This study analyzed the Worker’s Healthy Eating Program in Rio Grande do Norte state (RN) to assess its possible impact on the nutritional status of the workers benefitted. To that end, we conducted a cross-sectional observational prospective study based on a multistage stratified random sample comparing 26 small and medium-sized companies from the Manufacturing Sector (textiles, food and beverages, and nonmetallic minerals) of RN, divided into two equal groups (WFP and Non WFP). Interviews were conducted at each company by trained interviewers from Tuesday to Saturday between September and December 2014. Data were collected on the company (characterization and information regarding the program’s desired results) and workers (personal and professional information, anthropometrics, health, lifestyle and food consumed the previous day). Population estimates were calculated for RN on the characteristics of workers and the study variables. The main variable was BMI. The secondary variables were waist circumference (WC), nutritional diagnosis, calorie intake, blood pressure, metabolic variables and lifestyle indicators. The statistical method used was hierarchical mixed effects linear regression for interval variables and hierarchical mixed effects logistic regression for binary variables. The variables measured in ordinal scales were analyzed by ordinal logistic regression adjusted for correlated variables, adopting robust standard errors. The results for interval variables are presented as point estimates and their 95% confidence intervals; and as odds-ratios and their 95% confidence intervals for binary variables. The Fisher’s exact and Student’s t-tests were used for simple comparisons between proportions and means, respectively. Differences were considered statistically significant at p<0.05. A total of 1069 workers were interviewed, of which 541 were from the WFP group and 528 from the Non WFP group. Subjects were predominantly males and average age was 34.5 years. Significant intergroup differences were observed for schooling level, income above 1 MW (minimum wage) and specific training for their position at the company. The results indicated a significant difference between the BMI of workers benefitted, which was on average 0.989 kg/m2 higher than the BMI of workers from the Non WFP group (p=0.002); and between the WC, with the waist circumference of WFP group workers an average of 1.528 cm larger (p<0.05). Higher prevalence of overweight and obesity (p<0.001) and cardiovascular risk (p=0.038) were recorded in the WFP group. Tests on the possible effect of the WFP on health (blood pressure and metabolic indicators) and lifestyle indicators (smoking, alcohol consumption and exercise) were not significant. With respect to worker’s diets, differences were significant for consumption of saturated fat (lunch and daily intake), salt (lunch, other meals and daily intake) and proteins (other meals and daily intake), with higher consumption of these nutrients in the WFP group. The study showed a possible positive impact of the WFP on nutritional status (BMI and WC) among the workers benefitted. No possible effects of the program were observed for the lifestyle indicators studied. Workers benefitted consumed less salt, saturated fat and protein. The relevance of the WFP is recognized for this portion of society and it is understood that, if the program can reach and impact those involved, the development of educational initiatives aimed at nutritional and food safety may also exert a positive influence.

The dog-eating fox (Cerdocyon thous - Linnaeus, 1766) is a medium sized canid widely distributed in South America and occurs in almost all of Brazil. Among the main threats to their conservation are the roadkill mainly caused by habitat loss. The shortage of laboratory bush dogs data affect the veterinary medical care hindering the application of appropriate therapies. This study aimed to evaluate the levels of C-reactive protein, albumin, pre-albumin, ceruloplasmin, haptoglobin and Afla 1 acid glycoprotein and the Prognostic Index Inflammatory Nutritional (IPIN) in this species, thus obtaining a first description of these prognostic markers. They collected 1.5 ml of blood by jugular access 8 of Mato Dogs copies (thous thous) from the Laboratory of collection of Teaching and Research in Wildlife (limpets), Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Federal University of Uberlândia for exams routine. The samples were collected via the jugular vein after physical restraint of animals and trichotomy of the region. After statistical analysis, the values were: albumin: between 2.7 and 3.0 g / dl, alpha 1-acid glycoprotein: between 0.19 and 0.21 g / l, C-reactive protein: between 1.7 and 2 2, prealbumin between 30 and 35 mg / l haptoglobin: between 0.078 and 0.156 and IPIN ≤ 0.006 being considered normal and values ≥ 0.006 considered high. This press description will serve as a basis for studies where animals may be used with specific diseases and, after analysis, compared with the values found in this study and verified the behavior follows the likeness of domestic dogs.

A gestão do conhecimento baseia-se em práticas e processos estruturados para melhor gerir conhecimento como um recurso. Associadas às práticas, também se verificam as ferramentas de tecnologia da informação e comunicação que viabilizam os processos de gestão do conhecimento. O presente estudo teve como objetivo verificar e apontar quais são as práticas de gestão do conhecimento e as ferramentas de tecnologia da informação e comunicação a ela associadas, mais utilizadas em empresas atuantes na indústria de software no Brasil. Para tanto, foi delineado um estudo descritivo de natureza quantitativa que teve como método de pesquisa o levantamento de informações junto a essas empresas. Assim, foram aplicados questionários a 319 funcionários de quinze empresas de software de grande e médio porte atuantes no Brasil. Outra forma de analisar os resultados encontrados considera uma visão baseada nas diferentes dimensões de práticas de gestão do conhecimento. Nesse contexto, a categoria de práticas de gestão do conhecimento que mais se evidenciou na pesquisa foi a dimensão estratégia. Há de se ressaltar que as práticas tratadas isoladamente obtiveram um comportamento diverso das práticas agrupadas em dimensões. Além da observação das ferramentas isoladamente, também foi possível apurar o desempenho das diferentes dimensões de ferramentas de tecnologia da informação e comunicação voltadas à gestão do conhecimento. Assim, a categoria de ferramentas que demonstrou maior influência foi a dimensão inteligência artificial. Também aqui deve-se atentar para o fato de que a observação individual das ferramentas acaba por oferecer um resultado diverso do apurado quanto aos indicadores agrupados em dimensões. Em função disso, há de se sublinhar que o desempenho de determinada ferramenta, de forma independente, pode não coincidir com o desempenho de sua respectiva dimensão.

O presente trabalho teve por objetivo identificar se a aglomeração de lojas de veículos existente na Avenida Marechal Tito / Avenida São Miguel (zona leste do município de São Paulo) forma um cluster comercial varejista, a partir dos fundamentos da performance competitiva de clusters descritos por Zaccarelli et al. (2008). Este é um estudo descritivo de natureza quantitativa, executado a partir de amostragem não-probabilística fundamentada no critério de acessibilidade dos pesquisadores junto aos proprietários e gestores de 128 lojas de automóveis, das quais 85,94% são microempresas, 12,50% são de pequeno porte e 1,56% são de médio porte. Constatou-se que a localidade ainda se encontra em um estágio inicial de cluster comercial varejista, pois apesar de haver forte concorrência entre os lojistas naquela concentração geográfica, com ausência de posições privilegiadas e substituição seletiva dos participantes não competitivos, a cooperação entre eles é incipiente, bem como não há nenhuma iniciativa voltada para o aumento da competitividade do aglomerado como um todo.

O objetivo deste artigo é investigar o sistema federal de financiamento à inovação no Brasil, focalizando os mecanismos de apoio financeiro às empresas oferecidos pelas principais agências federais de fomento. Indaga-se se a aplicação de recursos feita pela FINEP e pelo BNDES, como principais agências, e também pelo SEBRAE, tem sido adequada para estimular a atividade de inovação nas empresas brasileiras. Verifica-se que o sistema federal de financiamento à inovação evoluiu favoravelmente nos últimos dez anos, com o aumento da oferta de recursos, com o surgimento de novos programas e mecanismos de apoio financeiro. Não obstante, ainda há fragilidades relevantes, como a instabilidade no padrão de financiamento, a pulverização e dispersão no uso de recursos, a falta de autonomia das agências, a dificuldade das empresas de pequenos e médio porte acessarem os recursos.

O perfil singular dos projetos de engenharia é caracterizado por diferenças geográficas e culturais, impactos no meio ambiente e pela aplicação de vultosos recursos financeiros e humanos, exercendo pressão para a eficaz gestão dos trabalhos nas organizações. Os resultados advindos do uso das melhores práticas em gerenciamento de projetos em milhares de empresas pelo mundo suscitaram boas expectativas às empresas brasileiras. Assim, a questão que orientou este estudo foi: " de que modo o grau de maturidade em gerenciamento de projetos determina o sucesso de empresas de projetos de engenharia?” O sucesso de empresas projetistas consiste na satisfação final de seus clientes por meio do alcance das principais metas estabelecidas para os projetos, sendo esse o core business dessas organizações. Dessa maneira, o objetivo geral deste trabalho foi o de analisar como o grau de maturidade na gestão de projetos leva ao sucesso as empresas de engenharia. Esta pesquisa classifica-se como descritiva, com abordagem qualitativa e quantitativa. A metodologia contemplou a utilização de surveys interseccionais e entrevistas com gerentes de projetos de três empresas de engenharia de médio porte com foco em mineração. Os resultados deste estudo situaram as empresas de engenharia no patamar de maturidade nível dois, também chamado de “conhecido”, em uma escala de cinco níveis. As análises das informações indicam que o fator-chave para o sucesso de empresas projetistas está no alinhamento estratégico dos projetos com a organização e na capacitação técnica da equipe. Tais fatores são alcançados mais facilmente à medida que as organizações adquirem maturidade no domínio de ferramentas, processos de trabalho e habilidades para gerir seus projetos.

The transformations economical, social and politics in you finish them decades of the century XX brought changes that didn't just limit to the production system. The flexible accumulation took many workers lost her/it their workstations and they look for her/it new survival forms, migrating for administrative activities, of services rendered and for the tourist activity of small and medium load. The State has been investing in the implantation of plans of tourist development in order to create favorable conditions for the reproduction of the tourist activity in Brazil, mainly in the Northeast. A space when it starts to present a predominant economical activity suffers a restructuring in their social and economical relationships. The restructuring of these relationships takes to the construction of a new espacialidade. In the city of Christmas, in Rio Grande do Norte, the neighborhood of Black Tip is the most representative of the public investments for the tourist development. After intense process of tourist urbanization, Black Tip passed interfering in the global context consolidating as the tourist locus in the city. The tourist urbanization of the neighborhood took to the transformation of the space in merchandise that is sold and consumed as such. The recreation of fragments of other cultures brought by social actors, resulting from migratory processes stimulated by the tourist development, it has been presenting ruled social relationships in the informational technology, consumption of global goods and in the fragmentation of the urban space characterized by the internationalization and cosmopolitização. That process has been masking the inequalities partners and cultural as well as the territorial appropriation for an economical elite. The spaces are being appropriate for investors of the tourist section, private investors, agents and real estate producers, where the inequality is not just economical, but also cultural. The local population, mainly of the urban fraction of the Town of Black Tip, it doesn't participate of the productive process in function of the little or any professional qualification and he/she doesn't also have access to the consumption process. To the native ones it remains the fight for the preservation of his/her cultural identity and for the survival

During the last years tropical forest has been a target of intense study especially due to its recent big scale destruction. Although a lot still needs to be explored, we start realizing how negative can the impact of our actions be for the ecosystem. Subsequently, the living community have been developing strategies to overcome this problem avoiding bottlenecks or even extinctions. Cooperative breeding (CB) has been recently pointed out as one of those strategies. CB is a breeding system where more than two individuals raise one brood. In most of the cases, extra individuals are offspring that delay their dispersal and independent breeding what allows them to help their parents raising their siblings in the subsequent breeding season. Such behavior is believed to be due, per example, to the lack of mates or breeding territories (ecological constraints hypothesis), a consequence of habitat fragmentation and/or disturbance. From this point, CB is easily promoted by a higher reproductive success of group vs pairs or single individuals. Accordingly, during this thesis I explore the early post-fledging survival of a cooperative breeding passerine, namely the impact of individual/habitat quality in its survival probability during the dependence period of the chicks. Our study species is the Cabanis’s greenbul (Phyllastrephus cabanisi), a medium-sized, brownish passerine, classified within the Pycnonotidae family. It is found over part of Central Africa in countries such as Angola, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Mozambique and Kenya, inhabiting primary and secondary forests, as well as woodland of various types up to 2700m of altitude. Previous studies have concluded that PC is a facultative cooperative breeder. This study was conducted in Taita Hills (TH) at the Eastern Arc Mountains (EAM), a chain of mountains running from Southeast Kenya to the South of Tanzania. TH comprises an area of 430 ha and has been suffering intense deforestation reflecting 98% forest reduction over the last 200 years. Nowadays its forest is divided in fragments and our study was based in 5of those fragments. We access the post-fledging survival through radio-telemetry. The juvenile survey was done through the breeding females in which transmitters were placed with a leg-loop technique. Ptilochronology is consider to be the study of feather growth bars and has been used to study the nutritional state of a bird. This technique considers that the feather growth rate is positively proportional to the individual capability of ingesting food and to the food availability. This technique is therefore used to infer for individual/habitat quality. Survival was lowest during the first 5 days post-fledging representing 53.3%. During the next 15 days, risk of predation decreased with only 14.3% more deceased individuals. This represents a total of only 33% survived individuals in the end of the 50 days. Our results showed yet a significant positive relationship between flock size and post-fledging survival as well as between ptilochronology values and post-fledgling survival. In practice, these imply that on this population, as bigger the flock, as greater the post fledging survival and that good habitat quality or good BF quality, will lead to a higher juvenile survival rate. We believe that CB is therefore an adaptive behaviour to the lack of mates/breeding territory originated from the mass forest destruction and disturbance. Such results confirms the critical importance of habitat quality in the post-fledging survival and, for the first time, demonstrates how flock size influences the living probability of the juveniles and therefore how it impacts the (local) population dynamics of this species. In my opinion, future research should be focus in disentangle individual and habitat quality from each other and verify which relationship exist between them. Such study will allow us to understand which factor has a stronger influence in the post-fledging survival and therefore redirect our studies in that direction. In order to confirm the negative impact of human disturbance and forest fragmentation, it would be of major relevance to compare the reproductive strategies and reproductive success of populations living in intact forests and disturbed patches.

When it comes to oil and gas in Brazil is almost certain that we are referring to activities in deep waters off the coast of Campos, Rio de Janeiro, the main field of action of PETROBRAS and a small number of multinational oil companies . Since the Law 9.478/97 allows, by means of concessions, that other companies other than Petrobras, to explore and produce oil and gas domestically. Soon it moved, then the private companies that want small and medium-sized businesses to invest in such activities, forming a segment of independent producers, as occurs in other countries. In this context, this work aims at making an economic feasibility study, is currently analyzing how this thread and focus on the factors that contribute to its development as well as those that constitute barriers. To this end, we conducted a survey examining some mature fields that are in production in order to capture cost information in the phases of project, operation and abandonment. The work also presents an analysis of the results obtained in the survey, identifying the costs higher. With the results obtained through the study used economic engineering tools such as NPV and IRR, using a variety of design scenarios, to study the economic viability of these fields. In scenario 4 was set a production of 4.0 m³ / d of oil, which is an expected average production for several of these fields, whose minimum value of a barrel of oil, to enable this field, was $ 55.00, this value well below what was being practiced in the market today.
