Desafios e possibilidades para o letramento cartografico na Escola Classe Arniqueiras

Monografia (graduação)–Universidade de Brasília, Faculdade de Educação, 2014.Este trabalho apresenta reflexões acerca da cartografia escolar, em especial do letramento cartográfico, nos anos iniciais do ensino fundamental. Parte do princípio de que a educação em geografia deva promover o domínio da linguagem cartográfica e a capacidade de utilização de um mapa. Defende retomar o desenho como parte constitutiva do processo de formação de noções cartográficas na criança. Metodologicamente trabalha com grupos focais, com abordagem qualitativa e tem como objetivo analisar como acontece o ensino da geografia se ele se desenvolve no contexto que favorece o letramento cartográfico ou ao seu adestramento.This paper presents reflections on school cartography, especially the cartographic literacy in the early years of elementary school. Assumes that education in geography should promote the field of cartographic language and the ability to use a map. Advocates resume drawing as a constitutive part of the training of cartographic concepts in child process. Methodologically works with focus groups, qualitative approach and aims to analyze how does the teaching of geography if it develops in the context that favors the cartographic or its literacy training.This paper presents reflections on school cartography, especially the cartographic literacy in the early years of elementary school.

Identidade do professor de jovens e adultos : limites e possibilidades

Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (especialização)—Universidade de Brasília, Universidade Aberta do Brasil, Faculdade de Educação, III Curso de Especialização em Educação na Diversidade e Cidadania, com Ênfase em Educação de Jovens e Adultos, 2015.O presente Projeto de Intervenção Local, de caráter bibliográfico e de estudo de campo, objetivou conhecer a realidade de trabalho dos professores da Educação de Jovens e Adultos, delimitado à Escola Municipal Ipanema, localizada em Valparaíso de Goiás. Por meio deste Projeto de Intervenção Local, reconhece-se a importância de se ter uma escola harmoniosa e coesa, na qual os profissionais desenvolvam ações que tornem o ambiente escolar mais interessante e motivador e, consequentemente, promova a qualidade do ensino para os alunos da EJA. A justificativa desta intervenção local encontra-se, fundamentalmente, na análise dos limites e das possibilidades do professor da EJA, na escola onde seu fazer pedagógico se desenvolve. Buscou-se, também, por meio deste estudo, conscientizar o professor sobre a importância da EJA para a vida global dos estudantes e isso requer currículos e programas significativos, que promovam a otimização do ensino. Importante salientar que os professores da EJA necessitam de uma capacitação contínua para trabalhar com o público de jovens e de adultos, uma vez que a maioria destes alunos procura a escola com expectativas de encontrar “a sua vez” no mercado de trabalho. Portanto, o professor precisa estar preparado para mediar um ensino eficiente e real para a EJA, pois, na era atual, diante de tantas tecnologias e de inúmeras informações, a escola precisa acompanhar os saberes diversificados dos novos tempos. Existem algumas limitações para se trabalhar na EJA, mas também há possibilidades... Um dos limites da EJA, segundo os professores entrevistados, é a violência no bairro, o que provoca o medo, a insegurança, o pânico, o estresse e até uma relativa desmotivação dos professores, pois muitos projetos são adiados devido aos constantes conflitos nos arredores e dependências da escola. Quanto às possibilidades destaca-se a gestão compartilhada e a coesão da equipe, o que favorece uma práxis pedagógica mais eficiente e compromissada em prol dos estudantes da EJA.The present Project of Local Intervention, that has bibliographic character and of field study, aimed to know the reality of work of Educação de Jovens e Adultos’ teachers, delimited to Escola Municipal Ipanema, in Valparaíso de Goiás. Based on this intervention, we recognize the importance of having a harmonious and cohesive school, in which the professionals develop actions that make the school environment more interesting and motivating and, consequently, promote the quality of teaching of EJA. This local intervention is justified in the analysis of the limits and the possibilities of EJA’s teachers and of the school in which their pedagogical know-how is built up. Also, we intended to aware teachers about the relevance of EJA to the students and this action requires significant curriculum and specific programs, which improve even more education optimization. It is important to highlight that EJA’s teachers need a continuous training to teach the youth and adults, since most of them look for the school expecting to find “their turn” in the job market. Thus, teachers need to be prepared to mediate an efficient and a real teaching to these ones, for in the current era, with so many technologies and innumerous sort of information, the school must follow the diversified knowledges of the modern time. There are some limitations to work with the adult and youth education, but there are also many possibilities. One of the EJA’s limits, according to the teachers interviewed, is the violence in the neighborhood where the students live on, that causes fear, insecurity, panic, stress and even relative teachers’ demotivation, because many projects are postponed due to constant conflicts in surrounding areas and inside the school. Concerning to the possibilities, the most important ones are de shared management and the team cohesion, which favors a more efficient and committed pedagogical praxis, so that EJA students’ can be helped

Interações medicamentosas potenciais em idosos com Diabetes mellitus e Hipertensão Arterial Sistêmica em um centro de saúde integrada de Teresina-Piauí

É comum, devido à alta incidência de DM e HAS, encontrar sujeitos que façam uso de anti-hipertensivos e medicamentos hipoglicemiantes simultaneamente, aumentando a incidência de Interação Medicamentosa (IM). O presente estudo tem como objetivo relatar as potenciais interações medicamentosas nas prescrições dos portadores de HAS e de DM atendidos em um Centro de Saúde Integrada de Teresina Piauí. O estudo contou com uma amostra de 50 prontuários analisados, sendo excluídos os participantes que não respondessem as variáveis estudas. A pesquisa revelou que a polifarmacoterapia foi o principal fator de risco para a ocorrência de Interações Medicamentosas, onde foi observado que a polifarmacoterapia apresentou relação significativa com o desenvolvimento de IM, de modo que, quanto maior a quantidade de medicamentos, maior a frequência de interações. Além disso, esta pesquisa demonstra em profundidade a necessidade de realização de mais estudos, os quais devem ser grandes, randomizados e tentarão avaliar ou elucidar o diagnóstico, tratamento e prevenção, podendo ser combinados aos mais antigos como uma estratégia crítica para melhorar a qualidade vida, além de protocolos mais precisos do tema, principalmente com relação a realização de um manejo adequado, mais detalhado e efetivo

Desafios e Avanços no Manejo da Hemorragia Pós-Parto: Estratégias Emergentes e Melhores Práticas

This article presents a literature review on the management of postpartum hemorrhage (PPH), focusing on emerging strategies and best practices. PPH is a significant obstetric complication that continues to pose a challenge for healthcare professionals. The review encompasses guidelines and recommendations from organizations such as the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) and the World Health Organization (WHO), as well as highlighting studies on arterial embolization and other innovative interventions. The results emphasize the importance of a multidisciplinary approach and early identification of PPH to prevent serious complications. It is concluded that arterial embolization emerges as a valuable option in the management of refractory PPH, but its use should be carefully considered in conjunction with other therapeutic and preventive approaches.Este artigo apresenta uma revisão da literatura sobre o manejo da hemorragia pós-parto (HPP), com foco em estratégias emergentes e melhores práticas. A HPP é uma complicação obstétrica significativa que continua a representar um desafio para os profissionais de saúde.

Pervasive gaps in Amazonian ecological research

Biodiversity loss is one of the main challenges of our time,1,2 and attempts to address it require a clear un derstanding of how ecological communities respond to environmental change across time and space.3,4 While the increasing availability of global databases on ecological communities has advanced our knowledge of biodiversity sensitivity to environmental changes,5–7 vast areas of the tropics remain understudied.8–11 In the American tropics, Amazonia stands out as the world’s most diverse rainforest and the primary source of Neotropical biodiversity,12 but it remains among the least known forests in America and is often underrepre sented in biodiversity databases.13–15 To worsen this situation, human-induced modifications16,17 may elim inate pieces of the Amazon’s biodiversity puzzle before we can use them to understand how ecological com munities are responding. To increase generalization and applicability of biodiversity knowledge,18,19 it is thus crucial to reduce biases in ecological research, particularly in regions projected to face the most pronounced environmental changes. We integrate ecological community metadata of 7,694 sampling sites for multiple or ganism groups in a machine learning model framework to map the research probability across the Brazilian Amazonia, while identifying the region’s vulnerability to environmental change. 15%–18% of the most ne glected areas in ecological research are expected to experience severe climate or land use changes by 2050. This means that unless we take immediate action, we will not be able to establish their current status, much less monitor how it is changing and what is being lostinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Impact of COVID-19 on cardiovascular testing in the United States versus the rest of the world

Objectives: This study sought to quantify and compare the decline in volumes of cardiovascular procedures between the United States and non-US institutions during the early phase of the coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the care of many non-COVID-19 illnesses. Reductions in diagnostic cardiovascular testing around the world have led to concerns over the implications of reduced testing for cardiovascular disease (CVD) morbidity and mortality. Methods: Data were submitted to the INCAPS-COVID (International Atomic Energy Agency Non-Invasive Cardiology Protocols Study of COVID-19), a multinational registry comprising 909 institutions in 108 countries (including 155 facilities in 40 U.S. states), assessing the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on volumes of diagnostic cardiovascular procedures. Data were obtained for April 2020 and compared with volumes of baseline procedures from March 2019. We compared laboratory characteristics, practices, and procedure volumes between U.S. and non-U.S. facilities and between U.S. geographic regions and identified factors associated with volume reduction in the United States. Results: Reductions in the volumes of procedures in the United States were similar to those in non-U.S. facilities (68% vs. 63%, respectively; p = 0.237), although U.S. facilities reported greater reductions in invasive coronary angiography (69% vs. 53%, respectively; p < 0.001). Significantly more U.S. facilities reported increased use of telehealth and patient screening measures than non-U.S. facilities, such as temperature checks, symptom screenings, and COVID-19 testing. Reductions in volumes of procedures differed between U.S. regions, with larger declines observed in the Northeast (76%) and Midwest (74%) than in the South (62%) and West (44%). Prevalence of COVID-19, staff redeployments, outpatient centers, and urban centers were associated with greater reductions in volume in U.S. facilities in a multivariable analysis. Conclusions: We observed marked reductions in U.S. cardiovascular testing in the early phase of the pandemic and significant variability between U.S. regions. The association between reductions of volumes and COVID-19 prevalence in the United States highlighted the need for proactive efforts to maintain access to cardiovascular testing in areas most affected by outbreaks of COVID-19 infection

Nutritional, anti-nutritional and technological functionality of flour from Libidibia ferrea

The purpose was to develop new ingredients for the food industry. The flours were obtained from the bark and the fruit of juca (Libidibia ferrea) by grinding and drying in an air circulation greenhouse. The flours were analyzed in terms of nutritional, anti-nutritional, antioxidant, and technological functionality propriety. The flours developed are rich in carbohydrates with values ranging from 89.29 g/100g for the fruit and 81.76 g/100g for the bark. Flours showed low water and fat absorption index, high compacted and real density, and intermediate flow values by the Hausner’s ratio and Carr’s index. The hygroscopicity of the flours ranged from 5.56 g/100g for the bark and 10.31 g/100g for the fruit, influencing the solubility property. The anti-nutritional compounds do not discourage the technological application of flours since studies indicate the action of tannic and phytic acids as antioxidants. The flour shows high total phenolic compound and antioxidant activity in vitro (DPPH and FRAP methods), due to the flavonoids compounds as catechin and myricetin identified by HPLC method. Therefore, fruit flour is the best one when compared to the botanical parts, and indicated as an ingredient to improve sensory characteristics such as crispness, increased sensation, and retention of food flavor
