A rede social de indivíduos sob tratamento em um CAPS ad: o ecomapa como recurso

Trata-se de um estudo desenvolvido com indivíduos sob tratamento num Centro de Atenção Psicossocial para álcool e drogas (CAPS ad) da região sul do Brasil. O estudo teve 300 horas de observação participante e grupos focais, nos quais se utilizou o ecomapa como instrumento para a discriminação das fontes de suporte social. O estudo objetivou a identificação da rede social de indivíduos sob tratamento devido ao uso abusivo de drogas, promovendo uma reflexão sobre a qualidade e situação dos vínculos estabelecidos com as pessoas significativamente importantes para eles. Os resultados evidenciaram uma trajetória de separações e perdas. O uso do ecomapa permitiu a identificação de pontos vulneráveis nas vinculações destes sujeitos, configurando-se, portanto, numa estratégia ética que possibilita a identificação conjunta (entre profissional e usuário) de necessidades do âmbito social, familiar e individual a serem contempladas no planejamento de cuidados de saúde, sobretudo em saúde mental.

Planejamento familiar de mulheres com transtorno mental: o que profissionais do CAPS têm a dizer

O objetivo deste estudo foi verificar demandas de planejamento familiar que chegam ao Centro de Atendimento Psicossocial (CAPS) e investigar contribuições desse serviço para as mulheres portadoras de transtorno mental. Trata-se de estudo qualitativo, realizado com oito profissionais de um CAPS de Fortaleza-CE. A coleta de dados ocorreu por meio de entrevista, sendo utilizada para análise a técnica de conteúdo. As demandas detectadas foram: solicitação de informações pelos familiares para lidar com paciente sexualmente ativo; pacientes suscetíveis à violência sexual e gravidez; mulheres com depressão, em uso de carbonato de lítio. As contribuições: necessidade de rede integrada (atenção básica/CAPS), com profissionais conhecedores das particularidades do planejamento familiar dessas mulheres - parte defende atendimento na atenção básica, parte, atendimento no CAPS, destacando-se o matriciamento como estratégia a corresponsabilizar os dois polos, evitando encaminhamentos desnecessários aos CAPS, pelo fortalecimento da resolubilidade dos casos na atenção básica.

Mechanisms of garnet growth in eclogites of the Zermatt-Saas Fee unit, Western Alps

THESIS ABSTRACT Garnets are one of the key metamorphic minerals used to study peak metamorphic conditions or crystallization ages. Equilibrium is typically assumed between the garnet and the matrix. This thesis attempts to understand garnet growth in the Zermatt-Saas Fee (ZSF) eclogites, and discusses consequences for Sm/Nd and Lu/Hf dating and the equilibrium assumption. All studied garnets from the ZSF eclogites are strongly zoned in Mn, Fe, Mg, and Ca. Methods based on chemical zoning patterns and on 3D spatial statistics indicate different growth mechanisms depending on the sample studied. Garnets from the Pfulwe area are grown in a system where surface kinetics likely dominated over intergranular diffusion kinetics. Garnets fram two other localities, Nuarsax and Lago di Cignana, seem to have grown in a system where intergranular diffusion kinetics were dominating over surface kinetics, at least during initial growth. Garnets reveal strong prograde REE+Y zoning. They contain narrow central peaks for Lu + Yb + Tm ± Er and at least one additional small peak towards the rim. The REE Sm + Eu + Gd + Tb ± Dy are depleted in the cores but show one prominent peak close to the rim. It is shown that these patterns cam be explained using a transient matrix diffusion model where REE uptake is limited by diffusion in the matrix surrounding the porphyroblast. The secondary peaks in the garnet profiles are interpreted to reflect thermally activated diffusion due to a temperature increase during prograde metamorphism. The model predicts anomalously low 176Lu/177Hf and 147Sm/144Nd ratios in garnets where growth rates are fast compared to diffusion of the REE, which decreases garnet isochron precisions. The sharp Lu zoning was further used to constrain maximum Lu volume diffusion rates in garnet. The modeled minimum pre-exponential diffusion coefficient which fits the measured central peak is in the order of Do = 5.7* 106 m2/s, taking an activation energy of 270 kJ/mol. The latter was chosen in agreement with experimentally determined values. This can be used to estimate a minimum closure temperature of around 630°C for the ZSF zone. Zoning of REE was combined with published Lu/Hf and Sm/Nd age information to redefine the prograde crystallization interval for Lago di Cignana UHP eclogites. Modeling revealed that a prograde growth interval in the order of 25 m.y. is needed to produce the measured spread in ages. RÉSUMÉ Le grenat est un minéral métamorphique clé pour déterminer les conditions du pic de métamorphisme ainsi que l'âge de cristallisation. L'équilibre entre le grenat et la matrice est requis. Cette étude a pour but de comprendre la croissance du grenat dans les éclogites de la zone de Zermatt-Saas Fee (ZSF) et d'examiner quelques conséquences sur les datations Sm/Nd et Lu/Hf. Tous les grenats des éclogites de ZSF étudiés sont fortement zonés en Mn, Fe, Mg et partiellement en Ca. Les différentes méthodes basées sur le modèle de zonation chimique ainsi que sur les statistiques de répartition spatiale en 3D indiquent un mécanisme de croissance différent en fonction de la localité d'échantillonnage. Les grenats provenant de la zone de Pfulwe ont probablement crû dans un système principalement dominé par la cinétique de surface au détriment de 1a cinétique de diffusion intergranulaire. Les grenats provenant de deux autres localités, Nuarsax et Lago di Cignana, semblent avoir cristallisé dans un système dominé par la diffusion intergranulaire, au moins durant les premiers stades de croissance. Les grenats montrent une forte zonation prograde en Terres Rares (REE) ainsi qu'en Y. Les profils présentent au coeur un pic étroit en Lu + Yb+ Tm ± Er et au moins un petit pic supplémentaire vers le bord. Les coeurs des grenats sont appauvris en Sm + Eu + Gd + Tb ± Dy, mais les bords sont marqués par un pic important de ces REE. Ces profils s'expliquent par un modèle de diffusion matricielle dans lequel l'apport en REE est limité par la diffusion dans la matrice environnant les porphyroblastes. Les pics secondaires en bordure de grain reflètent la diffusion activée par l'augmentation de la température lors du métamorphisme prograde. Ce modèle prédit des rapports 176Lu/177Hf et 147Sm/144Nd anormalement bas lorsque les taux de croissance sont plus rapides que la diffusion des REE, ce qui diminue la précision des isochrones impliquant le grenat. La zonation nette en Lu a permis de contraindre le maximum de diffusion volumique par une approche numérique. Le coefficient de diffusion minimum modélisé en adéquation avec les pics mesurés est de l'ordre de Do = 5.7*10-6 m2/s, en prenant une énergie d'activation ~270 kJ/mol déterminée expérimentalement. Ainsi, la température de clôture minimale est estimée aux alentours de 630°C pour la zone ZSF. Des nouvelles données de zonation de REE sont combinées aux âges obtenus avec les rapports Lu/Hf et Sm/Nd qui redéfissent l'intervalle de cristallisation prograde pour les éclogites UHP de Lago di Cignana. La modélisation permet d'attribuer au minimum un intervalle de croissance prograde de 25 Ma afin d'obtenir les âges préalablement mesurés. RESUME GRAND PUBLIC L'un des principaux buts du pétrologue .métamorphique est d'extraire des roches les informations sur l'évolution temporelle, thermique et barométrique qu'elles ont subi au cours de la formation d'une chaîne de montagne. Le grenat est l'un des minéraux clés dans une grande variété de roches métamorphiques. Il a fait l'objet de nombreuses études dans des terrains d'origines variées ou lors d'études expérimentales afin de comprendre ses domaines de stabilité, ses réactions et sa coexistence avec d'autres minéraux. Cela fait du grenat l'un des minéraux les plus attractifs pour la datation des roches. Cependant, lorsqu'on l'utilise pour la datation et/ou pour la géothermobarométrie, on suppose toujours que le grenat croît en équilibre avec les phases coexistantes de la matrice. Pourtant, la croissance d'un minéral est en général liée au processus de déséquilibre. Cette étude a pour but de comprendre comment croît le grenat dans les éclogites de Zermatt - Saas Fee et donc d'évaluer le degré de déséquilibre. Il s'agit aussi d'expliquer les différences d'âges obtenues grâce aux grenats dans les différentes localités de l'unité de Zermatt-Saas Fee. La principale question posée lors de l'étude des mécanismes de croissance du grenat est: Parmi les processus en jeu lors de la croissance du grenat (dissolution des anciens minéraux, transport des éléments vers le nouveau grenat, précipitation d'une nouvelle couche en surface du minéral), lequel est le plus lent et ainsi détermine le degré de déséquilibre? En effet, les grenats d'une des localités (Pfulwe) indiquent que le phénomène d'adhérence en surface est le plus lent, contrairement aux grenats des autres localités (Lago di Cignana, Nuarsax) dans lesquels ce sont les processus de transport qui sont les plus lents. Cela montre que les processus dominants sont variables, même dans des roches similaires de la même unité tectonique. Ceci implique que les processus doivent être déterminés individuellement pour chaque roche afin d'évaluer le degré de déséquilibre du grenat dans la roche. Tous les grenats analysés présentent au coeur une forte concentration de Terres Rares: Lu + Yb + Tm ± Er qui décroît vers le bord du grain. Inversement, les Terres Rares Sm + Eu + Gd + Tb ± Dy sont appauvries au coeur et se concentrent en bordure du grain. La modélisation révèle que ces profils sont-dus à des cinétiques lentes de transport des Terres Rares. De plus, les modèles prédisent des concentrations basses en éléments radiogéniques pères dans certaines roches, ce qui influence fortement sur la précision des âges obtenus par la méthode d'isochrone. Ceci signifie que les roches les plus adaptées pour les datations ne doivent contenir ni beaucoup de grenat ni de très gros cristaux, car dans ce cas, la compétition des éléments entre les cristaux limite à de faibles concentrations la quantité d'éléments pères dans chaque cristal.

Thermodynamic properties and Debye-Waller factor of fee materials

We have calculated the equation of state and the various thermodynamic properties of monatomic fcc crystals by minimizing the Helmholtz free energy derived in the high temperature limit for the quasiharmonic theory, QH, and the lowest-order (cubic and quartic), 'A2, anharmonic terms of the perturbation theory, PT. The total energy in each case is obtained by adding the static energy. The calculation of the thermal properties was carried out for a nearest-neighbour central-force model of the fcc lattice by means of the appropriate thermodynamic relations. We have calculated the lattice constant, the thermal expansion, the coefficient of volume expansion, the specific heat at constant volume and at constant pressure, the isothermal and adiabatic bulk moduli, and the Griineisen parameter, for the rare-gas solids Kr and Xe, and gold. Morse potential and modified Morse potential were each used to represent the atomic interaction for the three fcc materials. For most of the calculated thermodynamic properties from the QH theory, the results for Kr and Xe with the modified Morse potential show an improvement over the results for the Morse potential when compared with the experimental data. However, the results of the 'A 2 equation of state with the modified Morse potential are in good agreement with experiment only in the case of the specific heat at constant volume and at constant pressure. For Au we have calculated the lattice contribution from the QH and 'A 2 PT and the electronic contribution to the thermal properties. The electronic contribution was taken into account by using the free electron model. The results of the thermodynamic properties calculated with the modified Morse potential were similar to those obtained with the Morse potential. U sing the minimized equation of state we also calculated the Mossbauer recoilless fraction for Kr and Xe and the Debye-Waller factor (DWF) for Pb, AI, eu, Ag, and Au. The Mossbauer recoilless fraction was obtained for the above two potentials and Lennard-Jones potential. The L-J potential gives the best agreement with experiment for Kr. No experimental data exists for Xe. At low temperature the calculated DWF results for Pb, AI, and eu show a good agreement with experimental values, but at high temperature the experimental DWF results increase very rapidly. For Ag the computed values were below the expected results at all temperatures. The DWF results of the modified Morse potential for Pb, AI, eu and Ag were slightly better than those of the Morse potential. In the case of Au the calculated values were in poor agreement with experimental results. We have calculated the quasiharmonic phonon dispersion curves for Kr, Xe, eu, Ag, and Au. The calculated and experimental results of the frequencies agree quite well for all the materials except for Au where the longitudinal modes show serious discrepancies with the experimental results. In addition, the two lowest-order anharmonic contributions to the phonon frequency were derived using the Green's function method. The A 2 phonon dispersion curves have been calculated only for eu, and the results were similar to those of the QH dispersion curves. Finally, an expression for the Griineisen parameter "( has been derived from the anharmonic frequencies, and calculated for these materials. The "( results are comparable with those obtained from the thermodynamic definition.

The impact of 21st century Arctic sea ice decline on the climate and mass balance of the Greenland ice sheet and Svalbard’s glaciers and ice caps

The Arctic is a region particularly susceptible to rapid climate change. General circulation models (GCMs) suggest a polar amplification of any global warming signal by a factor of about 1.5 due, in part, to sea ice feedbacks. The dramatic recent decline in multi-year sea ice cover lies outside the standard deviation of the CMIP3 ensemble GCM predictions. Sea ice acts as a barrier between cold air and warmer oceans during winter, as well as inhibiting evaporation from the ocean surface water during the summer. An ice free Arctic would likely have an altered hydrological cycle with more evaporation from the ocean surface leading to changes in precipitation distribution and amount. Using the U.K. Met Office Regional Climate Model (RCM), HadRM3, the atmospheric effects of the observed and projected reduction in Arctic sea ice are investigated. The RCM is driven by the atmospheric GCM HadAM3. Both models are forced with sea surface temperature and sea ice for the period 2061-2090 from the CMIP3 HadGEM1 experiments. Here we use an RCM at 50km resolution over the Arctic and 25km over Svalbard, which captures well the present-day pattern of precipitation and provides a detailed picture of the projected changes in the behaviour of the oceanic-atmosphere moisture fluxes and how they affect precipitation. These experiments show that the projected 21stCentury sea ice decline alone causes large impacts to the surface mass balance (SMB) on Svalbard. However Greenland’s SMB is not significantly affected by sea ice decline alone, but responds with a strongly negative shift in SMB when changes to SST are incorporated into the experiments. This is the first study to characterise the impact of changes in future sea ice to Arctic terrestrial cryosphere mass balance.

Optimal performance fee and flow of funds in asset management contracts

This paper investigates the importance of ow of funds as an implicit incentive in the asset management industry. We build a two-period bi- nomial moral hazard model to explain the trade-o¤s between ow, per- formance and fees where e¤ort depends on the combination of implicit ( ow of funds) and explicit (performance fee) incentives. Two cases are considered. With full commitment, the investor s relevant trade-o¤ is to give up expected return in the second period vis-à-vis to induce e¤ort in the rst period. The more concerned the investor is with today s pay- o¤, the more willing he will be to give up expected return in the second period by penalizing negative excess return in the rst period. Without full commitment, the investor learns some symmetric and imperfect infor- mation about the ability of the manager to obtain positive excess return. In this case, observed returns reveal ability as well as e¤ort choices. We show that powerful implicit incentives may explain the ow-performance relationship with a numerical solution. Besides, risk aversion explains the complementarity between performance fee and ow of funds.
