ABSTRACT The work was intended to evaluate the effect of different organic compounds originating from the mixture of agroindustrial and urban wastes, as well as their doses in the physiology and production of cowpea. The experiment was conducted under a randomized block design, in a 4 x 5 + 2 factorial arrangement, with four organic fertilizers (3 composed obtained from of sewage sludge, green coconut shell, carnauba butt; and sewage sludge biochar), five doses (20, 40, 60, 80 and 100 t ha-1) and two additional treatments (without fertilization and mineral fertilization). We evaluated the leaf gas exchange in three phenological stages and the productive aspects. Regarding the physiological variables, the compounds with carnauba butt and green coconut shell promoted the best results and throughout the crop cycle, the gas exchange decreased. The productive aspects were increased by about 60%, especially due to the treatments with organic compounds. The PCA can confirm the univariate results, with emphasis on compounds with green coconut shell and carnauba butt. The high percentage of explanation found in axis 1 (60.49%) may be associated with the fact that the gas exchange and production variables are highly responsive to fertilization. The treatment with biochar caused a reduction in both in the physiological and in the productive aspects. The compounds with carnauba tip and green coconut shell promote satisfactory results, being viable alternatives to complement chemical fertilization with an indicated dose of 300g pot-1 or 60 t ha-1.

Resumo O graute é um material normalmente aplicado para melhorar as propriedades mecânicas da alvenaria estrutural. Assim, a demanda pela utilização do grautes vem crescendo paralelamente à demanda por alvenaria estrutural. Sem diretrizes específicas para dosagem, esses produtos geralmente são preparados no local com base nos mesmos conceitos para preparo de concretos comuns. Várias propriedades do graute ainda precisam ser investigadas e compreendidas como ineficiência dos parâmetros de dosagem, resultando na produção de grautes não ecoeficientes. Desta forma, existe uma demanda por estudos técnico-científicos que auxiliem no desenvolvimento de diretrizes para dosagens de grautes. Este trabalho avalia as propriedades reológicas e do endurecidas de composições de grautes que simulam condições de campo para mostrar a inadequação do método de dosagem, demonstrando uma maneira de entender essa lacuna na tecnologia. A pesquisa investiga como as mudanças na relação água/cimento, para aumentar trabalhabilidade, afetariam as propriedades de estado fresco e endurecido de grautes para alvenaria estrutural. A mistura dos grautes foi realizada em um reômetro que permitiu determinar o comportamento e os parâmetros reológicos durante a mistura e em diferentes condições de cisalhamento. A resistência à compressão, a porosidade e a permeabilidade ao ar foram as propriedades avaliadas no estado endurecido. Os resultados mostraram que composições com maior teor de cimento não necessariamente refletiram propriedades mecânicas melhores, uma vez que não houve alterações estatística, pois outras variáveis também foram alteradas. Os resultados da pesquisa sugerem que o método de projeto usado em obra pode não ser apropriado o que pode resultar no desperdício de materiais cimentícios e composições não ecoeficientes. estrutural Assim dosagem comuns ecoeficientes forma técnicocientíficos técnico científicos tecnologia águacimento água água/cimento trabalhabilidade cisalhamento compressão melhores estatística alteradas

Abstract Grout is a material usually applied to enhance the mechanical properties of structural masonry. As such, the demand for grout has been growing parallel to the demand for structural masonry. Without guidelines for grout mixing design, these products are often prepared on-site based on the same concepts used for preparing ordinary Portland cement-based concretes. Several grout properties still need to be investigated and understood due to this mixing-design approach, and consequently, the production of ecoefficient grouts is a secondary priority. Due to these obstacles, there is a demand for technical-scientific studies to aid with developing grout design guidelines. This work evaluates the rheological and hardened properties of grout compositions that simulate in-field conditions to show the inadequacy of the mixing design method and a way to understand this lack in the technology. The research investigates how the changes in the water-to-cement ratio, to increase the strength, would affect the fresh and hardened state properties of grouts for structural masonry. The grout’s mixing was done in a rheometer which made it possible to determine the rheological behaviour and parameters during mixing and under different shear conditions. Compressive strength, porosity, and air-permeability were evaluated in the hardened state. The results showed that compositions with more cement content does not necessarily reflect enhanced mechanical properties since the differences were not statistically significant, because other variables were also changed. The research findings suggest that the design method used in practice may not be appropriate and potentially result in the waste of cementitious materials and no-eco-friendly compositions. masonry such onsite site cementbased concretes mixingdesign approach consequently priority obstacles technicalscientific technical scientific infield field technology watertocement water ratio strength s porosity airpermeability air permeability significant changed noecofriendly no eco friendly

Abstract: The use of imagem strategies in medical socieal networks is increasingly widespread, meeting the ethical limit established by the CEM. Knowing this, the present study sought to understand the problem of patient exposure in medical social networks. For this, a literature review was carried out from the Scientific Electronic Library Online (Scielo), Pubmed, UpToDate, LILACS databases, articles in English, Spanish and Portuguese published from 2018 onwards were included. Thus, a tendency was noticed in some cities to create laws to regulate this exposure, given that the use of images has become routine in medical advertising, as a way to demonstrate results. However, this practice is greatly accompanied by ethical failures as recommended by the CFM.

Resumen: El uso de estrategias de imagen en las redes sociales médicas está cada vez más extendido, cumpliendo el límite ético establecido por el CEM.

Assim, percebeu-se em algumas cidades a tendência de criar leis para regular essa exposição, haja vista que a utilização de imagens tornou-se rotineira na propaganda médica, como forma demonstrar resultados. Todavia, tal prática vem acompanhada grandemente de falhas éticas segundo o preconizado pelo CFM.

The concepts of EPT and the concepts involved with Trans people (Transvestites, Transsexuals and Transgender people) need to be socialized in the spaces of education, formal and non-formal, considering that in Brazil transphobia is recurrent. This research intends to answer how are the academic productions that address Trans issues in the field of Professional and Technological Education. Thus, the objective of this work is to analyze the scientific productions on EFA and Trans people in the years 2018 to 2023. A qualitative methodology of narrative literature review was used for the development of updated analyzes on the themes, the Google Scholar database was adopted. The categories Integral Formation, World of Work, Social Name and Transphobia were found in the discussions of the selected texts. Given the above, it can be seen that the publications with the theme of EPT and Trans people stimulate articulations for a more human and integral praxis in the processes of education and insertion in the world of work. Among the findings, some proposals direct to the relevance and emergence of these studies in the search for the continued development of EPT and the successful insertion of transgender people in Brazilian society.

Abstract The mining industry in Peru - as well as in many resource-rich countries of the global South - is of great economic and social importance, particularly in remote regions where mineral deposits are often located. The academic literature has so far neglected analysing how women in these regions are affected by the industry. As such, it is relevant to study the gendered conflict surrounding the activity and invisibility of women in the mining industry, as well as their proposals, demands, and needs, with a focus on environmental and social concerns. This study analysed the experiences of peasant women from Peruvian Andes communities in environmental governance processes in mining contexts as they sought to exercise their citizenship within the mining industry and public spaces. Using a qualitative approach involving a focus group and panel discussions, the experiences and perceptions of the women who are part of the participatory environmental monitoring and surveillance committees (PEMSC) were considered. This paper highlights gendered inequalities concerning the benefits of mining, the process of change in the social dynamics of mining communities, and political claims for a better social arrangement, with social, political, economic, and ecological considerations from the women’s point of view.

Resumo A indústria de mineração no Peru - assim como em muitos países ricos em recursos do Sul global - é de grande importância econômica e social, particularmente em regiões remotas onde frequentemente estão localizados depósitos minerais. Até agora, a literatura acadêmica negligenciou a análise de como as mulheres nessas regiões são afetadas pela indústria. Assim, é relevante estudar o conflito de gênero em torno da atividade e invisibilidade das mulheres na mineração, bem como suas propostas, demandas e necessidades, com foco nas preocupações ambientais e sociais. Este estudo analisou as experiências de mulheres camponesas de comunidades andinas peruanas em processos de governança ambiental em contextos de mineração enquanto buscavam exercer sua cidadania dentro da indústria de mineração e espaços públicos. A partir de uma abordagem qualitativa envolvendo um grupo focal e painéis de discussão, foram consideradas as experiências e percepções das mulheres que integram os comitês participativos de monitoramento e vigilância ambiental (PEMSC). Este artigo destaca as desigualdades de gênero em relação aos benefícios da mineração, o processo de mudança na dinâmica social das comunidades mineradoras e as reivindicações políticas por um melhor arranjo social, com considerações sociais, políticas, econômicas e ecológicas do ponto de vista das mulheres.

Abstract: Status is an important factor for the emerging powers of the Global South and they seek to increase their international standing by revising the global hierarchy. At the same time, they must choose among international strategies: to imitate, challenge or follow alternatives of international mobility in relation to the great powers. Faced with this dilemma, how much have emerging powers prioritized the Global South and North over time? Knowing that presidential diplomacy is one of the status markers of the contemporary international system, this study tested the following hypothesis: international organizations from the Global South received, on average, more visits from heads of state/government of emerging powers than other types of organization. We monitored the presidential diplomacy of South Africa, Brazil, China and India between 1998 and 2019. The number of visits by heads of state/government was collected through secondary data bases, the Rising Powers Diplomatic Network and China Visits. The hypothesis was tested through descriptive statistics, generating a stable longitudinal metric to monitor the degree of prioritization between destinations in the North or South by the four countries analyzed. The results indicate that the average number of visits to the Global South was higher for South Africa (59.9% of visits), Brazil (55.7%), China (53.3%), but not for India (44.4%). The findings indicate that emerging powers, in general, prioritized destinations in the Global South in comparison to those in the Global North, validating our working hypothesis.

Resumo: O status é um fator importante para as potências emergentes do Sul Global e elas buscam aumentar sua estima internacional, revisando a hierarquia global. Concomitantemente, precisam tomar escolhas diferentes de estratégias internacionais: imitar, desafiar ou seguir vias alternativas de mobilidade internacional em relação às potências tradicionais. Diante deste dilema, o quanto as potências emergentes priorizaram o Sul e o Norte Globais ao longo do tempo? Sabendo que a diplomacia presidencial é um dos marcadores de status do sistema internacional contemporâneo, este trabalho testou a seguinte hipótese: organizações internacionais do Sul Global receberam mais visitas de chefes de Estado/governo de potências emergentes do que outros tipos de organização. Acompanhamos a diplomacia presidencial de África do Sul, Brasil, China e Índia entre 1998 e 2019. O número de visitas presidenciais foi coletado através dos bancos de dados Rising Powers Diplomatic Network e China Visits. A hipótese foi testada através da estatística descritiva, gerando uma métrica longitudinal estável para monitorar o grau de priorização entre destinos do Norte ou do Sul pelos quatro países analisados. Os resultados indicam que a média de visitas ao Sul Global foi superior para a África do Sul (59,9% das viagens), Brasil (55,7%) e China (53,3%), mas não para a Índia (44,4%). Os achados indicam que as potencias emergentes, em geral, priorizaram organizações do Sul Global em comparação a destinos do Norte Global, validando nossa hipótese de trabalho.

Resumen: El estatus es un factor importante para las potencias emergentes del Sur Global que buscan aumentar su posición internacional mediante la revisión de la jerarquía global. Al mismo tiempo, tienen que elegir entre estrategias internacionales: imitar, desafiar o seguir alternativas de movilidad internacional en relación con las grandes potencias. Frente a este dilema, ¿cuánto han priorizado las potencias emergentes al Sur y al Norte Globales a lo largo del tiempo? Sabiendo que la diplomacia presidencial es uno de los marcadores de estatus del sistema internacional contemporáneo, este estudio probó la siguiente hipótesis: las organizaciones internacionales del Sur Global recibieron, en promedio, más visitas de jefes de estado/gobierno de potencias emergentes que otros tipos de organizaciones. Monitoreamos la diplomacia presidencial de Sudáfrica, Brasil, China e India entre 1998 y 2019. El número de visitas de jefes de estado/gobierno se recopiló a través de bases de datos secundarias, Rising Powers Diplomatic Network y China Visits. La hipótesis se contrastó mediante estadística descriptiva, generando una métrica longitudinal estable para monitorear el grado de priorización entre destinos del Norte o del Sur por parte de los cuatro países analizados. Los resultados indican que el promedio de visitas al Sur Global fue mayor para Sudáfrica (59,9 % de las visitas), Brasil (55,7 %), China (53,3 %), pero no para India (44,4 %). Los hallazgos indican que las potencias emergentes, en general, priorizaron los destinos del Sur Global en comparación con los del Norte Global, lo que valida nuestra hipótesis de trabajo.

This article investigates whether there is evidence of a “rise and fall” of emerging powers over the past 20 years in the eyes of public opinion. We compared several national and regional surveys on the foreign policies of South Africa, Brazil, and Turkey in search of signs of endorsement or disapproval of the more assertive foreign policies exercised by these countries. The results suggest a pronounced rise and decline for Ankara and some decline for Brasília; however, the results are inconclusive for Pretoria. The present work seeks to contribute to the debate on status and regional leadership by adding a public opinion and comparative regionalism perspective, in addition to offering a convenient summary of diplomatic surveys for countries of the Global South.

Résumé L’article examine s’il y a des indices d’une « ascension et déclin » des puissances émergentes au cours des 20 dernières années aux yeux de l’opinion publique. Nous avons comparé plusieurs enquêtes nationales et régionales sur les politiques étrangères de l'Afrique du Sud, du Brésil et de la Turquie à la recherche de signes d’approbation ou de désapprobation des politiques extérieures plus assertives menées par ces pays. Les résultats suggèrent une augmentation et un déclin prononcés de la part d’Ankara, un certain déclin pour Brasilia, mais ne sont pas conclusifs pour Pretoria. L’article cherche à contribuer au débat sur le statut et le leadership régional en ajoutant une perspective d’opinion publique et de régionalisme comparé, en plus d’offrir un résumé pratique des enquêtes sur la diplomatie des pays du Sud Global.

Resumen El artículo investiga si hay evidencia de un “ascenso y queda” de potencias emergentes en los últimos 20 años en la opinión pública. Comparamos encuestas nacionales y regionales sobre las políticas exteriores de Sudáfrica, Brasil y Turquía en busca de evidencia de apoyo o desaprobación de las políticas exteriores más asertivas ejercidas por estos países. Los resultados sugieren un pronunciado aumento y declive para Ancara, algo de declive para Brasilia, pero no son ciertos para Pretoria. El artículo busca contribuir al debate sobre status y liderazgo regional agregando una perspectiva de opinión pública y regionalismo comparado, además de ofrecer un resumen conveniente de las encuestas diplomáticas para los países del Sur Global.

Resumo O artigo investiga se há evidência de uma “ascensão e queda” das potências emergentes nos últimos 20 anos aos olhos da opinião pública. Comparamos diversos surveys nacionais e regionais sobre a política externa da África do Sul, Brasil e Turquia em busca de indícios de endosso ou reprovação das políticas exteriores mais assertivas exercitadas por esses países. Os resultados sugerem uma ascensão e declínio pronunciados para Ancara, algum declínio para Brasília, mas são inconclusivos para Pretoria. O artigo busca contribuir com o debate sobre status e liderança regional agregando perspectivas de opinião pública e regionalismo comparado, além de oferecer um sumário conveniente de surveys diplomáticos para países do Sul Global.

ABSTRACT Analyzing the impact of harvest-time drying data is crucial for successful storage and maintaining regulatory seed quality. This study aimed to assess the performance of fixed and mobile dryers using machine learning techniques. Data were collected from convective dryers, including the total number of dryers used, drying time (in hours), moisture percentages at the product’s entrance and exit, and the humidity difference between them. The study employed the Filtered Clusterer model, which utilizes the Simple K-Means technique and the Resample filter to group data based on similarities. The findings indicated distinct differences between fixed and mobile drying systems, with well-defined variations within each system. The algorithm, combined with the applied filters, proved effective in unsupervised classification by identifying and reducing inter-cluster similarity within the fixed system, thereby creating distinct classes within the dataset. In conclusion, the algorithm successfully clustered the scattered dataset and accurately classified and minimized inter-cluster similarity within the fixed system. Conversely, the mobile system exhibited low drying efficiency.

RESUMO Analisar os efeitos de dados de secagem em época de safra é primordial para o sucesso do armazenamento, além de manter a qualidade fisiológica das sementes. O objetivo com este trabalho foi avaliar o desempenho de secagem em secadores fixo e móveis através de aprendizado de máquinas. Os dados foram coletados de secadores convectivos, com base em: i) total de secadores trabalhados; ii) tempo de duração de secagem (horas); iii) percentual de umidade na entrada e saída do produto (%); e iv) diferenças de umidade entres ambas (%). Foi utilizado o modelo Filtered Clusterer, baseado na técnica Simple K-Means e filtro Resample, para agrupar dados com base em suas similaridades. Os resultados apresentados demonstram que o sistema de secagem é distinto entre os equipamentos fixo e móvel, com diferenças bem definidas dentro dos sistemas de secagem estabelecidos. O algoritmo juntamente com os filtros demonstrou ser eficiente na classificação não supervisionada, identificando e minimizando similaridade inter-cluster do sistema fixo definindo em classes distintas dentro do conjunto de dados. Conclui-se, que o conjunto de dados dispersos são agrupados de modo que o algoritmo classifica e minimiza similaridade inter-cluster do sistema fixo com alta precisão. Por outro lado, o desempenho da secagem em sistema móvel apresentou baixa eficiência.

How are the subjects of energy and energy justice discussed within multilateral forums? Given the significance of this subject and the disparities among nations, examining how energy-related matters are addressed in intergovernmental arenas reveals how governments manage the implications of inequalities in basic needs, such as energy. To investigate the phenomenon, we monitored how the seven categories identified in the literature – ‘Efficiency’, ‘Access to Energy’, ‘Renewable Energies’, ‘Capacity Building’, ‘Research and Development’, ‘Technology Transfer’, and ‘Financing’ – were evoked in multilateral discussions. Specifically, we used the ‘UN General Assembly Sponsorship Dataset’ to identify, through content analysis, 59 draft resolutions that mentioned these energy themes between 2000 and 2020. We analyzed this corpus and detailed the themes, their combination, and the most involved countries. Through cluster analysis and correspondence analysis, we identified three major groups of themes, ‘Access to energy’, ‘Technology’ and ‘Energy Transition’, while ‘Capacity Building’ appeared as a cross-cutting issue. We also identified that large multilateral groups were an important factor driving engagement with the topic, as G77 members, and specially those pertaining to Central and South Asia, were among the most active players.

RESUMO Finalidade: A natureza efêmera da moda fast tem influenciado uma mudança de pensamento de pessoas ao redor do mundo acerca das suas práticas de produção e consumo. Esta mudança de comportamento social vem sendo percebida, pois pessoas questionam a atual maneira de consumir e provocam o que tem sido nomeado de slow fashion. Desta maneira, como se dá a adesão de ‘práticas’ de consumo de moda, tidas como slow fashion por mulheres jovens, grupo etário inserido na classificação millennials? Seria uma transição do fast ao slow? Metodologia: Esta pesquisa é de abordagem qualitativa e quanto a seu tipo se classifica como exploratória, fazendo uso da entrevista como técnica de coleta de dados. Resultados: Os resultados apontaram um consumo assíduo dentro do grande varejo de fast fashion, decorrente de fatores como preços baixos, comodidade e fácil acesso. Contudo, as entrevistadas apresentaram tendências de posicionamento para o consumo de produtos slow. Originalidade: Conclui-se que o fast fashion, até o momento, é a prática concreta e hegemônica do consumo de moda, não sendo possível visualizá-la como ex-prática, posto que os três critérios de sua classificação ainda se mantêm conectados. Quanto ao slow, este se encontra um estado de proto-prática, pois são identificados elementos componentes, mas as conexões ainda não foram realizadas.

ABSTRACT Purpose: The ephemeral nature of fast fashion has influenced a change in people’s thinking around the world about its production and consumption practices. This change in social behavior has been noticed, as people question the current way of consuming and provoke what has been called slow fashion. In this way, how is the adherence to ‘practices’ of fashion consumption, considered as slow fashion, by young women, an age group inserted in the millennials classification? Would it be a transition from fast to slow? Design/methodology/approach: This research has a qualitative approach, and its type is classified as exploratory, making use of the interview as a data collection technique. Findings: The results showed a steady consumption within the large retail of fast fashion due to low prices, convenience, and easy access. However, the interviewees showed trends in positioning for the consumption of slow products. Originality/value: It is concluded that fast fashion, until nowadays, is the concrete and hegemonic practice of fashion consumption, and it is not possible to view it as an ex-practice, since the three criteria of its classification still remain connected. As for slow fasion, this is in a proto-practice state, as component elements are identified, but connections have not yet been made.

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has placed considerable psychological stress on frontline healthcare workers (HCWs). OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the prevalence of burnout syndrome among HCWs facing the COVID-19 outbreak. DESIGN AND SETTING: Cross-sectional study conducted in six public intensive care units (ICUs) in the city of Fortaleza, Brazil. METHODS: An online survey was conducted among HCWs to measure the three dimensions of burnout. RESULTS: A total of 62 physicians (23.4%), 65 nurses (24.5%), 58 nurse technologists (21.9%) and 80 physiotherapists (30.2%) completed the questionnaire. Nearly half of the participants (48.6%) had high levels of emotional exhaustion, and almost one-third of them (29.4%) had high levels of depersonalization. Low levels of professional efficacy were observed in 18.1% of the sample. The independent determinants of depersonalization burnout were age < 33 years (odds ratio, OR 2.03; 95% confidence interval, CI 1.15-3.56; P = 0.01) and female gender (OR 0.33; 95% CI 0.18-0.62; P = 0.01). Increased workload was associated with both depersonalization (OR 2.37; 95% CI 2.02-5.50; P = 0.04) and emotional exhaustion (OR 1.89; 95% CI 1.04-3.58; P = 0.030). CONCLUSION: The COVID-19 pandemic has had a great impact on the dimensions of depersonalization and emotional exhaustion. Consideration of these dimensions is important when designing future burnout prevention programs for frontline personnel.

This work developed ternary films based on Poly(Lactic Acid) (PLA), Cloisite 30B (C30B) and Oregano Essential Oil (OEO) as proposal to be applied in food packaging. The films thus manufactured were unscathed, with reduced surface defects. Their thickness and moisture content varied according to the composition and content of each component in the formulation. Optical micrographs indicated a homogeneous morphology, with good distribution of clay in the matrix. FTIR data confirms the incorporation of OEO into the films. TGA analysis indicated that the thermal stability of the films was not significantly affected by the incorporation of C30B and OEO. OEO incorporation did not promote an efficient antimicrobial action which is probably due to its retention by the clay. Further studies are needed to confirm this hypothesis. The combination between C30B and OEO in the PLA polymeric matrix is a promising proposal.

ABSTRACT Capnocytophaga canimorsus is a gram-negative rod that is part of the commensal microbiota of dogs’ and cats’ mouths. In this case, we report an 85-year-old man with COVID-19 who had his right arm bitten by a dog. His symptoms were impaired consciousness, agitation and aggressive behavior. Physical examination revealed neck stiffness and Brudzinski’s sign. The cerebrospinal fluid culture was compatible with Capnocytophaga canimorsus. He required intensive care and received a 14-day prescription of meropenem. After 40 days of hospitalization, the patient was fully recovered and was discharged. This case highlights the importance of physician and microbiologist be awareness of this disease, mainly in patients with neurological symptoms after a dog or cat bite.
