A revenda de combustível e os limites constitucionais para a sua regulação: uma análise aplicada aos aspectos concorrênciais e ao controle de preços

The gas retail represents the end of a section of the oil and natural gas derivative chain, for it is at this stage where the commercialization of those merchandises takes place towards the costumers. This process involves an enormous amount of economic agents, which reflects on an activity of great influence on the citizen's everyday. By the time of the gas retail price liberalization, in 2002, there were great expectations towards that measure, for the insertion of that segment in a competitive market was likely to create a decrease in prices. As there was not a drastic drop off in cost, the question was no longer the price itself, but, predominantly, the conduct taken by the economic agents that operate the market. Not in vain, the segment introduces a greater number of different procedures combined with the organs that compose the Brazilian System of Competition Protection. What is understood, however, is that many of these complaints are made in a lightly way, without a proper analysis of the market and its practices, that being why, in this paper, evidences the causes of these complaints and explained what, in fact, occurs in this market. Also, the organs that protect the free initiative in the sector use different methods to assess anticompetitive practices, which are counterproductive on the combat of anticompetitive practice, that being why the present paper analyzes the used methods on a critic perspective, choosing one which is believed to be the most adequate. The present work also tries to present the gas retail prices on a constitutional, free competition, free initiative and consumers defense perspective, analyzing the competition s aspects on the gas market; the shaping of the gas prices; the market boundaries; the anti-competitive practices under the gas market; and analyze the possibility, according to the defined economic standards in the constitutional text of existing a greater control or gas price indexing and/or regulation which limits the distributors and resellers profit on gas. Still, in consequence of this analysis, a study on Natal s market behavior will be developed in its competitive feature. That being said, moreover being a theoretical-descriptive study, data and statistics gathered is used, which will lead, willing to grasp an experiential study on a few aspects of the Potiguar gas retail market

The motivation for the meeting place of my difficulties as a person and especially as a teacher in the face of nursing students in dealing with death on a day-to-day hospital during the undergraduate course. Death became known that this evil looms before men and destabilizing, causing often irreversible mental disorders when faced with family loss. Therefore, it is appropriate to study it the possibility of making us reflect on our way of living life and dealing with human beings from the perspective of finitude. Aimed to understand the meaning of death for nursing students. For this purpose, it was based on the following guiding question: What is the meaning of death for you as a nursing student? From this perspective, the study was developed within a qualitative dimension of the phenomenological approach. To perform ten students were interviewed during the month of July 2009. Emerged from these interviews a variety of feelings such as fear, anxiety, insecurity, failure, sadness, as the sensory experience of each. To understand the meaning units that emerged from the empirical data which constitute the essence of this research were fundamental studies dealing with Heidegger about the death in a phenomenological perspective, as well as authors Bicudo, D'Assunção, Dastur, Morin, Boff, Kübler-Ross, Boemer, among others. From the understanding of the phenomenon, we can say that death produces mixed feelings in these students that lead to selfprotection, understood, often as a departure from the other, at the approach of death. However, it proved to be sensitive and receptive to the approach of death in other dimensions, beyond the highly technical aspects, pointing to a paradigm shift that has the yeast's own willingness to change. In addition, the research highlights the weaknesses in the education of nurses regarding the understanding of the whole human death and the need to overcome them.

Prevalência e fatores de risco para transtornos mentais comuns entre estudantes de medicina

OBJETIVO: Estimar a prevalência de transtornos mentais comuns entre estudantes de medicina e respectivos fatores de risco. MÉTODOS: Estudo transversal realizado com 551 universitários de um curso de medicina de Botucatu, SP. Utilizou-se questionário auto-aplicável investigando aspectos sócio demográficos, relacionados ao curso e o Self Reporting Questionnaire. Para análise dos dados empregaram-se os testes de qui-quadrado e regressão logística. RESULTADOS: Participaram 82,6% dos alunos matriculados no curso, predominando mulheres (61%), jovens (60% 20-23 anos), procedentes de outros municípios (99%). A prevalência de transtornos mentais comuns foi de 44,7% associando-se independentemente a: dificuldade para fazer amigos (RC=2,0), avaliação ruim sobre desempenho escolar (RC=1,7), pensar em abandonar o curso (RC=5,0), não receber o apoio emocional de que necessita (RC=4,6). Embora na primeira análise a prevalência tenha se mostrado associada ao ano do curso, esta associação não se manteve na análise multivariada. CONCLUSÕES: A prevalência de transtornos mentais comuns mostrou-se elevada entre os estudantes de medicina, associando-se a variáveis relacionadas à rede de apoio. As experiências emocionalmente tensas como o contato com pacientes graves, formação de grupos, entre outras, vividas nos últimos anos do curso, são provavelmente potentes estressores, especialmente para sujeitos com uma rede de apoio considerada deficiente. Sugere-se que instituições formadoras estejam atentas a esse fato, estabelecendo intervenções voltadas ao acolhimento e ao cuidado com o sofrimento dos estudantes.
