13. What If the Forecaster Knew? Assessing Forecast Reliability via Simulation
ABSTRACT The FIFA Men’s World Cup (FWC) is the most important football (soccer) competition, attracting worldwide attention. A popular practice among football fans in Brazil is to organize contests in which each participant informs guesses on the final score of each match. The participants are then ranked according to some scoring rule. Inspired by these c

14. NA-NA, NA-NA, BOO-BOO, THE ACCURACY OF YOUR PHILOSOPHICAL BELIEFS IS DOO-DOO
Abstract The paper argues that adopting a form of skepticism, Skeptical-Dogmatism, that recommends disbelieving each philosophical position in many multi-proposition disputes- disputes where there are three or more contrary philosophical views-leads to a higher ratio of true to false beliefs than the ratio of the “average philosopher” (as indicated by su

15. Effectiveness of Mindfulness Meditation Programs in the Promotion of Quality of Life in Patients with Heart Failure: A Systematic Review
Abstract Background: Despite optimal medical treatment, many heart failure (HF) patients continue to show a high prevalence of symptoms, which contributes to a high morbidity and poor health-related quality of life (HRQL). Mindfulness meditation may be effective in improving the quality of life in these patients. Objective: A systematic review was conducte

18. LINGUISTIC MEANING MEETS LINGUISTIC FORM IN ACTION
Abstract In this paper we suggest that Duffley’s sign-based semantics rests on two main claims: a methodological one and an ontological one. The methodological one is the analysis of corpora and the ontological one is the postulate of mental content. By adopting a linguistic enactivist perspective with a Wittgensteinian twist, we endorse Duffley’s method

19. Aortic Valve Reconstruction with Ozaki Technique
Abstract Modern bioprostheses offer a complete and definitive solution to elderly patients who need aortic valve surgery. Nonetheless, the scenario is more demanding when dealing with younger and less fragile patients. In this setting, any prosthetic aortic valve replacement can provide only a suboptimal solution and its related issues have not been fixed ye

21. Anesthesiologists’ perception on their residency training
Abstract Background: Self-regulated professions such as medicine are characterized by professional commitment to the public they serve and require life-long development of expected skills. There is a paucity of data regarding quality of training during residency in anesthesiology. The objective of this study was to create an instrument to assess the anesthe

22. The Effect of Hemodynamic Parameters on Cerebral Oxygenization During Carotid Endarterectomy
Abstract Objective/Introduction: Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a non-invasive technique to detect cerebral ischemia by monitoring changes in regional cerebral oxygenation (rSO2) in the frontal lobes. However, there are no studies showing the changes in NIRS values in response to hemodynamic variations during stages of carotid endarterectomy (CEA) pro

23. COULD SIGN-BASED SEMANTICS AND EMBODIED SEMANTICS BENEFIT ONE ANOTHER?
Abstract I argue that Duffley’s sign-based semantics and embodied semantics may be mutually beneficial if we conceive them as a semantic theory and as a foundational theory, respectively. First, I describe embodied semantics as a research program that conceives the foundations of meaning in terms of embodied simulation. Afterwards, I draw attention to thre

24. A note on inattention: Evidence from library services in São Paulo
Abstract This note provides evidence on inattention in an information commons. Employing a large dataset compiling daily transactions in libraries, we compare a specific compliance behavior of library users over weekdays. If inattention affects rule compliance, then one would plausibly expect greater return delays in periods of potentially higher inattention
