Esta dissertação é um estudo de caso sobre os impactes socioculturais do turismo residencial no município de Tarrafal, ilha de Santiago em Cabo Verde. Partindo de um esquema teórico herdeiro da Sociologia e Antropologia do turismo, começaremos por analisar alguns temas centrais acerca do Turismo. Pretende-se dar uma visão de Cabo Verde enquanto destino turístico procurando dar conta da evolução do mercado turístico, seus impactes, considerando que o turismo revela-se como principal motor da economia deste arquipélago. Este estudo baseia-se no turismo residencial não institucionalizado na localidade de Tarrafal e torna-se fundamental para o entendimento das relações estabelecidas entre turistas, bem como entre estes com os residentes locais. São analisadas as perceções sobre o estado atual do turismo e, em particular o turismo residencial nesta localidade, contribuindo assim na busca de estratégias para o desenvolvimento sustentável e de melhor qualidade da atividade turística neste local. A aproximação ao “terreno” poderá trazer informações importantes para a definição das linhas de orientação para o planeamento e gestão desta atividade.

This paper will critically consider the implications for Scottish athletes who have publicly stated their personal opinion on the Scottish independence referendum. Developments such as the inclusion of sport within the Scottish Government’s White Paper on Scottish independence, the establishment of the ‘Working Group on Scottish Sport’ and the establishment of the ‘Sport for Yes’ campaign group demonstrate the harnessing of sporting issues as an additional, if somewhat peripheral, debate point in the referendum campaigns (Lafferty, 2014; Scottish Government, 2013; Working Group on Scottish Sport, 2013, 2014). The latter of these developments, the establishment of the ‘Sport for Yes’ campaign group, is of particular interest, offering evidence of the explicit political mobilisation of past and present athletes in support of the ‘Yes Scotland’ pro-independence campaign. Whilst the pro-union ‘Better Together’ campaign does not possess a comparable group to the ‘Sport for Yes’ example, examples of athletes discussing the potential negative impact of Scottish independence on the funding and organisation of Scottish sport have been capitalised upon by pro-union campaigners, as exemplified in the comments of Sir Chris Hoy (BBC, 2013; Daily Record, 2013a). Given the negative reaction to Hoy’s comments from certain pro-independence campaigners (Daily Record, 2013b; Swanson, 2013), other Scottish athletes have understandably attempted to avoid controversy by refusing to align with either side of the referendum debate. This paper will therefore consider the potential pitfalls for athletes who publicly announce their political positions, whilst also scrutinising the extent to which such pronouncements are of political significance, drawing upon past academic analyses of the interrelationship between sport and politics (e.g. Coghlan, 1990; Houlihan, 1994; Jeffreys, 2012; Macfarlane, 1986; Whannel, 2008).

Ensuring sustainable development conditions is presently world widely recognized as a critically important goal. This makes the use of electricity generation technologies based on renewable energy sources very relevant. Developing countries depend on an adequate availability of electrical energy to assure economic progress and are usually characterized by a high increase in electricity consumption. This makes sustainable development a huge challenge but it can also be taken as an opportunity, especially for countries which do not have fossil resources. This paper presents a study concerning the expansion of an already existent wind farm, located in Praia, the capital of Cape Verde Republic. The paper includes results from simulation studies that have been undertaken using PSCAD software and some economic considerations.

A presente dissertação problematiza a trajectória colonial e pós-colonial do funaná, um género de música e dança historicamente associado à população caboverdiana santiaguense e, desde a Independência Nacional do país, difundido entre outros grupos em Cabo Verde e na diáspora. Ao propor uma história e etnografia multisituada, questiona de que modo no contexto da governação colonial, da construção do estado nação e na localização da diáspora da Área Metropolitana de Lisboa do presente póscolonial, o domínio da prática cultural, nomeadamente da prática musical, foi política e socialmente mobilizado na produção das fronteiras de diferença cultural da raça, da nação, do género e da subjectividade incidindo sobre as populações produtoras da cultura expressiva. Defende que após a Independência Nacional de Cabo Verde o funaná se tornou uma prática multiforme, codificando experiências sociais, estéticas e identidades diferenciadas. Enquanto que para uma jovem geração de músicos de perfil urbano e cosmopolita ela passou a ser reenquadrada de acordo com uma poética da nação, para as populações diaspóricas vivendo entre o interior de Santiago, a capital Praia e a Área Metropolitana de Lisboa ela persiste enquanto expressiva e performativa de uma condição diaspórica racializada.

OBJETIVO: Caracterizar os casos com diagnóstico tardio da infecção por VIH na ilha de Santiago, no período de 2004 à 2011, com a discrição de sua distribuição e dos factores associados a esse diagnóstico. MÉTODOS: Foram descritos 368 indivíduos, desses 191 foram identificados como casos e 177 como controlos registrados no Polo Regional de Sotavento, localizado na cidade da Praia, criado com o intuito de enfrentar a epidemia da SIDA, desde julho de 2004. Realizou-se estudo caso-controlo não pareado, com dados colectados por entrevistas presenciais que não estavam disponíveis nas bases de dados existentes, comparando pacientes com diagnóstico tardio da infecção por VIH com aqueles com diagnóstico precoce da infecção por VIH. Foram analisadas as variáveis: características sociodemográficas e comportamentais. Utilizou-se análise univariada, bivariada e regressão logística binária, hierarquizada na análise multivariada, com odds ratio como medida de associação e intervalo de confiança de 95%. RESULTADOS: Na ilha de Santiago, 51,9 % dos individuos realizaram o diagnóstico tardiamente, com maior proporção de diagnóstico tardio em mulheres do que em homens (57,6 % vs 42,4 %). A população de 40 a 49 anos vem realizando exames tardiamente (34,5 %). No estudo caso-controlo não foram encontradas diferenças estatisticamente significativas na distribuição do sexo, estado civil e acesso aos serviços de saúde entre casos e controlos. CONCLUSÕES: O estudo indica necessidade de novas abordagens na prevenção e diagnóstico precoce para as populações de maior vulnerabilidade e a manutenção da oferta do teste de VIH.

OBJECTIVE: To provide an update to the original Surviving Sepsis Campaign clinical management guidelines, "Surviving Sepsis Campaign Guidelines for Management of Severe Sepsis and Septic Shock," published in 2004. DESIGN: Modified Delphi method with a consensus conference of 55 international experts, several subsequent meetings of subgroups and key individuals, teleconferences, and electronic-based discussion among subgroups and among the entire committee. This process was conducted independently of any industry funding. METHODS: We used the Grades of Recommendation, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) system to guide assessment of quality of evidence from high (A) to very low (D) and to determine the strength of recommendations. A strong recommendation (1) indicates that an intervention's desirable effects clearly outweigh its undesirable effects (risk, burden, cost) or clearly do not. Weak recommendations (2) indicate that the tradeoff between desirable and undesirable effects is less clear. The grade of strong or weak is considered of greater clinical importance than a difference in letter level of quality of evidence. In areas without complete agreement, a formal process of resolution was developed and applied. Recommendations are grouped into those directly targeting severe sepsis, recommendations targeting general care of the critically ill patient that are considered high priority in severe sepsis, and pediatric considerations. RESULTS: Key recommendations, listed by category, include early goal-directed resuscitation of the septic patient during the first 6 hrs after recognition (1C); blood cultures before antibiotic therapy (1C); imaging studies performed promptly to confirm potential source of infection (1C); administration of broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy within 1 hr of diagnosis of septic shock (1B) and severe sepsis without septic shock (1D); reassessment of antibiotic therapy with microbiology and clinical data to narrow coverage, when appropriate (1C); a usual 7-10 days of antibiotic therapy guided by clinical response (1D); source control with attention to the balance of risks and benefits of the chosen method (1C); administration of either crystalloid or colloid fluid resuscitation (1B); fluid challenge to restore mean circulating filling pressure (1C); reduction in rate of fluid administration with rising filing pressures and no improvement in tissue perfusion (1D); vasopressor preference for norepinephrine or dopamine to maintain an initial target of mean arterial pressure > or = 65 mm Hg (1C); dobutamine inotropic therapy when cardiac output remains low despite fluid resuscitation and combined inotropic/vasopressor therapy (1C); stress-dose steroid therapy given only in septic shock after blood pressure is identified to be poorly responsive to fluid and vasopressor therapy (2C); recombinant activated protein C in patients with severe sepsis and clinical assessment of high risk for death (2B except 2C for postoperative patients). In the absence of tissue hypoperfusion, coronary artery disease, or acute hemorrhage, target a hemoglobin of 7-9 g/dL (1B); a low tidal volume (1B) and limitation of inspiratory plateau pressure strategy (1C) for acute lung injury (ALI)/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS); application of at least a minimal amount of positive end-expiratory pressure in acute lung injury (1C); head of bed elevation in mechanically ventilated patients unless contraindicated (1B); avoiding routine use of pulmonary artery catheters in ALI/ARDS (1A); to decrease days of mechanical ventilation and ICU length of stay, a conservative fluid strategy for patients with established ALI/ARDS who are not in shock (1C); protocols for weaning and sedation/analgesia (1B); using either intermittent bolus sedation or continuous infusion sedation with daily interruptions or lightening (1B); avoidance of neuromuscular blockers, if at all possible (1B); institution of glycemic control (1B), targeting a blood glucose < 150 mg/dL after initial stabilization (2C); equivalency of continuous veno-veno hemofiltration or intermittent hemodialysis (2B); prophylaxis for deep vein thrombosis (1A); use of stress ulcer prophylaxis to prevent upper gastrointestinal bleeding using H2 blockers (1A) or proton pump inhibitors (1B); and consideration of limitation of support where appropriate (1D). Recommendations specific to pediatric severe sepsis include greater use of physical examination therapeutic end points (2C); dopamine as the first drug of choice for hypotension (2C); steroids only in children with suspected or proven adrenal insufficiency (2C); and a recommendation against the use of recombinant activated protein C in children (1B). CONCLUSIONS: There was strong agreement among a large cohort of international experts regarding many level 1 recommendations for the best current care of patients with severe sepsis. Evidenced-based recommendations regarding the acute management of sepsis and septic shock are the first step toward improved outcomes for this important group of critically ill patients.

Campaigns raise public interest in politics and allow parties to convey their messages to voters. However, voters' exposure and attention during campaigns are biased towards parties and candidates they like. This hinders parties' ability to reach new voters. This paper theorises and empirically tests a simple way in which parties can break partisan selective attention: owning an issue. When parties own issues that are important for a voter, that voter is more likely to notice them. Using survey data collected prior to the 2009 Belgian regional elections it is shown that this effect exists independent of partisan preferences and while controlling for the absolute visibility of a party in the media. This indicates that issue ownership has an independent impact on voters' attention to campaigns. This finding shows that owning salient issues yields (potential) advantages for parties, since getting noticed is a prerequisite for conveying electoral messages and increasing electoral success.
