Summary Introduction: Cancer has now become part of the agenda of health managers, prompting them to consider new models of system organization. Objective: To study the cancer care network of the Brazilian public health system (SUS, in the Portuguese acronym) in the state of São Paulo by analyzing the structure of the installed and enabled network for treatment and its characteristics. Method: A single, integrated case study. We used secondary data from the following sources: Datasus, Inca, RHC and CNES, and primary data from official documents from the Reference Committee on Oncology of the State of Sao Paulo. We used the official guidelines to able services from the National Health Department to make comparison. Results: According to the CNES, in April, 2013 there were 72 cancer care services authorized by SUS in the state of Sao Paulo. Using the population criterion, the state had one service enabled for every 581,961 inhabitants, in an unequal distribution throughout the 17 health care regions. In terms of available structure and services, 80% of the hospitals were compliant for cancer surgery, 31% for chemotherapy and 74% for radiotherapy. In terms of minimum production, only 13% of hospitals were compliant with cancer surgery, 42% with chemotherapy and 14% with radiotherapy. Conclusion: The installed network proved to have sufficient size and structure to meet the demand from new cancer cases. However, there were both regional differences, as well as a wide variation in productivity between services, which probably had an impact on patient access.

In Brazil, formal wholesale trade of floriculture products is concentrated in the state of São Paulo, which represents 90% of the national market. Through the most diverse sales systems, wholesale trade of flowers and ornamental plants is in expansion and is carried out both in supply centers and sales centers. The aim of this study is to present the characteristics, dynamics, and history of trade in the main flower and ornamental plant wholesale markets in Brazil. To analyze these markets, we collected primary data provided by the wholesale markets themselves and secondary data obtained from bibliographic research. The wholesale flower and ornamental plant market in Brazil is concentrated in the state of São Paulo, although there are supply centers in other states. This market is mainly formed by Veiling Holambra, CEASA/Campinas, CEAGESP-ETSP, and Cooperflora/Floranet, with transactions of more than R$ 732 million/year, and 48.77% of this amount is through Veiling Holambra.

AbstractWe aimed to estimate the occurrence of syphilis in pregnant women (SPW) and congenital syphilis (CS) in the municipalities of the state of São Paulo (SP) and evaluate their relationship with socioeconomic, demographic, and health care variables. We developed an ecological study based on secondary data of SPW and CS with spatiotemporal components from 645 municipalities in SP including data from 2007 to 2018. We modeled the data in a Bayesian context, considered spatial and temporal random effects, and used binomial negative probability distributions. We found a continuous increase in the relative temporal risk of SPW, from 2007 to 2018, and CS, from 2007 to 2017, when their incidences increased by 8.6 and 6.6 times, respectively. This increase occurred en bloc in practically all municipalities of SP. The increase in SPW was associated with teenage pregnancy, municipalities with a large number of inhabitants, and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) incidence. The increase in CS was associated with municipalities with a large number of inhabitants, incomplete antenatal care, and AIDS incidence. Although actions to control these diseases are required in all municipalities of SP, the identification of high-risk areas points to priority regions for development.

Abstract In this paper, we analyze secondary data from surveys focusing on climate change and adaptation in Sao Paulo municipalities. The survey was completed by municipal actors who work in 332 of the 645 municipalities in the State. In this paper, we use a theoretical framework on urban climate governance, which highlights the role that local governments play in proposing strategies to deal with climate change, to present and discuss data related to: 1) the occurrence of extreme climatic events in these municipalities; 2) the impacts of these events; 3) local government actors’ perception about climate change; and 4) local actions and responses. Our analysis of these data significantly contributes to better understanding how cities in the most populous and economically developed state in Brazil perceive, respond and deal with climate change and what critical challenges hamper climate adaptation in these cities.

Abstract Court caseload management is of key importance for guaranteeing the adjudication of cases and depends on how judges and administrative assistants deal with their workload. Results from several studies indicate that an increase in court caseload tends to generate an increase in the judge’s production. However, some authors argue that this relationship is far more complex. To develop a fuller understanding of this relationship we tested an array of direct and moderating hypotheses. We used secondary data from 566 judges working in first trial courts in the State Justice System of Sao Paulo, Brazil. The results indicate a direct and positive relationship between court caseload and judge production, but the strength of this relationship depends on court specialty. The findings also indicate that the number of administrative assistants, judge experience and the number of places a judge works all moderate the caseload-production relationship. The results contribute to the development of strategies to address the delays and congestion of courts, two of the main Brazilian Judiciary problems.

The objective of this study is to compile the inventory of nearly 100 years of research about the phytoplankton species cited for the coast of the state of São Paulo, Brazil. A state-of-the-art study on the local biodiversity has long been needed to provide a baseline for future comparisons. This type of data is scattered in old scientific journals and in the so-called "grey literature", and are in need of nomenclature updating. Twenty-six publications are considered. The earliest sampling record is from 1913 (?) and the most recent from 2002. This checklist compiled from the literature was complemented with primary data collected between August 2004 and July 2006, recent surveys of the surf-zone of 20 beaches located along the coast and of a mariculture farm at the Cocanha Beach, Caraguatatuba. The complete species list includes 572 taxa: most are diatoms (82%), seconded by dinoflagellates (16%), with a minor contribution of silicoflagellates, coccolithophorids, ebriideans and cyanobacteria. The most investigated areas were: Ubatuba, São Sebastião, Santos and Cananéia. The recent surveys have a broader spatial coverage. The objectives of the studies have changed over the years from purely taxonomic to process-oriented investigations. Therefore, the longest species lists and most first records for the area were published before the 1980's and later publications, even those in which cell counts were performed, mention only the most abundant/frequent species. Electron microscopy was used for the first time in the present surveys, and new records include 38 diatoms, 42 dinoflagellates, 1 silicoflagellate, 1 ebriidean and 2 cyanobacteria. The use and interpretation of this species list require the perception of some constraints. It is not our role to question the identification made by other researchers. On the other hand, the ability to sample, analyze and identify species has evolved over the years and some considerations in this regard are presented.

The aim of this study is to identify the strategic groups formed by Institutions that run undergraduate courses in Business Administration in the city of So Paulo, Brazil. This is an exploratory research, since there are no hypotheses to test, but it is also descriptive because it describes strategic groupings. Primary data were gathered directly in the Institutions studied and secondary data were obtained from the Ministry of Education (MEC). The regulatory variables used incorporate coercive institutional isomorphic dimensions. The findings corroborated the use of that instrument with those regulatory variables, as it improves the structural analysis of the sector, and could serve as a reference for studies on other sectors which are subject to regulatory forces similar to those explicitly found in third level Education.

ResumoO presente trabalho tem como objetivo compreender as formações socioeconômicas de Frutal (MG) e Ituiutaba (MG) que levam a entender as relações estabelecidas na atualidade por meio da análise da centralidade urbana no contexto do Pontal do Triângulo Mineiro. Os passos metodológicos permitiram atingir o objetivo estabelecido, haja vista que eles perpassaram pelo levantamento teórico composto por dados secundários e dados primários em campo e nas secretarias municipais. Desse modo, foi possível entender as distinções e similaridades entre os dois municípios, identificando a dinâmica da região do Triângulo Mineiro (MG). Na atualidade, as rodovias, a polarização e os fluxos identificam as relações estabelecidas com suas hinterlândias, sendo que essas estão ligadas às categorias de análises, sobretudo, às do setor da saúde e do ensino superior devido as suas complexidades em relação às cidades do entorno. Desse modo, as microrregiões de Frutal (MG) e Ituiutaba (MG) apresentam algumas ligações, que se tornam mais restritas ao se avaliar os municípios sedes. Há a presença de duas ilhas: Frutal (MG), que estabelece relações com o estado de São Paulo e com as cidades de Uberlândia (MG) e Uberaba (MG), e Ituiutaba (MG), que se relaciona com as cidades de sua microrregião.Palavras-chave: Centralidade urbana. Frutal (MG). Ituiutaba (MG).   AbstractThis study aims to understand the socioeconomic formations from Frutal (MG) and Ituiutaba (MG) that lead to understand the relationships established nowadays through the analysis of urban centrality in the context of Pontal do Triângulo Mineiro. The methodological steps enable to achieve the stated goal, considering that they pass by theoretical research, secondary data and primary data in the field and in the Municipal Office. Thereby, it was possible to understand the distinctions and similarities between the two cities, identifying the dynamics of Triângulo Mineiro (MG). Currently, highways, the polarization and flows identify the relationships between their hinterlands, and these are connected to the analysis categories, especially those from the health sector and higher education due to their complexities in relation to the surrounding cities. Thus, the micro-regions of Frutal (MG) and Ituiutaba (MG) have small links, the ones that become more restricted when evaluating the headquarters municipalities. There are two islands: Frutal (MG) establishing relations with the state of São Paulo and with the cities Uberlândia (MG) and Uberaba (MG), and Ituiutaba (MG), that relates to the cities of its micro region.Keywords: Urban centrality, Frutal (MG), Ituiutaba (MG).   ResumenEste estudio tiene como objetivo comprender las formaciones socioeconómicas de Frutal (MG) y Ituiutaba (MG) que llevan a comprender las relaciones que se establecen hoy en día através del análisis de centralidad urbana en el contexto de Pontal do Triângulo Mineiro. Los pasos metodológicos posibilitaron alcanzar el objetivo fijado, dado que envolvieron investigación teórica hecha con datos secundarios y datos primarios recogidos en campo y en las oficinas municipales. Por lo tanto, fue posible entender las diferencias y similitudes entre los dos municipios que identifican la dinámica de la región Triangulo Mineiro (MG). Actualmente, las carreteras, la polarización y los flujos identifican las relaciones que se establecen con sus zonas de influencia, y estos están conectados con las categorías de análisis, sobre todo, al sector de la salud y la educación superior debido a sus complejidades en relación a las ciudades de los alrededores. Así, las microrregiones Frutal (MG) y Ituiutaba (MG) tienen algunas conexiones, las que se vuelven más estrictas al evaluar los municipios sede. Nos quedamos con la presencia de dos islas: Frutal (MG), con relaciones con el Estado de São Paulo y las ciudades de Uberlandia (MG) y Uberaba (MG), y Ituiutaba (MG), que se refiere a las ciudades de su microrregión.Palabras clave: Centralización urbano. Frutal (MG). Ituiutaba (MG).

The almost instantaneous access to information provided by technological advances has revolutionized the behavior of people and of the classrooms too. Teachers had to adapt themselves to new technologies to maintain students interested and attentive to the discipline being taught. In this work, the behavior of the students of the 6th grade of elementary school II during class was observed. The school chosen is a public school in the State of São Paulo (Brazil). The research was based on data collection. The students were observed by being filmed during six months. The results showed that the students were interested in the classes and committed to the activities. The place that the student chooses to sit in the classroom influences the behavior of the teacher, because the more distant the teacher, the less he participates in the class.
