O tratamento que a inclusão educacional do público da educação especial recebe nos Planos Institucionais de Desenvolvimento e Expansão (PIDEs) da Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU)

Este trabalho apresenta parte dos resultados obtidos em pesquisa desenvolvida no curso de mestrado em educação. Tivemos como objetivo analisar de que forma a inclusão é proposta e implementada pela Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU). Buscamos identificar qual o conceito de inclusão fomentado nos Planos Institucionais de Desenvolvimento e Expansão (PIDEs) e se as metas e ações previstas nesses documentos contribuem para minimizar as barreiras físicas e atitudinais enfrentadas pelos estudantes com deficiência nesse espaço institucional. Para realização deste trabalho, optou-se pela pesquisa documental utilizando como fonte de dados, os documentos oficiais nacionais e da instituição. Os nacionais foram as legislações reguladoras e orientadoras para a educação em geral e para a superior, portanto foram tomados as leis, decretos, pareceres, instruções normativas, notas técnicas, etc. produzidas de 1996 a 2015; e como documentos institucionais, foram utilizadas as duas versões do PIDE, no período de 2008-2012 e no período de 2010-2015, atas do Conselho Universitário (CONSUN), Estatuto UFU, Regimento Interno e outros documentos. Constatamos que a inclusão, sob os efeitos do processo histórico, torna-se, na atualidade, um imperativo do Estado e chega às universidades, dado que, segundo a visão neoliberal, a educação passa a ser condição para que as pessoas possam operar com a lógica da inclusão em todas as suas ações. Constatamos também que, na UFU, esse imperativo inclusivo se verifica nos documentos (PIDEs) de duas maneiras: através da inclusão social e da acessibilidade como política de inserção e permanência dos estudantes

O apoio da superintendência escolar aos gestores escolares do Ceará durante a implantação do ensino remoto: uma análise sob a ótica dos gestores da Regional Crede 3, Acaraú

This work aims to present an assessment by managers the role of the Superintendence in guiding, supporting and qualifying school management concerning the implementation and monitoring of the Home Care Plan in the period of remote education.  A qualitative and exploratory research, of applied nature, was used, aiming at the assessment of the superintendence service by the managers and the generation of knowledge about the practice of this employee. The methodology consisted of bibliographic research, application of a structured questionnaire, and analysis of the results in context with the bibliography. It was concluded that  support of the Superintendence became essential in the process of implementing this plan, since it guides, accompanies, gives feedback, generates reflection on the performance of managers, thus strengthening their performance in the school processes organization, focusing in interaction, maintaining the link and learning from students. It was found that the Superintendence service generates a relationship of trust, co-responsibility and proximity of schools to other instances of the network, which contributed to a more effective implementation of Home Care Plan from the state public schools.Key-words: management, school superintendence, remote teaching.Neste artigo tem-se o objetivo de apresentar uma avaliação dos gestores sobre a atuação da Superintendência Escolar da Seduc/CE na orientação, apoio e qualificação da gestão escolar no que diz respeito à implantação e acompanhamento do plano de atendimento domiciliar no período de ensino remoto.

Chromosome 1p36 deletion syndrome: a report on 4 cases

Chromosome 1p36 deletion syndrome (MIM #607872) was first described in 1997 by Shapira et al. This condition is compatible with a monosomy of the 1p36 band in the distal region of the short arm of chromosome 1 and is the most common terminal deletion in humans, with an estimated prevalence of approximately 1 in 5,000 live births. This constitutional deletion is associated with mental retardation, developmental delay, seizures, hypotonia and heart defects. The syndrome is also characterized by several distinct dysmorphic features, including large anterior fontanels, microcephaly, brachycephaly, deep-set eyes, flat nose and nasal bridge, and pointed chin. The 1p36 band is not very clearly visible using classical cytogenetics, and it is therefore difficult to detect these deletions in banded karyotypes. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) analysis have increasingly been used, in addition to classical cytogenetic analysis, in children with mental retardation in order to identify this chromosomal abnormality. The authors present four patients between 1 month and 14 years of age with apparently normal karyotypes. Using molecular cytogenetic techniques, all cases showed a “pure” 1p36 deletion: three were detected by FISH (CEB108/T7, located at 1p36.3, Vysis) and are “de novo”; the fourth was detected by MLPA (P036 and P070, MRC Holland) analysis, and its origin is still unknown. The phenotypes of these patients are described and compared with other cases having this syndrome, described in the literature. We also emphasize the importance of good clinical characterization in order to establish the best cytogenetic strategy to assure accurate diagnosis

Adaptação transcultural para o português brasileiro do instrumento CORE-OM : uma escala para avaliar a eficácia e a efetividade da psicoterapia

Introdução: O Clinical Outcome in Routine Evaluation – Outcome Measurement (CORE-OM) foi desenvolvido nos anos 1990 com o objetivo de avaliar a eficácia e efetividade do tratamento em saúde mental. Objetivo: Fazer a adaptação transcultural do instrumento CORE-OM para o português do Brasil. Método: O modelo de tradução e adaptação foi baseado no protocolo internacional da equipe CORE System Trust, que compreende as sete etapas a seguir: tradução, avaliação da equivalência semântica, elaboração da versão síntese, aplicação na população, compilação dos dados e retrotradução. Resultados: A partir da análise semântica, foram necessárias modificações em sete dos 34 itens originais. Foram feitas mudanças para evitar a repetição de termos assim como o uso de termos de difícil compreensão. A análise de consistência interna demonstrou evidência de estabilidade dos escores no CORE-OM adaptado. Conclusão: O instrumento foi adaptado para o português do Brasil, e as propriedades semânticas e conceituais dos itens resultantes foram equivalentes às do instrumento original.Introduction: The Clinical Outcome in Routine Evaluation – Outcome Measurement (CORE-OM) was developed in the 1990s, with the aim of assessing the efficacy and effectiveness of mental health treatments. Objective: To adapt the CORE-OM for use in the Brazilian population. Method: The instrument was translated and adapted based on the international protocol developed by the CORE System Trust which contains seven steps: translation, semantic equivalence analysis, synthesis of the translated versions, pre-testing in the target population, data analysis and back translation. Results: After semantic analysis, modifications were necessary in seven of the 34 original items. Changes were made to avoid repetition of words and the use of terms difficult to understand. Internal consistency analysis showed evidence of score stability in the CORE-OM adapted to Brazilian Portuguese. Conclusion: The instrument was successfully adapted to Brazilian Portuguese, and its semantic and conceptual properties were equivalent to those of the original instrument

Effects of inorganic mercury exposure in the alveolar bone of rats: an approach of qualitative and morphological aspects

Pró-Reitoria de Pesquisa (PACI/PROPESP/UFPA/ Brazil), Brazilian National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq), Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - Brazil (CAPES) – Finance Cod 001Background: In comparison to organic mercury (MeHg), the environmental inorganic mercury (IHg) can be found in some skin-lightening cosmestics were considered “harmless” for a long time. However, recent studies have shown that long-term exposure to low doses of IHg may affect biological systems. Therefore, this study investigated the effects of IHg long-term exposure to the alveolar bone of adult rats. Methods: Adult Wistar rats were distributed in control and HgCl2 exposed (0.375 mg/kg/day). After 45 days, the rats were euthanized and both blood and hemimandibles were collected. Total blood Hg levels were measured and both inorganic and organic components of the alveolar bone were determined through XRD and ATR-FTIR. The microstructure of the alveolar bone was assessed by using micro-CT and the morphometric analysis was performed by using stereomicroscopy. Results: Alterations in the physicochemical components of the alveolar bone of exposed animals were observed. The bone changes represented a tissue reaction at the microstructural level, such as bone volume increase. However, no significant dimensional changes (bone height) were observed. Conclusion: Exposure to IHg at this dose can promote microstructural changes and alteration in the organic and inorganic components in the alveolar bone.publishersversionpublishe

Genome wide scan for quantitative trait loci affecting tick resistance in cattle (Bos taurus × Bos indicus)

<p><b>Abstract</b></p> <p><b>Background</b></p> <p>In tropical countries, losses caused by bovine tick <it>Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus</it> infestation have a tremendous economic impact on cattle production systems. Genetic variation between <it>Bos taurus</it> and <it>Bos indicus</it> to tick resistance and molecular biology tools might allow for the identification of molecular markers linked to resistance traits that could be used as an auxiliary tool in selection programs. The objective of this work was to identify QTL associated with tick resistance/susceptibility in a bovine F2 population derived from the Gyr (<it>Bos indicus</it>) × Holstein (<it>Bos taurus</it>) cross.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>Through a whole genome scan with microsatellite markers, we were able to map six genomic regions associated with bovine tick resistance. For most QTL, we have found that depending on the tick evaluation season (dry and rainy) different sets of genes could be involved in the resistance mechanism. We identified dry season specific QTL on BTA 2 and 10, rainy season specific QTL on BTA 5, 11 and 27. We also found a highly significant genome wide QTL for both dry and rainy seasons in the central region of BTA 23.</p> <p>Conclusions</p> <p>The experimental F2 population derived from Gyr × Holstein cross successfully allowed the identification of six highly significant QTL associated with tick resistance in cattle. QTL located on BTA 23 might be related with the bovine histocompatibility complex. Further investigation of these QTL will help to isolate candidate genes involved with tick resistance in cattle.</p

Capacidade de carga na trilha principal da ARIE da Floresta da Cicuta, Volta Redonda-Barra Mansa, Rio de Janeiro, Brasil

The present study was carried out in the ARIE of the Cicuta Forest, Barra Mansa and Volta Redonda (RJ). The objective was to determine the tourism tarrying capacity of the Main Trail of the ARIE, generating an estimated number of visitors per day, and to evaluate the management potential to complement the Management Plan. The method proposed by Cifuentes (1992) was applied to determine the tourist carrying capacity. The present study demonstrated that the trail is relatively well aligned with the National System of Protected Areas (SNUC). The Effective Carrying Capacity was 208 visitors x day-1. This study may contribute to the process of updating the ARIE Management Plan, but should be complemented with other studies (Acceptable Exchange Limit - AEL, Visitor Impact Management - VIM, etc.).O presente estudo foi realizado na ARIE da Floresta da Cicuta, Barra Mansa e Volta Redonda (RJ).

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL STUDY OF PLANTS USED IN THE MIDDLE XINGU REGION AMAZON FOREST

Introduction: The Amazonian peoples have medicinal knowledge built by symbiosis with the forest. This fact reinforces the importance of studies on the traditional use of natural products, describing the plants used for medicinal purposes. Therefore, this work aimed to carry out an ethnopharmacological survey of plants used by residents of the middle Xingu region, Pará, Brazil. Methods: Questionnaires based on the therapeutic use of plants were used. Results: 36 people were interviewed and 38 plants were described. Of the cataloged species, there was a greater number used in the treatment of infectious, digestive and circulatory diseases, with 21 plant species cited for the treatment of these diseases (the Lamiaceae family was the most cited with popular names). Other families demonstrated use associated with the treatment of infectious and parasitic diseases: Acanthaceae, Annonaceae, Bignoniaceae, Costaceae, Crassulaceae, Cucurbitaceae, Lecythidaceae, Plantaginaceae, Portulacaceae, Rubiaceae, Smilacaceae, Solanaceae, Urticaceae, Vitaceae and Zingiberaceae. With endocrine and nutritional functions, species of the Amaranthaceae family were listed. For skin diseases, the Portulacaceae and Vitaceae families. Discussion/Conclusions: The results showed that traditional healers have some knowledge about different diseases. However, scientific investigations are needed regarding the effects and toxicity of the herbal medicines used to treat them
