This book describes in detail the multidisciplinary management of obesity, providing readers with a thorough understanding of the rationale for a multidisciplinary approach and with the tools required to implement it effectively. The emphasis is on a translational approach, starting from basic concepts and fundamental mechanisms of the pathology and clinical morbidity. Experts in the field discuss the full range of relevant topics, including the significance of physical exercise, psychological issues, nutritional strategies, pharmacological options and bariatric surgery. Put another way, the book covers all aspects from the bench to the bedside. Physicians, scientists and postgraduate students will all find it to be invaluable in understanding the causes and optimal management of obesity, which has rapidly become a major public health problem.
Atualmente, há uma carência de infraestrutura estatal, consistente na destinação de bens móveis e imóveis ao controle e à fiscalização do atendimento de normas ambientais, emergindo a necessidade de uma estrutura organizacional da Administração Pública, cuja finalidade seria a de compatibilizar o incremento de infraestruturas com o equilíbrio socioambiental. Esse controle requer uma abordagem interdisciplinar, o que permite a compreensão da totalidade da situação e a escolha das melhores estratégias de intervenção, além de abrir caminho para a relação de interação entre as diversas áreas. É esse contexto, de evidente necessidade de máxima mobilização social e car...
O Poder Judiciário brasileiro enfrenta uma crise em razão das crescentes demandas judiciais intentadas perante o órgão. Nesse contexto, a busca por métodos alternativos de solução de conflitos culminou no surgimento de um novo paradigma jurídico: a desjudicialização. Diante disso, o presente trabalho objetivou analisar a relação entre a desjudicialização e a função notarial e registral, com o intuito de demonstrar sua contribuição para o desenvolvimento desse novo paradigma jurídico. Pretendeu-se, ainda, demonstrar a eficácia da desjudicialização, por meio das serventias extrajudiciais e seus benefícios. Para atingir esse objetivo, se fez necessário contextualizar o f...
Esta coletânea reúne ensaios de pesquisadores e ativistas dos direitos humanos de pessoas LGBTI+ (lésbicas, gays, bissexuais, transgêneros, intersexuais e outras identidades não heterossexuais) a partir de um olhar interdisciplinar do direito e das ciências sociais. Apesar de o Brasil figurar entre as nações que asseguram direitos reivindicados por essas populações, é ainda o país que mais mata LGBTI+ no mundo. Diante desse cenário contraditório, a obra propõe ao leitor um balanço crítico do processo de reconhecimento trilhado até aqui e uma discussão realista em torno dos desafios postos àqueles que se preocupam, teórica e praticamente, com a garantia de existência digna e cidadã dos LGBTI+.
This detailed volume presents a variety of specialized analytical methods on a wide range of glycolipids. From sphingoglycolipids to lipid A, an immune system stimulant present in lipopolysaccharide, the book delves into how glycolipid structure on the surface of the cell membrane, which characterizes each organism, is crucial for the coexistence or repulsion between organisms. In addition, glycolipids play an important role in infections in animals and other organisms by targeting host cell membranes, if enveloped viruses are considered as living organisms. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introduction to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step and readily reproducible laboratory protocols, as well as tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and practical, Glycolipids: Methods and Protocols serves as an ideal guide to the most advanced glycolipid research in an effort to help researchers make their research more fruitful.
In recent decades, hundreds of millions of people across the world have moved from rural areas to metropolitan regions, some of them crossing national borders on the way. While urbanization and globalization are proceeding with an intensity that seems unprecedented, these are only the most recent iterations of long-term transformations—cities have for centuries served as vital points of contact between different peoples, economies, and cultures. Making Cities Global explores the intertwined development of urbanization and globalization using a historical approach that demonstrates the many forms transnationalism has taken, each shaped by the circumstances of a particular time and place. It...
