Advances In ME/CFS Research and Clinical Care
In 2015, the Institute of Medicine (USA) issued a report critical of the research effort and clinical care for ME/CFS (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) formerly known as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) and Chronic Fatigue Immune Deficiency Syndrome (CFIDS). While worldwide investigation into the cause and nature of ME/CFS remains disproportionately small, and treatment remains symptomatic and controversial, modest research continues in all aspects of this disease: epidemiology, possible infectious origins and other triggers, possible involvement of genetics, metabolism, and microbiome, influence of co-morbid conditions, and more. Treatment of patients consists of providing symptomatic relief. Guidance in doing so is provided for the clinician. School-age children require not only treatment but, as revealed in a 25-year retrospective study, continued engagement with peers and social activity. This e-book explores the breadth and depth of current ME/CFS research and clinical care. Its impact for other chronic, complex illnesses should not be overlooked.
Um olhar sobre a coleta de resíduos de serviços de saúde e os riscos de infecção pelas hepatites B e C associados
Neste livro se elucidam perguntas muito relevantes para o entendimento dos riscos provenientes do manejo dos resíduos sólidos. O autor se, Marcos Mol, se apropria de novas abordagens para além da engenharia sanitária, agregando elementos da epidemiologia, do campo da saúde do trabalhador, da infectologia e das ciências sociais, na busca por responder questões de pesquisa relacionadas ao risco de infecção dos trabalhadores na coleta de resíduos de serviços de saúde e de resíduos sólidos domiciliares no município de Belo Horizonte/MG. Assim, o trabalho aqui apresentado beneficia-se também de uma fecundação interinstitucional, assimilando culturas científicas diferentes, e ganhando em densidade e em diversidade de visões.
Dicionário dos negacionismos no Brasil
A dimensão da atual crise da democracia no Brasil torna-se evidente pelos constantes ataques à instituiççoes, à imprensa livre, à setores marginalizados como os homosexuais, os professores de esquerda e os imigrantes.Os professors José Szwarko e José Luiz Ratton apontam outras dimensões, que têm raízes profundas na vida social.Os verbetes do Dicionário apresentam conteúdos e debates científicos,elaborados por experts das mais diversas áreas do conhecimento e vinculados a instituições nacionais e estrangeiras.Os termos debatidos estão sempre ligados aos conflitos desenrolados ao redor da ciência e contra ela.
Computational Processing of the Portuguese Language
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 7th International Workshop on Computational Processing of the Portuguese Language, PROPOR 2006. The 20 revised full papers and 17 revised short papers presented here are organized in topical sections on automatic summarization, resources, translation, named entity recognition, tools and frameworks, systems and models, information extraction, speech processing, lexicon, morpho-syntactic studies, and Web, corpus and evaluation.
The Atlantic Forest
The Atlantic Forest is one of the 36 hotspots for biodiversity conservation worldwide. It is a unique, large biome (more than 3000 km in latitude; 2500 in longitude), marked by high biodiversity, high degree of endemic species and, at the same time, extremely threatened. Approximately 70% of the Brazilian population lives in the area of this biome, which makes the conflict between biodiversity conservation and the sustainability of the human population a relevant issue. This book aims to cover: 1) the historical characterization and geographic variation of the biome; 2) the distribution of the diversity of some relevant taxa; 3) the main threats to biodiversity, and 4) possible opportunities to ensure the biodiversity conservation, and the economic and social sustainability. Also, it is hoped that this book can be useful for those involved in the development of public policies aimed at the conservation of this important global biome.
Dynamics of the Pantanal Wetland in South America
This book provides readers with in-depth insights into the changes in the Pantanal wetland from its formation to the actual and likely future states. It reveals that today’s Pantanal is an evolutionary consequence of geological, ecological and, more recently, man-made events taking place at distinct space-time intervals. Topics include geotectonics and sun-earth interactions, which largely dictate the rate of drastic changes that eventually disrupt ecological stability and radically rebuild the regional landscape. Furthermore, the biota-climate system is discussed as a major driver reshaping the ecohydrology functioning of the landscape on an intermediate timescale. Also covered are major changes in the landscape ecohydrology and biodiversity due to recent land-use and climate changes induced by humankind in the Anthropocene. The ability to recognize how those temporal scales impact the Pantanal wetland provides the opportunity for wise management approaches and the sustainable development of the region.
Beyond Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) are serious, debilitating conditions that affect millions of people in the United States and around the world. ME/CFS can cause significant impairment and disability. Despite substantial efforts by researchers to better understand ME/CFS, there is no known cause or effective treatment. Diagnosing the disease remains a challenge, and patients often struggle with their illness for years before an identification is made. Some health care providers have been skeptical about the serious physiological - rather than psychological - nature of the illness. Once diagnosed, patients often complain of receiving hostility from their health...
