A análise das variações do Ideb da Rede Estadual do Piauí entre 2007 e 2019

External evaluations are essential in supporting educational networks, as they allow the projection of actions and goals and improvements in teaching and serve to articulate the results to accountability policies as a support point for the planning and elaboration of public educational policies. analysis of the Ideb results obtained by the Piauí state network, between the years 2007 to 2019, highlighting the variation of the results in the period in which the SAEB evaluations were applied in the State, for high school students. The discussion is centered on the analysis based on the results obtained and the variations of these results for the State, considering its projection or goal in each edition. This study found that there was variation in the results and that although they were occasional variations, that is, in the last two editions, they were below the projected goals. With this result, there was a need to change the strategies, through practical actions with the schools of the network, able to help in the fulfillment and overcoming of the goals.As avaliações externas são essenciais no apoio às redes educacionais, por possibilitar projeção de ações e metas e melhorias no ensino e servir para articular os resultados a políticas de responsabilização como ponto de apoio para o planejamento e elaboração de políticas públicas educacionais. Este trabalho apresenta uma análise acerca dos resultados do Ideb obtidos pela rede estadual do Piauí, entre os anos de 2007 a 2019, destacando a variação dos resultados no período em que as avaliações do SAEB foram aplicadas no Estado, para estudantes do Ensino Médio. A discussão está centrada na análise a partir dos resultados obtidos e as variações desses resultados para o Estado, considerando sua projeção ou meta em cada edição. Este estudo verificou que houve variação nos resultados e que embora fossem variações pontuais, ou seja, nas duas últimas edições, elas ficaram abaixo das metas projetadas. Com esse resultado, houve a necessidade de mudança nas estratégias, através de ações práticas junto às escolas da rede, capazes de ajudar no cumprimento e superação das metas

Catálogo Taxonômico da Fauna do Brasil: setting the baseline knowledge on the animal diversity in Brazil

The limited temporal completeness and taxonomic accuracy of species lists, made available in a traditional manner in scientific publications, has always represented a problem. These lists are invariably limited to a few taxonomic groups and do not represent up-to-date knowledge of all species and classifications. In this context, the Brazilian megadiverse fauna is no exception, and the Catálogo Taxonômico da Fauna do Brasil (CTFB) (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br/), made public in 2015, represents a database on biodiversity anchored on a list of valid and expertly recognized scientific names of animals in Brazil. The CTFB is updated in near real time by a team of more than 800 specialists. By January 1, 2024, the CTFB compiled 133,691 nominal species, with 125,138 that were considered valid. Most of the valid species were arthropods (82.3%, with more than 102,000 species) and chordates (7.69%, with over 11,000 species). These taxa were followed by a cluster composed of Mollusca (3,567 species), Platyhelminthes (2,292 species), Annelida (1,833 species), and Nematoda (1,447 species). All remaining groups had less than 1,000 species reported in Brazil, with Cnidaria (831 species), Porifera (628 species), Rotifera (606 species), and Bryozoa (520 species) representing those with more than 500 species. Analysis of the CTFB database can facilitate and direct efforts towards the discovery of new species in Brazil, but it is also fundamental in providing the best available list of valid nominal species to users, including those in science, health, conservation efforts, and any initiative involving animals. The importance of the CTFB is evidenced by the elevated number of citations in the scientific literature in diverse areas of biology, law, anthropology, education, forensic science, and veterinary science, among others

Comparative mitochondrial genome brings insights to slight variation in gene proportion and large intergenic spacer and phylogenetic relationship of mudskipper species

Abstract Fish mitochondrial genome have been largely studied worldwide for evolutionary and other genetic purposes and the structure and gene organization are commonly conservative. However, several studies have demonstrated that this scenario may present variations in some taxa, showing differentiation on the gene rearrangement. In this study, the complete mitogenome of terrestrial fish Boleophthalmus dussumieri was generated and compared with other species of the Exudercidae fishes. The newly complete mitogenome generated is circular and 16,685 bp of length, and it contained 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA (rRNAs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), and one control region (CR), with high conservative structure, like other Mudskippers. Most of the PCG showed similar codon usage bias. The gene length was found to be different specially for the CR, 12S rRNA gene and ND5 gene in some taxon. All the Boleophthalmus species showed a gene duplication in the CR, except for B. dussumieri, and they presented a long intergenic spacer specially on the tRNA-Pro/ OH Tandem duplication/random loss (TDRL) and dimer-mitogenome and nonrandom loss (DMNL) are suitable to explain the mitogenome rearrangement observed in this study. The phylogenetic analysis well supported the monophyly of all mudskipper species and the analysis positioned the Periophthalmus clade as the most basal of the terrestrial fishes. This finding provides basis and brings insights for gene variation, gene rearrangements and replications showing evidence for variety of mitochondrial structure diversity within mudskippers

Brazilian society of hepatology recommendations for the diagnosis and management of autoimmune diseases of the liver

ABSTRACT In order to draw evidence-based recommendations concerning the management of autoimmune diseases of the liver, the Brazilian Society of Hepatology has sponsored a single-topic meeting in October 18th, 2014 at São Paulo. An organizing committee comprised of seven investigators was previously elected by the Governing Board to organize the scientific agenda as well as to select twenty panelists to make a systematic review of the literature and to present topics related to the diagnosis and treatment of autoimmune hepatitis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, primary biliary cirrhosis and their overlap syndromes. After the meeting, all panelists gathered together for the discussion of the topics and the elaboration of those recommendations. The text was subsequently submitted for suggestions and approval of all members of the Brazilian Society of Hepatology through its homepage. The present paper is the final version of the reviewed manuscript organized in topics, followed by the recommendations of the Brazilian Society of Hepatology

UPDATE OF THE BRAZILIAN SOCIETY OF HEPATOLOGY RECOMMENDATIONS FOR DIAGNOSIS AND MANAGEMENT OF AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES OF THE LIVER

ABSTRACT New data concerning the management of autoimmune liver diseases have emerged since the last single-topic meeting sponsored by the Brazilian Society of Hepatology to draw recommendations about the diagnosis and treatment of autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), overlap syndromes of AIH, PBC and PSC and specific complications and topics concerning AIH and cholestatic liver diseases. This manuscript updates those previous recommendations according to the best evidence available in the literature up to now. The same panel of experts that took part in the first consensus document reviewed all recommendations, which were subsequently scrutinized by all members of the Brazilian Society of Hepatology using a web-based approach. The new recommendations are presented herein. RESUMO Desde a publicação em 2015 das recomendações da Sociedade Brasileira de Hepatologia sobre a prevenção e tratamento de doenças hepáticas autoimunes, novos dados baseados em evidências científicas foram publicados na literatura, mudando o diagnóstico e tratamento da hepatite autoimune (HAI), colangite biliar primária (CBP), colangite esclerosante primária (CEP), síndromes de sobreposição de HAI, CBP e CEP e o manejo de complicações específicas além de outros tópicos relativos à HAI e doenças hepáticas colestáticas. Este manuscrito atualiza as recomendações anteriores de acordo com as melhores evidências disponíveis na literatura até o momento. O mesmo painel de experts que participou da primeira diretriz revisou todas as recomendações de acordo com os dados publicados na literatura e elaborou um manuscrito submetido subsequentemente à apreciação e revisão de todos os membros da Sociedade Brasileira de Hepatologia via homepage da sociedade. As recomendações finais atualizadas foram condensadas no presente documento

Professores e Alunos: o engendramento da violência da escola

The school violence engendering is partially analyzed, considering the violence production in the school environment. This is a bibliographic research with quantitative and qualitative approach. Sources: 77 theses and 15 dissertations carried out in Brazil (2007 to 2012). Data collection and organization: Content Analysis. Main reference: Bernard Charlot and Pierre Bourdieu. Results: the sources showed that Brazilian teachers participate effectively in the school violence engendering, contributing to violence production in the school environment. The students are the main victims. The teacher is less affected by physical and verbal violence. The symbolic power is the most perpetrated by the teacher against the student. The school also plays a major role in it.Analisa-se o engendramento de uma face da violência da escola, tendo em vista a produção da violência em espaço escolar. Pesquisa bibliográfica quanti-qualitativa. Fontes: 77 dissertações e 15 teses produzidas no Brasil (2007 a 2012). Coleta e organização dos dados: Análise de Conteúdo. Fundamentação base: Bernard Charlot e Pierre Bourdieu. Resultados: as fontes apontaram que professores brasileiros são protagonistas na constituição da violência da escola, contribuindo para a produção da violência em espaço escolar. Os alunos são as principais vítimas dessa violência. O professor sofre menos violência física e verbal do que o aluno. A violência simbólica é a mais usada pelo professor contra o aluno. A escola também usa desse expediente
