Artigo Científico Judicialização de tratamentos para o Transtorno do Espectro Autista no âmbito da saúde suplementar: Análise de sentenças proferidas pelo TJSP em 2023(2025) Oliveira, Bruno da Cunha de; Penha, Maria Sthefanny Cavalcante da; Rodrigues, Giulia Beatriz Brombine Alves; Püschel, Mariana Araujo; VANESSA BOARATIApesar da relevância econômica, jurídica e social do tema da judicialização de tratamentos para o Transtorno do Espectro Autista, o assunto ainda não foi abordado em profundidade pela literatura acadêmica. Para preencher essa lacuna, foi realizada a análise sistemática do conteúdo de uma amostra representativa de sentenças proferidas pelo TJSP em 2023. Nesse período, houve um predomínio de crianças bastante jovens entre os demandantes: a média de idade foi de cerca de seis anos e a mediana, de quatro anos e dez meses. Os principais tratamentos demandados foram consultas com fonoaudiólogos, terapeutas ocupacionais e psicólogos. Em 66% dos casos houve pedido por profissional que adotasse a técnica ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis). Os principais argumentos apresentados pelas operadoras de planos de saúde estão associados a discussões jurídicas sobre a existência de obrigação de cobertura dos tratamentos pleiteados. Já o principal argumento utilizado pelos magistrados foi o de que não caberia ao Judiciário nem à operadora revisar a prescrição feita pelo médico do paciente. Para fundamentar as suas decisões, os magistrados se ampararam principalmente na jurisprudência e nas súmulas do próprio TJSP, além do Código de Defesa do Consumidor. A taxa de sucesso total ou parcial dos pacientes foi de 92%.Artigo Científico Private ownership of water and wastewater systems: Assessing health impacts(2025) Chaves, Rodrigo França; ADRIANO BORGES FERREIRA DA COSTAThis study examines the impact of private ownership of water and wastewater systems on disease reduction linked to sanitation in Brazil from 1998 to 2021. It updates Saiani and de Azevedo (2018), which analyzed the period 1995–2008, by incorporating over a decade of additional data, key policy changes such as the 2020 Sanitation Law, and employing the Callaway–Sant’Anna Staggered DID methodology to address heterogeneity in treatment effects. Our findings reveal mixed results: while some municipalities achieved reductions in morbidity rates, others showed no change or increases, underscoring the context-dependent nature of privatization outcomes. A notable example is the case of Tocantins, where transitioning from a hybrid private-state model to full private ownership led to a significant decrease in disease morbidity, particularly among the most affected age groups. These advancements provide a robust, updated perspective on the privatization debate, offering valuable implications for policy and practice.Artigo Científico A systematic literature review of citizen science in urban studies and regional urban planning: policy, practical, and research implications(2025) Beck, Donizete; Mitkiewicz, JulianaCitizen Science (CS) has been useful in research development and policymaking, where laypeople contribute to collecting and/or analyzing data. With the technological advancement of smart cities and data analysis techniques, CS helps foster efficient/sustainable cities and data-driven decision-making. However, more effort is needed to make CS more accessible for urban scholars and practitioners. Thus, we provided a comprehensive overview of CS in Urban Studies and Regional Urban Planning (USRUP) by revealing the main thematic/method approaches, stakeholder roles, socioeconomic/environ mental/policy impacts, limitations, best practices, and cases. Thus, we performed a Systematic Literature Review on CS in USRUP using the PRISMA Guidelines of 94 studies collected from the Web of Science Core Collection, published by 2023. Our key findings underscore the practical uses of diverse methodologies and approaches employed in CS projects, emphasizing their potential to enhance urban research and policymaking. The core socioeconomic impacts of CS projects are fostering community empowerment, engagement, and educational opportunities. The main environmental impacts are enhancing monitoring capabilities, improving ecosystem service assessments, and supporting adaptive management practices. As for urban planning and policies, CS projects can foster data-driven planning, urban sustainability, urban resilience, healthier cities, and social equity. CS challenges include data quality and consistency, the digital divide, and the need for sustained funding. Best practices have included clear communication, standardized protocols, and strong community engagement. Further developments should involve citizens in more analytical roles (rather than merely instrumental ones, like data collection) in CS projects and explore CS in social urbanism for transforming vulnerable communities.Artigo Científico 1st Industrial Marketing Management (IMM) South America Summit (2nd - 4th October 2024)(2024) CARLA SOFIA DIAS MOREIRA RAMOS; DANNY PIMENTEL CLARO; Lindgreen, Adam; Benedetto, C.

Organizations are not alone, and managing stakeholders matters in strategic management. This encyclopedia entry aims: (1) to synthesize the theoretical thought behind the foundational publications; and (2) to introduce the main constructs, definitions, and approaches of Stakeholder Theory. In doing so, it explores the definition of stakeholder theory including; the normative, descriptive, and instrumental pillars; the convergent and divergent stakeholder theory debate; the difference between stakeholder issues and social issues; stakeholder salience (power, urgency, legitimacy, and proximity); mutual trust as instrumental value of ethical behavior; stakeholder influence strategies (withholding, usage, direct, and indirect); stakeholder value creation; and stakeholder capitalism.Artigo Científico Stakeholder Theory(2024) Beck, DonizeteStakeholder networks are an organizational and social phenomenon.

Method: This study performed a Sentiment Analysis of citizens' perception of 32 BTs of São Paulo, composed of 8,371 user comments on Google Maps. Originality/Relevance: This study highlights the role of Sentiment Analysis as an optimal tool for Stakeholder Analysis in the Urban Context. Findings: First, Sentiment Analysis is a valuable source for stakeholder oriented urban management. Second, sentiment Analysis provides detailed information about citizen satisfaction, providing valuable cues for urban managers to improve public service quality. Third, Smart Sustainable Cities can provide multiple and massive quantities of data that all kinds of urban stakeholders can use in decision-making processes, which helps perform Sentiment Analysis. Fourth, Sentiment Analysis is helpful for BT managers to improve BT services based on the users' feelings. Finally, further studies should explore sentiment classification in Sentiment Analysis of the critical aspects unfolded in this study as well as for exploring responsiveness of municipal public services. Methodological Contributions: This study demonstrated that Sentiment Analysis can be a method for scrutinizing stakeholders' opinions and perceptions about governmental services at the city level. Practitioner Contributions: Urban Planners, Transportation Policy Makers, and Urban Managers can use Sentiment Analysis to foster stakeholder-oriented management, which in turn fosters democracy and urban performance.Artigo Científico Economic Freedom and the Determinants of the Bank Spread in South America(2022) Maciel, Vladimir Fernandes; Gamboa, Ulisses Ruiz de; Alves, Rafael Estevão GarciaThis paper performs panel data analysis to test the existence of an inverse relationship between bank spreads and the degree of economic freedom in South American countries between 2000 and 2020. In the late 1990s, South America began a process of financial sector reforms, which included in almost all countries the liberalization of interest rates (instead of capping) and the elimination of direct credit allocation mechanisms. By hypothesis, it is expected that the greater the economic freedom, the lower the degree of financial regulation. This would reduce the transaction costs of financial institutions and contribute to reducing the banking spread (assuming constant credit risk). The traditional methodology is applied here, complemented by unit root and cointegration tests, in addition to impulse-response function analysis, in the context of panel autoregressive vectors (VAR). The results show that economic freedom and monetary credibility (component area of the EFW, Economic Freedom of the World index) negatively affect the value of the spread, with long-run effects as well.Artigo Científico Performance Measurement in a Brazilian Clinical Trials Unit(2021) Aquino, Thomaz Martins de; Bonizio, Roni Cleber; Padua, Silvia Ines Dallavalle de; Coelho, Eduardo Barbosa; Faustino, Gabriela GimenezBackground: There is growing interest on costs of clinical trials; critical topic for business decision making; therefore, the aim of this work is to identify how a successful Brazilian case measures its economic performance even with restriction regarding its accounting data. Methods: Single case qualitative method. Interviews with four people of different hierarchical levels and the analysis of the 2005 balance sheet, payrolls and payment slips were carried out. Results: Besides indicating how the clinical research unit of the case measures its results, a diagram of how other units and organizations could follow such procedure to carry out their own performance measurement was pointed out as well. Conclusion: The use of contribution margin and break-even point for the performance calculation benefited the managerial decision-making of the unit studied, serving as basis for its own strategy and use of its idleness. This is a reference model for decision-making of managers in other research units.Artigo Científico Agency Conflicts Between Controlling and Minority Shareholders in the Distribution of Dividends in Brazilian Companies(2022) Kuronuma, Cleiton Ricardo; Okimura, Rodrigo Takashi; Sale, George Andre WillrichObjective: This paper aims to investigate whether the dividend policy is influenced by the shareholding concentration of publicly traded companies in Brazil. Methodology: This research was elaborated through panel regression analysis empirical tests, considering the period from 2013 to 2016. Originality/ Relevance: In Brazil, shareholding is usually concentrated in a small number of shareholders. In this scenario, controlling shareholders often end up having a great influence on management. As a result, agency conflicts may arise (Dalmácio & Corrar, 2007), mainly because controlling shareholders, who have the right to vote, are not always the holders of the preferred shares, which also share dividends (Lopes & Walker, 2008). Thus, according to the Agency Theory, the possibility could be raised of the principal - the controlling shareholder aiming to maximize its individual utility (Martinez, 2001). Main Results: It was verified that there is a positive relationship between the shareholding concentration and the distribution of dividends, that is, the higher the shareholding concentration, the greater the dividend distribution. Contributions: For this research, it were used statistical tests utilizing the panel data regression technique and estimators of Weighted Least Square (WLS), in which were observed the results of the regressions of the total sample (1.440 observations) and four industry sectors, which showed evidence that, there is at least one variable with a statistically significant power (non-cyclical consumption, financial, health, and information technology).
