Gestão do conhecimento e gestão de processos de negócios: uma aplicação para melhoria na produção de vídeos / Knowledge management and business process management (BPM): an application for improvement in video production

Este artigo analisa o processo de inserção de vídeo em um sistema de TV de uma emissora no Espírito Santo desde a captação até a disponibilidade do produto para exibição. Identificam-se os pontos que causam efeito negativo tanto no sistema como no fluxo produtivo e propõe-se um modelo que aplica ferramentas baseadas em Gestão de Processos de Negócios - Business Process Management (BPM) – e Gestão do Conhecimento (GC). A solução proposta concentra-se em filtrar o material antes mesmo da sua inserção no sistema. Percebe-se a GC como fundamental no que se refere aos treinamentos e conscientização dos membros da equipe, bem como o compartilhamento do conhecimento adquirido e o BPM no que tange ao planejamento, modelagem do processo, melhoria, controle e análise quantitativa dos dados. Através da aplicação do modelo proposto, espera-se gerar uma redução de 17,50% em ocupação do sistema com material desnecessário gerado pelas matérias dos telejornais, sendo 3,52% a redução advinda da solução tecnológica e 13,98% correspondentes à redução obtida por meio dos treinamentos aos cinegrafistas e repórteres. Em relação ao número de clipes, uma redução de 22,57%, sendo 17,09% atribuídos aos treinamentos e 5,48% de redução no número de clipes obtidos pela solução tecnológica

AVALIAÇÃO DOS PONTOS DE VULNERABILIDADE OCASIONADOS PELA AÇÃO SOLAR NUMA MICROBACIA HIDROGRÁFICA NO SEMI-ÁRIDO DA PARAÍBA

Points of vulnerability caused by the solar action had been evaluated in a drainage micro basin in the semiarid of Paraíba, during a translation from October, 2003 to September, 2004 in the “Estação Experimental Bacia Escola – CCA/UFPB”, in São João do Cariri-PB. Five points of determination in a toposequence had been defined and they had been analyzed according to: meteorological variables, potential evapotranspiration and dendrometry. The biggest incidence of global solar radiation, reflected radiation, absorbed radiation and insolation, had been verified in August, September, October, November and December, coinciding with the months of bigger taxes of evapotranspiration. The amplitude of annual variation of the cloudiness in the region is relatively small, varying from 5 to 8/10 during the year. It is advisable not to leave the soil uncovered, since the erosive factors are more intense in such situation.

Photography-based taxonomy is inadequate, unnecessary, and potentially harmful for biological sciences

The question whether taxonomic descriptions naming new animal species without type specimen(s) deposited in collections should be accepted for publication by scientific journals and allowed by the Code has already been discussed in Zootaxa (Dubois & Nemésio 2007; Donegan 2008, 2009; Nemésio 2009a–b; Dubois 2009; Gentile & Snell 2009; Minelli 2009; Cianferoni & Bartolozzi 2016; Amorim et al. 2016). This question was again raised in a letter supported by 35 signatories published in the journal Nature (Pape et al. 2016) on 15 September 2016. On 25 September 2016, the following rebuttal (strictly limited to 300 words as per the editorial rules of Nature) was submitted to Nature, which on 18 October 2016 refused to publish it. As we think this problem is a very important one for zoological taxonomy, this text is published here exactly as submitted to Nature, followed by the list of the 493 taxonomists and collection-based researchers who signed it in the short time span from 20 September to 6 October 2016

Mortality from gastrointestinal congenital anomalies at 264 hospitals in 74 low-income, middle-income, and high-income countries: a multicentre, international, prospective cohort study

Summary Background Congenital anomalies are the fifth leading cause of mortality in children younger than 5 years globally. Many gastrointestinal congenital anomalies are fatal without timely access to neonatal surgical care, but few studies have been done on these conditions in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs). We compared outcomes of the seven most common gastrointestinal congenital anomalies in low-income, middle-income, and high-income countries globally, and identified factors associated with mortality. Methods We did a multicentre, international prospective cohort study of patients younger than 16 years, presenting to hospital for the first time with oesophageal atresia, congenital diaphragmatic hernia, intestinal atresia, gastroschisis, exomphalos, anorectal malformation, and Hirschsprung’s disease. Recruitment was of consecutive patients for a minimum of 1 month between October, 2018, and April, 2019. We collected data on patient demographics, clinical status, interventions, and outcomes using the REDCap platform. Patients were followed up for 30 days after primary intervention, or 30 days after admission if they did not receive an intervention. The primary outcome was all-cause, in-hospital mortality for all conditions combined and each condition individually, stratified by country income status. We did a complete case analysis. Findings We included 3849 patients with 3975 study conditions (560 with oesophageal atresia, 448 with congenital diaphragmatic hernia, 681 with intestinal atresia, 453 with gastroschisis, 325 with exomphalos, 991 with anorectal malformation, and 517 with Hirschsprung’s disease) from 264 hospitals (89 in high-income countries, 166 in middleincome countries, and nine in low-income countries) in 74 countries. Of the 3849 patients, 2231 (58·0%) were male. Median gestational age at birth was 38 weeks (IQR 36–39) and median bodyweight at presentation was 2·8 kg (2·3–3·3). Mortality among all patients was 37 (39·8%) of 93 in low-income countries, 583 (20·4%) of 2860 in middle-income countries, and 50 (5·6%) of 896 in high-income countries (p<0·0001 between all country income groups). Gastroschisis had the greatest difference in mortality between country income strata (nine [90·0%] of ten in lowincome countries, 97 [31·9%] of 304 in middle-income countries, and two [1·4%] of 139 in high-income countries; p≤0·0001 between all country income groups). Factors significantly associated with higher mortality for all patients combined included country income status (low-income vs high-income countries, risk ratio 2·78 [95% CI 1·88–4·11], p<0·0001; middle-income vs high-income countries, 2·11 [1·59–2·79], p<0·0001), sepsis at presentation (1·20 [1·04–1·40], p=0·016), higher American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score at primary intervention (ASA 4–5 vs ASA 1–2, 1·82 [1·40–2·35], p<0·0001; ASA 3 vs ASA 1–2, 1·58, [1·30–1·92], p<0·0001]), surgical safety checklist not used (1·39 [1·02–1·90], p=0·035), and ventilation or parenteral nutrition unavailable when needed (ventilation 1·96, [1·41–2·71], p=0·0001; parenteral nutrition 1·35, [1·05–1·74], p=0·018). Administration of parenteral nutrition (0·61, [0·47–0·79], p=0·0002) and use of a peripherally inserted central catheter (0·65 [0·50–0·86], p=0·0024) or percutaneous central line (0·69 [0·48–1·00], p=0·049) were associated with lower mortality. Interpretation Unacceptable differences in mortality exist for gastrointestinal congenital anomalies between lowincome, middle-income, and high-income countries. Improving access to quality neonatal surgical care in LMICs will be vital to achieve Sustainable Development Goal 3.2 of ending preventable deaths in neonates and children younger than 5 years by 2030

RESERVAS DE CARBONO E NITROGÊNIO MINERAL NA ENCOSTA DO AÇUDE NAMORADOS NO SEMI-ÁRIDO PARAIBANO

The semiarid is characterized for presenting precipitations concentrated in short period of time, form that to most of the year the ground are displayed the strong insolation and to the raised hídrico deficit. On the other hand, the estacional variation of the climate affects the water content of the ground and as consequence the biological activity and the losses of C, mineral N and C-CO2.The purpose of this research was to analyze the losses of C, mineral N and C-CO2 of the ground in a microbasin, that passes for a process of environmental degradation, located in the Fazenda Experimental Bacia Escola/CCA/UFPB in São João do Cariri - PB, during the period of a translation, of the years of 2003 and 2004. It was defined a toposequence and chosen points of determination for the evaluation of the reserves of carbon, mineral nitrogen and microbic activity by means of the C-CO2 production. The biggest amounts of C had been verified in the areas of pediment and the minors in the area of side slopes; The amounts of mineral N was not influenced by the position of the ground in the toposeqüência; The biggest liberation of C-CO2 happened in the areas of pediment followed by the flood plain and half hillside, places with the biggest amount of of water in the soil

PERDAS DE CO2 DO SOLO E VARIABILIDADE TEMPORAL DAS CONDIÇÕES CLIMÁTICAS NO SEMI-ÁRIDO PARAIBANO

The evaluation of CO2 was carried in five points in the field,with a monthly collection in the daylight (from 5:00 AM to 5:00PM) for twelve months. Cylinders had been installed for thecaptation of CO2 in randomized blocks. The meteorologicaldata were received from the digital station. The water contentof the soll was determined in a rectilinear greenhouse at105ºC. In the rainy season, when the solar radiation andtemperatures diminished, the tax of losses CO2 diminished.In the dry season, the tax of edaphic respiration increasedwith the water availability of the ground. The CO2 tax variedalong the day in function of the incidence of the solar radiationand the oscillations of the temperature. During the months ofbigger precipitation, the increase or the reduction of the CO2tax depended on the solar radiation. The CO2 production waslesser in October, June and July, because of the reduction ofthe solarimetric elements.La evaluación del CO2 fue realizada en el campo en cinco puntos, con la colección mensual en la luz del día (5:00 a 17:00 h) durante doce meses. Los cilindros para captación del CO2 fueran instalados en bloques casualizados. Los datos meteorológicos fueran obtenidos de la estación digital y el contenido del agua en el suelo en estufa a 105 oC. En la estación lluviosa, cuando la radiación y la temperatura disminuyen, las pérdidas de CO2 fueran disminuidas. En la seca, el CO2 aumentó con la disponibilidad del agua en el suelo. La tasa de CO2 varía a través del día debido a la radiación y a las oscilaciones de la temperatura. En los meses de la precipitación más grandes, el aumento o la reducción del CO2 dependieron de la radiación. La producción del CO2 estaba menos en octubre, junio y julio, debido a la reducción de los elementos solarimétricos.A avaliação do CO2 foi realizada no campo em cinco pontos,com coleta mensal no período diurno (5h às 17h) durante dozemeses. Foram instalados cilindros para a captação do CO2dispostos em blocos casualizados. Os dados meteorológicosforam obtidos da estação digital e o conteúdo de água do soloem estufa retilínea a 105ºC. Na estação chuvosa, quando aradiação e a temperatura diminuem, a taxa de perdas de CO2decresceu. Na seca, o CO2 aumentou com a disponibilidadede água do solo. A taxa de CO2 varia ao longo do dia devidoà radiação e a oscilações da temperatura. Nos meses demaiores precipitações, o aumento ou a diminuição do CO2dependia da radiação. A produção de CO2 foi menor emoutubro, junho e julho, devido à diminuição dos elementossolarimétricos
