    Esta pesquisa teve por objetivo analisar o fenômeno da violência urbana na Universidade Federal do Pará -UFPA   em seu campus sede - Belém – UFPA. A partir de uma pesquisa de opinião realizada por meio do método de amostragem em Bola de Neve que atingiu 262 discentes da graduação, constatou-se que apenas 32,82% passou por alguma situação de violência no Campus. No entanto, a percepção de insegurança é maior pois 64,89% dos discentes participantes não se sentem seguros, e notícias alarmantes sobre violências no Campus- Belém, divulgadas pelos meios de comunicações contribuem para a percepção exagerada de insegurança. Os resultados dessa pesquisa contribuem com a reflexão sobre o fenômeno da violência urbana existente nos grandes centros urbanos e seus impactos na vida contemporâneas, embora a violência seja  um fenômeno normal não se pode aceitar a ideia que é inevitável, uma vez que sua existência “anormal” pressupõe-se a negação de um direito social fundamental, isto é, a segurança

    Objetivo: caracterizar as competências profissionais para os enfermeiros na visão de discentes de graduação em enfermagem, bem como as estratégias mobilizadas para aquisição dessas competências. Método: estudo qualitativo que utilizou a entrevista semiestruturada na coleta de dados ocorrida de janeiro a julho de 2015. Para análise dos dados foi utilizado o método de análise temática indutiva. Resultados: participaram da pesquisa 54 discentes, sendo 87% do sexo feminino e 13% do sexo masculino, na faixa etária entre 21 e 46 anos, 27,77% possuíam formação técnica em enfermagem. Quanto à procedência dos participantes, a maior parte (64,81%) era da região de Ribeirão Preto. Conclusão: na visão dos discentes, as competências profissionais para os enfermeiros foram conhecimento teórico-prático, liderança, comunicação, gerenciamento, relacionamento interpessoal e trabalho em equipe e competências pedagógicas. As estratégias mobilizadas para aquisição dessas competências foram experiência prática, aprimoramento profissional, grupos de estudo e apoio dos docentes.Descritores: Competência Profissional; Enfermagem; Bacharelado em Enfermagem; Educação Superior

    High success and low mortality rates with non-invasive ventilation in influenza A H1N1 patients in a tertiary hospital

    <p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>In 2009, an outbreak of respiratory illness caused by influenza A H1N1 virus occurred worldwide. Some patients required Intensive Care Unit (ICU) admission. The use of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) in these patients is controversial, as the aerosol dispersion may contaminate the environment and health-care co-workers.</p> <p>Methods</p> <p>Describe the respiratory profile, the mortality rate, and the benefit of using NIV in patients with confirmed diagnosis of influenza AH1N1 who were admitted in the ICU during the year 2009.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>A total of 1, 401 cases of influenza A H1N1 were confirmed in our hospital by real-time RT-PCR in 2009, and 20 patients were admitted to the ICU. The patients' ages ranged from 18 to 74 years (median of 42). Acute Respiratory Failure (ARF) was present in 70% of patients. The median Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II score was 7 (range 7 to 25). Of the 14 patients who developed ARF, 85.7% needed NIV and 14% needed invasive MV at admission. Our success rate (41.6%) with NIV was higher than that described by others. The hospital mortality rate was 2.1%. When influenza A H1N1 arrived in Brazil, the disease was already on endemic alert in other countries. The population was already aware of the symptoms and the health-care system of the treatment. This allowed patients to be properly and promptly treated for influenza A H1N1, while health-care workers took protective measures to avoid contamination.</p> <p>Conclusion</p> <p>In our study we found a high success and low mortality rates with non-invasive ventilation in patients with influenza A H1N1.</p

    Biodiversity loss is one of the main challenges of our time,1,2 and attempts to address it require a clear un derstanding of how ecological communities respond to environmental change across time and space.3,4 While the increasing availability of global databases on ecological communities has advanced our knowledge of biodiversity sensitivity to environmental changes,5–7 vast areas of the tropics remain understudied.8–11 In the American tropics, Amazonia stands out as the world’s most diverse rainforest and the primary source of Neotropical biodiversity,12 but it remains among the least known forests in America and is often underrepre sented in biodiversity databases.13–15 To worsen this situation, human-induced modifications16,17 may elim inate pieces of the Amazon’s biodiversity puzzle before we can use them to understand how ecological com munities are responding. To increase generalization and applicability of biodiversity knowledge,18,19 it is thus crucial to reduce biases in ecological research, particularly in regions projected to face the most pronounced environmental changes. We integrate ecological community metadata of 7,694 sampling sites for multiple or ganism groups in a machine learning model framework to map the research probability across the Brazilian Amazonia, while identifying the region’s vulnerability to environmental change. 15%–18% of the most ne glected areas in ecological research are expected to experience severe climate or land use changes by 2050. This means that unless we take immediate action, we will not be able to establish their current status, much less monitor how it is changing and what is being lostinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

    This paper describe development and financial performance of cooperative in District Pelalawan among 2007 - 2008. Studies on primary and secondary cooperative in 12 sub-districts. Method in this stady use performance measuring of productivity, efficiency, growth, liquidity, and solvability of cooperative. Productivity of cooperative in Pelalawan was highly but efficiency still low. Profit and income were highly, even liquidity of cooperative very high, and solvability was good

    Biodiversity loss is one of the main challenges of our time,1,2 and attempts to address it require a clear understanding of how ecological communities respond to environmental change across time and space.3,4 While the increasing availability of global databases on ecological communities has advanced our knowledge of biodiversity sensitivity to environmental changes,5,6,7 vast areas of the tropics remain understudied.8,9,10,11 In the American tropics, Amazonia stands out as the world's most diverse rainforest and the primary source of Neotropical biodiversity,12 but it remains among the least known forests in America and is often underrepresented in biodiversity databases.13,14,15 To worsen this situation, human-induced modifications16,17 may eliminate pieces of the Amazon's biodiversity puzzle before we can use them to understand how ecological communities are responding. To increase generalization and applicability of biodiversity knowledge,18,19 it is thus crucial to reduce biases in ecological research, particularly in regions projected to face the most pronounced environmental changes. We integrate ecological community metadata of 7,694 sampling sites for multiple organism groups in a machine learning model framework to map the research probability across the Brazilian Amazonia, while identifying the region's vulnerability to environmental change. 15%–18% of the most neglected areas in ecological research are expected to experience severe climate or land use changes by 2050. This means that unless we take immediate action, we will not be able to establish their current status, much less monitor how it is changing and what is being lost
