Human side of open innovation : review, analysis and recommendations

In recent years, open innovation (OI) has emerged as a prominent field of study within management and innovation literature, focusing on the collaborative and open nature of various organizational processes. However, much of the research in this area has been dominated by a firm and technological perspective, with limited attention paid to the human aspects of OI. As such, this thesis aims to address this research gap by conducting a comprehensive review of the OI with focus on human side and individual (micro) perspective. The study involves a systematic review of 54 articles published in top-tier management journals, which are analysed using thematic analysis and content analysis techniques. The review highlights the importance of factors such as trust, communication, collaboration, knowledge sharing, and leadership in facilitating successful OI practices. Moreover, it underscores the critical role of social and cultural factors in shaping the human dynamics of OI. Based on the findings, the thesis proposes research questions that aim to shed further light on the human dimensions around OI, and how they can be leveraged to enhance innovation outcomes. The study contributes to the existing literature by providing a more comprehensive understanding of the role of human factors in OI, and by providing insights that can inform the design of effective OI strategies.Nos últimos anos, a inovação aberta (IA) emergiu como um campo proeminente de estudo na literatura de gestão e inovação, concentrando-se na natureza colaborativa e aberta de vários processos organizacionais. No entanto, grande parte da investigação nesse campo tem sido dominada por uma firma perspetiva tecnológica, com pouca atenção dedicada aos aspetos humanos da IA. Como tal, a presente tese visa colmatar essa lacuna de investigação através da realização de uma revisão abrangente da OI com foco no lado humano e na perspetiva (micro) individual. O estudo envolve uma revisão sistemática de 54 artigos publicados em revistas emblemáticas de gestão, que são analisados usando técnicas de análise temática e de conteúdo. A revisão destaca a importância de fatores como confiança, comunicação, colaboração, compartilhamento de conhecimento e liderança na facilitação de práticas bem-sucedidas de IA. Além disso, enfatiza o papel crítico de fatores sociais e culturais na formação da dinâmica humana da IA. Com base nos resultados, a tese propõe questões de investigação que visam esclarecer as dimensões humanas da IA e como estas podem ser aproveitadas para melhorar os resultados da inovação. O estudo contribui para a literatura existente, fornecendo uma compreensão mais abrangente do papel dos fatores humanos na IA e oferecendo insights que podem informar o design de estratégias eficazes de IA

Avaliação de uma Tecnologia Educacional para a prevenção de violência sexual de jovens mulheres com Deficiência Intelectual

RESUMO: Introdução: Jovens mulheres com Deficiência Intelectual (DI) têm uma maior probabilidade de sofrerem abuso sexual do que garotas sem deficiência, por serem mais vulneráveis. Muitas são infantilizadas e acabam não recebendo orientações sobre sexualidade. Essa falta de informação as deixa mais expostas a situações de risco, fazendo com que o abusador subestime a vítima, acreditando que ela será descredibilizada por conta da deficiência. Objetivo: Avaliar uma Tecnologia Educacional (TE) com o foco na prevenção do abuso sexual, sob a perspectiva de adolescentes e jovens do sexo feminino com Deficiência Intelectual. Metodologia: Trata-se de um estudo de validação, com abordagem qualitativa, realizado junto a 14 jovens com DI, com informações coletadas a partir de observação participante e não participante. O material educativo é formado por um livro, dois bonecos sexuados, um livreto e vídeo explicativo. Resultados: Após a avaliação e percepção das participantes quanto aos quesitos: objetivo, relevância, eficácia, apresentação, acesso, clareza e interatividade, o material foi considerado validado, tendo em vista que a tecnologia contempla pontos importantes a serem discutidos com jovens com DI e cumpre seu propósito de criação. Conclusão: Observa-se como potencial deste estudo o destaque inovador quanto à percepção do público-alvo sobre o material educativo, considerando a capacidade de autonomia e superação das dificuldades advindas com a Deficiência Intelectual. Ressalta-se a importância de continuar o uso da TE, junto a um número maior de mulheres com DI, para que mais percepções sejam colhidas e se reforce sua efetividade

Mindfulness, promoção da saúde e semiótica: bases para modelos comunicacionais em saúde online

Objetivo: analizar un curso en línea sobre promoción de la salud basado en la atención plena (mindfulness) a través de la teoría de la semiótica discursiva en uno de sus desarrollos más recientes, el aspecto visual o plástico. El objetivo es identificar cómo el texto verbal-visual del curso produce significados y cómo puede ayudar en el diseño de otros cursos. Método: se llevó a cabo un análisis semiótico de dos prácticas y una impresión de pantalla del curso llamado Programa de autocuidado basado en la atención plena, en educación a distancia, desarrollado por el Centro Brasileño de Mindfulness y Promoción de la Salud (“Mente Abierta”), del Departamento de Medicina Preventivade de la Universidad Federal de São Paulo. Resultados: se evaluaronlos elementos estéticos que contribuyeron a la construcción de un entorno de práctica eufórica (vinculado a la salud) y se establecieron relaciones entre el plan de contenido y el plan de expresión de práctica, responsables de la construcción de relaciones semi-simbólicas. Conclusión: se confirmó la valoración de una estética de simplicidad de colores y formas, que convergió en una afirmación de los valores de calma y bienestar compatibles con las prácticas de mindfulness. Objetictive: to analyze an online course on health promotion based on mindfulness (mindfulness) through the theory of discursive semiotics in one of its most recent developments, the visual or plastic aspect. The objective is to identify how the verbal-visual text of the course producesmeanings and how it can help in the design of other courses. Method: a semiotic analysis of two practices and a screen print of the course called Mindfulness-Based Self-Care Program, in distance learning, developed by the Brazilian Center for Mindfulness and Health Promotion (“Open Mind”), of the Department of Preventive Medicine at the Federal University of São Paulo. Results: the aesthetic elements that contributed to the construction of an euphoric practice environment (linked to health) were evaluated and relationships were established between the content planand the practice expression plan, responsible for the construction of a semi-symbolic system. Conclusion: it was confirmed the appreciation of an aesthetics of simplicity of colors and shapes that was converged to an affirmation of the values of calm and well-being compatible with the practices of mindfulness. From this analysis, we seek to reflect on the bases for the development of communicational models related to health promotion in a digital environment.Objetivo: identificar como o texto verbo-visual do curso produz sentidos e como isso pode auxiliar na  construção do design de outros cursos.

Conclusão: a partir dessa análise, busca-se refletir sobre asbases para o desenvolvimento de modelos comunicacionais relacionados à promoção da saúde em ambiente digital.

Squamous Cell Carcinoma in Third Eyelid of Cat

Background: The third eyelid neoplasms are uncommon in cats. The squamous cell carcinoma are easily found in head and neck of same specie, although is unusual in eye region. The more commun localization is eyelid and eyeball, being 60 and 15%, respectively. It could bee diagnosed by citology, histopathology, imunohistochemistry and molecular biology. The surgery is more effective treatment, because the tumor can be totally removed and it must available surgical margin. The aim of this study was to report a case of squamous cell carcinoma in third eyelid of a cat and show how it was treated with radical surgery. Case: A 11-year-old spayed female domestic short-haired white and black colored cat was presented for evaluation at Maria Dias Teixeira Hospital of Amazonia Federal Rural University (UFRA), of an red ocular mass fast growth in the left eye for 2 months. Physical exam was within normal limits. The animal presented discomfort on the region, when it was manipulated. The mass was ulcerated and blood-tinged ocular discharge, had 3.3 x 2 cm, beginning on third eyelid and overlay all the eyeball. Blood was collated to make exams. Complete blood count and serum chemistry profiles were within normal ranges, but leukocytes were increased and it was treated with Amoxicillin (22 mg/kg). It was performed biopsy to histopathology and immunohistochemistry diagnose, and radiography and ultrasonography to found metastasis. Ocular tissues were fixed in 10% formalin and processed routinely for histological examination. Sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin and diagnosed poorly differentiated Squamous cell carcinoma. Immunohistochemistry was performed using anti-cytokeratin 1:200, anti-vimentin 1:150 and anti-actin alpha smooth muscle 1:700 antibodies. The tumor cells were positive for cytokeratin and negative for vimentin. In tumor stroma was immunostaining of myofibroblasts by actina alpha smooth muscle. Because of malignment and infiltrative neoplasm, it was chosen to perform eye and eyelid enucleation. At post-operative evaluation no complication was found and in tem days, surgical wound was held. Seven months post-operative no neoplastic tissue had growth on local. Discussion: A retrospective study at Belem and some close cities, which took all neoplasms and classified, found only 1.5% of ocular neoplasms, and no one was in cats. Similarly occurred with another study, that 1.21% out of ocular masses, just 12.5% was diagnosed in cats, showing how uncommon is ocular neoplasm in cats. Including theses lesions, less of then are only in third eyelid. Ultraviolet radiation is the most related probably causes of squamous cell carcinoma. At Belem City ultravioleta radiation is very high, can bee 11 in some stations, in a scale of 0 to 14, the medial temperature is 27ºC. Another factor that could influence squamous cell carcionoma progress is skin color, animals’ wich skin is light have more probably to develop this neoplasm. On our case, close to eye, skin was dark, although the carcinoma was growth at third eyelid mucosa, a local that have no protection to ultraviolet radiation. Myofibroblasts observed in the tumor stroma are important in the invasion process of this tumor in humans. The treatment used in this case was radical surgery, with no other adjuvant, what is indicate for some authors. Another authors prefer exscind only third eyelid, but sometimes it is not possible, because this kind of neoplasm is very infiltrate. The localization and the nodular form of squamous cell carcinoma found in this study is uncommon, mainly in cats. Histopathological and immunohistochemical analysis were important for definitive diagnostic. The treatment by enucleation of eyeball and removing the eyelids was effective, without relapse in 7 months after surgery. Keywords: oncology, ophthalmology, ocular neoplasm, feline

ASSISTÊNCIA DOS PROFISSIONAIS DE ENFERMAGEM AO PACIENTE COM SEPTICEMIA: UM ESTUDO DE REVISÃO INTEGRATIVA

This study aims to describe the assistance provided by nursing professionals to patients with sepsis, according to the literature of the last five years. This is an integrative literature review study. The bibliographic survey was carried out between July and August 2023, in the LILACS, SCIELO and Periódico CAPES databases. To increase the scope of the review, the Boolean AND operator was used. The descriptors were used: sepsis “AND” nursing, which are registered in the Health Sciences Descriptors (DeCS) and which were defined according to the proposed theme. The inclusion criteria for this study were original articles published in full, available in indexed databases, written in Portuguese and published between the period 2018 to 2023. After crossing the descriptors with Boolean in the databases, we found 55 studies in LILACS, 23 in SCIELO and 153 in CAPES. After analyzing, reading the articles and applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, a total of 8 studies were selected to compose the integrative review, as these covered the proposed theme and achieved the proposed objectives. Regarding the approach of the selected studies, 1 was cross-sectional descriptive, 1 observational retrospective study, 1 cross-sectional study, descriptive of a documental nature, 2 qualitative descriptive studies, 1 cross-sectional with a retrospective approach, 1 exploratory descriptive with a qualitative approach and 1 descriptive in nature quantitative. It was evident that many nursing professionals had scientific knowledge for the recognition and management of patients with septicemia. However, some still lack training, as they confuse the signs and symptoms of sepsis with other pathologies and even fail to provide efficient assistance, as they do not carry out a rigorous evaluation of the patient to identify the signs of septicemia.Esse estudo tem como objetivo descrever a assistência realizada pelos profissionais de enfermagem ao paciente com sepse, conforme a literatura dos últimos cinco anos. Trata-se de um estudo de revisão de literatura do tipo integrativa. O levantamento bibliográfico foi realizado entre os meses de julho e agosto de 2023, nas bases de dados LILACS, SCIELO e Periódico CAPES. Para aumentar o escopo da revisão foi utilizado o operador booleano AND. Foram utilizados os descritores: sepse “AND” enfermagem, que estão registrados nos Descritores em Ciências da Saúde (DeCS) e que foram definidos conforme a temática proposta. Os critérios de inclusão desse estudo foram os artigos originais publicados na íntegra, disponíveis nas bases de dados indexadas, escritos em língua portuguesa e publicados entre o período de 2018 a 2023. Após o cruzamento dos descritores com o booleano nas bases de dados, foram encontrados 55 estudos no LILACS, 23 no SCIELO e 153 no CAPES. Após a análise, leitura dos artigos e aplicação dos critérios de inclusão e exclusão, foram selecionados um total de 8 estudos para compor a revisão integrativa, pois esses abrangeram a temática proposta e atingiram os objetivos propostos. Em relação à abordagem dos estudos selecionados, 1 foi transversal descritivo,  1 estudo observacional retrospectivo, 1 estudo transversal, descritivo de caráter documental, 2 estudos qualitativos descritivos, 1 corte transversal com abordagem retrospectiva, 1 exploratório descritivo com abordagem qualitativa e 1 descritivo de natureza quantitativa. Ficou evidente que muitos profissionais de enfermagem apresentaram conhecimentos científicos para o reconhecimento e manejo do paciente com septicemia. Entretanto, alguns ainda carecem de capacitações, visto que confundem os sinais e sintomas da sepse com outras patologias e até mesmo deixam de realizar uma assistência eficiente, pois não fazem uma avaliação rigorosa do paciente para identificar os sinais de septicemia.

Pervasive gaps in Amazonian ecological research

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
