    Nuestra investigación se basó en una revisión de la literatura de 22 estudios científicos sobre el bullying, el tipo de víctima y agresor, sus causas y consecuencias, aquí se mostraron los daños de las víctimas, así como su repercusión global en el mundo. La intimidación se considera hoy en día un desafío global para la salud pública, las nuevas propuestas de intervención son esenciales para detener esta guerra silenciosa y silenciada por lo general, con consecuencias dramáticas como el desarrollo de patologías graves surgido por las experiencias traumáticas, y eventual conducta suicida. Con este fin tenemos la intención de ilustrar una posible vía para restaurar un medio ambiente seguro y saludable esencial para el desarrollo sano del niño, se dibuja una intervención terapéutica para hacer frente a esta violencia entre pares, concluyendo que es fundamental la prevención responsable y la alerta general la sociedad, el fortalecimiento de las víctimas primarias y secundarias, mediante la preparación de una acción Be the One - Stop Bullying , sabiendo que "la unión hace la fuerza", garantizado esto por el compromiso de toda la comunidad, traducido en la comunicación proactiva entre la escuela, la familia y las entidades gubernamentales competentes.Our investigation was based in a literature revision of 22 scientific studies of Bullying, enlightening aggressor’s and victim’s characteristics type, its causes and consequences here showed as victim’s damages as well as its global repercussion in the world. Being Bullying considered nowadays a global challenge to health public, new intervention proposals are essential to stop this usually silent and silenced war, with dramatic consequences as the development of severe pathologies emerged by traumatic experiences, and eventual suicidal. On this purpose we intend to illustrate a possible pathway to restore the safe and healthy environment essential to the child healthy development, drawing a therapeutic intervention to face this violence among pairs, concluding being crucial the responsible prevention and society general alert, focusing in aggressor’s inclusion in spite of exclusion, and primary as well secondary victim’s reinforcement, trough “Be the One- Stop Bullying” action, knowing that Strength is United Power warranted by community commitment, figured in proactive communication between school, family and governmental institutions.A nossa investigação assentou em 22 estudos científicos sobre Bullying, reflectindo sobre as características tipo de agressores e vítimas, as suas causas, bem como sobre as consequências também aqui desveladas, quer em termos dos danos individuais provocados às vítimas, quer em termos da sua repercussão à escala mundial. Sendo o Bullying actualmente considerado um desafio à saúde pública mundial, urgem novas propostas de intervenção para travar esta frequentemente silenciosa e silenciada guerra, com consequências dramáticas como o desenvolvimento de patologias severas despoletadas pela vivência traumática, culminando no suicídio. Nesse sentido, pretendemos ilustrar um possível caminho de preparação para a reestruturação do ambiente seguro e saudável e essencial ao bom desenvolvimento da criança, desenhando uma abordagem terapêutica para fazer face a esta forma de violência entre pares, para a qual concluímos ser crucial a responsável prevenção e alerta geral da sociedade, com enfoque na inclusão em detrimento da exclusão dos agressores e do fortalecimento das vítimas primárias e secundárias, através da preparação para a acção do Be the One - Stop Bullying, sabendo que a “união faz a força”, garantida esta, pelo empenho de toda a comunidade, traduzido na profícua comunicação entre escola, família e entidades governamentais competentes.peerReviewe

    Objective: To develop a digital platform for optimizing data collection processes with medical scales and monitoring data for measuring value in health. Method: Using an investigative intervention methodology, a platform was developed including qualitative and quantitative approaches in three phases: focal groups were conducted by a multidisciplinary team of investigators and healthcare providers at the pilot study site, an Integrated Continuous Care Unit (UCCI); data from a sample of 21 UCCI users was analyzed as a pre-test to classify different levels of complexity; UCCI financial data and operational costs were collected and analyzed during the 21 users stay at the UCCI. The platform’s iteractive and incremental development allowed for the collection of as a form of improvement. Results: The platform includes three modules: a mobile application; a dashboard; and an import module. Data collected on the platform are centralized and shown on the dashboard. Data are collected using a mobile application and/or an import module to input data from existing medical systems. Conclusion: The mobile application is ready to be used by healthcare providers and caregivers. The dashboard shows users’ clinical follow-up and health gain data for monitoring.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

    Differential cross section measurements for the production of a W boson in association with jets in proton–proton collisions at √s = 7 TeV

    Measurements are reported of differential cross sections for the production of a W boson, which decays into a muon and a neutrino, in association with jets, as a function of several variables, including the transverse momenta (pT) and pseudorapidities of the four leading jets, the scalar sum of jet transverse momenta (HT), and the difference in azimuthal angle between the directions of each jet and the muon. The data sample of pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV was collected with the CMS detector at the LHC and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 5.0 fb[superscript −1]. The measured cross sections are compared to predictions from Monte Carlo generators, MadGraph + pythia and sherpa, and to next-to-leading-order calculations from BlackHat + sherpa. The differential cross sections are found to be in agreement with the predictions, apart from the pT distributions of the leading jets at high pT values, the distributions of the HT at high-HT and low jet multiplicity, and the distribution of the difference in azimuthal angle between the leading jet and the muon at low values.United States.

    Impacts of the Tropical Pacific/Indian Oceans on the Seasonal Cycle of the West African Monsoon

    The current consensus is that drought has developed in the Sahel during the second half of the twentieth century as a result of remote effects of oceanic anomalies amplified by local land–atmosphere interactions. This paper focuses on the impacts of oceanic anomalies upon West African climate and specifically aims to identify those from SST anomalies in the Pacific/Indian Oceans during spring and summer seasons, when they were significant. Idealized sensitivity experiments are performed with four atmospheric general circulation models (AGCMs). The prescribed SST patterns used in the AGCMs are based on the leading mode of covariability between SST anomalies over the Pacific/Indian Oceans and summer rainfall over West Africa. The results show that such oceanic anomalies in the Pacific/Indian Ocean lead to a northward shift of an anomalous dry belt from the Gulf of Guinea to the Sahel as the season advances. In the Sahel, the magnitude of rainfall anomalies is comparable to that obtained by other authors using SST anomalies confined to the proximity of the Atlantic Ocean. The mechanism connecting the Pacific/Indian SST anomalies with West African rainfall has a strong seasonal cycle. In spring (May and June), anomalous subsidence develops over both the Maritime Continent and the equatorial Atlantic in response to the enhanced equatorial heating. Precipitation increases over continental West Africa in association with stronger zonal convergence of moisture. In addition, precipitation decreases over the Gulf of Guinea. During the monsoon peak (July and August), the SST anomalies move westward over the equatorial Pacific and the two regions where subsidence occurred earlier in the seasons merge over West Africa. The monsoon weakens and rainfall decreases over the Sahel, especially in August.Peer reviewe

    Juxtaposing BTE and ATE – on the role of the European insurance industry in funding civil litigation

    Get PDF
    One of the ways in which legal services are financed, and indeed shaped, is through private insurance arrangement. Two contrasting types of legal expenses insurance contracts (LEI) seem to dominate in Europe: before the event (BTE) and after the event (ATE) legal expenses insurance. Notwithstanding institutional differences between different legal systems, BTE and ATE insurance arrangements may be instrumental if government policy is geared towards strengthening a market-oriented system of financing access to justice for individuals and business. At the same time, emphasizing the role of a private industry as a keeper of the gates to justice raises issues of accountability and transparency, not readily reconcilable with demands of competition. Moreover, multiple actors (clients, lawyers, courts, insurers) are involved, causing behavioural dynamics which are not easily predicted or influenced. Against this background, this paper looks into BTE and ATE arrangements by analysing the particularities of BTE and ATE arrangements currently available in some European jurisdictions and by painting a picture of their respective markets and legal contexts. This allows for some reflection on the performance of BTE and ATE providers as both financiers and keepers. Two issues emerge from the analysis that are worthy of some further reflection. Firstly, there is the problematic long-term sustainability of some ATE products. Secondly, the challenges faced by policymakers that would like to nudge consumers into voluntarily taking out BTE LEI

    Risk portfolio on modern finance has become increasingly technical, requiring the use of sophisticated mathematical tools in both research and practice. Since companies cannot insure themselves completely against risk, as human incompetence in predicting the future precisely that written in Al-Quran surah Luqman verse 34, they have to manage it to yield an optimal portfolio. The objective here is to minimize the variance among all portfolios, or alternatively, to maximize expected return among all portfolios that has at least a certain expected return. Furthermore, this study focuses on optimizing risk portfolio so called Markowitz MVO (Mean-Variance Optimization). Some theoretical frameworks for analysis are arithmetic mean, geometric mean, variance, covariance, linear programming, and quadratic programming. Moreover, finding a minimum variance portfolio produces a convex quadratic programming, that is minimizing the objective function ðð¥with constraintsð ð 𥠥 ðandð´ð¥ = ð. The outcome of this research is the solution of optimal risk portofolio in some investments that could be finished smoothly using MATLAB R2007b software together with its graphic analysis
