TCC (graduação) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro Tecnológico, Sistemas de Informação.A adoção de tecnologia pelas organizações modernas é generalizada e abrange diversas áreas, desde a tomada de decisão estratégica até o nível operacional. Um dos resultados desse grande consumo de tecnologia, é seu impacto no meio ambiente, que inclui o abuso e a devastação dos recursos naturais. Diante da importância do assunto e as preocupações acerca disso, faz-se relevante aos profissionais debaterem sobre o tema. Dessa maneira, esse estudo tem como objetivo analisar o quanto as organizações de Florianópolis estão comprometidas com as práticas de TI Verde. Para alcançar tal objetivo, será aplicado nas instituições um questionário anônimo com a intenção de fazer o levantamento dos dados, posteriormente, será realizada uma análise qualitativa para saber se as mesmas possuem práticas de comportamento que contribuem com o meio ambiente

AVALIAÇÃO DO PERFIL DE VELOCIDADE E GRADIENTE DE PRESSÃO DO SEPARADOR SÓLIDO-LÍQUIDO APLICADO À INDÚSTRIA SUCROALCOOLEIRA

Este trabalho faz parte de um projeto de pesquisa chamado de “Separador sólido-líquido para remoção de particulados aplicado a indústria sucroalcooleira”. Este projeto consiste no estudo de simulação, desenvolvimento e ensaio experimental de um protótipo (piloto) de um separador sólido-líquido hidrociclone para remoção de particulados do caldo de cana, visando suprimir a etapa de lavagem da cana (que precede a moagem). Tal processo visa reduzir o consumo de recursos hídricos e a redução do desgaste dos equipamentos por abrasão e consequente redução da necessidade e custo de manutenção de válvulas, bombas e demais acessórios das tubulações. Especificamente, este trabalho foca na simulação computacional utilizando o software ANSYS CFD a fim de analisar o perfil de velocidade e gradiente de pressão interna do separador hidrocilone. Os resultados apontam que, para os materiais disponíveis na biblioteca, o diâmetro do particulado e a viscosidade dinâmica pouco alteram a eficiência do separador.PALAVRAS-CHAVE: separador sólido-líquido; ANSYS CFD; simulação computacional; caldo de cana de açúcar; indústria sucroalcooleira

Dolabelladienols A–C, New Diterpenes Isolated from Brazilian Brown Alga Dictyota pfaffii

[Abstract:]The marine brown alga Dictyota pfaffii from Atol das Rocas, in Northeast Brazil is a rich source of dolabellane diterpene, which has the potential to be used in future antiviral drugs by inhibiting reverse transcriptase (RT) of HIV-1. Reexamination of the minor diterpene constituents yielded three new dolabellane diterpenes, (1R*,2E,4R*,7S,10S*,11S*,12R*)10,18-diacetoxy-7-hydroxy-2,8(17)-dolabelladiene (1), (1R*,2E,4R*,7R*,10S*,11S*,12R*)10,18-diacetoxy-7-hydroxy-2,8(17)-dolabelladiene (2), (1R*,2E,4R*,8E,10S*,11S,12R*)10,18-diacetoxy-7-hydroxy-2,8-dolabelladiene (3), termed dolabelladienols A–C (1–3) respectively, in addition to the known dolabellane diterpenes (4–6). The elucidation of the compounds 1–3 was assigned by 1D and 2D NMR, MS, optical rotation and molecular modeling, along with the relative configuration of compound 4 and the absolute configuration of 5 by X-ray diffraction. The potent anti-HIV-1 activities displayed by compounds 1 and 2 (IC50 = 2.9 and 4.1 μM), which were more active than even the known dolabelladienetriol 4, and the low cytotoxic activity against MT-2 lymphocyte tumor cells indicated that these compounds are promising anti-HIV-1 agents.Brasil.

Projeto Carroceiro FZEA-USP

The Cart Horse Project, created and organized by professor Renata Gebara Sampaio Dória (DVM, MSc, PhD), started its activities in 2011. Since then, it has been contributing to several families from Pirassununga and nearby cities that cannot afford veterinary care to their animals. The project aims to provide substantial knowledge and awareness on zoonosis, public health, handling and animal welfare and health of the owners of traction horses used as a worker for these families. Besides promoting health and welfare of these animals, as well as raising awareness on the owners, the project also benefits the Veterinary Medicine students of Faculty of Animal Husbandry and Food Engineering of University of São Paulo (FZEA-USP) in order to develop and improve their clinical and surgical abilities on equine medicine, complementing their professional education.O projeto Carroceiro, coordenado e idealizado pela Profa. Dra. Renata Gebara Sampaio Dória, iniciou suas atividades no ano de 2011 e, desde então, vem contribuindo com muitas famílias de Pirassununga e região que utilizam equídeos para tração e não possuem condições financeiras para fornecer a seus animais uma assistência médica veterinária. O trabalho objetiva a conscientização dos proprietários dos equídeos utilizados em carroças (carroceiros) sobre: zoonoses, saúde pública, manejo, bem-estar e promoção da saúde desses animais, que são utilizados para tração como fonte de subsistência por muitas famílias. Além de promover a saúde e bem-estar dos animais, bem como a conscientização dos carroceiros, o projeto auxilia os estudantes de Medicina Veterinária da Faculdade de Zootecnia e Engenharia de Alimentos da Universidade de São Paulo (FZEA-USP) a desenvolver e aprimorar suas habilidades clínico-cirúrgicas no tratamento de equídeos, complementando a formação profissional

Testing a global standard for quantifying species recovery and assessing conservation impact.

Recognizing the imperative to evaluate species recovery and conservation impact, in 2012 the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) called for development of a "Green List of Species" (now the IUCN Green Status of Species). A draft Green Status framework for assessing species' progress toward recovery, published in 2018, proposed 2 separate but interlinked components: a standardized method (i.e., measurement against benchmarks of species' viability, functionality, and preimpact distribution) to determine current species recovery status (herein species recovery score) and application of that method to estimate past and potential future impacts of conservation based on 4 metrics (conservation legacy, conservation dependence, conservation gain, and recovery potential). We tested the framework with 181 species representing diverse taxa, life histories, biomes, and IUCN Red List categories (extinction risk). Based on the observed distribution of species' recovery scores, we propose the following species recovery categories: fully recovered, slightly depleted, moderately depleted, largely depleted, critically depleted, extinct in the wild, and indeterminate. Fifty-nine percent of tested species were considered largely or critically depleted. Although there was a negative relationship between extinction risk and species recovery score, variation was considerable. Some species in lower risk categories were assessed as farther from recovery than those at higher risk. This emphasizes that species recovery is conceptually different from extinction risk and reinforces the utility of the IUCN Green Status of Species to more fully understand species conservation status. Although extinction risk did not predict conservation legacy, conservation dependence, or conservation gain, it was positively correlated with recovery potential. Only 1.7% of tested species were categorized as zero across all 4 of these conservation impact metrics, indicating that conservation has, or will, play a role in improving or maintaining species status for the vast majority of these species. Based on our results, we devised an updated assessment framework that introduces the option of using a dynamic baseline to assess future impacts of conservation over the short term to avoid misleading results which were generated in a small number of cases, and redefines short term as 10 years to better align with conservation planning. These changes are reflected in the IUCN Green Status of Species Standard

Mortality from gastrointestinal congenital anomalies at 264 hospitals in 74 low-income, middle-income, and high-income countries: a multicentre, international, prospective cohort study

Summary Background Congenital anomalies are the fifth leading cause of mortality in children younger than 5 years globally. Many gastrointestinal congenital anomalies are fatal without timely access to neonatal surgical care, but few studies have been done on these conditions in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs). We compared outcomes of the seven most common gastrointestinal congenital anomalies in low-income, middle-income, and high-income countries globally, and identified factors associated with mortality. Methods We did a multicentre, international prospective cohort study of patients younger than 16 years, presenting to hospital for the first time with oesophageal atresia, congenital diaphragmatic hernia, intestinal atresia, gastroschisis, exomphalos, anorectal malformation, and Hirschsprung’s disease. Recruitment was of consecutive patients for a minimum of 1 month between October, 2018, and April, 2019. We collected data on patient demographics, clinical status, interventions, and outcomes using the REDCap platform. Patients were followed up for 30 days after primary intervention, or 30 days after admission if they did not receive an intervention. The primary outcome was all-cause, in-hospital mortality for all conditions combined and each condition individually, stratified by country income status. We did a complete case analysis. Findings We included 3849 patients with 3975 study conditions (560 with oesophageal atresia, 448 with congenital diaphragmatic hernia, 681 with intestinal atresia, 453 with gastroschisis, 325 with exomphalos, 991 with anorectal malformation, and 517 with Hirschsprung’s disease) from 264 hospitals (89 in high-income countries, 166 in middleincome countries, and nine in low-income countries) in 74 countries. Of the 3849 patients, 2231 (58·0%) were male. Median gestational age at birth was 38 weeks (IQR 36–39) and median bodyweight at presentation was 2·8 kg (2·3–3·3). Mortality among all patients was 37 (39·8%) of 93 in low-income countries, 583 (20·4%) of 2860 in middle-income countries, and 50 (5·6%) of 896 in high-income countries (p<0·0001 between all country income groups). Gastroschisis had the greatest difference in mortality between country income strata (nine [90·0%] of ten in lowincome countries, 97 [31·9%] of 304 in middle-income countries, and two [1·4%] of 139 in high-income countries; p≤0·0001 between all country income groups). Factors significantly associated with higher mortality for all patients combined included country income status (low-income vs high-income countries, risk ratio 2·78 [95% CI 1·88–4·11], p<0·0001; middle-income vs high-income countries, 2·11 [1·59–2·79], p<0·0001), sepsis at presentation (1·20 [1·04–1·40], p=0·016), higher American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score at primary intervention (ASA 4–5 vs ASA 1–2, 1·82 [1·40–2·35], p<0·0001; ASA 3 vs ASA 1–2, 1·58, [1·30–1·92], p<0·0001]), surgical safety checklist not used (1·39 [1·02–1·90], p=0·035), and ventilation or parenteral nutrition unavailable when needed (ventilation 1·96, [1·41–2·71], p=0·0001; parenteral nutrition 1·35, [1·05–1·74], p=0·018). Administration of parenteral nutrition (0·61, [0·47–0·79], p=0·0002) and use of a peripherally inserted central catheter (0·65 [0·50–0·86], p=0·0024) or percutaneous central line (0·69 [0·48–1·00], p=0·049) were associated with lower mortality. Interpretation Unacceptable differences in mortality exist for gastrointestinal congenital anomalies between lowincome, middle-income, and high-income countries. Improving access to quality neonatal surgical care in LMICs will be vital to achieve Sustainable Development Goal 3.2 of ending preventable deaths in neonates and children younger than 5 years by 2030
