    Acute toxicity is usually defined as adverse changes occurring immediately or a short time after the start of oncological treatment. Cross-sectional retrospective study performed with head and neck cancer patients who underwent radiotherapy from 2013 to 2016. Ten (1.2%) patients developed SOMs during radiotherapy, most (80%) of which were men with a mean age of 59.5 years at diagnosis. SOMs mainly affected the floor of the mouth (60%) between the fourth and the sixth weeks of radiation therapy. All lesions were asymptomatic and spontaneously ruptured approximately 9 days after diagnosis. Although rare, SOMs may be regarded as an acute oral toxicity of head and neck radiotherapy

    Among the waste generated by retail, the plastic bag, which has its main use for the transportation of products, is a constant component of household waste and negatively impacts the environment. In this context, Municipal Law 15,374 prohibited the free distribution of plastic bags in the city of São Paulo / Brazil, as of April 2015, and brought as an alternative the use of returnable bags and biodegradable bags in an attempt to reduce environmental impact caused by improper disposal of the plastic. Therefore, the purpose of this research was to analyze the impact of said Law on the reduction of the purchase of plastic bags made by the grocery retail in the city of São Paulo. A survey was conducted with data from two grocery retail stores in the city of São Paulo, between January and December 2015. The results showed that the implementation of the law reduced the volume of plastic bags provided by supermarkets without compromising the flow of people and financial income

    Studies on species of the family Myrtaceae are mostly related to floristic surveys, reproduction involving large plant communities, and family taxonomy. Thus, the objective of this study was to elucidate aspects of the floral and reproductive biology, as well as floral visitors of ubajai (Eugenia myrcianthes Nied.). Studies were conducted on floral morphology and morphometry, identification of nectaries and structures attractive to floral visitors, characterization of floral visitors, stigma receptivity, and androecium maturation, pollen storage, in vitro viability testing, and characterization of the reproductive system. Ubajai flowers open at approximately 6:00 a.m., and their anthers are the main attractive structure to floral visitors. The main floral visitors and effective pollinators of ubajai are honeybees (Apis mellifera). The addition of 40% sucrose to the culture medium, using fresh pre-anthesis pollen, allows for a 90% germination rate. Ubajai pollen is recalcitrant, thus, it loses viability before 30 days of storage, even when stored in a refrigerator, freezer, liquid nitrogen, or natural environment. Ubajai can be considered a self-compatible plant; however, fertilization of flowers through cross-pollination also occurs, and apomixis does not occur.Studies on species of the family Myrtaceae are mostly related to floristic surveys, reproduction involving large plant communities, and family taxonomy.

    The objective of this work was to evaluate different species of Myrtaceae as rootstock for jabuticabeira grafts, as well as the use of two grafting techniques, in order to search for alternatives for the vegetative propagation of this species. In order to carry out the experiment, the graft compatibility between jabuticabeira açú (a single adult plant) on jabuticabeira, guabijuzeiro, peach tree in the bush and guava tree was tested, being about one year old and 6 mm in diameter. The experimental design was completely randomized, in a 2 x 4 factorial scheme (grafting technique x rootstock species), with three replications, and eight grafts per experimental unit. How to cultivate canopy was used mature branches, with semilenous consistency, diameter around 6 mm and length of 10 cm, containing approximately 6 buds. The grafting process was performed in a full slit and in omega, in addition to the use of 'Buddy Tape' grafting tape to fix and seal the site. Afterwards, they were kept in a greenhouse with a relative humidity above 85% and a controlled temperature of 25°C. The evaluation was performed at 120 days after grafting, where the percentage of survival, number of shoots, length of shoots and number of leaves were evaluated. Grafting of jabuticabeira is not recommended using rootstocks of jabuticabeira, guabijuzeiro, peach bush, bush cherry tree and guava tree.O objetivo do trabalho foi avaliar diferentes espécies de Myrtaceae como porta-enxertos para enxertos de jabuticabeira, bem como a utilização de duas técnicas de garfagem, visando à busca de alternativas para a propagação vegetativa desta espécie. Para a realização do experimento foi testada a compatibilidade de enxertia entre a jabuticabeira açú (uma única planta adulta) sobre jabuticabeira, guabijuzeiro, pessegueiro do mato e goiabeira, com cerca de um ano de idade e 6 mm de diâmetro. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi inteiramente casualizado, em esquema fatorial 2 x 4 (técnica de enxertia de garfagem x espécie de porta-enxerto), com três repetições, e 8 enxertos por unidade experimental. Como cultivar copa foram utilizados ramos maduros, com consistência semilenhosa, diâmetro em torno de 6 mm e comprimento de 10 cm, contendo aproximadamente 6 gemas. O processo da enxertia foi realizado em fenda cheia e em ômega, além do uso de fita de enxertia ‘Buddy Tape’ para a fixação e vedação do local. Após, as mesmas foram mantidas em casa de vegetação climatizada, com umidade relativa superior a 85% e temperatura controlada de 25°C. A avaliação foi realizada aos 120 dias após a enxertia, onde foram avaliados o percentual de sobrevivência, número de brotações, comprimento das brotações e número de folhas. Não é recomendado a enxertia de jabuticabeira utilizando os porta-enxertos de jabuticabeira, guabijuzeiro, pessegueiro do mato, cerejeira da mata e goiabeira.El objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar diferentes especies de Myrtaceae como portainjertos para injertos de jabuticaba, así como el uso de dos técnicas de púa, con el objetivo de encontrar alternativas para la propagación vegetativa de esta especie.

    Advanced data analysis algorithms for the time-dependent defect spectroscopy of NBTI

    Abstract-In order to identify the physical mechanisms behind the negative bias temperature instability (NBTI), the timedependent defect spectroscopy (TDDS) has been recently proposed. The TDDS takes advantage of the fact that in nanoscaled devices only a handful of defects are present. As a consequence, degradation and recovery proceed in discrete steps, each of them corresponding to a charge capture or emission event. By repeatedly applying stress and recovery conditions, the TDDS analyzes the statistical properties of these discrete events. The measurement window of the TDDS is very large, but the occurrence of random telegraph noise (RTN) at certain biases/temperatures can limit its applicability. We have developed an advanced data analysis method which can also deal with data contaminated by RTN. The algorithm is based on the combination of a bootstrapping technique and cumulative sum charts. A benefit of the new method is the possibility to detect steps in a large class of different signals with a feasible amount of parameters. Moreover, de-/trapping parameters of the random telegraph noise (RTN) become accessible as well

    Acesso à justiça e meios alternativos de composição de conflitos: os projetos de conciliação e justiça de alguns Estados do Nordeste

    Get PDF
    A necessidade de efetivação dos direitos e garantias individuais e a atual situação do Poder Judiciário (com grande quantidade de processos, alto custo da atividade jurisdicional e morosidade na resolução dos litígios) têm contribuído para a adoção de métodos alternativos de resolução de conflitos. No intuito de mudar o cenário de exclusão que ora se vê, o Poder Judiciário, especialmente no Nordeste, tem criado projetos que visam garantir a todos o direito à justiça, ao devido processo legal e ao prazo razoável de duração dos processos. Isso se dá por meio da autocomposição (conciliação, mediação) ou dos métodos heterocompositivos (arbitragem). Este trabalho busca, em primeiro lugar, analisar a aplicação desses métodos em estados como Bahia, Ceará, Paraíba, Piauí e Pernambuco. Em segundo, comparar o Balcão de Justiça e Cidadania do Tribunal de Justiça da Bahia com projetos similares de outros estados da região Nordeste
