O bom controle público e as cortes de contas como tribunais da boa governança
Full text linkDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Ciências Jurídicas, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Direito, Florianópolis, 2015.O funcionamento do Poder Público implica uma atividade financeira, de caráter instrumental, cuja finalidade é arrecadar recursos para devolvê-los à sociedade por meio da prestação de serviços públicos. Dentre os princípios e valores constitucionais consagrados pelo Estado brasileiro, encontram-se a justiça financeira e o direito fundamental à boa administração e governança pública, que devem nortear toda a atuação estatal, desde a elaboração até a execução orçamentária. Essa vinculação impõe a eficiência e eficácia do agir do Estado por meio de suas políticas públicas de tributação e de gasto. Os Tribunais de Contas, por sua vez, como órgãos titulares da função de controle da administração pública, colocam-se na posição de promotores ou garantidores do cumprimento desses compromissos constitucionais, devendo cobrar esse engajamento e a adoção de uma boa governança pública por parte de seus jurisdicionados. Essa postura demanda por parte daqueles órgãos um novo paradigma de controle, mais eficiente, eficaz, racional e abrangente, que se traduz na ideia de bom controle público, alçado também à condição de direito fundamental na sociedade contemporânea. A partir da construção dessa nova concepção de controle, e após traçar um diagnóstico do déficit de legitimidade de que padecem as Cortes de Contas brasileiras, o que se sugere no presente trabalho são alguns prognósticos no sentido do redimensionamento material e procedimental dessas instituições, visando combater as anomalias da atuação estatal causadoras de injustiças, notadamente a ineficiência, a ineficácia e a corrupção, de forma que as Cortes de Contas se convertam em verdadeiros Tribunais da Boa Governança Pública.Abstract : The operation of the Government involves a financial activity, that has an instrumental character and whose purpose is to raise funds to return them to society through the provision of public services. Among the constitutional principles and values enshrined by the Brazilian State, are the financial justice and the fundamental right to good public administration and governance, which should guide all the actions of the State, from the preparation to the budget execution. This link requires the efficiency and effectiveness of State acting through its public policies of taxation and expenditure. The Courts of Accounts, in turn, as organs holders of the control function over the public administration, are placed in the position of promoters or guarantors of the compliance with these constitutional commitments and must demand this engagement and the adoption of good public governance from those who are under their jurisdiction. This attitude demands from those organs a new paradigm of control, more efficient, effective, rational and comprehensive, which means the idea of good public control, also elevated to a fundamental right condition in contemporary society. From the construction of this new conception of control, and after tracing a diagnosis of legitimacy deficit suffered by Brazilian Courts of Accounts, which is suggested in this essay are some measures towards the material and procedural resizing of these institutions, in order to combat anomalies of State action that cause injustice, especially inefficiency, ineffectiveness and corruption, so that the Courts of Accounts turn themselves into true Courts of Good Public Governance

E-mail Address: [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] significance has been used extensively to evaluate the results of research studies. Nevertheless, it offers only limited information to clinicians. The assessment of clinical relevance can facilitate the interpretation of the research results into clinical practice. The objective of this study was to explore different methods to evaluate the clinical relevance of the results using a cross-sectional study as an example comparing different neck outcomes between subjects with temporomandibular disorders and healthy controls. Subjects were compared for head and cervical posture, maximal cervical muscle strength, endurance of the cervical flexor and extensormuscles, and electromyographic activity of the cervical flexor muscles during the CranioCervical Flexion Test (CCFT). The evaluation of clinical relevance of the results was performed based on the effect size (ES), minimal important difference (MID), and clinical judgement. The results of this study show that it is possible to have statistical significance without having clinical relevance, to have both statistical significance and clinical relevance, to have clinical relevance without having statistical significance, or to have neither statistical significance nor clinical relevance. The evaluation of clinical relevance in clinical research is crucial to simplify the transfer of knowledge from research into practice. Clinical researchers should present the clinical relevance of their results. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved

Detective fiction in Cuban society and culture.
No full textPhDThe object of this thesis is to reach towards an understanding of Cuban society through a
study of its detective fiction and more particularly contemporary Cuban society through
the novels of the author and critic, Leonardo Padura Fuentes.
The method has been to trace the development of Cuban detective writing and to
read Padura Fuentes in the light of the work of twentieth century Western European
literary critics and philosophers including Raymond Williams, Antonio Gramsci, Terry
Eagleton, Roland Barthes, Jean Paul Sartre, Michel Foucault, Jean François Lyotard and
Jean Baudrillard in order to gain a better understanding of the social and historical
context from which this genre emerged.
By concentrating on the literary texts, I have explored readings which lead out into
an analysis of the broader philosophical, political and historical issues raised by the
Cuban revolution. Since it deals primarily with modes of deviance and notions of legality
and justice within the context of the modern state, detective fiction is particularly well
suited to this type of investigation. The intention is to show how this is as valid in the
Cuban context as it is in advanced capitalist societies where such research has already
been carried out with some success.
The thesis comprises an introduction, ten chapters and a conclusion. The chapters
are divided into three sections. Chapters 1 to 3 attempt a broad theoretical, historical and
socio-political analysis of the cultural reality within which the Cuban revolutionary
detective genre emerged. Chapters 4 to 6 analyse the Cuban detective narrative from its
inception in the early part of the twentieth century until the emergence of Leonardo
Padura Fuentes as the foremost exponent of the genre in Cuba after 1991. Chapters 7-
10 concentrate upon the work of Leonardo Padura Fuentes, offering a reading of his
detective tetralogy informed by the preceding discussion.
The contribution made by the thesis to knowledge of the subject is to build upon the
work of Seymour Menton and Amelia S. Simpson on the development of the Cuban
detective novel and to provide analyses of the pre-Revolutionary Cuban detective
narrative and the work of Leonardo Padura Fuentes for the first time in the English
language. The thesis concludes that the study of this popular genre in Cuba is of crucial
importance to the scholar who wishes to reach as full an understanding of the social
dynamics within that society as possible. In particular, it proves that Cuban detective
fiction provides a useful barometer of social change which records the shifts in the Cuban
Zeitgeist that have taken place over the past century

Analysis of Plasmodium falciparum diversity in natural infections by deep sequencing.
Full text linkMalaria elimination strategies require surveillance of the parasite population for genetic changes that demand a public health response, such as new forms of drug resistance. Here we describe methods for the large-scale analysis of genetic variation in Plasmodium falciparum by deep sequencing of parasite DNA obtained from the blood of patients with malaria, either directly or after short-term culture. Analysis of 86,158 exonic single nucleotide polymorphisms that passed genotyping quality control in 227 samples from Africa, Asia and Oceania provides genome-wide estimates of allele frequency distribution, population structure and linkage disequilibrium. By comparing the genetic diversity of individual infections with that of the local parasite population, we derive a metric of within-host diversity that is related to the level of inbreeding in the population. An open-access web application has been established for the exploration of regional differences in allele frequency and of highly differentiated loci in the P. falciparum genome
Elliptic Measures and Square Function Estimates on 1-Sided Chord-Arc Domains
No full textIn nice environments, such as Lipschitz or chord-arc domains, it is well-known that the solvability of the Dirichlet problem for an elliptic operator in , for some finite p, is equivalent to the fact that the associated elliptic measure belongs to the Muckenhoupt class . In turn, any of these conditions occurs if and only if the gradient of every bounded null solution satisfies a Carleson measure estimate. This has been recently extended to much rougher settings such as those of 1-sided chord-arc domains, that is, sets which are quantitatively open and connected with a boundary which is Ahlfors¿David regular. In this paper, we work in the same environment and consider a qualitative analog of the latter equivalence showing that one can characterize the absolute continuity of the surface measure with respect to the elliptic measure in terms of the finiteness almost everywhere of the truncated conical square function for any bounded null solution. As a consequence of our main result particularized to the Laplace operator and some previous results, we show that the boundary of the domain is rectifiable if and only if the truncated conical square function is finite almost everywhere for any bounded harmonic function. In addition, we obtain that for two given elliptic operators and , the absolute continuity of the surface measure with respect to the elliptic measure of is equivalent to the same property for provided the disagreement of the coefficients satisfy some quadratic estimate in truncated cones for almost everywhere vertex. Finally, for the case on which is either the transpose of or its symmetric part we show the equivalence of the corresponding absolute continuity upon assuming that the antisymmetric part of the coefficients has some controlled oscillation in truncated cones for almost every vertex.The first author is supported by Grant FJC2018-038526-I funded by MCIN/AEI/ 10.13039/501100011033.

Author correction: Single-cell guided prenatal derivation of primary fetal epithelial organoids from human amniotic and tracheal fluids
No full textCorrection to: Nature Medicinehttps://doi.org/10.1038/s41591-024-02807-z, published online 4 March 2024. In the version of this article initially published, there were inconsistences, where in the Methods “AF collection and isolation of the viable cell fraction” paragraph, the first sentence, now reading “AF samples (amniocenteses and amniodrainages) were collected from UCLH FMU and UZ Leuven as part of standard patient clinical care”, was initially preceded by “Euploid,” though the sample contained two chromosomal abnormalities; and in Supplementary Table 1, where for sample code HO680, the sex was listed as female following prenatal clinical data, whereas the sample was identified and processed in further analysis as male. The changes have been made in Supplementary Table 1 and in the HTML and PDF versions of the article
