title: Germany and Greece in the Eurozone Crisis from the Viewpoint of the Neo-Neo Debate

description: This study looks to analyse to what extent the neorealism versus neoliberalism debate contributes to understanding the complexity of the European Union's institutionalization, focusing on the impacts of the 2008 financial crisis and the asymmetries between Germany and Greece. How far can Greece be considered guilty for its situation and how far is Germany involved both in the cause and in the resolution of this crisis? To answer these questions, a brief analysis of the European Union's formation and of both countries' macroeconomic indicators and competitiveness is presented. The article also discusses the increasing institutionalization of the International System and the complex interdependence created within the European Union. It argues that increased European cooperation has deep-lying neorealist motivations and that the world financial regime's pandemic dynamics makes evident the asymmetrical interdependence between Germany and Greece. Economic disparities between the two nations are determinant factors in their respective behaviours prior to the 2008 crisis.

title: Remote sensing and GIS applied to assessment of environmental fragility in the River Basin

description: AbstractThe Upper Coxim River Basin (UCB) has an area of approximately 1375 km2located in the municipalities of São Gabriel do Oeste and Camapuã in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. The aim of this work was to evaluate the environmental fragility of the UCB using fuzzy logic implemented at a Geographic Information System to propose a model of physical-territorial management. Spatial data used were arranged in a database implemented in a Geographic Information System (GIS). The generation of the physical-territorial management model was carried out considering preparation of UCB relief mapping, potential natural erosion, land-use and land-cover, environmental fragility and, environmental legislation. Results indicated a significant relationship between landforms and their uses: mechanized agriculture in the Chapada of the São Gabriel and livestock development on the Plateau Taquari hills. The guidelines set out by the type of land use proposals were: Priority areas for permanent preservation, priority area for rehabilitation and preservation and areas for sustainable use.

title: Failures in Pharmaceutical Services management for Judicialized Medicines, in 16 municipalities of the Brazilian Southeast

description: ABSTRACT Since the 1990s, judicial demands for medicines have intensified. Several studies have outlined these demands. We describe the organization of the management of Municipal Pharmaceutical Services (PS) for the provision of medicines demanded through litigation. The sample included 16 municipalities, four for each state in the Brazilian Southeast. To describe the management profile of PS, a matrix of indicators was developed including dimensions of human and financial resources, and PS activities. In nine municipalities, management of medicines acquired through litigation was the responsibility of the local manager of PS. Indicators on expenditures with litigated medicines were the ones with the worst performance. Only six managers informed using technical analysis of prescriptions and regular contact with the judiciary. In seven municipalities, managers were unable to specify the modality of acquisition of medicines. Municipal management plays a major role in the management of PS and must be reviewed, with the need for a thorough questioning regarding its role and possible changes it needs to implement.

title: Identification of Design Considerations for Small Satellite Remote Sensing Systems in Low Earth Orbit

description: ABSTRACT: The Sergio Arboleda University is preparing its next satellite mission, named Libertad 2. It will carry out a system of image acquisition as a working tool for researches based on the obtained data. Complete methodologies are often used in the development of satellite missions for planning, execution and deployment, for example, the standards of the European Cooperation for Space Standardization; these methodologies, however, do not include technical specifications or requirements for the development of nano-satellites nor for their subsystems. For this reason, this article focuses on the identification of the characteristics, requirements and restrictions, which must be considered in the design of a remote sensing system for satellites under the CubeSat standard, in order to serve as a starting point for the development of the main payload of the Libertad 2 mission.

title: Searching for ethos in family health strategy: a bioethical investigation

description: This is a qualitative and quantitative empirical study seeking to identify and critically describe bioethical issues in primary health care from the perspective of members of Family Health Strategy (ESF) teams in a city in the mountainous region of the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It also sought to detect the degree of theoretical approximation of professionals regarding the basics of ethics and bioethics, based on principalist theory. A semi-structured questionnaire was adopted as data collection instrument. The responses were categorized into aspects related to (i) ethical/bioethical conflicts in relation to staff and users; (ii) ethical/bioethical conflicts in the process of work and coexistence among team members; and (iii) misconceptions regarding the concepts of basic (bio)ethics and deontology. Although apparently less obvious, such matters concerning the scope of primary health care compromise the work process and the promotion of comprehensive care for users of the SUS.

title: Chemical fingerprint of iron oxides related to iron enrichment of banded iron formation from the Cauê Formation - Esperança Deposit, Quadrilátero Ferrífero, Brazil: a laser ablation ICP-MS study

description: Chemical signatures of iron oxides from dolomitic itabirite and high-grade iron ore from the Esperança deposit, located in the Quadrilátero Ferrífero, indicate that polycyclic processes involving changing of chemical and redox conditions are responsible for the iron enrichment on Cauê Formation from Minas Supergroup. Variations of Mn, Mg and Sr content in different generations of iron oxides from dolomitic itabirite, high-grade iron ore and syn-mineralization quartz-carbonate-hematite veins denote the close relationship between high-grade iron ore formation and carbonate alteration. This indicates that dolomitic itabirite is the main precursor of the iron ore in that deposit. Long-lasting percolation of hydrothermal fluids and shifts in the redox conditions have contributed to changes in the Y/Ho ratio, light/heavy rare earth elements ratio and Ce anomaly with successive iron oxide generations (martite-granular hematite), as well as lower abundance of trace elements including rare earth elements in the younger specularite generations.

title: Expansion of the judiciary in the Brazilian public health system

description: Abstract This study addresses the history of and interpretations made by the Brazilian Supreme Court in its judgments when intervening in the Brazilian Public Health System to make it more effective. Research was carried out on the Supreme Court’s jurisprudence database and fourteen rulings were highlighted. It was observed that the basis for intervention in the Health System was its very deficiencies and the constitutional guarantee of health services, and that the lawsuits have become more complex, requiring more detailed reasoning and adherence to new theories by the Supreme Court. The intervention covered not only access to health goods, but also other aspects related to the management of the Brazilian Public Health System. In general, the stance of the Supreme Court was affirmative, aiming not only to support the decision, but to establish rules for the future. It is concluded that judicial intervention in public health system should not only be maintained, but intensified.

title: Delirium in elderly inpatients admitted to clinical wards Prevalence and investigation of clinical conditions in a Brazilian sample

description: Abstract In Brazil there is scarce data about the occurrence of delirium among hospitalized elderly patients. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of delirium among elderly patients hospitalized in clinical wards. Methods: This cross-sectional study examined a sample of elderly inpatients admitted to three clinical wards of a general hospital between July 2011 and May 2012. The presence of delirium was detected by applying the Confusion Assessment Method (CAM). Dementia diagnosis was conducted in two steps: screening and diagnosis (Cambridge Examination, CAMDEX, was applied during hospitalization at a second timepoint). Other medical diagnoses and medications in use were extracted from medical records. Results: A sample of 173 elderly inpatients was examined; mean age 71.2 years (SD: 7.8; 60-92 years); 64.2% male. Thirty-one patients were diagnosed with delirium; prevalence of 17.9% (95% CI: 12.2-23.6). Delirium was directly associated with Urinary Tract Infection, Renal Failure and Dementia (p&lt;0.05). Conclusion: The principal findings of this study were a high prevalence of delirium and the identification of associated factors, helping to guide preventive approaches and clinical management for at-risk patients in a Brazilian sample.

title: Investment in Innovation and its Influence on Net Sales: An Analysis Based on PINTEC Data

description: ABSTRACT The aim of this research is to analyze the influence of innovation investments on net sales from major national sectors. The data was collected from the free access to the Technological Innovation Research (PINTEC) database. To proceed the analysis, we collected the PINTEC data from the years 2000, 2003, 2005, 2008 and 2011, consolidating them in a specific way. The analysis were developed through regressions of panel data with fixed effects, according to Hausman test, and the definition of large scale sectors was based on the median of net sales. The results suggest that, on average, for the large scale sectors the acquisition of machinery & equipment and industrial projects & other technical improvements are statistically relevant variables to increase the net sales.

title: Suicide profiles in a municipality of the Legal Amazon

description: Abstract Introduction Suicide is a global public health problem and is among the leading causes of death worldwide. Thus, this study aimed to study the occurrence and characterize the suicide cases recorded in a municipality of the Legal Amazon, between the years of 1999 and 2016. Method We performed an epidemiological descriptive and transversal study including all cases registered as suicides at the Institute of Forensic Medicine (IFM) of Barra do Garças, Mato Grosso. Results Suicide rates ranged from 8.6 (2014) to 20.3 (2003). There was a higher frequency in males (76.6%) and in adults (78.1%). The most common form of suicide was asphyxiation (49.6%), followed by intoxications (27.0%), mainly by pesticides (60.9%). April was the month with the highest number of suicides (13.1%), and February (5.1%) had the lowest. Sundays were the day of the week with a higher incidence (17.5%). Conclusions In conclusion, male adults are more likely to commit self-harm. Thus, there is a need for more research on public health and prevention strategies, also considering more effective actions according to the profile of the victims.
