Além das equipes intergeracionais: possibilidades de estudos sobre ageismo

O trabalho tem o objetivo de articular, por meio de um ensaio teórico, contribuições de pesquisas sobre o ageismo envolvendo as principais estratégias de enfrentamento no contexto organizacional, refletindo criticamente sobre a prevalência que é dada à formação de equipes intergeracionais nas organizações. Verifica-se um número maior de estudos baseados em discussões teóricas e poucas pesquisas empíricas acerca do tema. Como resultados, observa-se que, embora seja comum a propositura da formação de equipes intergeracionais nos espaços de trabalho como estratégia de mitigação do ageismo, faz-se necessária a implementação concomitante de outras estratégias que envolvam a inclusão e permanência de trabalhadores mais velhos. Essas estratégias consistem em políticas de contratação desses trabalhadores, qualificação profissional, flexibilização das condições de trabalho, sensibilização e conscientização dos trabalhadores mais jovens, gerenciamento de equipes intergeracionais e aproveitamento de mão de obra qualificada. Este ensaio contribui para a teoria e a prática organizacional, pois problematiza o conceito de gerações caracterizadas pela idade cronológica, reforça a heterogeneidade da força de trabalho e incentiva a discussão sobre o tema e sobre potenciais práticas de mitigação do ageismo no seio das organizações

CÂNCER DE ESTÔMAGO: FATORES DE RISCO, PREVENÇÃO E TRATAMENTO

Introduction: Stomach cancer poses a major challenge to public health worldwide. This disease is responsible for thousands of deaths every year and significantly impacts the quality of life of patients. Objective: The objective is to increase knowledge about stomach cancer by identifying the main risk factors, as well as the best prevention and treatment strategies. Methodology: A descriptive and qualitative literature review was conducted, analyzing scientific articles related to the research topic. Selection criteria included complete articles published in Portuguese between 2017 and 2022, while exclusion criteria involved duplicate articles, unavailable texts, publications in languages other than Portuguese, and studies published more than 5 years ago. Analysis and discussion of results: There are several risk factors that can increase the likelihood of developing stomach cancer. Among them, infection by the Helicobacter pylori bacterium is one of the most significant. Prevention plays a fundamental role in reducing the incidence of stomach cancer, and adopting simple measures can make a difference. Avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption are essential steps in this process, as these habits are associated with a higher risk of developing the disease. Conclusion: In conclusion, stomach cancer represents a significant challenge to global health, but prevention and adequate treatment play a crucial role in reducing its incidence and increasing survival rates.Introdução: O câncer de estômago representa um grande desafio para a saúde pública em todo o mundo.

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

ATLANTIC EPIPHYTES: a data set of vascular and non-vascular epiphyte plants and lichens from the Atlantic Forest

Epiphytes are hyper-diverse and one of the frequently undervalued life forms in plant surveys and biodiversity inventories. Epiphytes of the Atlantic Forest, one of the most endangered ecosystems in the world, have high endemism and radiated recently in the Pliocene. We aimed to (1) compile an extensive Atlantic Forest data set on vascular, non-vascular plants (including hemiepiphytes), and lichen epiphyte species occurrence and abundance; (2) describe the epiphyte distribution in the Atlantic Forest, in order to indicate future sampling efforts. Our work presents the first epiphyte data set with information on abundance and occurrence of epiphyte phorophyte species. All data compiled here come from three main sources provided by the authors: published sources (comprising peer-reviewed articles, books, and theses), unpublished data, and herbarium data. We compiled a data set composed of 2,095 species, from 89,270 holo/hemiepiphyte records, in the Atlantic Forest of Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay, recorded from 1824 to early 2018. Most of the records were from qualitative data (occurrence only, 88%), well distributed throughout the Atlantic Forest. For quantitative records, the most common sampling method was individual trees (71%), followed by plot sampling (19%), and transect sampling (10%). Angiosperms (81%) were the most frequently registered group, and Bromeliaceae and Orchidaceae were the families with the greatest number of records (27,272 and 21,945, respectively). Ferns and Lycophytes presented fewer records than Angiosperms, and Polypodiaceae were the most recorded family, and more concentrated in the Southern and Southeastern regions. Data on non-vascular plants and lichens were scarce, with a few disjunct records concentrated in the Northeastern region of the Atlantic Forest. For all non-vascular plant records, Lejeuneaceae, a family of liverworts, was the most recorded family. We hope that our effort to organize scattered epiphyte data help advance the knowledge of epiphyte ecology, as well as our understanding of macroecological and biogeographical patterns in the Atlantic Forest.

Atendimento aos estudantes com necessidades educacionais específicas em universidades e institutos federais do Nordeste: análise dos sites institucionais

This study analyzes the accessibility to information about the sectors of assistance to students with specific educational needs on the websites of the universities and federal institutes of education, science and technology of the Northeast. From a documentary research, data were collected in 29 places, analyzing them based on descriptive statistics and cluster analysis. The results showed that, although there is no standard of information available on the researched sites, it is possible to define institutions with greater and lesser accessibility to information in these sectors. The research reinforces accessibility on institutional websites as a strategy to overcome barriers to inclusion, especially technological, attitudinal and communicational barriers.Key-words: accessibility; inclusion; access to information.Neste estudo apresenta-se resultados de análise da acessibilidade às informações sobre os setores de atendimento aos estudantes com necessidades educacionais específicas nos sites das universidades e institutos federais de educação, ciência e tecnologia do Nordeste. A partir de uma pesquisa documental, foram levantados dados de 29 sites, analisando-os a partir da estatística descritiva e análise de clusters. Os resultados apontaram que, mesmo não havendo um padrão de informações disponíveis nos sites pesquisados, é possível definir as instituições com maior e menor acessibilidade às informações sobre estes setores. A pesquisa reforça a acessibilidade nos sites institucionais como uma estratégia de superação das barreiras à inclusão, especialmente as barreiras tecnológicas, atitudinais e comunicacionais.Palavras-chave: acessibilidade; inclusão; acesso à informação
