No. of bitstreams: 1 Thatira Postali Jacinto Pezato.pdf: 1000855 bytes, checksum: 4600871594a9cccf53fdf8b3add0bcc1 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2014-08-08 / Today it exists a wide range and a larger consumption of medicines and little of the risks of those medicines is known for the patient, because the collection of safe information is still a difficult factor. The risk of damages becomes smaller when these are prescribed, released and administered by professionals of the health informed and qualified to understand and to identify potential situations of risk and like this, prevention measures can be taken for the safety of the use of the medicines. This work had as purpose to characterize and to identify the notifications of adverse reactions, adverse events and/or deviations of quality of medicines accomplished in the chemotherapy units and internments of a private hospital, in the period of May to November of 2013. In a first phase, the adverse reactions, quality deviations and adverse events were classified to medicines that happened the months of May, June and July of 2013 following by a training with small applied groups for the responsible researcher. This training was proceeded by the application of a questionnaire with closed questions that sought to measure the degree of the professionals' knowledge, the recognition of the adverse reactions inside to medicines and the importance of the farmacovigilância of the hospital. In the second phase, they were classified the notifications of adverse reactions, adverse events and quality deviations that happened the months of September, October and November of 2013. An increase of 387,5% of the notifications was observed after the training. It was also verified that little understanding exists on farmacovigilância for the professionals of the health, what favored the subnotificação. Was ended that the training on farmacovigilância propitiated the professionals of the health was effective, it increased the number of notifications in the studied units. It is understood that the education enlarges the communicative processes, it establishes the communication and these professionals' collaboration / Hoje existe uma ampla gama e um maior consumo de medicamentos e sabe-se pouco dos riscos desses medicamentos para o paciente, pois a coleta de informações seguras ainda é um fator dificultoso. O risco de danos torna-se menor quando estes são prescritos, dispensados e administrados por profissionais da saúde informados e capacitados para compreender e identificar situações potenciais de risco e assim, medidas de prevenção possam ser tomadas para a segurança do uso dos medicamentos. Este trabalho teve como finalidade caracterizar e identificar as notificações de reações adversas, eventos adversos e/ou desvios de qualidade de medicamentos realizada nas unidades de quimioterapia e internações de um hospital privado, no período de maio a novembro de 2013. Em uma primeira fase, foram catalogadas as reações adversas, desvios de qualidade e eventos adversos a medicamentos que aconteceram nos meses de maio, junho e julho de 2013 seguido de um treinamento com pequenos grupos aplicados pelo pesquisador responsável. Este treinamento foi procedido pela aplicação de um questionário com perguntas fechadas que visaram medir o grau de conhecimento dos profissionais, o reconhecimento das reações adversas a medicamentos e a importância da farmacovigilância dentro do hospital. Na segunda fase, foram catalogadas as notificações de reações adversas, eventos adversos e desvios de qualidade que aconteceram nos meses de setembro, outubro e novembro de 2013. Observou-se um aumento de 387,5% das notificações após o treinamento. Também se verificou que existe pouco entendimento sobre farmacovigilância pelos profissionais da saúde, o que favoreceu a subnotificação. Conclui-se que o treinamento sobre farmacovigilância propiciado aos profissionais da saúde foi efetivo, aumentou o número de notificações nas unidades estudadas. Compreende-se que a educação permanente amplia os processos comunicativos, estabelece a comunicação e a colaboração destes profissionais

From fault dynamics to seismic hazard assessment

Michel, Sylvain January 2018 (has links)
My work focused on the development of improved methodologies for the evaluation of seismic hazard and its related uncertainties, based on the study of active faults systems and dynamic modelling of the seismic cycle. I worked in particular on the probabilistic estimate of a fault's maximum magnitude earthquake and of its return period. Those parameters are indeed crucial to estimate seismic hazard. Seismicity can be viewed as a stochastic process which is constrained by the principle of moment conservation: seismic ruptures must in principle rupture fault portions which had accumulated a deficit of slip, in view of their long term slip rate, during the interseismic period. In Chapter 1, I explain how we implemented those constraints in the evaluation of the probability distribution describing the magnitude and return period of the largest earthquake, propagating the geodetic uncertainties up to the hazard calculation. We applied this methodology to the Parkfield Segment of the San Andreas Fault, where the seismic cycle is particularly well documented. Our study implies potential maximum magnitude between 6.5 and 7.5, with a return period of 140 to 300 years. In Chapter 2, we applied the same methodology to the Cascadia subduction zone, known to have produced a M~9 earthquake in 1700 but where the seismic hazard remains poorly constrained. As part of this study we determined a model of interseismic coupling and of fault slip due to Slow Slip Events using an Independent Component Analysis-based inversion method. Finally, in Chapter 3, I use dynamic modelling to tackle the problem of partial ruptures. Large earthquakes tend to be confined to fault areas locked in the interseismic period but they often rupture them only partially. For example, during the 2015 M7.8 Gorkha earthquake, Nepal, a slip pulse propagating along-strike unzipped the bottom edge of the locked portion of the Main Himalayan Thrust. The lower edge of the rupture produced dominant high-frequency (>1 Hz) radiation of seismic waves. We showed that similar partial ruptures occur spontaneously in a simple dynamic model of earthquake sequences on a planar fault without mechanical, frictional and geometrical heterogeneities.

The Interplay of Mindfulness and Effortful Control with the Emotional Dynamics of Everyday Life

January 2018 (has links)
abstract: Research on self-regulatory variables like mindfulness and effortful control proposes strong links with physical and mental health outcomes across the lifespan, from childhood and adolescence to adulthood and old age. One pathway by which self-regulation may confer health benefits is through individual differences in reports of and emotional responses to daily negative and positive events. Mindfulness is broadly defined as non-reactivity to inner experiences, while effortful control is broadly defined as attentional and behavioral regulation. Mindfulness and effortful control have both been conceptualized to exert their beneficial effects on development through their influence on exposure/engagement and emotional reactivity/responsiveness to both negative and positive events, yet few empirical studies have tested this claim using daily-diary designs, a research methodology that permits for examining this process. With a sample of community-dwelling adults (n=191), this thesis examined whether dispositional mindfulness (i.e., non-reactivity of inner experience) and effortful control (i.e., attention and behavioral regulation) modulate reports of and affective reactivity/responsiveness to daily negative and positive events across 30 days. Results showed that mindfulness and effortful control were each associated with reduced exposure to daily stressors but not positive events. They also showed that mindfulness and effortful control, respectively, predicted smaller decreases in negative affect and smaller increases in positive affect on days that positive events occurred. Overall, these findings offer insight into how these self-regulatory factors operate in the context of middle-aged adults’ everyday life. / Dissertation/Thesis / Masters Thesis Psychology 2018

Atratividade turística em estádios de futebol: visitação no estádio Arena Corinthians / Tourist attraction in soccer stadiums: visitation in Arena Corinthians stadium

Fillipe Soares Romano 15 October 2018 (has links)
Com o anuncio da construção do estádio Arena Corinthians no bairro de Itaquera em São Paulo indagou-se sobre os possíveis legados e impactos para a população como contrapartida de sediar megaeventos esportivos. A presente pesquisa surgiu do questionamento: como as transformações exigidas pelos megaeventos esportivos Copa do Mundo FIFA de 2014 e Olimpíada 2016 podem influenciar as formas de uso e apropriação do estádio Arena Corinthians como parte do turismo e lazer na cidade de São Paulo? O objetivo geral foi analisar a importância das atividades turísticas na Arena Corinthians e os objetivos específicos se concentraram em: analisar as atividades que usufruam do equipamento turístico; examinar a percepção dos atores sociais do entorno sob perspectiva do legado e/ou atrativo para a região de Itaquera e da zona leste do município; identificar e refletir sobre possibilidades e potencialidades do uso do espaço. Para responder os questionamentos anteriores utilizou-se do método qualitativo de caráter descritivo e exploratório, dividido em três momentos: análise bibliográfica, análise documental e pesquisa de campo, compreendidas pela técnica de observação participante, entrevistas temáticas aos gestores da Arena Corinthians e da São Paulo Turismo (SpTuris), aplicação de questionários a cem visitantes dos eventos Tour Casa do Povo, Timão RUN, Monster Jam e Treino Aberto, e cinco moradores visitantes da Virada Cultural. Como resultados observou-se que os visitantes desconhecem o roteiro turístico da zona leste de São Paulo, parte deles estiveram no estádio pela primeira vez, nesse sentido, ressai a importância da captação de público por meio de eventos multiculturais e diversificados que não relacionados ao Sport Club Corinthians Paulista (SCCP). Os visitantes compreendem a Arena Corinthians como legado e atrativo turístico para a cidade. A percepção dos moradores corrobora sob percepção da atratividade turística, mas, diverge especialmente na questão do legado, justificado pela expectativa gerada e não cumprida no desenvolvimento do entorno. Apontam-se recomendações para ações que abranjam o público do entorno na perspectiva de apropriação, pertencimento e uso do estádio, além de aproximação ao trade turístico para alcançar a meta de ser o principal atrativo turístico na cidade de São Paulo / With the announcement of the construction the Arena Corinthians stadium in the district of Itaquera in São Paulo, inquired about the possible legacies and impacts for the population as a counterpart to hosting the sports megaevents. The present research emerged from the questioning: how the transformations demanded by the mega-sports events 2014 FIFA World Cup and 2016 Summer Olympics can influence the forms of use and appropriation of Arena Corinthians as a segment of tourism and leisure at the city of São Paulo? The overall aim was to analyze the importance of tourism activities at the stadium and, the specific objectives were focused on: to explore the activities that make use of the facilities; examine perception of the social actors of the environment under the perspective of the legacy and/or attraction for the region of Itaquera and the east zone of São Paulo; identify and reflect on the possibilities and potentialities of the use of space. In order to answer the previous questions, a choice of use of the qualitative method of descriptive and exploratory character was made, splited into three distinct moments: bibliographic and documentary analysis and field research, comprised by the participant observation technique, thematic interview, and made by the use of questionnaires to Arena Corinthians and São Paulo Turismo (SpTuris) managers, one hundred visitors from the Casa do Povo Tour, Timão RUN, Monster Jam and Football Open Training, and five visitors from Virada Cultural. As a result of the research, noticed that visitors were unaware of the tourist route at the east zone of São Paulo, some of them were at the stadium for the first time, in this sense, it stands out the importance of attracting the public through multicultural and diversified events that are not related to Sport Club Corinthians Paulista (SCCP). Visitors understand the Arena Corinthians as a legacy and tourist attraction for the city. The perception of the residents corroborates under perception of the tourist attractiveness, nonetheless, they differ especially in the matter of legacy, justified by the generated expectation and not fulfilled in the development of the surroundings. It also pointed out some recommendations for actions in order to cover the surrounding public in the perspective of appropriation, belonging and use of the stadium, as well as approaching the tourist trade to achieve the goals of being the main tourist attraction in the city of São Paulo

Morfodinâmica e eventos de sobrelavagem: praias da baía de Santos, SP / Morphodynamics and overwash process: Santos bay beaches, SP

Luiza Paschoal Stein 04 April 2018 (has links)
As praias urbanizadas são ambientes complexos devido à interação da ocupação antropogênica e dos processos costeiros. A ocupação costeira vem se caracterizando por alteração e deterioração da paisagem, processo mais intenso em grandes cidades litorâneas, onde casas e edifícios são construídos nas proximidades imediatas da orla. O presente trabalho analisa a morfodinâmica e processo de sobrelavagem das praias de Santos e Itararé, duas praias urbanizadas com a presença de obras na orla. Foram realizados levantamentos topográficos nas praias e modelagem de ondas (Delft 3D - Wave) para toda a baía durante os anos de 2015 e 2016. Cenários de sobrelevaçãoonda e nível do mar foram estipulando para o cálculo da sobrelevaçãototal e assim conhecer as condições que levam a sobrelavagem. A baía de Santos encontra-se aberta para sul, expondo a linha de costa para a ação de frentes frias. A variabilidade do clima de ondas, derivada das mudanças das suas condições meteorológicas formadoras, pode alterar a morfologia da praia. Em Santos e São Vicente as ondas de sul e sudeste apresentam maiores alturas de onda e são mais frequentes no outono e inverno quando temos mais frentes frias na região. Os resultados indicam relação entre a incidência de ondas com maior força de onda (W/m), associadas a frentes frias, em trechos mais inclinados das praias com perda de volume. A variedade de incidência das ondas ao longo da praia estudada mostra um decréscimo na força de onda, sendo maior em Itararé e caindo em direção a Ponta da Praia, com a presença de picos altos na Ponta da Praia. Justificando porque este trecho sofre mais variação de volume e perda de sedimento fato que pode estar associado a dragagem do canal do porto de Santos. Em ambos os trechos com maior declividade e menor faixa de areia apresentaram maior sensibilidade à ação das ondas e também maior chance de sofrer sobrelavagem, de todo o arco praial da baía de Santos a porção leste de Santos se mostrou a mais propícia a sofrer inundação. / Urbanized beaches are more complex environments due to the interaction of anthropogenic occupation and coastal processes. Coastal occupation has been characterized by alteration and deterioration of the landscape, being more intense in large coastal cities, where houses and buildings are built in the immediate vicinity of the beach border being subject to potentially high risk of erosion. The present work analyzed the morphodynamics and overwashing of the beaches of Santos and Itararé, two urbanized beaches with the presence of anthropogenic constructions in the beach border. Topographic surveys on both beaches and wave modeling (Delft 3D - Wave) were carried out for the entire basin during the years of 2015 and 2016. Wave run-up and sea level scenarios were stipulated for the calculation of the total water level and so determined conditions that lead to overwashing. The bay of Santos is open to the South, exposing the coast line for the action of cold fronts. The variability of the wave climate, derived from the changes of its formative meteorological conditions, can alter the morphology of the beach. In Santos and São Vicente, South and Southeast waves have higher wave height and are more frequent in autumn and winter when we have more cold fronts in the region. The results indicate the direct relationship between the incidence of waves with higher wave force (W/m), associated with cold fronts, with loss of volume along the beaches. The variety of wave incidence along the studied beach shows a decrease in wave force, being higher in Itararé and falling towards Ponta da Praia, in the area protected by the rocky promontory. However in Ponta da Praia we see high values of wave force, justifying why this stretch suffers more volume variation and loss of sediment, that we belive happends because of Port Channel. In both stretches with greater slope and lower sand range showed greater sensitivity to the action of the waves and also greater chance of overwash, of all the praial arc of the Santos bay, the Eastern portion of Santos was the most propitious to suffer flooding.

Positive Psychological and Religious Characteristics as Moderators of Negative Life Events and Depressive Symptoms: A Multiethnic Comparison.

Visser, Preston Lee 19 December 2009 (has links)
Hope, optimism, and several markers of religiosity and spirituality were examined as potential moderators of the association between negative life events and depressive symptoms in a secondary data analysis of an ethnically diverse sample. Participants (267 female, 119 male) were college students enrolled at an urban Northeastern university. It was hypothesized that negative life events would be associated with increased depressive symptoms and that higher levels of hope, optimism, and religious and spiritual variables would attenuate this relationship. Ethnically-stratified moderation analyses were conducted to assess for differences in moderation between Blacks, Hispanics, Whites, and Asians. Hypotheses were generally supported, with some ethnic variation in findings. Although hope and optimism predicted decreased depressive symptoms in Blacks, Hispanics, and Whites, optimism was a significant moderator in Whites only. Measures of religiosity were significant moderators among Blacks as well as Whites. Clinical and research implications are explored based on the extant literature.

Traumatic Life Events and Symptoms of Anxiety: Moderating Effects of Adaptive Versus Maladaptive Coping Strategies

Foster, Alishia 01 May 2014 (has links)
The experience of trauma is prevalent among young adult college students and is often associated with poor mental health outcomes such as symptoms of anxiety. Not all individuals who have experienced trauma, however, develop anxiety, perhaps due to individual-level adaptive characteristics, such as use of adaptive rather than maladaptive coping strategies. Yet, little research has examined the interrelationships between the experience of trauma, specific types of coping strategies, and subclinical anxiety symptoms. A sample of 915 undergraduate students completed self-report measures of trauma, coping strategies, and anxiety symptoms. We hypothesized that traumatic life events would be associated with anxiety symptoms, and that this relation would be moderated by adaptive and maladaptive coping, such that adaptive coping will weaken, whereas maladaptive coping will exacerbate, the trauma-anxiety relationship. Results demonstrated maladaptive coping, but not adaptive coping, was a moderator of the association between the experience of trauma and symptoms of anxiety.

The Relationship between Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and Intrinsic Religiosity in Southern Appalachia

Unzueta, Celina V, Ms., Clements, Andrea, Dr. 01 May 2017 (has links)
The present exploratory study examined adverse childhood experiences and religiosity in a sample of individuals from Southern Appalachia. Self-reports of childhood adversity and intrinsic religion were obtained from 167 individuals. Results showed that fifty-five percent had not experienced a childhood adversity while forty-three percent had experienced one to five episodes. Although a little under half the sample had one or more adverse experiences, there was no significant relationship between ACEs and intrinsic religion (r= -.037, p= .631). Sex and intrinsic religion were significantly related in that men endorsed the use of intrinsic religiosity more than women (t(165)= -2.28, p= .005).
