Arte, Cultura, Informação: diversidade e representatividade nas práticas culturais institucionais

Abstract: This article presents a master's and a doctoral research on the practices and actions of contemporary cultural institutions in São Paulo, which articulate the concepts of diversity and representativeness, understood in their policies of identity and affirmation of differences. Seeking to contextualize the transformations that provided the opening of "formal institutions" to the knowledge of historically subordinated groups, the projects seek to discuss some cases, such as the Pinacoteca do Estado de São Paulo and the Casa do Povo, as well as problematize ideas of contemporary thinkers on institutions, arts and culture in the face of demands from different social groups. Keywords: Cultural institutions. Representativeness. Cultural diversity. Cultural policy. Cultural practices.Resumo: São apresentadas duas pesquisas, de mestrado e doutorado, sobre as práticas e ações de instituições culturais contemporâneas, de São Paulo, que articulam as concepções de diversidade e representatividade, compreendidas em suas políticas de identidade e afirmação das diferenças. Procurando contextualizar as transformações que proporcionaram a abertura de “instituições formais” aos saberes de grupos historicamente subalternizados,  os projetos procuram discutir alguns casos, como o da Pinacoteca do Estado de São Paulo e o da Casa do Povo, assim como problematizar ideias de pensadores contemporâneos sobre as instituições, as artes e a cultura diante das reivindicações dos diferentes grupos sociais.   Palavras-chaves: Instituições culturais.

Uberaba, MG, BrasilThe diagnosis of Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum infection in children from birth may serve as a reference for the early identification of cases that would progress to classical visceral leishmaniasis (VL) in endemic areas. This study prospectively evaluated newborns of mothers living in the municipality of Paracatu, Minas Gerais, Brazil. The infants were followed up at 6-month intervals by clinical examination, serological tests (immunofluorescence [IIF] and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay with rK39 [ELISA-rK39]) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) until they had completed 18 months of age. A total of 166 pregnant women were included to evaluate the possible transfer of antibodies or even congenital transmission. Twenty-two of the women tested positive by IIF, four by ELISA-rK39, and one by PCR. Three infants of the 25 women with some positive test results were also positive in the first test (one by IIF, one by ELISA-rK39, and the third by ELISA-rK39 and PCR). One hundred and sixty infants were included in the study; of these, 43 had at least one positive sample over time. However, agreement between tests was low. Follow-up of children with a positive result in the tests studied revealed no progression to classical disease within a period of 18 months. In contrast, two children with negative IIF, PCR, and ELISA-rK39 results developed classical VL at 9 and 12 months of age. In conclusion, a positive test result was variable and sometimes temporary and agreement between tests was low. Therefore, the early diagnosis of Leishmania infection was not associated with the early identification of cases that would progress to classical VL in the endemic area studied

Neotropical freshwater fisheries : A dataset of occurrence and abundance of freshwater fishes in the Neotropics

The Neotropical region hosts 4225 freshwater fish species, ranking first among the world's most diverse regions for freshwater fishes. Our NEOTROPICAL FRESHWATER FISHES data set is the first to produce a large-scale Neotropical freshwater fish inventory, covering the entire Neotropical region from Mexico and the Caribbean in the north to the southern limits in Argentina, Paraguay, Chile, and Uruguay. We compiled 185,787 distribution records, with unique georeferenced coordinates, for the 4225 species, represented by occurrence and abundance data. The number of species for the most numerous orders are as follows: Characiformes (1289), Siluriformes (1384), Cichliformes (354), Cyprinodontiformes (245), and Gymnotiformes (135). The most recorded species was the characid Astyanax fasciatus (4696 records). We registered 116,802 distribution records for native species, compared to 1802 distribution records for nonnative species. The main aim of the NEOTROPICAL FRESHWATER FISHES data set was to make these occurrence and abundance data accessible for international researchers to develop ecological and macroecological studies, from local to regional scales, with focal fish species, families, or orders. We anticipate that the NEOTROPICAL FRESHWATER FISHES data set will be valuable for studies on a wide range of ecological processes, such as trophic cascades, fishery pressure, the effects of habitat loss and fragmentation, and the impacts of species invasion and climate change.
