A proposal of sensitive indicators of the rehabilitation nursing care of people in the surgical process, to be included in the ontology of aging
Given the complex surgical scenario observed today, it is necessary to change the urgent definition of a specific ontology, especially in terms of aging. The interventions of the Specialist Nurse in Rehabilitation Nursing to the person in the surgical process are primordial for the maintenance of the functional capacities, prevention of complications and impediment of incapacities. However, it is necessary to provide individualized and fostered care in a practice of excellence, and the consequent organized reading of records of an aging ontology for decision making on rehabilitation indicators. Method: a systematic review of the literature was carried out using the EBSCO host (MEDLINE with Full Text, CINAHL Plus with Full Text and MedicLatina), using the PI [C] O method, and 11 articles were selected. Results: 41 indicators were identified to be included in the ontology classes of aging: pain control, patient and family education, support and communication, reduction of postoperative complications, gain of functionality, restoration of physical function, mobility, multidisciplinary intervention and the frequency of interventions. Conclusion: it is considered that it was imperative to identify sensitive indicators for rehabilitation nursing care, based on scientific evidence and thus provide an opportunity for nurses to reflect on their daily practices and conduct their actions towards excellence in care, to propose a set of 41 classes internationally on the ontology of aging
Phenomenological study of the electronic transport coefficients of graphene
Using a semi-classical approach and input from experiments on the
conductivity of graphene, we determine the electronic density dependence of the
electronic transport coefficients -- conductivity, thermal conductivity and
thermopower -- of doped graphene. Also the electronic density dependence of the
optical conductivity is obtained. Finally we show that the classical Hall
effect (low field) in graphene has the same form as for the independent
electron case, characterized by a parabolic dispersion, as long as the
relaxation time is proportional to the momentum.Comment: 4 pages, 1 figur

Tolerância de ovinos ao hidróxido de sódio e/ou sódio residual contido em cama de frangos de corte.
Resumo: Foram utilizados 18 ovinos da raca Corriedale, num delineamento em blocos inteiramente casualizados, com um arranjo fatorial 2 x 3, dois tipos de cama de frangos de corte, cama de casca de arroz (CCA) e cama de palha de arroz (CPA) e tres niveis de NaOH (zero, 6% e 12%). O consumo de sodio, consumo de agua, producao urinaria e a relacao de Na: Kurinaria foram significativamente (P0,05). O pH da urina mostrou tendencia a se elevar somente a medida que foram aumentados os niveis de alcali na dieta dos animais. O pH ruminal parece nao ter sido afetado pelo consumo das dietas tratadas com NaOH. O balanco de sodio foi negativo e inversamente relacionado com o consumo deste mineral, nao havendo dados suficientes que permitam a explicacao deste fato. [Sheep tolerance to sociu hydroxide and/or residual contents in the broiler litter]. Sheep tolerance to sodium hydroxide (NaOH) treated diets was studied. Eighteen Corriedale sheep were used in a completely randomized block design, witha 2 x 3 factorial arrangement. The design included two types of brolier litter lone composed of rice huiis and the other one of rice straw) and three leveis of NaOH (zero, 6% and 12%). Water and Na intakes, urine excretion and Na: K urinary ratio, increased (P 0.05) when yield increased. The urine pH showed only a tendency of increasing when the alkaii treatment in the animal diet increased. No effect of the NaOH treatments on the ruminal pH was detected. Sodium balance was negative and inversely related to the Na intake. However, there were not enough data fora ciear explanation of this fact
Disorder Induced Localized States in Graphene
We consider the electronic structure near vacancies in the half-filled
honeycomb lattice. It is shown that vacancies induce the formation of localized
states. When particle-hole symmetry is broken, localized states become
resonances close to the Fermi level. We also study the problem of a finite
density of vacancies, obtaining the electronic density of states, and
discussing the issue of electronic localization in these systems. Our results
also have relevance for the problem of disorder in d-wave superconductors.Comment: Replaced with published version. 4 pages, 4 figures. Fig. 1 was

Multi-q Pattern Classification of Polarization Curves
Several experimental measurements are expressed in the form of
one-dimensional profiles, for which there is a scarcity of methodologies able
to classify the pertinence of a given result to a specific group. The
polarization curves that evaluate the corrosion kinetics of electrodes in
corrosive media are an application where the behavior is chiefly analyzed from
profiles. Polarization curves are indeed a classic method to determine the
global kinetics of metallic electrodes, but the strong nonlinearity from
different metals and alloys can overlap and the discrimination becomes a
challenging problem. Moreover, even finding a typical curve from replicated
tests requires subjective judgement. In this paper we used the so-called
multi-q approach based on the Tsallis statistics in a classification engine to
separate multiple polarization curve profiles of two stainless steels. We
collected 48 experimental polarization curves in aqueous chloride medium of two
stainless steel types, with different resistance against localized corrosion.
Multi-q pattern analysis was then carried out on a wide potential range, from
cathodic up to anodic regions. An excellent classification rate was obtained,
at a success rate of 90%, 80%, and 83% for low (cathodic), high (anodic), and
both potential ranges, respectively, using only 2% of the original profile
data. These results show the potential of the proposed approach towards
efficient, robust, systematic and automatic classification of highly non-linear
profile curves.Comment: 12 pages, 7 figure
