    Esta tese parte da função substantiva da Filologia ao realizar a transcrição semidiplomática de cem documentos oficiais setecentistas chancelados no período de 1765 a 1775. Esse conjunto contempla exemplares da documentação administrativa ascendente (ativa) e descendente (passiva) do Governador e Capitão-General da capitania de São Paulo, o Morgado de Mateus. O Morgado de Mateus é ora autor, ora interlocutor da Coroa Portuguesa, personificada na autoridade superior do Rei Dom José, que é representado pelo ministro do Reino, o Conde de Oeiras (posteriormente, Marquês de Pombal) e por dois secretários do Reino, Francisco Xavier de Mendonça Furtado e Martinho de Melo e Castro. Com base nas funções filológica, adjetiva e transcendente, analisam-se os documentos do corpus com o apoio das ciências auxiliares da Filologia: a Codicologia, a Crítica Textual, a Diplomática e a Paleografia. A partir dessas abordagens, retratam-se padrões de diferenciação de ordem codicológica, diplomática e paleográfica entre os documentos ativos e os passivos. A oposição entre documentos ativos e passivos (ou ascendentes e descendentes) também se estabelece em nível textual. Para a identificação de diferentes padrões discursivos no corpus, partimos de pressupostos da Linguística Sistêmico-Funcional (LSF), prescrita por Halliday e Matthiessen (2004), que considera a língua como uma rede de sistemas capaz de produzir significados de acordo com o contexto em que é utilizada. A língua, concebida como um sistema aberto e dinâmico orientado para a ação e para a reflexão, é empregada tanto para construir e comunicar as experiências humanas quanto para a negociação das relações interpessoais envolvidas na comunicação, cumprindo as duas metafunções ideacional e interpessoal. Complementar a elas, a metafunção textual seria a codificação dos textos, como processos de significação da língua, produzidos em relação a um dado contexto de ordem situacional e sociocultural. A importância atribuída ao contexto pela LSF acrescenta o viés da contextualização histórica às análises da construção e da estruturação discursivo-textual do corpus. Em tais análises destaca-se a metafunção interpessoal por meio das marcas linguísticas indicativas de valoração. Por conta desses destaques, adota-se a Teoria da Avaliatividade postulada por Martin e White (2005). Dessa forma, apoiadas as análises em pressupostos teórico-metodológicos que permitem um refinamento analítico nos subsistemas da Atitude, da Gradação e do Engajamento, reiteraram-se as distinções entre os eixos ascendente e descendente do corpus. Para aprofundar as análises, classificaram-se os documentos, tendo-se em vista o tipo de negociação intersubjetiva almejado. Em acréscimo ao levantamento dos recursos avaliativos pelos quais se vislumbram aspectos da intersubjetividade e da ideologia em voga, mapeiam-se as fórmulas inerentes à documentação oficial administrativa. A associação das perspectivas filológica e discursiva adotadas visam a comprovar a hipótese central desta tese, que é a seguinte: a correspondência oficial analisada apresenta diferentes padrões filológicos e discursivos, condicionados por fatores socioculturais e linguísticos que incidem sobre quem escreve e sobre quem controla a escrita desses documentos.This doctoral dissertation deals with the substantive function of Philology by performing the semidiplomatic transcription of 100 eighteenth-century official documents registered by the chancelleries within the period from 1765 to 1775. This range of official handwritten documents covers examples of the administrative documentation as much the ascendant type (active) as the descendant type (passive) of the governor and captain-general of the captaincy of São Paulo, the Morgado de Mateus. The Morgado de Mateus figures as the author in the active documents and in the passive ones as the interlocutor of the Portuguese Kingdom, which is personified by the superior authority of the King Joseph I. The king is represented by the minister of the Kingdom, the Count of Oeiras (posteriorly, the Marquis of Pombal) and its two secretaries, Francisco Xavier de Mendonça Furtado and Martinho de Melo e Castro. The analysis of the corpus is developed on the basis of the philological, adjective and transcendent functions and supported by the light of auxiliary sciences of Philology: the Codicology, the Textual Criticism, the Diplomatic and the Paleography. Patterns of differentiation of codicologic, diplomatic and paleographic order depict from this sort of approach among the active and passive documents. The opposition between the active and the passive documents (or ascendant and descendant) is also established at the discursive level. The main theoretical premises behind the attempt of identifying different discursive patterns from the corpus are those of the Systemic-Functional Linguistic shared by Halliday and Matthiessen (2004), which consider the language as a web of systems capable of producing significance according to the context in which it is used. The language assumed as an open and dynamic system oriented to the acting and the thinking is employed as much in order to build and communicate human experiences as to negotiate interpersonal relationships involved in communication, accomplishing both metafunctions, ideational and interpersonal. The textual metafunction, as a complement to these, is to be the codification of the texts, as processes of significance in language produced in relation to a given context of situational and sociocultural order. The importance attached to the context by the Systemic-Functional Linguistic designs the lines of historical contextualization to the analysis of the discursive-textual construction and structuring of the corpus. On these grounds, the analysis evidences the interpersonal metafunction by means of the linguistics marks indicating valuation. This study adopts the Appraisal Theory postulated by Martin and White (2005) for the reason of these evidences. In this way, analysis based on theoretic-methodological premises that allow the analytical refining of the subsystems of Attitude, Graduation and Engagement reaffirmed the distinctiveness between the ascendant and the descendant axles of the corpus. Aiming the deepening of the present studies, the documents are classified according to the type of intersubjective negotiation targeted. In addition to the collecting of evaluative resources, by which we envisioned some aspects of the trending intersubjectivity and ideology, this work presents a mapping of the formula inherent to the administrative official documentation. From the outcome of our investigation, carried out through the association of the philological and the discursive perspective, it is provided confirmatory evidence to prove the central hypothesis of this work: the official correspondence analyzed demonstrates the existence of different philological and discursive patterns that are conditioned by factors from sociocultural and linguistic order affecting who writes the documents and also who controls the writing of these sort of papers

    Projeto Eco Creche

    O Projeto Eco Creche tem como objetivo geral levar educação ambiental para creches comunitárias, tendo como conceito, promover uma aprendizagem prática e teórica, através da troca de conhecimentos entre comunidades e a implementação de exemplos de tecnologia social. Como metodologia usaremos ferramentas como cursos de educação ambiental, construção de biodigestores para tratamento biológico dos esgotos e geração de energia, hortas didáticas e instalação de filtros de água para comunitários e nas creches. O projeto foi selecionado no edital da Petrobras Socioambiental e vem sendo implementado desde 2020. Visa atuar em comunidades de baixa renda na região Metropolitana de Rio de Janeiro. Territórios frequentemente marcados por pobreza, violência, narcotráfico, falta de ofertas de educação, saúde, lazer e outros serviços públicos, desemprego, trabalho informal e falta de perspectivas de mobilidade social. A implantação territorial será no município de São Gonçalo, onde 84% da população tem acesso a água potável. Mesmo havendo uma cobertura razoável no nível municipal, pouca água chega às comunidades de baixa renda, onde apenas existe o acesso a água clandestina, um acesso muito precário, não havendo coleta ou tratamento de esgoto. Apenas 39% dos habitantes do município dispõem de coleta de esgotos e 8% de esgotos tratados (Quintslr e Britto 2014, SNIS 2013). Nas comunidades de baixa renda a situação é claramente precária, poucas iniciativas foram realizadas, seja pelo poder público, seja por organizações da sociedade civil. O acesso universal à água potável é uma necessidade fundamental e um direito humano indispensável. É um pré-requisito para a realização de outros direitos humanos. Garantir o acesso de todos seria um grande passo na redução de doenças e mortes, especialmente entre crianças (ONU 2018). Esses temas a serem trabalhados no projeto são importantes porque foram identificados como desafios locais pelas lideranças comunitárias e pelos pais das crianças das creches. O papel que as creches cumprem nas comunidades, resulta no respeito e simpatia dos moradores por esses núcleos de conhecimento e cuidado destinados à primeira infância, através de décadas de trabalho no território. As relações próximas e parceiras durante muitos anos com as creches, permitem que o projeto possa atuar em áreas de difícil acesso, através de uma articulação de instituições comunitárias que trabalham em rede. Como resultado esperamos um engajamento social, através do conhecimento adquirido e a reflexão sobre os problemas ambientais, gerando protagonismo social no encaminhamento de propostas para a resolução dos problemas levantados

    Aims: Given the advances in atrial fibrillation (AF) management and the availability of new European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines, there is a need for the systematic collection of contemporary data regarding the management and treatment of AF in ESC member countries. Methods and results: We conducted a registry of consecutive in- and outpatients with AF presenting to cardiologists in nine participating ESC countries. All patients with an ECG-documented diagnosis of AF confirmed in the year prior to enrolment were eligible. We enroled a total of 3119 patients from February 2012 to March 2013, with full data on clinical subtype available for 3049 patients (40.4% female; mean age 68.8 years). Common comorbidities were hypertension, coronary disease, and heart failure. Lone AF was present in only 3.9% (122 patients). Asymptomatic AF was common, particularly among those with permanent AF. Amiodarone was the most common antiarrhythmic agent used (~20%), while beta-blockers and digoxin were the most used rate control drugs. Oral anticoagulants (OACs) were used in 80% overall, most often vitamin K antagonists (71.6%), with novel OACs being used in 8.4%. Other antithrombotics (mostly antiplatelet therapy, especially aspirin) were still used in one-third of the patients, and no antithrombotic treatment in only 4.8%. Oral anticoagulants were used in 56.4% of CHA 2DS2-VASc = 0, with 26.3% having no antithrombotic therapy. A high HAS-BLED score was not used to exclude OAC use, but there was a trend towards more aspirin use in the presence of a high HAS-BLED score. Conclusion: The EURObservational Research Programme Atrial Fibrillation (EORP-AF) Pilot Registry has provided systematic collection of contemporary data regarding the management and treatment of AF by cardiologists in ESC member countries. Oral anticoagulant use has increased, but novel OAC use was still low. Compliance with the treatment guidelines for patients with the lowest and higher stroke risk scores remains suboptimal. © The Author 2013

    The Leishmania donovani complex comprises four described species: L. donovani, L. archibaldi, L. infantum and L. chagasi. L. chagasi is the only New World species and has been considered similar to L. infantum, although some authors insist on maintenance of its independent species status. L. donovani has at least two major epidemiological subgroups whose relationships are poorly understood. In this thesis, molecular biological techniques were used to investigate the taxonomy and phylogenetic relationships within the L. donovani complex, with isoenzyme analysis (lEA) as reference technique. Random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD) was used to provide anonymous genetic markers which allowed overall comparisons of genomes. Selected target genes and intergenic regions were also amplified by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), namely the major surface protease (msp or gp63), the mini-exon and the ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS). PCR products of intergenic regions between msp genes (ITG/CS and ITG/L), mini-exon and ITS were analysed by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP). Phylogenies generated from each of the methods were compared with that of IEA. L. infantum and L. chagasi were found to be synonymous, whilst L. donovani was found to be more polymorphic than L. infantum and a fourth possible species in the complex, L. archibaldi, was not supported. Six genetic groups of strains were identified in the L. donovani complex, based on all DNA based analyses, which agreed with IEA typing. Pooled data from RFLP and RAPD analyses generated robust phylogenies which were congruent with ITG/CS RFLP and msp DNA sequence based phylogenies, but not with lEA phylogenies. The evolutionary history of the L. donovani complex is analysed in the light of the present results. The diverse typing methods were also evaluated and genetic markers suggested, that are applicable to classification and typing of L. donovani species and strains

    Get PDF
    BMC Health Services Research, vol. 16, suppl. 3 (2016) - Proceedings of the 3rd IPLeiria's International Health CongressBackground: Partnership is commonplace in life and is characterized by a relationship and shared goals as well as common purpose. The research into partnership as a phenomenon among organizations is scarce and nowadays this partnership is more urgent than before to work more effectively and with a greater sense of efficacy. Objective: To explore, via a focus group, the supervisors’ representations about the partnership between the school of nursing and the hospital. Methods: Qualitative study. Five sessions following a focus group approach were developed focusing on a discussion about the partnership between the school of nursing and the hospital. Eighteen supervisors (eleven from the local hospital and seven from the academy) participated in this focus group (nine supervisors allocated equally in two groups). Data collection also included interviews and field notes analysed according to qualitative content analysis. Results: Three categories emerged as cornerstones of a framework. These categories are expectations related to clinical supervision, understanding the partnership between the school of nursing and hospital and a collaborative approach as a way to enhance the development of quality references. Conclusions: This study provides further support for the improvement of the partnership between the school of nursing and the hospital. It identifies the need for a partnership between the school and hospital, which includes preparation/joint planning and meetings
