    TCC(graduação) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina. Centro de Ciências Jurídicas. Direito.A difícil conceituação do que é interesse público é motivo de grandes debates na academia brasileira. Corrente mais recente de estudiosos do Direito Admnistrativo considera que a supremacia do interesse público deve ser revista a luz dos direitos e garantias fundamentais. Para tanto, procura-se neste trabalho compreender o que é interesse público na concepção clássica do Direito Administrativo brasileiro, bem como entender o que caracteriza interesse público para nova corrente doutrinária que contesta a supremacia do interesse público, enquanto princípio. A partir de uma perspectiva, em que os direitos e garantias individuais (interesse privado), frente ao interesse público, se tornam o cerne da discussão. No paradigma clássico do Direito Admnistrativo se pauta a supremacia do interesse público, mesmo em situações de conflito com interesses de ordem privada. Esse paradigma se pauta pela legalidade, em que todos os atos da Admnistração Pública se orientam pela diretrizes de como deve ser sua atividade. No novo paradigma, o cerne da questão está nas garantias e direitos fundamentais dos indivíduos, e que, a luz da Constituição de 1988, são superiores. A crítica coloca que não pode existir um interesse maior do que outro, afirmando que não existe constitucionalidade para considerar o interesse público supremo. Também é possível observar que o novo paradigma recorre a eixos orientadores dentro do que se coloca como novo. Por exemplo: juridicidades dos atos administrativos, proporcionalidade, avaliação de resultados e o debate sobre discricionaridade versus arbitrariedade. A problemática do trabalho está em como de fato se caracteriza esse novo paradigma. E sua hipótese trata da necessidade de que a Administração Pública paute sua atuação pela proporcionalidade e pela busca da realização da eficiência por meio da avaliação de resultados. A pesquisa utilizou-se do método dedutivo e da pesquisa bibliográfica, realizada em artigos acadêmicos e manuais jurídicos. Ao fim do trabalho concluise que a discussão de um novo paradigma no Direito Admnistrativo não é apenas de ordem jurídica, mas sobretudo política

    Rate adaptive resource allocation with fairness control for OFDMA networks

    No full text
    The use of opportunistic radio resource allocation techniques in order to efficiently manage the resources generates a low fairness among the users in a cellular system due to uneven Quality of Service (QoS) distribution. Some classic rate adaptive policies tried to tackle this problem for OFDMA systems by proposing solutions to maximize capacity, maximize fairness, or find a static trade-off between these two objectives. This work generalizes these classic policies and propose a dynamic fairness/rate adaptive technique based on dynamic sub-carrier assignment and equal power allocation that considers a new fairness constraint in the optimization problem. By means of extensive system-level simulations, it is demonstrated that the proposed technique is able to provide an instantaneous (short-term) fairness control, which provides to the network operator the flexibility to operate on any desired trade-off point.Peer ReviewedPostprint (published version

    RESUMO Objetivou-se conhecer a percepção de cuidadores sobre a prevenção de acidentes domésticos em crianças menores de cinco anos. Pesquisa qualitativa, sendo os dados coletados em março de 2014, por meio de entrevista semiestruturada com 16 cuidadores de crianças menores de cinco anos, em uma Unidade Básica de Saúde. Os dados foram submetidos à análise de conteúdo. Os resultados evidenciaram que os participantes percebem o acidente doméstico envolvendo crianças a partir de duas dimensões principais: o acidente como consequência da conduta e das formas de enfrentamento da pessoa que cuida e o acidente em decorrência de fatores de risco que envolviam a própria criança. Concluiu-se que o acidente doméstico foi compreendido pelo cuidador a partir de uma perspectiva preventiva e atenção constante aos atos da criança. Sua ocorrência foi relacionada ao desenvolvimento infantil, emergindo a prevenção pela supervisão e orientação. O estudo traz subsídios para a abordagem preventiva do acidente infantil pela enfermagem no contexto domiciliar

    Heterogeneous contributions of change in population distribution of body mass index to change in obesity and underweight NCD Risk Factor Collaboration (NCD-RisC)

    From 1985 to 2016, the prevalence of underweight decreased, and that of obesity and severe obesity increased, in most regions, with significant variation in the magnitude of these changes across regions. We investigated how much change in mean body mass index (BMI) explains changes in the prevalence of underweight, obesity, and severe obesity in different regions using data from 2896 population-based studies with 187 million participants. Changes in the prevalence of underweight and total obesity, and to a lesser extent severe obesity, are largely driven by shifts in the distribution of BMI, with smaller contributions from changes in the shape of the distribution. In East and Southeast Asia and sub-Saharan Africa, the underweight tail of the BMI distribution was left behind as the distribution shifted. There is a need for policies that address all forms of malnutrition by making healthy foods accessible and affordable, while restricting unhealthy foods through fiscal and regulatory restrictions

    BACKGROUND: Hypertension can be detected at the primary health-care level and low-cost treatments can effectively control hypertension. We aimed to measure the prevalence of hypertension and progress in its detection, treatment, and control from 1990 to 2019 for 200 countries and territories. METHODS: We used data from 1990 to 2019 on people aged 30-79 years from population-representative studies with measurement of blood pressure and data on blood pressure treatment. We defined hypertension as having systolic blood pressure 140 mm Hg or greater, diastolic blood pressure 90 mm Hg or greater, or taking medication for hypertension. We applied a Bayesian hierarchical model to estimate the prevalence of hypertension and the proportion of people with hypertension who had a previous diagnosis (detection), who were taking medication for hypertension (treatment), and whose hypertension was controlled to below 140/90 mm Hg (control). The model allowed for trends over time to be non-linear and to vary by age. FINDINGS: The number of people aged 30-79 years with hypertension doubled from 1990 to 2019, from 331 (95% credible interval 306-359) million women and 317 (292-344) million men in 1990 to 626 (584-668) million women and 652 (604-698) million men in 2019, despite stable global age-standardised prevalence. In 2019, age-standardised hypertension prevalence was lowest in Canada and Peru for both men and women; in Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, and some countries in western Europe including Switzerland, Spain, and the UK for women; and in several low-income and middle-income countries such as Eritrea, Bangladesh, Ethiopia, and Solomon Islands for men. Hypertension prevalence surpassed 50% for women in two countries and men in nine countries, in central and eastern Europe, central Asia, Oceania, and Latin America. Globally, 59% (55-62) of women and 49% (46-52) of men with hypertension reported a previous diagnosis of hypertension in 2019, and 47% (43-51) of women and 38% (35-41) of men were treated. Control rates among people with hypertension in 2019 were 23% (20-27) for women and 18% (16-21) for men. In 2019, treatment and control rates were highest in South Korea, Canada, and Iceland (treatment >70%; control >50%), followed by the USA, Costa Rica, Germany, Portugal, and Taiwan. Treatment rates were less than 25% for women and less than 20% for men in Nepal, Indonesia, and some countries in sub-Saharan Africa and Oceania. Control rates were below 10% for women and men in these countries and for men in some countries in north Africa, central and south Asia, and eastern Europe. Treatment and control rates have improved in most countries since 1990, but we found little change in most countries in sub-Saharan Africa and Oceania. Improvements were largest in high-income countries, central Europe, and some upper-middle-income and recently high-income countries including Costa Rica, Taiwan, Kazakhstan, South Africa, Brazil, Chile, Turkey, and Iran. INTERPRETATION: Improvements in the detection, treatment, and control of hypertension have varied substantially across countries, with some middle-income countries now outperforming most high-income nations. The dual approach of reducing hypertension prevalence through primary prevention and enhancing its treatment and control is achievable not only in high-income countries but also in low-income and middle-income settings.
