ABSTRACT
O presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar e desenvolver uma nova tecnologia para agricultura familiar, que integre a olericultura com a criação de pintados em tanques elevados de geomembrana com recirculação de água. Para tanto, foram distribuídos aleatoriamente 240 peixes com peso médio de 10,67g em um tanque de geomembrana com capacidade de 30 m3 de água. A qualidade da água foi monitorada analisando as variáveis temperatura da água por meio de um termômetro, oxigênio dissolvido, pH, alcalinidade, nitrito e amônia por meio de kits colorimétricos. O arraçoamento foi realizado duas vezes ao dia às 07h00min e 19h00min com ração extrusada contendo 32% de proteína bruta, durante um período de 204 dias. Mensalmente foram realizadas biometrias para corrigir o arraçoamento, analisar o peso total médio, comprimento total médio, ganho de peso e conversão alimentar. A qualidade da água durante o período experimental não apresentou níveis críticos para a produção dos peixes e no final dos 204 dias de criação os peixes apresentaram peso final médio de 719,4g, comprimento final médio de 48,5cm, ganho de peso final médio de 708,5g e conversão alimentar média de 1,59. Quanto à produtividade das olerícolas, constatou-se que a água do efluente do sistema de criação forneceu quantidades adequadas de nutrientes necessários ao desenvolvimento das plantas. Os resultados indicam que o pintado tem potencial para ser criado em tanques elevados de geomembrana com sistema de recirculação de água e o efluente do sistema pode ser utilizado como uma alternativa para a produção integrada de peixes e olerícolas.(AU)
The present study aimed to evaluate and develop a new technology for family farming, which integrates vegetable farming with the creation of guinea fowl in elevated geomembrane tanks with water recirculation. To this end, 240 fish with an average weight of 10.67g were randomly distributed in a geomembrane tank with a capacity of 30 m3 of water. Water quality was monitored by analyzing the variables water temperature using a thermometer, dissolved oxygen, pH, alkalinity, nitrite and ammonia using colorimetric kits. Feeding was carried out twice a day at 7:00 am and 7:00 pm with extruded feed containing 32% crude protein, over a period of 204 days. Biometrics were carried out monthly to correct the diet, analyze the average total weight, average total length, weight gain and feed conversion. The water quality during the experimental period did not present critical levels for fish production and at the end of the 204 days of creation the fish had an average final weight of 719.4g, average final length of 48.5cm, average final weight gain of 708.5g and average feed conversion of 1.59. Regarding the productivity of the olerícolas, it was found that the effluent water of the rearing system provided adequate amounts of nutrients necessary for the development of the plants. The results indicate that the pintado has the potential to be created in elevated geomembrane tanks with water recirculation system and the effluent of the system can be used as an alternative for the integrated production of fish and olerícolas.(AU)

Se estima que aproximadamente siete millones de personas mueren anualmente por la contaminación del aire ambiental y doméstico, debido a enfermedades no transmisibles, especialmente en zonas con servicios públicos precarios; además la infraestructura y condiciones de las viviendas o hacinamiento se han asociado a la aparición de enfermedades agudas y crónicas. En Ecuador, para el año 2010, se reportó más de 2,5 millones de personas en zonas de asentamientos irregulares con deficientes saneamiento ambiental. Se realizó un estudio experimental con la participación de 85 jefes de familia en las comunidades de La Unión, Nuestra señora de Lourdes, las Acacias y Brisa del mar, de la parroquia rural Posorja, del cantón Guayaquil, Ecuador, para evaluar el desarrollo de habilidades de saneamiento ambiental. Para ello, se identificaron los problemas y las prioridades en salud ambiental, posteriormente se implementó el plan de desarrollo de habilidades en salud ambiental. Se observó deficiencias en cuanto a la construcción de viviendas, acceso al agua potable, disposición de excretas y desechos sólidos. Además, posterior a las jornadas de capacitación hubo un incremento en las habilidades cognoscitivas y prácticas en salud ambiental, al comparar con las competencias previas, especialmente en aspectos relacionados con el abastecimiento de agua potable, disposición de residuos sólidos y control de fauna nociva. Se logró fortalecer el desarrollo de habilidades en saneamiento ambiental de los habitantes, lo que incide en el mejoramiento de la salud pública y calidad de vida de las comunidades en estudio(AU)
It is estimated that approximately seven million people die annually from environmental and domestic air pollution, due to non-communicable diseases, especially in areas with precarious public services; In addition, the infrastructure and conditions of the houses or overcrowding have been associated with the appearance of acute and chronic diseases. In Ecuador, for the year 2010, more than 2.5 million people were reported in areas of irregular settlements with deficient environmental sanitation. An experimental study was carried out with the participation of 85 heads of families in the communities of La Unión, Nuestra Señora de Lourdes, Las Acacias and Brisa del Mar, from the Posorja rural parish, from the Guayaquil canton, Ecuador, to evaluate the development of skills of environmental sanitation. In order to, environmental health problems and priorities were identified, and the environmental health skills development plan was subsequently implemented. Deficiencies were observed in terms of housing construction, access to drinking water, disposal of excreta and solid waste. In addition, after the training sessions, there was an increase in cognitive skills and practices in environmental health, when compared to previous skills, especially in aspects related to drinking water supply, solid waste disposal, and control of harmful fauna. It was possible to strengthen the development of skills in environmental sanitation of the inhabitants, which affects the improvement of public health and quality of life of the communities under study(AU)

RESUMEN Con el objetivo de entender las dinámicas en las que se piensa e interviene el territorio para llevar a la población al desplazamiento y despojo vía armada o administrativa se efectuaron 87 entrevistas a líderes sociales entre 2019-2021 que permitieron realizar un análisis histórico de procesos asociados a la ocupación de tierras en el departamento del Meta, bajo la relación Monstruo-Monstruosidad asociada a la tecnología desde los métodos mecánicos del Estado y/o los métodos bioinformáticos del mercado". Los resultados exponen un territorio que inicia desde el cuerpo, como un espacio biopolítico y bioeconómico de confrontación. Lo anterior es analizado a través de las metáforas del vaquero-romántico, la devoradora-de-Hombres, la tierra-del-futuro y el vaquero-post-orgánico, exponiendo un pensamiento nómada con un espíritu de resistencia intelectual y de emancipación histórica. Se concluye que el carácter semiológico de la vida cotidiana con la tecnología permite el empoderamiento, la visibilización y la reconfiguración político-económica del territorio.
ABSTRACT In order to understand the dynamics in which the territory is thought of and interfered with, to lead to the displacement and dispossession of the population by armed or administrative means, 87 interviews with social leaders between 2019-2021 were carried out to allow for a historical analysis of processes associated with the occupation of lands in the department of Meta, under the Monster-Monstrosity relationship associated with technology from the mechanical methods of the State and / or the bioinformatics methods of the market. The results expose a territory that begins in the body, as a biopolitical and bioeconomic space of confrontation. The above is analyzed through the metaphors of the romantic cowboy, the man-eater, the land-of-the-future, and the post-organic cowboy, exposing a nomadic thought with a spirit of intellectual resistance and historical emancipation. It is concluded that the semiological character of daily life with technology allows for the empowerment, the visibility, and the political-economic reconfiguration of the territory

ABSTRACT: Traditional Villages (TVs) are typical and representative of the agricultural civilization in millions of Chinese villages. The distribution of TVs shows spatial heterogeneity, based on the complexity and diversity of several influencing factors. In this study, 6,819 Chinese TVs were identified and the influencing factors that affect their distribution were screened in terms of three indicator groups: climatic, geographic, and humanity-related factors. Additionally, the K-means clustering algorithm clustered the TVs into different distribution regions. The quantitative relationships between the dominant influencing factors of different distribution regions were revealed to ensure a lucid understanding of the regional distribution of TVs. The results indicated that 1) climatic factors have the greatest impact on the spatial distribution of TVs, followed by geographic factors, particularly the elevation, and then by human factors, of which ethnic distribution played a relatively important role. 2) Twenty-one TV clustering distributions were obtained, which were classified into eight regions of TV distribution with different dominant influencing factors. Management and protective strategies were formulated based on the attribute analysis of influencing factors in each region. The obtained results delineated homogeneous TV distribution regions via the clustering method to achieve an accurate statistical analysis of the influencing factors. This study proposes a new perspective and reference for managing and protecting the diversity, continuity, and integrity of TVs across administrative regions.
RESUMO: As aldeias tradicionais (TVs) são típicas e representativas da civilização agrícola em milhões de comunidades chinesas. A distribuição das TVs mostra heterogeneidade espacial, baseada na complexidade e diversidade de diversos fatores influenciadores. Neste estudo, 6.819 TVs chinesas foram identificadas e os fatores que influenciam sua distribuição foram analisados em termos de três grupos de indicadores: fatores climáticos, geográficos e relacionados à humanidade. Além disso, o algoritmo de agrupamento K-means agrupou as TVs em diferentes regiões de distribuição. As relações quantitativas entre os fatores de influência dominantes de diferentes regiões de distribuição foram reveladas para garantir uma compreensão lúcida da distribuição regional de TVs. Os resultados indicam que 1) os fatores climáticos têm maior impacto na distribuição espacial das TVs, seguidos dos geográficos, em particular da elevação, e depois dos humanos, nos quais a distribuição étnica teve um papel relativamente importante; 2) foram obtidas as vinte e uma distribuições de agrupamento de TV, as quais foram classificadas em oito regiões de distribuição de TV com diferentes fatores de influência dominante. Estratégias de manejo e proteção foram formuladas com base na análise de atributos dos fatores influenciadores de cada região. Os resultados obtidos delinearam regiões homogêneas de distribuição de TV por meio do método de agrupamento para obter uma análise estatística precisa dos fatores de influência. Este estudo propõe uma nova perspectiva e referência para a gestão e proteção da diversidade, continuidade e integridade das TVs nas regiões administrativas.
ABSTRACT
RESUMEN Objetivo: Determinar la percepción de los médicos que realizan el Servicio Rural y Urbano Marginal de Salud (SERUMS) en Perú sobre el trabajo en el primer nivel de atención (PNA) y sus factores asociados. Materiales y métodos: Se realizó un análisis secundario de datos de una muestra de médicos que realizaron el SERUMS el 2016. Para evaluar la variable de interés se utilizó la escala de «Percepción sobre el trabajo en el PNA¼, cuyos puntajes más altos indican una peor percepción del trabajo en el PNA. Se aplicó una encuesta basal (antes del SERUMS) y una encuesta de seguimiento (8-12 meses de iniciado el SERUMS) y se evaluaron las diferencias en los puntajes. Resultados: De los 780 encuestados, 215 (27,6%) completaron la encuesta basal y de seguimiento. La media del puntaje incrementó considerablemente (de 3,4 a 6,7; p < 0,001), lo que indica una peor percepción del trabajo en el PNA tras iniciar el SERUMS. De los tres dominios de la encuesta, el de las percepciones sobre el médico que trabaja en el PNA y el de las percepciones sobre el trabajo asistencial en el PNA incrementaron los puntajes de percepción sobre el trabajo en el PNA. No se encontraron variables sociodemográficas asociadas al cambio en los puntajes. Conclusiones: La percepción de los médicos sobre el trabajo en el PNA se deteriora luego de iniciar el SERUMS. Se deben promover estrategias que incentiven el interés de los médicos en este nivel de atención.
ABSTRACT Objective: To determine the effect of the Rural and Marginal Urban Health Service (SERUMS) on the physicians' perception of work in the primary health care (PHC) setting and its associated factors. Materials and methods: A secondary data analysis of a sample of physicians who performed the SERUMS in 2016 was carried out. To evaluate the variable of interest, the scale "Perception of work in the PHC setting" was used, higher scores indicated a negative perception of work in the PHC setting. A baseline survey (before the SERUMS) and a follow-up survey (8-12 months after starting the SERUMS) were applied and differences in both scores were evaluated. Results: Of the 780 respondents, 215 (27.6%) completed the baseline and follow-up survey. The average score increased considerably (from 3.4 to 6.7; p < 0.001), which shows a negative perception of work in the PHC setting after participating in the SERUMS. Of the three parts of the survey, the one regarding perceptions by the physicians working in the PHC and the one about perceptions of medical work in the PHC setting increased the perception scores. No sociodemographic variables were found to be associated with the change in scores. Conclusions: Physicians' perception about work in the PHC setting deteriorated after participating in the SERUMS. Therefore, strategies to encourage physicians' interest in working at this level of healthcare should be promoted.

INTRODUCTION research studies the impact of the social isolation measures on the living conditions of the popular neighborhoods of the Buenos Aires suburbs, the family and community strategies and the state intervention in this context. METHODS it is based on two successive collaborative surveys carried out by the National University of General Sarmiento, that collected 80 and 129 short interviews with territorial and health leaders in the first and third phase of isolation, respectively. RESULTS quarantine compliance was medium and high. The problems ranked by the referents were: i) the discontinuity of household income from work; ii) the difficulty of access to basic food; iii) gender violence inside homes; and iv) restrictions on access to health services. DISCUSSION the important presence of the state through the transfer of monetary income and direct food assistance is highlighted, as well as the central role of the network of social organizations that is activated in the crisis. The quality and scope of assistance are heterogeneous between and within municipalities, depending not only on their volume but also on the articulation between different levels of management and particularly between these and social organizations
INTRODUCCIÓN el objetivo del estudio fue conocer el impacto de las medidas de aislamiento social obligatorio sobre las condiciones de vida de los barrios populares del conurbano bonaerense, así como la intervención estatal y las estrategias familiares y comunitarias que se despliegan en ese contexto. MÉTODOS se basa en dos relevamientos colaborativos sucesivos realizados por la Universidad Nacional de General Sarmiento, en los que se reunieron 80 y 129 entrevistas cortas a referentes territoriales y sanitarios, en la primera y tercera fases del aislamiento, respectivamente. RESULTADOS se registró un acatamiento medio y alto a las medidas, y se identificaron los factores que dificultan su cumplimiento total. Las problemáticas jerarquizadas por las y los referentes fueron: i) la discontinuidad de ingresos laborales de los hogares, ii) la dificultad de acceso a la alimentación básica, iii) la violencia de género al interior de los hogares, y iv) las restricciones en el acceso a los servicios de salud. DISCUSIÓN se destacan tanto la presencia del Estado, mediante la transferencia de ingresos monetarios y de asistencia alimentaria directa, como el papel central del entramado de organizaciones sociales que se activa en la crisis. La calidad y el alcance de la asistencia son heterogéneas entre los municipios y al interior de estos, y dependen no sólo de su volumen, sino también de la articulación entre distintos niveles de gestión y, sobre todo, entre estos y las organizaciones sociales.
ABSTRACT
More than half of the world population lives in the cities and around one billion in poor urban areas.These numbers are projected to increase,while Sub-Saharan Africa is the region with the highest rate of informal settlements due his rapid urbanization.The urban informal settlements of Sub-Saharan Africa house everyday health risks.These risks have considerable cumulative impacts on the wellbeing and health of the urban vulnerable group.Despite the public health consequences of urbanization and the increase of informal settlements number in African cities,there is a paucity in data about the risks at small scale and the vulnerability in poor urban areas.Through the database search engine of MEDLINE,WHO Library and Information Networks for Knowledge and website of Urban Africa Risk Knowledge;from information of the existing literature,this paper tried to analyse the everyday health risks,and vulnerabilities in urban informal settlement in Sub-Saharan Africa region.A search combining keywords associated with health risks and informal settlement in Sub-Saharan Africa were used to identify the relevant documents,and this search yielded 86 articles,of which 15 met the criteria for inclusion in the analysis.The risks of communicable diseases due to inadequate sanitation have been the most frequent subjects of study.Informal settlers in Sub-Saharan Africa face everyday health risks arising from lack of clean water,adequate sanitation,and life in overcrowding houses.Consequently,there is a burden of communicable and non-communicable diseases,undernourishment and injuries.The most vulnerable group is children under five with a high rate of mortality.Everyday health risks in urban informal settlements must be taken into account for a better understanding of the full spectrum of urban risks.This is essential in the establishment of efficient public health policies and intervention in urban areas.
ABSTRACT
Aim: To determine the food safety risks of consumption of street-vended poultry products, to evaluate the determinants of microbial safety and the risk rank of these products. Study Design: A cross-sectional survey was done in the Korogocho and Kariobangi North slums among the consumers and vendors to assess their food safety knowledge and practices. Swab samples of the cooking equipment, utensils, and personnel, raw and cooked portions of poultry were collected for microbial quality evaluation. The most prevalent microorganism was assessed for its qualitative risk rank using the Risk Ranger software. Place and Duration of Study: The study was carried out in the capital city of Kenya, Nairobi, from June 2018 to July 2018. Methodology: A total of 15 vendors were exhaustively sampled and included in the study with the food safety and hygiene practices evaluated using a food safety checklist. The snowballing sampling technique was used to locate all the vendors. Samples of raw and cooked street vended poultry products were subjected to microbial analysis. All samples were collected in sterile polythene bags followed by transportation to the laboratory of the Department of Food Science and Technology of the University of Nairobi and microbial analysis. Results: Campylobacter jejuni contamination, in both raw and cooked poultry products, was 8.95±0.94 log10 CFU g-1 and 4.66±2.67 log10 CFU g-1 respectively; the probability of contamination of raw street-vended poultry was found to be 48.96%. The mean weekly intake of the poultry was reported 140.0 g per person. The probability of campylobacter infection in an individual consumer was found as 7.12x10-3 with the predicted illnesses among the population found as 1.11x106 cases. The qualitative risk estimate from the study was reported as 67, above the limit of 48 for medium risk. Conclusion: The study concluded that Campylobacter jejuni posed high food safety risks as a resultant from the consumption of street-vended poultry.
ABSTRACT
RESUMEN El entrelazamiento de las convicciones ideológicas de la juventud del Partido Socialista de los Trabajadores (PST) en México y la experiencia victoriosa del reparto agrario con la fundación de los Nuevos Centros de Población Ejidal (NCPE), en el municipio de Abasolo, Tamaulipas, México, de los campesinos agrupados en Comités Ejecutivos Particulares Agrarios (CPEA), dieron lugar a la primera alternancia municipal de la historia contemporánea de Tamaulipas. El ayuntamiento fue reconocido constitucionalmente en 1983, siendo la única victoria electoral del PST en el estado. El objetivo de este trabajo fue documentar los antecedentes sobre la historia política y social del Partido Socialista de los Trabajadores (PST) de 1980 a 1983. El procedimiento de esta investigación fue histórica, con base en la triangulación de fuentes primarias y secundarias, siguiendo la premisa de que la política es la continuación de la guerra por otros medios. La historia del rompimiento de la hegemonía del Partido Revolucionario Institucional (PRI), en Abasolo, fue recreada con archivos históricos y entrevistas orales de diferentes actores sociales de la época. El PST alcanzó el reconocimiento constitucional del ayuntamiento en 1983 por 21 días, por lo que se dio una alternancia municipal atípica. Esta alternancia, resultó ser atípica no sólo por el hecho de que un partido distinto y de reciente creación ganara las elecciones, sino por las condiciones en las que se eligió el candidato y se dio el proceso electoral municipal, así como el modo en que el presidente municipal concluyó el periodo constitucional. Dichos sucesos posibilitaron la lucha político-electoral entre el PST y el Partido Revolucionario Institucional (PRI) en ese municipio.
ABSTRACT The interlacing between the ideological convictions of the Socialist Workers Party (SWP) youth in Mexico, the victory of land distribution among the New Ejido Population Settlements (Nuevos Centros de Población Ejidal, NCPE), and the organization of farmers in Particular Executive Committees of Agriculture (Comités Ejecutivos Particulares Agrarios, CEPA), resulted in the first political alternation contemporary history of Tamaulipas, which took place in Abasolo municipality. The city council was constitutionally recognized in 1983, being the only electoral victory of the SWP in the state. The objective of this paper is to record the background of the political and social history of the SWP from 1980 to 1983. This was a historical research based on the triangulation of primary and secondary sources, following the assumption that politics is the prolongation of the war by other means. The history of the hegemony of the Institutional Revolutionary Party's (Partido Revolucionario Institucional, PRI) breakdown in Abasaolo was recreated through historical archives and oral interviews with different social actors of the time. The SWP achieved constitutional recognition from the city council in 1983 during 21 days, representing an atypical political alternation in the municipality. This alternation was atypical not only because a different party was elected, but also due to the conditions in which the electing process was conducted, how the elected candidate was chosen, and the manner in which the city mayor concluded the constitutional period. These events made the political struggle between the SWP and the PRI possible in this municipality.
ABSTRACT
RESUMO Este artigo versa sobre a análise da compressibilidade dos resíduos sólidos urbanos (RSUs) do antigo vazadouro da Marambaia, localizado no município de Nova Iguaçu, Rio de Janeiro, que operou como um lixão durante o período de 1987 a 2003, quando foi encerrado e remediado. O estudo foi levado a cabo por meio de dados de monitoramento de recalque superficial, obtidos por meio de marcos superficiais de 2008 a 2015. As medidas de recalques foram analisadas à luz dos seguintes modelos de compressibilidade: Sowers, Meruelo, Ling et al. e Oweis. Os resultados do monitoramento apresentaram valores de recalques entre 79 e 204 mm, representando deformações na faixa de 0,16 a 0,41% em relação à altura inicial do maciço. Os modelos Sowers, Meruelo e Ling et al apresentaram valores de recalques relativamente próximos, evidenciando que, embora diferentes conceitualmente, podem ser usados para prever recalques em longo prazo com boa aproximação. O modelo de Oweis é o mais elaborado dos modelos analisados e o que apresentou valores mais elevados de recalques.
ABSTRACT This paper deals with the analysis of the compressibility of the old Marambaia dumping grounds' MSW, located at Nova Iguaçu City (Rio de Janeiro) that was used as a waste dump from 1987 until 2003, when it was closed and remediated. The study was carried out based on superficial settlement monitoring data of reference points between 2008 and 2015. These data were analyzed considering the following compressibility models: Sowers, Meruelo, Ling et al. and Oweis. The results of the monitoring showed settlement values between 79 and 204 mm representing deformations in the range of 0.16 to 0.41% with regards to the of the landfill's initial height. The models of Sowers, Merueloand Ling et al. render settlement values that are relatively close; revealing that, although being different in conception, both can be used to predict long-term settlements with a good approximation. The model of Oweis is the most elaborated of all models analyzed and predicted the greatest values for settlement.

ABSTRACT
RESUMEN: Objetivo: Analizar desde los ámbitos social, técnico e institucional las condiciones de saneamiento que hay actualmente en el asentamiento informal Bajo Los Anonos ubicado en San José, Costa Rica. Métodos: Mediante la aplicación de encuestas a los habitantes del lugar, se realizó una caracterización técnica y social de la autogestión del saneamiento en la comunidad; además, se realizó un muestreo simple de aguas residuales en tres puntos distintos de la comunidad; finalmente, se realizó una encuesta con preguntas abiertas al gestor ambiental de la Municipalidad de Escazú para conocer su perspectiva. Resultados: Aunque un 82% coincidió en que el mal manejo de las aguas residuales es una de las principales problemáticas, más de la mitad de las personas encuestadas no encuentran relación entre el nivel de saneamiento y su injerencia en la salud. El tránsito de aguas residuales en las calles expone a la población a un nivel de riesgo. Aunque la Municipalidad de Escazú es consciente de la problemática, no se tienen planes claros para la comunidad.Conclusiones: La comunidad presenta problemas en cuanto a la correcta gestión de las aguas residuales, debido a una combinación de factores, tales como la falta de acceso a sistemas de saneamiento de calidad, malas prácticas de las vecinas y los vecinos y la falta de apoyo institucional.
ABSTRACT Objective: To analyze from a social, technical and institutional perspective the sanitation conditions that currently exist in the informal settlement Bajo Los Anonos located in San José, Costa Rica. Methods: By applying surveys to the inhabitants of the place, it was made a technical and social characterization of the self-management of sanitation in the community; in addition, it was realized a simple sampling of wastewater in three different points of the community; finally, we made a survey with open questions to the environmental manager of the Municipality of Escazú to know their perspective. Results: Although 82% agreed that poor wastewater management is one of the main problems, more than half of the people did not find a relationship between the level of sanitation and its interference in health. Transit of wastewater in the streets exposes the population to a level of risk. Even though the Municipality of Escazú is aware of the problem, there are no clear plans for the community. Conclusions: The community presents problems regarding the correct management of wastewater, due to a combination of factors, such as lack of access to quality sanitation systems, bad practices of neighbors and lack of institutional support.

RESUMO Os aterros sanitários (ASs) são considerados uma das soluções mais utilizadas para a disposição final de resíduos sólidos urbanos (RSUs) em países em desenvolvimento. Entretanto, um dos problemas são os valores elevados de deslocamentos verticais (recalques), pois os resíduos são muito compressíveis, sofrem degradação com o tempo e, consequentemente, podem ocasionar danos nos sistemas estruturais dos ASs. O objetivo do trabalho foi avaliar os recalques de dois ASs verificando a eficiência de alguns modelos de previsão de recalques. A avaliação foi realizada nos ASs de Minas do Leão e de São Leopoldo, comparando os recalques medidos com os previstos e ajustando os modelos utilizados com base nos dados históricos. A partir das análises realizadas, foi possível verificar que os quatro modelos analisados obtiveram boa aderência entre os valores medidos e previstos.
ABSTRACT Landfills are considered one of the best solutions for the disposal of municipal solid waste (MSW) in developing countries. However, one problem is the high values of vertical displacements (settlements), because the residues are very compressible and undergo degradation with time and consequently may cause damage to structural systems landfill. Theobjective is to evaluate the settlements of two landfills checking the efficiency of some settlements prediction models. The evaluation was performed in Minas do Leão and São Leopoldo Landfills, comparing the measured settlements with the predicted and adjusting the models used based on historical data. From the analyzes, we found that the four analyzed models showed good adhesion between the measured and predicted values.
ABSTRACT
Abstract Morro do Diabo State Park (MDSP) is a significant remnant of the Atlantic Rain Forest in Brazil and is surrounded by rural properties. In that area, wild and domestic animals and humans are in close contact, which facilitates the two-way flow of infectious diseases among them. We assessed endoparasites in domestic livestock from all rural properties surrounding MDSP. There were sampled 197 cattle, 37 horses, 11 sheep, 25 swine, 21 dogs, one cat and 62 groups of chickens from 10 large private properties and 75 rural settlements. Eimeria spp. was present in almost all hosts, excepted in horses, dogs and cats. Giardia cysts were present only in cattle. Nematodes were found in swine, ruminants and horses in high prevalence. Ancylostoma, Toxocara and Sarcocystis were found in dogs. Chickens were found with coccidia, Ascaridida and Capillaria spp.. These parasites can cause malnutrition and reproductive disorders for their hosts. Strategies to prevent and control the spread of endoparasites can improve wildlife, animal and human health in this area.
Resumo O Parque Estadual Morro do diabo (PEMD) é um significante remanescente de Mata Atlântica no Brasil, e rodeado de propriedades rurais. Nesta área humanos, animais domésticos e silvestres vivem próximos, o que facilita o fluxo de agentes infecciosas entre eles. Nós avaliamos a presença de endoparasitas, por meio de exame coproparasitológico dos animais domésticos de todas as propriedades rurais do entorno do PEMD. Foram amostrados 197 bovinos, 37 equinos, 11 ovinos, 25 suínos, 62 grupos de galinhas, 22 cães e 1 gato, residentes em 10 grandes propriedades privadas e 75 assentamentos rurais. Eimeria spp. estava presente em quase todas as espécies hospedeiras, com excessão de equinos, cães e gatos. Cistos de Giardia estavam presentes somente em bovinos. Nematodes foram encontrados em suínos, ruminantes e equinos em alta prevalência. Ancylostoma, Toxocara e Sarcocystis foram encontrados em cães. Galinhas foram encontradas com coccidia, Ascaridida e Capillaria spp.. Os parasitas encontrados podem causar má nutrição e problemas reprodutivos para seus hospedeiros. Medidas de prevenção e controle da dispersão de endoparasitas podem melhorar a condição de saúde pública, animal e ambiental nesta área.

RESUMO: Este artigo tematiza a educação infantil do campo (EIC), focalizando a formação de professores a partir de pesquisa que objetivou compreender como se efetiva a formação continuada dos educadores que atuam em assentamentos do Movimento dos Trabalhadores Rurais Sem Terra (MST). Os dados indicam que a EIC carece de fortalecimento, em especial na parceria entre as ações do MST e a responsabilidade dos municípios, com vistas a encaminhar as ações formativas com os educadores, implicadas com o pertencimento ao trabalho na EIC.
ABSTRACT: This article thematizes the childhood education in the countryside (EIC), focusing on teacher education, based on a research that aims at providing how the continuous training of educators working in settlements of the Movement of Landless Rural Workers (MST) is effective. The data indicate that the EIC needs to be strengthened, especially in the partnership between the actions of the MST and the responsibility of the municipalities, in order to forward the formative actions with educators, implicated in the work affiliation in the EIC.

RESUMO: Este artigo apresentou parte de uma pesquisa realizada no assentamento rural de Vila Nova, município de Santa Rosa do Sul, Santa Catarina, e teve por objetivo central compreender a educação infantil nessa comunidade tendo em vista o contexto histórico e social. Foram realizadas: revisão de bibliografias e pesquisas; entrevistas com profissionais da educação, moradores e agentes comunitários; observações; questionários às famílias assentadas e análise de relatórios dos agentes comunitários de saúde locais. Foi percorrido o acervo histórico do Museu do Instituto Federal Catarinense, com acesso a depoimentos de antigos moradores do assentamento. O estudo revelou elementos do passado e do presente na escola rural de Vila Nova que constituem uma trajetória contínua e com contradições que não diferem da realidade brasileira na educação infantil do campo: promessas de melhores condições de vida para a população rural que não se concretizam, infraestrutura precária, atendimento insuficiente que exclui a creche, as grandes distâncias, o problema do transporte escolar e a falta de planejamento para o trabalho nas escolas no campo.
ABSTRACT: This article presents part of a research carried out in the rural settlement of Vila Nova, municipality of Santa Rosa do Sul, Santa Catarina, Brazil, and had as main objective to understand the infant education in this community in view of the historical and social context. The following were carried out: review of bibliographies and research; interviews with education professionals, residents and community agents; comments; questionnaires to settled families; and analysis of reports of local health agents. The historical collection of the Museum of the Federal Institute of Santa Catarina was visited, with access to testimonies of former residents of the settlement. The study reveals elements of past and present in the rural school of Vila Nova, which constitute a continuous trajectory with contradictions that do not differ from Brazilian reality in the rural childhood education: promises of better living conditions for the rural population that do not materialize, precarious infrastructure, insufficient care that excludes day care, great distances, the problem of school transportation and lack of planning for work in schools in the countryside.
ABSTRACT
A partir de una revisión bibliográfica exhaustiva sobre el tema de Mejoramiento Barrial y Urbano (MBU), se presenta a continuación una sinopsis crítica del panorama situacional de este modelo de intervención comunitaria en Costa Rica. Se realizó una recolección de información de fuentes documentales secundarias en bases de datos a nivel internacional sobre los temas de Mejoramiento Barrial y Urbano (MBU) y métodos de intervención participativos para el aprovechamiento de espacios públicos en zonas urbanas. Después de establecer y valorar los criterios de inclusión y exclusión, se seleccionaron seis de las publicaciones científicas recuperadas, relacionadas con el tema de interés, y se elaboraron informes analíticos críticos de cada una de ellas y en conjunto, para lo cual se utilizó una matriz cualitativa de entrada de datos. Los hallazgos sirven de precedente para inferir que la Salud Ambiental constituye el mejor indicador de la habitabilidad de los asentamientos humanos y, considerando que aún no se evalúan los beneficios a la salud de la implementación de procesos de Mejoramiento Barrial y Urbano en Costa Rica, constituye un reto y una oportunidad para la disciplina el involucramiento en el abordaje integral de este proceso en el país para contribuir a la reconstrucción social y participativa de la salud comunitaria.
From an exhaustive literature review on the subject of Neighborhood and Urban Improvement (MBU, by the Spanish acronym), a critical overview of the situational outlook of this model of community intervention in Costa Rica is presented below. A collection of information was carried out from secondary documentary sources internationally on issues of Neighborhood and Urban Improvement programs (MBU) and participatory intervention methods for the use of public spaces in urban areas. After establishing and evaluating the criteria for inclusion and exclusion, six of all the scientific publications recovered related to these topics were selected and subjected to critical analysis separately and altogether, for which a qualitative input data matrix was used. The findings serve as a precedent to infer that the Environmental Health is the best indicator of the livability of human settlements and, considering that the health benefits of implementing Neighborhood and Urban Improvement processes in Costa Rica are yet to be evaluated, it is a challenge and an opportunity for the discipline to get involved in a comprehensive approach to this process in the country to contribute to the social and participatory reconstruction of community health.
ABSTRACT
Resumo A insegurança alimentar ocorre quando o direito a uma alimentação em qualidade e quantidade adequada de forma regular é desrespeitado. O objetivo deste estudo foi identificar a situação de insegurança alimentar (IAN) e suas possíveis associações com variáveis socioeconômicas e dietéticas em assentamentos rurais de Sergipe. Essa situação foi verificada através da escala brasileira de insegurança alimentar e as associações através da análise de regressão multivariada por odds ratio (OR). Foram avaliadas 179 famílias de quatro assentamentos do estado de Sergipe. Identificou-se prevalência de 88,8% de IAN, sendo 48,6% insegurança leve, 25,1% moderada e 15,1% grave. Associação estatística ajustada foi encontrada entre a IAN e as variáveis renda familiar per capita (ORa = 3,11, p = 0,008) e variedade alimentar (Ora = 2,73, p = 0,004). As famílias apresentaram alta prevalência de insegurança alimentar e nutricional, determinada nesta população, pela baixa renda familiar e pela baixa variedade da alimentação. É imprescindível políticas públicas mais efetivas, que, de fato, garantam a segurança alimentar e sejam mais completas, visando também à educação nutricional e maior possibilidade para produção de alimentos.
Abstract Food insecurity occurs when the right to food in adequate quality and quantity on a regular basis is disrespected. This study aimed to identify food and nutrition insecurity (FNI) and its possible association with socioeconomic and dietary variables in rural settlements of Sergipe. We verified food insecurity through the Brazilian of Food Insecurity Scale and associations via odds ratio multivariate regression analysis. We evaluated 179 families from four rural settlements in the state of Sergipe. An FNI prevalence of 88.8% was identified (48.6% light insecurity, 25.1% moderate and 15.1% severe). An adjusted statistical association was found between FNI and variables family income per capita (ORa = 3.11, p = 0.008) and food variety (ORa = 2.73, p = 0.004). Families showed high prevalence of food and nutritional insecurity, determined by low income and low variety of food in this population. It is essential to implement more effective and comprehensive public policies that actually ensure food security, also aiming at nutrition education and greater food production opportunities.
ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE Investigate patterns and factors associated with tobacco consumption among residents of a rural settlement. METHODS A cross-sectional study conducted between September and November 2014, with 172 residents of a rural settlement in the Midwest region of Brazil. We analyzed as dependent variables tobacco consumption at some point in life; current tobacco consumption; tobacco abuse; and the high risk of nicotine dependence, with sociodemographic variables associated with tobacco use, and we applied the Alcohol, Smoking, and Substance Involvement Screening Test (ASSIST) and Self-Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ-20). RESULTS The prevalence of tobacco use in life, current use, tobacco abuse, and high risk of nicotine dependence were 62.2%, 20.9%, 59.8%, and 10.3%, respectively. Advanced age, low education level, evangelical religion, marijuana use, hypnotic or sedative consumption, and male gender were factors associated with smoking patterns in the settlers. CONCLUSIONS There was a high prevalence of smoking patterns, evidencing the need for public policies on tobacco prevention and control in this population.

O elevado consumo de bebidas alcoólicas constitui um problema de saúde pública e centra-se em algumas populações vulneráveis, como os residentes de assentamentos rurais. Estudo de corte transversal, de base populacional que investigou o consumo de bebidas alcoólicas em 172 indivíduos. Objetivou estimar a prevalência e fatores associados ao consumo de álcool em residentes do Assentamento Rural Olga Benário, localizado no município de Ipameri na região sudeste do estado de Goiás. Os dados foram coletados por questionário estruturado e instrumento de rastreio intitulado o Alcohol, Smoking and Substance Involvement Screening Test (ASSIST). Os resultados apresentaram prevalência de usode álcool na vida de 77,9%, últimos três meses de 29,1% e para o último mês de 19,2%. Na análise multivariada o fator independentemente associado ao consumo de álcool na vida foi sexo masculino. Com relação ao uso de álcool nos últimos três meses foram associados possuir renda > 1000,00 reais, religião evangélica e consumo de maconha.Associado ao último mês de consumo obteve-se religião evangélica. Do total de participantes, 20,14% apresentaram uso nocivo de álcool, onde se verificou, em análise multivariada, que religião evangélica, religião católica, ter sofrido ato de violência e uso de maconha permaneceram como fatores independentes do uso nocivo de álcool. A variável religião evangélica apresentou-se como fator protetor ao uso de álcool. O conhecimento destas variáveis direciona o planejamento de ações de promoção da saúde voltadas à prevenção do uso de álcool e melhoria da qualidade de vida de assentados rurais
The high consumption of alcoholic beverages is a public health problem and focuses on some vulnerable populations,such as residents of rural settlements. A cross-sectional study population-based investigating the alcohol consumption in172 individuals. The objective was to estimate the prevalence and factors associated with alcohol consumption amongresidents of the Olga Benário Rural Settlement, located in the municipality of Ipameri in the southeastern region of thestate of Goiás. The data were collected through a structured questionnaire and screening instrument titled Alcohol,Smoking and Substance Involvement Screening Test (ASSIST). The results showed prevalence of alcohol use in the lifeof 77.9%, the last three months and 29.1% for the last month of 19.2%. In multivariate analysis the independent factorassociated with the consumption of alcohol was male. Regarding the use of alcohol in the last three months we havebeen associated income > 1000.00 reais, evangelical religion and marijuana use. Associated with the last month ofconsumption was obtained evangelical religion. Of the total number of participants, 20.14% presented harmful use ofalcohol, where it was found in a multivariate analysis that the evangelical religion, the Catholic religion, having sufferedviolence and marijuana use remained independent factors of the harmful use of alcohol. The variable evangelical religionappeared as a protective factor against alcohol. The knowledge of these variables directs the planning of actions ofhealth promotion aimed at the prevention of alcohol use and improvement of the quality of life of rural settlers
