CÁLICE: SILÊNCIO OU RESISTÊNCIA?

A canção Cálice (1973) de Chico Buarque e Gilberto Gil é um dos exemplos de como o sujeito compositor utiliza as metáforas para dizer aquilo que não pode dizer. A linguagem musical sempre apresentou uma relação com o silêncio, pois este é carregado de significação. Este trabalho pretende analisar como o não-dito está associado ao silêncio, sendo trabalhado através do efeito metafórico que o sujeito compositor utiliza para disfarçar o seu dizer, ou seja, os sentidos silenciados e que geram efeitos de sentido variados no interlocutor. O trabalho utiliza como fundamentação teórica a Análise do discurso de linha francesa, tal como delineada por Pêcheux e desenvolvida, no Brasil, por Orlandi e seguidores. Ao analisarmos a canção Cálice, estamos interessados em observar o silêncio no sentido do não dito, mas que é dito camuflado através das metáforas

Small cell carcinoma of the anus: a case report

Small cell carcinoma of the anus is a very rare but aggressive tumour. We present a case of a 60-year old lady with small cell carcinoma of the anus. She had no metastatic disease on presentation. She had chemotherapy and radiotherapy but developed distant metastasis after completion of treatment. Immunohistochemistry is required to make a diagnosis. Chemotherapy remains the mainstay of treatment for small cell carcinoma of the anus with or without metastatic disease. Radiotherapy is for local control and relief of symptoms

From theoretical concepts to policies and applied programmes: the landscape of integration of oral health in primary care

Background: Despite its importance, the integration of oral health into primary care is still an emerging practice in the field of health care services. This scoping review aims to map the literature and provide a summary on the conceptual frameworks, policies and programs related to this concept. Methods: Using the Levac et al. six-stage framework, we performed a systematic search of electronic databases, organizational websites and grey literature from 1978 to April 2016. All relevant original publications with a focus on the integration of oral health into primary care were retrieved. Content analyses were performed to synthesize the results. Results: From a total of 1619 citations, 67 publications were included in the review. Two conceptual frameworks were identified. Policies regarding oral heath integration into primary care were mostly oriented toward common risk factors approach and care coordination processes. In general, oral health integrated care programs were designed in the public health sector and based on partnerships with various private and public health organizations, governmental bodies and academic institutions. These programmes used various strategies to empower oral health integrated care, including building interdisciplinary networks, training nondental care providers, oral health champion modelling, enabling care linkages and care coordinated process, as well as the use of e-health technologies. The majority of studies on the programs outcomes were descriptive in nature without reporting long-term outcomes. Conclusions: This scoping review provided a comprehensive overview on the concept of integration of oral health in primary care. The findings identified major gaps in reported programs outcomes mainly because of the lack of related research. However, the results could be considered as a first step in the development of health care policies that support collaborative practices and patient-centred care in the field of primary care sector

Consensus on circulatory shock and hemodynamic monitoring. Task force of the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine.

OBJECTIVE: Circulatory shock is a life-threatening syndrome resulting in multiorgan failure and a high mortality rate. The aim of this consensus is to provide support to the bedside clinician regarding the diagnosis, management and monitoring of shock. METHODS: The European Society of Intensive Care Medicine invited 12 experts to form a Task Force to update a previous consensus (Antonelli et al.: Intensive Care Med 33:575-590, 2007). The same five questions addressed in the earlier consensus were used as the outline for the literature search and review, with the aim of the Task Force to produce statements based on the available literature and evidence. These questions were: (1) What are the epidemiologic and pathophysiologic features of shock in the intensive care unit ? (2) Should we monitor preload and fluid responsiveness in shock ? (3) How and when should we monitor stroke volume or cardiac output in shock ? (4) What markers of the regional and microcirculation can be monitored, and how can cellular function be assessed in shock ? (5) What is the evidence for using hemodynamic monitoring to direct therapy in shock ? Four types of statements were used: definition, recommendation, best practice and statement of fact. RESULTS: Forty-four statements were made. The main new statements include: (1) statements on individualizing blood pressure targets; (2) statements on the assessment and prediction of fluid responsiveness; (3) statements on the use of echocardiography and hemodynamic monitoring. CONCLUSIONS: This consensus provides 44 statements that can be used at the bedside to diagnose, treat and monitor patients with shock

First report on dung beetles in intra-Amazonian savannahs in Roraima, Brazil

This is the first study to address the dung beetle (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Scarabaeinae) diversity in intra-Amazonian savannahs in the state of Roraima, Brazil. Our aim was to survey the dung beetle fauna associated with these savannahs (regionally called 'lavrado'), since little is known about the dung beetles from this environment. We conducted three field samples using pitfall traps baited with human dung in savannah areas near the city of Boa Vista during the rainy seasons of 1996, 1997, and 2008. We collected 383 individuals from ten species, wherein six have no previous record in intra-Amazonian savannahs. The most abundant species were Ontherus appendiculatus (Mannerheim, 1829), Canthidium aff. humerale (Germar, 1813), Dichotomius nisus (Olivier, 1789), and Pseudocanthon aff. xanthurus (Blanchard, 1846). We believe that knowing the dung beetles diversity associated with the intra-Amazonian savannahs is ideal for understanding the occurrence and distribution of these organisms in a highly threatened environment, it thus being the first step towards conservation strategy development

Chewing analysis in subjects aged between 07 to 12 years with unilateral cross bite

PURPOSE: to analyze the function of chewing, related to the posterior unilateral crossbite in children aged between 07 to 12 years. METHODS: 10 samples of both genders with posterior unilateral crossbite, with no orthodontic treatment history. During the speech language pathology evaluation the examined items were: food cutting, side of the chewing, rhythm, lips position, food escape, jaw movement, exaggerated participation of the perioral muscles, food accumulation in the vestibule of the mouth, position and size of the alimentary cake. RESULTS: from the 10 evaluated samples, 80% demonstrated unilateral chewing of the same side of the posterior unilateral crossbite and 20% bilateral chewing. From the 08 analyzed samples, the results were: previous cut, without escape of food and rotatory movements 100%; slow rhythm 50% and fast rhythm 50%; closed lips 75%; exaggerated participation of perioral muscles 62,5%; without accumulation of food 87,5%; alimentary cake cente-red 62,5%; small cale size 62,5%. CONCLUSION: from the evaluated cases, it was observed that 80% confirmed the relation between unilateral chewing and unilateral posterior crossbite, corroborating the literature s reporting. In the chewing, no any alterations related to the posterior unilateral crossbite and unilateral chewing have been noted.OBJETIVO: analisar a função de mastigação relacionada à mordida cruzada posterior unilateral em crianças na faixa etária de sete a doze anos. MÉTODOS: dez indivíduos de ambos os sexos com mordida cruzada unilateral posterior sem intervenção ortodôntica. Na avaliação fonoaudiológica os itens considerados foram: corte do alimento, lado da mastigação, ritmo, postura labial, escape de alimentos, movimento de mandíbula, participação exagerada da musculatura perioral, acúmulo de alimento no vestíbulo da boca, posição e tamanho do bolo alimentar. RESULTADOS: dos dez indivíduos avaliados, 80% apresentaram mastigação unilateral do mesmo lado da mordida cruzada posterior unilateral e 20% mastigação bilateral. Dos oito indivíduos analisados com mastigação unilateral, os resultados encontrados foram: corte anterior, sem escape de alimentos e movimentos rotatórios 100%; ritmo lento 50% e rápido 50%; lábios fechados 75%; participação exagerada da musculatura perioral 62,5%; sem acúmulo de alimentos 87,5%; bolo alimentar centralizado 75%; tamanho do bolo pequeno 62,5%. CONCLUSÃO: dos casos avaliados, observou-se que 80% confirmam a relação entre mastigação unilateral e mordida cruzada posterior unilateral. Na mastigação, não foram evidenciadas quaisquer outras alterações que possam estar relacionadas à mordida cruzada posterior unilateral e mastigação unilateral.Prefeitura do Rio de JaneiroUniversidade do Estado do Rio de JaneiroCEFAC - Saúde e EducaçãoHospital Estadual Adão Pereira NunesUniversidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP) Setor de Investigação em Doenças NeuromuscularesUniversidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)UNIFESP, Setor de Investigação em Doenças NeuromuscularesUNIFESPSciEL

New insights into the distribution and conservation status of the Golden-White Tassel-Ear Marmoset Mico chrysoleucos (Primates, Callitrichidae)

Among the 13 Mico species recognized by the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, six are listed as "Data Deficient". The geographic range of most of the Mico species has been estimated from only a few records. We report new localities and the geographic extension of Mico chrysoleucos. In addition, we confirmed the presence of the species in two distinct protected areas. We modeled the habitat suitability of M. chrysoleucos using the maximum entropy method and including new records obtained by the authors in the state of Amazonas, Brazil. From the total area of occurrence calculated for the species, 22.8% is covered by protected areas and indigenous lands. The annual mean deforestation rate estimated between 2000 and 2015 was 2.95%, and the total area deforested by 2015 was 3354 km2 or 8.6% of the total distribution limits of the species. The habitat lost between 2000 and 2015 was 3.2% (1131 km2 ) of the total potential distribution, while the habitat loss area legally protected was 31 km2, and the habitat loss in settlements was equal to 691 km2. Our results extend the geographic distribution of the species about 100 km farther south, with the Maracanã River being a possible geographic barrier for the species. The significantly low rate of habitat loss inside protected areas and indigenous land, when compared to unprotected areas, points out the importance of these areas to M. chrysoleucos conservation. The species is relatively wide-ranging, legally protected, and resilient to regional anthropic threats. However, the hydroelectric schemes and the improvement of the road system in southern Amazonia pose an imminent threat to the species
