PESQUISAS EM SAÚDE: Aspectos multidisciplinares – Vol. 2

Este material educativo é o segundo volume do livro intitulado “PESQUISAS EM SAÚDE: Aspectos Multidisciplinares”. Os capítulos surgiram de pesquisas desenvolvidas no Curso de Graduação em enfermagem da Universidade do Vale do Sapucaí. São estudos com abordagem qualitativa, quantitativa e metodológica, que descrevem a construção e a validação de aplicativo, manual, cartilha, qualidade de vida e outros. As pesquisas contidas neste livro foram orientadas por docentes do curso de enfermagem das várias linhas de pesquisa. Este livro é relevante porque mostra a importância do desenvolvimento do TCC na prática clínica e teórica. Ao desenvolver estudo baseado em evidência, estaremos compartilhando com outros profissionais das mais variadas áreas experiências metodológicas, que têm como resultado a prestação da assistência baseada em evidência científica e a realização de procedimentos inovadores que levam o discente a uma aprendizagem e a uma nova forma de cuidar, de inovar e de prestar assistência baseada em evidências.

Labor and Product Market Reforms and External Imbalances: Evidence from Advanced Economies

We explore the impact of major labor and product market reforms on current account dynamics using a new “narrative” database of major changes in employment protection for regular workers and product market regulation for non-manufacturing industries covering 26 advanced economies over the past four decades. Our main finding is that product market deregulation is associated with a weakening of the current account, while labor market deregulation is associated with an improvement. These effects are transitory and driven by both saving and investment responses. Labor and product market reforms both have a more positive impact on the current account balance when implemented under weak macroeconomic conditions. Our results are broadly consistent with predictions from recent DSGE models with endogenous producer entry and labor market frictions.

Primates in Fragments

This book is number two in a series for Primates in Fragments. In this volume, ten years after the first http://www.springer.com/social+sciences/anthropology+%26+archaeology/book/978-0-306-47696-9, we continue to address issues regarding primates within a fractured landscape. There are seven sections based on specific categories of primates in fragments. In the Introductory section, authors discuss the issues surrounding primates in remnant habitats as well as encourage discussion about what we mean by fragmentation on a landscape scale. In the Long-Term and Regional Studies section, authors present information on changes that have occurred during longer studies as well as changes that have ...

The Effects of COVID-19 Vaccines on Economic Activity

This paper empirically examines the economic effects of COVID-19 vaccine rollouts using a cross-country daily database of vaccinations and high frequency indicators of economic activity—nitrogen dioxide (NO2) emissions, carbon monoxide (CO) emissions, and Google mobility indices—for a sample of 46 countries over the period December 16, 2020 to June 20, 2021. Using surprises in vaccines administered, we find that an unexpected increase in vaccination per capita is associated with a significant increase in economic activity. We also find evidence for non-linear effects of vaccines, with the marginal economic benefits being larger when vaccination rates are higher. Country-specific conditions play an important role, with lower economic gains if strict containment measures are in place or if the country is experiencing a severe outbreak. Finally, the results provide evidence of spillovers across borders, highlighting the importance of equitable access to vaccines across nations.

Adaptive Radiations of Neotropical Primates

Twenty-nine proceedings papers from the February 1995 symposium offering the results of studies which review primate evolution and ecology. The researchers introduce Platyrrhines, their systematics and geographic distributions, raise problematic issues relevant to the four subfamilies, identify dist

Ecological Economics Research Trends

This new book presents important research in the field of ecological economics which is a trans-disciplinary field of academic research that addresses the dynamic and spatial interdependence between human economies and natural ecosystems. Ecological economics brings together and connects different disciplines, within the natural and social sciences but especially between these broad areas. Ecological economics presents a more pluralistic approach to the study of environmental problems and policy solutions, characterised by systems perspectives, adequate physical and biological contexts, and a focus on long-term environmental sustainability.

Long-Term Macroeconomic Effects of Climate Change: A Cross-Country Analysis

We study the long-term impact of climate change on economic activity across countries, using a stochastic growth model where labor productivity is affected by country-specific climate variables—defined as deviations of temperature and precipitation from their historical norms. Using a panel data set of 174 countries over the years 1960 to 2014, we find that per-capita real output growth is adversely affected by persistent changes in the temperature above or below its historical norm, but we do not obtain any statistically significant effects for changes in precipitation. Our counterfactual analysis suggests that a persistent increase in average global temperature by 0.04°C per year, in th...

After publication of the first volume of the Tropical Rain Forest, the International Journal of Mycology and Lichenology commented ``This is a welcome addition to the literature on the ecology of tropical rain forests. The book provides a wealth of data and stimulating discussions and is of great interest to ecologists interested in tropical areas.'' Whereas the first volume dealt with system-ecological aspects such as community organization and processes, the present volume concentrates on biogeographical aspects such as species composition, diversity, and geographical variation.Recent ecological research in the tropical rain forest has greatly extended our understanding of biogeographical ...
