    Abstract O texto discute alguns eixos conceituais relevantes para a compreensão da obra de David Harvey, concentrando-se especificamente nas formulações do autor acerca da ideia de rearranjo espacial (spatial fix), de novo imperialismo (new imperialism) e de acumulação mediante despossessão (acumulation by dispossession). Objetiva-se lidar também com o que se seriam os componentes da teoria critica de Harvey. Além disso, apresenta-se como tais ideias e formulações não podem ser plenamente entendidas sem o seu enraizamento nas reflexões do autor acerca das cidades.

    Abstract Drought is often monitored through standardized indices. However, while enabling comparisons across different climatic regions, standardization poses an issue when using indices to assess future climate change impacts on drought, since they have a null average by definition. To address this issue, in this study we introduce a dynamic approach where future changes are assessed by computing climate normals using moving time windows. The approach is applied to Sicily and Calabria (Southern Italy) using the standardized precipitation index (SPI) and the standardized precipitation-evapotranspiration index (SPEI), and considering climate change scenarios RCP4.5 and RCP8.5. An optimized ensemble weighted average (OEWA) of climate models is introduced to reduce model biases. The results indicate that the region is likely to experience an increase in drought events due to climate change. The findings highlight the need for revised drought identification strategies that account for non-stationarity in climate.

    Abstract Selective logging is pervasive across the tropics and unsustainable logging depletes forest biodiversity and carbon stocks. Improving the sustainability of logging will be crucial for meeting climate targets. Carbon-based payment for ecosystem service schemes, including REDD+, give economic value to standing forests and can protect them from degradation, but only if the revenue from carbon payments is greater than the opportunity cost of forgone or reduced logging. We currently lack understanding of whether carbon payments are feasible for protecting Amazonian forests from logging, despite the Amazon holding the largest unexploited timber reserves and an expanding logging sector. Using financial data and inventories of >660,000 trees covering 52,000 ha of Brazilian forest concessions, we estimate the carbon price required to protect forests from logging. We estimate that a carbon price of $7.90 per tCO

    Abstract Background: During COVID-19 pandemic, a shortage of surgical masks (Mask) and respirators (Resp) was experienced worldwide. We aimed to assess its pattern of use, adverse effects and user errors by Portuguese health care professionals (HCP).
    Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted through snowball convenience sample, collected by email/ social media to health care organizations. Participants answered an online anonymous survey in March 2021.
    Results: Mean age of 3052 respondents was 42.1 years old, 83.6% were female and 77.8% provided direct health care to COVID-19 patients. Mean time of use per shift was 6-8 hours in 40.8% of the participants. 28.0% reported never changing it during their shift. Resp use (vs Mask) was more associated with discomfort (58.2% vs 26.8%), affecting task performance (41.5 vs 18.9%) and communication (55.0 vs 40.9%), dyspnea (36.0 vs 14.4%), skin rash (37.5 vs 19.4%) and headache (37.5 vs 19.4%). Frequent user errors included touching the front while in use (70.1% Mask vs 66.3% Resp) and omitting hand hygiene before (61.8% Mask vs 55.0% Resp) or after use (61.3% Mask vs 57.0% Resp). Average number of errors was higher for Mask (4.3), than for Resp (3.2) (all: P < .001).
    Conclusions: Most HCP admitted an extended use of Mask/ Resp. Resp were more prone to adverse effects and Mask more prone to errors. Strategies to reinforce good practices should be considered.

    Abstract Background: This study aimed to investigate the effect of metabolic syndrome (MetS) on tooth loss in adults from a population-based sample.
    Methods: Cross-sectional analysis based on data from a cohort study (2009 to 2014) with adults from Southern Brazil. MetS (exposure), lack of functional dentition and number of lost teeth (outcomes) were assessed using self-reported, laboratory and clinical data. Possible confounders included sex, age, family income, education level, smoking status, and sugar consumption. The effect of MetS on the outcomes was estimated using conventional logistic or negative binomial regression models. Marginal structural modeling (MSM) with stabilized weights (a counterfactual analytical method) was also used to enhance group comparability and estimate causal effects.
    Results: A total of 1,283 participants had available information for the outcomes. Individuals with MetS were more likely to experience a lack of functional dentition than those without MetS (odds ratio [OR] from logistic regression, 1.7; 95% CI, 1.0 to 2.9; OR from MSM, 3.2; 95% CI, 2.3 to 4.6). Moreover, the number of teeth lost was 20% higher in participants with MetS compared with those without MetS in conventional analysis (mean ratio [MR], 1.2; 95% CI, 1.1 to 1.3). The MR increased to 1.7 (95% CI, 1.5 to 2.0) when using MSM.
    Conclusion: Our findings provide evidence on the effect of MetS on tooth loss.
