In this study, the events following application of the insecticideDemand 2.5 concentrated solution (CS) in the field, to control Tityus stigmurus, were investigated. Data on attitudes and practices relating to scorpionism were collected using a questionnaire. During the months of May to July 2005, 69 premises were monitored on different days following insecticide treatment, focusing on scorpion frequency and mortality. According to the results, 42% of the premises showed scorpion incidence, with an average of three specimens per house. The highest incidence was recorded during the first week following the treatment. Only 7% of the specimens were found dead. Most (72%) of the population showed knowledge about prevention and control measures. Despite this, 100% of the premises presented breeding sites, mainly in debris (79.7%). These results indicate that the scorpion control method used by health agents during this investigation was not efficient, and the results suggest that the method may have had a dispersive effect on these animals.

This paper evaluates the extent to which war-related psychological distress causes poverty. The endogeneous nature of mental distress is addressed by using exposure to the civil war in Mozambique as an instrument. It is found that exposure to war has a significant and positive long-lasting impact on mental distress. Furthermore, the causal impact of war-related psychological distress on income and wealth is shown to be significant, negative, and nonnegligible. One standard deviation increase in mental distress decreases income by half a standard deviation. These findings are robust to alternative specifications, including the use of an alternative database on the incidence of PTSD in Mozambique.

Introduction Portuguese man-of-war, Physalia physalis (Linnaeus, 1758), are cnidarians capable of discharging intracellular organelles filled with venom, resulting in severe envenomation in humans. Methods We report the clinical and therapeutic aspects of 331 accidents involving Portuguese man-of-war in an outbreak on the coast of the State of São Paulo, Brazil. Results The clinical manifestations of envenomation were rare and mild and mostly local, systemic reactions; there was a low rate of late complications. Conclusions The consequences of envenomation were of moderate severity, and first aid measures were effective in controlling the pain. Outbreaks of accidents involving Portuguese man-of-war occur periodically in the area without a clear explanation.

A presente dissertação tem como objectivo a elaboração de uma biografia do psiquiatra Luís Cebola, com ênfase na sua concepção da prática clínica e no seu posicionamento ideológico. Além disso, pretende-se ampliar a compreensão acerca da conceptualização da doença mental, bem como dos tratamentos psiquiátricos aplicados em Portugal, durante a primeira metade do século XX, tendo por base o seu desempenho enquanto director clínico – desde 1911 até 1949 – da Casa de Saúde do Telhal (CST), pertencente à Ordem Hospitaleira de São João de Deus (OHSJD). Esta dissertação representa um estudo pioneiro sobre esta personalidade – negligenciada pela história da psiquiatra praticada até agora em Portugal – e sobre as suas contribuições para o desenvolvimento da psiquiatria portuguesa, bem como para a disseminação-popularização de temas médicos e científicos. Demonstra-se que os tratamentos aplicados na CST, sob a sua direcção clínica, se mantiveram actualizados, tanto em relação aos outros hospitais psiquiátricos portugueses como em relação às instituições estrangeiras. As viagens que Cebola realizou a hospitais psiquiátricos de diversos países europeus, muito contribuíram para a modernização do ambiente hospitalar e terapêutico da CST, bem como para o seu privilegiar da terapia ocupacional – a ergoterapia – enquanto método de tratamento. Conclui-se que o esquecimento do médico por parte dos seus colegas de profissão, bem como pelos estudos históricos da disciplina, se deverá principalmente a três factores: em primeiro lugar, Cebola não desenvolveu projectos de investigação, e, por conseguinte manteve-se afastado das publicações da especialidade, bem como dos debates científicos da época; em segundo lugar, não formou discípulos, não dando, desse modo, continuidade à sua visão da prática clínica; e por último, as suas publicações de crítica sociopolítica, censurando o regime do Estado Novo, a Igreja Católica, e a psicocirurgia, criaram plausivelmente uma relação de tensão com os Irmãos da OHSJD e com a nova geração de psiquiatras.

This study is specifically concerned with the effect of the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) on the Business Process Redesign (BPR). Researcher’s experience and the investigation on previous researches imply that BPR and ERP are deeply related to each other and a study to found the mentioned relation further is necessary. In order to elaborate the hypothesis, a case study, in particular Turkish electricity distribution market and the phase of privatization are investigated. Eight companies that have taken part in privatization process and executed BPR serve as cases in this study. During the research, the cases are evaluated through critical success factors on both BPR and ERP. It was seen that combining the ERP Solution features with business processes lead the companies to be successful in ERP and BPR implementation. When the companies’ success and efficiency were compared before and after the ERP implementation, a considerable change was observed in organizational structure. It was spotted that the team composition is important in the success of ERP projects. Additionally, when the ERP is in driver or enabler role, the companies can be considered successful. On the contrary, when the ERP has a neutral role of business processes, the project fails. In conclusion, it can be said that the companies, which have implemented the ERP successfully, have accomplished the goals of the BPR.
