title: The contribution of Brasília's urban sprawl to the fragmentation of the Brazilian Cerrado around the city

description: Abstract This paper assesses, using landscape metrics, the fragmentation of the Brazilian Cerrado caused by Brasília’s urban sprawl. The study is divided into three analysis: i) diachronic analysis; ii) synchronic analysis; and iii) scenario of non-urban sprawling of the city. The diachronic analysis (1953-2013) studies the Distrito Federal’s landscape transformations focusing on urban areas and on natural areas. The synchronic analysis compares urban densities and urban compactness in Brazilian’s metropolitan areas (São Paulo / SP, Rio de Janeiro / RJ, Belo Horizonte / BH, Recife / PE, Porto Alegre / RS, Salvador / BA, Brasília / DF, Fortaleza / CE and Curitiba / PR) in 2015. The hypothetical scenario of Brasília’s non-urban sprawling shows the shape and size that the city could have if it were denser and more compact. Results indicate that a denser and more compact urban scenario could have preserved more of the city's natural landscape.

title: Gender and skin color/race intersections in food insecurity across Brazilian households

description: Food insecurity is distributed unequally throughout Brazilian regions. This study aims to investigate the intersections of gender and skin color/race in the cases of food insecurity in households across Brazil. Microdata from the 2018 Brazilian Household Budgets Survey (POF) were used, with a sample of 57,920 households. Food insecurity levels were compared to profiles created from the intersection of gender (man and woman) and skin color/race: white man, white woman, mixed-race man, mixed-race woman, black man, and black woman. Prevalence ratios (PR) were estimated using Poisson regression models to investigate the association of profiles with moderate/severe food insecurity, separated by macroregion. The North had the worst proportions of all food insecurity levels (57%), followed by Northeast (50.4%). The North, Northeast, and Central-West macroregions had prevalence of moderate/severe food insecurity up to five times higher among households headed by women compared to those headed by men (p &lt; 0.001). Moderate/severe food insecurity was associated to households headed by black women in all macroregions of Brazil, but prevalence ratios in Southeast were higher compared to other regions for mixed-race women (PR = 1.16; 95%CI: 1.13-1.20), while the PR was higher in South for black women (PR = 1.17; 95%CI: 1.13-1.21). Outcomes suggest that the intersectional food insecurity data in Brazil - focused on gender, skin color/race and macroregion of residence - should be considered for policies aimed at reducing hunger and related issues.

title: Place branding and cultural capital: the case of Buenos Aires’ Chinatown

description: Abstract The article presented below aims to propose a reflection on the valuation of some spaces in the city that have a high intercultural load. Working on the definitions of some concepts from different disciplines and relating them directly to an example from the City of Buenos Aires, it is suggested to review the reading of the urban landscape production in spaces of cultural exchange, understanding that both the elements and the spaces produced and recreated from different cultures are visible expressions of the urban intangible heritage. From the example of the Chinatown of Buenos Aires, it is brought forward a reflection on the objectification of some cultural assets in the context of globalization, the use of identity based on the place branding of the city and its repercussions on the urban.

title: Origins of regional planning in Colombia and its challenges for the territory of the 21st century

description: Abstract The article is intended to highlight the origins of regional geographic thinking in Colombia and to explain the dynamics involved in the challenges of regional planning in the twenty-first century, currently materialized in the Planning Administrative Regions (RAP). The research aims to contribute to the knowledge and interpretation of the challenges presented by applied associativity from the perspective of geographic science (human and cultural) and to investigate the ethnocultural origins of the regional forms of organization and policies that spatially influence the Colombian territory. This spirit remains in the process of concretization of the RAPs, which the authors attribute to Fals Borda in "La insurgencia de las provincias" (1988). These are discussed given the need to rescue the natural-cultural bases for the sustainability of the territory and social innovation. The process initiated by Fals Borda culminates with Law 1962 of 2019, which establishes the basis for the construction of the Territorial Entity Region (RET).

title: Mapping the soundscape: impacts of the sounds of faith

description: Abstract The Brazilian religious field has been undergoing transformations, such as the diversification of religions and, in consequence, the increase in places for celebration. Religious sounds can overcome the physical limits of the building and become part of the local soundscape. In this respect, this work aims to investigate the sound impacts caused by religious places of worship in the Village Campestre district of Maceió, Alagoas, Brazil, which has an average of seventy such places and is the main reason for justifying it as the focus for investigation in this study. The methodology adopted comprised an analysis by means of sound maps (noise and perceptive maps) that were obtained from in situ measurements and questionnaire. The results showed a mapping model for point source identification and analysis. The sounds of the worship impact the local soundscape because the sound pressure levels exceed, on average, 20 dB(A) of the values determined by NBR 10151:2019. However, the qualitative data showed that the sound perception of faith was classified four times more pleasant than unpleasant. The sounds of the worship impact the local soundscape because the sound pressure levels exceed 20 dB(A) of the values recommended by the ABNT NBR 10151:2019. Therefore, the analysis model resulted in relevant information on the local soundscape by considering qualitative and quantitative maps.

title: Trends and evolution of automobile ownership in the municipalities of Chile

description: Abstract The automobile has played a fundamental role in the development of cities in the daily movement of people. This paper analyzes the explosive increase in the number of motorized vehicles in the municipalities of Chile. Additionally, due to its national relevance, a disaggregated analysis of the Metropolitan Area of Santiago is presented. Through statistical data of the last 20 years, the analysis evidenced an explosive but differentiated increase of the automotive fleet. Results show the poorest municipalities with a lower dynamism, while those of the more affluent sectors experience exuberant increases. Particularly in the Metropolitan Area of Santiago, the results follow the same pattern, dynamics that jeopardize the planning and sustainability of national urban areas. A reflection is made focusing on the type of city that is being planned and built throughout the country and the urgency of a strategic public policy in urban public transport.

title: Urban structure and land-use change in Bogotá between 2007 and 2017

description: Abstract The objective of this document is to estimate a discrete selection model and a censored distribution model that specifies to identify the main determinants that explain the changes in land use in Bogotá between 2007 and 2017. The main results point out that distances to the main road, to Transmilenio trunks, shopping centers and employment sub-centers, are related to the probability of change. On the other hand, it is found that areas of residential activity defined in the 2004 Land Use Plan have, in some cases, effects contrary to those expected. The analyzes and results of this document are fundamental inputs to design a regulatory system that incorporates the interests of the agents of an economy, the potential existence of conflicts in land uses and the expansion of the urban slick can be taken into account.

title: Supplementary Material for: Progression of Recurrent Pancreatitis to Chronic Pancreatitis within 3 Years due to <i>SPINK1</i> Mutation IVS3+2T&gt;C

description: When the etiology of pancreatitis cannot be determined despite sufficient investigation, recurrence and progression to chronic pancreatitis often involve genetic mutations. Herein, we describe a case of recurrent pancreatitis with the IVS3+2T&gt;C mutation in the serine protease inhibitor Kazal type 1 (<i>SPINK1</i>) gene that progressed to chronic pancreatitis in only 3 years. A 35-year-old man was referred to our hospital, where he was diagnosed with mild pancreatitis and was treated conservatively. However, the patient experienced recurrent episodes of pancreatitis, which progressed to become chronic pancreatitis with a pancreatic calcification 1 year later. After 3 years, the patient developed pancreatic duct stenosis and required a pancreatic duct stent placement. Regarding the cause of chronic pancreatitis, alcohol abuse was ruled out based on history taking. Considering the course of treatment, autoimmune pancreatitis and obstructive pancreatitis, such as pancreatic divisum, were also ruled out. Finally, a germline genetic test was performed to determine the etiology of pancreatitis, which revealed the IVS3+2T&gt;C mutation in <i>SPINK1</i>. This case shows the importance of genetic testing in patients with idiopathic pancreatitis to determine their etiology and is a rare incident that can report the progression of the disease from acute to chronic pancreatitis.

title: Conscious Capitalism and Construction of Humanized Relationships: A Study in a Credit Cooperative from the Sensemaking Perspective

description: ABSTRACT Objective: this study aims to understand how the purpose of a credit union organization focused on humanizing financial relations can be institutionalized from the stakeholder’s interpretation and action. Theoretical Framework: this purpose was analyzed based on the concepts of an integrated perspective in terms of sensemaking, construction of humanized relations, conscious capitalism, and organizing, which allowed for a contextualized and non-linear reflection on the studied phenomenon, going beyond formal and tangible parameters of the manifested expectations of the cooperative’s strategic guidelines. Methods: the research strategy is a case study for presenting the uniqueness of a specific phenomenon, using content analysis as a technique from the data triangulation of semi-structured interviews, participant observation, and document analysis. Results: as a result, it was possible to conclude that the legitimacy of the cooperative’s strategic purpose goes through an interpretative process of individuals and their different roles that, when interacting among themselves, provide a basis for actions toward incorporating the purpose with a focus on humanized relations because it is a process of social construction and retrospective re-signification of strategic parameters that delineate behaviors. Conclusions: this study provides an expanded look at a specific phenomenon (humanized financial relations) in organizations guided by particular and universal principles (credit unions) that, while competing with non-cooperative financial institutions (banks), need to balance economic and social interests, without ceasing to be competitive.

title: Interchromosomal translocation in neural progenitor cells exposed to L1 retrotransposition

description: Abstract LINE-1 (L1) elements are a class of transposons, comprising approximately 19% and 21% of the mouse and human genomes, respectively. L1 retrotransposons can reverse transcribe their own RNA sequence into a de novo DNA copy integrated into a new genomic location. This activity, known as retrotransposition, may induce genomic alterations, such as insertions and deletions. Interestingly, L1s can retrotranspose and generate more de novo L1 copies in brains than in other somatic tissues. Here, we describe for the first time interchromosomal translocation triggered by ectopic L1 retrotransposition in neural progenitor cells. Such an observation adds to the studies in neurological and psychiatric diseases that exhibited variation in L1 activity between diseased brains compared with controls, suggesting that L1 activity could be detrimental when de-regulated.
