Proyecciones de población = Population projections

El Observatorio Demográfico 2013 contiene indicadores seleccionados de la revisión de 2013 de las estimaciones y proyecciones de la población analizada. Las cifras contenidas en esta publicación constituyen una revisión de las presentadas en el Observatorio 2012. En esta oportunidad, se actualizaron las estimaciones y proyecciones de la población urbana y rural desde 1950 hasta 2050, extendiéndose el período de estimación y de proyección. La metodología utilizada es la habitual, pero en esta oportunidad se ajustaron las tendencias observadas para lograr una proyección de más largo plazo en los países que no cuentan con censos de la década de 2010. En las próximas ediciones se irán incorporando las nuevas estimaciones y proyecciones de población en que se consideren los censos más recientes y otras fuentes a medida que estén disponibles. Como es habitual, se incluye un capítulo en el que se analizan las tendencias demográficas. En esta oportunidad, se examinan el crecimiento y la perspectiva de la población urbana en la región. En las notas técnicas de este Observatorio se enumeran las fuentes de datos consideradas para cada país. Cabe señalar que la información correspondiente a las estimaciones y proyecciones de la población nacional, urbana, rural y económicamente activa está disponible en formato de hojas de cálculo en el sitio web del CELADE-División de Población de la CEPAL (http://www.eclac.org/celade/).

Importance of physical therapy in the family health strategy: integrative review

Objective: to analyze the importance of physical therapy in the Family Health Strategy (FHS). Methodology: integrative literature review, guided by the research question << What is the importance of physical therapy in the FHS? >>. The survey was conducted in the Virtual Health Library and in the website Google Scholar in November and December 2012. The inclusion criteria were: fully available scientific study, published between 2007 and 2012, with free access, and having at least one of the DeCS selected in the title. Results: we found out that the importance of physical therapist’s action at the FHS has been recognized both by professionals included in the teams and users of health care units, showing that, by means of the physical therapist’s preventive and clinical action, the costs and demands in the tertiary care can be reduced. Conclusion: the population and the professionals recognize the physical therapist’s positive impact on the FHS.

O trabalho docente na rede pública do estado de São Paulo: apontamentos iniciais para a discussão da jornada de trabalho

The changes in the world of work that, in turn, directly affect the teaching work, have expanded the processes of precariousness and intensification, contributing for deteriorating conditions which teachers use to labor. Considering that the time designated for teaching activities is an important part of work conditions, we look for, in this article, to analyze the work shift of teachers in São Paulo state educational public system. Regarding that teachers are a very heterogeneous group, we have chosen to discuss the workday those professionals who dedicate themselves in the last years of elementary and high school. Through a literature review and a research about the legislation related to the topic, in Brazil and São Paulo state, we have highlighted that the teachers’ work shifts should include not only the time for classroom activities, but also for other extra activities. Moreover, we emphasize that the state of São Paulo government has promoted, since 2012, a reformulation of the teachers’ work shift that has not properly include the appropriate length of time for extra educational activities, contrasting the parameters founded in the national legislation. Besides the legal non-compliance, that fact has accentuated the process of intensification of teaching work, contributing for the embrittlement of the collective activities.

Tree species community spatial structure in a terra firme Amazon forest, Brazil

All trees with diameter at breast height dbh >= 10.0 cm were stem-mapped in a "terra firme" tropical rainforest in the Brazilian Amazon, at the EMBRAPA Experimental Site, Manaus, Brazil. Specifically, the relationships of tree species with soil properties were determined by using canonical correspondence analyses based on nine soil variables and 68 tree species. From the canonical correspondence analyses, the species were grouped into two groups: one where species occur mainly in sandy sites, presenting low organic matter content; and another one where species occur mainly in dry and clayey sites. Hence, we used Ripley's K function to analyze the distribution of species in 32 plots ranging from 2,500 m(2) to 20,000 m(2) to determine whether each group presents some spatial aggregation as a soil variations result. Significant spatial aggregation for the two groups was found only at over 10,000 m(2) sampling units, particularly for those species found in clayey soils and drier environments, where the sampling units investigated seemed to meet the species requirements. Soil variables, mediated by topographic positions had influenced species spatial aggregation, mainly in an intermediate to large distances varied range (>= 20 m). Based on our findings, we conclude that environmental heterogeneity and 10,000 m(2) minimum sample unit sizes should be considered in forest dynamic studies in order to understand the spatial processes structuring the "terra firme" tropical rainforest in Brazilian Amazon.
