais de fé podem ser particularmente relevantes em vertentes como: ética de vida, socialização, integração e coesão social, desde que levem à prática uma correcta interpretação do conceito de “reino de Deus”. Palavras-chave: religião, ética, socialização, coesão social, reino de Deus.

description: We present Next-to-Leading Order (NLO) predictions for $γγγγ$ final states, including the effects of photon fragmentation. Our results are calculated fully analytically using the techniques of $D$-dimensional unitarity, and we discuss some refinements to existing methods, focusing particularly on the role of three-mass triangle coefficients. Using these techniques we are able to produce a numerically stable Monto Carlo code that runs fully in double precision. We investigate the $4γ$ signal at colliders, both for Run II of the LHC and at future machines. Our results are implemented in MCFM.

description: A saúde pode ser definida como um estado ou processo no qual o indivíduo se encontra em perfeito equilíbrio orgânico. Diversos são os fatores que podem contribuir para que o organismo promova tais desequilíbrios e contribua para o aparecimento de inúmeras patologias. A doença renal crônica também conhecida como DRC é considera como a perda irreversível da função e atividade renal ou seja filtração dos rins. Este comprometimento faz com que todo o sistema do equilíbrio metabólico e hidrolítico do indivíduo seja comprometido. Ao ser diagnosticado com doença renal muitos dos pacientes entram num quadro de medo e ansiedade mediante as possibilidades de submeterem á procedimentos de hemodiálise, diálise ou transplante renal comprometendo e limitando ainda mais as suas funcionalidades. Neste contexto pacientes com doenças crônicas buscam na fé, na espiritualidade um apoio como estratégia de amenizar, compreender e lidar de forma esperançosa com sua doença. Palavras-chave: espiritualidade, doença renal, hemodiálise
