The study in question aimed to present a State of the Art on probabilistic thinking in the light of Henri Bergson's work memory and life. As a research methodology, the state of the art of Romaousch and Ens (2006) was adopted. The following trends in mathematics education were used as an analysis category: Information Processing and Problem Solving. The results pointed to a reduced number of research on the subject and few studies focused on the importance of working on probabilistic thinking from the beginning of the grades. Only one of the studies was superficially related to the work "Memory and Life" by Henri Bergson, that is, there is a need for more research in this vein. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The study of benthic meiofauna has been undertaken in Latin America since the beginning of the 20th century, recently gaining attention due to its recognized role on the ecological functioning of meiofauna assemblages. Bibliometric data provide information regarding research results, explain the degree to which a subject has advanced, and identify its major strengths and weaknesses. In Latin American countries, this type of review is scarce for meiofauna communities. This study analyzes knowledge of marine meiofauna by focusing on the documents Latin American authors published from 1990 to 2021. Documents from three bibliographic databases were analyzed to obtain the most relevant bibliometric indicators. Moreover, the interrelationships between authors, countries, and concepts were analyzed using science mapping techniques. Latin American research on marine meiofauna has increased since the 1990s, producing a total of 399 documents over three decades by almost 1,000 authors. Brazil produced the majority of these documents (predominantly published by Brazilian authors and institutions). The number of documents by country was associated with five development indicators. Their main sources and keywords indicate that ecology, oceanography, and biogeography were the main addressed topics, especially on deep marine environments. Most productive authors were clustered into main research groups with varying degrees of links. We conclude that research efforts on marine meiofauna are gaining importance despite the small number of documents by a relatively low number of research groups. We found a high centralization of documents by countries and a relation with four indicators, such as country size and research spending. Greater regional collaboration could further expand the knowledge of marine meiofauna in Latin America. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article aims to map and present which publications are located on the Periodical Portal of the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES) that deal with organizational communication in educational institutions. The central proposal of the study is to identify whether there are publications that involve these two areas, who published them, which spaces were these publications were carried out and a brief qualitative analysis of the research found, constructing a state-of-the-art research. The search was carried out on the CAPES Journal Portal and focused only on theses, dissertations and peer-reviewed articles. Nine works were selected for full reading, including one thesis, two dissertations and six peerreviewed articles. After reading the materials, it can be seen that the number of publications relating the two concepts presented is still low, suggesting a research gap to be investigated in more depth by researchers in the area. Another finding, obtained through a qualitative analysis of the works found, is that communication carried out in school environments is still seen in a utilitarian way, as if it existed only to provide accountability or publicize student selection processes, despite the importance of this area is recognized by educational managers. Therefore, it was possible to understand that communication in educational institutions needs to be worked on from a broader logic, that its use is strategic and not based on specific actions, which will positively impact the relationship between institutions and their audiences.

One of the complications of Badiou's theory of the subject is that he did not provide a uniform and specific definition of the subject; And in reading his works, we are faced with different definitions of the subject, especially the subject of art. The basic question of this research is how we can provide a comprehensive and understandable definition of the subject of art in Alain Badiou's subject theory. Considering the efforts that have been made before to answer this question, this research aims to provide a new answer to this question. Unlike his predecessors and greatly influenced by Lacan, Badiou introduces a subject that is created during a process of truth. A subject that did not exist before the occurrence of an event and is created in a historical or artistic situation; But the complexity of Badiou's definition lies in the fact that despite having human characteristics, such as loyalty to an event, this subject is not a human person. Badiou introduces both the artwork and the artist as subjects in an artistic situation; And according to Badiou's definitions and subjectization procedure in Badiou's thought, we answered the question that in an artistic situation we are faced with the artist-work pair as a part of the subject faithful to the artistic event.

In different moments of the historical context of literacy in Brazil, advocates of methodologies considered innovative, aimed to homogenize the process, aiming at overcoming the traditional. Various practices, methods, booklets, programs, and actions were widely disseminated, which today constitute research topics in the History of Education. In this sense, we aim to demonstrate the state of the art of scientific articles referring to the History of Literacy, published in the Brazilian Literacy Magazine, between 2015 and 2022. The investigation is based on research of the state of knowledge, and the source was constituted in the publications of mentioned journal, with analyzes based on historicaldialectical materialism. It was possible to verify the presence of 42 studies in the area, with greater emphasis on the approach to booklets and literacy methods, themes to which two dossiers of the Journal were dedicated.

The article has as its starting point the scientific research, found in the realization of the State of the Art, which addresses the effects of meanings through the discursive production and communication strategies of the Barbie brand from the year 2015, since the year of 2015 and 2016 were considered the periods of "female empowerment" in advertising (Barreto Januário; Veloso, 2017). Considering the aspects of class, race and mainly gender, we reflect on the historical process of the feminine and its impacts on the discursive trajectory of the brand. We seek to stress brand strategies that are always linked to the female imagination, and sometimes to the feminist discourse. Finally, we reflect on brands addressing social agendas only in discursive instances, and we highlight the relevance of scientific studies that accompany this process. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Council of Europe Framework Convention on the Value of Cultural Heritage for Society, better known as the Faro Convention, emphasizes the relevance of participation in cultural heritage and its clear potential benefits. Despite the growing literature on participation in cultural heritage, little research through systematic reviews has been conducted in this field. This paper explores definitions of participation, its actors, and its challenges with a focus on cultural heritage, and it aims to fill this gap by providing a systematic literature review based on PRISMA 2020 guidelines and Okoli guidelines. The results reflect on the definition of participation, the different actors involved, and the challenges facing participation in cultural heritage, based on the interactions of actors. Results further indicate that participation in cultural heritage specifically is in an early stage of adoption and that considerable effort is needed in assessing the adequate methodologies to face the challenges.

This research seeks to undertake a state of the art on the theme of private/commercial expansion of higher education in the last ten years in periodicals of national circulation. From the analysis of the findings in the development of the state of the art, it is possible to expand the bibliographic universe with a greater methodological rigor about the problematic highlighted in the present research. Thus, the findings validated by the research understand that the higher education reform movement took place in the colossal private/commercial expansion of this level of education in terms of enrollments and courses in private institutions, as well as pointing to elements that make it possible to privatize the sector higher education as an essential market niche for profit.

This paper aims to analyze the state of the art on the theme of urban environment and health in scientific events in Brazilian Geography between 2008 and 2019. In this sense, the scientific production of the National Meeting of ANPEGE, the Brazilian Symposium on Geographic Climatology, the Brazilian Symposium on Applied Physical Geography, the National Symposium on Urban Geography and the National Symposium on Geomorphology was selected. The methodology consisted of surveying and analyzing the annals of scientific events based on the method of content analysis. Among the results of this analysis, the following stand out: (i) it is observed that the approach to the health-disease process is incipient in the context of the scientific events analyzed; (ii) a diversity is attested regarding the academic training of researchers dedicated to the aforementioned theme; (iii) a heterogeneity of the health problems researched is identified; (iv) it appears that the approach to the socio-environmental conditions of the health-disease process is operationalized from multiple scales of analysis; (v) there is a predominance of studies in cities with medium and large populations; (vi) it is verified that the Southeast and Northeast regions concentrate the largest portion of research (52.4%) on the theme of urban environment and health, considering the current stage of knowledge produced in the context of scientific events.

This article aims to present a general survey of dissertations and theses produced in the context of several stricto sensu postgraduate programs from Brazilian universities with themes focused on toponymy research. The time frame established for the survey was the period from 1980 to January 2020 and the method used for data collection was the Simple Search for the Lattes Curriculum (CNPq, n.d.). The research resulted in a total of 142 works already completed and defended. It was possible to verify, through the analysis of the data, that the most prominent universities with regard to the quantity of works produced in the area in question are the Universidade de São Paulo (USP), a Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMS) e a Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso do Sul (UFMS). The analysis of the titles also allowed to observe that the researchers have opted for different excerpts for their research, such as, for example, focus on the type of semantic motivation of the designatives, on the relations between toponymy and history, on the linguistic origin of the toponyms, on the making of atlases, glossaries and toponyms dictionaries, among others; in addition, the survey shows that the relationship between toponymy research and teaching has been a focus of interest for some researchers in recent years.

On the basis of legal, environmental, social, and economic factors, reverse logistics and closed-loop supply chain issues have attracted attention among both academia and practitioners. A growing number of publications is an expression of reverse logistics trend in the literature which has been lasted for around 40 years. Hence, a comprehensive literature review of recent and state-of-the-art papers is vessential to draw a framework of the past, and to support researchers in their works by indicating journals or adequate references. The aim of this paper was to prepare appropriate literature review procedure and following it to review all papers whose main topis was reverse logistics. The papers were analyzed and categorized to construct a useful foundation of past research with respect to the scale of number of research on reverse logistics, considering stages of reverse logistics development, targeted journals, main research centres and leading countries. Moreover there were reccommended the most valuable papers as references.

Background: Pilonidal sinus disease (PSD) is a chronic troublesome pathology of the natal cleft of the sacrococcygeal region, with an estimated incidence of 26 cases in every 100,000 inhabitants. The aim of this review is to give a snapshot of the current literature on the endoscopic approach to PSD.Methods: A search on endoscopic treatment of pilonidal disease was performed according to PRISMA guidelines, adopting the following search terms: (pilonidal OR sacrococcygeal) and (endoscopic OR VAAPS OR EPSiT OR minimally invasive OR video-assisted OR video assisted).Results: Thirty-four articles were included in the final analysis, among which 23 were on adults and 11 were on pediatric population. The endoscopic approach is associated with painless postoperative pain, good aesthetic results, short time off work, and high patient satisfaction.Despite these advantages in short-term outcomes, results on recurrence rate in a long-term follow up are needed to definitively confirm the importance of this technique.Conclusions: The endoscopic approach is associated with significant postoperative advantages over other standard surgical approaches, and it should be included in the surgical portfolio for the treatment of PSD. According to the Italian guidelines, this technique could be considered as the gold standard for limited PSD. However, the favorable short-term-outcomes and lack of reliable data on long-term follow-up must be a stimulus to perform further high-quality studies to give definitive conclusions on this technique.

Childhood overweight and obesity in Mexico have reached epidemic proportions affecting up to 33.2% of the population. Identifying the type of prevention programs being carried out and which health professionals are involved in their application is necessary to assess their effectiveness. Thus, the objectives of the present systematic review were: a) to identify programs for the prevention of childhood obesity in Mexico, b) to analyze their methodology and indicators of change in order to assess their effectiveness and c) to identify associated psychological theories and the contributions of psychologists in such prevention programs. The search was carried out following the PICO methodology in six databases: Scopus, Scielo, Pubmed, Web of Science, Redalyc and TesiUNAM. Eligible studies were those conducted with Mexican elementary school children (5 to 11 years old), and published between 2008 and 2018. A total of 3502 articles were located, after applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria and six articles were finally analyzed in depth. Body mass index was the recurrent indicator of change to assess the effectiveness of the programs. Interbehaviorism and behaviorism were the most used perspectives to design, apply, and assess preventive programs, when the studies were performed by psychologists. These approaches are not usually adopted in studies conducted by other health professionals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Renewable energy systems are the major components of the strategy to reduce global warming. Hybrid systems using a combination of solar and wind energy are commonly used in remote areas; they have the advantage of reliability and stability. A hybrid energy system includes more than one energy source to cover an electrical load. Energy sources can be renewable as well as conventional. It can either be standalone or grid-connected. When a hybrid energy system includes solar or wind energy, it is important to add an auxiliary source of energy (coming from battery banks, diesel generator, or utility grid) so as to reduce energy cost and ensure system’s reliability. Optimization sizing is one of the most important issues in this type of systems. In this regards much research has been done. The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of different criteria and methods utilized in current literature to find the optimal sizing of grid-connected hybrid PV-wind energy systems. This work concludes with promising techniques for future use in this field. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

L'art médical a évolué au sein d'un environnement technique et scientifique que le droit a pu qualifier de « données acquises de la science » et plus récemment de « connaissances médicales avérées ». Au travers d'un cas clinique et d'une évaluation expertale en commission de conciliation et d'indemnisation, nous reprenons les éléments qui ont constitué le bien-fondé de la prise en charge thérapeutique. Pour l'expert, il s'agit d'analyser un dossier de responsabilité médicale à la lumière de l'état de l'art « à l'époque des faits », car il existe un changement perpétuel de cet état de l'art. The medical art has evolved in a technical and scientific environment that the law has qualified as "data acquired from science" and more recently "proven medical knowledge". Through a clinical case and an expert evaluation in conciliation and compensation commission, we take again the elements which constituted the merits of the therapeutic assumption of responsibility. For the expert, it is a question of analyzing a medical responsibility file in the light of the state of the art "at the material time", because there is a perpetual change in this state of the art.

Desalination is commonly adopted nowadays to overcome the freshwater scarcity in some areas of the world if brackish water or salt water is available. Different kinds of technologies have been proposed in the last century. In this paper, the state of the mainstream solutions is reported, showing the current commercial technologies like reverse osmosis (RO), Multi-Stages Flash desalination (MSF) and Multi-Effect Distillation (MED), and the new frontiers of the research with the aim of exploiting renewable sources such as wind, solar and biomass energy. In these cases, seawater treatment plants are the same as traditional ones, with the only difference being that they use a renewable energy source. Thus, classifications are firstly introduced, considering the working principles, the main energy input required for the treatment, and the potential for coupling with renewable energy sources. Each technology is described in detail, showing how the process works and reporting some data on the state of development. Finally, a statistical analysis is given concerning the spread of the various technologies across the world and which of them are most exploited. In this section, an important energy and exergy analysis is also addressed to quantify energy losses. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This State of the Art investigates Course Completion Works in the context of the Federal University of Pará, Campus Bragança, which deal with black children between 2009 and 2019, based on the Licentiate degrees in Pedagogy and History. The research is qualitative and quantitative, carried out by bibliographic survey and interpreted by the analysis of discourse of Bakhtin (2011). The results reveal that of the 502 researched productions, only 03 deal with black children, for which they demonstrate the presence of stereotypes, depletion and racism in the children's relationship. Therefore, it is necessary to consolidate research on this object, contributing to studies on black childhood and teacher training. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
