This study sought to understand the perception of users, workers and municipal managers in relation to access and quality of Primary Health Care (PHC) services. An exploratory field research was carried out, with a qualitative approach, in which an individual semi-structured script was used for each population interviewed remotely, being transcribed and analyzed according to content analysis and analyzing flowchart. It was possible to identify changes in the PHC flow and its relationship with the Health Care Network (RAS); the potential and difficulties involving access and quality of services at the gateway to the SAN before and during the covid-19 pandemic. These changes affected essential attributes of PHC, such as longitudinality, coordination of care, bonding with the user and health resoluteness, revealing a disjointed RAS, reflections of the process of dismantling the Unified Health System.

Considering the context of the Covid-19 pandemic, in which rules regarding the precautions with the pandemic have been presented inconsistently by different authorities (e.g., health organizations versus political leaders), the objective of the study was to evaluate the effects of presenting discrepant rules spoken by speakers with different levels of authority (adult teacher and child) on children's maintenance of rule compliance, as well as determining whether the level of authority differentially affects the following of discrepant rules. Twelve children aged 7 to 9 years participated in the study and were exposed to a Matching To Sample (MTS) choice task in a single session with 100 trials divided into 5 blocks. In blocks 1, 3 and 5, the rule presented by the computer corresponded to the contingency. In blocks 2 and 4, a rule that differed from the contingencies was presented by speakers with different levels of authority. To control for the order effect, half of the participants were first exposed to the presentation of the discrepant rule by the higher level of authority figure, the adult teacher, and then by the lower level of authorityfigure, the child, while the other half were exposed to the opposite order. The results indicated that the levels of authority manipulated in this study did not differentially influence the maintenance of the discrepant rule-following. Although the average number of correct answers for the lowest level of authority (child) was lower than for the highest level, the difference between them was not statistically significant. It was argued that, considering the authority variable as a social variable, the online procedure may not have favored the establishment of speakers as authorities of different levels.

In this thesis, we characterize the continuity of strongly singular Calderón-Zygmund operators of type $\sigma$ in Hardy spaces, weighted Hardy spaces and Hardy-Morrey spaces in the spirit of (Coifman and Meyer, 1977). In particular, we consider weaker integral Hormander-type conditions on the kernel. Calderón-Zygmund operators of this type include appropriate classes of pseudodifferential operators $OpS^{m}_{\sigma,\nu}(\Rn)$ and operators associated to standard $\delta$-kernels of type $\sigma$ introduced by Álvarez and Milman in (Álvarez and Milman, 1986). The method to obtain the boundedness properties refers to the atomic and molecular decomposition of such spaces. In particular, in order to obtain it for local Hardy spaces $h^p(\R^n)$ for $0

This monograph describes an experimental evaluation of sensitivity in the use of the Function Acquisition Speed Test (FAST) for learning history with collective health stimuli in 42 Brazilian university students. The experimental stimuli were images taken from public communications throughout Brazil and written words with positive and negative meanings in terms of health. The participants completed two blocks of trials that were considered stereotype-consistent linked to the guidelines of the World Health Organization (WHO) and the inconsistent block that went in the opposite direction of these guidelines. The objectives were to verify whether the FAST would be sensitive enough to measure the discrimination effect based on the participants' learning with stimuli related to collective and individual health and whether these results would correlate with the self-report measures collected through an online form, the collections in this study were also carried out at a distance. The results showed that 24 (57%) of the participants had faster learning rates in the stereotype-consistent block linked to WHO recommendations compared to the inconsistent blocks. The data indicate that the procedure is sensitive enough to quantify relationships between stimuli related to health care, the results of the self-report measures, however they were not predictive of the performance of the participants in the experimental task, the possible intervening variables are pointed out.

Descriptive cataloging guarantees the efficient and accurate retrieval of an informational resource through attributes that make it unique and individual in bibliographic catalogs, a consolidated practice in the fields of Librarianship and Information Science. In this context, the representation and description of paintings as an informational resource with specific characteristics, using metadata, can guarantee a better recovery in digital environments and potentially be applied in the Linked Data movement. In this way, the question is: how is the description of paintings, in the Linked Data scenario, being discussed in the scientific literature of the Information Science community? Considering the current technological panorama, marked by the Linked Data initiative, the objective is to identify studies that address the descriptive cataloging of works of art, with a view to: a) presenting the concepts and specificities of painting; b) analyzing and presenting the state-of-the-art on the cataloging of works of art, with emphasis on painting; c) analyze and discuss cases of painting cataloging with the Linked Data scenario. For this purpose, the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) is used as a research method to map the scientific production on the subject, based on the following categories of analysis: focus on the documents; examples and characteristics of projects, initiatives, and models for describing works of art in the light of Linked Data; and patterns of description used in cataloging paintings. As a result, 4 (four) thematic categories of the documentary corpus were identified, which stand out: Ontology model for description of cultural heritage; Representation model for virtual exhibitions; System for identifying colors in paintings; and rating model for recommending artwork attributions. It is concluded that, when taking into account the initiatives, experiences, and projects identified by RSL, it is clear that there are few works on the subject, and, as for those identified, these seek to create models for cataloging paintings, where it is understood if it is not necessarily due to the existence of a description standard already adapted to every type of resource and used in the digital environment, such as the Resource Description and Access (RDA). In addition, the adoption of metadata and metadata standards linked to Linked Data technologies enables the construction of open and connected catalogs, enhancing access, use, and reuse of paintings in digital environments.

Adolescence is often a neglected stage of human development. The opinions and perspectives of adolescents are more frequently than not left aside or evaluated from the perspective of the surrounding adults. This neglect is intensified with other characteristics the population may have that qualify them as a minority, such as being trans and facing several other stigmas. In the present research, this life stage and gender are perceived as social constructs built upon the development of peer interactions. Furthermore, it’s considered that the involvement in offending behavior is means to empower and create resilience to build identity. The general purpose of this research is to analyze the life context of a trans adolescent answering for offending behavior, for that matter, the researcher conducted a single case study through and ecological insertion and an interview that discussed themes such as identity, peer relationships, offending behavior and ways to manage power discrepancies. Through a thematic analysis of the data, results revealed a general profile of the adolescent and the context of his insertion in drug trafficking. It was identified that he nurtures a positive view of himself, despite requiring reaffirmation from peers and authority figures. Furthermore, some of the peers explored in the interview have major significance in the subject’s development and may be seen as resilience tutors, offering social support and encouragement. Despite the empowering role of the offending behavior, the research showed that the adolescent suffered through prejudice and discrimination for being trans in the trafficking environment. Through these results, it is possible to investigate new questions that arise and further understand the context of trans adolescents answering for offending behavior.

The learning process in early childhood education is one of the main foundations for a child’s education. In atypical cases, alternative measures with greater effectiveness are required, since each child is unique in relation to learning processes. Children with cerebral palsy may have their learning process compromised due to brain injuries. However, it is known that brain plasticity allows the formation of new connections that lead to learning, making it possible to activate reward and emotional systems through enjoyable activities. The objective of this work was to develop a game for touch-screen devices with user movement tracking, using assistive and rehabilitation technologies to support the literacy process of children with cerebral palsy. The platform includes computational tools to record movement paths and the time required, working on users’ cognition in a playful manner. The interface was developed in JavaScript and made available online free of charge. For this purpose, concepts of data analysis and programming were employed, based on information obtained from existing games. To ensure that children’s interaction occurred naturally and in a manner compatible with established literacy methods, the exercises were adapted from existing models. Maximum, minimum, and average values were recorded in a database composed of 200 sessions carried out on the platform. The platform described in this work proved to be a tool that enables (1) a complete learning process that maintains the foundation of previously developed methods while incorporating new playful and interactive tools; and (2) the verification of strategic data related to the child’s rehabilitation.

The Oil&Gas industry originated in 1859, when the first well was drilled in the United States. Since then, numerous discoveries and improvements have been made in the exploration process, from extraction to refining. Over the years, sector development research has focused on several fronts, always seeking to obtain greater exploration yields. Consequently, studies related to the water-in-oil emulsion, which constitutes crude oil, and its stabilization mechanisms gained the spotlight in research, to understand and improve the products used in the demulsification process. Studies have indicated the possibility of using different solvents with diverse chemical characteristics, such as polarity and aromaticity, to obtain a higher performance in water separation. Nowadays, there is still room for new discoveries related both to the exploration process and to the products sold by the specialized industry. Industries are still not exploring the full potential that solvents can have to increase yield or make this process greener. Because of this, this work focused on the bibliographic review of articles that seek to better understand the oil emulsion stabilization mechanism and on an overview of the mechanism of operation of demulsifiers. The information was validated from a case study. The study sought to evaluate, through a planning of solvent mixtures, the best formulation for different oils, this was possible mainly when using desirability as a methodology for analyzing the results. In this way, it was possible to compare literature results with the results obtained in the study and conclude that the mechanism proposals found in the articles seem to be consistent with the empirical part of the process, this opens the possibility of performing more in-depth studies, related to the synergy of solvents with commercial demulsifying bases to improve the crude-oil extraction and exploration process.

Bacterial biofilms are sessile communities of bacteria, where a single or multiple species establish themselves on biotic or abiotic surfaces and become embedded in a self-produced polymeric material, bringing them greater resistance to adverse environmental factors. Biofilms represent a major challenge in the food industry, as they become sources of contamination causing health risks to consumers and great economic losses. Among the biofilm-forming microorganisms, there are important food-borne pathogens that cause diseases, which include Salmonella enterica, Clostridium perfringens, Escherichia coli, and others. With advances in studies on bacterial biofilms, including the expression of genes involved in this process, new mechanisms to control the formation of biofilms have emerged, including the use of chemical treatments, essential oils, enzymatic breakdown, and others. This work aimed to compile the characteristics and mechanisms used in the formation of biofilms of the main foodborne pathogens, in addition to presenting the general understanding of some strategies used in the food industries and their actions on the formation of biofilms.

Psychedelic experiences are often characterized by the emergence of unconscious contents. Among the various types, those known as challenging or difficult bring intense negative emotions, such as fear and anguish, and can even be traumatic. However, these experiences can benefit individuals if they seek to understand them with professional help, by elaborating the emotions and content that arise – a process called integration. The present study aimed to provide a setting/opportunity for the integration of difficult and potentially traumatic experiences resulting from the use of psychedelic substances (LSD, LSA, or psilocybin). This is a qualitative study based on concepts from Psychoanalysis, mainly Winnicottian, to understand reports of challenging experiences. Two young adult female university students who had been in a challenging experience with LSD participated in the study. Each participant took part in four sessions of semi-structured clinical interviews based on the technique of free association. Additionally, the free drawing technique was used for aesthetic expression related to the challenging experience. The study was approved by the Ethics Committee on Human Research at the Federal University of São Carlos (Opinion No. 4.901.570, CAAE No. 48776121.7.0000.5504). The analysis was based on the construction of joint meanings between the researcher/participant pair, the application of psychoanalytic theoretical concepts, and an exploration of socio-cultural issues intricately linked to conflicts emerging from psychedelic experiences. With both participants, it was possible to integrate the challenging psychedelic experience, discovering connections between emerging content and pre-existing but less conscious conflicts. With this study, we hope to contribute to the bridging of Psychology and Psychoanalysis with reports stemming from psychedelic experiences, a gap that deserves to be discussed in the academic and professional spheres.

The application of heterogeneous catalysis for the oxidation of sulfides is a widely utilized method for the conversion to sulfones. In thought of that, the present study assessed the application os a catalyst composed of tungsten oxide and chitosan biomass to obtain sulfones and sulfoxides, evaluating different reactional factor important to this reaction, analyzing the conversion and selectivity. The applied WO3 was obtained by the method of coprecipitation and was then immobilized to the chitosan support, evaluating the percentages of 10, 20, and 40% of m/m of WO3/chitosan. This material was analyzed by XRD, Raman, SEM and EDS. They showed that the obtained WO3 has a monoclinic crystalline structure, the chitosan showed a amorphous nature, characteristic of carbon based materials while the WO3/chitosan compounds showed a similar crystalline structure to the WO3. Through Raman spectra and SEM and EDS analysis, it was possible to observe that there was no homogeneity in the distribution of WO3 over the support. The W ratio in the materials was calculated and found that 18.92, 30.62, and 45.04% of their weight was W for the 10, 20, and 40% WO3/chitosan synthesized. It was possible to obtain the values of time, temperature, WO3 ratio, solvent, oxidant and mass of catalyst being them 60°C, 120 minutes, 20% of WO3, and 10 mg of catalyst with 2 mL of acetonitrile and 25 µL of H2O2 as the optimal conditions for the formation of over 98% of sulfones, while for sulfoxides, methanol was used instead of acetonitrile, reaching 80% of selectivity. Then, the stability of the catalyst was observed, allowing the scaling of the process, maintaining the values of conversion. Evaluating the scope, it was observed that the catalyst was efficient for the oxidation of seven other sulfides. Finally, a mechanism was suggested with a main contribution of the hydroperoxyl radical and the deficit of electronic density. Therefore, the obtained catalyst showed itself as an excellent alternative to be applied in sulfide oxidation reactions.

Before the COVID-19 pandemic, the importance of teaching health and hygiene in schools was already recognized and documented, with theoretical content on the relevance of hygiene. However, even with the availability of these materials, many Brazilian schools still suffered from the spread of disease. With the arrival of the pandemic, new documents were prepared, further highlighting the importance of care within the school environment. To investigate the relationship between theory and practice with regard to health and hygiene, a literature review was carried out, focusing on four main documents: "Hygiene and Safety in Schools", "Programa Saúde na Escola (PSE) ", "National Curriculum Parameters (PCN)" and "Guide for the Implementation of Protocols for Returning Face-to-Face Activities in Basic Education Schools". To deepen the research, a practical investigation was carried out in a public basic education school in Sorocaba, state of São Paulo. Practical research led to the conclusion that, despite the existence of documents, schools, professionals and students need practical materials to guide healthy and hygienic practices, in order to avoid the proliferation of pathogens and increase students' understanding of the subject.

Random networks have been widely used to describe interactions between objects, including interpersonal relationships between individuals. One of the most important features of networks is the presence of communities, which are groups of nodes with similar patterns of connection. In this regard, we propose a model in which edges between pairs of vertices are randomly assigned, given the communities of those vertices, following the zero-inflated Poisson (ZIP) distribution. This proposal allows us to model networks with community structure that are sparse and have edge weights. The estimation of the parameters of the ZIP distribution is performed using the EM algorithm, while the estimation of communities is done using the EM-Variational algorithm. The performance of the estimators is evaluated through simulation studies, using the Normalized Mutual Information (NMI) comparison measure to compare the true and estimated communities. To compare the estimated parameters of the ZIP distribution, we use the Mean Squared Error (MSE). Finally, we apply the proposed model to airport networks in Brazil and detect the community structure from 2018 to 2021, in order to evaluate the changes that occurred in these networks before and during the COVID-19 pandemic period.

The text deals with information security concepts from the cloud point of view and uses Azure as an example provider. The definitions of infrastructure, platform and software services are contextualized, with examples based on the chosen provider, such as virtual machines, SQL databases and Web application services. are also presented introductory concepts about information security, such as security frameworks and the main types of cyber attacks following the list of OWASP, a worldwide organization for application security. And joining the concepts of cloud with security, some features offered by Azure to protect cloud applications are illustrated. As an application of the concepts, an architecture of a real project and its description “as is” are presented. The project deals with a data flow involving Azure Data Factory, Azure Databricks, Azure Storage Account, SQL Server, APP Service and other cloud resources. An analysis is carried out from the security point of view, and then a solution proposal is presented to resolve the flawed points. The main points presented as a solution are the use of isolated virtual networks, with strategic exposures on the internet through the Azure Application Gateway and the Azure VPN Gateway, as well as the use of a firewall such as the Web Application Firewall (WAF), the use of identity management like Azure Active Directory (AAD), and secrets management like Azure Key Vault. Finally, it is concluded that the redundancy of security policies contributes to the creation of a safer cloud solution, and that isolating the internet environment using virtual networks and applying Firewall policies and minimum access policies makes it difficult for intruders to access . It is also concluded that when provisioning a cloud solution, a large part of the responsibility is shared with the provider, which already has very well tested and validated security solutions and, therefore, reduces the risks of hacking.

The Southwest Paulista known as one of the least "developed" territories of the State of São Paulo (Brazil) has been promoting debates and discussing ways to leverage economic and social development. This discussion raises the importance of agribusiness as a generator of employment and income. It is a territory that historically relies on the presence of forestry, among other activities, and more recently has seen the advance of soybeans replacing the cultivation of beans. To contribute to the debate, our objective is to bring visibility to data from the Occupational Safety and Health Observatory, showing the ranking of the sectors with the most notifications of absences and deaths of workers in this region. We raised the hypothesis that it is precisely the sectors involved with agribusiness that are the ones that most present cases of worker leave and death. These data are usually hidden from the development debate, which, by prioritizing information on income and employment, disregard the advance of precarious work that results in more exploitation and violence in the worker's body and life. A bibliographic research was carried out based on a quali-quantitative approach, as well as the collection of data made available by the Occupational Safety and Health Observatory for the years 2010 to 2020. It was found that among the agribusiness sectors with notifications of accidents in the work at CAT, the sectors of forestry, citriculture and dairy production have a higher incidence of cases in the period from 2012 to 2020 in Southwest São Paulo.

The dairy activity in Brazil has an important social and economic role, it corresponds to the sourceof income of countless farmers, including family members. In 2017, the publication of the PaulistaDairy Beef Development Plan disclosed the significant reduction of milk producers in the country,indicating a more competitive scenario that would select the most technical and productive. In thiscontext, we propose to study the small milk producers in the Municipality of Angatuba, located inthe Southwest of São Paulo. This study aims to analyze the profile of these producers, the socioeconomic conditions and their production conditions, identifying from the information obtained, the difficulties and challenges faced. Against the trend of the state of São Paulo, when analyzing the data from the municipality of Angatuba, we realize that what happened was an increase in cattle farming. We then formulated the following question to support the analyses: whyin Angatuba did not occur the reduction of the area with cattle raising? What explains this phenomenon? Could we associate it with the specific characteristic of local production? What would be this characteristic found in small producers? To achieve the objectives of the study, the research included a bibliographical research and an empirical research characterized as exploratory,descriptive and interpretive. Interviews were carried out with 15 milk producers in the municipality, carried out through google forms, sent via WhatsApp, phone calls and in person, considered family farmer. It can be said that, for the producers who participated in the research, the main difficulties for the strengthening and permanence in the dairy activity are related to the lack of incentive for the dairy activity, instability of the price paid per liter of milk and the high cost of the inputs.

New technologies are being increasingly used in the business world, but not always in a sustainable way. There are different movements in the business world that raise questions about how it is possible to build a management (private or public) that produces technology and is still sustainable. Within the idea of innovation in management, there are paths such as technological innovation, organizational innovation and even behavioural organization. In addition to this concept, sustainability is also part of the main objective, as each innovation work structure currently must undergo a sustainable restructuring. Therefore, the objective of this article is to understand how sustainable innovations can exist in a business environment, that is, how to carry out an economically sustainable path in a company. The path to understanding the objective, which will make use of bibliographical research as a research methodology, will be traced through the understanding of what sustainability and innovation in management mean. It is concluded, therefore, that sustainability in the business environment is possible, but requires a continuous dialogue between companies and the world around them, always prioritizing man and the environment in which he is inserted.

Benzection is a practice with records from the period of the High Middle Ages, which remains in action and modernizing over time. In Brazil, the trade begins in the colonial period, at a time when medicine was scarce and with few professionals. In this context, the blessing helps in the treatment and cure of various diseases that afflict the popular, remaining in action in the contemporary period, existing and resisting in several locations in Brazil. This work proposes to address the origin of religiosity in man’s life, to analyze how syncretism was formed in colonial Brazil, context and development of benzection, as well as its forms of manifestations through the centuries, in an example within cultural geography. Counting on bibliographical research, essential for the accomplishment of this study, constituted by authors as Laura de Mello e Souza, Mircea Eliade, Silvia Federici and others. From these authors, we seek to understand how the practice of benzedeiras was formed and its characteristics and adaptations, addressing reports of this formation and how they were seen by society. The general objective of the research is to understand the popular healers, considering the oral tradition and the rite in the process of social interaction, with the purpose of understanding the origin, formation and permanence of these practices that are linked to culture, religion and popular medicine, interpreting the established interpersonal relationships, which keep the tradition still current. The research allowed the analysis of the profile of benzedeiras and from it was constituted the corpus of this work.

The agricultural sector in recent years has shown an increase in demand for water and nutrients, however, human activities have impacted negatively on the availability of these resources in nature, where the natural distribution of water that was already disproportionate on planet Earth, has become more intense. An alternative to mitigate the low availability of water and fertilizers, in a sustainable way, is the application of treated domestic wastewater, which can meet the water demand of plants, besides being a source of nutrients and organic matter. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the main impacts of the application of treated domestic wastewater in protected cultivation of anthurium (Anthurium andraeanum). The experiment was conducted in suspended benches, where the anthurium plants were grown in coconut fiber inside Styrofoam troughs, in protected cultivation. The three treatments applied were: (TRA) treated domestic effluent supplemented with mineral fertilizers, (TA) drinking water supplemented with mineral fertilizers and (TR) treated domestic effluent only. The experiment was performed in a randomized block design, in which quantitative data were subjected to the Tukey test at 5% and Shapiro-Wilk test to attest the normality of the data. The results collected showed that when applying only the treated domestic wastewater (TR), the plants presented nutritional deficiency and low productivity. The biometric parameters (stem length, spadix, spathe, largest leaf and number of flowers) and productivity resulting from the TRA treatment showed no statistical difference in relation to the TA treatment, proving that by using treated domestic effluent the high productivity was maintained with the economy of 3.5 m3 of drinking water and 21.8% of mineral fertilizers. Even with the detection of the presence of Escherichia coli in the treated domestic effluent, the cultivation was considered safe with the absence of contamination in the plants. Thus, it is concluded that the application of treated domestic wastewater as an alternative and sustainable source of water and fertilizers on coconut fiber substrate in a protected environment was feasible in anthurium cultivation, without compromising the health safety of the professionals involved.
