Determinação de áreas de risco de leptospirose humana a partir do diagnóstico molecular em ratos (Rattus norvegicus)

Pellizzaro, Maysa January 2018 (has links)
Orientador: Helio Langoni / Resumo: A leptospirose é a zoonose que mais acomete pessoas em todo o mundo. A infecção é causada pela bactéria Leptospira spp. e os ratos urbanos (Rattus norvegicus) são os principais reservatórios. Os principais fatores de risco são: chuvas, alagamentos, enchentes, presença de lixo, esgoto não canalizado, baixa infraestrutura e baixas condições socioeconômicas. O objetivo deste estudo foi determinar áreas de risco para vigilância da leptospirose humana, analisando a prevalência de Leptospira spp. em ratos e dados do ambiente. Utilizando informações contidas em bancos de dados oficiais e com base na literatura foram determinados os fatores de risco para leptospirose humana em Curitiba-PR. Foram determinados locais para captura dos ratos e coletados rins para análise molecular. A maioria dos setores foi classificado como de baixo risco de transmissão de leptospirose (17/112; 15,17%). Os fatores de risco mais frequentemente encontrados foram área inundável, esgoto a céu aberto e lixo acumulado. A chance dos setores com alto risco de transmissão foi 1,27 vezes maior que em setores de baixo risco. Foram capturados 25 ratos e a frequência de Leptospira spp. foi 17,39% e 68% em soro e rim, respectivamente. Os principais fatores de risco associados aos roedores foram ausências de abastecimento de água, rede ligada a esgoto, pavimentação e com reclamação de roedores. Este estudo reforça a importância da melhoria dos serviços de infraestrutura, diminuindo o contato das pessoas com a bactéria... (Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo) / Mestre

Policies to develop the oil and gas supply chain : essays with emphasis on the lessons and contributions from the norwegian experience to Brazil

Medeiros, Breno Barreto January 2015 (has links)
O objetivo da tese é analisar as diferentes formas de Política Industrial (PI) na Noruega e no Brasil para desenvolver a cadeia produtiva de Petróleo e Gás (P&G), com ênfase em identificar lições e contribuições da experiência norueguesa. A corrente de pensamento de PI evolucionária foi a base teórica da análise. Três ensaios constituem o trabalho, de forma a cumprir o objetivo proposto, sendo os dois primeiros em inglês e o terceiro em português. O primeiro ensaio faz a revisão teórica de políticas industriais, definindo o seu conceito, caracterizando a perspectiva histórica de suas teorias, além de discutir outros aspectos relevantes relacionados ao tema, como, por exemplo: a sua relação com políticas macroeconômicas; a sua estabilidade e previsibilidade; a coordenação das políticas; políticas horizontais e verticais; tipos de instrumentos; mensuração de resultados; o atrelamento de benefícios a progressos em competitividade/metas; e a sua duração. O artigo também discute as principais abordagens nos dias atuais sobre políticas industriais (ortodoxa e evolucionária). Assim, identifica que políticas industriais historicamente foram implementadas em processos de desenvolvimento industrial, e que ainda existe espaço para continuar sendo praticada, a despeito da criação da Organização Mundial do Comércio (OMC) e suas consequências. O segundo ensaio analisa o bem-sucedido desenvolvimento da cadeia produtiva do setor de P&G na Noruega, promovendo mudanças estruturais na sua economia. A Noruega se destacou no desenvolvimento do setor de P&G por conseguir, em pouco mais de 20 anos de políticas implementadas (1972-1994): fortalecer o seu desenvolvimento socioeconômico; evitar a desindustrialização decorrente da doença holandesa; desenvolver empresas de petróleo locais (estatal e privadas); desenvolver a cadeia produtiva do setor de P&G ampla e competitiva internacionalmente, incluindo a formação de clusters relacionados ao setor; e, por fim, se tornar uma referência em inovação no setor de P&G. O ensaio também identificou quais foram as principais ações implementadas na Noruega para desenvolver este setor. A despeito de o desenvolvimento da indústria de P&G norueguesa ter sido marcado por fatores internos e externos favoráveis, alguns desafios relevantes tiveram de ser superados, como, por exemplo, sobrecustos, atrasos nas entregas e importantes empresas locais falirem. O terceiro ensaio identificou que a cadeia produtiva do setor de P&G no Brasil tem evoluído, as políticas industriais têm sido aperfeiçoadas, mas o seu desenvolvimento, além de apresentar alguns problemas semelhantes ao que a Noruega teve que superar no passado, carrega outras particularidades. Ao analisar as políticas industriais implementadas nos dois países para o desenvolvimento deste setor, identificou-se que, em alguma medida, a Noruega já está sendo utilizada como referência para o Brasil, mas ainda existem lições e contribuições a serem aprendidas deste caso de sucesso. Entretanto, as diferenças socioeconômicas, políticas e culturais, agravadas por uma atual conjuntura global e interna mais adversa, tornam o desafio do Brasil de desenvolver a cadeia produtiva do setor de P&G ampla e competitiva mais difícil do que foi para a Noruega. / The aim of this thesis is to analyse different forms of Industrial Policy (IP) in Norway and Brazil to develop the Oil and Gas (O&G) supply chain, identifying the lessons and contributions from the Norwegian experience. The evolutionist view of IP forms the theoretical basis of the analysis, which is structured in three parts. The first two essays are in English and the third in Portuguese. The first essay presents a theoretical review of IP, defining the concept and placing the theories within a historical perspective, in addition to discussing other relevant issues, such as: its relation to macroeconomic policies; its stability and predictability; policy coordination; horizontal and vertical policies; types of instruments; measurement of results; linking benefits to progress in competitiveness/targets; and, finally, its duration. The article also discusses the main approaches taken towards IP today (orthodox and evolutionary). Thus, we see how IP was historically implemented in industrial development processes and find that there is still room to continue implementing it, despite the creation of the World Trade Organization (WTO) and its consequences. The second essay analyses the successful development of the O&G supply chain in Norway, promoting structural changes in the economy. Norway stood out in the development of the O&G sector for having succeeded, in just over 20 years of policy implementation (1972-1994), in: enhancing its socio-economic development; avoiding de-industrialization due to the Dutch disease; developing local oil companies (state and private); developing a broad and internationally competitive O&G supply chain, including the formation of clusters related to the O&G sector, and, moreover setting a benchmark in innovation in the O&G sector. The essay also illustrates the main actions implemented in Norway to develop the O&G sector. Although the development of the Norwegian O&G industry was marked by internal and external favourable factors, some relevant challenges had to be overcome, including cost overruns, delays in deliveries and important local companies went bankrupt. The third essay finds that the O&G supply chain in Brazil has evolved, the industrial policies have been improved, but while its development also shows some problems similar to those that Norway had to overcome in the past, it also has other peculiarities. On analysing the industrial policies implemented in both countries to develop this sector, it emerges that to some extent, Norway is already being used as reference for Brazil, but there are still lessons and contributions to be learned from this successful case. However, due to socio-economic, political and cultural differences, compounded by today’s more adverse global and domestic environment, the challenge Brazil has to face in developing a broad and competitive O&G supply chain is tougher than it was for Norway.

Ungskogsgödsling i granskog - potentiell åtgärd för framtidens skogsbruk / Fertilization of young spruce - potential measure for future forestry

Sunesson, Johan, von Mecklenburg, Anders January 2018 (has links)
The demand of wood products will increase in the future when fossil-based fuel will be replaced by fossil free fuels. To meet the growing demand in the future, production increasing measurements must have to be done today. One of the most effective measurements, that increases production, is fertilization in young stands of spruce. Such measurements can give increased production of 8-12 m3sk/ha/year and reduce rotation periods by 40- 60 years in northern Sweden and 20- 40 years in southern Sweden. In this report, fertilization of young spruce stands has been studied when the operation has been implemented in a more practical scale. The aim was to compare if production differs when fertilization is implemented in a more practical scale than in previous studies of fertilization. The stands where located in Gullspång and Hällefors and this revision was made in the winter of 2018. The result of this revision showed an increased production of 102% in Gullspång and 210% in Hällefors in the fertilized stands compared to the unfertilized stands at the same locations. This indicate that fertilization of young spruce stands, when it is exercised in a bigger practical scale, is an effective measurement to increase production in Swedish forestry. / I framtiden förväntas efterfrågan och behovet av skogsråvara att öka. Vid en omställning från fossilbaserade bränslen till fossilfria kommer behovet av bioenergi av skogsråvara att öka, samtidigt förväntas exporten av massa och sågade råvaror att vara fortsatt stor. Det behövs satsas på produktionshöjande åtgärder i skogsbruket för att kunna tillgodose det ökande behovet av skogsråvara från skogsindustrin och samhället i framtiden. En av de effektivaste åtgärderna som går att göra är ungskogsgödsling av gran, vilket kan ge en merproduktion på 8–12 m3sk/ha och år och sänka omloppstider med 40–60 år i norra Sverige och 20–40 år i södra Sverige. I detta arbete har tillväxteffekten av ungskogsgödsling studerats när det utförts i operationell praktisk skala. Två bolagsförsök i SLU:s försöksprogram Fiberskog har studerats. Försöken är anlagda i Gullspång respektive Hällefors där målet var att studera möjligheten med att bedriva ungskogsgödsling av gran i större praktisk skala. Gödslingen startade vid 2–4 m höjd och gödslades vartannat år med individuellt anpassad giva fram till beståndet slutit sig. Tillväxten mättes med 6 års mellanrum med start 2003. Denna revision är utförd vintern 2018 (tre växtsäsonger efter senaste revision) och resultatet visar att tillväxteffekten av ungskogsgödsling kan ge en merproduktion på 102% och 210% på den totala volymen i Gullspång respektive Hällefors. Detta tyder på att ungskogsgödsling av gran är en effektiv åtgärd när det utförs i operationell praktisk skala och bör vara ett alternativ för det svenska skogsbruket i framtiden.

No. of bitstreams: 1 PabloGM_DISSERT.pdf: 5790432 bytes, checksum: cb76708cd8a3b4cea9208b8627bcd3ed (MD5) Previous issue date: 2013-09-24 / Coordena??o de Aperfei?oamento de Pessoal de N?vel Superior / The goal of our dissertation is to study how the Scandinavian writings produced a Norwegian identity of warlike ideals in a compilation of Icelandic sagas known as Heimskringla and has parts of its content focused on storytelling about a troubled time of Scandinavian monarchies rising between the 8th and 11th centuries, which is called the Viking Age. The Heimskringla, also known as The Circle of the World is a set of writings based on Icelandic oral memory about the Norwegian kings and the conception of a Norwegian territory. While we investigated the relationship between the members of royalty, their companions and the Scandinavian people, we delineate the relationship between memory, identity and war. Our study points out how the Scandinavian war produces, in its storytelling, proper spaces, in socio-political relations among the participants, in the organization of its conflicts or the location of war activities, where places are transformed into essential points in these narratives. The war is both a place of identity statements and a space of practices, necessary for the strengthening of royal power / O objetivo de nossa disserta??o ? estudar como os escritos escandinavos produziram uma identidade da Noruega em ideais b?licos dentro de uma compila??o de sagas islandesas chamada Heimskringla e que tem parte de seu conte?do voltado para narrativas de um momento conturbado do surgimento das monarquias escandinavas entre o s?culo VIII e XI, a chamada Era Viking. O Heimskringla, tamb?m conhecido como O C?rculo do Mundo , ? um conjunto de escritos baseados na mem?ria oral islandesa sobre os reis noruegueses e a forma??o do territ?rio noruegu?s. Na medida em que investigamos a rela??o entre os membros da realeza, seus companheiros e os povos escandinavos, passamos a delinear as rela??es de mem?ria, identidade e guerra. Nosso trabalho pontua a maneira como a guerra escandinava produz, em suas narrativas, espa?os pr?prios, seja nas rela??es pol?tico-sociais entre seus participantes, na organiza??o de seus conflitos ou na localiza??o das atividades guerreiras, sendo que os lugares transformam-se em pontos essenciais dessas narrativas. A guerra ? ao mesmo tempo um lugar de afirma??es identit?rias e um espa?o de pr?ticas necess?rias para o fortalecimento do poder real

”Dette kan være prisen for å være moralens vokter i alle sammenhenger” : En kvalitativ studie om rapporteringen kring Therese Johaugs dopingfall i svenska och norska medier / "This may be the price of being the moral guardians in all contexts" : A qualitative study about the reporting of Therese Johaug's doping case in Swedish and Norwegian media

Pettersson, Annie, Gropp, Ludvig January 2017 (has links)
The aim of this study is to examine in which way nationalistic influences plays a prominent part in the news coverage of larger media houses. This by studying how  two newspapers, Swedish Aftonbladet and Norwegian Verdens Gang, portrays and reports about Therese Johaug after she was tested positive for doping.   We performed a critical discourse analysis of a total of 20 web-based news articles. These articles were chosen from the date the news appeared and one week forward. This in order to see if the the two newspapers were characterized with nationalistic tendencies as well as comparing them to see what the differences and similarities might be.   By using theories such as national identitets, nationalism, ”us and them” and imagined communities we came to the conclusion that a nationalistic discourse is very much present. The subjects in the articles often become representatives of either Norway or Sweden - depending on the nationality. Johaug is mostly characterized as a national hero and sympathies are often shown from the norwegian news-articles. The opposite meaning were shown in the swedish news-articles. Described as an antagonist and a cheat - the complete opposite of a national hero. Imagined communities are also present as a nationalistic discourse. The people of Norway and Sweden are often involved - in order to justify this imagined community which occurs within the nation's borders.   The similarities and differences between the two newspapers are quite subtle - but present nonetheless. This with a nationalistic discourse which confirms both previous research and our theoretical framework.

"Anyone could do that" : Nordic perspectives on competence in tourism / "Det där klarar vem som helst" : Nordiska perspektiv på kompetens inom turism

Åberg, Kajsa G. January 2017 (has links)
In academic reasoning, as well as policy rhethoric, much attention has been drawn to the low thresholds to employment and entrepreneurship in tourism. The purpose of this thesis is to go beyond the simplified images and examine the educational characteristics of the tourism workforce in a way that includes both a geographical and work task related aspect. By employing a sequential mix of methods, two perspectives on competence in tourism are presented. First, the actual presence of formal education within the workforce is mapped and discussed based on descriptive analyses of register data. Thereafter, thematic analyses of interviews are used to allow for a discussion on underlying reasoning of recruitment. The theoretical point of departure is that the workforce is a crucial input factor of the production process in labour intense service sectors such as tourism. However, the access to a suitable workforce differs between destinations. It is therefore imperative to scrutinize its characteristics in order to set relevant strategies for development, as well as education. The thesis contains four individual papers and an introductory section. The first two papers are based on register data on the Swedish national workforce in the years 2000, 2005 and 2010. The results show that the general level of formal education is not exceptionally low in tourism and that it is rather linked to geography than occupational sector. There was also confirmed to be a mismatch between tourism-specific education and work in tourism. In the second part of the thesis, focus is turned to the managerial segment within destination development. The geographical scope includes the northern region of Sweden and one case study area each in Norway and Finland. The empirical material shows that tourism-specific education was not prioritized when recruiting for destination management. The empirical findings are brought together in the concluding discussion of the thesis. It is there suggested that reasoning on the educational characteristics of the tourism workforce needs to  include the diversity of local preconditions and needs relating to geography and work tasks.
