IFTM campus Uberaba em face à sociedade digitalizada: uma proposta de desenvolvimento de um plano de comunicação digital

We live in recent years a complete change in technological paradigms and their influence of social and organizational relationship; therefore, it has a fundamental importance the entry of public institutions in digital ambience. This study has started on the need to know the current processes of communication of a federal institution in the city of Uberaba, namely the Federal Institute of Vocational and Technological Education, Campus Uberaba and from these processes to propose solutions in the area of digital communication. First, we did a survey of issues related to the digital area as Cyberspace; Cyberculture; Hypertextuality; Multimedia; Digital Media, as well as the aspects related to organizational communication and public communication. This is a research has a qualitative approach that allowed the realization and the application of questionnaires and interviews with the students, the teachers and the administrative technicians. Subsequently, we analyzed the data with trough selection and classification of categories of analysis according to Bardin's Content Analysis. After the evaluation of the answers we present the Digital Communication Plan with its communicational products and actions to achieve the goal of institutional strengthening IFTM brand and make the IFTM Campus Uberaba recognized institution in the city and region. This report and its product are based theoretically in Kunsch (2009), Duarte (2012), Bueno (2009), among others, whose thoughts on the changes introduced by technology and communication are used as support for the realization of interactive and intermediated strategies through a computer from a reference that signals to image and institutional identity concepts. This work also sought the interface between corporate communication, branding, digital marketing, cyberculture, public communication and technology.Dissertação (Mestrado)Vivenciamos nos últimos anos uma completa mudança nos paradigmas tecnológicos e a influência destes nas relações sociais e organizacionais, portanto, é de fundamental importância a inserção de instituições públicas na ambiência digital. Este estudo partiu da necessidade em conhecer os processos atuais de comunicação de uma Instituição Federal na cidade de Uberaba, a saber, o Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia do Triângulo Mineiro Campus Uberaba e, a partir destes processos propor soluções na área da Comunicação Digital. Primeiramente, fizemos um levantamento dos temas relacionados à área digital como Ciberespaço; Cibercultura; Hipertextualidade; Multimidialidade; Mídias Digitais, além de aspectos relacionados à Comunicação Organizacional e à Comunicação Pública. Trata-se de uma pesquisa com abordagem qualitativa que permitiu a realização e aplicação de questionários e entrevistas a estudantes, professores e técnicos. Posteriormente, fizemos a análise dos dados com a seleção e classificação das categorias de análise de acordo com a Análise de Conteúdo de Bardin (2006). Após a avaliação das respostas, apresentamos o Plano de Comunicação Digital com seus produtos comunicacionais e ações para atingir o objetivo institucional de fortalecer a marca IFTM e tornar o IFTM Campus Uberaba uma instituição reconhecida na cidade e região. Esse relatório e o produto dele originado ancoramse teoricamente em Kunsch (2009), Duarte (2012), Bueno (2009), entre outros, cujos pensamentos sobre as transformações introduzidas pela tecnologia e comunicação são utilizados como suporte para realização de estratégias interativas e intermediadas por meio de um computador a partir de um referencial que sinaliza para os conceitos de imagem e identidade institucionais. Nesse trabalho, buscou-se também a interface entre comunicação institucional, branding, marketing digital, cibercultura, comunicação pública e tecnologia

Intraoral Schwannomas: presentation of a series of 12 cases

Introduction: Schwannomas are benign and not very frequent tumors of the peripheral nerves, derived from the nerve supporting Schwann cells. Study Design: Data were collected on the clinical manifestations (sex, age), location, size and symptonts of the lesions as well as the evolution time and the initial (presumption) diagnosis. Results: Twelve patients were documented, with a mean age of 29,5 ± 12,1 years (range 16-50) and a balanced gender distribution. The mean duration of the lesions was 42,17± 45,3 months. The lesion located in the floor of the mouth was the largest tumor, measuring about 4 cm in maximum diameter, while the average size of the 12 schwannomas was 2.04± 1.1 cm. Conclusion: We present 12 oral schwannomas diagnosed and treated over a period of 10 years

From the Approach to the Concept: One Health in Latin America-Experiences and Perspectives in Brazil, Chile, and Colombia

Professionals throughout the world have been working to assess the interdisciplinary interaction and interdependence between health and wellbeing in a constantly changing environment. The One Health concept was developed to encourage sustainable collaborative partnerships and to promote optimal health for people, animals, plants, the environment, and the whole planet. The dissemination of scientific discoveries and policies, by working directly with diverse communities, has been one of the main goals for Global One Health. The One Health concept has also been referred or related to as "One Medicine, One Medicine-One Health, One World-One Health, EcoHealth," and Planetary Health," depending on each fundamental view and approach. In Latin America, despite the concept still being discussed among health professionals and educators, several One Health initiatives have been used daily for more than decades. One Health action has been applied especially in rural and underserved urban areas where low socioeconomic status, lack of health professionals, and scarcity of medical resources may require professionals to work together. Local communities from diverse social and economic statuses, including indigenous populations have been working with institutions and social organizations for many years, accomplishing results through grassroots movements. These "bottom-up" socio-community approaches have also been tools for the prevention and control of diseases, such practice has preceded the One Health concepts in Latin American countries. It is strongly believed that collaborative, multidisciplinary, political, and economic initiatives with prosocial focus may become investments toward obtaining significant results in the face of global, economic and health challenges; working for a healthier world with inclusivity, equity, and equality. In this study, it is briefly presented how the One Health approach has been initiated and developed in Latin America, highlighting the events and actions taken in Brazil, Chile, and Colombia

Pervasive gaps in Amazonian ecological research

Biodiversity loss is one of the main challenges of our time,1,2 and attempts to address it require a clear un derstanding of how ecological communities respond to environmental change across time and space.3,4 While the increasing availability of global databases on ecological communities has advanced our knowledge of biodiversity sensitivity to environmental changes,5–7 vast areas of the tropics remain understudied.8–11 In the American tropics, Amazonia stands out as the world’s most diverse rainforest and the primary source of Neotropical biodiversity,12 but it remains among the least known forests in America and is often underrepre sented in biodiversity databases.13–15 To worsen this situation, human-induced modifications16,17 may elim inate pieces of the Amazon’s biodiversity puzzle before we can use them to understand how ecological com munities are responding. To increase generalization and applicability of biodiversity knowledge,18,19 it is thus crucial to reduce biases in ecological research, particularly in regions projected to face the most pronounced environmental changes. We integrate ecological community metadata of 7,694 sampling sites for multiple or ganism groups in a machine learning model framework to map the research probability across the Brazilian Amazonia, while identifying the region’s vulnerability to environmental change. 15%–18% of the most ne glected areas in ecological research are expected to experience severe climate or land use changes by 2050. This means that unless we take immediate action, we will not be able to establish their current status, much less monitor how it is changing and what is being lostinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Biscoitos de polvilho azedo enriquecidos com fibras solúveis e insolúveis Fermented cassava starch biscuits enriched with soluble and insoluble fibers

O presente trabalho avaliou a utilização de farelo de trigo e polidextrose como fontes de fibra no enriquecimento de biscoitos de polvilho. Utilizou-se a Metodologia de Superfície de Resposta para verificar a influência da adição destes ingredientes nos parâmetros de qualidade dos biscoitos. As respostas avaliadas do planejamento experimental fatorial completo 2² foram o volume específico, a dureza instrumental, a umidade e a cor - parâmetros L, a* e b*. Para as respostas: volume específico e dureza instrumental, todos os fatores foram significativos, a 95% de confiança, com R² = 0,9307 e 0,8091, respectivamente. Pela análise das superfícies geradas, pode-se observar que o farelo de trigo e a polidextrose reduziram o volume específico e o farelo teve maior efeito no aumento da dureza. A substituição de polvilho azedo por farelo de trigo e polidextrose nas proporções de 1,5 e 5%, respectivamente, gerou uma amostra rica em fibras, com 6,23% de fibra alimentar (calculado teoricamente), sem prejuízo considerável para as características de expansão e dureza, e com boa aceitação sensorial.<br>This work evaluated the use of wheat bran and polidextrose as fiber sources to enrich fermented cassava starch biscuits. The Response Surface Methodology was used to verify the influence of the addition of these fiber sources on the quality parameters of the biscuits. The responses of the 2² central composite rotational experimental design that were evaluated were specific volume, hardness, and moisture and color - parameters L, a*, and b*. For the specific volume and hardness responses, all factors were significant: 95% confidence level, with R² of 0.9307 and 0.8091, respectively. Analyzing the surfaces obtained it could be observed that the wheat bran and polidextrose reduced the specific volume and the wheat bran had a greater effect in increasing hardness. The substitution of fermented cassava starch by wheat bran and polidextrose in proportions of 1.5 and 5%, respectively, produced a fiber-rich sample with 6.23% dietary fiber (calculated theoretically) without affecting the expansion and texture characteristics negatively and with a good sensory acceptance
