Abstract:
BackgroundEpidemiological characteristics and recent trends in unintentional drowning at the national level in China are unreported.MethodsUsing data from the Disease Surveillance Points system, the overall, sex-, location-, age- and cause-specific age-standardised mortality from unintentional drowning in China were calculated and compared. Linear regression was used to examine the significance of mortality trend changes over time.ResultsThe average mortality was 4.05 per 100 000 persons between 2006 and 2013. Men and rural residents had much higher drowning mortality rates than women and urban residents at all time points. Drowning following a fall into natural water was the most common mechanism (46% of all drowning deaths). The overall drowning mortality rate remained stable for all subgroups except for distinct decreases in urban residents, children aged 5–9 years, and other specified and unspecified drowning (−10%, −36% and −25%, respectively).ConclusionsThe overall drowning mortality rate remained high and stable in China between 2006 and 2013. Effective prevention measures like removing or covering water hazards, wearing personal floatation devices, supervision of children, and teaching survival swimming and resuscitation skills should be implemented nationwide.

Abstract:
De 2006 a 2013 foram diagnosticados 81 casos de doença vestibular canina no serviço de rotina em neurologia de um hospital veterinário universitário do sul do Brasil. Desses, aproximadamente dois terços foram diagnosticados com doença vestibular central (DVC) e cerca de um terço como doença vestibular periférica (DVP). Cães com raça definida foram mais acometidos que aqueles sem raça definida, principalmente Dachshund (DVP) e Boxer (DVC). Os principais sinais clínicos observados, tanto na DVP quanto na DVC, incluíram: inclinação de cabeça, ataxia vestibular e estrabismo ventral ou ventrolateral. Deficiência proprioceptiva, disfunção dos nervos cranianos V-XII e alteração de nível de consciência foram vistos apenas em casos de DVC, já a ausência de reflexo palpebral ocorreu apenas em casos de DVP. Doenças inflamatórias/infecciosas, principalmente cinomose e otite bacteriana, foram as condições mais comumente associadas à DVC e à DVP, respectivamente. Esse artigo estabelece os aspectos epidemiológicos (sexo, idade e raça) e a prevalência dos sinais clínicos observados em cães com doença vestibular na Região Central do Rio Grande do Sul, discute a utilização dos achados clínicos no diagnóstico correto e na diferenciação entre DVC e DVP, e define quais as principais doenças responsáveis pela ocorrência dessas duas síndromes clínicas.

Abstract:
This study aims to analyze the trend of indicators related to smoking in the capitals of Brazil from 2006 to 2013. Information on smoking trends extracted from the survey of risk and protective factors for chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are analyzed through telephone interviews - VIGITEL conducted from 2006-2013 for the adult population in Brazilian capitals. To estimate the trend, the simple linear regression model was used. The prevalence of smokers in Brazil showed a relative reduction of 0.62% for each year of the survey, ranging from 15.6% in 2006 to 11.3% in 2013. A decrease was observed in both sexes in all age ranges except between 55 and 64 years in all education levels and regions. The total population of former smokers remained stable, with a reduction for men. Smoking 20 or more cigarettes per day decreased from 4.6% (2006) to 3.4% (2013), or 0.162 percentage points per year. Passive smoking at home decreased among women 13.4% (2009) to 10.7% (2013), a reduction of 0.72% per annum. Passive smoking at work has remained stable over the period. The smoking trend reduced in the period in most indicators, reflecting the importance of the tobacco control actions in the country.

Abstract:
Objective:To examine the volume of television toy advertising targeting Canadian children and to determine if it promotes active or sedentary play, targets males or females more frequently, and has changed over time.Methods:Data for toy/game advertising from 27 television stations in Toronto for the month of May in 2006 and 2013 were licensed from Neilsen Media Research (Montreal, Quebec, Canada). A content analysis was performed on all ads to determine what age group and gender were targeted and whether physical or sedentary activity was being promoted. Comparisons were made between 2006 and 2013.Results:There were 3.35 toy ads/h/children’s specialty station in 2013 (a 15% increase from 2006). About 88% of toy ads promoted sedentary play in 2013, a 27% increase from 2006 levels, while toy ads promoting active play decreased by 33%. In both 2006 and 2013, a greater number of sedentary toy ads targeted males (n = 1519, May 2006; n = 2030, May 2013) compared with females (n = 914, May 2006; n = 1619, May 2013), and between 2006 and 2013, these ads increased significantly for both males and females.Conclusion:Future research should explore whether such advertising influences children’s preferences for activities and levels of physical activity.

Abstract:
A Thesis submitted to The University of Arizona College of Medicine - Phoenix in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Medicine.<br>Background: One out of every three cancer diagnoses is a skin cancer, and the incidence of both melanoma and non‐melanoma type skin cancers is increasing. Skin cancers, including melanoma, are typically treatable if detected early. However, there is insufficient evidence to support recommendations to establish population based skin cancer screening programs. The specific aims of this study are 1) to evaluate characteristics of participants who attend a community skin cancer screening event and who are referred for follow up due to suspicious lesions, 2) to determine the proportion of participants with suspicious lesions identified at a community skin cancer screening event who complied with a request to visit a dermatologist or primary care physician, and 3) to evaluate attitudes toward sun protection practices, and perceived risk of developing skin cancer among participants who attend a community skin cancer screening and have a suspicious skin lesion. Methods: The Skin Cancer Institute sponsored a series of community skin cancer screening events in Tucson, Arizona from 2006 to 2013. Participants completed an American Academy of Dermatology screening form prior to a skin examination by a dermatologist. Participants with suspicious lesions identified at the examination who agreed to be contacted again received questionnaires 4 months after the initial screening to assess compliance with follow‐up recommendations, and their sun protection practices and risk perceptions. Results: 1979 community members attended the skin cancer screenings. The majority of the participants were Caucasian, females, had blue eyes and brown hair, were college educated, had no prior personal or family history of skin cancer, had health insurance but did not have a regular dermatologist, reported that they had never been to a skin cancer screening before, and stated that without this screening that they would not have their skin examined. 748 (37.8%) of community members were referred and instructed to see a dermatologist for further evaluation of a skin lesion. Of the 441 participants with a suspicious lesion who consented to participate in the follow‐up study, 120 returned a questionnaire; 90 (75%) reported that they followed up with a dermatologist or physician, and 30 (25%) did not. Of the 90 participants who followed up, 53% received a skin biopsy. The self reported diagnoses from the biopsies of the suspicious skin lesions were the following: 1% atypical or dysplastic nevus, 21% actinic keratosis, 16% basal cell carcinoma, 8% squamous cell carcinoma, 2% melanoma, and 38% did not have skin cancer. Conclusions/Impact: This study demonstrated that 38% of community skin cancer screening participants were referred for follow up due to a suspicious skin lesion being identified during a skin cancer screening event. It also appeared that 75% of those who responded to the follow‐up questionnaire complied with the request within four months, although the response rate for the follow‐up questionnaire was low. Therefore, implementing a formal reminder system following the skin cancer screenings may increase the percentage of participants who follow up with a primary care physician or dermatologist after the screening for further evaluation of their suspicious skin lesion.

Ainda, o estudo apresenta uma análise econométrica que verifica o comportamento e inter-relação entre gasto social público e receita líquida do Governo Central e conclui pela relativa independência na evolução dessas variáveis. ______________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT<br>The study shows the evolution of the Brazilian public social spending for the period between 2006 and 2013 and analyzes the impact on public accounts derived from this type of expense. From a programmatic analysis of the expenditure, the study shows an increase of social spending for the analyzed period, driven primarily by a significant increase in the revenue of the Central Government, on control of payroll expenditures and a significant reduction in the primary surplus generated by the public sector, resulting in uncertainty as to the possibility of maintaining social spending at high levels for years to come. The study also presents an econometric analysis which verifies the behavior and interrelationship between public social spending and Central Government net revenue and concludes by the relative independence of the evolution of these variables.

Abstract:
Introdução: As mudanças ocorridas nas últimas décadas nos perfis de morbimortalidade da população, com destaque para o grande aumento na prevalência de doenças crônicas não transmissíveis (DCNT), estão diretamente relacionadas a fatores de riscos modificáveis como tabagismo, prática insuficiente de atividade física, alimentação inadequada e consumo de álcool. Objetivo: Descrever a tendência temporal da prática de atividade física no lazer nas capitais brasileiras e no Distrito Federal no período entre 2006 e 2013. Métodos: Dados do Sistema de Vigilância de Fatores de Risco e Proteção para Doenças Crônicas Não Transmissíveis por Entrevista Telefônica (Vigitel) foram utilizados. No Período em estudo, 2006 a 2013, o Vigitel realizou uma média anual superior a 50 mil entrevistas junto a indivíduos adultos idade 18 anos) residindo em domicílios com ao menos uma linha de telefone fixo. As principais qestões do Vigitel de interesse desse estudo tratam da frequência, intensidade e tipo de atividade física realizada no lazer. A tendência temporal da atividade física no lazer e seus componentes foi analisada para o conjunto completo da população estudada pelo Vigitel e também segundo estratos de sexo, idade e escolaridade. Resultados: No período entre 2006 e 2013 verificou-se aumento significativo (p<0,05) tanto no percentual de indivíduos que feriram ter praticado atividade física no lazer nos três meses que antecederam a entrevista (44,0 a 47,2 por cento , 0,53pp/ano) quanto entre aqueles que referiam praticar atividade física ao menos uma vez por semana (40,8 a 45,1 por cento , 0,61pp/ano). Quanto aos componentes da atividade física no lazer, verificou-se uma maior presença (p<0,05) das atividades de intensidade moderada, assim como uma tendência de aumento da frequência semanal e da duração dos episódios de prática. Como resultado disso, o percentual de indivíduos atingindo as recomendações internacionais de prática de atividade física aumentou (p<0,05) de 30,3 a 33,8 por cento entre 2009 a 2013 (0,99pp/ano). De forma geral, os aumentos foram mais frequentes entre as mulheres, os indivíduos adultos jovens e entre aqueles de maior escolaridade. Conclusão: Verificou-se aumento dos níveis de prática de atividade física no lazer em grande parte das situações investigadas. Ainda que esse aumento tenha reduzido as diferenças vislumbradas entre homens e mulheres, ele acentuou as diferenças entre indivíduos mais jovens e mais velhos e entre aqueles nos níveis extremos de escolaridade.<br>Introduction: Changes in recent decades in the populations morbidity and mortality profiles, highlighted a large increase in the prevalence chronic noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) directly related to modifiable risk factors such as smoking, insufficient physical activity, unhealthy diet and alcohol consumption. Objective: To describe trends in physical activity during leisure time in Brazilian state capitals and the Federal District between 2006 and 2013. Methods: Data from the Telephone Surveilance System for Risk and Protective Factors for Chronic Noncommunicable Diseases (Vigitel) were used. During the study period, from 2006 to 2013, the Vigitel held an annual average of 50,000 interviews with adults (age 18 years) living in households with at least one fixed telephone line. The Vigitel information of main concern of this study is the frequency, duration and intensity of physical activity performed during leisure time. Time trends in physical activity during leisure time and its components were studied for the complete set of the population studied by Vigitel and also according strata of sex, age and education. Results: Between 2006 and 2013 there was a significant increase (p<0.05) in both the percentage of individuals who reported having practiced physical activity during leisure time in the three months preceding the interview (from 44.0 to 47.2 per cent 0,53pp/year) and among those who reported physical activity at least once a week (40.8 to 45.1 per cent , 0.61pp/year). As for the components of physical activity during leisure time, there was an increase in the presence (p<0.05) of low or moderate-intensity activities as well as a tendency to increase the weekly frequency and duration of episodes of practice. As a result, the percentage of individuals reaching the international recommendations for physical activity increased (p<0.05) from 30.3 to 33.8 per cent between 2009 and 2013 (0.99pp/year). Overall, the increases were ore frequent among women, young adults and among those with higher education. Conclusion: An increase of the levels of practice of physical activity during leisure time was verified in most of the investigated situations. Although this increase has reduced the differences in the level of practice between men and women, he emphasized the differences between younger and older individuals and among those in extreme levels of education.

Abstract:
This dissertation examines the role of military officers as policy implementers by investigating the discretion of Swedish force commanders in the multinational military campaign in Afghanistan between 2006 and 2013. By developing an analytical framework that takes both an outside-in and an inside-out perspective, and that encompasses both the objective implications that structural factors project on force commanders as well as their subjective perceptions of those structural factors, and applying that framework to a range of official documents as well as unique interview data, the thesis describes the discretion that force commanders have had in interpreting, choosing and shaping their mission and concept of operations. The findings show that Swedish force commanders in the Afghanistan campaign have had considerable discretion in interpreting and framing the principal’s overarching mission, the mission of their own force, as well as their force’s concept of operations. Their discretion can be understood as a combination of structurally induced freedom to make choices, the force commanders’ perceptions of that freedom and their inclination to use it. Circumstances regarding structural factors such as duality of command, passive authority of superiors, non-specific tasks and ambiguous implications of allocated resources has created this discretion and rendered force commanders disproportionately influential in the policy implementation process. Although this influence can be regarded as a manifestation of modern management ideals such as Auftragstaktik and mission command in the military, or management by objectives in government and business, it can also be regarded as a downwards passing of the buck where strategic implementation decisions trickle down to the level of force commanders in the field, making them “strategic colonels”.

Abstract:
This article analyzes the factors that contributed to Cesar Alvarez’s administration stability as regional president of Ancash during almost two full consecutive terms (2006 – 2013). Thus, the research focuses on the development of clientelistic and patronage networks that strength- ened his ties with citizens, providing him with constant support. Moreover, those practices protected him from any act of fiscalization or investigation. Finally, public spending, largely financed with mining canon, made possible for Alvarez to show himself as an efficient regional president by developing major infrastructure projects in the region.<br>El presente artículo se centra en los factores que dieron estabilidad a la gestión del expresidente regional de Áncash,  César Álvarez,  durante casi dos periodos consecutivos (2006- 2013) y con probables miras hacia uno tercero. De esta manera, la investigación se enfoca en el desarrollo de redes clientelares y de patronazgo que fortalecieron los nexos que estableció con la ciudadanía, proporcionándole apoyo constante. Asimismo, aquellas prácticas le sirvieron de blindaje ante cualquier acto de fiscalización o investigación. Por último, el gasto público en gran parte producto del canon minero, hizo que Álvarez se demuestre como una autoridad eficiente alpromocionar grandes obras de infraestructura -sobrevaloradas- en la región.

Abstract:
Bien qu’évoluant dans un cadre national dépourvu d’institutions étatiques, le Hamas exerce bel et bien une politique étrangère qui s’explique bien plus par les intérêts que par l’idéologie. L’analyse des processus de décision internes au mouvement le confirme. Agissant comme des filtrent des intérêts et des propositions idéologiques, ces processus, plus ou moins inclusifs en fonction du contexte et de la nature des décisions, illustrent l’importance des intérêts et la marginalité du rôle de l’idéologie. Seule la trêve conclue en juin 2008 avec Israël a donné lieu à des divergences idéologiques et à conduit au départ de certains membres de la branche armée du mouvement qui ont alors choisi de rejoindre des groupes salafistes. Au-delà de ces divergences, les intérêts des différents acteurs au sein du Hamas convergent au moins parce qu’ils cherchent tous à garantir la prépondérance politique de leur mouvement. La politique étrangère leur permet de réaliser un certain nombre d’intérêts à la fois extérieurs et intérieurs: obtenir la reconnaissance diplomatique et symbolique, rechercher des ressources matérielles, assurer leur domination sur la bande de Gaza et enfin concurrencer leurs adversaires nationalistes et islamistes. Les propositions idéologiques sont constamment adaptées pour accompagner la défense de ces différents intérêts<br>The present thesis argues that the Palestinian movement Hamas pursues its own foreign policy even though it may be considered a non state actor, or a semi-state actor at best. The key independent variables determining this foreign policy are internal decision-making processes and various types of interests that in the vast majority of cases prevail upon ideological considerations. Decision making processes vary from period to period and sometimes from case to case. Sometimes their output reflects a compromise of competing interests, even though these compromises are always biased in favour of the stronger groups or factions within the movement. Only the 2008 truce with Israel gave rise to substantial ideological debates which left their trace in the run-up to this event and subsequent cleavages and defections, in particular to the al-Qassam brigades. In spite of various diverging interests, the leaders and members of Hamas share a basic objective which is to guarantee the political supremacy of their movement in Palestine. Its foreign policy enables Hamas to pursue a number of interests both external and internal: to obtain diplomatic and symbolic recognition, mobilize material and symbolical ressources, secure its domination over the Gaza strip, and compete with its nationalist and islamist opponents. Ideological propositions are constantly adapted to these different interests

Abstract:
ZusammenfassungMedium-term price continuation, commonly defined as momentum, is a widespread phenomenon in financial markets. It exists for individual stocks (Jegadeesh and Titman, 1993), for industry sectors (Moskowitz and Grinblatt, 1999), for style portfolios (Lewellen, 2002), in international equity markets (Rouwenhorst, 1998; Chui et al., 2010), and across asset classes (Bhojraj and Swaminathan, 2006; Menkhoff et al., 2012; Asness et al., 2013). Momentum also appears to be persistent over time, at least outside the U.S. stock market (Jegadeesh and Titman, 2001; McLean and Pontif, 2016; Green et al., 2017; Jacobs and Müller, 2020).

ZusammenfassungIm vorhergehenden Abschnitt 2.3 wurde bereits angedeutet, dass zurzeit kein einheitliches Verständnis von den Funktionen, Inhalten und Zwecken personalisierten Lernens vorliegt (Chiosso, 2012; OECD, 2006; Prain et al., 2013). Wie in Abschnitt 1.1 einleitend festgehalten wurde, wird personalisiertes Lernen deshalb auch als mehrere Dimensionen beinhaltender „Container-Begriff“ (Stebler et al., 2017, S. 5) oder „umbrella term“ (Kallick &amp; Zmuda, 2017, S. 2) bezeichnet. So nehmen Autorinnen und Autoren, die den Begriff verwenden, in unterschiedlicher Gewichtung Bezug auf etablierte pädagogische Ziele und didaktische Konzepte wie zum Beispiel innere Differenzierung (u. a. Klafki &amp; Stöcker, 1976), Individualisierung (u. a. Bräu, 2005), individuelle Förderung (Klieme &amp; Warwas, 2011) oder die bereits oben beschriebenen erweiterten Lehr- und Lernformen respektive Formen des offenen Unterrichts (u. a. Peschel, 2003).

Abstract:
The main purpose of this study is that to test empirically relationship between Intra-Industry Trade (IIT) and Foreign Direct Investment (FDI). In this study, the relationship between IIT and FDI was analysed using time series analysis for the Turkish transport equipment sector. For this purpose, FDI, import and export data in the transport equipment sector were obtained from the Central Bank of the Republic of Turkey and Turkish Statistical Institute. The period of the study has been limited between 2006:01 and 2013:11 due to constraints in the relevant data about the Turkish economy. In this study, the Grubel - Lloyd index have been derived using import and export values for the transport equipment sector in Turkey. This index and FDI in the transport equipment sector has been tested by the Granger causality analysis. The existence empirical and theoretical literature has not been reached any consensus about the relationship between the variables. Some researchers found a bilateral sign between FDI and IIT, while another studies show that there is some presence of unidirectional causality. This study's findings indicate that there is a unidirectional causality from FDI to IIT in the Turkish Transport equipment sector.

Wright, Kirsten. Collecting Plant Phenology Data In Imperiled Oregon White Oak Ecosystems: Analysis and Recommendations for Metro. Portland State University, 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.15760/mem.64.

Full text
Abstract:
Highly imperiled Oregon white oak ecosystems are a regional conservation priority of numerous organizations, including Oregon Metro, a regional government serving over one million people in the Portland area. Previously dominant systems in the Pacific Northwest, upland prairie and oak woodlands are now experiencing significant threat, with only 2% remaining in the Willamette Valley in small fragments (Hulse et al. 2002). These fragments are of high conservation value because of the rich biodiversity they support, including rare and endemic species, such as Delphinium leucophaeum (Oregon Department of Agriculture, 2020). Since 2010, Metro scientists and volunteers have collected phenology data on approximately 140 species of forbs and graminoids in regional oak prairie and woodlands. Phenology is the study of life-stage events in plants and animals, such as budbreak and senescence in flowering plants, and widely acknowledged as a sensitive indicator of environmental change (Parmesan 2007). Indeed, shifts in plant phenology have been observed over the last few decades as a result of climate change (Parmesan 2006). In oak systems, these changes have profound implications for plant community composition and diversity, as well as trophic interactions and general ecosystem function (Willis 2008). While the original intent of Metro’s phenology data-collection was to track long-term phenology trends, limitations in data collection methods have made such analysis difficult. Rather, these data are currently used to inform seasonal management decisions on Metro properties, such as when to collect seed for propagation and when to spray herbicide to control invasive species. Metro is now interested in fine-tuning their data-collection methods to better capture long-term phenology trends to guide future conservation strategies. Addressing the regional and global conservation issues of our time will require unprecedented collaboration. Phenology data collected on Metro properties is not only an important asset for Metro’s conservation plan, but holds potential to support broader research on a larger scale. As a leader in urban conservation, Metro is poised to make a meaningful scientific contribution by sharing phenology data with regional and national organizations. Data-sharing will benefit the common goal of conservation and create avenues for collaboration with other scientists and conservation practitioners (Rosemartin 2013). In order to support Metro’s ongoing conservation efforts in Oregon white oak systems, I have implemented a three-part master’s project. Part one of the project examines Metro’s previously collected phenology data, providing descriptive statistics and assessing the strengths and weaknesses of the methods by which the data were collected. Part two makes recommendations for improving future phenology data-collection methods, and includes recommendations for datasharing with regional and national organizations. Part three is a collection of scientific vouchers documenting key plant species in varying phases of phenology for Metro’s teaching herbarium. The purpose of these vouchers is to provide a visual tool for Metro staff and volunteers who rely on plant identification to carry out aspects of their job in plant conservation. Each component of this project addresses specific aspects of Metro’s conservation program, from day-to-day management concerns to long-term scientific inquiry.
