title: Changes in circulating microRNAs following head impacts in soccer

description: To explore the short-term effects of accidental head impacts and repetitive headers on circulating microRNAs, accounting for the effects of high-intensity exercise alone. Blood samples were collected from professional soccer players at rest. Repeat samples were drawn 1 h and 12 h after three conditions: (1) accidental head impacts in a match, (2) repetitive headers during training, and (3) high-intensity exercise. 89 samples were screened to detect microRNAs expressed after each exposure. Identified microRNAs were then validated in 98 samples to determine consistently deregulated microRNAs. Deregulated microRNAs were further explored using bioinformatics to identify target genes and characterize their involvement in biological pathways. Accidental head impacts led to deregulation of eight microRNAs that were unaffected by high-intensity exercise; target genes were linked to 12 specific signaling pathways, primarily regulating chromatin organization, Hedgehog and Wnt signaling. Repetitive headers led to deregulation of six microRNAs that were unaffected by high-intensity exercise; target genes were linked to one specific signaling pathway (TGF-β). High-intensity exercise led to deregulation of seven microRNAs; target genes were linked to 31 specific signaling pathways. We identified microRNAs specific to accidental head impacts and repetitive headers in soccer, potentially being useful as brain injury biomarkers.

title: Factors that Influence Follow-Up Care for Families of Children with Acquired Brain Injury: A Scoping Review

description: To describe factors that contribute to medical/rehabilitation service access following pediatric acquired brain injury (ABI) and identify gaps in the literature to guide future research. The PRISMA framework for scoping reviews guided this process. Peer-reviewed journal databases were searched for articles published between 1/2008 and 12/2020, identifying 400 unique articles. For full inclusion, articles had to examine a variable related to the receipt or initiation of medical/rehabilitative services for children with ABI. Review articles and non-English articles were excluded. Nine studies met full inclusion criteria. Included studies identified factors focused on four primary areas: understanding brain injury education/recommendations and ease of implementing recommendations, ease of scheduling and attending appointments, age/injury factors, and sociocultural factors. Well-scheduled appointments and simple strategies facilitated families’ access to care and implementation of recommendations. An overwhelming number of recommendations, socioeconomic variables, and transportation challenges served as barriers for families and schools. This scoping review offers several directions on which researchers can build to improve access to care and recommendation-implementation for families who have a child with an ABI. Enhanced understanding of these factors may lead to better service access, reduction of unmet needs, and enhanced long-term outcomes for children with ABI.

title: Incorporating reading strategies for EFL undergraduate learners in Saudi Arabia: A think-aloud study

description: The study sample consisted of 26 EFL students from the Department of English Language and Translation at Qassim University that were divided equally by gender (13 males and 13 females). All the students were native speakers of Arabic who were majoring in English. The ages of the participants ranged from 20 to 22 years old. These students were randomly assigned to the study from a group of students who were enrolled in a Reading and Vocabulary Building Course. Afterwards, four students (two males, and two females) were purposefully selected based on their proficiency levels to participate in the reading thinking-aloud task and to answer the interview questions. <br> This study employed a think-aloud protocol design to gather verbal data on cognitive and metacognitive reading strategies used by undergraduate students enrolled in the EFL department in Qassim University. Therefore, the study is based on an explanatory design relying on the verbal protocols of the participants. A mixed-method research approach was utilized in the study as data were analyzed both quantitatively and qualitatively. Data analysis aims to explore both cognitive and metacognitive reading strategy types that the participants used while engaged in a reading task. <br> <br>

title: High resolution CESM "ASD" data

description: High-resolution global climate modeling holds the promise of capturing planetary-scale climate modes and small-scale (regional and sometimes extreme) features simultaneously, including their mutual interaction. This paper discusses a new state-of-the-art high-resolution Community Earth System Model (CESM) simulation that was performed with these goals in mind. The atmospheric component was at 0.25º grid spacing, and ocean component at 0.1º. One hundred years of “present day” simulation were completed. Major results were that annual mean sea surface temperature (SST) in the Equatorial Pacific, and El-Niño Southern Oscillation variability were well simulated compared to standard resolution models. Tropical and Southern Atlantic SST also had much reduced bias compared to previous versions of the model. In addition, the high resolution of the model enabled small-scale features of the climate system to be represented, such as air-sea interaction over ocean frontal zones, mesoscale systems generated by the Rockies, and tropical cyclones. Associated single component runs and standard resolution coupled runs are used to help attribute the strengths and weaknesses of the fully coupled run. The high-resolution run employed 23,404 cores, costing 250 thousand processor-hours per simulated year and made about 2 simulated years per day on the NCAR- Wyoming supercomputer ‘Yellowstone’.

title: Analysis of Models for Evaluating People Requesting Continued Payment Benefits

description: This article presents an analysis of the results of the evaluation of people with disabilities who request Continued Payment Benefits, based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) according to the characterization of the requests for this benefit in terms of diagnosis of disability. Among the 1,404 requests for the benefit filed at Social Security Agency of the municipality of Assis Chateubriand, Paraná State, the illnesses and disabilities were analyzed and grouped according to medical diagnoses (CID-10). The study also reviewed the conclusions of the processes filed from May 2006 - April 2009, before the change in the law and for the period from May 2009 to April 2012, after the institution of the social evaluation based on the ICF. The number of requests denied increased after the implementation of the evaluation model in 2007 (59.65%). It was concluded that the legal alterations that define the current model of medical and social evaluation of incapacity do not have a positive impact on the expansion of social rights, and the Continued Payment Benefit continues to be highly focused and selective.

title: Single System: a federative or subordinated mode for administration of the Single Social Assistance System

description: This article analyzes some of the bases of the federative agreement that has supported Brazil's Single Social Assistance System (SUAS) for the past 10 years. Based on an examination of two fundamental elements of this agreement: municipal population as a determinant of responsibilities of the municipalities within the system and, as a consequence, of what they must do; finance actions of the SUAS. The article addresses the distance between the tripartite conception of financing and care at the federal, state and municipal levels and that which is effectively practiced. The first topic was analyzed based on census data from 2010 gathered by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics. For the second, some results of a study conducted in 2013 and 2014 by the Nucleus of Studies and Research about Social Welfare and Social Assistance at the Pontifíca Universidade Católica de São Paulo in partnership with the National College of Municipal Social Assistance Administrators (CONGEMAS). The study reveals that there is little knowledge about and a lack of monitoring of municipal spending on public social assistance policy. It concludes that there is a need to review the federative pact guiding SUAS.

title: Contemporary Social Work: an Analysis based on the federal budget

description: This study presents a critical reflection about Social Assistance policy, based on considerations about funds allocated to this policy in the federal budget highlighting the years of 2005, a landmark for the establishment of the Single Social Assistance System (SUAS) and 2013, the last year for which data are available. Data from the General Controllers Office were used to obtain indicators of federal government investments in the field. The amounts were adjusted for inflation using the General Price Index, Internal Availability, provided by the Fundação Getúlio Vargas (IGP-DI/FGV). Finally, the study shows the current trends in social assistance programs, indicating the prevalence of income transfer programs to fight extreme poverty in a large context of state commitment to financial capital.

title: The (In)Eligibility of Workers Sent to the INSS Professional Rehabilitation Program

description: Abstract The purpose of this study is to investigate the reasons to not accept workers who make contributions into the Professional Rehabilitation Program (PRP) of the National Social Security Institute (INSS). Using a transversal and documental case study, data were collected from the records individuals sent to the PRP at an INSS agency in southeastern Brazil, from 2007-2012. A tool developed to standardize the data collection and recording, verified if the final Evaluation of Work Potential reports prepared by the staff responsible for initial attendance determined if the worker sent was eligible or not to enter the PRP program. The reasons described by the staff for not including workers were grouped according to the proximity to a signifier, forming central categories, discriminating them by the justifications made in each case.

title: Current Forms of Capital Accumulation, the World of Labor and the Restructuring of Social Security in Brazil

description: Abstract This article demonstrates that the restructuring of rights to Brazilian social security benefits in a restrictive manner has deep connections with transformations in the world of labor and with the predominantly financial standard of capital accumulation. The objective is to discuss the mediations that operate between the worldwide financial movements of capital, the restructuring of the world of labor and counter-reforms in the social security system operated in the governments of President Fernando Henrique Cardoso and Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. It defends that the obstacles to universalization of Brazilian social security cannot be resolved only within the scope of social protection policies, but must be related to the need for structural transformations in the Brazilian economy and society.

title: Finances, Public Fund and Financing of Social Security in Brazil

description: Abstract This article analyzes the effects produced by the neoliberal hegemony of finance over the tax financing of public policy for social security, healthcare and social assistance during the Lula government in Brazil. It uses traditional Marxist theoretical references and analyzed federal budget data found in the federal Senate SIGA system about the sources of funding for social security. It concludes that workers contribute more than capitalists in the tax financing of social security in the Lula government.

title: Poor Youth at Public Universities: Access and permanence

description: Abstract Public policies have been recently implemented in Brazil to expand access of youth to higher education. Initiatives such as REUNI, PROUNI and quota laws were decisive for the strong increase in the number of students in higher education. This article describes and analyses how these policies were appropriated and implemented by Brazil's public universities, using as an empiric reference the Federal University at the Southern Border (UFFS). Using qualitative research methods and techniques (document analysis) and a quantitative method (a closed institutional questionnaire) the study revealed a significant change in the profile of the youth who have entered the public university studied. The institutional policies for access brought to the university youths and women with less educational preparation and family income up to three minimum wages.
