Saúde e Direito possibilidades de ação do Serviço Social da Saúde: uma experiência na Unidade de Internação Pediátrica do Hospital Universitário

TCC (graduação) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro Sócio Econômico, Curso de Serviço SocialEm se tratando de direitos fundamentais, em especial do direito à saúde, a atuação do Serviço Social ganha relevo nos hospitais infantis, por apresentar-se como uma "porta de entrada" viável para que a criança que necessita de tratamento médico tenha sua necessidade suprida, por meio da viabilização do acesso via encaminhamentos, já que não é raro o Estado abster-se do fornecimento de recursos prestacionais à saude Nesta perspectiva, o presente estudo tem como objetivo discutir as possibilidades de ação do assistente social nas Unidades de Internação Pediátrica, no sentido de contribuir para a viabilização do acesso aos recursos necessários para a recuperação da saúde, quando as unidades locais de saúde não proverem o acesso. Para tanto, apresentamos algumas possibilidades de ação via encaminhamento ao Conselho Tutelar, como mecanismo básico para que suas ações se traduzam em resultados observáveis e mensurávei

Storage of squashes (Cucurbita pepo L.) cv. Frontera : grown organically and traditionally

Objetivos: Determinar el período de conservación de zapallo orgánico respecto del tradicional, en dos condiciones de almacenamiento. Materiales y métodos: Zapallos variedad Frontera se limpiaron en seco y se pesaron individualmente para controlar pérdida de peso; se consignaron características externas. Para determinar deshidratación se midió humedad en la pulpa (estufa 105 °C). Para conservación, acondicionamiento en cajones de madera con viruta, en galpón (temperatura y humedad ambiente) y antecámara (15- 20 °C y 70-85 % HR). Duración 187 días. Comparación sensorial, al inicio y al final de la conservación, considerando: color, olor, sabor, retrogusto, jugosidad, textura y calidad general. Se utilizó planilla con escala mixta estructurada de 9 puntos y participaron jueces semientrenados (n = 10). Evaluación de datos por análisis de varianza = 0.05. Conclusiones: En las condiciones del ensayo, el período de conservación no debe ser superior a los 105 días por aparición de podredumbre. Por deshidratación superior al 60 %, debe ser inferior a 68 días para antecámara, 105 días para orgánicos de galpón y 105-126 días para tradicionales de galpón. Las características sensoriales iniciales de los zapallos orgánicos fueron mejores; al final se destacaron los tradicionales en galpón, luego los orgánicos en galpón y los conservados en antecámara presentaron características inferiores.This work was made in order to determine the storage time of organic squashes with respect to traditional ones, in two storage conditions. Methodology: It was used squashes cv. Frontera. They were cleaned in dry and weighed individually in order to determined weigh loss detailing their external characteristics. It was mesured pulp humidity (drying chamber 105 °C) to determine dehydration. They were stored during 187 days in wooden boxes with wood shaving, in shed (environment temperature and humidity) and antechamber (15-20 °C and 70-85 % RH). It was made sensory comparison, at the beginning and at the end of storage, considering: color, flavor, after taste, juiciness, texture and general quality. Sensory evaluation was made with a semitrained pannel (n = 10). Results were evaluated by mean of analysis of variance = 0.05. Conclusions: Storage time should not be more than 105 days by rots. By dehydration more than 60 %, the storage time should be less than 68 days in antechamber; 105 days for organic squashes in shed; and 105-126 days for traditional ones in shed. The best sensory characteristics at begining were organic squashes; at the end, the best sensory characteristics were traditional squashes in shed, then organic ones in shed and the worst were those stored in antechamber.Fil: Guinle, Viviana.

Postharvest of plum cv. angeleno : modified atmosphere and traditional refrigerated storage.

Objetivos: reducir pérdidas durante la conservación frigorífica, emplear atmósfera modificada como método suplementario a la refrigeración, alargar el período de aptitud comercial. Metodología: se trabajó con fruta acondicionada a 0±1 °C y 90±5 % HR, según las siguientes variantes: 1. testigo: 20 kg fruta a granel sin seleccionar en caja plástica; 2. granel + film PVC: 10 kg de fruta a granel en bandejas de madera más cartón corrugado recubierta con film de PVC; 3. celpack: bandejas de madera recubiertas de cartón corrugado con dos celpack de 23 frutos cada uno; 4. celpack + atmósfera modificada: ídem anterior pero cada celpack en bolsa de polietileno de baja densidad de 20 μ. A partir de los 30 días de conservación se extrajo semanalmente, durante 9 semanas, una muestra de 46 frutos, de los cuales 23 fueron analizados al momento de ser extraídos y los 23 restantes luego de 48 horas de comercialización simulada (sc). Para la evaluación estadística se aplicó análisis de la varianza con el programa SAS (Statistical Analysis System) y se determinaron las diferencias entre tratamientos con el test de Duncan. Para sabor, en cambio, se aplicó una prueba de homogeneidad de P2. La evaluación de sabor se realizó mediante degustación con panel de 5 catadores entrenados. Resultados: Los frutos tenían las siguientes características al inicio de conservación: calibre 61.4 mm, peso 117.8 g, firmeza de pulpa 3.1 kgf, sabor agridulce, contenido de sólidos solubles 17.5 °Bx, acidez 0.78 g ác. málico%g, % cubrimiento 83.69 %. Luego de la conservación frigorífica (97días): % de color de cobertura 95 %. La firmeza de la pulpa en el tratamiento celpack + bolsa se diferencia con valores más altos, media de 2.8 kgf , el resto con media 2.6 kgf. En sc la firmeza es inferior y esta disminución es menor en celpack + bolsa. Sólidos solubles, media 17.21 °Bx, en sc valores con media de un 0.3 % más. Acidez titulable: disminución progresiva, de 0.68 a 0.47 g%g al fin de conservación. Sabor: a partir de los 59 días aumentan los frutos insípidos y desagradables excepto en celpack + bolsa. Síntomas de deshidratación: a partir de los 79 días la única variante que no presenta síntomas es celpack + bolsa. Conclusiones: El acondicionamiento en celpack redujo la incidencia de ataque por mohos (fue el único tratamiento sin ataque durante 94 días); tampoco presentó sabores desagradables y su limitación en conservación se debió a la deshidratación evidente a partir de 74 días. La fruta embalada en celpack + bolsa tuvo mayores valores de resistencia a la presión y 100 % de frutos sin deshidratación a los 94 días de conservación; a partir de 80 días es evidente el ataque de mohos y frutos con sabores desagradables. Las variantes granel y granel + film presentan deterioro por deshidratación a partir de 74 días. La conservación no debería superar 80 días. Celpack + bolsa muestra mejores resultados, con mayores valores de resistencia a la presión que los otros tratamientos; con respecto al sabor, mantiene una mayor proporción de sabor dulce.Aims: To decrease postharvest losses during refrigerated storage, to use modified atmosphere as supplementary method to refrigeration, to extend shelf life.

Elegant software for investigation of electron transport systems

Abstract: this paper presents the possibilities of the software elegant for the investigation of electron transport systems. The research object is the electron accelerator Photo-CATCH. It is used to study electron sources that a later further examined by the electron accelerator S-DALINAC (Superconducting-Darmstadt-LINear-Accelerator). For the installation of a new cryogenic electron source, which is expected to extend the lifetime of the CsO-coating, the setup needed to be rearranged to be able to use the existing source as well as the new cryogenic source with one beamline. The characteristics of the beam properties of both sources were obtained using elegant. After executing all necessary simulations and analysing the results, the beamline could be readjusted, and the source put into operation

Production of Nickel‐Rich Cathodes for Lithium‐Ion Batteries from Lab to Pilot Scale under Investigation of the Process Atmosphere

The selection of an appropriate cathode active material is important for operation performance and production of high-performance lithium-ion batteries. Promising candidates are nickel-rich layered oxides like LiNi$_x$Co$_y$Mn$_z$O$_2$ (NCM, x+y+z=1) with nickel contents of ‘x’ ≥ 0.8, characterized by high electrode potential and specific capacity. However, these materials are associated with capacity fading due to their high sensitivity to moisture. Herein, two different polycrystalline NCM materials with nickel contents of 0.81 ≤ ‘x’ ≤ 0.83 and protective surface coatings are processed in dry-room atmosphere (dew point of supply air T$_D$ ≈ −65 °C) at lab scale including the slurry preparation and coating procedure. In comparison, cathodes are produced in ambient atmosphere and both variants are tested in coin cells. Moreover, processing at pilot scale in ambient atmosphere is realized successfully by continuous coating and drying of the cathodes. Relevant electrode properties such as adhesion strength, specific electrical resistance, and pore-size distribution for the individual process steps are determined, as well as the moisture uptake during calendering. Furthermore, rate capability and cycling stability are investigated in pouch cells, wherein initial specific discharge capacities of up to 190 mAh g$^{−1}$ (with regard to the cathode material mass) are achieved at 0.2C

Summary report of MINSIS workshop in Madrid

Recent developments on tau detection technologies and the construction of high intensity neutrino beams open the possibility of a high precision search for non-standard {\mu} - {\tau} flavour transition with neutrinos at short distances. The MINSIS - Main Injector Non-Standard Interaction Search- is a proposal under discussion to realize such precision measurement. This document contains the proceedings of the workshop which took place on 10-11 December 2009 in Madrid to discuss both the physics reach as well as the experimental requirements for this proposal.Comment: Proceedings of the MINSIS Workshop, Dec 10-11, 2009 in Madrid. 15 pages late

Serious bacterial infections and antibiotic prescribing in primary care: cohort study using electronic health records in the UK

Objective This study evaluated whether serious bacterial infections are more frequent at family practices with lower antibiotic prescribing rates. Design Cohort study. Setting 706 UK family practices in the Clinical Practice Research Datalink from 2002 to 2017. Participants 10.1 million registered patients with 69.3 million patient-years' follow-up. Exposures All antibiotic prescriptions, subgroups of acute and repeat antibiotic prescriptions, and proportion of antibiotic prescriptions associated with specific-coded indications. Main outcome measures First episodes of serious bacterial infections. Poisson models were fitted adjusting for age group, gender, comorbidity, deprivation, region and calendar year, with random intercepts representing family practice-specific estimates. Results The age-standardised antibiotic prescribing rate per 1000 patient-years increased from 2002 (male 423; female 621) to 2012 (male 530; female 842) before declining to 2017 (male 449; female 753). The median family practice had an antibiotic prescribing rate of 648 per 1000 patient-years with 95% range for different practices of 430-1038 antibiotic prescriptions per 1000 patient-years. Specific coded indications were recorded for 58% of antibiotic prescriptions at the median family practice, the 95% range at different family practices was from 10% to 75%. There were 139 759 first episodes of serious bacterial infection. After adjusting for covariates and the proportion of coded consultations, there was no evidence that serious bacterial infections were lower at family practices with higher total antibiotic prescribing. The adjusted rate ratio for 20% higher total antibiotic prescribing was 1.03, (95% CI 1.00 to 1.06, p=0.074). Conclusions We did not find population-level evidence that family practices with lower total antibiotic prescribing might have more frequent occurrence of serious bacterial infections overall. Improving the recording of infection episodes has potential to inform better antimicrobial stewardship in primary care.</p

Modeling intrinsic factors of inclusive engagement in Citizen Science:Insights from the participants’ survey analysis of CSI-COP

Inclusive citizen science is an emerging research topic that has been extensively studied in recent years. However, most of the previous studies focused on the development of theoretical models and practical strategies that scholars can employ to attract diverse populations to their citizen science (CS) projects. Their findings were mostly based on either conceptual ethical frameworks or empirical observations of the scholars after the completion of the specific CS project. Few studies collected socio-demographic and behavioral data of the active citizens involved in a CS project to analyze the diversity of citizens in CS. However, to the best of our knowledge, having reviewed numerous peer-reviewed papers, none of the previous studies attempted to use prospective citizen scientists’ traits to investigate intrinsic factors that may help increase the active engagement and diversity in CS. This paper presents a new inclusive citizen science engagement model based on quantitative analysis of surveys administered to 540 participants of the dedicated free informal education course ‘Your Right to Privacy Online’ (MOOC - a massive online open course) from eight countries in the EU funded project, CSI-COP (Citizen Scientists Investigating Cookies and App GDPR compliance). The surveys were filled out just after completing the training stage and before joining the project as active citizen scientists. Out of the 540 participants who completed the surveys analyzed in this study, only 170 (32%) individuals actively participated as citizen scientists in the project. Therefore, the study attempted to understand what characterizes these participants compared to those who decided to refrain from joining the project after the training stage. This study’s findings revealed several important relationships and predictors for becoming a citizen scientist based on the surveys analysis, such as age, gender, culture, education, Internet accessibility and apps usage, as well as the satisfaction with the MOOC, the mode of training and initial intentions for becoming a citizen scientist. These findings lead to the development of the empirical model for inclusive engagement in CS and enhance the understanding of the internal factors that influence individuals' intention and actual participation as citizen scientists. The devised model offers valuable insights for designing inclusive recruitment strategies, fostering positive learning experiences, addressing technological barriers, bridging the intention-engagement gap, and tailoring engagement strategies to accommodate ethnic and cultural diversity

NIK-dependent RelB Activation Defines a Unique Signaling Pathway for the Development of Vα14i NKT Cells

A defect in RelB, a member of the Rel/nuclear factor (NF)-κB family of transcription factors, affects antigen presenting cells and the formation of lymphoid organs, but its role in T lymphocyte differentiation is not well characterized. Here, we show that RelB deficiency in mice leads to a selective decrease of NKT cells. RelB must be expressed in an irradiation-resistant host cell that can be CD1d negative, indicating that the RelB expressing cell does not contribute directly to the positive selection of CD1d-dependent NKT cells. Like RelB-deficient mice, aly/aly mice with a mutation for the NF-κB–inducing kinase (NIK), have reduced NKT cell numbers. An analysis of NK1.1 and CD44 expression on NKT cells in the thymus of aly/aly mice reveals a late block in development. In vitro, we show that NIK is necessary for RelB activation upon triggering of surface receptors. This link between NIK and RelB was further demonstrated in vivo by analyzing RelB+/− × aly/+ compound heterozygous mice. After stimulation with α-GalCer, an antigen recognized by NKT cells, these compound heterozygotes had reduced responses compared with either RelB+/− or aly/+ mice. These data illustrate the complex interplay between hemopoietic and nonhemopoietic cell types for the development of NKT cells, and they demonstrate the unique requirement of NKT cells for a signaling pathway mediated by NIK activation of RelB in a thymic stromal cell

Recommendations for the quantitative analysis of landslide risk

This paper presents recommended methodologies for the quantitative analysis of landslide hazard, vulnerability and risk at different spatial scales (site-specific, local, regional and national), as well as for the verification and validation of the results. The methodologies described focus on the evaluation of the probabilities of occurrence of different landslide types with certain characteristics. Methods used to determine the spatial distribution of landslide intensity, the characterisation of the elements at risk, the assessment of the potential degree of damage and the quantification of the vulnerability of the elements at risk, and those used to perform the quantitative risk analysis are also described. The paper is intended for use by scientists and practising engineers, geologists and other landslide experts.JRC.H.5-Land Resources Managemen
