Abstract:
O artigo que ofereço ao leitor tem por objetivo apresentar um conjunto documental bastante completo, complexo e denso, que foi produzido pela Sociedade dos Artistas Mecânicos e Liberais entre meados do século XIX e meados do século XX. Contudo, nesse texto, restringi minhas análises às fontes relativas ao período imperial – material que embasou minha tese de doutorado, defendida na Universidade Estadual de Campinas, em fevereiro 2009, sob o título “Andaimes, casacas, tijolos e livros: uma associação de artífices no Recife, 1836-1880”, e meu estágio pós-doutoral. Localizada na capital da província de Pernambuco, a referida entidade artística reuniu mestres de ofícios pretos e pardos, brasileiros, livres e libertos, que promoviam práticas de auxílio mútuo e aulas noturnas – inicialmente para os sócios e depois para o público em geral. Junto da análise e da descrição das referidas fontes, também indicarei meus caminhos na pesquisa empírica e minhas escolhas metodológicas.

Abstract:
Se reporta los resultados de un estudio de campo y gabinete para determinar el coeficiente de descarga ( ) de una “compuerta desgravadora” de sistema de almacenamiento y captación de agua de un proyecto hidroenergético. En la mayoría de los proyectos hidroenergéticos, el agua se capta desde una represa construida en el cauce de un río. Aguas abajo de la represa las condiciones de vida en el río se alteran. Para remediar esta situación, principalmente en épocas de estiaje, se libera agua desde la represa de manera controlada (caudal ecológico) operando, usualmente, la compuerta desgravadora. En ese contexto, el problema de los operadores del embalse está relacionado con la abertura de la compuerta que garantice el caudal ecológico para un determinado nivel de agua en el embalse. Para abordar esta problemática, se midieron el caudal aguas abajo de la compuerta para 3 aberturas relativas de ésta (5%, 10% y 15%) y diferentes niveles de agua en el embalse. Con estos datos se hallaron valores de . Los resultados muestran que Cd tiende a aumentar para aberturas menores de 15%. Esta tendencia podría estar influenciada por la geometría del labio inferior de la compuerta.

Abstract:
The article examines the monarchies of Qatar, Jordan, and Morocco to demonstrate how specific policies and ideologies do not necessarily correspond with the label of “moderate,” which instead primarily reflects a reputational strategy. Prior to 2011, Qatar had cultivated an image as a relatively “liberal” Gulf monarchy, but although few policy changes occurred, after 2011 the emirate was seen as sponsoring terrorism. The government of Morocco developed a reputation for promoting “moderate Islam,” yet religious intolerance persists, while the Jordanian regime has focused less on cultivating a moderate image than previously. Government efforts to develop a specific reputation reflect strategic maneuvering for both international religious soft power as well as consolidation of domestic control. Combining nine months of ethnographic fieldwork involving interviews with government officials, religious bureaucrats, and embassy personnel, the paper offers insights into how the strategic use of reputation has shifted in the post-2011 context.

Abstract:
SUMMARYPhenomenological and mechanistic models are widely used to assist resource planning for pandemics and emerging infections. We conducted a systematic review, to compare methods and outputs of published phenomenological and mechanistic modelling studies pertaining to the 2013–2016 Ebola virus disease (EVD) epidemics in four West African countries – Sierra Leone, Liberia, Guinea and Nigeria. We searched Pubmed, Embase and Scopus databases for relevant English language publications up to December 2015. Of the 874 articles identified, 41 met our inclusion criteria. We evaluated these selected studies based on: the sources of the case data used, and modelling approaches, compartments used, population mixing assumptions, model fitting and calibration approaches, sensitivity analysis used and data bias considerations. We synthesised results of the estimated epidemiological parameters: basic reproductive number (R0), serial interval, latent period, infectious period and case fatality rate, and examined their relationships. The median of the estimated meanR0values were between 1·30 and 1·84 in Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea. Much higherR0value of 9·01 was described for Nigeria. We investigated several issues with uncertainty around EVD modes of transmission, and unknown observation biases from early reported case data. We found that epidemic models offeredR0mean estimates which are country-specific, but these estimates are not associating with the use of several key disease parameters within the plausible ranges. We find simple models generally yielded similar estimates ofR0compared with more complex models. Models that accounted for data uncertainty issues have offered a higher case forecast compared with actual case observation. Simple model which offers transparency to public health policy makers could play a critical role for advising rapid policy decisions under an epidemic emergency.

Abstract:
Abstract Canada is and will for the foreseeable future be a peaceful and prosperous liberal democracy whose Constitution Act, 1867, now 150 years old as of 2017, has become a model for the modern world. The Constitution of Canada has exerted considerable influence on other countries, particularly since the coming into force of its Constitution Act, 1982, which included the celebrated Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Just as Canada drew from foreign and international experiences in drafting its Charter, the world has learned a great deal from Canada, not only as to rights protections but also as to the separation of powers, the judicial function, and the structure of government. In light of these impressive achievements, an international symposium on the Canadian Constitution was held in Pisa at the Scuola Sant’Anna under the auspices of the Sant’Anna Legal Studies project and with the support of the DIRPOLIS (Law, Politics and Development) Institute at the Scuola Sant’Anna, the Canadian Embassy in Italy, and the International Association of Constitutional Law. This special issue collects some of the papers presented on that occasion.

Abstract:
Background The optimal glycemic target during the perioperative period is still controversial. We aimed to explore the effects of tight glycemic control (TGC) on surgical mortality and morbidity. Methods PubMed, EMBASE and CENTRAL were searched from January 1, 1946 to February 28, 2018. Appropriate trails comparing the postoperative outcomes (mortality, hypoglycemic events, acute kidney injury, etc.) between different levels of TGC and liberal glycemic control were identified. Quality assessments were performed with the Jadad scale combined with the allocation concealment evaluation. Pooled relative risk (RR) and 95% CI were calculated using random effects models. Heterogeneity was detected by the I2 test. Results Twenty-six trials involving a total of 9315 patients were included in the final analysis. The overall mortality did not differ between tight and liberal glycemic control (RR, 0.92; 95% CI, 0.78–1.07; I 2 = 20.1%). Among subgroup analyses, obvious decreased risks of mortality were found in the short-term mortality, non-diabetic conditions, cardiac surgery conditions and compared to the very liberal glycemic target. Furthermore, TGC was associated with decreased risks for acute kidney injury, sepsis, surgical site infection, atrial fibrillation and increased risks of hypoglycemia and severe hypoglycemia. Conclusions Compared to liberal control, perioperative TGC (the upper level of glucose goal ≤150 mg/dL) was associated with significant reduction of short-term mortality, cardic surgery mortality, non-diabetic patients mortality and some postoperative complications. In spite of increased risks of hypoglycemic events, perioperative TGC will benefits patients when it is done carefully.

Abstract:
Background. The perioperative management of pancreaticoduodenectomy is complicated, and the significant morbidity and mortality may be influenced by the method of intraoperative fluid management. Whether intraoperative restrictive fluid therapy can affect the outcomes of pancreaticoduodenectomy or not is controversial. Methods. PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and clinicaltrials.gov were searched for prospective and retrospective studies comparing restrictive and liberal intraoperative fluids in patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy. Following study identification, a systematic review and meta-analysis were performed. Results. Fourteen studies, including six prospective trials and eight retrospective studies, involving 2,596 patients, were included. Intraoperative restrictive fluid regimens had no effect on the mortality compared to liberal fluid regimens in the overall cohort (odds ratio [OR]: 1.39; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.82–2.35, p = 0.773 ). Liberal fluid regimens could increase the risk of pulmonary adverse events (OR: 1.66; 95% CI: 1.10–2.50, p = 0.131 ) and prolong the length of hospital stay (SMD -0.10; 95% CI -0.19– -0.01, p = 0.375 ). There were no significant differences in the incidence of pancreatic fistulas. Conclusions. Restrictive fluid regimens have a slight effect on the outcomes of pancreaticoduodenectomy. The clinical relevance of this finding needs to be interpreted. The existing evidence may not be adequate; therefore, further studies are warranted.

Abstract:
La contribución de los embalses tropicales a las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero (GEI) ha sido objeto de estudio recientemente, debido a los procesos de degradación y transformación del material vegetal que son llevados a cabo en estos, los cuales liberan metano y dióxido de carbono, aportando al cambio climático. En el presente trabajo, se realizaron ensayos en discontinuo utilizando material vegetal de la zona de inundación del embalse Topocoro (Santander-Colombia), con el objetivo de determinar los flujos de CH4 y CO2 de dicho material, simulando condiciones de inundación aerobias y anaerobias previas al llenado. Las mediciones de gases se realizaron empleando cromatografía de gases-masas (GC-MS). Las tasas de emisión bajo condiciones anaerobias variaron entre 118,513 – 377,666 Kg CH4 ton-1.año-1 y 120,870 – 553,758 Kg CO2 ton-1.año-1, mientras que bajo condiciones aerobias las tasas de emisión fueron menores, con valores que oscilaron entre 0,73 y 8,83 Kg CO2 ton-1.año-1. Las emisiones producidas estuvieron determinadas principalmente por la cantidad de material vegetal inundado y por la presencia de organismos aerobios y anaerobios presentes en los sistemas en batch.

Abstract:
ObjectivesWe employed a comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis to assess benefits and risks of a threshold of haemoglobin level below 7 g/dL versus liberal transfusion strategy among critically ill patients, and even patients with septic shock.DesignSystematic review and meta-analysis.Data sourcesWe performed systematical searches for relevant randomised controlled trials (RCTs) in the Cochrane Library, EMBASE and PubMed databases up to 1 September 2019.Eligibility criteriaRCTs among adult intensive care unit (ICU) patients comparing 7 g/dL as restrictive strategy with liberal transfusion were incorporated.Data extraction and synthesisThe clinical outcomes, including short-term mortality, length of hospital stay, length of ICU stay, myocardial infarction (MI) and ischaemic events, were screened and analysed after data collection. We applied odds ratios (ORs) to analyse dichotomous outcomes and standardised mean differences (SMDs) to analyse continuous outcomes with fixed or random effects models based on heterogeneity evaluation for each outcome.ResultsEight RCTs with 3415 patients were included. Compared with a more liberal threshold, a red blood cell (RBC) transfusion threshold <7 g/dL haemoglobin showed no significant difference in short-term mortality (OR: 0.90, 95% CI: 0.67 to 1.21, p=0.48, I2=53%), length of hospital stay (SMD: −0.11, 95% CI: −0.30 to 0.07, p=0.24, I2=71%), length of ICU stay (SMD: −0.03, 95% CI: −0.14 to 0.08, p=0.54, I2=0%) or ischaemic events (OR: 0.80, 95% CI: 0.43 to 1.48, p=0.48, I2=51%). However, we found that the incidence of MI (OR: 0.54, 95% CI: 0.30 to 0.98, p=0.04, I2=0%) was lower in the group with the threshold <7 g/dL than that with the more liberal threshold.ConclusionsAn RBC transfusion threshold <7 g/dL haemoglobin is incapable of decreasing short-term mortality in ICU patients according to currently published evidences, while it might have potential role in reducing MI incidence.

Abstract:
Amid ongoing political instability, sarimbavy — same-sex-desiring and/or gender-expansive male-bodied persons — are increasingly rendered opportune subjects ripe for intervention across Madagascar by HIV prevention industries, homonationalist LGBT rights projects backed by the United States Embassy, and many Christian institutions. This article diverges from these biomedical and moral panics by attending to the shifting temporal allegiances of sarimbavy spirit medium-activists. Interlocutors’ roles as mediums to spirits of former reigning monarchs (tromba) necessitated an onerous dedication to Malagasy history (tantara) and tradition (fombandrazana); simultaneously, many sarimbavy mediums were also men who have sex with men (MSM) activists, and thus deeply committed to moving beyond what they saw as the stigma-ridden past and present. These activist engagements and the sarimbavy counterpublics that they produced were uncannily facilitated by mediumship social networks. Through these practices of monarchic veneration, sarimbavy medium-activists implicitly challenged Western expectations that queer social movements must emerge through the subversion of social norms and secular, liberal, democratic reform. In surrendering to the seemingly antidemocratic weight of divine queen-kingship, sarimbavy mediums became “possessed” by political organizations irreducible to the modern nation-state and its colonial genealogies and, furthermore, produced human-spirit relationalities that thwarted Western juridicolegal visions of a bounded, rights-bearing subject.

Abstract:
This introductory chapter provides an overview of the relationship between Eduardo Frei's Revolution in Liberty and the United States. For the United States foreign policy apparatus, the Christian Democratic Party of Chile appeared to be a model partner in the realization of the goals of the Alliance for Progress, the Latin American policy conceived by President John F. Kennedy and continued, though without the same level of enthusiasm and hope, by his successor, Lyndon B. Johnson. In its original conception, Kennedy's Latin American policy had ambitious economic, social, and political goals. The channeling of aid from the United States to Latin American countries in the 1960s sought to reflect the interplay between those aims, even if the implementation of the Alliance for Progress sorely lacked in consistency and constancy. In the case of Chile and Eduardo Frei's Revolution in Liberty, the exceptionally generous provision of aid by the United States went hand in hand with a deep involvement of agents of U.S. foreign policy, especially the political staff of the embassy in Santiago, in the day-to-day functioning of Chilean politics—welcomed and, in many cases, invited by local actors.
