Este livro é fruto das vivências no projeto de extensão universitária da UNICENTRO denominado “HumanizAção: grupo de apoio para pais de recém-nascidos prematuros”, implantado em uma Unidade de Terapia Intensiva Neonatal (UTIN) de um hospital filantrópico de Irati – PR. Traz para estudantes e profissionais de saúde uma criação coletiva que busca contribuir para a construção do conhecimento e estimulação de novas práticas de cuidado em saúde.
The immediate goal of this Special Issue was the characterization of land uses and occupations (LULC) in watersheds and the assessment of impacts caused by anthropogenic activities. The goal was immediate because the ultimate purpose was to help bring disturbed watersheds to a better condition or a utopian sustainable status. The steps followed to attain this objective included publishing studies on the understanding of factors and variables that control hydrology and water quality changes in response to human activities. Following this first step, the Special Issue selected work that described adaption measures capable of improving the watershed condition (water availability and quality), namely LULC conversions (e.g., monocultures into agro-forestry systems). Concerning the LULC measures, however, efficacy was questioned unless supported by public programs that force consumers to participate in concomitant costs, because conversions may be viewed as an environmental service.
Trata-se de um estudo monográfico do autor sobre o Prof. Doutor António Augusto da Costa Simões, que foi professor catedrático da Faculdade de Medicina e reitor da Universidade de Coimbra e a personalidade mais rica e de maior vulto que, ao longo dos séculos, nasceu e viveu no concelho da Mealhada e uma das mais resplandecentes, com projeção nacional e internacional, que passaram pela intelectualidade da cidade de Coimbra, que, além de ser palco e feitora da sua formação, foi também a principal beneficiária de toda a sua obra, atividade científica e académica. Este estudo, dedicado ao homem e à obra de Costa Simões, está dividido em seis capítulos: no primeiro, são traçad...
The recent global financial and economic crisis has had surprising effects on several economies worldwide. This global event has promoted the discussion on how ethical, transparent, and rigorous the accountability of public sector institutions is. However, public manager accountability is translated into a vision that goes beyond its sphere of activity, demanding information on how public resources have been managed based on the maximization of social welfare and sustainable development. Tools, Strategies, and Practices for Modern and Accountable Public Sector Management is an essential reference source that discusses the process behind how public resources are managed as well as how they are coordinated to achieve collective success. Featuring research on topics such as corporate responsibility, fiscal accountability, and public administration, this book is ideally designed for researchers, managers, financial authorities, auditors, public managers, public administrators, regulatory authorities, accountants, professionals, and students involved with the accountability and reform of public management in local governments.

Molecular Typing in Bacterial Infections covers common bacterial pathogenic agents, with the most effective methods for their identification and classification in the light of their specific epidemiology. The book will be a valuable resource for molecular typing of infectious diseases agents encountered in both the research and hospital clinical lab settings, as well as culture collections. Each chapter provides an overview of molecular approaches to typing bacterial pathogens. Part I gives a general overview of typing methods used in the traditional microbiology laboratory in comparison to molecular methods of epidemiology. In Part II, the relative strengths and weaknesses of the different methods applicable to the specific agents of infectious diseases are emphasized. Specific emphasis is placed on recent changes and updates in molecular typing.
Os ensaios aqui reunidos são de pesquisadoras e pesquisadores de diversas instituições de ensino superior do Brasil, os quais utilizam como aporte teórico, principalmente, os estudos de gênero, a crítica feminista e transfeminista. Assim, possuindo 17 capítulos, a presente publicação traz pesquisas que variam em análises para além do âmbito literário e que buscam contribuir com esse campo de estudo que está em constante atualização, haja vista que segue o desenvolvimento social e a luta do movimento feminista. Tais pesquisas possibilitam o ato de refletir, de forma plural e não essencialista, as figuras femininas e sua relação com as artes. Ademais, apresentam visões de mundo femininas, nas quais o papel e a imagem que se tem das mulheres podem ser reavaliados de forma crítica, uma vez que apresentam ideias que tornam possível ver e compreender essa autorrepresentação como um caminho para a liberdade intelectual e autonomia feminina.
